Chapter 18 Nonsense
Yu Jinghai put the two pieces of chocolate into the palm of his hand, stroked them, then peeled off the wrapping paper, and ate them all on the spot.
It is sweet at the entrance, and the mellow taste of wine melts along the lips and tongue, softening the whole mouth.
"Delicious." Yu Jinghai smacked his lips, his eyes somewhat surprised, and then he showed a sincere smile to Zhou Xi, "White and... red?"
"Yeah," Zhou Xi nodded, "I prefer Jiu Xin."
Yu Jinghai's eyes lit up suddenly, he gritted his teeth, chewed the remaining chocolate in his mouth, swallowed it, and then said in a low voice, "It tastes really good together."
At this time, the class bell rang in the distance.
School has already started today, and Zhou Xi, who teaches the main subject of Chinese, has a class on the first day.
Zhou Xi then took a lesson plan and walked out of the office with Yu Jinghai.
The two hadn't gone far when Zhou Xi suddenly remembered something and stopped, "Wait, I forgot to bring you the massager I bought for you."
"Massager? You bought it for me?" Yu Jinghai followed him back in a daze, "Why did you buy me that thing?"
"Aren't you recovering?" Zhou Xi explained with a smile, "The orthopedic doctor I know said that a massager would help, so I bought one, and you can see if it works."
"It's too expensive, I'll just follow my doctor for treatment." Yu Jinghai stretched out his hand to stop him, "Don't take it, it will delay your class later."
"It won't waste much time. You've bought everything, so you can use it," Zhou Xiwen said, "Besides, it's inconvenient to return the ones you bought from abroad."
"You care more about my legs than I do, and you can buy a massager." Yu Jinghai whispered at him for his carelessness, but there was clearly a cheerful smile on his face.
"That's it," Zhou Xi also laughed, "Who is my brother Yu, I must pay attention."
The two talked poorly to each other, and went back to the office of the language group together.
As soon as we reached the door of the office, we heard discussions inside.
"...Hey, did you hear that just now? It's those two wine-flavored chocolates. I just said that they have something to do. It's so obvious. It must be true, right?"
"Can't you? Team leader and brother Yu? Those are people from two worlds, do you think they are worthy?"
"What use do I think? Of course I don't think he deserves it. No matter how nice Brother Yu is, it's impossible for the team leader to have a relationship with him."
"You young people just like to gossip, and there is no such thing as a shadow. The two of you just have friendship."
"Xiao Zhou's temper, he will not hide it. Xiao Yu, he only had a blind date with a girl a while ago, and he likes girls."
"Old Yu's character is nothing to talk about, but I don't believe you if you say you're with our team leader. It's really impossible, it's impossible to get away with it."
A few people were chatting nonsense, and suddenly there were two "clicks, clicks" at the door.
I saw Zhou Xi standing by the door, tapping on the door panel with her knuckles.
All the people inside shut their mouths suddenly, and looked at him, and Yu Jinghai behind him with a little embarrassment.
Yu Jinghai's expression was visibly stiff, but Zhou Xi was not affected at all, with a faint smile still on his face.
It seemed to him that those words were just casual jokes from his colleagues, and there was no need to take them seriously, after all, he didn't say anything too much.
Zhou Xi's behavior in this group has always been gentle, which all depends on his good temper, high emotional intelligence, can take jokes, and will not be impatient easily.
Zhou Xi really didn't criticize what these colleagues said, took the bag containing the massager, walked out of the office again, and handed the bag to Yu Jinghai.
Along the way, Yu Jinghai hugged the bag of massagers, feeling all sorts of feelings in his heart.
Seeing that he was about to reach the corridor leading to the teaching building, Yu Jinghai gritted his teeth suddenly and opened his mouth:
"I was dating before, yes, it was a woman, but I..."
"Brother Yu, don't worry about what others say. Your mouth grows on others. If you can't control it, be nice to yourself."
Zhou Xi smiled lightly, and patted Yu Jinghai's shoulder with the lesson plan, looking relaxed and mischievous.
After finishing speaking, he turned around and stepped into the corridor, and walked to the classroom.
Yu Jinghai stopped at this end of the corridor, looked at his back, opened his mouth, then closed it tightly, thinking in a hurry, he doesn't care about others, but Zhou Xi is no one else.
He just wanted to tell Zhou Xi that no matter whether he liked a man or a woman before, now he only likes him.
It has nothing to do with gender, I just like him, everything from hair to soles.
Zhou Xi's attitude made him uncertain again.
For several days in a row, Yu Jinghai's mood did not rise, as if he was always thinking about something very important.
For so many years, Yu Jinghai's mood has never experienced too much ups and downs.
He is a dull gourd, usually only knows to be dull and reckless, but now he seems to be riding a roller coaster, his mood is ups and downs, suddenly he is suspended high, and suddenly he will fall down again.
At night after work, he lay on the bed, using the massager Zhou Xi gave him.
Rubbish palms rubbed the screen of the phone intermittently, sent a message to Zhou Xi, and reported how powerful the massager was.
Zhou Xi would only reply to him after a while. I was busy, and I had an evening self-study to watch tonight, and get out of class was not over yet.
But Yu Jinghai looked at the content in the dialog box repeatedly, and felt that something was wrong.
After thinking about it for a long time, I found that Zhou Xi, who usually uses emoticons for chatting, hasn't sent him an emoticon since what happened yesterday.
Every sentence was answered in a short and rigid manner, completely different from the usual gentle humor.
Yu Jinghai took another look at Zhou Xi's last reply—"I'm watching evening self-study, as long as the massager is easy to use."
He felt discouraged immediately, and poked his eyebrows with his mobile phone in secret annoyance.
When Shi Yan came back from the outside, he clicked his tongue when he saw his appearance.
"Old Yu, I just heard that there is a big package from the security room. It's red wine for Xiao Zhou. It should be almost ready for evening study. Do you want to send it to him now?"
Ever since his brother fell into the pit of Mr. Zhou, Yu Jinghai never delivered Zhou Xi's courier by himself.
Shi Yan also knew that he was missing this kind of opportunity now.
Because yesterday he accidentally pissed off his crush.
Look, Teacher Xiao Zhou hasn't smiled at him for more than a day, so he feels uncomfortable all over. After work, he lay on the bed holding the massager in a daze.
Those who didn't know thought he was being bullied.
But about yesterday's incident, Shi Yan happened to know the whole situation by accident, and there was no need to judge, it was Yu Jinghaihun's, and the one who was bullied was obviously Zhou Xi.
No one scolded him for being ignorant, so he still has the nerve to put on a face here?
There is a fixed number of places in the back office of Qiya's college every year, and the length of service can be increased. To put it bluntly, the salary will increase.
There are only three places, but the number of people waiting to be promoted in the logistics position is more than ten times the number of places. The competition is fierce.
Shi Yan mentioned it last year, but this year he knew there was no hope, so he was happy to be at ease without getting involved or thinking about it.
Yu Jinghai has not mentioned it so far, but not because of lack of ability, but because he gave up more than once.
Probably because he didn't pay much attention to salary, every time the list was drawn to the end, as soon as his name was on the list, someone would come to ask him to make way.
The person who came this time was Qin Lu from the property management department, who used to be Yu Jinghai's blind date, but later the date failed, and the two of them had a little friendship like good buddies.
Qin Lu blocked Yu Jinghai on the small road outside the cafeteria, and when she came up, she asked pitifully:
"Brother Yu, can you give me that spot? My score is the closest to yours, but not as high as yours, just a little bit closer."
"I've inquired about it, and the final result this time should be that you happen to be third, and I'm the unlucky fourth."
"Brother Yu, you also know that I rent a house by myself, and the monthly rent for utilities and electricity is very expensive. Now I have been in arrears for several months, and I rely on salary increases to continue my life..."
Yu Jinghai has always taken this kind of things unimportantly, Qin Lu just said a few words, and he was about to let go.
But seeing Zhou Xi coming towards them from the door on the other side, unexpectedly and forcefully intervened to stop them.
"The list is comprehensively selected based on individual abilities, qualifications, experience and other factors. If you have any questions, you can consult the review team. Your behavior like this is inappropriate."
Qin Lu's face immediately turned green and red, bit her lip, and stared at Zhou Xi closely.
"Mr. Zhou, you don't know what's going on in our school, do you?" Qin Lu's words seemed to imply something.
"It's not so serious, and I'm not your student, why are you still educating me?"
When Yu Jinghai heard that the atmosphere was not right, he hurriedly blocked the conversation.
Facing Qin Lu, he looked solemnly: "He didn't want to educate you, you misunderstood."
Facing Zhou Xi, she was all calm: "Ah Xi, it's just a small matter, don't be so nervous."
He had never seen Zhou Xi confront someone face-to-face so directly before, and was confused for a while, worried that his matter would affect Zhou Xi's reputation in the school.
Also because Qin Lu was his previous blind date, and the two of them were suddenly put together in front of Zhou Xi, he felt guilty and unreliable.
He just wanted to solve this matter quickly, and he didn't care about the quota. There was no need to let Zhou Xi tear his face and offend others because of the broken quota.
"I will give up the quota."
Upon receiving the answer, Qin Lu immediately smiled, "Then it's settled, Brother Yu, you are the best at what you say, right?"
"Well, don't worry." Yu Jinghai endured the second half of the sentence, and hurried away, walking around.
Zhou Xi snorted lightly, and took out her mobile phone, "I recorded everything I said just now."
Qin Lu's expression suddenly became ugly.
Yu Jinghai didn't expect this situation to happen, why did he become more and more rigid?
The back of his head was sweating, and at this moment, facing Zhou Xi who was inexplicably difficult to talk and discuss, his intuition was really tricky.
I really can't make such a fuss.
Yu Jinghai stepped forward to hold Zhou Xi's arm, and called him in a panic, "Ah Xi, I've already decided on this matter, it has nothing to do with you..."
Before he finished speaking, Qin Lu snatched him away, "That's right, Mr. Zhou, why are you so nervous, brother Yu? It has nothing to do with you."
"Is it true that the rumors in the school are true? Are you dating brother Yu?"
Qin Lu's straightforward words fell.
Yu Jinghai's expression was really tense, and he held his breath hard.
"—Nonsense." Zhou Xi replied quickly, with a distant yet polite tone.
At the same time, he slowly put the phone back into his trouser pocket.
It is sweet at the entrance, and the mellow taste of wine melts along the lips and tongue, softening the whole mouth.
"Delicious." Yu Jinghai smacked his lips, his eyes somewhat surprised, and then he showed a sincere smile to Zhou Xi, "White and... red?"
"Yeah," Zhou Xi nodded, "I prefer Jiu Xin."
