Invade the World

  Chapter 243 Scenery under the table

  ——Of course he chooses to take both sides.

  However, according to the time arrangement, there is always a sequence of arrangements.

   "Can't other times work?"

   "Hmm...it may be a little difficult, I will have to take care of my mother after I go back."

The squad leader's Qianqianyu finger lightly tapped his chin.

"The main reason is that the central library just opened for trial operation some time ago, so there will be activities that will be open to the public for free, and it will end tomorrow. It may be necessary to apply for a card later, and it is not clear when the official operation will begin... "

"I understand."

  Xu Xiangyang nodded, and agreed very simply.

"I'll be there."

  This is not a date with the squad leader, but a trip with like-minded companions in the ocean of books and knowledge-I think it will be a very pleasant trip.

"That's good."

  Sir squad leader’s eyebrows and eyes crooked with smile, like a crescent moon hanging in the sky at the beginning of the month.

   "I won't bother you two!"

  She shook her hand towards Xu Xiangyang, who was standing at the door, and said "bye bye!" Then she turned and left without any muddle.

  Xu Xiangyang watched the short-haired girl walking briskly, and the dim street lights pulled her shadow on the ground. Finally, when Qingyue's back disappeared at the end of the alley and was swallowed by the dark night, he closed the door again.

  Before Xu Xiangyang turned around, he heard Lin Xingjie ask behind him:

  "Who is it? Qingyue?"

"right."

The girl who had just walked out of the bathroom was damp. She wrapped her long hair in a large white towel and fixed it with her hands open. However, there were still a few strands of hair that jumped out playfully and fell on her shoulders. The beautiful, water-stained skin that was not covered by the shirt was exposed to the air, flowing with a hazy jade-like luster under the light.

   "Is something wrong with her? Did something fall?"

"……no."

  Xu Xiangyang looked at Lin Xingjie in a daze.

  If it were before, his eyes would probably be placed on the girl’s straight white legs or the gully under the collarbone, but now, he would only stare at those lips.

Seeing her boyfriend’s intently dazed expression, Lin Xingjie couldn’t figure out whether she was a little more shy or a little more joyful in the emotions surging in her heart. But after living together for so long, she could still fascinate this boy. She was proud...just out of reservedness, she took a blushing sip.

   "Don't keep staring at it, pervert."

   "Uh, I'm sorry—"

  Xu Xiangyang subconsciously apologized, but he quickly reacted, straightened his chest, and retorted loudly without shame:

   "No, what does it matter? Let me see what's wrong with my girlfriend? It's a natural and righteous thing."

   Lin Xingjie was speechless immediately.

  It’s not just herself who changed and grew up. Xu Xiangyang has also become different from the conservative and simple boy she had in the past, but sometimes she doesn’t know whether this change is good or bad...

   "Let's do it, let's see what you want."

  Lin Xingjie simply ignored him, walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down on her own, raising her legs.

  This action exposed large areas of skin on her legs, which became more seductive under the shroud of lights. The girl's posture was like a condescending queen, while Xu Xiangyang stared unblinkingly.

  The long-haired girl posing in this posture, she no longer has shyness and embarrassment on her face, hummed and said in a proud tone:

   "If you have seen enough, please answer my questions honestly. What did Qingyue tell you?"

"……what?"

  "Don't say that she is here to say goodnight to you. Deliberately whispering to you while I am away in the bath, it must be something else."

  Lin Xingjie’s tone was calm, and she uttered this analysis quickly drawn in a short period of time.

  Xu Xiangyang was secretly stunned, and he couldn’t underestimate the observation ability of his girlfriend.

  Fortunately, he didn't intend to hide it.

   "I have an appointment with her, and I am going to the downtown library tomorrow."

"……library."

   Lin Xingjie supported her chin with one hand, showing a thoughtful look.

"What's wrong?"

  "It’s nothing, I’m just thinking that there should be a lot of people there, and it’s a public place, where you can’t do anything bad if you want to."

   "I wouldn't do bad things in the first place."

  Xu Xiangyang frowned.

  "You should trust your boyfriend more."

   "Of course I believe you."

   Lin Xingjie blinked.

   "If you didn't believe you, you should have been forbidden to associate with her."

  After a moment of silence, she changed the other leg and put it on her knee, and said:

   "Okay, you can go. It's hard to find a generous girlfriend like me."

"Uh-huh."

  Xu Xiangyang agrees very much.

   "Of course, I have to go with you."

  *

  The next morning, Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie arranged their clothes and prepared to go out.

   "Would you like to leave earlier?"

   "Early, I heard that the opening time is very early."

  Just as Xu Xiangyang handed over the shoes belonging to the other party, he heard a muffled noise coming from the house.

  Sister Lian staggered out of her room, she covered her mouth and yawned with her hand, with dark circles under her eyes appearing, acting like a mummy that had just been resurrected from the coffin.

   "Hey, you two are going out today?"

  The woman was a little at a loss when she saw them all ready to go.

   "Yes." Xu Xiangyang nodded, "I have made breakfast and put it on the table..."

   "What about lunch?"

   "If we have lunch, we probably have to eat it outside, and you can solve it by yourself."

  The woman blinked, and looked at the young man to the left and the young girl to the right, showing a pitiful expression.

   "...you don't plan to burn it for me?"

  As soon as this statement came out, Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but sighed.

  Am I too used to her? ——Of course, this shouldn't be said by the younger generation to the elders, but this was the first thought that came to his mind.

   "Can't you cook by yourself?"

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but vomit.

   "You used to do it. I learned all my cooking skills from you."

   "I haven't done it for a long time."

  Li Qinglian smiled awkwardly.

   "Everyone in the unit eats instant noodles or orders boxed lunches, and there is no chance to cook. The craftsmanship has long been rusty."

   "No, I think you are lazy."

  Xu Xiangyang recalled the impression left by her sister during the recent period: almost every time she saw her in the room, she was lying on the sofa watching TV, motionless like a large sprouting potato.

  Li Qinglian's one-day trip back home is described in one sentence as "eat, sleep, and eat". Even if you are resting at home, it does not mean that this kind of work and rest habit is correct.

  Previously, Xu Xiangyang was worried that she would be too stressed, but now he is worried that this kind of life will continue. Sooner or later, the shrewd and capable sister will be raised into a waste...

Sister   Lian ignored her brother’s ridicule, and affectionately wrapped Lin Xingjie’s neck from behind, bent down to put her chin on her shoulder, and said confidently:

   "I'm not free. I have to report to my work unit at noon today. Besides, I want to get some sleep later. Xiaojie, can you help me?"

  A trace of helplessness appeared on Lin Xingjie's face, but she still couldn't resist Sister Lian's deliberate flattery, and her voice softly replied.

   "I see, I will stay at home. I will help prepare lunch."

   "Really? Great!"

  Ignoring Li Qinglian, who raised her hands and cheered, and was completely like an adult, Xu Xiangyang asked with some worry:

   "Are you okay?"

   "Okay, I'm fine. Go ahead."

   Lin Xingjie waved to him, impatiently motioning him to leave as soon as possible.

   "Don't let Qingyue wait too long."

   "This... are you serious?"

   Seeing his girlfriend mentioned the name of his rival in no way, Xu Xiangyang’s doubts in his heart would naturally not be dispelled, and he couldn’t help repeating it again.

   "You can't leave her there alone. Of course, the most important thing is that you promised me yesterday."

  She looked at herself, her pupils showing unreserved trust.

   "I would like to believe you."

  *

  Starting from home, the bus took four stops and asked the traffic police on the side of the road. Xu Xiangyang arrived at the appointed place alone.

   "This is the central library."

  Xu Xiangyang raised his head and watched the five-star red flag on the top of the building fluttering in the wind. This is a building with three buildings next to each other. The tallest one has five floors. The outer wall is arc-shaped and covers a large area. It feels more like a large-scale stadium.

  The appearance of the library is very magnificent. I heard that it was built by a wealthy overseas Chinese. Compared with the architectural style generally seen in this era, it has a more international feeling.

  Seeing this style, Xu Xiangyang's expectation of the "sweet-sweet book collection" among the squad leader's large population is a little higher.

  Since moving to this city, he has not been here once, and he even regrets it now.

  However, high school studies are indeed too busy, mainly because there is no free time. If he moved to Jinjiang City when he was still a primary school student, he would definitely come here every day...

"Good morning."

  A familiar and pleasant greeting came from my ear.

  Xu Xiangyang turned his head and saw Zhu Qingyue with a bag in his hand beside the flower bed not far away, looking at herself with a smile. He noticed that several passersby passing by were involuntarily looking at her.

The jet black gauze skirt sets off the girl’s exquisite curves, and her gorgeous face looks more like a mature woman. Below the skirt is black pantyhose, which outlines the contours of the round and slender thighs; further down is a pair of black. Shiny little leather shoes.

  The main color of the whole outfit on her body is as dark as night, somehow it reminded him of the **** and beautiful female vampire in the horror movie.

  The squad leader will dress up every time he goes out, and every time he will give people an amazing feeling, but today this time is definitely the most eye-catching.

  Xu Xiangyang swallowed, but his eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously.

  "You don’t dress like a student at all..."

  In his impression, dresses like black stockings have been very popular since a few years ago, but later they are inevitably labeled as “sexy” and “wind and dust”. No wonder it attracts the attention of others.

  It’s even more unimaginable for young girls like the class leader to dress up grandiosely. If they are seen by people in school, they will definitely be shocked.

   "You still say this to this day?"

  She didn't care at all, and shook her finger at him.

   "Let me tell you one thing, clothes have nothing to do with age or other people's inherent ideas. It only depends on whether the person wearing the clothes can control it."

  Zhu Qingyue said this while looking around.

   "Hey, Xingjie is not here?"

   "Just ask her when you come up." Xu Xiangyang smiled, "I thought you asked me to come."

   "Of course I am asking you. But she can't help but follow..."

  Zhu Qingyue pouted. Her lips were obviously painted with a brighter lipstick than usual, which shone with a moist and seductive luster in the sun.

   "——Are you afraid that your boyfriend will run away with me?"

   When she said this, those bright eyes were staring at the boy, and her sight was full of fiery ambiguity.

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't help turning his head. He couldn't bear the aggressive and offensive attitude of the other party that showed his emotions. However, even if he tried to persuade him, it would be useless... Thinking of this, he used pointed words as a temptation.

"...Xingjie said, she felt that even after she became a rival to you, she still liked the feeling of staying with you. Don't you think this is great? Not everyone can have this kind of mind. This shows that she really values ​​the relationship with you."

"Haha, yeah. The two of us are really good friends. We are natural friends. As you said, even if we become rivals, our friendship will not be severed. I am very happy about it, but- —"

  Zhu Qingyue’s tone seemed to be half joking, and the other half was serious.

   "The man still has to grab it."

  ...Look, it is so.

  Xu Xiangyang shook his head helplessly, and stopped talking.

  *

  The two walked into the gate together.

  The area inside the hall is as wide as he imagined.

  The first thing they went to was the loan room closest to the door. Rows of tall metal bookshelves stretched to the top, and each floor was full of books.

  The feeling of walking into it is like stepping into a forest or a palace of books.

  There is no shortage of guests in the room. The people in the middle of the bookshelf come and go, but the people who come here seem to be well-trained and willing to abide by the rules. Everyone keeps quiet and speaks softly when they have to speak.

  ...Just as Xingjie said, in this environment, even if the squad leader really has a bad idea, shouldn’t he be embarrassed to do it?

   "Anything you want to see?"

  "Choose it yourself. I'll wait for you in the reading area."

  After a brief exchange, the two separated temporarily.

  First, go to the borrowing desk to get a sign. After you pick a book, you must fill the vacancy with the sign before you can take the book away.

   Ten minutes later, Xu Xiangyang picked a detective novel, walked to the table at the innermost side of the reading area, sat down opposite the monitor, and took out the workbooks and cups from the schoolbag one by one.

  He put the book aside, ready to wait for a while when he gets tired from homework, and then read it when he rests.

  The squad leader chose to read the book first.

  Xu Xiangyang froze for a while, still couldn't help but look at the short-haired girl sitting on the chair opposite the table, holding the open book in both hands, reading attentively.

  Bright sun came in from the glass window on one side, and the girl’s black hair and snow muscle were smeared with a faint golden glow, which was as beautiful as the muse on a classical oil painting.

  Stunned by the great beauty brought by this static scene, he finally converged his mind. Xu Xiangyang laughed at his weak will. People are just reading in peace, and the person who has bad thoughts is obviously himself?

  ……

  I don’t know how long it took, Xu Xiangyang, who was immersed in his studies, suddenly felt that his knee was rubbed by something.

He looked down and found that Zhu Qingyue, who was sitting opposite, had taken off her small leather shoes somehow. A pair of plump legs wrapped in black stockings were placed under the table, slender feet shaking restlessly, one of them His toes just touched his thigh.

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't help raising his head, and found that the squad leader was still there studying attentively, as if he didn't even notice it.
