meet again

The temperature of the oil in the pot rose, Lin Ting put the well-baked fish fillets into the pot little by little.

Xin Ran leaned against the door of the kitchen with a cup in her hand, watching the oil splashing out of the pot, and frowned.

"The fish I bought have been stored in the refrigerator for a long time. I was worried that the stew would not taste good, so I cooked it in a different way." Ting Lin smiled back at her, quickly fished out the fish fillets from the pot, and looked at the fish. He glanced at the rice cooker, then looked back at Xin Ran: "Today's dishes are a little short, if you have something else you want to eat, can you order some takeaway?"

Xin Ran glanced at the fried golden fish fillets, and shook her head. She watched Lin Ting skillfully remove the oil from the pan, then continued to work, and finally couldn't help asking curiously: "What is your cooking skill? Where did you learn it?"

"I haven't learned anything about it before. You'll get used to it if you cook too much." Lin listened to the words, then fried the bottom ingredients in the pot, added a little boiling water, covered the pot and waited for the soup to thicken.

Xin Ran let out an oh, then turned and left.

Lin Ting blinked her eyes, and then came back to watch the flames licking the bottom of the pot, and the little bit of soup boiled quickly.

She speeded up the movements of her hands, completed the last few procedures, and was ready to serve dinner.

Xin Ran looked at the stewed fish on the table emitting bursts of aroma, hesitated for a moment, and moved his chopsticks.Lin Ting turned around and smiled secretly, she guessed that this person must have not eaten, at least he did not eat well.

Thinking of the cold hands that he accidentally touched outside the door just now, Lin Ting felt a little distressed, and went into the kitchen to bring out the soup. When he came out, he saw Xin Ran looking at the fish in the pot with a tangled expression. Know to eat or not to eat.

"What's wrong?" She remembered that Xin Ran couldn't eat spicy food...

"It will get stuck." Xin Ran still put down the chopsticks.

Lin Ting coughed, put the soup in front of Xin Ran, and handed her a small bowl of rice.Then he sat down and picked up a few fish fillets with chopsticks: "These pieces should have no thorns."

She handed the bowl to Xin Ran, and then said helplessly: "Next time you want to eat fish, I'll buy the fish with less thorns. If it doesn't work, you can buy bigger ones. The fish is good."

Xin Ran didn't answer the conversation either, but just took the bowl, took a sip, his eyes lit up slightly, then he glanced at Lin Ting, then turned his head and began to eat seriously.

Lin Ting's gaze was always on her. How could such a small gesture escape her eyes? A smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and she stretched out her chopsticks to taste the fish on the table. Well, it was really delicious.

If only every day in the future could be like this.

The winter nights are extremely long. Although it's only after eight o'clock after dinner, the sky outside the window is already pitch black.Lin Ting looked at Xin Ran who was packing up his things and was about to leave, but couldn't help but said, "Well, I'll see you off."

Xin Ran shook his head: "No need."

Lin Ting scratched his hair: "Well, at home...there is no salt at home, I just went to the supermarket to buy a bag."

Xin Ran paused for a while, and finally pulled out the loose ponytail covered in the scarf, then looked at Lin Ting: "Go and change."

Lin Ting immediately burst into a smile, nodded and rushed into the bedroom, changed into a thicker dress, then ran out and looked at Xin Ran who was still standing in the living room: "Let's go."

The snow that fell last night quickly disappeared, and the ground was as dry as if the change of sky last night had never happened. But in Lin Ting's heart, she knew that many things changed that night. At least, she and Xin Ran, or rather, she can no longer just use her status as a friend to cover up Xin Ran.

Obviously she was still desperate last night, that this person would be far away from her life again, but today, she walked on this road side by side with Xin Ran.

The cool air was blowing on his cheeks, Lin Ting turned his head and glanced at Xin Ran who was walking beside him, and took a deep breath, letting the coolness penetrate into his heart.

"Is it cold?" Xin Ran glanced at her: "If you catch a cold again, just wait."

Lin Ting shook his head and took out his hands from the thick coat: "It's not cold at all."

Xin Ran glanced at her, then gently held her.

Lin Ting smiled, and those cold hands finally had a little warmth at the moment. Although the temperature was still a little lower than that of a person with a hot constitution like hers, it was not as cold as it was at the beginning.

Xin Ran could feel the warmth in Lin Ting's palm, she was holding her hand, but she felt that a place in her heart was slightly burned, that feeling startled her, and subconsciously withdrew her hand.

Lin Ting stopped walking.

Xin Ran opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but couldn't say it.

"Xin Ran, look, it's up to you to hold it up, and it's up to you to let it go." Lin Ting gritted his teeth, trying not to make his voice tremble: "That's why I'm really flustered."

"But," Lin Ting stood up straight, facing Xin Ran's slightly surprised eyes, she dodged slightly, but quickly turned her gaze back: "But I still want to tell you... , I like..."

As if his heart was going to jump into his throat, the choked Lin Ting also stuttered, but even so, Lin Ting was still trying to suppress himself, not to let himself look too embarrassed: "I like..."

Seeing Lin Ting like this, Xin Ran suddenly took a step forward, bringing the distance between her and Lin Ting closer, so close that she could hear the restless beating of the opposite heart.

Lin Ting looked at Xin Ran's star-like eyes. Obviously, this person's indifference always ignites hope that cannot be extinguished in her heart. She closed her eyes, opened them quickly, and looked at the person in front of her. People say: "I like you, Xin Ran, I really like you, I like you very much..."

Xin Ran chuckled, she reached out and took off the scarf that Lin Ting gave her around her neck.

Lin Ting suddenly felt her heart being torn apart by something, but before she realized it was a pain, Xin Ran had already unwrapped half of the folded scarf and wrapped it around her neck, and wrapped the other half around her neck. neck.

She looked at Lin Ting and asked, "You know, we are all women, right?"

Lin Ting felt that her brain seemed to have been scrapped. She just nodded subconsciously after hearing the question.

"Let's go." Xin Ran took the dull person beside him and continued to walk forward.

Lin Ting felt the traction on his hands and neck, and automatically stepped forward to follow Xin Ran, blinking his eyes several times before realizing: "Where are you going?"

"Where are you going?" Xin Ran turned to look at her, "Buy salt."

"Huh? Buy, buy salt?" Lin Ting repeated, and then quickly came back to his senses: "That, that... what you mean... is what I thought, did you mean that?"

Xin Ran was silent for a while.

Lin Ting's heart arose again, but following Xin Ran's footsteps, he was never willing to stop.

"Listen Lin, I will only say this once." Xin Ran paused for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Holding hands is a matter between two people, and it can never be decided by one person."
