Chapter 6 Let's Go Together
After Qi Xiaoran left the hospital, he originally wanted to go back to Jiangcheng directly, but when he thought of Wei Qianwen's hospitalization, he was still not at ease, so he still stayed.
Wei Qianwen is hospitalized, only Mo Zhen is at home, if Qi Xiaoran goes back, he will inevitably live with her, without Wei Qianwen in the middle, I don't know what Mo Zhen will do.
After thinking about it, she still decided that she would rather stay in a hotel than have an argument with Mo Zhen after going back.
The sky was getting darker, and before the sun was completely covered, the moon was already in the sky.
Taking advantage of the brilliant red of the sunset, Qi Xiaoran came to the crowded Fenghu Lake.
In the evening, the railing on the edge of Fenghu Lake was full of neon lights, Qi Xiaoran had just gotten off the taxi, and stood outside the hotel door just to look back, and the neon lights on the railing were almost all lit up in an instant.
The willow branches by the lake swayed in the wind in the warm white light, and the crowd on the roadside hurried by, forming a special scene in her eyes.
After checking into the hotel, Qi Xiaoran left his backpack in the room, took his mobile phone and went out to forage for food.
Xiang Nuanyang appeased the old lady Xiang and came to Fenglai Pavilion.
Fenglai Pavilion is a century-old Chinese restaurant opposite the gate of Fenghu Lake, a famous scenic spot in Lincheng, where the old lady Xiang and the grandmother of the current owner of Fenglai Pavilion are childhood friends and often meet in Fenglai Pavilion.
Later, when the old lady Xiang was old, she even began to struggle to walk a few more steps, and every time he returned to Lincheng, he still always asked him to go to Fenglai Pavilion to pack some food and go back.
Back and forth, he is also familiar with the owner of Fenglai Pavilion, and every time he comes back to Lincheng, he will definitely come to Fenglai Pavilion to sit and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Fenghu Lake opposite the restaurant.
"The old lady called you here again?" As soon as the boss of Fenglai Pavilion saw Xiang Nuanyang at the door, he immediately stepped forward to greet him, "It's still the same, take it out?"
"Hmm. Xiang Nuanyang glanced at the lobby on the first floor, and sure enough, it was full.
The boss noticed his gaze, raised his hand and pointed upstairs, and said, "The first and second floors are full, if you don't mind, how about sitting on the terrace on the third floor for a while?"
"Yes. He just wanted to find a place to sit for a while, and he didn't really care about the floors.
Xiang Nuanyang followed the guidance of the boss to the second floor, and went upstairs from the wooden ladder on the side of the second floor.
He took one last step after the boss, stood still on the waterproof wooden floor, turned slightly, and looked up to see a man sitting at the only large rectangular table on the terrace.
"Oh, this...... She's my friend, and she's sitting for a while. The boss scratched his head a little embarrassedly, covered half of his mouth and whispered to him, "If you mind, I'll go talk to her?"
"No, I don't. Xiang Nuanyang glanced at Qi Xiaoran, who was getting up from the chair, and stretched out his hand to block the boss who was about to step forward.
Seeing that there was no abnormal emotion on his face, the boss immediately put his mind at ease and responded a few times, "Then you sit for a while, and I'll let the kitchen prepare." ”
The "creaking" sound of the wooden ladder creaked from near to far until it disappeared, and Xiang Nuan Yang pushed open the glass door, raised his feet over the threshold, and sat straight on the other side of the table.
At this time, Qi Xiaoran had already left the dining table, stood at the railing of the terrace, and poked his head out to look at the Thousand Lights Pavilion in the center of Fenghu.
I haven't come back for two years, Fenghu Lake has not changed much, there are still several lotus lanterns floating on the lake around the Thousand Lights Pavilion, in this holiday, many tourists are coming for the scenery of Fenghu Lake.
In the past, she didn't have much admiration and thoughts about Fenghu, but when she came back after two years, she actually had a little emotion about what was wrong with people.
Qi Xiaoran sighed softly, turned around with a hanging face, and for a moment it seemed to be fixed, the right foot that was about to be raised froze, the toe was on the ground, his eyes were staring in disbelief, and his lips were slightly open.
Xiang Nuanyang looked at her expressionlessly, and after a long silence, he saw that she was still in a state of stunned, her light-colored cherry lips were slightly open, her cheeks were flushed with a faint crimson of unknown meaning, and her hands were clasped and twisted with each other, showing her nervousness everywhere, which made people feel cute.
He couldn't help but feel amused by his weird feeling, and his sword eyebrows were slightly raised.
A shallow smile was hidden in a pair of dark eyes, and the corners of his mouth tended to rise slightly, Qi Xiaoran eased his nerves, and finally took a step towards the dining table, and said respectfully: "Mr. Xiang." ”
"Hmm. ”
Qi Xiaoran pursed his dry lips, his thoughts turned a thousand times, he was still standing here at this time, it seemed that he was disturbing him, so he thought about going directly, but it was not polite to think that he would go directly, so he hesitated and said: "Mr. Xiang, you ......"
"Sit. ”
Xiang Nuanyang raised his chin and asked her to sit down, his expression was cold, so that people couldn't tell what he was thinking.
She froze in place, her helpless appearance made him look inexplicably and want to laugh, he coughed lightly, "Sit down, this is not a company." ”
Qi Xiaoran felt flattered, and pretended to sit calmly opposite him, with his legs together, his hands on his thighs, and he sat upright.
"You're from Lincheng?"
"Hmm. She closed her gaze uncomfortably and whispered.
"Don't be nervous, this is not a company. ”
Xiang Nuanyang leaned on the back of the chair, his fingers folded and rested on his upturned legs, looking leisurely, without the solemnity and indifference seen in the company on weekdays.
"I'm not nervous. Qi Xiaoran lightly opened her lips.
She was so pleasantly surprised.
I never expected to be able to meet him in Lincheng and be able to sit at a table with him, which was like a dream for her, for fear that if she spoke a little louder and was a little more emotional, she would wake up from this dream.
"Isn't it nervous?" Xiang Nuanyang looked at her in surprise, never feeling that she was in a relaxed state at this time.
"Well, it's not. She lowered her head, not knowing how to explain her state to him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "How could you .....?"
"Since you're not in the company, don't use honorifics. He didn't know why, but he always felt uncomfortable listening to her call herself in honorifics.
"Okay. ”
Xiang Nuanyang's exploratory gaze wandered away from her, and he always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in her, but he really hadn't seen her.
He stopped talking, Qi Xiaoran also lowered his head and was silent, the terrace was quiet, and only bursts of laughter were heard downstairs.
"Qi Xiaoran. After a long while, Xiang Nuanyang suddenly called out her name, "Have we seen each other before?"
Qi Xiaoran looked at him in surprise, not understanding what he wanted to say.
Did he remember what he had met in the library before, or did he remember what had sponsored her a few years ago?
He couldn't remember himself, maybe he just asked.
She shook her head, "I've seen you, you haven't seen me." ”
"Huh?"
"News about Mr. Xiang can be seen on the Internet almost every day. ”
"Really?"
There was a hint of banter in his eyes, which meant very shallow, if it weren't for Qi Xiaoran, who was always extremely careful and careful, he would almost think it was his own illusion.
"Do you always come to the city to play?"
"Sort of. ”
"Oh. Qi Xiaoran felt that his answer seemed to be perfunctory, and a sense of loss gradually rose.
Xiang Nuanyang saw the loss in her clear eyes, and she didn't know why she found it funny, and she chuckled out loud when she relaxed for a while.
When Qi Xiaoran heard this, he looked over in surprise, his laughter was short and subtle, and his voice was so low that it seemed to overflow from his chest.
Compared with the person she saw in the company, she liked him who looked relaxed now, with a different expression and a shallow smile.
Qi Xiaoran looked at him inexplicably, not understanding what he was laughing at.
"How long have you been in the company?" Xiang Nuanyang changed his sitting posture, his right hand rested on the arm of the chair and tapped it, looking like he was in a good mood.
"More than April. ”
"Well, it's been almost half a year, are you still used to it?"
Qi Xiaoran was slightly stunned, this inexplicable tone of the boss greeting her subordinates really made her feel uncomfortable, even though she understood that this was the distance between them.
"It's good. She lowered her head, and suddenly she didn't want to answer any of his questions.
Xiang Nuanyang noticed her sudden resistance, and tilted her head for some reason, "You ......"
He was about to ask something more, but was interrupted by the sound of the door being pushed next to him.
"Sorry, I'm too busy today. The boss walked over quickly with the food box and put the food box in front of Xiang Nuanyang, "Your little fried meat, and the Dongpo meat that comes with the old lady." ”
Seeing Xiang Nuanyang's frowning brows, he grinned and added, "Just now, the old lady specially called my grandmother, and I couldn't help it." ”
Xiang Nuanyang looked at the packaged food box with a blank face, and became more and more helpless to the old lady.
"It should be fine to give her a small bite. ”
The boss said, turned his head to look at Qi Xiaoran, and said with a smile: "Xiaoran, where are you going to live tonight?"
Qi Xiaoran grabbed her hair, glanced at Nuan Yang, and said, "You won't be on the streets, don't worry." ”
One year when she returned to Lincheng, Mo Zhen did not allow her to enter the house, and she had no money on her, so she had to come to Fenglai Pavilion and threatened to wash their dishes with a cheeky face, so as to pay for one night's borrowing expenses, so she really got acquainted with the boss of Fenglai Pavilion and became friends.
"That's right, you're not the same little girl you used to be!" the boss shouted sarcastically, and turned away.
It made Qi Xiaoran's face embarrassed, the red that had just faded was now a not light crimson, and she carefully aimed at Xiang Nuanyang, just in time to meet his inquiring gaze.
"Where are you staying? I'll send you back. Xiang Nuanyang almost blurted out, and by the time he reacted, the words had already been finished, and he hadn't even had time to figure out why he had become nosy tonight.
Qi Xiaoran glared flatteredly, and hurriedly waved his hand: "It's not good to trouble you, I live very close, and I walked through an intersection to get there." ”
"Since it's close, let's go together. ”
