Just a few seconds after Ye Shuang and the others took a taxi and left, a pink Porsche drove in.
A woman, who looked around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, opened the car door and got out. She had a beautiful face, long brown wavy hair, and was dressed in a business suit, paired with black silk high heels. The bright red color of her lips set off her porcelain-white skin, making the teardrop mole under her eye look even more sexy and mature.
"Chen Hai, where's Ye Shuang?!" The woman clicked on her high heels and immediately asked when she saw Chen Hai by the roadside.
"Why did you come so quickly?!" Chen Hai was taken aback. "And you drove in high heels? That's against the rules."
"Who asked for your opinion? Where's my Ye Shuang?" Chen Qin grabbed Chen Hai's clothes. "Did you hide him?"
Chen Hai's face immediately showed a bitter expression. "I really don't know."
"Weren't you indifferent to Ye Shuang before? Why are you acting like a love-struck girl now that he's broken up?"
"Fatty, who are you calling a love-struck girl? I was just being polite and keeping my distance when he was in a relationship. You don't know anything!"
"Well... you really have a lot of patience. But I really don't know where he went. Do you want me to ask for you next time?"
"Then give me his new phone number!"
"I don't have it."
"You're lying!"
Chen Hai felt a bit helpless. He really couldn't understand why his sister was so into Ye Shuang, and it was the kind of secret crush she'd had since childhood. Wasn't that guy just a bit better-looking than himself?
Looking at the "Overlord" in front of him, Chen Hai thought to himself, I can only help you to this extent, my brother.
...
Ye Shuang had already taken a taxi and brought Bai Yuyou back to the residential area. Maybe it was more appropriate to call it home. After all, Ye Shuang had planned to live here for a long time, and a place that could accommodate him was worthy of being called home.
Although he hadn't spent much time with Bai Yuyou, Ye Shuang couldn't put aside her matters at all. Teaching this girl how to better integrate into society and live independently had become his current goal.
The big ups and downs in his life had also made Ye Shuang more open-minded.
In the dance of life, the one who initially taught you how to dance might not be the one to accompany you until the end. This was true whether it was that person to himself or himself to Bai Yuyou.
Ye Shuang didn't know how long he could accompany Bai Yuyou. Two people who had no connection at first were tied together by the thread of "fate".
When the knot was untied, it might be time for him to leave. But before the curtain fell, Ye Shuang wanted to enjoy the process.
At this time, Ye Shuang had brought Bai Yuyou to the vegetable market. Seeing the girl looking eagerly at the roasted chickens and ducks, her cute appearance made Ye Shuang find it quite interesting.
"Do you want to eat roast duck?" Ye Shuang asked.
"Yes." Bai Yuyou nodded gently, and her usually cold demeanor became a bit more lively.
"Boss, I'd like a serving of roast duck. I want the lower part, and also some plum sauce."
The so-called lower part was the lower half of the duck. Ye Shuang probably wanted a quarter of it. It looked quite fatty, and it should taste good.
"Okay, 26 yuan."
Ye Shuang took out his phone and scanned the code, then showed it to Bai Yuyou. "Learn this, and you don't have to bother with cash."
Bai Yuyou seemed to understand but not really.
But Ye Shuang wasn't in a hurry. Then he made several payments at other vegetable stalls and taught Bai Yuyou how to use it.
In Ye Shuang's city, people basically bought vegetables for one meal or one day at a time. So he planned to take Bai Yuyou with him every time he went to buy vegetables. At least learning how to buy and cook was much more nutritious than eating instant noodles.
Although you could also order takeout. For example, when Ye Shuang didn't have time before, he ate takeout for every meal. Or he would just have a cup of coffee. But cooking was a basic skill that should be learned.
After simply buying a meal with three dishes and one soup, Ye Shuang led Bai Yuyou home.
During this time, he also picked up a package from the Cainiao station and bought a SIM card at another mobile phone store. Although the monitoring equipment hadn't arrived yet, the phone had already arrived the next day. It had to be said that the speed of Nifeng Express was always quite good.
After putting the vegetables on the table beside them, Ye Shuang asked Bai Yuyou to sit next to him, and then inserted the card and started teaching her how to use a smartphone.
But Bai Yuyou still couldn't quite grasp the appropriate distance when getting along with others. She almost pressed herself against Ye Shuang.
The warm "slime" was next to him through the thin clothes, and the occasional touches made Ye Shuang try his best to calm down and choose to ignore it, and then continued to patiently teach Bai Yuyou how to use the phone.
"Okay, you try it."
Bai Yuyou took the phone that Ye Shuang handed over and started playing with it. Perhaps these things were quite novel to her, and she couldn't put it down for a while.
When Ye Shuang saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile. But then, there was a click sound beside him.
He looked over and found that Bai Yuyou had accidentally pressed the selfie button, and both of them were in the photo.
In the photo, neither of them was looking at the camera. Ye Shuang was smiling faintly, and Bai Yuyou happened to turn her head to look at him. The scene was frozen at this frame, and there was an indescribable harmony in this photo.
"Delete it." Ye Shuang said. "This photo didn't turn out well."
But Bai Yuyou covered the phone and shook her head. "No."
"Why?"
"I want to keep it." Bai Yuyou hugged the phone and said.
"Alright." Maybe it was the girl's first selfie, so she didn't want to delete it.
Ye Shuang got up to cook, and Bai Yuyou put down the phone and followed him into the kitchen like a little tail.
"Just in time to teach you how to cook." Originally, Ye Shuang wanted Bai Yuyou to play with the phone for a while longer. But when he saw her following, he started teaching her how to cook.
"Let's start with peeling garlic, it's simple." Ye Shuang demonstrated it to Bai Yuyou. It was really easy, and Bai Yuyou learned it at a glance.
Just as Ye Shuang thought, Bai Yuyou didn't have a mental illness. She had a strong learning ability. Although she was a bit clumsy, she was definitely a normal person.
It was just that no one had really taught her how to live.
Soon, Bai Yuyou peeled half a bowl of garlic. Looking at her fingers covered in garlic juice, she subconsciously put them in her mouth.
The next second, she stuck out her tongue because it was too spicy.
"Hehe." There was a laugh beside her. Bai Yuyou turned her head and saw Ye Shuang smiling. "The taste of raw garlic is quite strong. Don't put your fingers in your mouth casually next time."
And seeing Ye Shuang smiling so happily, Bai Yuyou suddenly felt that her tongue wasn't so spicy anymore, just a bit numb.
At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the kitchen window, dyeing the kitchen orange-yellow. It also elongated the shadows of the two of them until the ends of the shadows overlapped, as if they were embracing each other.
