The late-night snack was quite sumptuous.

Besides the crab, the bluefin tuna sashimi and salmon sashimi were very satisfying.

Li Heng asked Xiao Han: "First time eating raw, are you used to it?"

In her previous life, this girl loved eating raw fish, but her mother, Ms. Wei Shiman, loved this even more.

Xiao Han picked up a piece of sashimi and dipped it in some sauce, "Delicious."

Old Fu, who had made a mistake earlier, fully exerted his enthusiasm and dog-leggedly cut a large plate of bluefin tuna slices and placed them in front of her:

"Classmate Xiao Han, if it's delicious, eat more, first time coming to our Old Fu's house, we don't have anything else, but this stuff is definitely enough, haha. Later, let this guy Li Heng take some back, if you want to eat it, just let him make it for you."

Xiao Han squeezed out the brightest smile on her face: "Thank you, Old Fu."

She followed the local customs very quickly, following along to call him Old Fu.

Li Heng suddenly frowned, "No, Old Fu, I observe your knife skills don't look like you don't know how to cook, why were you so obsessed with sponging meals before? Honestly, are you being lazy?"

Being exposed, Old Fu smiled awkwardly, grinned and said: "Hey! Indeed a bit lazy, but it can't all be blamed on me. Those years in the United States, I professionally studied Western food, and the neighbor next door was an islander, that guy often came to my house for free meals, so I learned some Japanese cuisine knowledge from him."

At this point, Old Fu raised his knife and fork and said: "Advance declaration, if you want to eat steak or something, you can find me Old Fu, Chinese food is not needed, my half-baked level is not much different from Yu Laoshi's."

Hearing this, Li Heng turned his head and asked: "Wife, do you want to eat steak? I'll go buy beef tomorrow."

Old Fu pointed his finger at him in the void, quite speechless, how can someone be so good at pleasing women? Why couldn't he learn it himself?

Xiao Han was very receptive, had a shallow little dimple and said: "Would it be too much trouble for you?"

Li Heng looked at the fake Daoist.

Old Fu waved his hands repeatedly: "What trouble or not, we don't go in for that, having a beautiful lady love to eat what I make, I'm too happy to be troubled, I'll go arrange it tomorrow."

Eating and chatting, the late-night snack lasted for nearly 2 hours without knowing it, and the atmosphere was quite good. It was just that Chen Mohan seemed not to like to speak, had been eating slowly on the side, listening to the three talk but not chiming in much, only chiming in a few sentences when the topic was happy.

After 10 o'clock at night, Li Heng took Xiao Han back to the No. 26 small building.

Once the two left, Chen Mohan curiously asked: "What charm does this Li Heng have? How come the girls around him are one more beautiful than the other?"

It would be fine not to mention this, but mentioning it made Old Fu even more sour.

Old Fu bit his cheek and said: "This little thing is just relying on his good face, when I was young, I was even more romantic than him."

Chen Mohan bit the tip of her chopsticks: "Were you romantic?"

Old Fu was stubborn: "That's right."

Chen Mohan reached out to take off her hair tie and let down her tied hair: "How about you try being romantic with me tonight?"

Old Fu was so scared that he didn't dare to speak again.

This little Chen had been pestering him for several years, but he didn't dare to touch her, otherwise Siya would definitely run away without a trace. Sometimes he also felt it was quite magical, many people said the two looked similar, but he just had no feelings for the girl in front of him.

Returning home, the two simply washed up, and later sat in the attic and chatted for a while.

In the middle, Xiao Han suddenly brought up the matter of the two fighting over a stool in junior high school, "Actually, that day just happened to be when I was in a bad mood, I'm not like that usually."

Li Heng asked: "What are you like when you're in a good mood usually?"

Xiao Han tilted her head slightly, her eyebrows and eyes full of smiles, cleared her throat and said: "Like this."

Li Heng asked: "When you're in a bad mood, you just find a reason to scold people? Scolding people to your heart's content with a sharp tongue?"

Xiao Han lowered her head and laughed, a bit embarrassed to say: "How could that be, I'll just take it as you praising me for being eloquent."

Then she added: "It wasn't that satisfying afterwards either."

Li Heng was surprised: "I was almost scolded to death by you guys at that time, I couldn't catch my breath for half a month, and it wasn't satisfying?"

Xiao Han looked up at the stars in the sky and said pitifully: "Your Lady Chen came to trouble me that night, I wasn't as tall as her at that time, I didn't beat her."

Hearing this, Li Heng's eyebrows raised, he really wanted to laugh, but tried his best to hold it in.

In his previous life, she and Zijin fought, the outcome was basically fifty-fifty, generally speaking, Xiao Han, who occupied the name of a legal wife, was still in the upper hand.

It was just that he really didn't expect it, didn't expect that she had been suppressed by force by Zijin in junior high school.

Seeing his appearance, Xiao Han tilted her head and stared at him: "How tall is she now?"

Li Heng didn't want to answer, but couldn't hold out and said: "Same as you, 166."

She asked again: "How heavy?"

Li Heng subconsciously said: "About 100 jin."

"Oh, it seems Mr. Li went to Jingcheng for National Day and hugged her again." Xiao Han withdrew her gaze and cast it into the night sky again.

Li Heng: "..."

The silence came so suddenly!

Li Heng didn't deny or quibble.

She didn't make a scene or show understanding, as calm as an ancient well.

For a time, she looked at the distant night sky, and Li Heng looked at her. For a long time, he reached out and grabbed the back of her cold hand, still silent, just accompanying her to sit there withered.

Time passed second by second, don't know how long passed...

When the earth was covered with a thin layer of white frost, the sleepy Xiao Han tilted her head and leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep, her calm face was so beautiful, so beautiful that Li Heng couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her cheek.

Don't know if it startled her, after being kissed, Xiao Han changed to the other cheek facing him, her eyes still tightly closed, leaving some eyelashes trembling slightly.

Li Heng laughed, and lowered his head to kiss her face again.

This time Xiao Han said in a muffled voice: "The three ladies only kissed twice, you kiss one more, from now on, the kisses of Lady Song and Lady Chen, this young lady will suffer a loss and take them for them."

Li Heng's mouth twitched, but he didn't follow her logic, but hugged her, carried her in his arms, lowered his head and took the opportunity to kiss her lips.

Feeling the strangeness between her lips and teeth, Xiao Han opened her eyes and looked at him, thought seriously for a good while, and then closed her eyes again.

Halfway through, because he used too much force, the two fell directly onto the swing, she sighed bitterly in her heart, her hands helplessly clutching his waist and abdomen, letting him entangle fiercely.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Just when the two were indulging in the lip-chasing game, a knock on the door suddenly sounded downstairs, accompanied by a shout: "Mai Sui."

This was Yu Shuheng's voice, she had knocked on the door like this every night for the previous week, and the time was always pinched around 11 o'clock.

The phrase "Mai Sui" directly woke Xiao Han up, she left his lips and quietly stared at the man who was half-hugging her.

The intimacy was just right, Li Heng, whose good thing was interrupted, was so depressed, he had the heart to kill, and whispered: "It's Yu Laoshi."

The atmosphere was silent again, for a long, long time she got up and said: "I'm going to rest, good night, Mr. Li."

This "good night" was neither high nor low, neither low nor loud, without any emotional color, making Li Heng's heart sink straight down.

Damn it!

Who did I offend? One by one not stopping?

One "Mai Sui" here, one "Mai Sui" there, making it seem like Mai Sui is the hostess here, are they thinking I'm living too comfortably?

Damn it! Really can't wash it clean even if I jump into the Yellow River. After seeing the master bedroom door close, he, full of complaints, set off for the first floor.

Pulled the door bolt and opened the door.

The moment they faced each other inside and outside the door, he adjusted his mood and greeted, "Teacher, you just got back?"

"Hmm."

Yu Shuheng smiled and nodded, about to walk into the door.

Seeing this, Li Heng hurriedly said when she was about to pass by: "Mai Sui is not here today."

Yu Shuheng was stunned, stopped her steps, and turned halfway on the spot to look at him.

Facing each other, he didn't quite like these ink-black eyes, beautiful as they were, but too cold, and there was inexplicable pressure, "My partner is here, Mai Sui went back to the dormitory."

Yu Shuheng suddenly realized, and later asked: "Xiao Han?"

Sure enough, this woman couldn't be deceived, sure enough, the high school English teacher told her everything, Li Heng nodded.

Yu Shuheng didn't hesitate after hearing it, directly exited the threshold, and returned to her own small building.

Li Heng wanted to say something but stopped, wanting to tell her to sleep in the second bedroom, but swallowed the words when they reached his lips.

Forget it, forget it, one Mai Sui was already enough to give him a headache, Yu Laoshi was born so well, better not come to join the fun.

Standing at the door for a while, until the lights in the No. 25 small building opposite turned on, he closed the door and walked to the second floor.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Wife, open the door."

Arriving in front of the master bedroom, Li Heng raised his hand and patted the door lightly.

No response inside.

Li Heng shouted: "If you don't open the door, I'll climb in through the window."

This time a sound came from the room, she said crisply: "Rest well, dear Mr. Li, tomorrow's matters, tomor..."

Li Heng touched the delicate paint door panel with his right hand, and said for a long time: "You're right, tomorrow is a brand new day. Please also believe in me."

Xiao Han wasn't asleep, looking up at the ceiling.

In the dark night, the ceiling looked a bit gloomy and ferocious, a bit weird, low, like an approaching doomsday, suppressing an indescribable pain.

Tomorrow, she is still young, still has many tomorrows.

In junior high school, there was Chen Zijin blocking the way, in high school, she encountered the biggest rival Song Yu, even if there was one more Mai Sui in university, as a smart woman with such dazzling beauty, she wouldn't cry or make a scene, it's not like she hadn't experienced the darkest moments on this road of love, fall down and climb up again.

She doesn't believe in fate, only does her best, patience is a great wisdom. Because she loves him.

Leaving the master bedroom door, Li Heng didn't go to the second bedroom, that bed had the scent of Mai Sui and Yu Laoshi, if he really drilled in, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.

He looked at the wind in the attic, and found that don't know when it started, the fake Daoist also appeared on the balcony, meditating.

Before long, Yu Laoshi also came out from the second-floor living room, walked to the attic, sat upright in front of the astronomical telescope, drinking wine while fiddling with the telescope to observe the distant space.

Not sleeping in the middle of the night, these two are really crazy!

For the two neighbors who ruined his good thing tonight, Li Heng was too lazy to greet them, and after staying for a while, he went directly into the study to read.

When the lights in his study turned on, Yu Shuheng glanced at him, then raised her right wrist to check her watch, and then fell into deep thought.

Half an hour later, two high-beam lights broke the tranquility of Lushan Village, a Jeep 212 drove in slowly and stopped in front of the No. 25 small building door.

A tall figure walked down from the car, it was Chen Siya.

The fake Daoist immediately stopped meditating and stared straight at the other party over the railing.

The courtyard door of the No. 25 small building seemed not to be closed, Chen Siya walked straight in, and the next moment arrived at the second-floor attic.

"I was already asleep, you woke me up with a phone call, next time you're afraid of ghosts, call me earlier."

"You don't have a man to manage you, drink some red wine?"

"Still need to use wine to numb yourself, is it really haunted?"

"My psychological effect."

"Then why don't you go home?"

"Used to living here, comfortable alone."

Chen Siya took an empty cup that had been prepared, poured a full cup and said: "Still Romanée-Conti, really luxurious! Count you as having heart, didn't come in vain."

The two sisters touched, and each drank a mouthful.

Later Chen Siya looked at the window with lights on opposite and said "Eh": "Eh, is that Li Heng?"

Yu Shuheng didn't answer.

Because the two houses were really too close, the straight-line distance was just an alley, facing each other with windows open, one could clearly see the people in the study. If the eyesight was better, one could even count how many books were on each shelf.

Chen Siya was confused, "Isn't he a freshman, how come the study is piled with so many books? Must be hundreds or thousands?"

Yu Shuheng smiled and said: "He is addicted to books, every night he will stay up until past midnight."

Chen Siya was dazed, even more puzzled: "Just like reading books that much?"

Casting her gaze on the meticulous Li Heng, Yu Shuheng said: "Of course it's not just a pure hobby, his reading is more useful than ours."

Chen Siya teased: "How useful is it? Is it that confidantes are constant? One Mai Sui in the front, now one more? Forcing you to have nowhere to sleep?"

Yu Shuheng thought for a while, shaking the red wine glass: "In this regard, he is worthy of being your and my teacher."

Chen Siya laughed out loud, very much in agreement: "I believe this, if I were ten years younger, I would definitely be moved by him, at a young age he could actually create 'The Original Scenery of Hometown', really too amazing."

At this point, she lowered her voice and asked: "Are you sure it's original?"

Yu Shuheng nodded: "I asked a specialist to inquire, it is original."

Chen Siya never questioned her best friend's energy, took a deep breath and sighed twice: "Amazing! Amazing!"

She asked: "You have been secretly practicing the ocarina, how is it?"

Yu Shuheng didn't speak at first, and only said after a few minutes: "Always a bit off."

Chen Siya understood in a second: "Then why don't you go ask him for the sheet music?"

Yu Shuheng said: "Originally planned to ask him tonight, didn't..."

The words after "didn't" hadn't been finished, the lights in the second-floor living room of the No. 26 small building opposite suddenly lit up, a head poked out secretly from the master bedroom, looked around in a quirky way, and then came to the coffee table to pour water to drink. It looked like the mouth was dry.

"See clearly?" Chen Siya, who noticed this scene, asked.

"Hmm."

"Tsk tsk, so beautiful, catching up to you, no wonder that Mai Sui was forced to leave."

Yu Shuheng smiled elegantly, didn't make a sound.

She was also surprised, used to hear Runwen say how beautiful Song Yu and Xiao Han were, didn't have a concept at that time, but just saw the real person, immediately believed it.

Yu Shuheng was slightly curious, Xiao Han was already so good-looking, then what did Song Yu, who was rated higher in Runwen's mouth, look like?

After 20 seconds, Xiao Han finished drinking water, turned around and walked to the bedroom, paused halfway, came to the study door, first lowered her head to look at the door crack, seeing lights inside, her right hand instinctively wanted to knock on the door, but just as she raised it above her head, she twisted again.

Hesitating for a long time, finally Xiao Han still put down her hand and quietly retreated to the master bedroom.

Chen Siya found it funny, "Is this a tantrum?"

Yu Shuheng frowned and pondered for a long time, put down the red wine glass and said, "Probably related to me."

"Related to you?" Chen Siya turned her head.
