Chapter 009: The Pursuit of a Lady

She lowered her brows and smiled gently: "I am."

He smokes heavily, only smoking one brand of cigarettes, which is not a domestic brand

Sometimes, she would encounter him by chance, in a fast-food restaurant, at the street corner, or anywhere.

Do not eat

the afternoon of the 15th

the morning of the 18th

Creak.

He realized that Xu Tanxi was her, and Miaomiao was also her

He stood outside the house, nearly the same height as her, who was standing on the stone steps inside: "Is the text message meant to be a joke for you? Do you really need me to call and urge you?"

He usually calls her by her full name in a casual tone, yet effortlessly presses on one's nerves

At seven o'clock in the evening, every household is brightly lit, and the late-returning pedestrians hurry along their way. The crisp autumn breeze carries a faint fragrance of flowers, while a crescent moon hangs in the sky, and the warmth of human life is evident on the ground, creating a scene of clarity everywhere

Rong Li had just styled his hair, revealing a handsome forehead. Today, he wore an earring that matched the color scheme of the pendant on his sweatshirt, both in deep teal. He held a cigarette between his fingers, having smoked half of it: "Xu Tanxi."

Xu Tanxi's ears turned red: "Yes, yes, I'm sorry"

His favorite dish is braised pork rice, which he orders the most frequently

In conclusion, he still spoke up

He enjoys playing games very much, often keeping his phone in hand, and even has a dedicated phone for gaming

The dogs at both ends of the village fear him; whenever he appears, the dogs cease to bark

It is not that she intends to cause trouble; rather, she has been bewitched and foolishly and clumsily seeks to get close to him

Rong Guan Guan pushed the door and entered

This is the first time he has called her like this

Sometimes, she would also go to his shop to buy some odds and ends

Noon on the 12th

Xu Tanxi, who rarely shopped online before, said: "I understand now, thank you"

Xu Yao Yao

Xu Tanxi sat on the bamboo couch in the courtyard, swinging her legs, her eyes filled with joy: "Yes."

Rong Li called: "Express delivery."

Recently, Xu Tanxi has purchased many items online, but she has been waiting and waiting, yet she has not received another call from Rong Li

She was somewhat taken aback when she opened the door

Rong Li glanced at the box of almond pastries and asked, "Have the medical expenses been paid?"

Rong Guanguan squatted to one side holding a box, mumbling indistinctly with his mouth full: "Then I'll send a few to eat"

He speaks very little, and sometimes he may not say a word for half a day

Meifujia Convenience Store, your delivery is here

After much inner turmoil, she ultimately discarded the formalities and acted improperly. Upon receiving the message about the package delivery, she chose not to retrieve it

He will return at noon to have takeout with Rong Guanguan, leave after 2:00 PM, come back at 6:00 PM, and continue to have takeout with Rong Guanguan in the evening

Wang Xiaodan has a very good impression of her: "Generally, messages are sent, and phone calls are not made one by one; only those who haven't picked up their packages for a long time will receive a call."

Sometimes, when she heard the women at the front and back of the village talking about him, she would listen attentively from the side

Oh. Rong Guanguan went to put the money away, then hurried back, dragging a small stool. He sat beside his brother, holding a box of almond pastries, and asked, "Brother, did you win the game?"

He kicked the table with one foot

Rong Guanguan turned his pockets inside out, and money fell all over the ground. He placed the box of almond pastries on the table and squatted down to pick up the money: "Sister Xu said we don't need that much."

If it is the weekend, he will sleep in later, leave the military affairs at Old Lady Qiu's house, not return at noon, and come back even earlier in the evening

He is not familiar with the express delivery business, and his efficiency is very low. Most of the time, Wang Xiaodan is busy while he is sunbathing and playing games

He will go to Rongji Steamed Bun Shop to buy breakfast at 8:00 in the morning. After sending Rong Guanguan to kindergarten, he returns home to catch up on sleep, only going to the shop around 10:00.

Oh

Rong Li turned and walked away

He always carries a flashlight in his hand, which seems to have been modified, emitting a very bright light

I have returned

Rong Guan tilted his head: "Is it delicious?"

After that, Xu Tanxi never procrastinated again; as soon as a message arrived, she immediately went to pick up the package

Rong Li pushed away the head that was leaning towards him with a finger and said, "Just average"

Rong Guanguan raised his head, holding a handful of crumpled Renminbi: "Here, this is for you."

He does not like to smile, especially not to smile

Rong Guanguan believed that his brother must not have tasted it before, so he did not know how delicious it was. He opened the box, took out a piece, removed the paper on top, and held it up to his brother's mouth, saying: "I will feed you one."

Rong Li was drawing the skin, without looking up: "Close the door."

On this day, she went to the convenience store early. At this time, Rong Li was unlikely to be in the store. She casually bought some items and, while paying, said nonchalantly: "I have a delivery this week, but I haven't received a call from you."

Given

Rong Li lowered her gaze and continued to peel the skin: "Put it in the cabinet."

Xu Tanxi left behind only a banknote and that empty cigarette box

Rong Guan looked at him with admiration: "Brother, you are amazing!"

Rong Li once again cast a glance at the box of almond pastries

On the evening of the 18th, Rong Li returned after closing up and knocked on the door when passing by Xu Tanxi's house

Rong Li expressed his lack of interest with a heart as calm as still water. After five seconds of silence, he again used a blank expression to convey his reluctant attempt to speak.

A certain person, who is not very fond of smiling, has a slight tendency for the corners of their mouth to turn upwards

Rong Guan was holding a box larger than his face: "Brother, would you like to eat?"

Won

the afternoon of the 10th

Xu Tanxi, this "nail household," successfully attracted Rong Li's attention, and the content of his phone calls became increasingly brief

Xu Tanxi's shop has not yet been set up, and she sits in the yard every day, with the door open, watching Rong Li pass by her doorstep

Many girls like him, and matchmakers often come to his door, but he never lets anyone in.

He is no longer called Yao Yao

He enjoys sweet foods. Old Lady Qiuhua made various flavors of glutinous rice dumplings and invited the neighbors to taste them. He only ate three: one with red bean filling, one with rock candy filling, and one with red date filling

Rong Li called: "At the end of the street, Meifujia, there is a delivery for you"

On the morning of the 5th, a call came in from Rong Li

Xu Tanxi

Rong Li lifted his eyelids

Rong Li called: "Xu Tanxi, you have a package."

Rong Li's gaming addiction kicked in, and he stopped drawing skins. He immediately matched for a game, this time he jumped to G Port. Before he even landed, a grenade was thrown from below, killing him.

On the afternoon of the 7th, Xu Tanxi had another package that had not been picked up

Rong Li called: "You have a package."

Is this Ms. Yao Yao?

Rong Guan used both hands and feet to push open the courtyard door, then hopped and skipped to the main room, joyfully saying: "Brother, Sister Xu sent me almond pastries."

It must be mentioned that although Rong Li secured a victory in the game, he did not achieve a single kill. Throughout the match, he was focused on evading the toxic gas and healing himself, while his teammates revived him three times. His teammate achieved nine kills, showcasing remarkable skill.
