Xu Xinyi changed out of the red and white T-shirt and rubbed it vigorously in the basin. But the pigment of the ice cream has been blended with the cotton fabric, and it can't be washed off, so Xinyi has to wring it out and hang it on the balcony in discouragement.

She changed into a white floral dress, neither long nor short, and the skirt stayed just above the knee. I was tired of wearing the same uniform as everyone else at school, but luckily I was able to wear my own clothes two days a week. Looking at the girl in the mirror who is 165cm tall, has an even body, and has fair skin and slender legs, the corners of her mouth are slightly raised.

In the past, I only knew how to study, and I could wear any clothes on my body, and I didn't care if my hair was combed or not, and I didn't care if I was wearing it beautifully. And now that she has a boyfriend, it's different, she hopes that every moment with Zhao Bin is the best state.

Isn't the person in the mirror the best state now?

Xu Xinyi thought so, and happily went out of the house to meet Zhao Bin in the milk tea shop. The two discussed for a long time and finally decided to go to the north of the city, which was highly recommended by Zhao Bin, to eat crayfish.

The taxi turned left and right in the alley in the north of the city, making Xu Xinyi dizzy.

Zhao Bin scratched his ears and thought for a while, and excitedly pointed out the way to the driver for a while, "Yes, it's this street, turn left in front, oh, no, no, turn right in front." ”

The taxi driver slid three black lines in front of his forehead: "Is it a left or a right turn?"

"How do I know, I've only been here once. Don't you know Cuixiang Pavilion, the crayfish there is the best I've ever tasted. You're a driver, and you're not familiar with the road, so you can solicit customers. ”

The driver was not happy when he heard this, so he simply parked the car in front of a closed shop, turned off the fire, turned around and said to Zhao Bin, "Hey, I said that I can't say that, I have to drive for 5 or 6 years. But it's the first time I've come to such a remote place that doesn't even show navigation today, or you can get off here and find it yourself, I guess when I find the pavilion you said it gets dark, and I can't do business. ”

"You—" Zhao Bin frowned and wanted to reason with him. Xu Xinyi tugged at his arm and shook his head.

"Okay, let's go down here, the master will trouble you. Xu Xinyi smiled and said to the driver, and the two paid for the car and got out of the car.

"Look at how understanding this little girl is, it's really a blessing for you to find such a good girlfriend. The driver said to Zhao Bin while looking for money.

Zhao Bin didn't answer him, watched the taxi slip out of the alley, and then said to Xu Xinyi: "The last sentence is like human words." ”

Xinyi burst out laughing, and pulled Zhao Bin's arm, "Let's go, we can't find the place you said again, we have to sleep on the streets." ”

Zhao Bin remembered the business at this time, and took Xinyi's hand and shuttled through the alley. When the signboard of the Cuixiang Pavilion appeared above his head, Zhao Bin jumped up with cheers as if Columbus had discovered a new world, "Cuixiang Pavilion! Cuixiang Pavilion!

Two people eat spicy crayfish in a quaint attic. With the dim lighting, it has a special taste.

"How did you discover this place. Xinyi stuffed the lobster meat on the plate that was peeled off by Zhao Bin into her mouth and said.

"Isn't it delicious? This is what my dad brought me when he was socializing with clients. I didn't come here at the time, and I thought you adults were discussing things, so why did I come here as a little kid. My dad said that the crayfish here is a must, and I will never forget it, and it turned out to be. Zhao Bin nodded and gave a thumbs up.

"Well, yes, the place you chose is just as reliable as you. A handful of bangs on Xu Xinyi's forehead slid to her eyes, sweeping in front of her eyes with the wind blowing from the air conditioner.

Zhao Bin took off his greasy gloves, gently brushed her bangs behind her ears, and looked at her dotingly. Then, after a pause, he said, "How are you doing with that woman?"

"Which woman?" asked Xinyi, biting into the shrimp meat.

"The woman your dad brought home. ”

"Oh, I haven't seen her in a long time, but I know she often comes to my house while I'm at school. ”

"How do you know?" Zhao Bin was surprised.

"As soon as I got home, I smelled a bad smell in the air. In fact, Xu Xinyi wanted to say a saowei, but she felt that this was very indecent, she was also a child born in a scholarly family. Looking at Zhao Bin's puzzled look, she then explained, "Actually, every time I go to the study, I don't see a little dust on the table, so I guess she must have been here, and she made me a table of dishes last time." I poured it all out. ”

"Isn't it delicious?" Zhao Bin put on his gloves again and continued to peel the shrimp.

"I don't know if it's good or not, I haven't tasted it. ”

"I think maybe you misunderstood her, since she can think of making you dinner, it means that she wants to have a good relationship with you. ”

"How could I have misunderstood her, you didn't see what she did to me when my dad wasn't at home, she really treated my house as her own, wearing my mom's pajamas and breaking my mom's favorite jewelry. I think she did it on purpose. ”

Zhao Bin fed the shrimp meat in his hand into Xinyi's mouth, "Actually, you two can find a chance to talk about it." You can't be prejudiced against her just because she's done that kind of job before. What's more, it's not okay to have a hostess in a home. ”

"Eh, I said Zhao Bin" Xu Xinyi put the shrimp meat in her hand on the plate, looked at Zhao Bin's eyes and said, "You brought me to dinner today, why do you keep talking about her and still defending her?"

Zhao Bin was a little weak when he heard this: "I... I'm not doing it for you. ”

"Could it be that the two of you have met in private, or has she given you any benefits?" Xu Xinyi asked.

"How is that possible, how can you think of me as that kind of person, I just, I just feel that you deserve to be loved by more people besides me. ”

"Although I Xu Xinyi don't have a mother, I have a best friend and a boyfriend now. Even if I don't have anything, I can love myself, I don't need anyone to pity me, and I don't need the love of someone like her. Xu Xinyi took off her gloves and stood up and said these words slowly, and then walked out of the attic.

"Xinyi..."Zhao Bin shouted behind her, hurriedly catching up, but just chased at the door but was stopped by the waiter to pay. When the money was paid, Xu Xinyi could no longer be seen in the alley.

He broadcast her phone number again and again, and the female voice on the phone was set by the computer, "I'm sorry, your call is not answered for the time being, please dial again later..."

Zhao Bin hung up the phone, looked at the display on the phone, and scolded, "Damn, if you can't find a way in this kind of place, forget it, even the signal is so weak." ”

The alleys are lined with specialty snacks and shops selling antique jewelry. There were people everywhere, but there was not a single taxi in sight.

Xu Xinyi watched the sky getting late, and walked forward anxiously, passing through this alley and turning into another alley, or she would have gotten into a dead end, as if there would never be a way out. Looking at the path built with stones under her feet, Xu Xinyi thought to herself: What kind of place is this, it seems to be an isolated paradise. But it's a far cry from the world. She didn't want to stay in such a strange place for long.

I asked several passers-by, but the answers were vague, or they were speaking with an accent she didn't understand. The phone is out of battery. She felt like a terrible day today and sat down on the side steps of the road dejectedly.

She looked up and saw a sign that said "Yixiangyuan", so she hurriedly ran to the opposite shop, followed the shopkeeper, and called Chen Xiao on her mobile phone. There are so many numbers on the mobile phone, only Chen Xiao remembers it.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, I'm lost. ”

"Lost? Where are you lost?"

"I'll tell you later, in this case, you go to the side of the road to help me find a taxi, and let the driver come to Yixiangyuan to pick me up immediately." ”

"What is the location, what is the name of the road?" Chen Xiao had never heard of such a place.

"I don't know the name of the road, I only know that I'm in Yixiangyuan now, and this place may not be searchable by navigation. ”

"I'll go, then you wait, I'll go find the car now." ”

"Okay, hurry up, just tell the driver that I'll be waiting for him in front of a shop with a sign on it. Before hanging up the phone, she suddenly thought of something and said, "Wait, you must not call my dad to pick me up." ”

"Got it. Chen Xiao really had a headache, and he refused to bow his head to his father at this time.

Xu Xinyi sat on the steps outside the small shop with her arms crossed in a daze, time passed by second by second, and she watched the number on the phone screen change from 5:25 to 5:26.

"Xinyi—" A familiar voice came from overhead.

She looked up to meet the black eyes.

"I'm sorry, I'll never tell her in front of you anymore, don't be angry, okay?" Zhao Bin looked apologetic.

Xinyi didn't answer him, and lowered her head and rested her chin on her arm.

"I've been looking for you for a long time, and I'm not familiar with the road here, and I can't get through to your phone. I'm really anxious, I'm really afraid of losing you like this. Zhao Bin walked up to Xu Xinyi and squatted down, looking at her eyes affectionately, "Promise me, don't leave me in the future, okay, don't let me not find you." ”

Xu Xinyi pouted, stretched out her arms aggrievedly, hugged his shoulders and buried her head in Zhao Bin's arms.

After a while, he smiled and hooked his neck and said, "Next time, you will bring me to eat crayfish." ”

Zhao Bin smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll bring you here next time, I really can't help you." ”

Seeing his helpless appearance, Xinyi stuck out her tongue coquettishly and grimaced.

Her long eyelashes and pink little tongue made Zhao Bin can't help but kiss them.

The air suddenly became very sweet. Xu Xinyi thought, maybe this is the paradise, the paradise of her and Zhao Bin.

"Xu..."A girl's abrupt voice came from the right, interrupting the ambiguous kissing between the two.

Xu Xinyi and Zhao Bin stopped their movements and turned their heads to look over. Chen Xiaozheng covered his eyes with both hands and shouted, "Okay, no, I'll give you ten seconds, if you don't leave, you won't be able to go back." ”

Xu Xinyi and Zhao Bin awkwardly replied in unison, "No need, we're fine!"

Chen Xiao put down his hands and said happily, "Let's go, the car is behind." ”

The three of them got into the car, and Chen Xiao sat next to the driver with interest. She didn't want to be a big light bulb for these two people. She saw that the two people behind her were quiet and silent, so she was enough to look in the rearview mirror, who knew that the two people were pinching their faces and noses in you and me, so unhappy.

Chen Xiao shook off goosebumps, "You two are enough, I am kind enough to save you, you are still abusing me here, do you have a conscience!"
