Sonata: Fleeing to Avoid an Arranged Marriage - Chapter 34

Chapter 34

Ml Qing froze for a moment, and looked up dumbly: "Why Is this dress with you?"
Xiao Gu: "I bought it."
Ml Qiogs head "quacked" again, but Xiao Gus three simple words made her digest for a long time: "You......bought It? Why are you buying women's clothes?"
It can't be thait he is a transvestite, right?
Mi Qing shivered, the idea is too heavy.
The comers of Xiao Gus mouth pursed uncomfortably as he glanced to the side, as nonchalant as he could muster as he said, "You can sell these clothes even at such a low? I can't hold it in at all."

Mi Qing:"..."
So, he felt that she had lost...too badly? Not only did Boss Xiao refuse to suffer himself, but he also feels uncomfortable watching others eat a loss.
She pursed her lips and opened the paper bag and asked, “So how much did you pay for it?“
Xiao Gu: "Three thousand" After buying the clothes back with three thousand yuan, hK heart finally felt at peace.
Mi Qing froze, and she felt a sudden surge of admiration for him: "How did you buy it so cheaply? I remember the seller pricing It for six thousand!"
Xiao Gu quite proudly smirked: "Trade secrect."

Mi Qing:"..."
She wrinkled her nose and (hen muttered, "The« why did you buy It and only now thought of giving it to me?"
When the question was out in the open, Xiao Gus expression changed back to the uncomfortable one he had at first: ‘I just bought it on impulse, I didn't buy It for you specifically.'
Mi Qing let out a sigh and smiled at him, "So you're giving it to me now? I wonl pay you back."
Xiao Gu's eyebrows flicked before he said, ‘Today is Christmas.'
Mi Qing sized him up and said, "Are you Santa?"

The corners of Xiao Gu's mouth twitched as he repfeed, “I don't wear women's clothes.' Ending the conversation at that, he turned and left. Mi Qing stared at his back, and carried the bag back into the room.
She took the coat out of the bag and examined it meticulously. The coat was as smooth as R could be, as if It had just been ironed, and the buttons hadn't fallen off, Intact as it is.
She happily slipped her coat on and looked in the mirror It's beautiful!
She twirled in front of the mirror again, and ttten heard tl»e muffled buzzing of her phone on the bed. Mi Qing picked it up, it was a text from Zhou Yiran: 'Feeling better now?"
Mi Qing replied: "Much better, I'm so Sony today."
Rabbit gege: It's okay, contact me before your next off ^_^

Mi Qing looked at this message and froze for a moment. After a while, she pressed her fingertip against the screen, “Why Is your username Mr. Rabbft?"
Watching the "whoosh" of tho progress bar that was prompted by the text message, Mi Qing's heart was as tight as a clockwork.
She stared at the phone screen breathlessly, waiting for Zhou Yiran's reply.
Rabbit gege: Because you like bunnies.

The clockwork on her heart strings suddenly loosened, and her heartbeat drummed like thunder.
Zhou Yiran took the name Mr. Rabbit because she liked rabbits; however, she thought Zhou Yiran was the rabbit eared little hero who saved her, so she got obsessed with bunnies.
The distance, like being cast with magic, created a subtle misunderstanding.
She snared at the screen for a moment, still unsure of how to reply to the text that bordered on confession.

If it had been before - even a day ago, Zhou Yiran's confession to her wouid haw made her ecstatic, but now, she just feels like her heart is in turmoil.
He wasn't her Rabbit gege.
Rabbit gege is her landlord with an abominable attitude.
She thought this was akin to the book, Les Miserables.
She didn't reply to the message, and Zhou Yiran didn’t send another message past, as if he knew she needed to be quiet.
He stepped out of the parking garage, and before he could get to the elevator, he heard a car honking to himself, "Beep-!"

He followed the direction of the sound and looked over to a red Cayenne. He gazed toward the driver's seat and realized that it wasn't someone else sitting there, it was really Huo Li.
Huo Li, also wearing a long red coat, smiled as she stepped out from the car and locked the door.
Zhou Yiran looked at Huo Li who was walking towards himself and frowned unconsciously, “Why are you here?"
Huo Li dropped her car key in her clutch bag and smiled at him: “I'm here to find you. Didn't I tell you yesterday that I will come to A City today?“
She did call him yesterday. Zhou Yiran wanted until she came close before asking, “How did you know I'm staying here?"

Huo Li laughed triumphantly: "Such things can be known with a little prying, Its not like your whereabouts are a state secret."
Zhou Yiran laughed wordlessly. "Are you done with your business?"
Huo Li nodded, "Yeah, that's why I thought of coming to you. By the way, didn't you say you had an appointment? Why are you back so earty?"
Zhou Ylran's eyes sank invisibly as he replied, "It was temporarily cancelled." He glanced at Huo Li again as he spoke, "If I didn't come back, were you going to wait here all day?"
Huo Li gentty lifted her exquisitely shaped eyebrows: "I was about to call you. But you came back just in time. Shall we go out and find something to do? It's Christmas."
Zhou Yiran thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, I'LL ask a few more friends so we can get together."

Huo Li pondored for a white, and then smiled again; ’Okay '
They were planning a friends' gathering here, and over there, Xiao Gu knocked on Mi Qtng's door again just before lunch.
Mi Qing was watching videos in the room, and she shouted impatiently at the door: “What's the matter?"
Xiao Gu: "Lunch time, are you coming?"
Mi Qing hurriedly pressed the pause button at the sound of lunch and got up from her chair, "Coming!"

She ruffled her hair, ran to the door and opened It to see Xiao Gu standing outside In his hooded jacket. She blinked and asked, 'Why are you so dressed up when we're just going out to eat?"
Xiao Gu: "Well, I've booked a Chinese restaurant at Yu's."
Ml Qing narrowed her eyes and asked tentatively, "Your treat?"
Mi Qing was relieved, “Then wait, I'll put on a coat." She went to grab the large red coat that was hanging on the hanger and draped it over her body.

She didn't choose the pink coat that had just been redeemed because the outfit, including the makeup, was the most Christmas appropriate outfit shed ever worn specifically for Christmas.
Xiao Gu glanced at the red coat on her, and then at the pink coat hanging on the wardrobe. His Iips formed a line sullenly, turned and started walking away.
Mi Qing followed behind him with her bag, and after knowing it was his treat, she piöked her way up: "Why didn't you choose a Western restaurant?"
Xiao Gu replied dispassionately, 'Why go to Yu's If you want to eat Western food, I can just do It at home.'
Mi Qing:"..."
Okay.

Husky wanted to go out too, but when he followed them out. Mi Qing pointed to the bowl fufl of food and smiled at him: "Dog egg, be good and go eat your dog food."
Husky: "..."
Right, Christmas Is the holiday to eat dog food.
After Mi Qing finished speaking, a thought seemed to have struck her, and poof, she dissolved into laughter, "Hey, Xiao Gu."
Xiao Gu looked back at her.

Mi Qing held back her laugh, but It was dear that her shoulders were still shaking, "I remember that the person who bought the clothes back then was caAed Dog Egg."
XjaoGu:'...'
He turned around and headed out of the door nonchalantly: "You must have seen It wrong, what with your faulty eyes."
Mi Qing:"..."

She admits that she was the one who had mistaken someone for him when she was a kid. But to beat around the bush like this and try to dump the pot on her Is not something she can suffer in silence: "Oh, that post shouldn't have been deleted yet, should 190 And It and check It out?"
Xiao Gu:"......."
Mi Qing smiled as if she had gotten a cheap deal: "When I saw this name back then, I thought that this buyer was too careless when choosing a username, but now I realise that I was the one who misunderstood, this name is too poignant, haha."
Xiao Gu: "..."
“Do you still want to eat lunch?" He wrinkled his nose and threatened.
This time, Mi Qing said with a rare sense of timing, "I suppose, Dog Egg"
Xiao Gu:"..."
Husky woofed twice.

She noticed that Xiao Gu's air pressure continued to drop, so Mi Qing hastened to leave as soon as she saw fit. After all, she didn't really want to spoil her lunch: "Today you are Santa Claus, Santa Claus cannot be so petty."
Xiao Gu:"..."
His mouth pursed as he turned away. Mi Qing waved towards Husky and happily followed.
The restaurant Xiao Gu booked was not fat from where they lived, and whon the two arrived, a waiter in Christmas costume inmediatety greeted them: ’Do the two of you have a reservation?'
Xiao Gu recited his own phone number. After confirming It, he led them to a private room. This Is the first time Mi Qing has visited this Chinese restaurant. She scanned the whole place as they passed by. Not only were the staff dressed in Christmas costumes, but there were also many trays of Christmas treats in the shop.
"Are these edible?" Mi Qing asked.

The staff who led them rotated: "Yes, they're free."
Mi Qing's eyes widened In surprise, Yu's really good!
So she grabbed a handful of candy in her hand.
After they were seated in the private room, another waiter came in and invited them to order. Although it was Xiao Gu's treat. Mi Qing took the menu and ordered a bunch of her favorite food before handing it to Xiao Gu.
Xiao Gu pursed his lips and smiled at her, looking up to the watter, 'Just order these first, thank you.'
“Okay." The waiter repeated Mi Qing's order, made sure it was correct, and asked, "May I ask if you two would Hke a Christ mas couple’s set? It's a Smited-editlon dish for today, and every couple who enters the shop can order one, it's free."

Before Xiao Gu could answer. Mi Qing answered preemptively, "I want it!“
"Okay, one moment please." The waiter backed out with a smile.
Xiao Gu gave her a sidelong glance and smiled wickedly. “UsuaBy at times fkc ttws, shouldn't it be explained to tí« waiter that we aie not a couple?"
Mi Qing smirked and said, "Restaurants just love such fools."
Xiao Gu: "......."
