The trouble of rich people is because there is too much money.

And the trouble of the poor is because there is no money.

It seems that everything in this world is balanced, and the loneliness of having money and the hard work of not having money are always unsatisfactory.

"This meal was the last meal we had together years ago, and my dad sent me a WeChat message saying that I would go back tomorrow. Chen Xi shook his mobile phone at her, "I don't want to go back, I'm alone at home, my parents don't come back, I'm bored to death." ”

"You can't be at home anyway. ”

"That's what I said, but ...... During the Chinese New Year, many shops are closed, and there is nowhere to shop. Chen Xi looked sad, "And after I go back, I won't see you for a long time, and a month's vacation will be torment for me." ”

"Maybe it's been more than a month," Hao Liyue blinked, just now, she suddenly felt that after going to that village, she still had to go to the mysterious Dahl family in the Western Regions to see, I am afraid that I don't know when I will be able to return this time, "I will look for you when I come back." ”

Chen Xi unhappily took two mouthfuls of steak, and hit the porcelain plate with a knife and fork boringly, making a "bell-bell-bell" sound.

An unknown journey.

An unsolved secret.

So what was waiting for her in front of her, Hao Liyue didn't know at all, her right hand gently rubbed the malachite worn on the wrist of her left hand, thinking that it was returned to Dongye Que's hands after the death of Yu He, and the words engraved on it were also engraved by him himself.

Anyway, there are always a lot of people who care about her.

Almost finished eating, Chen Xi lowered his head and followed behind Hao Liyue, looking at her back reluctantly, but he didn't stop scolding in his mouth, "You insist on going, I can't stop you, anyway, you have to pay attention to safety, you left like this, and you have to come back as it is, but you can't have less arms and legs, bah, you can't miss a single hair, otherwise the old lady will copy the Japanese food store." ”

Hao Liyue exhaled a long breath and looked at Chen Xi solemnly, "Miss Chen, don't worry, I will definitely return to you safely, and then I will carry your bag when I go out in the future, if the eldest lady has a car in the future, the small one will be your driver in the future." ”

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, I, Hao Liyue, have never broken my word. ”

Chen Xi hurriedly patted his chest, his face was full of happiness, "Then it's decided, when I come back from winter vacation, I'll ask my dad to buy me a car!"

The two reluctantly hugged each other and then parted.

Chen Xi to the left, Hao Liyue to the right, gradually moving away.

Most of the colleges in the school have already finished their exams, except for a few people who stayed to make up for the exams, the whole campus seems empty, and occasionally a few sporadic people can be seen.

At the school gate, Chen Xi met Xu Wei, who was packing his luggage and preparing to leave, holding a suitcase in one hand and a laptop in the other, looking around and preparing to take a taxi to the station.

"Chen Xi!"

Seeing Chen Xi, he unconsciously screamed.

"Is there something wrong?" Chen Xi walked over to him, she didn't like Xu Wei from the bottom of her heart, she always felt that this boy was a little yin and yang, which should be the homonym of his name - hypocrisy, but he studied very well and looked good, and many girls were happy with him, including Hao Liyue.

"Oh, it's okay, I just want to ask you, do you know where Hao Liyue went? I've been sending her WeChat and calling her for the past few days, but she hasn't replied to me. ”

"She, ah, went to a village with her boyfriend. Chen Xi deliberately bit the three words of boyfriend very hard, if Xu Wei could completely die here, then she would be much more relieved, "Her boyfriend is handsome, very rich, and polite, he is really rich and handsome." ”

"Impossible, she was still single a week ago, did you introduce this man indiscriminately?" Xu Wei looked at her dissatisfied, he couldn't understand how Hao Liyue, a serious and hard-working person, could become best friends with an arrogant and unreasonable lady like Chen Xi.

"Yes, I introduced it, how about it?" Chen Xi almost stuck out his tongue at him, but when he said this, he was still very proud, "We Yueyue, I can't look down on you, don't think about it!"

Xu Wei ignored Chen Xi and repeated to himself, "But they have only known each other for a few days, so they went to the village to explore the secrets?!"

"She must have gone to her boyfriend by now. ”

"Which village are they going to? Xu Wei always felt that things were weird, he grabbed Chen Xi's shoulder, a little anxious, "I have seen many cases of abducting female college students, Hao Liyue is not deeply involved in the world, it is easy to trust strangers, what if something happens!"

"Huh?" Chen Xi was startled by his sudden seriousness.

"Say, where did they go?"

Chen Xi was in a trance, shook his head vigorously, and stammered when he spoke, "I...... I don't know......"

"Hey, forget it, you're so stupid, even if she tells you, you can't remember, I'll go to the police station to find the police for help, if Hao Liyue has been missing for more than 24 hours, you can file a case to find someone." After speaking, Xu Wei dragged his suitcase to the school, it seems that he can't go home today, fortunately, his home is only a few dozen kilometers away from the school, and it doesn't matter if he goes back a few days early or a few days later.

"Xu Wei!" Chen Xi suddenly shouted, "Hao Liyue will go all the way to the west, but I don't know where she is going, she should be looking for something." ”

"West ......" Xu Wei frowned, "I thought she was strange last time in the library, she kept drawing something on the paper, I should have asked her carefully at that time." ”

Chen Xi didn't dare to speak.

"That man, how did you meet him?"

"He's the owner of a Japanese restaurant. ”

Xu Wei listened, hurriedly dragged the suitcase to the security room, asked the security guard to help take care of it, hurriedly stopped a roadside taxi, and pulled Chen Xi into the car, "Show the way, go to that Japanese food store." ”

Chen Xi pointed to the road honestly, and seeing Xu Wei so nervous, she became nervous.

Thinking about it carefully, what Xu Wei said is not unreasonable, the two have only known each other for seven days, and they are going to go to a strange place together, and she actually went with Hao Liyue, she was really carried away by that man's appearance!

When the taxi arrived at the door of the Japanese restaurant, the car at the door, she subconsciously felt a little familiar.

After a closer look, they recognized that it was the car that picked them up during the day.

She didn't think much of it, got out of the car and ran to the store.

Failing to look at the road, she almost tripped over the steps and crashed into the waitress she had a crush on.

"Don't you look at the ground when you walk?" Xu Wei helped her up, but his eyes were looking around, and he didn't see Hao Liyue's figure, he was a little irritable.

"Are you two here for dinner?" the waiter asked politely, "Our restaurant is closed, if you want to eat, you can come back tomorrow." ”

"Does it close at eight o'clock?"

"Our boss had something to do tonight, so let us leave work early. The waiter explained, and he looked up to see the boss standing not far away, "If you two don't have other needs, please come back, I'm really embarrassed." ”

Higashino Que watched them come in and wasn't surprised.

He walked up behind the two and coughed lightly, "Are you looking for me?"

"Yes, it's you!" Chen Xi turned his head and almost pounced, "What about Hao Liyue, where did you hide her?"

Seeing Chen Xi so excited, Dong Yeque said lightly, "I asked her to prepare things." ”

"Where are you going to take her?" Xu Wei, who was standing on the side, couldn't help it, he stepped forward and stared at Dong Yeque's face, "Who are you, what is your purpose?"

"To be precise, it's not me who takes her, it's her who takes me, and I'm a companion at best. Higashino shrugged innocently, "And I won't harm her, are you two chasing after me at night just to question me?"

"Won't hurt her? You've only known him for a week, and you're going to go to that kind of messy place with her, what kind of heart do you have!"

"A week?" Higashino Que suddenly laughed and pointed at Xu Wei with his finger, "Who said I only knew her for a week?"

......

......

"I've known her for more than 100 years. ”
