Chapter 287 Hug Brother Nan reached into her black canvas bag and rummaged around. Li Mu pretended not to care. After a while, Brother Nan took out a hard-cover notebook from his bag, which seemed to have only a few pages. The shell is quite exquisite, but it doesn't look like new, and there are traces of bumps on the corners. Li Mu hesitated for a moment and guessed, "Is this a second-hand notebook?" Brother Nan's mouth twitched. Then she pretended to be nonchalant and threw the notebook on the table. With a pop sound. Li Mu picked up the notebook and flipped through it. There were photos on every page. Brother Nan pretended to be a little sleepy and yawned on the table so as to avoid Li Mu's gaze.
She deceived herself in this way to make herself less embarrassed: "I originally wanted to make a commemorative album, but it couldn't have more than 100 photos. I printed out all these photos and it was almost not enough. I said something nice to my boss and he printed it for me. "You can't buy the yearbook anymore, so this is the only way to do it. The quality of the photos isn't that good either, so just make do with what you have and don't be picky." Li Mu nodded and flipped through the pages. There are various photos pasted in the notebook, including photos taken at different times when he and Brother Nan were together. Some of the photos were taken while patrolling the forest, some were taken on the way to the county-level city while riding a bicycle to catch a military plane, and some were taken at the Meili Snow Mountain. He knew when some of the photos were taken, while others were taken secretly by Brother Nan. In some of the photos, he was the only one in the photo, or even just his back, but there were also one or two photos in which Brother Nan appeared. There are also some photos taken during the National Day holiday, including many photos taken by Li Qinran yesterday, and one photo that was taken secretly by someone at some unknown time, showing the backs of him and Brother Nan walking side by side on a path. There are more than twenty photos in total. It can be seen that they have all been carefully selected, and the quality is not as poor as Brother Nan said. Each one looks very beautiful, like a blockbuster movie. At this time, Brother Nan continued to lie on the table and talk, as if he didn't care: "What a pity, I can only print so many copies. If I spend more, it will exceed the limit. There are some very nice ones. I spent two whole days selecting them, but unfortunately I couldn't print them. “I’ll make you a better one later.” Seeing Li Mu finish reading the last page and close the commemorative album made from an old notebook, she quickly asked, "How is it?" She had clearly told Li Mu to just make do and not be picky, and she had pretended not to care, but at this moment she still couldn't help but show concern. Li Mu's expression was a little complicated. He didn't know how to start or how to express his current feelings. In the end, I had no choice but to imitate Brother Nan's usual behavior, put my hands behind my head and clicked them, staring at Brother Nan blankly. "Thank you, Brother Nan." He felt that he would look even more stupid than Brother Nan if he did this. Maybe he is not as stupid as Brother Nan - if Brother Nan did this action to pretend to be stupid.
After all, she is more skilled at pretending. Neither of them said anything for a moment. Li Mu was stunned for a while, then suddenly realized what was going on and found the key point: "Did you know about this mission in advance?" "correct." "How did you know this in advance?" "Bao Ran told me." "I guess so." "right" Nan Ge had no experience in dealing with this kind of dating situation where men and women exchanged gifts, but she was better than Li Mu after all. After thinking for a while, she found a topic: "Have you ever written to anyone before?" “Yes.” “You actually wrote it!” "It was organized by the school when I was a child. I wrote it when I was learning to write letters, and I also wrote it when I wrote essays." "That doesn't count!" Brother Nan felt anxious for him. “I have written about it.” Li Mu wrote this to his mother who lived abroad when he was in junior high school, and that was the only time he wrote it. Nan Ge looked at his expression and probably guessed what he meant. He didn't ask any more questions and continued, "I've never written a letter to anyone before. "Oh no, I wrote for a magazine when I was in primary school. You know what magazines were like back then? They contained jokes, brain teasers, and quizzes with prizes. The prizes were laptops, MP4s, digital cameras, game consoles, and so on." "I know, they're all lies." Li Mu said. "that is!" Brother Nan was indignant, "But when I was a kid I thought it was real! They also said they would put five dollars in the letter as the postage for their reply. It was only a long time later that I realized it was a lie, and I believed it for a long time." "and then?" "There is no more." Brother Nan spread his hands and said, "I told my grandfather that I was cheated by a fraudulent newspaper. The address of this newspaper is in Beijing." "I suppose that swindle newspaper is out of business?" "Yes, I think I told grandpa about it after school that morning. That night, Uncle Su, oh, Uncle Su was the director of the Beijing Public Security Bureau at that time. I was having dinner that night. He came to my house and returned the five dollars that I had been cheated of. He said that they had arrested the boss and closed down the newspaper office." "That's it" Li Mu suddenly felt a little sympathetic to those people. Why did they cheat Brother Nan when they could cheat anyone else? Unconsciously, the feeling of helplessness faded away. The two returned to their old atmosphere, drinking coffee and chatting. After sitting for a while, Li Mu carefully put the commemorative album given by Brother Nan into his bag. Brother Nan also packed his things, picked up Yogurt, and the two of them and the cat walked out of the bookstore.
It was almost noon. Brother Nan took Li Mu to eat the Lao Cang vinegar rice noodles that he had been craving for. After dinner, the two rode their bicycles slowly towards home. When they were almost at the gate of the Forestry Bureau’s family quarters, they slowed down even more. Brother Nan would look back at Li Mu from time to time, with a calm expression as if he just wanted to see if he was lost. Li Mu also stared at Nan Ge's back, looking at her swaying hair on her head, her slender legs pedaling, and her perfect waist curve. When they arrived at the gate of the community, they stepped on the brakes and stopped. "Brother Nan." Li Mu spoke hesitantly. "what?!" "The mission says to hug each other before leaving." "Oh, hi! I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me!" Brother Nan didn't care at all, "Just hug me! What's the big deal?" "Ah." There's really nothing. Sister Nan is very generous. She has kicked many boys on the buttocks, pushed many boys into the river, and beaten many of them. These are all physical contacts. Even when it came to hugging, she had once before embraced some of her younger brothers who were about to go abroad and hugged them as a farewell. Besides, she had accidentally hugged Li Mu last time at Meili Snow Mountain. What's this? Brother Nan parked his bicycle and walked in front of Li Mu. She just stood there gracefully, swallowed quietly to moisten her dry throat, pursed her lips, and stared at Li Mu with blinking eyes. Although he said he was free and easy, his body was hesitant and he was not able to take the next step. Li Mu took a deep breath, suppressed his pounding heart, took a step forward and opened his arms. Thanks to Zuimengyunxusuiyu for the monthly ticket! Thanks to that year_bC for the monthly ticket!
