Chapter 39
The date Tong Mingyue agreed with Xu Can was the second day after she finished her work, and it happened to be the day when Xu Can and Xu Qianwen made an appointment to go out to watch a movie.
Xu Can didn’t hesitate for half a second. He made a phone call and brought forward the time for the two of them to watch the movie.
When she got home, she packed her suitcases.
I told my grandma that I had to go back to school early because of my part-time job.
Tong Mingyue originally heard from her that she was going to leave for a week after the school started, thinking that she didn’t want to leave the house so early, and she deliberately set aside a few days after the project to stay here.
Xu Can said that there is really nothing interesting here.
One day at most is enough.
Don’t waste time.
…
The next day, Tong Mingyue finished her work.
Drive to pick Xu Can out.
Xu Can picked out clothes for several days in advance, and finally wore a milk tea brown jacket with horn buttons, a white sweater inside, and a sleeveless dress. Black pantyhose wrapped her slender legs, and her little leather shoes were shiny.
The long crow’s black eyelashes blinked lightly, and the slender and erect nose pursed the corners of his lips.
I did a nice makeup on purpose.
Looking in the mirror, he finally fiddled with his long hair, and the neatly trimmed ends fell softly to his chest.
Lifting her lips, she smiled at herself in the mirror.
I went downstairs excitedly.
Today… just happens to be her birthday.
The birthday that was forgotten by Xu Can again.
Because of her, he suddenly became serious.
Xu Can walked out of the community a quarter of an hour earlier and waited on the side of the road. Tong Mingyue’s car arrived five minutes early, and when she lowered her head and didn’t pay attention, it slowly stopped in front of her.
The window rolls down.
Tong Mingyue had a smile in her eyes, and casually said with one hand on the steering wheel: “Little girl, where are you waiting for? Do you want to send it?”
Xu Can raised his lips and smiled, “I don’t dare to sit in a black car.”
While quickly folded to the co-pilot, opened the door and sat in.
The car starts.
Tong Mingyue glanced at her with a smile on her lips, and said, “Today…very, very, very beautiful.”
Xu Can: “…”
Her heart beat twice, then she turned her head and stared at the car window, struggling to hold back a smile. This is what she boasted about after she helped her with makeup last time.
Muttered, “That’s nothing new.”
Tong Mingyue laughed softly, looking straight at the road ahead, her tone was as serious and gentle as always: “Hua Rong graceful…”
“Makes me forget my meal.”
Xu Can pursed his lips and raised his dimples, feeling that he should keep two small bottles of quick-acting heart-saving pills by his side.
My heart is beating so fast.
It’s always like this when I’m with her.

I made an appointment to go to the teahouse during the day.
Tong Mingyue thought about listening to Pingtan a long time ago.
Xu Can knew that there was a teahouse along Nanyan Road, and it was very popular among the locals. After confirming with Xu Qianwen, she also stepped on the spot to ensure that it will not go bankrupt after so many years.
Opened in the depths of the ancient alley, tourists can fill the entire alley during the Golden Week of tourism.
Now in the off-season, the teahouse is too far away, and there are not many people in the hall.
Xu Can followed Tong Mingyue in.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard the soft sound of Pingtan.
“I have a love, I sing it to all the gentlemen, all gentlemen, please be quiet…”
The male voice was softer than that of the girl. The boy in the navy blue coat looked very young, with clear eyebrows and a small pear vortex on his face when he smiled. Round face, white teeth.
Xu Can hurriedly swept over, thinking that Yang Rui had changed his hairstyle and was sitting on top singing. Shocked.
I was busy looking at it carefully, and it really was a mistake…
Tong Mingyue followed her gaze and took another look.
The two walked forward and sat in the private room.
It is said to be a private room, which is more similar to the deck of a bar, except that there are exquisitely carved wooden partitions around it.
It is easy to see the stage clearly.
The two of them sat in the box.
Xu Can saw a light falling on her face obliquely from the window, outlining her facial features more clearly.
She tilted her head slightly, but did not avoid the light, so she had to squint slightly.
The eyes are bright in the light, refracted like glass, clear and translucent.
Tong Mingyue leaned back to avoid the light, took a cup in one hand, poured tea for her, her coat cuffs showing her plain white wrists.
Outside the box: “Let me sing a Qinhuai scene…”
Tong Mingyue handed the poured tea cup to Xu Can.
did not speak.
She held a cup of tea in her hand, whether to drink it or not, and looked through the crowd at the two singing on the stage.
Xu Can originally thought that Tong Mingyue was curious, or just wanted to feel it.
Unexpectedly, she really likes listening to it.
They also came by coincidence. The people who originally came to power could not come today. The teahouse temporarily invited a more famous person to sit there. These two usually don’t come to sing. It’s the most convenient to listen to their stories and turn on the TV channel.
Xu Can’s seat is at a good angle, so he doesn’t have to secretly look at Tong Mingyue’s profile.
She wants to dress a little more old-fashioned.
She looks like the lady in the boudoir who liked to hear about books in the old days.
Even back, leaning against the back of the chair, there is still a kind of temperament.
“Pangu to the present, Jiangnan Splendid…”
Tong Mingyue listened very carefully and didn’t talk much to Xu Can. After the song was sung, the little girl changed the position of the pipa in her arms and hugged her. Under the cheongsam, her long white legs were lifted up gracefully.
Tong Mingyue looked away, took a sip of tea, and asked Xu Can with a chuckle, “Are you a local, can you sing?”
Xu Can: “…”
Xu Can drank the tea first, put down the cup, and said, “The way they sing is not the same as the usual speech. They can understand, but they can’t sing.”
Tong Mingyue said “Oh”.
He filled her with tea and laughed again, “I just thought, if you can sing, you will definitely sing better than that girl. After all, the voice is so nice.”
Xu Can: “…”
She picked up the cup’s hand, shook it a little, and forced herself to calm down: “How is it possible, I’m a little dysphonia.”
I thought to myself, is it too late to learn at this age?
Learn a song, can you just worship a master here… She said my voice is nice…
The sound of the pipa slowly stopped.
The next song started to sing again.
“A child…”
Xu Can looked sideways, and suddenly noticed that in the lobby, there was a sneaky person who glanced at each box. He is looking around, looking around and walking towards here.
Xu Can: “…”
Wait for that person to look here.
As soon as her gaze came over, she directly met Xu Can’s gaze.
“…”
Reflexively, he took a few steps back and almost hit the waiter who was serving the tea. He turned around and apologized.
Xu Can was helpless: “Xu Qianwen…”
“Why are you here?”
Seeing this, Xu Qianwen took two small steps here embarrassingly, and was stunned when she saw the person opposite Xu Can.
“You…you…” When he realized something was wrong, he changed his mouth, “…are you Teacher Tong?”
this title. Tong Mingyue looked at her, thought for a few seconds, and nodded lightly: “…Xu Qianwen?”
She even called her name!
Xu Qianwen was shocked, she subconsciously sat down next to Xu Can.
Nane said: “Teacher…you still remember me…”
Tong Mingyue smiled without saying a word.
Xu Qianwen actually regretted it when she sat down.
She can pretend to pass by, say hello and leave, but she still sits. Sitting is not good for a while, then stand up and walk away.
I had to laugh and talk about the old times, and asked her how she came here and what happened afterward.
“…”
Until Tong Mingyue got up and went to the bathroom.
Xu Qianwen can finally start complaining: “What’s the matter with you, Xu Cancan?”
“I knew you had activities, but I didn’t expect it to be so business-oriented.”
Xu Can was too lazy to talk to her, and rolled his eyes: “Why are you following?”
“Who asked you to ask about this kind of place, if you ask an amusement park game city, I will definitely not follow. It is Pingtan! Who else would be interested in this kind of thing except the elderly, I am not afraid that you will be middle-aged and elderly. Man cheats!”
Xu Canbai glanced at her: “This is a national intangible cultural heritage, and you have no culture.”
“No culture!” said again.
“Good good…”
Xu Qianwen continued to fidget: “I’m going to die, you know I’m a scumbag, and you get nervous when you see the teacher. Forget it in class, and it’s too panic to meet you when you come out to play.”
Xu Can: “Then you go first.” Hurry up.
“Then I’ll go first?”
“Um.”
“Help me tell me…”
Xu Qianwen didn’t have time to finish.
As soon as he stood up, Tong Mingyue came back. She is obviously not her own teacher, and she has only been a substitute for a whole class. Xu Qianwen has a natural fear of teachers: “…that teacher Tong, I have something in mind, so I will go first.”
Tong Mingyue nodded.
It was enough to say it here, and no one wanted to keep her.
However, Xu Qianwen added with a dog-legged smile: “The newly opened game city next door, I’m going to go shopping there. Pingtan is only suitable for educated people like you, haha.”
Tong Mingyue: “…”
She glanced at Xu Can and asked, “Then let’s go shopping?”
Xu Can: “…”
Xu Qianwen: “…”
Xu Can said, “Xu Qianwen, aren’t you going home to catch up on your homework? Don’t go to the game city.”
He turned to Tong Mingyue and said, “Let’s go.”
Xu Qianwen: “…”
Tong Mingyue smiled: “Okay.”
—
Game City is just next door.
In the newly opened promotion, one dollar can be exchanged for three game coins. The game currency is loaded in an empty disposable milk tea cup, which is heavy.
As soon as I entered, I passed a few rows of claw machines.
The machine facing him had a white and soft dog with big ears and black glasses on the bridge of his nose, Sven.
Xu Can was inexplicable and felt that he looked a bit like Tong Mingyue.
She couldn’t move.
He pointed to the machine and said with a smile, “I’m going to clip one for you!”
Tong Mingyue looked at the dolls and smiled: “Okay.”
…
I thought it was a simple matter.
Xu Can threw a coin into it and said, “This kind of doll with a big head and a small body, as long as the clip falls at the center of gravity…”
Failed.
“I didn’t get it right just now, but the center of gravity is actually quite easy to find…”
Failed again.
“…”
All kinds of fancy failures that you think you can do one second, and slide down immediately the next second.
Xu Can kept his mouth shut, he couldn’t say anything he could say next time. She obviously got full marks in the physics exam!
after awhile.
Xu Can felt that he couldn’t spend his life here, and wanted to leave, but from the reflective surface of the glass, he saw Tong Mingyue’s interest.
“…”
Does she want this doll so much?
Xu Can cautiously swallowed.
Two more game coins were stuffed in, the bar was pulled over, aligned, and it was clearly stable when the claws were dropped. up and down.
The machine seemed to dislike her.
Xu Can was convinced, held the game coins to Tong Mingyue, and asked weakly, “Do you want to try it yourself?”
“You try it.”
Tong Mingyue didn’t go to pick up the cup of game coins, she raised her eyebrows, and asked in surprise, “Huh? Didn’t you say someone wanted to catch it for me?”
His eyes were bright, and he had a bullying smile on his face.
“I may not be a good fit… There must be something wrong with this claw!”
Xu Can maintained his last dignity, “Let’s go, I’ll buy one for you, okay?”
Tong Mingyue took the game coins and stuffed two into them.
She just wanted to try it.
Probably because Xu Can threw enough coins into it just now, the machine felt ashamed not to spit it out again. This time, I grabbed it with one leg and fell steadily to the exit.
Tong Mingyue: “…”
Xu Can: “…?”
Tong Mingyue smiled and bent over to take out the doll.
hold in hand.
Seeing that Xu Can was obviously puffed up, he secretly stared at the doll, his eyes met, and he quickly shifted his gaze, pretending not to care, and said, “It really is hidden.”
Tong Mingyue bowed her head and smiled humbly: “Someone does it well.”
Xu Can: “???”
His eyes widened at her.
As if to say: how can you bully people.
Like a puffy little dolphin.
It made Tong Mingyue want to reach out and poke her face, thinking about it in her heart, but holding back her movements.
Staring at her, but within a few seconds, Xu Can suddenly bent his lips and smiled.
Xu Can stepped forward, held her arm lightly, smiled at the corners of his lips, and said softly, “Anyway, I caught one too.”
Tong Mingyue: “…”
The little girl tilted her head, “What’s the matter, can’t you take it away for me?”
The chin was slightly raised, the black coat lined the white and tender hands, and the bright eyes stared at her for a moment. close at hand.
Tong Mingyue’s expression moved slightly, and she was stunned for a moment.
After half a sound, he bent his lips and said, “I think… OK.”
