Chapter 164: Hot Pot

The plane continued to rise, passing through patches of clouds, and gradually began to fly smoothly forward.

Wen Xun covered his body with the blanket sent by the flight attendant, but he still felt a little cold.

Maybe it's not that the body feels cold, but that the atmosphere is too cold. There was no one around to talk to her, no one would fall asleep and accidentally lean on her shoulder, and she couldn't rest her head on someone else's.

Suddenly, she began to miss her parents' broken thoughts, and she missed Jiang Xiangyang making her laugh in a slightly underwhelming way.

But I just left home......

Wen Xun sighed helplessly, complaining about whether his sentimentality came too quickly. To divert her attention, she turned on her phone and began flipping through the photo album. There are a lot of videos in the album that she and Jiang Xiangyang recorded when they were in Duncheng together, and she smiled when she looked at it, forgetting her melancholy and troubles for a while.

Then she began to get sleepy, and she slept and woke up and slept for hours, dreaming a lot, but remembering nothing until she got off the plane.

This semester, she is going to move back to the dormitory to live with Bai Pearl Pei Xuanning, and she will start moving her things back tomorrow, and today she will still live in the small house where she and Jiang Xiangyang lived before. In the months when they were not in Duncheng, Jiang Xiangyang temporarily rented the house as a short-term rental to another young couple he met in Duncheng - this kind of subletting of rented houses is not allowed in China, but this practice is still very common in Duncheng.

When Wen Xun arrived at the residence with his luggage, the little couple had already packed up their things and moved out, but they still left some traces of their stay, such as the banana peel that they forgot to lose in the trash can, such as Jiang Xiangyang's thousand instructions to ask them to help water the flowers, and they did water it.

At that time, Jiang Xiangyang also told Wen Xun, "When I asked them to water the flowers, they looked for a long time, and they couldn't see that there were flowers in the flower pot." ”

Wen Xun wanted to justify her life-saving grace flower, but she couldn't help but laugh when she heard Jiang Xiangyang say that.

Indeed, it doesn't look much like a flower.

Wen Xun walked to the balcony and saw that the flower pots were still well placed there, and there was still no sign of breaking through the ground. She was a little worried about whether the seed would be dead, but she was still a little reluctant to throw it away.

Anyway, it's just a simple matter of watering it every day, so just leave it behind.

In the evening, Bai Pearl and Pei Xuanning came to Wen Xun to see her. White Pearl also brought a very exaggerated cauldron, saying that she wanted to eat hot pot.

Wen Xun laughed at her, "So what about the ingredients?"

White Pearl patted her head, "Oops, forgot." ”

Pei Xuanning was still gentle and gentle, although she couldn't help but smile a little, but she still took the initiative to take over the errand, "What do you like to eat, I'll buy it." ”

"How can you let yourself go. Wen Xun answered, "Let's go together." ”

White Pearl nodded in agreement.

The three of them went out like this, and went to a nearby mall to start selecting ingredients for shabu-shabu. White Pearl pushed a shopping cart and insisted on letting Pei Xuanning sit inside, Pei Xuanning was very embarrassed, but he still couldn't resist her, so he did so. Wen Xun thought they were very funny and cute, so he turned on his mobile phone camera and took a few photos as a souvenir.

After buying the ingredients, the three of them returned to Wen Xun's residence and began to make hot pot. You can't buy hot pot base here in Duncheng, but Wen Xun, a person from C City, must have a few packs of hot pot base in his suitcase - all of them are spicy.

Bai Pearl and Pei Xuanning were so spicy that they kept drinking water with tears in their eyes, and Wen Xun laughed at them while continuing to eat without changing his face.

Because of Bai Pearl and Pei Xuanning, her melancholy mood because of the separation was all right at this time. didn't wait for this good mood to last long, she suddenly noticed that the tears Pei Xuanning was wiping seemed to be different from the nature of the white pearl, she didn't look like she was crying, but like she was really crying.

"Xuanning, what's wrong?" Wen Xun put down the dishes and chopsticks and asked Pei Xuanning.

Bai Pearl also turned his head to look at Pei Xuanning, "Why are you crying again?"

"Again?" Wen Xun grasped the point of White Pearl's words. "Did she cry before, what happened?"

White Pearl and Pei Xuanning came to Duncheng a few days before her, so they had been living together in the dormitory for a few days before she came. Wen Xun thought that maybe something had happened in the past few days, and she didn't know for the time being.

"Well, it's better for Xuan Ning to say it himself. Bai Pearl said, took out a tissue from her bag and handed it to Pei Xuanning, "Okay, don't cry, wipe your tears and talk well." Her words sounded like a command, but her tone was gentle.

Pei Xuanning sobbed for a while, and then said, "I'm going back to country K." ”

"Huh?" Wen Xun was stunned, "Aren't you still a long time before you graduate?"

"My previous company contacted me again and said that it was willing to give me a chance to make my solo debut. It's a really rare opportunity and it's something I've always wanted. I thought I was tired of the entertainment industry, but I told them I would consider it. ”

Then she came back to Don City. White Pearl continued, "The first two days she was very depressed every day, and I saw that something was wrong with her, and I found out that it was like this after a good chat with her. I persuaded her to go back and make her debut, and she agreed. So, she can stay here for about a week at most, and when she finishes the withdrawal procedures, she will leave. ”

"That's it......" Wen Xun probably understood what they meant, nodded, and smiled at Pei Xuanning, "Isn't this a good thing, why are you crying." ”

White Pearl also smiled, "This stupid child said that she was reluctant to let us, she said that she had no other friends besides us." ”

Wen Xun felt his heartbeat stagnate for a beat, and then slowly returned to normal.

- I don't have any friends but us.

These words really hit her heart.

She is a person who has no shortage of friends, she has Jiang Xiangyang as a close friend since she was a child, and later they became lovers, and she met all kinds of other friends. But people like Pei Xuanning who have chosen a different path from everyone are always lonely, and she is not very outgoing and has experienced bullying in the group, so she is inevitably afraid of loneliness.

For Wen Xun and White Pearl, Pei Xuanning may just be a roommate and a cute little sister. But for Pei Xuanning, she really cherishes these two friends after finally having two friends.

But she has to choose between her dreams and her friends, and the answer to this question is all too clear, of course, the former. Because only by making yourself strong can you settle down, and friends can only give phased support and companionship, and can't give more.

Wen Xun stretched out his hand and rubbed it on Pei Xuanning's head, she smiled and said to her, "It's okay, haven't we also added each other's contact information, and we can still keep in touch often in the future." You work hard, and I'll go to see your stage with Pearl in the future. ”

"Really?" Pei Xuanning's eyes lit up. She looked at Wen Xun and then at White Pearl, trying to verify the answer from their eyes.

Wen Xun said, "Of course it's true. ”

White Pearl is still not good at sensationalism, but she also smiled and said, "Well, look at your performance, if you become a big star, I will definitely watch it." Think about it - my good friend is a big star, what a face, even if it's to show off, I have to go. ”

Pei Xuanning finally burst into tears and laughed.

"Then don't say you're unhappy!" Pei Xuanning said and took a big bite of the dishes in the hot pot to eat, but he coughed so spicy.

Wen Xun couldn't help laughing again, she asked half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Why don't I pour you a bowl of water, and you can eat it after you have finished the dishes?"

Bai Pearl felt offended, "Wen Xun, you're too insulting, what is it called eating hot pot?!"

Pei Xuanning winked at Wen Xun a little temptingly, "I think it's good." Or...... Pour me a bowl of water alone?"
