In the supermarket on the other side, Ji Fanling saw that Fu Yingcheng had finished his phone call, so he pushed the shopping cart over and handed him the bread to try.
The man seemed to have just answered an ordinary work call, and his expression was normal. He just asked her to choose a pair of cotton slippers, and then walked to the dining area.
Although Ji Fanling only broke a few dishes, Fu Yingcheng still bought two complete sets of tableware.
Ji Fanling also agreed. His house had very few tableware, but if there were two more guests, it wouldn't be enough. He should buy more.
Fu Yingcheng had other daily necessities to buy, so Ji Fanling didn't follow him all the time. He wandered around twice by himself, and then slowly went to join him.
The man stood tall and tall, wearing a noble black coat. From a distance, he stood out among the crowd. The top of the shelf could only reach his shoulders.
Ji Fanling came closer and saw that he was picking out shampoo with his eyes lowered - it was still cherry blossom, daisy and strawberry flavored.
Ji Fanling: "..."
The girl looked away uncomfortably: "There's no need to buy a new one."
"Why is it not necessary?"
Fu Yingcheng straightened up and glanced at her with his dark eyes: "I am not I like to share shaving foam with others."
After he finished speaking, he seemed to have just come to his senses and added leisurely: "Oh, I made a mistake, it's shampoo."
Ji Fanling said,
his face turned pale. He grabbed the shampoo and threw it into the shopping cart, gritting his teeth: "Buy, buy the big bottle!"
When checking out, Ji Fanling rushed in front of Fu Yingcheng and picked out several items including shampoo and slippers. : "I'll pay it myself."
Since she borrowed five hundred from Zhou Sui, there was no need to spend Fu Yingcheng's money.
Seeing her actions, Fu Yingcheng raised his eyebrows slightly. He couldn't tell whether his eyes were surprised or strange, but he still said: "It's up to you."
After leaving the supermarket, Ji Fanling wanted to go to the bathroom, and Fu Yingcheng was carrying something in his hand. Wait for her outside the bathroom.
He was waiting in front of a stuffed toy store.
One of the clerks accidentally saw the profile of the man outside the store when he lowered his head. His eyes widened in surprise, and he excitedly shook the other clerk's shoulders.
The two of them pushed and shoved each other, and one of them stepped forward with small steps and said in an attentive tone: "Handsome guy, are you waiting for your girlfriend? Why not consider buying her a surprise?"
Fu Yingcheng was prepared to refuse without any interest.
The clerk was holding a lop-eared rabbit with a big price tag of 180, and introduced it quickly: "This kind of soothing rabbit is very popular with girls. The baby-grade fabric is soft and skin-friendly. Holding it when you are sad can make your mood better." It will get better."
I don't know what words touched him. The man swallowed back his words of rejection and raised his eyes: "
Of course it does," another clerk couldn't help but come over to help. We all have scientific research to prove that plush toys can relieve loneliness and promote the body's secretion of dopamine and love hormones..."
Fu Yingcheng lowered his eyes in confusion.
The scene I bumped into last night was still vividly before my eyes.
Drifting smoke enveloped the night.
The girl's lonely look, thin back, drooping eyelashes, and tears at the end of her eyes.
A gentle drop, but it seems to hit the heart of the heart hotly, spreading a dull suffocating pain that makes people unable to breathe.
Since her resurrection, she has not shown much panic or confusion, and quickly accepted the current situation ten years later, as if she didn't care at all.
In just that moment, people got a glimpse of the fragility that she should have had after encountering such a huge change at her age.
But it's not his turn to say many things, and it's not his turn to do many things.
It will be the same ten years ago and ten years from now.
After all, they are not familiar with each other at all.
"Wrap it up."
The man said, stopping the waiter with his eyes and motioning to the display cabinet high up.
"——Want the biggest one."
*
Ji Fanling came out after going to the toilet. Across the crowd, she saw a man with an indifferent temperament standing expressionless. Under the attention of passers-by, he was holding a rabbit as tall as one person in one hand. .
Ji Fanling's pupils shrank slightly and he said in surprise, "Did you buy it?"
"Or did I steal it?"
Fu Yingcheng's cheeks tightened and he stiffly raised his hand to hand the rabbit to her.
"Take it."
The rabbit was as big as a mountain and pressed down on him. Ji Fanling was instantly covered by the sky and the earth, and his mind was in a state of confusion.
Fu Yingcheng bought her a rabbit?
Why?
She can understand eating, lodging, and bathing. Maybe it's useless if he leaves the phone alone, but stuffed toys can't be eaten or used... Isn't that necessary?
Ji Fanling held the rabbit with difficulty and turned his head sluggishly.
Could he be caring about himself?
Could it be that the purpose of bringing her here for noodles was to allow her to meet Jiang Baixing?
...
Was Fu Yingcheng too kind to her?
On the way back, the rabbit was buckled up and squeezed sideways in the back seat of the car, like the elephant in the room.
I want to ask him why he bought the rabbit.
I couldn't ask again.
Fu Yingcheng didn't mention it, and Ji Fanling pretended not to see it, just watching the safety charm hanging on the car flicker.
In the peripheral vision, the man was holding the steering wheel with one hand, his long fingers slightly flexed. The black leather made his skin color cold and white, highlighting his cold bones.
At the intersection, there was a ninety-second long red light.
The hand holding the steering wheel tapped twice slowly and thoughtfully.
Ji Fanling retracted his thoughts and subconsciously looked at Fu Yingcheng.
"I suddenly remembered," Fu Yingcheng said, "Did you smell cigarette smoke when you were at home this morning?"
"..."
Ji Fanling was silent for a while: "No, is there? You don't like the smell of cigarette smoke?"
"Forget it. I don't like it."
"I'll come back after I finish smoking next time," Ji Fanling said immediately.
