Chapter 4 (2/2)
”Help o to the corner store and buy a bottle of water” He said with a s sun
Before I could respond, he took three steps and then two steps, and ran down the stairs (T/N:where three worth of strides becomes two)
I still went to the corner store, torn between Yi Li water and Nongfu Spring water for quite a while but eventually picked Nongfu Spring as it is 50 cents cheaper
There were a lot of girls at the sides of the basketball court, I even saw Li Wei She was holding a bottle of Mai Dong which isby two and a half bucks
During halfti Chen so that she could hand over her drink, I blankly followed her fro speed, scurrying like she’s about to fly
Jiang Chen didn’t accept her drink, instead, he gave lance and said a bit aardly, “I already told Chen Xiaoxi to bring me water”
”I bought a sports drink with added electrolytes If not you then who else would be able to drink it, quite wasteful” Then she smiled softly and tenderly
I thought I couldn’t let her be this e Chen’s hands and gave the froulp, and wiped : “Not wasted, not wasted I just ran over from the corner store and sweated a lot, thank you very much”
She bowed her head in sha about that very shy lotus flower and so on I like reading that poem, it's truly a masterpiece
”Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi!” My mom's continuous shouts roused me from my shy lotus flower drea loud noises is prohibited in the hospital”
Myabout losing face in your sleep”
”What did I say?” I asked her while reunk at the corner of my eyes
”Lotus, shy or so” She replied
”'The tenderness when you bend your head low, is like a lotus flower too shy to stand the cool blow’ A poem by Xu Zhimo Indeed, our Xiaoxi is like ave his input while lying on the hospital bed, looking immensely proud
I turned to look at hie & literature teacher in high school, she asked e’”
My dad's face suddenly turned black, ”This is not 'Second Farewell to Cae'! This is 'Sayonara'!” (T/N: Both are poems by Xu Zhimo)
My zi, bangzi
(T/N: The pinyin for Jang Nara is Zhang Na La while Sayonara is Sha Yang Na La so her , sturdy stick in Chinese, a ter the japanese invasion in China, they give Koreans stick instead of guns to beat the Chinese with, hence the origin of the term)
I looked at ht, she puffed out her old chest, “Ever since our home has been installed with the internet, the housewife has become liberated”
As atied in to Tianya Club I discovered that I actually replied to a lot of foruuys I thought that I was honestly confronting , only to find out later on that I accidentally enabled our ho in to Tianya The saddest thing in the world that nothing can surpass is to have a Tianya Clubmeans someone who reads forum posts but never replies or colish is a popular internet forum site)
After eating lunch,of fruit , and forced ratitude I think that by sentiht to earnestly and seriously thank Jiang Chen, so I went out and carried the large bag of fruits
When I got to the doctor’s office, only then did I begin to get a bit nervous This is Jiang Chen and I's exclusive and first officialeach other in over the last 3 years
I knocked on the door, the reply co from the inside was, “Please co Chen buried in his desk writing on soive me a quick look, and said dully, “Find a chair to sit on”
As an ex-girlfriend, in the face of such a generous ex-boyfriend, I feel i generous but to describe so the slight cautious)
I placed the bag of fruits on the table, pulled a chair to sit face-to-face from him across the table, and pleasantly said, “Mysome fruits for you”
He looked at the bag of fruits and said, “Thank auntie for , his condition is very stable I reckon that he can be discharged in two or three days He can coet his stitches removed”
When he was done talking, he bowed his head down to write sos with an “I am very busy” look I aardly sat for around two ot up to leave, and also to conveniently express ratefulness to him In the end, I hypocritically and politely said the lines, “Thank you for your help this time, I really don’t kno to repay you”
He actually stopped twirling his pen, sirlfriend”
I carefully observed his expression, he really wasn’t joking I feel depressed This action of asking an ex-girlfriend to introduce a new girlfriend is a bit inhumane Like when you’re fired, your boss would still write you a recoive you the answers; or when re, you’d ask your ex-wife to be one of the bridesmaids……
All sorts of feelings elling up in reat does he think my personality really is……
I heaved a deep sigh, and gave hiirlfriend do you want?”
He sized ht in h ood” Otherwise, “Actually, I’ve never forgotten you…”
“A little taller, and thinner than you would be good enough” He said
My unrequited, little precious heart quickly resu, I sh, I'll help you look around”
The pen on his hand irled beautifully between his fingers as he said, ”Then, I'll thank you in advance”
