Passive Voice - Chapter 13
Lu Yao had a miserable few days towards the end of the year.
Almost do not eat, do not sleep, soaked in the Internet and the dictionary.
But when he thought about it, he might be able to help Chu Zhihan a little bit. He was so energized.
Maybe it was with the idea of “although I can’t accept his feelings, but as a friend I can also do a lot for him”.
By the time he finally finished the whole thing, he hadn’t closed his eyes for 72 hours. He hadn’t closed his eyes for 72 hours. Lying on the table, he fell asleep.
Until his mother outside the door, “Xiaoyao Xiaoyao” desperately ringing the door, he realized that the time agreed with Chu Zhihan had already passed 3, 4 hours. Picked up the cell phone to see there are countless Chu Zhi Han’s missed calls. He himself actually slept through the thunder.
He collected the scattered documents on the table, haphazardly put on the jacket and opened the door to go out, “Mom I have something to go out, you eat dinner first by yourself without waiting ……”
Only then did he realize that Chu Zhihan was sitting quietly next to the coffee table in his house.
Seeing Lu Yao with an unshaven beard, crooked glasses, a bird’s nest head, and heavy black circles under his eyes like a national treasure, Chu Zhi Han just stood up and nodded slightly, “I didn’t pick up after calling you so many times, so I came over to take a look.”
Lu Yao hands him the file bag, “I fell asleep when I was done, so I didn’t hear the sound, I’m really sorry to trouble you to still make a trip.”
Chu Zhi Han didn’t make any polite remarks, he didn’t even open the file bag, he took out an envelope and gave it to him, “I’ve worked hard for you.”
Lu Yao was a bit embarrassed, “Why don’t you take a look?”
Chu Zhi Han smiled, “I can’t trust others, but I can’t trust you?” She nodded to Lu Yao’s mom, “Auntie, I still have some things to do, I’ll leave first.”
Lu Yao’s mom was a bit frustrated, “You’re such a child, every time I leave you for dinner, you refuse to eat, you don’t believe in Auntie’s craftsmanship?”
“It’s really a bit of an emergency, it’s me who doesn’t have the good fortune to eat, next time if you have the chance you’ll definitely come and eat the home cooked food made by auntie.” Chu Zhi Han smiled faintly, “Lu Yao, I’ll leave first. You have a good rest. Contact again when you have time.”
“Good. Shall I send you down?”
“No need. You stay with Auntie.”
Lu Yao looked at the envelope in her hand. He only felt that it was much thicker than the last one, and not just the “second half” of the appointment.
Lu Yao smiled a bit mockingly.
He and Chu Zhi Han, now seems to be the kind of ordinary but friends.
But isn’t this …… the result he hoped for?
“Xiao Han this kid is really good,” mom said joyfully, “Such a good kid, I wonder if he has a girlfriend yet?”
Lu Yao pushed her mom, “You want to be a matchmaker again~ Why don’t you introduce your son to a good one first?”
“I was thinking about that little cousin of yours ……”
“Mom, she’s only 16.”
“It doesn’t matter, when a girl reaches 18, she’s almost ready to get married… Look at Xiaohan, he’s got a good heart and good looks… If I had a daughter to marry him, I don’t know how good it would be…”
Lu Yao “haha” a few times. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
In the evening, when the cell phone rang, Lu Yao was about to enter the bathroom to take a shower. When she heard it ring, she rushed out in her boxers to answer the phone.
“Hello?”
“Mr. Lu~”
The caller was Zhou Xiaoduo, and after chatting a bit about pork being expensive again and the price of cooking oil going up again and a certain brand of eye shadow being very effective, Lu Yao hung up the phone tiredly. Then he tiredly went into the bathroom to take a shower.
As he was washing, he heard his cell phone ringing again. Lu Yao thought to herself that this Miss Zhou can’t be spoiled for her. So he slowly and methodically scrubbed the bath and washed his hair.
When he finished washing and picked up his cell phone, he realized that the caller was Chu Zhi Han.
When he called back, the other party has been occupied.
Lu Yao looked at the ceiling on the bed for a while.
At this time, he was kind of looking forward to the man’s phone calls every now and then, patiently listening to him talk about his work, his relationships, his naughty schoolgirls, and even his private matters with his girlfriend.
Having such a friend had actually been a source of quiet complacency for him.
