Just be your own driver

5. Is it a date?

An Xing put away the cue, pushed the glasses with his fingers, carefully watched the position of the cue ball, and looked for the next target.

At this time, An Xing pursed his lips tightly, his eyes looked back and forth at the scattered balls on the table, like a pen outlining the next step.After seeing the route, An walked to the left and hit the cue ball to the right. The cue ball spun and touched the green ball, and the green ball rolled towards the middle pocket and fell into the pocket.

Cheng Ting raised his eyebrows and continued to look at the table in front of him.

However, Li Shaoyan had completely diverted his attention, he cared more about the man in front of him than who would win or lose.He has known for a long time that he has a good figure, but now looking at the back view of him bending over to play, Li Shaoyan needs to control himself so as not to be attracted by his attractive lines.At this time, the dimples from when he was smiling were put away on An Xing's face, and concentration was written under his glasses. He liked to bite his lower lip when he was thinking, his teeth were faintly visible, and he would only let go when he made up his mind, and his lips would flick slightly.

The applause sounded, startling the fiery Li Shaoyan. He looked at the billiard table again, and there was only a black eight in the colored balls, and Cheng Ting's cue hadn't been used yet.Everyone whispered, talking about how wonderfully An Xing played the ball just now.

At this time, the position of the black eight and the position of the cue ball are very good, even Li Shaoyan can score at this level. "Win, win." "Definitely won."

Everyone looked at An Xing, and An Xing glanced at Li Shaoyan.For some reason, Li Shaoyan felt that Anxing's focus just now had disappeared.

Anxing made a shot, the cue ball hit the black eight, the black and white balls followed and rolled towards the bottom pocket, the black ball fell into the pocket, and the white ball was still fast.

"Don't go in, don't go in, don't go in..." Li Shaoyan muttered to himself.

Everyone exclaimed, the cue ball followed Hei Ba into the bag.Everyone turned their eyes to An Xing in surprise, An Xing bit his lips and smiled, "Oh, the horse stumbled."

An walked up to Cheng Ting and stretched out his hand, "According to your level, you probably won't hand over the opportunity to me again, right?"

"will not!"

"Then I lost." An Xing said, "Let's take a step first. We will compete again when we have a chance."

Cheng Ting held An Xing's hand, not feeling lonely, sad or embarrassed like a loser, but very happy, "My name is Cheng Ting."

"An Xing."

After An Xing handed the cue to the boss, he walked towards the door. Li Shaoyan watched his figure disappearing at the door, and his heart was so excited that he wanted to jump out of his chest and announce to the world: "I want this man!"

An Xing was unlocking the bicycle, and looked back at Leopard Point, just in time to see Li Shaoyan rushing out. He smiled and said, "I thought you wouldn't come out."

Li Shaoyan didn't answer, but took two quick steps, standing side by side with An Xing.The street lamps dragged the two people's shadows long, and they walked quietly for tens of meters. The atmosphere was not awkward, not like friends they met for the first time, but like bosom friends who were as light as water.

Although it is good to press the road, it is not right not to say something in such a rare opportunity to be alone.Li Shaoyan, who was full of ghosts, spoke first: "Your billiards skills are not bad."

"Ye Luzi, I haven't learned it seriously. When I was in junior high school, I really liked the owner of the billiard hall downstairs, so I played with him every day."

"Self-taught..." Li Shaoyan boasted, and suddenly realized that his focus was not right, he stopped abruptly, he likes the owner of the outdoor billiard hall, this kind is usually a man... Could it be him?

"You, you are..." Li Shaoyan didn't know what to say, "Are you the same as me?"

An Xing smiled, "That's right, otherwise why would I appear at Leopard Point? Do you really think I'm going to drink beer?"

"But, you have a daughter..." Li Shaoyan thought of other reasons when he was a little excited just now, and his expression changed.

Sensing the change in Li Shaoyan, An Xing hurriedly explained, "I will tell you about my relationship with Xiao Ke later, but I am not married by physical form, nor is it for the purpose of having children."

"Oh!" After this conversation, Li Shaoyan didn't know whether to be happy or sad, but this silence is a bit embarrassing.Such an eloquent person like him would never allow this to happen, so he had to change the subject, "You are good at billiards, so why did you deliberately hit the cue ball in in the end?"

"I want to figure it out," An Xing thought for a while, then muttered two more words.Li Shaoyan didn't hear clearly but didn't ask.

"Do you come to Leopard Point often? Do you like playing billiards so much?" An Xing took the conversation and asked.

"I'm mainly here to hunt..." Li Shaoyan swallowed the "yan" that came to his mouth, and changed the sound of "hunting", "I practice billiards, and my colleagues signed up for the May [-]th Games in our unit." Billiards. I don’t have to practice at my level, or it would be too embarrassing. Hey, do you know where there is a good place?” Li Shaoyan asked.

"I don't play often." An Xing hesitated, "However, there is a table in the basement of my house."

"Then I'll find you after get off work tomorrow." Li Shaoyan readily agreed.

"Then see you at the school gate."

"Thank you today." Li Shaoyan glanced at An Xing, he pushed the bicycle and walked slowly, with a temperament different from this era, as if trapped in a certain moment, gentle and quiet.

"Cough, I'm also nervous." An Xing spread out his right hand, and even the street lamp could clearly see the sweat remaining on his palm. "I've always been a shrinking turtle, and today I'm brave for the first time."

"How can a man say that he is a tortoise?" Li Shaoyan laughed.

An Xing was stunned for a moment, biting his lip, showing dimples, "Last time at Leopard Point, you helped me out. This time I can't watch you get off the stage. It's okay, it's okay."

"Your playing skills are really good. I have to study hard tomorrow. But I won't learn the skill of deliberately losing." Li Shaoyan said with a smile, "I don't intend to save face for my opponent."

An Xing smiled, and the dimple deepened a bit.Li Shaoyan thought to himself, really want to have a drink.

On the first day after the May Day holiday, Xueyuan Road was blocked as usual.Li Shaoyan was so busy that he didn't touch the ground. He saw An Xing riding a [-] bike to send his children to school from a distance.An Xing waved to Li Shaoyan, Li Shaoyan nodded and went back to work.

At nine o'clock, the traffic improved, and Li Shaoyan and Liu Wei followed back to the traffic police team for breakfast. "Young Master Li, there is a billiards competition tomorrow, are you sure you will be the bottom one?"

"Get out! I've hired a master, and I'm going to do a surprise training tonight."

"Hey, you don't look like you're going to training, it's like you're going on a date," Liu Wei said.

"What's wrong with me?"

Liu Wei took out his mobile phone, turned on the front camera, and slapped Li Shaoyan on his face, "The cheekbones have risen to the sky."

Li Shaoyan looked at the handsome self in the camera and said with a smile, "I'll be so handsome any day!" He pushed Liu Wei away, took out his vibrating mobile phone, and there was a red dot on An Xing's profile picture in WeChat, and he clicked on: 06: 30 See you at the school gate.

It was said as if two students were going on a date.Li Shaoyan pursed his lips, thinking to himself, is it a date?

Before the evening rush hour, when Li Shaoyan and Liu Wei drove to the gate of Liuyi Primary School, there was still a traffic jam as usual. After 20 minutes, the number of cars picking up the children gradually decreased. Li Shaoyan looked up to find An Xing, and a series of horns rang in his ears.It turned out that a Buick business had stalled in the middle of the road, and the cars behind it were blocked. Li Shaoyan and Liu Wei hurriedly pushed the car to the side of the road.Li Shaoyan pushed away the cigarette offered by the Buick owner, took the tissue he brought, and wiped his sweat while thinking: I am going on a date today, what will I do with my stinky sweat?

Li Shaoyan went back to the team and changed his clothes. As soon as he walked out of the gate, he heard the sound of a car horn behind him.Liu Wei poked his head out from the cab, "Go home? Shall I see you off?"

"I'm going to practice billiards." Li Shaoyan waved his hand, "Just walk over there, it's near Liuyi Primary School, if you're not on the way."

Liu Wei had an indescribable expression on his face, staring at Li Shaoyan with an expression of "I understand".Li Shao, who has always been thick-skinned, was also embarrassed by the sight, slammed the car door hard, and scolded "Get out of here" with a smile.

Li Shaoyan strode forward with long legs and walked to the front of the school at exactly 06:30. It was still bright, and the Xueyuan Road was no longer the usual bustle of picking up and dropping off students, and the road was orderly.He looked towards the school, An Xing was leaning on the [-] cart and playing with his mobile phone, perhaps feeling someone was watching him, An Xing raised his head, met Li Shaoyan's eyes, put the phone in his pocket, and walked over pushing the bicycle.

"Where's Xiao Ke?" Li Shaoyan asked when he saw An Xing alone.

"Send it to my mother's house." An Xing replied.

An Xing's face was flushed, and there was still a thin layer of sweat on his head when he looked closely. It seemed that he came here by bicycle again.

"Your home is not far from here, ride a bike every day."

"The main reason is that I don't know how to drive, so it's easier to ride a bike."

An Xing's house is in Xuefuyuan, which is a relocated building from the original old community. Although the community is new, the neighbors are very old-fashioned.From the moment the two of them entered the community, they could see An Xing greeting various neighbors, ranging from 80-year-old old men and old ladies to three- and four-year-old children.

"If you didn't say that you are engaged in network maintenance, I would think you are a member of the community."

"They are all former neighbors. If there is any problem with the computer or the Internet at home, they will call me if they don't look for after-sales service. Gradually, we all know each other." An Xing explained with a smile.

"I can't see that you are still a good old man."

"I don't look like it?" An Xing looked sideways at Li Shaoyan and asked with a smile.

The setting sun painted a golden edge on An Xing's figure, and there was light between the opening and closing of the two thin lips. This light seemed to swallow Li Shaoyan's heart.Li Shaoyan turned away from An Xing's smiling gaze, and pulled his heart out of An Xing's dimples again.

"Don't think it's messy, Xiao Ke's stinky girl made a mess of the house." An Xing let Li Shaoyan into the house.

In the room with three bedrooms and one living room, you can see the messiness of the master and the cuteness of the little girl. There are a few clothes piled up on the armrest of the sofa, and a few plush toys can be vaguely seen under the clothes.There were two sets of bowls and chopsticks and a few plates scattered on the dining table, and several bread bags stood on one side.

After changing his shoes, An Xing hurriedly piled the tableware into the pool, "I was in a hurry to send Xiao Ke to eat in the morning, and I didn't have time to clean up...Hey, don't change your shoes. Let's sit down for a while, or go straight Go play billiards?"

"Let's play pool."

"I don't think you are driving." An Xing took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator, "Is this okay to drink? It won't affect your work tomorrow, right? Forget it, I'll give you juice."

"No, two gentlemen, beer is fine." Li Shaoyan took the beer and waited outside the door.
