Chapter 8
Ding Dai bought two flavors of potato chips for Xie Nanting, tomato flavor and barbecue flavor. He was holding a tomato-flavored one.
Ding Dai did it on purpose. Xie Nanting has always been stingy about eating. When two people robbed things when he was a child, he never let himself. Others' elder brothers are all sister-in-law, but her second elder brother is not. The little princesses of other families are all daughters, unfortunately, neither are their Xie family. The little princess of the Xie family is her second brother.
It wasn't anyone else who spoiled his character, it was Xie Nanting himself.
Ding Dai thought to herself, how fresh it is that someone can spoil herself these days.
Xie Nanting looked at the tomato-flavored potato chips in his arms and the barbecue-flavored potato chips on his knees, his eyes were difficult and tangled.
Song Zhaoshui was actually a little hungry. At noon, the weather is stuffy and hot, and when the weather is hot, it is easy for people to lose their appetite. What's more, the box lunch of the crew is really not delicious. But now she rubbed someone's car, she was really embarrassed to eat, so she said, "No..."
Before the words could be said, the handsome hand stretched back and handed over the unopened package of potato chips: "Here you are."
Song Zhaoshui: "I..."
"I let go." Xie Nanting did what he said and did not hesitate for a second.
He was afraid that even if he hesitated for a second, he couldn't help but withdraw his hand.
Ding Dai felt that she had seen a ghost in her heart, and she pretended to be calm. Did her second brother really get hooked up and run away?
What Xie Nanting thought was what Song Zhaoshui said when he gave him chicken wings that day: "You should take care of each other, as you should."
He loves to eat, no doubt about that. Even because he loves to eat, he has developed a cooking skill. But Bao Xuetong never let him expose this to the media because it didn't match his character.
It's just a pack of potato chips, just give it.
Song Zhaoshui didn't know that the two people in the front row had their own thoughts. While she unconsciously stuffed potato chips into her mouth, she was still thinking about how to remind them to avoid the clove road.
The rain outside has been non-stop, accompanied by thunder and lightning, which looks frightening. In such weather, if there is a car accident, it will be very troublesome to rescue, right?
Ding Dai's way is a bit wild, and there are no cars left and right, but she is not afraid. However, Xie Nanting on the right-hand side frequently called to slow down. Although Song Zhaoshui in the back seat didn't say anything, he sat up vigilantly and stared at the window.
Yes, these two people are cherishing life, and they have a surprisingly tacit understanding.
After getting off the expressway, Song Zhaoshui hadn't figured out how to say the prompt when he saw Ding Dai turn the steering wheel and drive onto the road on the right. The three words "Lilac Road" are dazzlingly written on the blue sign by the roadside.
"Stop!" Song Zhaoshui buzzed in his head, his heart pounding, and he didn't have time to think about it. Because of her nervousness, her voice was a bit sharp, and with the sound of thunder and lightning outside and the dark rain curtain, it was a bit terrifying.
Fortunately, Ding Dai is an old driver with excellent quality, so she pulled over neatly and parked: "What's the matter?"
Xie Nanting was just squinting to rest, and was also woken up by fright. The two brothers and sisters looked back together, and Song Zhaoshui realized that her reaction was too much for those who didn't know it. It was too late to make up the excuses. She said embarrassedly, "I didn't bring an umbrella. If Miss Ding doesn't mind, can you take me back first?"
While talking, she took out her mobile phone and read out the Song family address she cheated from Liu Jie.
Ding Dai smiled: "Miss Song, this road can also lead to the Huafu Community. Don't worry, how can I let the beauty get in the rain?"
Song Zhaoshui really didn't know this detail, and she also hoped that Ding Dai could turn around and avoid this road. What to do now? When she is in a hurry, it is easy to unconsciously squeeze the things in her hands. The bag of potato chips was squished and washed, Xie Nanting looked back and asked, "Have you eaten enough?"
It was obvious that Song Zhaoshui vomited that night, for fear that the scene would be repeated. Xie Nanting handed over an umbrella and pointed out the car window: "There are trash cans there."
Song Zhaoshui's heart suddenly choked with blood, and his grief and anger were unspeakable. Be careful she walks away with an umbrella, no matter if you two live or die.
"No, I don't want to throw up." She smiled stiffly, "I think the rain is so heavy, the road looks a little narrow, and I'm afraid it will be unsafe."
Okay, Xie Nanting is the man with sunglasses. Otherwise, how would he know that he had vomited?
Lilac Road is indeed an old road, and it is indeed relatively narrow. It was fine in the past few years, but it has always been prone to problems recently. In particular, there is a bridge on Lilac Road. The bridge rail was broken once, and don't know if it has been repaired. Ding Dai was completely out of habit, and when Song Zhaoshui said this, she hesitated.
With such heavy rain, slippery roads and poor visibility, one should be cautious.
"You're right, let's go another way." Ding Dai found a place to turn around and changed to a flat and open road.
Originally, Ding Dai just thought that Song Zhaoshui, like her second brother, was dying, so she temporarily asked to change paths.
But in the evening there was news that the bridge on Lilac Road had broken its railings. Fortunately, it was an SUV, the model was large, and the back seat was full of people. The car just got stuck in the hole and was crumbling. The talent in the car had just climbed out. The car coming from behind couldn't brake enough, and suddenly hit the SUV off the bridge.
After the railing was broken last time, it was not repaired properly. It was just hung there with a few steel bars.
Ding Dai glanced at the time of the accident, 18:55. If they hadn't gone the other way later, it would have been the exact time to reach the bridge. Her car is small, and if it breaks the bridge railing, it is estimated that it will fall off at once, and there is no chance of it even crumbling.
She couldn't help but be afraid for a while, could it be a coincidence?
She remembered Song Zhaoshui's nervous expression when she called to stop, and she seemed to have a premonition. Pushing it a little further, Song Zhaoshui really didn't want to go with them at the service station. She thinks she can tell whether a person is playing with refusal or welcome, or really wants to refuse. But then he caught up again, as if he had thought of something.
Ding Dai looked at Xie Nanting who was eating a matcha cake on the sofa with a playful look: "Second brother, after reading the news, are you still so calm?"
Xie Nanting looked up at her, and there was no matcha powder on her pale lips. He didn't speak, and his eyes clearly conveyed a meaning: otherwise?
Ding Dai thinks that there is a reason why her second brother is not a sister-in-law. For example, her sister is too funny. She sat on the armrest of the sofa: "Don't you think Song Zhaoshui's performance today is strange?"
Xie Nanting took a sip of water and didn't care: "What's strange?"
He thought about it, that person was very well-behaved today, and he rubbed the car when he rubbed the car. If this is what Ding Dai said is strange, it is indeed a bit...
Ding Dai said bluntly: "She seems to know that there will be a car accident on Lilac Road today."
After speaking, I felt that I was thinking nonsense again, and shook my head: "Forget it, it may be a woman's sixth sense. However, it still doesn't make sense..."
She muttered to herself for a long time, Xie Nanting didn't say a word, just looked at her a little weird, like looking at a fool.
Ding Dai stood up with a sneer, carried her bag upstairs, and said as she walked, "Your life might be saved by someone else."
If Song Zhaoshui didn't get in the car and didn't stop, the consequences would be hard to say.
"Aren't you in the car?" Xie Nanting said subconsciously.
Ding Dai had already reached the corner of the stairs, and she smiled when she heard the words: "So it has nothing to do with you, right?"
Actually, it doesn't really matter. If Song Zhaoshui was there, she would definitely explain that the main reason for getting on the bus was that she didn't want Ding Dai to have an accident.
Xie Nanting looked down at the matcha egg, stared at it for a long time, but didn't see a bite.
When Xie Beige came back, he happened to see him staring at the cake with an inexplicable expression, and said casually, "If you can't eat it, be careful to vomit. You eat cake at night, aren't you afraid of getting fat?"
"Don't mention her." Xie Nanting sighed faintly, pressed his temples, and looked embarrassed.
Xie Beige: Who did I mention?
Xie Nanting stood up, put the cake in the refrigerator, and went upstairs silently, but his back felt a little depressed.
Xie Beige thought to himself: Shouldn't it be? The cake was bought by his assistant at the second brother's favorite cake shop, why is it still sad?
He thought about it and went upstairs to knock on Dingdai's door: "Did you mess with him?"
Ding Dai hugged her arms, she said that she was not the little princess of the Xie family.
"I didn't mess with him." Ding Dai smiled and gloated, "He owes his own debt, so he is struggling."
Xie Beige did not ask what debt he owed. It's definitely not money, otherwise it's not worth Xie Nanting's entanglement.
"Big brother, don't worry about it." Ding Dai yawned, "He will find a way to pay it back."
Xie Nanting is such a person, who refuses to owe any favors. When others voted for peaches, he reciprocated with li and peaches. In short, for so many years, he never owed a debt of favor.
However, the human debt is easy to repay.
How to repay the grace of life?
This is Xie Nanting's headache. He was holding the mobile phone, the screen of the mobile phone was the Weibo private message interface, the id of the other party was "Master Xie's real wife", and the chat record was still stuck in the air kiss emoji.
Song Zhaoshui is obviously not short of money, after all, she has Song Pei's father.
What is she missing?
heroine? Obviously he didn't need his help either, she got the heroine herself.
Xie Nanting frowned for a while, and when his eyes touched the id, he silently buttoned the top button of his shirt. He knew what Song Zhaoshui wanted, but this was impossible.
Well, absolutely not.
Song Zhaoshui coped with the Song family of three, and fell asleep suddenly. Before I fell asleep, my phone ding-dong sounded. I picked it up and saw that it was a private message on Weibo, from "Xiao Xie's Heart Soft": May I ask what you want?
Where did this Aladdin magic lamp come from? Song Zhaoshui squinted and replied indifferently: I want an obedient boyfriend.
She just hit it casually, clicked send, her eyelids closed heavily, and the phone slammed into the soft bed, making almost no sound.
