Chapter 395 Pure love, pure love
Liu Wangxue drank the rest of the cup in one gulp and stared wide-eyed: "Sister, what's going on? What do you mean you talked to your brother-in-law without knowing it?" Half a year?”
“Isn’t it surprising and magical?” Tao Huaxin pushed the melon seeds to her, “I think so too”
Liu Wangxue was not interested in eating and drinking, and urged her to hurry up. explain.
When Tao Huaxin was in college, he worked part-time as a cashier in a chain supermarket. Later, a new tally clerk came to the supermarket, a tall and strong young man who was like an ice cube to everyone. His face gave off the aura of not letting strangers in.
There is basically no overlap between the work of tallying and cashiering. Tao Huaxin was working part-time at the time and only went there for four hours a day. However, when the supermarket is particularly busy or other cashiers take leave or change shifts, the supervisor will ask her to work overtime.
She doesn't have much interaction with other people. Occasionally when she eats in the break room while working overtime, she will hear others talking about the tally clerk and knows that his name is Qiu Xiangrong. The supermarket is quite big, so she only heard about it at the time and never saw anyone there.
There are little girls in the supermarket who like this product. It is said that some of them had the courage to confess their feelings, and then came back crying, and it became a topic of conversation when everyone was bored.
One day, when Tao Huaxin got off the morning shift and walked out of the supermarket, he saw the clerk at the cake shop at the door putting a plate of freshly made butter clams into the glass cabinet. She was a little greedy at the time, and she was usually reluctant to part with it, but then she thought that she would buy one to try as soon as her salary was paid.
When I got it, I just finished one bite and was about to take a second bite when I was hit by a big man.
She almost fell down, not to mention the buttercup in her hand, which fell directly to the ground and was stepped on by a passing child.
The child obviously did it on purpose. After stepping on it, he turned back and made a face at her, then ran away into the supermarket. But there was cream stuck to the soles of the shoes, which made them slippery when running. The big horse fell down and cried.
Tao Huaxin originally wanted to catch him and teach him a lesson, but when he saw this, he immediately laughed so heartily that his stomach hurt from laughing.
The big man who bumped into her next to her took out a tissue from his backpack, wrapped up the crushed butter baby on the ground, wiped the butter clean, and threw it into the trash can.
Tao Huaxin saw the POLO shirt he was wearing and thought, he is also an employee of this supermarket. Could it be the legendary ice-faced Qiu Xiangrong? I also think this person is really strange. He is public-spirited but rude. He doesn't even say sorry when he bumps into someone.
She just thought about it, then turned around and left. She had to catch the bus, and when she got back to school, she could almost catch lunch in the cafeteria.
As she was about to reach the bus stop, someone grabbed her shoulder bag. Tao Huaxin was startled. When she looked back, she saw that it was the person who had just hit her.
The big man was obviously running after him. He thrust a bag with the cake shop's logo into Tao Huaxin's hand, and did not dare to look her in the eyes: "I'm sorry, I apologize. For you.”
After that, he ran away.
Tao Huaxin didn't even call him to stop. Just as she was about to chase him back, the bus came. She hesitated for a moment but got on the bus.
After lunch, I returned to the dormitory and opened the bag. Inside was a transparent packing box with six butter clams neatly stacked. The roommates lying on the bed just smelled the same, so they came over and divided it up one by one.
Tao Huaxin ate the remaining one and planned to go to the supermarket after work tomorrow to look for it and return the money to him. If you want to pay, just pay for one, there is no need to buy so many.
The next day, a cashier asked for temporary leave, and the supervisor asked Tao Huaxin to help cover the two-hour shift. The teacher of Tao Huaxin's first class in the afternoon was temporarily unavailable, so she agreed.
After work, she went shopping inside but didn’t meet anyone. Just as she was about to leave, she heard someone shouting “Qiu Xiangrong”. She followed the sound and actually saw the person.
Qiu Xiangrong was stepping on the ladder to help a colleague get the box on the top of the shelf. Tao Huaxin was standing aside, waiting for them to finish their work. Because of the little girl's confession before, the eldest sister thought that Tao Huaxin was also here to confess her love. She put the box at her feet and very considerately made room for them: "I'm a little thirsty. Let's go drink some water first, Xiaoqiu." , please help me take down the two boxes above, ah.”
Qiu Xiangrong stood on the ladder and looked at Tao Huaxin with an expressionless face.
Tao Huaxin said: "You come down first."
Qiu Xiangrong held the ladder and came down.
Tao Huaxin took two steps forward and stood in front of him, took out the banknotes from his pocket and handed them to him: "Give them back to you."
Qiu Xiangrong didn't answer and asked her: "What else?"
Tao Huaxin felt that there was nothing to say, just like he stuffed butter clams into her arms yesterday, she grabbed his hand and put the banknotes in her arms. Putting it on the palm of his hand: "It's enough for you to pay me back the money for the other five butter clams."
She gave the money, without looking up at him, and turned around and left after speaking.
This is the second impression Qiu Xiangrong left on Tao Huaxin, his broad but extremely rough hands.
After this incident, a long period of time passed, and Tao Huaxin found that the number of times he saw Qiu Xiangrong increased significantly. He always brought some small things from inside to check out when she was working part-time, sometimes it was a bottle of water, sometimes it was a pack of snacks, or a pen, some discounted fruits and vegetables.
Occasionally he would say something to Tao Huaxin, such as "There are activities over there for daily necessities", "You are working overtime today", or "It may rain outside, did you bring an umbrella?", but most of the time he would Silent.
One Sunday, Tao Huaxin took the bus to the bookstore after work. She was studying accounting and was about to end the term, so she planned to buy a book of exercises to do.
After choosing the book, I took it for a walk and then met Qiu Xiangrong who was standing by the bookshelf reading.
Tao Huaxin went over to greet him: "You have a day off today. Why didn't I see you?"
Qiu Xiangrong closed the book in his hand and put it back on the bookshelf. The one in her hand: "Well, are you here to buy a book?"
Tao Huaxin nodded and noticed that he was reading a historical novel.
The two of them just chatted back and forth. In just a few minutes, they talked more than they had ever said before combined.
From then on, the two gradually became familiar with each other. Qiu Xiangrong would still buy some small things when she was working part-time, such as snacks and drinks, and give them to her directly after paying the bill.
Gossip spreads quickly in a place where idle people gather. Before long, Tao Huaxin became a topic of conversation alongside Qiu Xiangrong.
Tao Huaxin's school allows students to stay on campus during the summer vacation, so she doesn't go home much because of her part-time job.
Qiu Xiangrong would ask her out on his days off. The place the two of them went to most was the bookstore, where they could enjoy air conditioning and read books, killing two birds with one stone.
On the day when the new semester started, Qiu Xiangrong went to school to find her, carrying a box of braised food and a pink balloon in his hand. When I saw her, I smiled very shyly and was a little nervous. I handed the balloon to her first and said, "Here you go."
