Chapter 682 Young Man Admires 27
Inside the car, Lingyao handed him a package as usual, which was a portion of candied sweet potatoes and sugar-roasted chestnuts. They were bought not long ago and were still warm in his hands.
After a while, Zhang Dingyu took it and spread her fingers in front of Lingyao, handing her a handful of peeled chestnuts, which were still a little red due to their heat.
"Sister...you should eat something." For some reason, Zhang Dingyu now found it difficult to call out the word "sister". She always felt itchy all over.
Lingyao glanced at the chestnut in his hand, then approached him unexpectedly, shortening the distance between them.
Zhang Dingyu supported herself on the leather chair with her other hand, clenched it, her Adam's apple rolled, and her breathing and heartbeat slowed down to twice the speed in her ears.
Lingyao's clear eyes just stared at him, her black pupils pressing down.
Zhang Dingyu felt that all his thoughts seemed to be seen through by these eyes at any time. He hurriedly lowered his eyelashes and avoided their sight.
Fortunately, her straightforward gaze only lasted for a few seconds. She quickly withdrew her gaze, snatched the chestnut from his palm, and asked casually.
"What's wrong with you today?" He spoke hesitantly, and his eyes were like a pair of flashes, flashing non-stop.
He looked like he had done something bad and was speechless in the face of her.
Zhang Dingyu didn't say anything, and she couldn't say anything, so she said in a flat voice: "Nothing."
Lingyao looked at him suspiciously for two seconds, but finally did not continue asking.
The child is still young, so it is normal for him to have his own secrets. Give him some private space.
The next second—
"What's wrong with him? Could he have fallen in love prematurely at school?" Lingyao pulled out the system with a cold face.
Baofu: "...We agreed to give people space."
Lingyao: "I'm giving God of Wealth baby private space, not giving you private space!"
Get rich: "..."
……
Knowing that Zhang Dingyu was not hesitating because of her premature love, Lingyao really didn't ask any more questions.
After picking up Zhang Dingrui, it was only six o'clock in the afternoon and there were still two hours before the birthday party. Lingyao was sitting on the sofa and preparing to order takeout for them. Zhang Dingyu heard it and said that it was still in time for him to make it now, and asked her what she wanted to eat.
"No, you guys eat, I'll go out to eat later."
Zhang Dingyu was about to walk towards the kitchen, but then he paused, retracted his legs, and looked at Lingyao.
"...Aren't you going home for dinner?" In fact, what Zhang Dingyu wanted to ask more was, is she going out so late? What is she going to do?
Lingyao hummed and flipped through the phone in her hand without looking up, so naturally she couldn't see Zhang Dingyu's hesitant lips.
Before Zhang Dingyu could think of what to say, Zhang Dingrui pulled the corner of her clothes.
Zhang Dingyu lowered her eyes and looked into Zhang Dingrui's eyes, which looked like he wanted to say something.
He looked at his brother, then at Lingyao, as if he wanted to talk to his brother alone.
Zhang Dingyu frowned and pulled Zhang Dingrui to a corner to listen to what he had to say and to see if there was anything he needed to say without her noticing.
"Brother, my classmate invited me to his house this Saturday to do homework... Can I go?"
Zhang Dingrui spoke cautiously; he didn't know whether he should go or not.
Of course he wanted to go. From childhood to adulthood, because there was no adult at home and he was ordered around by Zhang Qinghe's family as a errand boy, Zhang Dingrui had no time to make friends, and no one wanted to be friends with him.
That's why he almost subconsciously agreed when his classmates invited him, and he couldn't resist such temptation at all.
However, after agreeing, there was endless anxiety and panic.
His life is already very good now, how can he be so greedy!
He is going to visit his friend's house tomorrow, and he only has his friend's phone number. So no matter how to contact him or how to get there, he has to trouble his sister.
Although his sister is the best person in his heart, he is still nervous, and it is because of her kindness that his greed is further highlighted.
Zhang Dingrui bit his lip and then let go.
Without waiting for Zhang Dingyu to reply, he continued speaking.
"Brother, I'm not going. Can you please call An Yi and tell her that I can't go because of something?" He knew his brother had a cell phone.
Zhang Dingyu lowered her head and looked at the swirl of hair on Zhang Dingrui's head, and was silent for a moment.
"How much is the phone number?"
Zhang Dingrui took out the note that he had kept in his pocket for a day. It was wrinkled and it was obvious that it was torn from a notebook. The handwriting was crooked and it was obviously a child's mark.
Zhang Dingyu took over: "An Yi, your friend?"
Zhang Dingrui hummed, feeling a little depressed: "He is the one sitting in front of me."
Zhang Dingyu did not take out his cell phone to make a call, but instead folded the note into his palm and put it in his pocket.
"You can go. I'll take you there tomorrow, but you have to ask your sister...her permission. You can only go if she allows you to, okay?"
Zhang Dingrui's eyes lit up and then dimmed in an instant, and he whispered, "I know." He was actually a little afraid of that sister.
Lingyao watched the two brothers walk away and said something to each other. After a while, they came back.
Zhang Dingyu also pushed Zhang Dingrui in front of her.
Lingyao looked at Zhang Dingrui, who was standing in front of her and nervously snapping his fingers.
His face was calm, but his mind was racing.
What is this doing?
Fortunately, Zhang Dingrui didn't pinch his fingers for long. He closed his eyes, pinched his fingers, and said out loud the words that had been on his lips for several times.
"Sister, my friend asked me to go to his house tomorrow to do homework, is that okay? My brother will take me there." Afraid that Lingyao would find it troublesome, he quickly added the last sentence.
Lingyao's originally tense lips finally relaxed. This was the whole thing after all the fuss.
"Okay." She agreed, and then asked Zhang Dingyu, "Do you know the way?"
Zhang Dingyu pursed his lips: "Well, I downloaded a map." He asked Chen Xin this question the last time he heard him say that he was going to take the subway back this week.
He thought that if he could recognize the route and take the bus in the future, he wouldn't have to bother her to drive him around all the time.
Zhang Dingrui heard Lingyao agree so quickly and smoothly that he couldn't believe it. He was stunned for a while before he reacted.
He was young, and not as good at hiding his emotions as Zhang Dingyu. The overwhelming joy made him cheer, but the next second his face flushed and he held down his restless hands and feet.
He couldn't contain his excitement and thanked Lingyao: "Thank you, sister. I'll go back to do my homework first. I'll see what I don't know and take it to Anyi tomorrow." Anyi is the monitor of their class and has excellent grades.
Lingyao nodded, and he ran away in a circle.
Zhang Dingyu also thanked Lingyao, then turned and went into the kitchen.
The cool and clean water stream flowed down his fingers. Zhang Dingyu washed the vegetables twice to remove all the dirt and then shook off the excess water droplets on the leaves and placed them in the vegetable basket beside him for later use.
The warm yellow light from above his head fell down, casting a layer of warm golden light on him.
Lingyao was originally browsing her phone, but her eyes gradually focused on him.
