After Xiao Ai left, I settled the money for the two of them to drink coffee, and then returned to the "Ade Hotel". I had only booked a room with Ade for three days, and now I have to wait for Xiao Ai, so I have to renew it for a few more days.

Walking into the hostel, Ade was lying on the table playing with his mobile phone, as if he was chatting with someone, I tapped the table with my fingers, and after attracting his attention, I said to him: "I may have to stay in Taipei for another day or two, I will renew the room fee for one day, and if I want to stay later, I will continue to make up." ”

Ade raised his head and looked at me, and replied: "Aqiao, you don't need to yell at me so politely, you can live in the room, pay the room fee, is the money you have enough to go back to Nanjing?" ”

"It's not enough for me to find a way, you live on this hostel, I can't take advantage of you like this!"

Ade pushed away the hand I handed him the money, and then said to me with a stern expression: "You want to treat me as a friend, don't be so cheesy, I will definitely go to the mainland when I have the opportunity in the future, and then you can also treat me as a friend!" ”

I nodded and didn't insist on it, because Ade was right, if he would go to Nanjing one day, remember to contact my friend, and I would definitely entertain him warmly.

Ade was in a good mood, he held his mobile phone and showed me the chat history between him and Lin Ziqing, they had already determined the time for the next time they had dinner together, and this speed of progress made Ade very grateful to me. He said that if I hadn't come to Taipei and given him the opportunity to create a zào, he probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to date Lin Ziqing in his next life.

I patted him on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, and then went back to my room on the second floor alone, and I simply packed my luggage so that I could go back to Nanjing at any time.

……

I can't remember how many evenings I have since I arrived in Taipei, I stood on the small balcony on the second floor and smoked a cigarette, looking in the direction of the setting sun, my mind was surprisingly calm in the warm breeze blowing through, and I even thought of my neighbors in the old alleys, and every morning and dusk on Tulip Road recently.

Exhaling the smoke in my mouth, I turned my body and turned my back to the railing, I really haven't enjoyed life so much in a long time, I don't have a mobile phone here, it seems to be isolated from the world, and there are no worries that the world has woven for me.

There was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, and then, Ade appeared in front of me with a convenient bag, he wiped the sweat on his face, and said to me with a smile: "Ah Qiao roar, this is the lotus mist I bought (Taiwan's specialty fruit), you can take it back and eat it." ”

I didn't take it from Ade's hand, just looked at the big gold chain around his neck and the tattoo on his bare arm, and then I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, this little Taiwanese man who looks arrogant on the outside, in fact, is poor and inferior, but very warm-hearted, although we have only been together for a few days, but the love that is about to be separated still makes me feel sad!

I went back to the room, took out all the Nanjing cigarettes I had brought this time, and then said to him: "You can take these cigarettes and smoke them, but try to smoke as little as possible, eat less instant noodles, and don't stay up late to play games......

Ade took the cigarette from my hand and grinned, "I understand that I can't please a woman in my current state, so I decided to change myself...... Aqiao roar, I plan to start renovating the Ade Hostel next week, making it a couple-themed one, a small balcony on the second floor, and a coffee bar and micro bookstore, and you will be pleasantly surprised when you come to Taipei next time! ”

I put my arm around Ade's shoulder and asked, "These are all the builders that Lin Ziqing gave you, right?" ”

"Well, she will put a little money into it and become the second shareholder of Ade Hotel, hehe......"

After Ade finished speaking, he smiled full of fantasy and expectation, I can't judge what the future of him and Lin Ziqing looks like from his positive smile, but it is an indisputable fact that they have become friends of the opposite sex, so I hope that Ade can continue to work hard, even if he can't win Lin Ziqing's heart in the end, at least there are no regrets.

"Ah Qiao roar, where is your guitar, can you lend me a few more songs?"

I nodded and pulled the guitar out of my suitcase......

In the sky at dusk, there are soft fire clouds floating, Ade, the fat player, plays Xiao Ai's guitar, and sings the song "Where We Seem to Have Met" in two voices, and Lin Ziqing, who has just finished school, happens to be standing downstairs with a book in her hand, she seems to be looking for Ami, but she is standing under the neon sign of the hostel, listening to Ade sing a whole song.

……

When the night was about to come, Ade was downstairs shouting my name, I stood at the window and looked, and found Xiao Ai dragging a red suitcase was standing outside the hostel, I hurriedly went downstairs, came to her side, and while taking her luggage, I asked her: "Have you already told your aunt about your idea of going back to Nanjing?" ”

"Hmm...... Give me your ID number, I booked a ticket, and now I can take the MRT to the airport, it's still too late. ”

I always thought that Xiao Ai would take at least a day or two to solve some of her affairs in Taipei, but I didn't expect that she would come to me after we were separated for most of the day.

I hurriedly went back upstairs to get my luggage, and then said goodbye to Ade, who was sitting at the bar, and Ade got up and followed me to the door of the hostel, he looked at Xiao Ai standing under the neon sign of the hotel, and said to me in a low voice: "Ah Qiao, Mr. Ruan is really going back to Nanjing with you?" ”

I nodded.

Ade gave me a thumbs up and exclaimed, "She is really a girl who dares to love and hate, you have to treat her well, or Jesus will not forgive you!" ”

I looked at Xiao Ai, who was standing not far away, and subconsciously remembered the scene when we first met in early autumn last year: it was a little hot and dry that night, she was dressed very coolly, I never felt that we had met anywhere, only regarded her as an uninvited guest. Now, I chased this uninvited guest thousands of miles to Taipei, and I think this is the fate between people!

I retracted my gaze at Xiao Ai, and then said to Ade with a smile: "I will treat her well, you and Lin Ziqing also cheer, I hope to hear good news from you and her one day...... Okay, my class brother, I'm back in Nanjing...... Take care! ”

After saying this, I patted Ade's shoulder, and then turned to walk towards Xiao Ai, who had been waiting for me, and I put my arm on her shoulder, and walked towards the road opposite the "Ade's Hotel".

"Aqiao ......"

I turned around with Xiao Ai, and Ade shook a box of Nanjing cigarettes at me with a box of Nanjing cigarettes in his hand, then took off the big gold chain around his neck, threw it into the trash bin next to him, and said loudly to me: "Thank you and Teacher Ruan for giving me the courage to choose my life again, and I will work hard to pursue Ziqing...... I hope you are happy too! ”

Xiao Ai and I glanced at each other, then waved goodbye to Ade together. I also bless him, although it seems unlikely that there will be a relationship between him and Lin Ziqing, but there is no shortage of wonderful fate in the world, just like me and Xiao Ai.

I don't want to look back at Ade's farewell to us, because I know that such a separation could be a lifetime! So every time I look back, it's a sadness.

……

Taking the MRT, Xiao Ai and I came to Taoyuan Airport in Taipei, I went to check in the luggage, Xiao Ai went to get the boarding pass, just when we were preparing for the security check, Xiao Ai's mother, who had a relationship with me in Nanjing, also rushed to the airport, my first feeling was embarrassment, and Xiao Ai was also full of accidents, she didn't expect her mother to chase to the airport to see her off.

"Ruyi ......"

"Mom, why are you here?"

Xiao Ai's mother looked at me who was standing two meters away, and then replied, "I'm still a little worried, so I'm coming to see you." As she spoke, she took Xiao Ai's hand, her expression full of pain that could not be parted, as well as self-blame.

"Mom, you don't have to worry about me, I have lived in Nanjing for more than 20 years, and I have friends and classmates, which is much more familiar than in Taipei."

She held Xiao Ai's hand tighter and tighter, and her voice gradually choked: "Yuan Zhen has gone to Japan to develop, Xiaowei has settled in Yangzhou again, you go back to Nanjing, my mother is really worried......"

Xiao Ai interrupted her with a reassuring smile, and then replied softly: "Mom, no problem, I'm not a child anymore, whether it's in Taipei or Nanjing, I can try to enjoy life......"

Xiao Ai stopped when she said this, she looked at me, and said to her mother: "You really don't have to worry about me, even if Yuan Zhen and Brother Xiao Wei are not in Nanjing, there are still people who are better for me there, and I will not be wronged." ”

I'm not a person with a particularly low emotional intelligence, I came to Xiao Ai's mother's side, and then called Auntie, but I didn't promise much. Because I feel that I have already taken practical action, if I am not determined to take care of Xiao Ai, how can I go all the way to Taipei to take her back?

Xiao Ai's mother finally nodded, and then asked Xiao Ai softly: "What you promised your mother, you must do it, you know?" ”

"I'll do it!"

The airport radio was already urging, Xiao Ai let go of her mother's hand, and then walked to the security check before me, which made her look very free, but her eyes were already full of tears, she was different from me, I left Taipei just to say goodbye to a city, and she wanted to part with family affection.

Although Xiao Ai had already passed the security check, her mother still refused to leave and kept standing there watching...... This makes me feel a little cruel, if it weren't for my trip to Taipei, their mother and daughter would still be able to go shopping in their spare time, and Xiao Ai will one day become a real teacher in a certain school, and then live a stable life, but Xiao Ai gave up this qiē.

In this way, in the distance between their mother and daughter, I felt the weight of my responsibility!

……

After a sprint, the plane raised its head and flew into the sky, and near the window, I once again saw the night view of Taipei. I had a lot of thoughts, and then silently said "goodbye" to the city that left a deep memory on me, while Xiao Ai next to me seemed calm all the time, just looking at a travel magazine provided on the plane.

It wasn't until I couldn't see the outside that I finally pulled down the visor and asked her with a hint of doubt, "What did you promise your mother?" Listening to her special emphasis, it must not be a trivial matter, right? ”

Xiao Ai looked at me with a stern expression, which made me nervous, but she said with a smile: "It's really not what you think, my mother just told me that I must train hard after I arrive in Nanjing, and I can't lose the acting skills I have accumulated over the years." Also, the figure can't be out of shape, keep the current temperament! ”

I looked at Xiao Ai and replied, "Don't be kidding, I really want to know!" ”

After Xiao Ai said "no kidding", she put on an eye patch, and I don't know if she really slept or fake sleep to get rid of my questioning.

I shook my head helplessly, then took off my coat, covered her body, and combed her somewhat messy sideburns, and then fell into a state of thinking, and Nanjing was getting closer and closer to us in the sound of the "boom" of the plane...... (Supplement)
