The lips are soft, warm and moist.
The falling warm touch lasted for two or three seconds, and it was undeniable.It's not about kissing with the trend, just trying the temperature of the forehead, just getting close to it and sticking it lightly.
Qiao Yan bit the sweet candy in his mouth and remained motionless.
It's a bit like when I was a child, but the elders in the past didn't stick the stickers with their mouths, but moved closer to the face and chin, so as to compare the temperature difference with the children by themselves.
I don't know if it's useful or not, but that's about it.
Zhou Xiyun is not good at learning skills, he can only superficially, and has not grasped the essence. It is obvious that he has confused his childhood memories and messed around without understanding anything.
Qiao Yan opened and closed his lips, wanting to remind this person that he didn't find the right way, but before the words reached his throat, he forced himself to suppress them, so as not to disturb the current harmonious atmosphere.
Forget it, just make a mistake, it doesn't make much difference where you use it.
In the past, Miss Zhou was all focused on reading, so she would not pay attention to the details of life. This time, she should not be too picky, otherwise she will hit people more.
The details are not important, the form is there.
Qiao Yan's self-hypnosis was supposed to be receiving care without any distracting thoughts.When Zhou Xiyun let go of herself, she pulled the quilt to cover her legs, rubbed her uncomfortable nose, and said feigning displeasure, "Why are you just like my mother, so old-fashioned."
Zhou Xiyun didn't answer these words, just said: "No more burning."
Qiao Yan said, "I took my temperature in half an hour. Didn't I tell you everything? It's already healed."
Only then did Zhou Xiyun pick up on what was said just now, and asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Does Aunt know that you said she is vulgar?"
Qiao Yan was very guarded, and the mortal enemy gene in his bones was the cause, and he immediately denied it: "I never said that, don't even try to sue me, it was you who said it."
Zhou Xiyun scratched her face with his fingers, "Why is it that I want to sue you again?"
Qiao Yan asked back, "Didn't you mean that?"
Zhou Xiyun said, "No."
"I'm not fooling you, I won't be fooled." Qiao Yan replied, Gabeng bit the sugar ball into pieces and chewed, "Maybe you turned around and went to find my mother."
Zhou Xiyun couldn't talk about this nonsense, so he said: "No."
In the evening, the sky was golden, and the afterglow crawled into the room. The brilliant light shone on the quilt, and also formed a halo of halo around Qiao Yan.The two bickered and sat leaning against each other for a while. Zhou Xiyun stayed in the room with a good temper and chatted with Qiao Yan.
Staying at home when sick is rather boring. Playing too much on mobile phones and computers is not good for your eyes, and it’s sad to lie in bed for a long time. It’s good to have a company, at least you can pass the time with each other.
Grandma came in to get a bowl after a while, to see if Qiao Yan had finished drinking the medicine, and when she saw that the bowl was empty, she took it away with a smile, and said, "One bucket of bowl a day, just drink it three times."
Qiao Yan hurriedly lulled the old man out, and before she could promise to drink, she turned her head and whispered to Zhou Xiyun, "Take that thing away when you go downstairs, otherwise my grandma will be angry for days if they are found out."
Zhou Xiyun hummed, "I know."
Grandma went downstairs, and while Xu Ziqing was off work, she went to the kitchen to cook the rice, then washed two vegetables and fried them for Qiao Yan.
The old man is diligent and agile. Although he staggers and wobbles when he walks, he is still unambiguous in his work.Grandma didn't go upstairs at the back, and didn't bother the two young people chatting, and didn't call for someone until it was time to eat.
And before the meal, when Xu Ziqing didn't come back, the door of the room on the second floor was locked, and the two inside were still talking to each other as usual. Qiao Yan asked about Zhou Xiyun's work, and asked Zhou Xiyun to take another handful of candy tomorrow After returning, it wasn't long before Qiao Yan was making trouble one-sidedly, teasing each other in a panic, and then they both fell on the bed.
There is no reason to change after a while.
In the final analysis, Qiao was the first to cause trouble, so he couldn't sit still, so he had to slap Zhou Xiyun twice.Zhou Xiyun did whatever he wanted, and wrapped her up in the quilt until he became impatient, not giving her a chance to resist.
After making a fuss, Qiao Yan covered her eyes with a layer of cloth, and Zhou Xiyun grabbed her hand and pressed it on top of her head, leaning on the side of her neck.Qiao Yan moaned, "My mother is coming back." Zhou Xiyun said, "My aunt usually gets home at seven, which is still early."
"She gets off work after five o'clock, and sometimes she can be here no later than 06:30." "I have to work overtime today." Qiao Yan asked, "How do you know?" Zhou Xiyun continued to clean her up without answering.
She let out a low moan, and then kicked Zhou Xiyun's ankle.
I didn't really do anything next, and the behavior that was too far away didn't happen, and it was still appropriate.
After all, there is grandma downstairs, which is too ridiculous and inappropriate. Besides, Xu Ziqing will come back at any time, and the overtime hours will not be very long, so there is no guarantee that she will show up at any time.
Qiao Yan rolled around on the bed, begging for mercy for a while, covering his stomach for joy, his tied hair was messed up, and he lost his image.In the end Zhou Xiyun had to sit on his lap with her in his arms, and tidy up the clothes for the slacker so that the elders would not be confused when they saw her.
Xu Ziqing didn't get home until [-]:[-], and worked an extra hour at the company, so the work progressed pretty smoothly at the end of the day.Ms. Xu returned home with a few packed hot and cold dishes, but they were not for Qiao Yan or grandma, but she thought that Zhou Xiyun and Zhou Huiwen were going to have dinner together here, thinking that grandma couldn't cook a few dishes , so simply buy them all from outside to save the trouble of cooking.
Only after the two families arrived, Qiao Yan knew that Zhou Xiyun would stay, and thought that this person would come back to the opposite side by dinner time.She sneakily said, "You didn't tell me earlier."
Zhou Xiyun replied, "You didn't ask."
This meal was due to Zhou Xiyun yesterday, and Xu Ziqing was grateful to this person for helping to take care of his daughter, which is why he called for a gathering.
It's no wonder that Zhou Xiyun knew that Xu Ziqing would work overtime. This was what Xu Ziqing said personally yesterday, and Qiao Yan was the only one who didn't know.
With their parents present, Qiao Yan and Zhou Xiyun behaved quite normally, no different from usual, their attitudes and behaviors were not intimate, and they didn't talk much at the table.
Qiao Yan wanted to eat spicy braised vegetables, but Xu Ziqing refused to let her eat it, saying that her voice was already hoarse, and eating spicy food would make her feel even worse.Qiao Yan didn't listen, and said: "One mouthful or two won't affect it, how could it be such an exaggeration."
Xu Ziqing still refused and beat her paw.
Zhou Xiyun cooperatively opened the stewed vegetables, and moved the lotus white and boiled cabbage hearts, which were so light that you couldn't see much oily flowers.Qiao Yan persisted in poking the rice in Zhai's bowl with his chopsticks, and threw the knife resentfully, and stepped on Zhou Xiyun under the cover of the table.Zhou Xiyun didn't cry out in pain, and without changing his face, he picked up a large chopstick and put choy sum in her bowl.
Qiao Yan's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably, and he just wanted to put all the food in the bowl into this man's hands, but he had no guts to say a word.
It is not advisable to waste food. If you really do that, Ms. Xu will definitely be so angry that she will beat someone with a stick.
The closeness in the evening did not delay the mutual "injury" between the two of them, and this will never change.
Qiao Yan couldn't change the fact that he could only eat side dishes, so he stepped on Zhou Xiyun under the table several times.Of course, it's not that you step on it cruelly, just tap your toes without exerting any force.
Zhou Xiyun had no troubles throughout the whole process. He ate cold and spicy tripe, boiled pork slices, and pepper fish nuggets, all of which were delicious and tempting.It was obvious that he was against him silently, and deliberately ate it for someone to see.
Qiao Yan took a big mouthful of white rice and stared at Zhou Xiyun without blinking.
The elders took it for granted that they didn't care about the two of them, especially the grandma, who could help Zhou Xiyun pick up two lumps of ribs halfway, and kindly told her to eat more. "You young people are under a lot of work pressure. Eat enough to work hard tomorrow."
The ribs are sauce-flavored, not spicy.
There were not a few pieces left on the table, and the plate was full of soft and rotten potatoes.Zhou Xiyun put the ribs in Qiao Yan's hands, and gave them to the air bag, and the air bag stopped, and he ate the ribs honestly.
Patients need to rest, staying up late is not good for the body.
This day, Qiao Yan went to bed earlier than usual, and lay down at 09:30. An Sheng closed his eyes and rested his mind to prepare for sleep.Zhou Xiyun stayed downstairs and didn't follow.
At that time, grandma had already gone upstairs, and the old man's room was next to Qiao Yan. The two of them could no longer be like that during the day.Grandma is just getting old, her eyes are not blurry, her ears are not bad, so how can I hide something from her.
Perhaps it was thanks to the fight in the afternoon that Qiao Yan fell asleep quickly tonight and had a good night's sleep.
The recovery period after a high fever takes a certain amount of time. It is not a complete cure once the fever subsides. In fact, other symptoms still appear later, such as mild cough, persistent nasal congestion, and easy chills... The power of an illness is not small. Immunity was not good for a while.
Qiao Yan needed to go to Kafa to work, so she had to pass, but both Xu Ziqing and her grandmother asked her to go back to the West Well Compound at night, so that the two elders could take care of her.Qiao Yan didn't object and agreed.
In the store, Rong Yin was more concerned about Qiao Yan's partner, and suggested that she go back to rest for two more days, and Rong Yin can handle it alone here.Qiao Yan didn't, he insisted on working, and he was able to share what he could.
The business after the Dragon Boat Festival this year is not easy to do, and the orders of Kafa are less than last year, and there is no upward trend.
Rong Yin told Qiao Yan that two brand chain milk tea shops seem to have settled near the Financial City, and another shop similar to Kafa has opened. It also mainly sells coffee and other drinks as well as desserts and flowers. The theme style is different in all aspects. It is a replica of kaffa, almost like a branch.
The name of that store reads similar to Kafa, called "Kaffa". At first glance, it sounds the same, and the location of the former store is more favorable. It is located next to the intersection of the subway station, not far from Yifeng Group. Surrounded by high-rise buildings, it is extremely convenient for working parties to buy a drink on the way to and from get off work.
The name of the shop "Kaffa" was chosen by Qiao Yan. It was not called this at first. The name of the shop at the beginning was "KAFFA", which refers to the name of a place where the coffee tree may be found first, KAFFA in Ethiopia, which means their shop. It mainly sells coffee, but then Qiao Yan thought that the name had no special features, and it was not as pleasing to the eye as Chinese, so he made a transliteration of "Kaffa", which instantly became taller and more memorable at a glance.
Now that the competitor is named "Cafa", I don't know if it is a coincidence or what.
Rong Yintuo’s friend went to that store and found that the business model and decoration of “Cafa” are quite similar to their own store. Even the two stores are two-storey buildings, but the store of “Cafa” is a building. The first and second floors are not small bungalows.
The opponent's intentions are quite obvious, and they are all trying to provoke this side, but Kafa's side can't do much, because the similarity is only a similarity in feeling, and there is still a big deviation in the details of the two stores.
For example, "Kaffa" only sells coffee, which is not as complicated as Kafa. For example, "Kaffa" intends to create a nature-themed business style. Many things are purely handmade with traditional crafts, claiming to combine foreign food with national style.
Rong Yin didn't understand these bells and whistles at all, so he just told Qiao Yan about it, and didn't really care about it in his heart.
There are countless potential opponents for doing business. The Kafa shop is small and its strength is so little. It is impossible to openly fight against them.
There are many double-storey drink shops selling flowers in the world, and it's not their original creation. At this time, there is nothing they can do except calmly deal with it.
Qiao Yan also looked down on him, no matter what happens, everyone grabs customers according to their ability, and soldiers come to cover up the water and soil, it's just that big of a deal.
The two bosses are highly unified in this regard, and their ideas coincide with each other.I don't like to fight, just go with the situation.
Qiao Yan and Rong Yin chatted about the Dragon Boat Festival and shared their respective holidays.
Rong Yin's Dragon Boat Festival was very meaningful. She went out to be a volunteer, visited children in an orphanage, and donated some money to a certain village.Rong Yin planned to go to the village for a field trip on the National Day, and was going to donate some supplies there. Unlike Qiao Yan, she lived on her mortgage. Most of the money she earned in recent years was saved, and she basically didn't spend it.
Qiao Yan talked about Qi Muzhen's experience, but still didn't mention Zhou Xiyun.She beat around the bush and asked Rong Yin a few strange questions, mostly about homosexuality, but in a more tactful manner.
Rong Yin answered everything. With the experience of the previous round, this time he will not ask why.
For the next week, I ran on both sides, Kafa during the day, and Xijing Compound at night, working to earn money while recuperating.
The cough lasted for two days, and after it gradually improved, it was fine. The most helpless thing was that my throat was uncomfortable, and my voice became hoarse, as if it had been polished by sandpaper, and it tended to get worse.Qiao Yan took throat lozenges every day, but it didn't help. After three or four days, he became half-mute, and it was difficult to speak aloud.
Qiao Yan went to the hospital again, and the doctor said that it was just an inflammation, and he would be fine after talking less, drinking more water and taking some medicine.
Xu Ziqing was very worried, and ordered Qiao Yan not to speak unless necessary, and made her drink the soup that had been cooking for several days to moisten her throat.
Qiao Yan pretended to be obedient on the surface, but he would still secretly talk to Zhou Xiyun in private, even if the other party didn't respond much, he couldn't close his mouth when he opened it.
And, she still didn't forget to ask for the debt, calling Zhou Xiyun's ear to pay back the money every day.
After being tortured to the point where she couldn't stand it, Zhou Xiyun stuffed her with some cash.She counted and said in a rough male duck voice: "It's still fifty cents short." Zhou Xiyun said: "Not anymore."
She reached into Zhou Xiyun's clothes pocket and trouser pocket, "Didn't you just get paid?" Zhou Xiyun explained, "It was borrowed again."
If you have no money, you have no money, not even a dime, and you can't find it.
Qiao Yan fumbled here and there with his hand, but in the end he was still asking for trouble.
Zhou Xiyun held her up with his arms in his arms, and she twisted Zhou Xiyun, "What are you doing..." Zhou Xiyun buried her down and bit her. She was in pain, but she endured the pain and kept silent, not daring to make a single movement.
"Zhou Gou." She cursed angrily, and pulled Zhou Xiyun's hair with her hands, but she didn't use much force, and carefully pulled at the part where the hair was curled up with her fingers, which was regarded as revenge.
Zhou Xiyun tightly clamped her waist and back, sniffed her neck lightly with the tip of his nose, and pressed his lips against her throat.Gentle, coveting and deadly, it would bite through her white and tender skin at any time.
Qiao Yan thinks there is something wrong with this person, like a rational and calm pervert, who can't be stopped when he gets angry, but other than that, he is good, calm, restrained, quiet in speaking and doing things, the aura of Yujie and goddess Faner Two meters eight.
"Qiao Yan..." Zhou Xiyun kept calling her name in a low voice.
Qiao Yan covered the man's mouth and said fiercely, "Don't call me, I can't see you in front of you, can you?" He was afraid that someone downstairs would hear him if he came up suddenly, so his whole body was tense.
It's clear that he didn't do anything too outrageous, but he was terrified to death.
Whenever the other party makes any random move, he will be nervous, always worried that the door will be opened suddenly.
Qiao Yan said, "You are not allowed to come tomorrow."
Zhou Xiyun didn't respond, choosing not to hear.
This person still showed up the next night as usual, not only did he come, but he also brought a round thing - a porcelain doll in a short white vest and floral pants, not too ugly, with very hot eyes.
Zhou Xiyun put the porcelain doll on the table and said, "It's exactly the same as when you were a child."
Qiao Yanshu panicked and refused to admit it.
Zhou Xiyun said: "It's the first time I saw you, you just dressed like this, the same style."
Qiao Yan denied that she felt that she was a cute and cute girl when she was young, and it was absolutely impossible for her to be so rough and wear such retro underpants.
Some people have [-]-fold filter blessings on themselves, beautifying the previous embarrassing things to nothing, completely forgetting that the first time they met Zhou Xiyun, she was wearing this outfit and sitting barefoot playing in the mud under the bamboo forest At that time, Zhou Huiwen brought Zhou Xiyun here to meet people. When she saw Zhou Xiyun in a small white skirt, she rushed up to hug him. In the end, she rubbed Zhou Xiyun's dirty mud, and she was so cheeky that she didn't let go, making him cry on the spot .
Zhou Huiwen also took pictures, as evidenced by the pictures.
"Whoever hugged you, don't slander others." Qiao Yan insisted.
Zhou Xiyun turned the porcelain doll so that it faced the head of the bed.
Qiao Yan rubbed his arms, "Turn away, turn away, it's so ugly, I'm afraid I'll wake up in the middle of the night and see nightmares."
Xu Ziqing passed by the door, peeked in, saw the porcelain doll, stood outside and said, "Where did you buy it? Why is it so similar to Qiao Qiao when she was a child?"
Qiao Yan felt like a stick in his throat, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Zhou Xiyun smiled lightly and replied, "I bought it from a gift shop on the street."
"The workmanship is good, and it looks pleasing to the eye." Xu Ziqing said, leaving a comment before walking away.
As the footsteps faded away, Qiao Yan got up and wanted to find someone to settle the score, while Zhou Xiyun locked the door calmly.There was a lot of tossing in the room.
Xu Ziqing and grandma just regarded it as another conflict and fight, knowing that the child will not be too modest when he grows up, so they will not intervene.
Halfway through, the lights in the house were turned off, and the room was pitch black.
Qiao Yan was pressed down and couldn't move on the bed. She struggled dissatisfied, until she touched the back of her waist with one hand, and then hummed softly.
Zhou Xiyun turned her around and faced him.
Her attitude was faster than flipping through a book, and she immediately conceded: "Okay, let's stop making trouble..."
But it's too late and useless.
