Chapter 110
Cheng Yuxin paused with her chopsticks, her face slightly flushed.
"Well," she said, "I just... wore some lipstick."
Lin Feng looked at her lips. She was wearing lipstick, a light color that was barely noticeable unless you looked closely.
"It looks good," he said.
Cheng Yuxin's ears turned red instantly.
She lowered her head and continued eating dumplings, eating very slowly, dipping each dumpling in vinegar one by one. But this time she dipped them for a long time, and didn't even notice that the vinegar had dripped onto the table.
Lin Feng didn't say anything more and continued eating.
After finishing their meal, Lin Feng paid the bill. One jin plus half a jin, plus two bowls of dumpling soup, totaled twelve yuan. He took out the money from his pocket, counted out twelve yuan, and placed it on the table.
The proprietress accepted the money, smiling as she said, "Young man, your girlfriend is very beautiful."
Just as Cheng Yuxin was about to explain, Lin Feng spoke up.
"Thank you," he said.
Cheng Yuxin paused for a moment and glanced at him.
Lin Feng's face remained expressionless as he bent down to pick up the ball and walked outside.
Cheng Yuxin followed behind, her heart pounding.
He didn't deny it just now.
He said thank you.
She walked with her head down, her face constantly flushed.
After leaving the dumpling restaurant, the two walked towards the bus stop.
Halfway there, Lin Feng's pager went off.
Drop drop-
He took it off to look at it.
The screen displayed: "Mr. Sun: I heard you won? Come to the stadium tonight, I'll treat you to dinner."
Lin Feng looked at the line of text and smiled.
He tucked the pager back into his waistband.
Cheng Yuxin asked, "Who is it?"
Lin Feng said, "Uncle Sun, you're treating me to dinner tonight."
Cheng Yuxin nodded.
The two walked to the bus stop, and the 742 bus arrived just in time. They boarded and sat down. The bus wasn't crowded, with a few empty seats in the back. Cheng Yuxin sat by the window, and Lin Feng sat next to her.
The car started moving.
Cheng Yuxin looked out the window as the street scene receded into the distance. Suddenly remembering something, she turned her head.
"Lin Feng, when you go home today, are you going to talk to your deskmate, Liu Jian?"
Lin Feng thought for a moment.
"Go ahead and tell me. He's asked me several times already."
Cheng Yuxin nodded.
After a moment of silence, she asked again, "Lin Feng, are you... really going to a sports school?"
Lin Feng leaned back in his seat, looking at the roof of the car.
"Not necessarily," he said. "Sports schools have good training conditions, but if you go to a sports school, you'll have less time for studying."
Cheng Yuxin looked at him.
Lin Feng continued, "I also have to write programs and sell software. In places like sports schools, the training is closed, and you stay there all day long. There's not enough time."
Cheng Yuxin nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
The bus arrived at Fengyayuan Station.
The two got out of the car and walked into the residential area.
They entered the building and went upstairs. Cheng Yuxin walked in front, with Lin Feng following behind. The hallway was a bit dark; the motion-activated lights were broken, and only a little light was coming in from the windows.
As Cheng Yuxin reached the corner on the third floor, she suddenly stopped.
Lin Feng almost bumped into her.
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Yuxin turned around and looked at him.
The hallway was dimly lit, so her face wasn't very clear, but her eyes were bright.
"Lin Feng," she said, "you were really amazing today."
Lin Feng looked at her.
After Cheng Yuxin finished speaking, she turned around and continued upstairs.
Lin Feng stood at the corner, paused for a moment, and then followed.
When she got home, Cheng Yuxin changed her shoes and went straight into the kitchen.
"Go and rest, I'll cook," she said without turning her head.
Lin Feng stood in the living room, watching her back.
He suddenly remembered his past life. In his past life, in the orphanage, every time he got good grades, the aunt would say the same thing—"You're really amazing," and then turn around and go into the kitchen to cook a delicious meal.
But Cheng Yuxin is different.
The woman left after she finished speaking and never looked back.
