Chapter 32 Of course I have a clear conscience
In the blink of an eye, it was evening, and Chen Shuo came out of the bedroom with a water glass, ready to go to the water dispenser to get some water.
Bai Xiaoqi was sitting on the sofa watching a video on her phone, her expression serious, her eyes wide open.
"What are you looking at, so fascinated?" As he spoke, Chen Shuo curiously walked over and glanced at the screen of his phone, and he immediately understood.
A gourmet documentary is playing on the screen, accompanied by a rich voice narration. Each diner is eating skewers, their mouths are full of oil from eating, and their faces are red from drinking.
Chen Shuo glanced at the title of the film, it was called "A String of Life". This documentary seemed to be quite famous, and she didn't know how she found it.
Looking at the time, it was already past six o'clock in the evening. He reached out and clicked on the screen of his mobile phone and turned off the documentary.
"What are you doing?! I haven't finished reading yet."
"What's the point of just watching? Come on, let's go out to eat. I'll take you to eat this kebab,"
"real?"
The cat ears on Bai Xiaoqi's head suddenly stood up, her face full of surprise.
"Ang, can I still lie to you? Go change your clothes quickly. By the way, put on the white shirt and black skirt I bought you last time to change your style."
"Uh-huh."
Bai Xiaoqi nodded repeatedly, took out her clothes and went into the bathroom to start changing.
After a while, she opened the door and came out. The slim-fitting white shirt enhanced her size to a higher level and made her bulging.
The black skirt she wore on her lower body covered her thighs and was still some distance from her knees. Although her fair legs were beautiful, the outfit still felt like something was missing.
If only I could wear a pair of black silk stockings, it would be perfect.
Seeing Chen Shuo staring at her legs again, Bai Xiaoqi felt a little complicated for no reason. At the same time, she was embarrassed, but also a little bit happy.
She didn't understand why she had such a mentality, but she hesitated for a moment and decided to cover her legs, and then walked to the corner of the living room, where there was a wardrobe she bought some time ago, made of plastic sheets.
The few clothes she had were stored there.
Seeing her open the zipper of the wardrobe, Chen Shuo couldn't help but ask: "What else are you looking for?"
"I want to wear a pair of black stockings."
"Well...."
Chen Shuo was thinking about how to bring up this matter, but he didn't expect that she would bring it up on her own initiative.
He coughed twice, pretending to be calm and said: "Then you quickly put on your clothes, then put on your shoes and we'll set off."
........
The sky was getting dark, and the two of them walked out of the gate of the community side by side. Chen Shuo's expression suddenly changed. He saw a small electric car slowly driving over.
Bai Xiaoqi was swinging her long sleeves happily. Before going out, Chen Shuo asked her to put on a thin coat. Chen Shuo's coat obviously didn't fit her body and the sleeves were too long.
She was shaking, and when she raised her eyes and saw Chen Shuo's face, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing. Just relax, don't be nervous, and don't talk." Chen Shuo reminded in a low voice, and then the small electric donkey stopped steadily in front of the two of them.
This time, Du Bin didn't wear his old man's three-piece suit with trousers, vest, and slippers. He was dressed in a straight-laced police uniform.
The whole person's temperament instantly changed.
He raised his big hat, looked at Chen Shuo, then at Bai Xiaoqi, and asked with interest: "Young, who is this girl? Why haven't I seen her before? Your girlfriend?"
"Friend, friend."
Chen Shuo responded casually, looking at the police uniform he was wearing, feeling a little guilty, "Have you just gotten off work?"
"Well, I just got off work."
As he said that, Du Bin couldn't help but look at Bai Xiaoqi. His eyes stopped on her long white hair. He suddenly remembered something and said:
"I heard someone say that someone in our community had some kind of romantic debt. In the early morning, there was a girl with white hair knocking on the door. I thought it was who it was, but it turned out to be your kid?"
Hearing this, Chen Shuo immediately felt offended, "Shit, those people in the community are obviously spreading rumors. Can you believe this?"
Seeing that he looked like someone had stepped on his tail, Du Bin was amused and did not continue the topic. Although it was quite curious that a person who squatted at home and wrote novels would interact with a girl from the COS circle.
But it is not convenient to talk about this kind of thing, and it is not illegal.
Then he asked again: "Are you going out to eat?"
"Well, let's go out for a barbecue."
"Eating barbecue? I heard from my colleagues that there is a new restaurant that is good and they are offering a 20% discount."
"Okay, let's go over and take a look then."
After a few more casual chats, Chen Shuo took Bai Xiaoqi away. Only when he was a little far away did he feel relaxed.
Bai Xiaoqi looked back and asked, "Is that policeman your friend just now?"
"Well, we met in an Internet cafe and we often play games together."
"Then what's a girlfriend?"
"Uh...that, don't you know?"
"I don't think what I know is right."
Bai Xiaoqi frowned slightly. She used to preconceptions that girlfriend meant female friends, but now she felt that girlfriend didn't mean that.
"..."
Chen Shuo was stuck. After thinking for a while, he explained conservatively: "A girlfriend is a female friend who is relatively close to her."
"How close?"
"They are very close. Well, boyfriend and girlfriend are also called lovers. As for lovers, you can understand them as husband and wife, but they are the kind of couples who are not married yet. Anyway, they have a very close relationship."
"...."
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoqi pursed her lips a few times, but in the end she didn't say anything. She lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking.
Seeing her reaction, Chen Shuo opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he chose to remain silent.
To be honest, he had an inexplicable expectation in his heart just now.
But he couldn't tell exactly what he was expecting.
But at this time, the feedback from the bottom of his heart told him that his so-called expectations had been disappointed.
.........
Barbecue restaurants in summer are definitely the time when the customer flow is the largest. When I came to the barbecue restaurant Du Bin mentioned, it was very crowded and noisy, but fortunately today was Monday and there were still some seats in the store.
The two of them walked in, found a seat in a corner, sat down, and started ordering.
Some beef and mutton skewers, and some vegetarian dishes such as roasted eggplant and roasted golden needles, that's it.
Putting down the menu, Chen Shuo looked up and asked, "What do you want to drink?"
"Milk tea, yogurt..."
"We don't have what you mentioned here. How about I make watermelon juice for you? It's quite delicious."
"Um."
Seeing her nodding, Chen Shuo handed the checked menu to the waiter beside him: "Please, please give me a splash of watermelon juice and three bottles of beer. All of them must be iced."
He doesn't like drinking very much, and he is the kind of person who can drink or not. But if he doesn't drink, he always feels that he is missing his soul.
The food served at the barbecue restaurant was faster, but within ten minutes, three bottles of beer, watermelon juice, and several plates of meat skewers were served.
Chen Shuo picked up the watermelon juice and poured a glass of watermelon juice for Bai Xiaoqi. He wanted to say something, but couldn't help but purse his lips. He always felt that after the topic of his girlfriend ended, the atmosphere between the two became very subtle, and it seemed that there was no connection between them.
It's a little awkward to talk.
He opened a bottle of beer for himself, took a big sip, and then said leisurely: "I think, although we are misunderstood by others as boyfriend and girlfriend, what others think is their business. The key is to see how we ourselves
Think about it, those who are pure will be pure themselves, as long as they have a clear conscience.
So there’s no need to worry about this, right?”
"...."
Bai Xiaoqi was startled when he heard this. She didn't understand why he suddenly said this, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that what he said made sense.
Although I was misunderstood by others as having a very close relationship, I didn't do anything. Others misunderstood me and it was someone else's business.
As long as you have a clear conscience, that's fine.
Thinking of this, she suddenly asked: "Do you have a clear conscience?"
"I..."
