Chapter 25: Taking Care of Your Teeth
Chapter 25: Taking Care of Your Teeth
The taxi driver looked back at Si Ke, "Girl, the man behind the white car is your boyfriend, right! You follow really closely, don't chase after him!"
Si Ke said angrily, "It's not my boyfriend!"
"Oops! That looks like the boy chasing you. Look, I brake, he brakes! He's about to hit my ass!"
Si Ke was irritable and angry, and made a "hum" from his nostrils.
The master was happy when he saw the little girl was angry, "Looks like it's the mad bee!" The master was very talkative. Si Ke was not in a pretty mood at first, but he was a little confused by Lu Xingchuan's agitation. Laughed, will Lu Xingchuan also have a day to become his own crazy bee and wave butterfly?Si Ke calmed down a bit, and said, "Ordinary friends, you care a little too much."
"It must be that I like you. Otherwise, which man would like to control women? It's too late to hide!"
Si Ke was thoughtful, and looked back at the car that was following him.During the red light, the two cars were very close, and she could clearly see Lu Xingchuan's micro-expression.In fact, from the perspective of others, his face still looks like a wooden stake, expressionless.When Ke Si Ke turned around, he saw some annoyance and regret in his eyes.
She didn't doubt her own judgment, and she didn't know when, Lu Xingchuan in her eyes and others' eyes began to be different.
He's just not very expressive, just not very expressive.
In fact, he also loves to smile, especially in front of him, but it's not as obvious as ordinary people's smile.
Si Ke suddenly regretted it, shouldn't she just run out of the car like that, would she die if she said one more word?It's not just a matter of explaining.
However, he was still a little bit angry, what was meant by "gifted by another man", and who exactly did Lu Xingchuan think of himself.
This time, Si Ke asked the driver to enter the community and stop directly at the door of the house. From the corner of her eye, she caught Lu Xingchuan getting out of the car and followed behind her.She quickly walked into the small garden in front of the house and closed the fence.
"Ke Ke." Lu Xingchuan called out from the door.
Si Ke really wanted to turn around, but she didn't.Because there is a question lingering in his heart, Lu Xingchuan, why should he be angry?She suddenly remembered what she said to Wang Mengmeng, to chase Lu Xingchuan, or let Lu Xingchuan chase her.
He cares.I kind of like it.
Otherwise, why would such an aloof person invite him to dinner, pick him up and send him home, and even deliver him to eat vinegar on weekends.She suddenly felt that she should hang out with Lu Xingchuan for a while.
Si Ke dismantled all 13 blind boxes in one go. This is not her style. She originally thought that she would dismantle one every few days, and enjoy happiness and happiness slowly.
But it is true that I am upset, and I always want to find some stimulation to divert my attention.But after opening 13 blind boxes, this bad feeling did not disappear at all, on the contrary, it tortured me even more and made me feel very uncomfortable.
Do you still want to hang out with Lu Xingchuan?Are you afraid that you are being left alone by him?
It's a bad feeling.
The time suddenly became long, and she felt that she had nothing to do.Si Ke turned on and off the phone back and forth for a long while, but did not receive the WeChat message from Lu Xingchuan.
So, he backed off so easily?I don't like myself very much either.
Grandma yelled several times downstairs before Si Ke recovered from her depression and went downstairs, "Grandma, what do you want me to do?"
"Why are you so unhappy?" Seeing her granddaughter's expressionless face, Li Guilan was obviously in a bad mood.
"Girls, emotional animals, grandma, don't talk to me, maybe it's getting dark, that's fine. Maybe it's coming to my aunt, I don't know, I can't control it." Si Ke said in a low voice.
Li Guilan smiled. Her granddaughter is the most optimistic and cheerful. Unhappiness is on the bright side, and she can say it. "Then come over and eat cakes, sweet ones, which stimulate the secretion of dopamine and make people feel happier."
"Grandma already knows about dopamine? It's amazing." Si Ke said these words weakly.
"Just now Xingchuan said that he went out to buy cakes for his grandma in the morning, and he brought me a copy by the way." Li Guilan smiled deliberately, "But oh, your grandma Tian has high blood sugar, just like me, tea can We old people can’t bear cream cakes after two bites. That’s really strange, what does Xing Chuan buy such a cute cream cake? This one is for a peach heart, and this one is for a little princess. Tsk tsk, to coax children.”
"I want to eat!" Si Ke ran towards the restaurant.On the red velvet cake stood a chocolate card of a princess with red hair, he must have bought it on purpose.
The cakes are all delivered, but why not talk on WeChat?
Boys are really weird creatures.
Si Ke felt a stomach ache after only two bites, and she came to be a big aunt.
No wonder, I was a little angry today.Could it be that he became a little bit more tempered towards Lu Xingchuan today?
Because her stomach hurt a little and she felt suddenly very tired, Si Ke fell asleep before she knew it.When she woke up again, it was already dark. When she went to the bathroom, she realized that the sanitary napkin was gone.
In the food delivery app, the store that she uses most often shows that the delivery capacity has reached the line today, and she can make an appointment for delivery tomorrow morning. There are still two or three stores that can deliver, and they all start in 60 minutes, so she had to go out by herself.
In Beijing at the end of June, the cicadas kept singing at night, and it was very hot. Perhaps it was because of my aunt, Si Ke felt a chill down her back.He put on a pair of black long-sleeved trousers and went out.
Lu Xingchuan, who was standing on the balcony, had been guarding for half a day, and finally at night, he saw Si Ke in black go out.He hurriedly picked up his mobile phone and went downstairs.He thought in his heart that it was not safe for a girl to go out at night, so he should secretly follow behind Si Ke to protect her, and also wanted to see if she was still angry.
The large supermarket near Yazhu Garden has two floors. You need to go around the first floor first before you can go up to the girls' products counter on the second floor. A small convenience store closest to home.
She thought that she would go back to school tomorrow, buy two packs, one long and one short, enough for tonight, then order some from the website when she gets home, and have them delivered directly to her home for stocking.
After exiting the gate of the community, turn left, and there is a river that is not wide.In the early years, the river was a sewage channel. Later, when the surrounding park was built, it was transformed into a garden moat passing through the park.Si Ke walked on the east bank of the small river, and Lu Xingchuan secretly followed on the west bank of the small river. The straight-line distance between the two banks, counting the embankments, did not exceed ten meters.Lu Xingchuan didn't speak, but just followed her secretly, and Si Ke naturally didn't know.
When she left the convenience store, Si Ke carried her bag and walked home, Lu Xingchuan still followed behind her a few meters away.When turning right into the community, Si Ke caught a glimpse of Lu Xingchuan behind him. She turned her head and stopped, took a look, but Lu Xingchuan didn't have any intention of speaking, so she entered the community.
"Ke Ke." Lu Xingchuan quickly chased after her.
Si Ke's pace was also quick.
"Ke Ke?" Lu Xingchuan called her again.
Si Ke thought to himself, he hasn't sent himself a WeChat message for a long time, ignore him, he must insist on ignoring him.
"Ke Ke, your sanitary napkin fell off." Lu Xingchuan said.
Si Ke stopped, turned around, there was nothing on the pitch-black ground, and looked at the bag in his hand, only then realized that he had been fooled.She glared at him, Lu Xingchuan, turned bad.
She simply didn't leave, and stood where she was, looking at Lu Xingchuan.
There was only one step between the two, when suddenly Lu Xingchuan squatted down.He raised his hand and lifted the trousers on Si Ke's right leg. Didn't the ankle hurt when he jumped around in the daytime?He looked at it by the moonlight and street lamps, "It's all swollen, and I can still run so fast."
When the warm fingers lifted up the trouser legs, they scratched her calf seemingly indistinctly, as if there was an electric shock, which made people stunned.Si Ke didn't speak, and took half a step back with his right foot, breaking away from Lu Xingchuan's hand.
"I shouldn't have said that. I apologize to you." Lu Xingchuan stood up and said, "It was my expression that was wrong. What I want to say is that I can also send you off."
"Why do you want to send it?" Si Ke asked.She said silently in her heart, if he said he liked it, if he confessed, then forgive him.She was looking forward to it, feeling extremely nervous.
"I can afford it, and if you like it, I'll give it to you." Lu Xingchuan said.
"Then a lot of people will be given to me." Si Ke was a little angry, didn't he understand?What does he mean by catching people like this.
Si Ke decided to speak clearly, "Lu Xingchuan, what is your relationship with me? You want to give me something?"
At this point, Lu Xingchuan didn't understand what Si Ke meant, she was just asking for a frankness.But in this case, can you say it yourself?He hesitated.
Counting five numbers silently in her heart, Si Ke didn't wait for Lu Xingchuan's answer, she asked: "So, don't you even count the neighbor's sister, friends, and schoolmates?"
"Keke, can you give me some time? I have some things that need to be arranged." He felt that the word promise must be able to be said.
Si Ke sneered and turned around.Therefore, Lu Xingchuan's liking for her needs some time to think about it, "Then forget it. Don't waste time thinking about it."
Lu Xingchuan wanted to hold Si Ke's hand, but his hand stopped in mid-air and did not continue.The shadow on the ground was displayed on the stone slab paved by the moonlight, and the hand in the shadow slowly slid back to his side, but he still didn't reach out in the end.
On Monday, Si Ke had classes and left for school at six o'clock in the morning.Lu Xingchuan knew that Si Ke would definitely not be traveling with him today, so he drove directly to Smile Mouth.
"Welcome to Smile Mouth! Do you have an appointment?" The voice of the lady at the front desk is clear and polite.
Lu Xingchuan walked into Smile's mouth and stopped at the window on the wall by the door.He looked at the photos of the doctors in the dental clinic displayed on the wall and the content of their treatments, and at a glance, he recognized the doctor who gave Si Ke a gift yesterday. It said that the man was called "Nian Sixian".He pointed to the person in the photo and said, "I don't have an appointment, I want to see Dr. Nian Sixian."
"Normally, there are the fewest people seeing the dentist on Monday. You are lucky. Today is Monday, and you don't need to make an appointment. You have chosen Dr. Nian, who is the best in our clinic. Please sit on the sofa. Doctor Nian's assistant will come to the lobby later. I'll pick you up." The lady at the front desk took a form for Lu Xingchuan to fill out.
Lu Xingchuan nodded, and within a few minutes, a radio voice rang out in the lobby: "Please come to Consulting Room No. 1, Lu Xingchuan." A girl came to the lobby, claiming to be Doctor Nian's assistant, and led Lu Xingchuan towards the consulting room inside.
Dr. Nian Sixian is about 180. Although he is wearing a mask that covers the lower half of his face, he can still be seen, with delicate features.He took the patient's information from the assistant's hand, and was stunned when he saw the name.He looked up at Lu Xingchuan, began to look carefully, and asked, "Is there something wrong with your teeth?"
Lu Xingchuan said, "Do a basic inspection."
"Then go sit on the dental chair." Nian Sixian said to the assistant again: "Xiaobai, take the probe and oral mirror."
When the incandescent light on the dental chair was turned on, Lu Xingchuan closed his eyes. Doctor Nian took a probe and a dental mirror, sat on a small round stool, and examined each of Lu Xingchuan's teeth one by one.
After turning off the lights, he put the used medical equipment into the discarded metal box, got up and went to the corner of the consulting room, took off the disposable gloves and mask, threw them into the yellow medical waste trash can, washed his hands in the sink, and sat down. Back to the computer.
After Nian Sixian took off the mask, he showed his very delicate face, looked at Lu Xingchuan with a smile on his face, and said, "Your teeth are very healthy, you are not here to see the dentist." He gestured to the assistant , ask the assistant to make tea.
"I'm here for Si Ke." Lu Xingchuan sat across from Nian Sixian's desk, "Doctor Nian, what's your relationship with Si Ke?"
Nian Sixian thought it was interesting, so he deliberately didn't answer, and asked instead: "What do you think is the relationship?"
Lu Xingchuan asked again: "Doctor Nian, how old are you?"
"28." Nian Sixian smiled, looking at Lu Xingchuan leisurely.
"Si Ke is only eighteen." Lu Xingchuan said.
"I know," Nian Sixian suppressed a smile, "So?"
"You are not suitable." Lu Xingchuan said, "She is still a little girl."
Nian Sixian couldn't hold back anymore and interrupted him, "Lu Xingchuan, I know you, I heard Ke Ke tell me several times."
"She told me?" Lu Xingchuan's eyes flashed with doubt.
"Well," Nian Sixian put his hands on the computer desk, with a gesture of watching the excitement and not thinking it's a big deal, smiling all over his face, and asked interestingly: "How old are you?"
Lu Xingchuan: "24 years old."
Nian Sixian smiled, "What a coincidence, my boyfriend is also 24 years old."
"..." Lu Xingchuan found that things were quite different from what he had imagined.No, it was completely beyond his imagination. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer the conversation.
I heard Nian Sixian say again: "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Nian Sixian. My father's surname is Nian, and my mother's surname is Si. The name comes from Li Shangyin's "Jin Se", 'One String, One Pillar, Sihua Nian'. "
"So, you belong to Keke..."
Nian Sixian: "Cousin."
"I'm sorry, Doctor Nian, I misunderstood." Lu Xingchuan touched his forehead. He really didn't feel right recently. He didn't even have the basic logical thinking in his head, so he hurriedly apologized and wanted to quit.
Nian Sixian followed him out of the consulting room, with a warm and friendly voice, "I'll take you out, there's something I just wanted to ask you."
The author says:
*For the story of Nian Sixian, see "He Gave Me a Candy". It is a BL text. If you like it, you can read it. It is very short, 12 words, and the full text is free. "White Sugar and Blueberry" was the subline CP in the article when I was writing "He Gave Me a Candy". I originally wanted to write a side story, but later I thought it could be written separately.
