Shang Huaiqing suddenly brought up a faint smile on his lips. He put the mobile phone in his pocket, then raised his feet and approached Taoxi, taking the bread and milk from her hand.

"Sure, I don't choose."

Taoxi withdrew his hand: "Then you finish eating here, or eat while walking?"

"Eat while walking." Shang Huaiqing put the milk into another pocket and freed up his hands , directly tore open the transparent packaging bag of the bread.

The two walked towards the elevator side by side.

"Is the supermarket we went to far?" Shang Huaiqing asked casually when he walked to the elevator.

Taoxi pressed the elevator button: "Actually, there are several supermarkets here, but there is a very large supermarket that is farther away, but it has a full range of items, and there are many delicious small restaurants nearby, which one do you want to go to? "

The Malatang restaurant she wanted to take Shang Huaiqing to eat was near that big supermarket.

Shang Huaiqing chewed the bread on one side of his cheek, paused, and replied, "Will the big supermarket be far away?

"

But soon she changed her mind and said: "It will be farther if you walk. Actually, there are only five or six stops by bus. I usually go there by bus. There is a stop sign at the gate of the community, which is very convenient." "Oh.

" Huai Qing nodded thoughtfully, did not speak, just ate the bread in his hand in two or three bites.

He originally wanted to say that he would drive there, but after thinking about it, he still wanted to take the bus with Taoxi and experience her ordinary life.

"Then let's take the bus and go to that very big supermarket. Anyway, I have nothing to do in the afternoon." He held the bread bag in his palm, took out the milk in his pocket, inserted the straw, and asked "What about you, will it delay your work?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the elevator stop at their floor, and the two of them stepped in one after another.

While pressing the button on the first floor, Tao Xi replied to him: "No, I'm almost at the end of the day, I just took advantage of going to the supermarket today to get some fresh air." The elevator

door closed and drove down.

Shang Huaiqing was half-drinking the milk in his hand. Hearing what Taoxi said, he nibbled on the straw, his eyebrows dyed into a smile, and couldn't help teasing her: "It sounds like your way of breathing is just to go to the supermarket?"

Taoxi Xi honestly said: "It's about the same, or go to a nearby art gallery, but I still like to go to the supermarket." After

Shang Huaiqing finished drinking the milk in his hand, he shook the empty box and turned to look at Taoxi: " There will be many interesting activities at the end of the year, if you have time, we can go and relax together." "

I have time." Tao Xi looked into his eyes, and once again returned to him without any hesitation.

Even though he didn't say anything about interesting activities, and she had no way of knowing whether she was interested in those so-called interesting activities, she still agreed.

Even if it's just as plain and simple as going to the supermarket, as long as you are with him, no matter how boring things are, they will become interesting.

It's just that, just like in the past, she was still bewildered and blushed because of her quick answer.

There was no one else in the elevator, only her and Shang Huaiqing, the atmosphere was subtle and ambiguous.

Tao Xi silently lowered her eyelashes, neither looked at him nor spoke.

Just at this time, the elevator arrived, and the door opened to both sides with a "ding--".

"We're here." After saying this, Tao Xi almost walked off the elevator as if fleeing.

Shang Huaiqing followed her slowly, looking at her back, she was wearing a yellow down jacket today, short and soft, cute and cute like a naive duckling.

Realizing that his analogy was very interesting, the smile between his brows and eyes grew stronger, as if there was some joy, or a pampering that he himself hadn't noticed.

Walking out of the unit building, Shang Huaiqing shivered from the oncoming cold air. He shrank his neck and threw the packing bag in his hand into the trash can on the side of the road. Beside Tao Xi.

Walk side by side with her towards the stop sign at the door.

There were several buses passing by from where I lived to the supermarket, so I didn't have to wait too long in the cold wind. I met a bus almost as soon as I arrived at the stop sign.

Tao Xi took out her mobile phone from her pocket and opened the payment code: "Let's take this car." "

Okay." Shang Huaiqing followed her closely and got into the car together.

The front row of the bus was already full of other passengers. Taoxi grabbed the handrail and walked back. There were many empty seats in the back row, and they were all seats for two. When she went up the steps, she took a seat near the window with her. .

Shang Huaiqing followed her, and after she took a seat, he followed her and sat next to her.

The two seats in the back row are a bit crowded, and the winter clothes are very thick. After the two sat down, they were almost close to each other.

Taoxi sat there obediently, with her hands on her knees to make room for some space, but the down jacket on her body was really thick, especially after sitting down, the down jacket seemed to swell up on her body, covering Shang Huai's body directly side.

Even through the thick down jacket, she could still feel his closeness.

In winter, the windows of the bus are closed, and the car is steaming, making Taoxi's face flushed with smoke. She really wants to unzip the down jacket to let in some air, but her whole body seems petrified, and her hands are still shrunk into the sleeves of the down jacket , just sitting there motionless next to Shang Huaiqing like a small stone statue.

After three or four stops, Shang Huai tilted his head and asked her, "Which stop should we get off at?" "

Huh?" The little stone statue's black eyes finally moved.

After a short pause, Tao Xi finally came to her senses. She raised her sleeves slightly: "We're only two stops away."

Shang Huai glanced at the name of the stop sign in the car in the direction she pointed: "The stop at Fucheng Apartment Get off?"

"Yes, it's almost there."

While speaking, the bus stopped for another stop, getting closer to the destination.

When there was almost one stop left, Shang Huaiqing stood up from his seat, wanting to make room for Taoxi so that she could come out.

Tao Xi grabbed the railing and stood up. When she was walking sideways, she happened to meet the traffic lights in front of her. The bus suddenly braked suddenly. She lost her balance and threw her whole body towards Shang Huaiqing.

Shang Huaiqing quickly grabbed her wrist: "Be careful of the steps under your feet."

After stabilizing her, he didn't let go, he was still holding her wrist, and he didn't let go until she got down the steps and stood firmly.

Taoxi stood in the aisle, holding on to the rings in the car, although she looked calmly looking at the scenery outside the car window, but only she knew that at that moment her heart was in turmoil.

The wrist that was held by Shang Huaiqing just now, even through the thick down jacket, can still feel the sudden and strange throbbing.

After getting off the bus, the oncoming cold wind blew over. Although it was very cold, Taoxi felt very comfortable, at least not so hot.

Crossing the sidewalk, I walked for about two or three minutes before arriving at the big supermarket.

Shang Huaiqing walked to the place where the shopping cart was placed at the door, pulled out one, and asked Tao Xi: "How many things do you buy? If there are not many, let's push a shopping cart." "Okay, actually one is enough.

" Yes, the shopping carts here are larger than those in other supermarkets." Tao Xi stepped aside so that the shopping carts could come out.

Shang Huaiqing grabbed the handle bar of the shopping cart with both hands, took a few steps back, turned a corner, and then pushed forward: "I can see that everything here seems to be quite big.

" Very rich."

While chatting, the two of them walked into the supermarket from the entrance.

After entering, the supermarket is indeed very big as Taoxi said, with a row of shelves that can't be seen from the end to the end, and the variety of goods is quite rich.

"The first floor is mostly for food, the second floor is for daily necessities, and the third floor is for clothes." Tao Xi briefly introduced.

Shang Huaiqing nodded slightly: "It sounds like you have everything."

Then he turned his head and looked around: "Then we will go to the first floor and the second floor. I can buy some food and things for use." Already."

"Okay, let's go over there and buy some bread, it's all freshly made that day." While speaking, Tao Xi naturally walked to the front of the shopping cart, holding the front of the cart to lead the way.

Shang Huaiqing pushed the shopping cart and slowly followed her, listening to her introduction all the way, and bought a lot of things.

It wasn't until the checkout that he realized that Taoxi didn't buy anything, and in the end he accompanied him in line to checkout with nothing.

It seems that I forgot to buy her things.

Shang Huaiqing immediately asked: "I just bought it with me. Have you bought the thing you want?"

After he reminded her, Taoxi suddenly realized that she didn't remember what she wanted to buy just now. It seemed that she didn't have anything to buy. The purpose of her visit to the supermarket was to accompany him to go shopping.

When this idea was about to be seen through by Shang Huaiqing, Taoxi felt a little uncomfortable, and she casually picked up a pack of chocolate beans on the shelf at hand: "I don't mind, I don't need to buy today, there is nothing in a hurry to buy." Yes."

Shang Huaiqing hid the smile at the end of his eyes, glanced at the chocolate beans in her hand, and asked her casually: "So are you only in a hurry to buy chocolate beans?" There was some teasing in

his cool words, The half-smile and half-smile also looked bad, which inexplicably gave Taoxi the illusion that he seemed to have seen through her mind a long time ago, but he kept pretending not to know.

Realizing her own thoughts, Tao Xi felt more and more uncomfortable. She casually picked up another pack of chocolate beans: "Because I like to eat these chocolate beans very much, but I just don't have any at home." Seeing her somewhat embarrassed look

, Shang Huaiqing didn't tease her anymore, but just took the two packs of chocolate beans from her hand: "Pay the bill with my stuff." "

Then I'll transfer the money to you later."

"No, just treat it as me. " Please, thank you for shopping with me for so long today." "

It's okay, I'm going out for a stroll anyway, so I'll transfer the money to you." Taoxi looked down at the shopping cart, Shang Huaiqing had already put it in Chocolate Bean, declined in a low voice.

After the words fell, there seemed to be no movement on the other side, neither speaking nor making any noise. Taoxi couldn't help but looked up, thinking that Shang Huaiqing was looking at his mobile phone, or at the people in line in front of him, but he didn't realize until he looked past , he was looking at himself with cool eyes.

The lights in the supermarket were brightly lit, and a large white light fell on him, which was soft and lingering. He grabbed the handlebar of the shopping cart with one hand, and stood there lazily, with a smile on his face and eyes.

The moment she met his cool gaze, Tao Xi felt her heart beat wildly. She stood there pretending to be calm, waiting for Shang Huaiqing's next reaction.

After a moment of silence, he casually threw a sentence: "It seems that it is not enough to treat you to two packs of chocolate beans, and I will treat you to dinner later."

Her polite refusal just now was in vain.

Tao Xi pursed her lower lip slightly, didn't speak any more, just turned around silently, and looked at the checkout line ahead.

After she turned around, Shang Huaiqing quietly reached out, took a few more packets of chocolate beans from the shelf, and threw them into the shopping cart.

After paying the bill, when I walked out of the supermarket, it was still cold and windy outside. It was almost noon, and it happened to be time for dinner.

So Shang Huaiqing suggested: "I remember you said that there are many small restaurants nearby, let's just have lunch here." "Okay, there is a

delicious Mala Tang here, you can try it." Tao Xi Glancing at the two big bags in Shang Huaiqing's hand, she was going to take the initiative to carry a bag for him after paying the bill just now, but he refused.

"Ma La Tang is also fine, and you can eat a lot of vegetables."

"Yes, and the peppers in that store are very distinct. If you can't take spicy food, you can order slightly spicy. It's not too spicy, but it can be seasoned." Taoxi chatted.

While talking, her attention was still on the bag that Shang Huai was carrying, she stopped in the end, and suggested to him: "Before we go far, do you want to store your things in the cabinet of the supermarket first? "

Shang Huaiqing lifted up the bag with both hands: "No, it's not that heavy, let's go directly." "

Well, it's actually not too far." Go to a Mala Tang shop.

That Malatang store is indeed not too far away, only a minute or two away.

It was just in time for lunch, and there were quite a lot of people in the store. After waiting for about ten minutes, two people got their seats.

During the blank time between sitting down, ordering, and waiting for Malatang to be served, Shang Huaiqing casually started a topic and said, "I remember when I was in school, there were many street stalls on the roadside, and the most popular one seemed to be Malatang. It's hot, but it's rare to see roadside stalls now."

"It should not be allowed to set up stalls now. I remember that I could still see them at night, on the side of the road in summer, and in a simple plastic shed in winter. It is the kind of Malatang that can be cooked in a string." Taoxi Biantuo Taking off the down jacket on his body, he continued the conversation.

"Yes, I also remember the kind of sesame sauce that I used a plastic plate to make, and it was delicious." "

And the plate was covered with a plastic bag."

"Yes." Shang Huaiqing couldn't help laughing, nodded and said, " It seems that people of the same age have the same kind of memories."

Tao Xi didn't speak any more, looking at Shang Shang Huaiqing's smiling eyes, her mind suddenly froze, and she couldn't catch up in time Fortunately, at this moment, the Malatang ordered by two people was served on the table.

"What did you order, is it slightly spicy?" Shang Huaiqing took out two pairs of chopsticks from the table, and handed one of them to Taoxi.

Tao Xi took the chopsticks: "Medium spicy, slightly spicy than slightly spicy."

Shang Huaiqing tore off the wrapping paper of the chopsticks, and then he used the chopsticks to stir the Malatang in front of him: "The Malatang here is really rich. "

Almost a full bowl, vegetables, fish balls, shrimp dumplings, fish tofu, etc., two types of noodles with different thicknesses, all kinds of ingredients are full of richness.

"Actually, you can add more ingredients." Taoxi pointed her finger backwards, and then added, "On the menu later, if you want to add more, you can add more, but you have to say it in advance before cooking." "

Then Only next time, but such a bowl is enough." After speaking, Shang Huaiqing picked up a piece of fish tofu and put it in his mouth.

Tao Xi didn't speak any more, but quietly ate the Mala Tang in front of him.

She picked up a chopstick of cornflour and slowly sucked it into her mouth. She had just chewed two or three bites when she saw Shang Huaiqing from the opposite side handing her a tissue: "The soup splashed on me." "Thank you.

" Tao Xi took the tissue and subconsciously wiped only the corners of her mouth.

After wiping, when she was about to continue eating Malatang, she just lowered her head when she heard Shang Huaiqing continue to remind her: "It hasn't been wiped clean yet." "

Huh?" Taoxi looked up, meeting the eyes he was looking at .

Seeing his eyes falling on her face, he thought the soup was still splashed on her cheek, but soon he saw his long finger gesturing casually on his own left chest: "There is more here."

Tao Xi looked down.

Even though Shang Huaiqing's eyes met hers all the time just now, and he didn't go beyond her body when he reminded her, but the position where the soup splashed on her body was too ambiguous, almost unspeakable for girls.
