My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

In mid-August, the temperature in Hangzhou had reached 38 degrees Celsius, and there was no sign of coolness in the evening.

Lu Xiaoqiao was busy in the kitchen. The space, which had been cool before, was now as hot and stuffy as a steamer. She washed the dishes, cleaned up, closed the kitchen door, and walked into the living room. As expected, the air conditioner outside was turned off.

Her aunt's family all went to the hospital to accompany her mother-in-law to get an IV drip, so now only she and Zheng Yan were left at home.

Zheng Yan is my cousin's girlfriend, one year older than him. Not long after they started dating, she moved into my aunt's house. At first, she pretended to be reserved and lived with Lu Xiaoqiao in the small room downstairs, but less than a week later, she began to sneak upstairs and sneak into her cousin's room every night, and then quietly return in the early morning.

Tonight is Lu Xiaoqiao's last night here. Tomorrow she will move to a house rented with a colleague and good friend. Although the conditions there cannot be compared with here, it will definitely be comfortable to live in.

Thinking about helping my aunt clean the living room again, I went upstairs to the bathroom to get the mop. When I passed by my cousin's room, the door was not closed tightly. A slight cool breeze came out from the gap in the door, along with the sound of talking.

"Liu Ye and his parents accompanied his grandmother to get an injection. She's downstairs washing dishes. I don't want her to leave. If she leaves, there will be no one to do the work. But it's also annoying to have an outsider at home, living here for free."

"She relies on her good looks to seduce people. The last blind date I introduced to Sister Na was seduced by her..."

Lu Xiaoqiao had no habit of eavesdropping on other people's conversations. The voices were simply too loud and she happened to overhear them. The topic was about herself, and the content of the conversation was becoming increasingly outrageous.

She wanted to raise her hand to open the door, but when she thought about the consequences of her going in, which would put her aunt in a dilemma, she slowly withdrew her hand that was about to push the door open.

Take a deep breath, forget it! It's the last night anyway. Even if I run into her during the day, we're not in the same department after all. Staying away from her will help me out of sight and out of mind.

With my mind made up, I turned around and walked downstairs.

As soon as he restarted the air conditioner in the living room, he heard a "woooo" sound coming from the direction of the balcony. Thinking of the dumplings temporarily placed outside the balcony, Lu Xiaoqiao hurriedly put down the broom in his hand, turned the door handle, and pushed open the balcony door.

The door of the cage used to hold Tuanzi was actually open. The cooling ice pad that Lu Xiaoqiao bought for it was still inside, but Tuanzi's little figure was nowhere to be seen.

"woohoo"

Looking up in the direction of the voice, Lu Xiaoqiao's heart almost jumped out of her throat.

There was a tiny puppy standing on the air conditioner's external unit. Frightened by the noise from the machine, it was spinning around and trying to jump away. However, the seven-story height below the machine was like a bottomless abyss for its tiny body.

Lu Xiaoqiao slowly moved towards it, carefully extended her hand, and called out softly, "Don't be afraid, Tuanzi, come here."

Even though they had only been together for a few days, the little guy knew who was good to him. He walked closer and licked Lu Xiaoqiao's hand.

I took Tuanzi down, confirmed that he was not injured, and then gently placed him in the cage.

It is impossible for such a small puppy to run to such a high external machine by itself. It is obvious who did it. Lu Xiaoqiao originally thought that he could just endure it for the last night.

However, at this moment, she couldn't bear it anymore!

She took the rubber band off her wrist and tied her hair tightly into a high ponytail.

My aunt always says that girls look gentle when they don’t tie their hair up, and that she looks better with her hair down. She usually lets her hair down.

But at this time, she was afraid that it would affect her performance.

Lu Xiaoqiao came to the second floor. The door of the room was still not closed tightly. Zheng Yan was still on the phone, but her posture had changed from sitting to lying lazily on the bed. The content of the conversation was still about her.

"boom!"

Lu Xiaoqiao kicked the door open.

Zheng Yan, who was still on the phone inside the room, was startled by the sudden voice: "Are you sick? You scared me."

"Why didn't you scare me to death?"

Adhering to the principle of not wrongly accusing good people, Lu Xiaoqiao still asked politely: "Did you put the dumpling up there? Why did you do that?"

Zheng Yan sat up from the bed, hung up the phone which showed it was still on a call, and looked up with contempt and arrogance in her eyes.

"I put it there, so what? I was just teasing it."

"It's so high, you know the consequences of it falling."

"So what? It's just a dog. If it falls, it falls! I didn't put you up there...ah!"

There was no apology or guilt, and Lu Xiaoqiao couldn't understand where her self-righteousness came from.

Before she could finish, Lu Xiaoqiao took a few steps forward, grabbed Zheng Yan's hair, and with his other hand, grabbed her arm and dragged her out of the room.

"Tease it? Okay, I'm happy today, so I'll tease you too."

The two of them pulled each other to the door. Zheng Yan's free hand held on to the door frame tightly and she screamed and threatened Lu Xiaoqiao.

"Ah! Ah, Lu Xiaoqiao, let go of me! If you dare to do this to me, I'll have Liu Ye fire you. I won't let you off easily."

Zheng Yan struggled to get Lu Xiaoqiao to let go, but because her hair was being pulled by Lu Xiaoqiao, she couldn't pull her hair and her attention was only focused on the hands that were pulling her.

The sudden stinging pain made Lu Xiaoqiao loosen her grip for a moment. She took a quick glance at the back of her hand and forearm, then turned around and grabbed Zheng Yan, who was trying to run. She then raised her leg to trip her, sat on her, and held her hands down with her hands.

"Oh! Fire me? Fine! Go ahead and tell me. It'll be a great opportunity for that blind Liu Ye to see the true face of the woman he loves. Isn't it tiring for you to wear a 'mask' every day? I'm tired for you."

Sometimes, Lu Xiaoqiao had to admit that Zheng Yan was a master at playing one thing in front of people and another behind their backs.

For example, in front of her aunt's family, she would sweetly follow Liu Ye and call herself Sister Xiao Qiao, but when there was no one around, she would just call her by her name.

Every time they fought to do the housework, after my aunt and the others went back to their rooms, I would throw the rag and throw all the housework to Lu Xiaoqiao, and command her to do it faster.

The reason why Lu Xiaoqiao kept silent was that she was afraid of causing trouble for her aunt. It was okay for her to do more housework, but if something she said affected the two people who were in love, she would be the one who was wrong no matter how right she was. After all, this was not her home.

I wanted to drag her to the balcony to scare her, but I thought about the trouble that would happen if the neighbors heard the noise. In serious cases, they might even call the police and take her to the police station. She was not crazy enough to hurt the enemy and herself just to teach a little villain a lesson.

Finally, they dragged her into the bathroom, held Zheng Yan down to prevent her from moving, and used the shower head to soak her from head to toe, alternating between hot and cold water. At first, she struggled a few times, but later she just sat there, hugged her legs tightly with her arms, buried her head between her knees, and sobbed.

Lu Xiaoqiao turned off the valve, breathing a little faster and panting slightly, then she put down the shower head and drained the water from her slippers that had gotten wet when she showered Zheng Yan.

He glanced at Zheng Yan who was still crying and chuckled, "Why are you crying? I was just teasing you."

After hearing what she said, Zheng Yan cried even louder!

Lu Xiaoqiao frowned and warned, "Sometimes people shouldn't go too far. I don't cause trouble, but that doesn't mean I'm afraid of it. You can ask Liu Ye why I came to Hangzhou to study when I was a child."
