When she saw Lu Sheng again, Luan Yan understood that she had a crush on Lu Sheng.
The next day, Luan Yan did not greet Lu Sheng in advance and came to the old street alone.
Luan Yan carefully looked at the decoration of the store. The store was not big and the decoration looked old, but the business was good. There was always someone guarding the door. Occasionally, a few quiet conversations came from the compartment. The tattoos should be done in the compartment.
When Fat Monkey saw her, his small eyes widened, and he hurried over to pour her tea, saying, "Are you here to see Brother Lu? He's working inside, and tattooing takes time, so it will probably take a while."
Luan Yan was not in a hurry. She smiled while holding the tea, and said in a friendly manner, "Thank you, my name is Luan Yan, can you help me find a pillow?"
She was more easy-going and polite than Fat Monkey had imagined. He thought that a girl as beautiful as her, who looked noble and had capital, should be arrogant. Fat Monkey scratched his head and went to Lao Zuo's room upstairs to find two pillows for her to cushion the chair. The things in Lao Zuo's room were all good things, so they must be comfortable.
Luan Yan sat on the chair and chatted with Fat Monkey. Fat Monkey's full name was Hou Yongkang. He looked mature, but he was actually only one year older than her. Fat Monkey was very talkative, and they were the same age. He chatted with Luan Yan about everything, most of which was about Lu Sheng. He and Lu Sheng used to live in the same building, and he knew everything about Lu Sheng.
From him, Luan Yan learned that Lu Sheng's father was a chef and his mother was an oil painter. The two people with completely different professions unexpectedly became a couple, but she did not find any traces of his parents living in that house.
"Brother Lu is usually quite fierce, but he is a very nice person." Fatty Monkey was very nice and basically said good things.
"Is he... fierce?" Luan Yan could see that Lu Sheng was not easy to mess with, but she did not think that Lu Sheng was fierce.
"Fierce! He is too lazy to lose his temper in the past two years. He was even more fierce when he was in high school. He also relied on his good grades since he was a child, always got first place, and was handsome. The teachers and classmates spoiled him, so he developed this temper and always bullied me." Fatty Monkey's tone was aggrieved.
Hearing him talk about school, Luan Yan paused. If his grades were so good, why would he drop out of school to work? Lu Sheng did not look like a college student on summer vacation.
When Lu Sheng came out of the cubicle, he saw Luan Yan and Fatty Monkey talking and laughing. The little girl leaned back comfortably against the pillow. Even when leaning back, she was sitting straight and elegant in any situation. She raised her beautiful swan neck and combed her hair into a bun, and there were some loose hairs on her white neck. The back of her head was round and plump, noble and fluffy and cute.
The little squeamish girl knows how to enjoy herself. It would be
better if there were no other male creatures in this picture. It was really unpleasant to watch.
Lu Sheng threw a pack of tissues over and hit Fatty Monkey on the forehead. He frowned and said fiercely, "Still chatting? Go and pay the bill."
Luan Yan was also startled. Well... Lu Sheng is a bit fierce.
She turned around and looked at Lu Sheng. In her clear and watery eyes, the arrogance around Lu Sheng disappeared immediately. His expression was stiff. What fierceness and evil were he? The tissues that fell on the ground seemed to be just an illusion.
Fat Monkey understood that his brother Lu's fierceness was not towards Luan Yan, he was just a double standard dog.
He quickly ran to the compartment to find the guests to pay the bill, leaving the place for these two people who were not clear about what they were talking about.
Lu Sheng froze in place, pursed his lips for a long time, and then said: "Why are you here again?"
Don't welcome her? Luan Yan puffed up her face and said sullenly: "The door is open, can't i come?"
"It's not safe here."
The surveillance cameras in the old street are not as many as in the urban area, and the people are mixed. She is a girl from another place. It is possible that someone will have bad intentions when they see her beautiful face. He can't keep an eye on her all the time. What if something happens?
Luan Yan heard that what he said should not mean that he was not welcome, so she casually found a lame excuse and said: "I wanted to come for a walk, but I got lost again and don't know how to go back."
Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her. How could a girl who came to the island alone for tourism be a road idiot? How could she be so stupid, Lu Sheng would not be stupid either, but he saw through it but didn't say it, so he "believed" it for the time being.
In Lu Sheng's eyes, Luan Yan thought that her lie had been discovered. She blushed involuntarily, and her face was covered with a layer of delicate pink, which made the teardrop mole under her eyes more gorgeous and charming. She looked at Lu Sheng with a stiff face and said coquettishly: "Anyway... I'm lost, Lu Sheng, I can't go home by myself, you have to take me back..."
Okay, whatever she said is what it means.
Lu Sheng sighed: "I still have to work, you play for a while, don't go too far, I will take you home after work." Luan
Yan bit her lip and nodded repeatedly, smiling happily: "Okay."
Her watery eyes were moist and bright, and her big eyes with clear black and white were shining. She was born with a beautiful face, but she was so soft and gentle when she spoke and acted, which was a contrast.
Lu Sheng looked away uncomfortably. If he looked at her a few more times, he would fall into her eyes.
Luan Yan didn't leave the tattoo shop all afternoon. When they were busy, she would fiddle with the decorations on the shelves. Fat Monkey was a chatterbox. Whenever he had some free time, he would come to Luan Yan to chat. Not many people could tolerate Fat Monkey's chatterbox. Luan Yan was two of them.
From Fat Monkey, Luan Yan roughly understood the shop. The owner was called Lao Zuo. He was not old, just over 30 years old. He was the most popular person on their street. Fat Monkey was still an apprentice. The employees in the shop were very young. They all grew up under Lao Zuo's watch. Lao Zuo usually took good care of them. Fat Monkey was the youngest and was always "bullied", but he was also the most favored.
Luan Yan roughly understood why Fat Monkey said that Lu Sheng was fierce and good. Lu Sheng was quite fierce to him, out of a mentality of hating him for not being able to make up for his shortcomings, but he was the most dedicated in the process of teaching him tattoos. Usually, Fat Monkey
would be called away by Lu Sheng for various reasons after chatting with her for a few words.
Luan Yan stayed in the old street for several days in a row. She always used "getting lost" as an excuse to wander around the old street. She was well-behaved and did not cause any trouble. She would wait until Lu Sheng finished his work and let him take her home.
Lu Sheng couldn't do anything to her, let alone his own selfishness.
After having more contact with Lu Sheng, Luan Yan realized that Lu Sheng seemed to only change clothes and eat in that house. He didn't live there. He had to go to the hospital every night. Luan Yan guessed something but didn't ask anyone.
Luan Yan was already familiar with coming to the tattoo shop. She thought the house was too stuffy, so she moved a chair to sit outside the shop every day, leaning comfortably on the pillow. There was an eave in front of the door to block the sun.
Often people would come over to ask her something when they saw her. Fat Monkey would tell acquaintances that she was a tenant in Lu Sheng's house.
Over time, people started calling her "Yan Yan from Lu Sheng's house".
Luan Yan liked this name very much. When Lu Sheng heard it, he just smiled and didn't explain it to anyone.
"Fatty Monkey, come and have some coconut cake." Luan Yan called Fat Monkey over. In just a few days, she and Fat Monkey had established a very deep friendship, which was also thanks to the coconut cake. Fat Monkey and she both loved coconut cake, and Luan Yan especially liked the coconut cake from the old street.
Fat Monkey moved a bench and sat down next to her. Since Luan Yan came to their store, she not only gained everyone's favor but also helped them attract many customers. Every day, there was a pretty girl sitting in front of the store. There would always be people looking around curiously, and some men would come over to chat with her. Except for Lu Sheng's increasingly irritable temper and dislike of those who chatted with him, everything was perfect.
"Yan Yan, are you going to leave after the summer vacation?" Fat Monkey asked after stuffing a mouthful of coconut cake.
Luan Yan was stunned. She had never thought about this question.
Fat Monkey hesitated, and when he thought about how good Lu Sheng was to her, he said directly: "Why don't you stay for a while longer? I think Brother Lu likes you very much. He may not tell you, but he..."
Fat Monkey stopped talking before he finished, and his mouth was tightly shut.
Lu Sheng walked out of the store and only heard the second half of the words. Seeing that Fat Monkey looked guilty, he said: "What are you two talking about?"
Fat Monkey waved his hand hurriedly.
Lu Sheng did not continue to pursue the matter. He took a piece of coconut cake and took a bite reluctantly. He was a native of the island, but he was not used to the island's specialties. This thing was sweet and sticky, white, clean, soft, and glutinous. How come... it looked so much like her?
Lu Sheng took another bite and this time he tasted it. It was sweet, fragrant, and soft, and it was really good. He said to Luan Yan: "Do you like coconut cake?"
Luan Yan nodded to Lu Sheng blankly.
Because of Fat Monkey's words, she was completely confused. Lu Sheng... also liked her?
A woman was walking towards them from afar. She had long curly hair and a deep V-neck. Her breasts were swaying. She was walking towards them step by step in high heels. She was not the prettiest, but she knew how to dress and use her advantages. The closer she got, the more she could see the exquisite makeup on her face, the unique charm of a woman.
"Lu Sheng."
The woman smiled and called Lu Sheng. Lu Sheng didn't say much. He finished his coconut cake in a few bites and followed her into the store. He seemed to be a customer.
Luan Yan had a hunch that this woman must be interested in Lu Sheng.
As soon as the two left, Fat Monkey whispered to her, "The person just now is called Fang Manlin. She is very rich and often comes to the shop to get tattoos. She is also a VIP of our shop. This time, she wants to get a tattoo on her thigh... But Brother Lu is not interested in her and ignores her."
The price of tattoos varies depending on the part of the body. Reservations are required in advance. Fat Monkey is responsible for some chores in the shop. Some people get tattoos in more private places, such as Fang Manlin, who chooses the most private parts. And as long as Lu Sheng gets a tattoo, everyone knows her intention. It
would be a lie to say that she doesn't like it. Luan Yan felt sour in her heart that even the coconut cake didn't taste sweet. She sat there dully, not caring about the sun shining on her face.
Less than two minutes later, Lu Sheng suddenly returned, holding a men's baseball cap in his hand. It was his own. He put it on Luan Yan's head, patted her head, and whispered, "The sun is very strong, be careful."
Luan Yan looked at him unhappily, jealousy written on her face. Lu Sheng slowed down his tone and said, "It will be over soon and I will take you home. Be good."
It was like a boyfriend coaxing his girlfriend.
Luan Yan turned back happily and continued to eat her coconut cake. At that moment, she believed that Lu Sheng...maybe he really liked her.
