Chapter 998: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-Tenderly (83)
The next morning.
“Uncle, can you teach me a few words of Russian?”Zuo Yue was eating her toast as she glanced at Xu Chengfeng, who was reading a business magazine.
Xu Chengfeng took a sip of coffee on the table and glanced at her.””Why are you learning Russian?”
“Last night, when I was listening to your conversation with Ainte, I suddenly realized that Russian was very nice. Although I didn’t understand it, I thought it was very nice, so I wanted to learn it.”Zuo Yue poked her fork in the plate and looked at him from time to time.
Xu Chengfeng was silent for a moment, then he chuckled and said a string of words that she did not understand. Zuo Yue thought that he was going to teach her, so she quickly pricked up her ears to listen.
In the end, he didn’t say anything else after saying that. It was obvious that he had no intention of teaching her.
“What did you mean by that?”Zuo Yue asked curiously.
“I’ll teach you another day when I have time. I have to go to the office today. Isn’t your friend coming over today?”Xu Chengfeng put down the magazine in his hand.
“Oh, they probably won’t be here until the afternoon. What did you mean by that just now?”
Xu Chengfeng did not answer. Instead, he went to the study room and took out a Russian language dictionary and placed it on the table.” Look at it yourself. If you insist on learning something so difficult, I’ll teach you later.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he took his coat and walked out of the door.
Zuo Yue pursed her lips and reached out to take the thick dictionary. She chewed on her toast while reading the contents of the dictionary.
Half an hour later, Zuo Yue went to bring the computer over and searched it together with the dictionary.
She remembered the pronunciation of her uncle’s sentence just now, but it was a little difficult to find out because she had no idea where to start.
When she finally combined the pronunciation and grammar to translate the sentence, she rolled her eyes at the dictionary in her hand.
That sentence actually meant ” a child who gives me a headache.”
Was there really any meaning in silently criticizing him?
Since she didn’t understand Russian, she really had to learn it.
*****
Zuo Yue had been learning some simple pronunciations with a dictionary and a tablet the entire morning.
Just after noon, Julie and Weina arrived, but Zuo Yue did not expect there to be another person.
When she saw Yin Ruisheng appear, Zuo Yue was stunned.””You guys…What is this?”
“I met Brother Ruisheng outside school last night. I told Weina that I would come to see you today. He said that he had nothing to do today and planned to come over to see you.”As Julie spoke, she changed her shoes and ran straight into the house. She hugged Zuo Yue tightly and affectionately.
Zuo Yue’s body had yet to recover. Being hugged by Julie with such force, she could not support herself anymore and took two steps back before she managed to stand firm.
” Aiya, are you alright?” Julie did not expect that she would almost fall on Zuo Yue. She quickly supported Zuo Yue and asked with concern.
“I’m fine.” Zuo Yue smiled and gestured for Julie and Weina to sit down. In the blink of an eye, she saw Yin Ruisheng standing in front of the door without changing his shoes.”Why don’t you come in and sit?”
“I came to see you without greeting you. Is it very rude?”Yin Ruisheng smiled.” Zuo Yue, I’m just here to see you. It’s fine as long as I’m sure you’re fine. If it’s not convenient, I’ll just take a look and leave. There’s no need to go in.””
“You’re already here. What’s the inconvenience? There’s no one else at my house at the moment.”Zuo Yue smiled and walked over.” I was just surprised that you came along because they didn’t tell me.” You’re not an outsider. Since you’re here to see me, I can’t ask you to leave.”
Yin Ruisheng looked at Zuo Yue, who was wearing pajamas and had her hair down, and seemed a little embarrassed.””This is a gathering for you girls…”
“Auspicious Prosperity, you were clearly worried sick about Zuo Yue. You’re already here, why are you still leaving?”Julie said loudly,” You’ve been asking about Zuo Yue’s recent situation for more than a month. You were afraid that something would happen to her, but you couldn’t contact her. Now that you’ve finally seen her, why don’t you come in and sit for a while?””
” That’s right. Brother Rui Sheng, you could have begged us to let you come with us last night. You even specially treated us to a big meal for Zuo Yue. Now that you’re finally here, what are you embarrassed about?”
Yin Ruisheng glanced at the two girls who kept causing trouble and then looked at Zuo Yue.
Zuo Yue smiled and reached out to pull his sleeve.””Come in.”
Yin Ruisheng observed her expression. After a moment of silence, he finally walked in.
However, since there were three girls here, he sat on the single-seater sofa opposite them like a gentleman and did not go over.
Zuo Yue was busy at the same time. She went to fetch fruits and water. Seeing that Zuo Yue was fine, Julie and Weina sat on the sofa and chatted about Zuo Yue while eating.
Yin Ruisheng stood up and took the new fruit platter from Zuo Yue’s hands. At the same time, he gestured for her to sit down.”Go talk to them. I’ll help you.”
“No need, that’s all. I didn’t go out yesterday, so I didn’t prepare anything.”Zuo Yue smiled and handed him the fruit platter. Then, she walked over and sat on the sofa.
Because the sofa opposite was occupied by Wei Na and Wei Li, Zuo Yue had to sit opposite Yin Ruisheng on the same sofa.
Seeing that Julie and Weina were only focused on eating and drinking, they did not realize that the coffee table was brand new. Zuo Yue just picked up the fruit and handed it to Yin Ruisheng. Yin Ruisheng smiled and gently pushed her hand away. He did not take it and said,””You’ve lost a lot of weight. What’s wrong with you? Why did he take such a long sick leave? And I haven’t been able to contact you.”
“I’m not sick. I just suffered some minor injuries.”Zuo Yue said softly.
“Injured?” Julie looked at her in surprise. Did you fight with someone?”
The corner of Zuo Yue’s mouth twitched. She fell down a little, and then it was a little heavy. She had to recuperate in the hospital for a period of time, but she had recovered now.”
Julie and Vera both looked at Zuo Yue carefully. They saw that her hands, feet, and head that were exposed outside her clothes did not have any signs of injury. Although they were still a little worried, they did not say anything more when they saw that she was in good condition.
Yin Ruisheng glanced at her fingers.””What happened to your hand?”
“What? I accidentally broke something yesterday and cut my finger. It’s a small injury. It has nothing to do with me being hospitalized.”Zuo Yue said awkwardly.
Because Yin Ruisheng had already sat closer to her when he asked her the question. His clean scent lingered in her nose. She rarely got so close to a boy, let alone Yin Ruisheng, whom she had met when she was young. She didn’t know how to describe this feeling.
