Chapter 9: JOKER (1)
As soon as Xiao got out of school, she saw Xia Youran standing in the crowd and looking around, unlike in the past, she was carrying a big box and a small backpack today, looking like she was going to go far away. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Xia Youran ......" Xiao suddenly felt a little panicked, Xia Youran often had such plots in the eight-o'clock idol dramas he watched. Did she come with her luggage to say goodbye to her, or did she want to run away from home with her? But Xia Youran did not marry Brother Ze, so he couldn't stage the so-called divorce drama at all. It's still awkward with Brother Ze, but after thinking about it, neither of them has been home recently, and they haven't even seen each other, so how can they quarrel?
"Why are you running in such a hurry!" Xia Youran took Bai Xiao's hand and squeezed out of the crowd. The current Xia Youran is no different from usual, but she is very happy, but why she is holding this big luggage makes Bai Xiao a little puzzled.
"You are taking this box to ......" He began to shake Xia Youran's hand behind his back, and held it tightly with all his might. I really want to know the reason, but I'm afraid that knowing the truth will be devastating.
"Have you forgotten that I made it very clear to you last night, and tomorrow will be the 11th National Day...... I was going to the comic booth because I had to catch the evening train, so I brought my luggage straight over. Xia leisurely took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, now take the subway to the train station, the time is more than enough.
"Oh, so that's ......" Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, yesterday Xia Youran went to his room to say something, but he was busy playing games, and he didn't notice what Xia Youran said. It turns out that she was talking about this at the time. He knew about the Comic Con, Xia Youran had been preparing for this for several months, although he knew that no one would come to patronize it at that time, but that was her job, and there was no way to do it. Influenced by Xia Youran, he will also participate in comic conventions several times a year, and it seems that this time he was not spared. "Brother Ze and Ah Hao aren't going?"
"They've been working overtime lately, so they don't have that much time...... Xia leisurely sighed, if they can go together, maybe her business will be better, after all, this is a face-watching society, with the two of them looking at the stalls, she can take the time to go around shopping, there are cartoonists she likes these days, and she also wants to go over and see herself up close and get a sign. However, they couldn't go, and she could only think about it.
"Then I can also ......" Xiao actually wanted to say that he could actually stay at home or go to Bai Ze's, but before he could say anything, he was rejected by Xia Youran.
"Do you want to say that even if you stay home alone, it's okay?" is worthy of Xia Youran, she knows the little Jiujiu in Xiao's heart well.
"You even found out about this?" Xiao was a little humble and didn't dare to refute anything.
"Of course not, if you are home alone, how dare I go out with confidence, and I still want to rely on you to help me attract business." Xia Youran finally spoke his heart.
"Didn't you say your comics still have some readers?"
"That ......" Xia leisurely smiled awkwardly, there are some readers, which are only available for free reading on the Internet, and it is still a little difficult for them to spend money to buy their own comics. But there won't necessarily be my fans at Comic-Con...... So you still have to work hard to attract business. (Xia Youran can only say this, if Xiao can't die, without this 'Kanban Niang', she may not be able to sell a single comic.) )
It was already past eleven o'clock when he came out of the train station, and Xia Youran was holding the confused Xiao in one hand and a big box in the other. Because she is not an important cartoonist, the company did not send a special car to pick her up, so she had to wait in line for a taxi by herself. It may be that it is the rush hour of Eleven, and even after eleven o'clock in the evening, there are still many people waiting for taxis. The line in front of him basically couldn't see the end, which made Xia Youran a little headache, if he arrived earlier, he could still take the subway, but there was no choice but a taxi at this time of time. As for why she didn't choose to take a plane, it was because Xia Youran still had the shadow of Xia Yun's accident in her heart, she couldn't take a plane, and she was very sick and dizzy.
"Xia leisurely...... Ha...... Haven't waited for the car yet? Xiao yawned a lot, her head little by little, her voice getting weaker and weaker, and she almost fell asleep. Xia leisurely picked him up, let him sit on top of the suitcase, and pushed him forward.
"It's almost ...... There are only a few people in front of us, and it should be our turn soon. Xia Youran touched Bai Xiao's cheek with his hand, and the little face was blown cold by the wind passing through the hall. It was said that there were only a few people, but she had no idea when it would be her turn.
"I want to sleep in a warm bed...... It would be nice if Ah Hao and the others came together......" Xiao said in a daze, and then leaned on Xia leisurely to sleep. Xia Youran finally saw the front of the team, and it was obviously about to be his turn, but he didn't know why there was a quarrel in front of him, and the queue began to mess up. The uncle in front of Xia Youran squeezed forward to take a look, but he didn't come back for a long time.
The people who had been waiting behind saw that the team had not moved forward for a long time and began to riot, I don't know who pushed Xia Youran, Xia Youran tripped forward, Xiao also flew out of the suitcase and fell heavily to the ground.
Probably due to the sudden pain, Bai Xiao was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses. His butt slammed on the ground, and his palm seemed to be a little bruised. There were tears in the corners of his eyes, but he couldn't hold back his tears.
"Xiao, are there any injuries?" Xia Youran hurriedly got up and hugged Xiao in his arms, completely ignoring the suitcase that had fallen to the ground. At this juncture, the most feared thing is that there will be a stampede, Xia leisurely looked at the surrounding situation vigilantly, and did not dare to relax at all. However, fortunately, the staff came forward to maintain the order, otherwise, the scene was really unimaginable. After being comforted by the staff, the team quickly quieted down, and a man in a black T-shirt stepped forward to pick up Xia You's suitcase, and checked Xiao's palm, which seemed to be done in one go.
"It's just a little bit of skin, it's not a big deal." He unscrewed the mineral water in his hand and washed Xiao's two palms.
"Nanshan?" When he saw the person coming clearly, Xia Youran shouted out in a lost voice, "Why are you here?" ”
"I'm here for my classmate's wedding, and I'm on the same train as you." His tone didn't seem to be as cold as before, "Which district are you going to?" ”
"Haizhu District ......"
"If you don't mind, let's go together, I'm going over there too, it's not safe for the two of you to ride in the car so late." Is that the tone of his speech? Xia Youran hesitated a little, obviously he was always fierce, but he would show such an expression, was it because he was in a good mood?
"En......" Xia nodded leisurely, although it was just a polite word, she obviously felt very happy.
The uncle who walked over to see the excitement finally came back.
"Uncle, what's going on up front?"
"It's just that someone cut in line, and then the fight started...... Now several people have been taken away. Sure enough, it didn't take long for the team to move forward again.
During this period, Xiao didn't speak, just lay on Xia Youran's shoulder, glaring at the man with the rest of his eyes. When he first saw this person, he had a very bad impression of him, because he bullied Xia Youran and said ugly things, but what did Xia Youran think of this person?
"Your son?" Nanshan, who had already heard about the incident from Chen Qingqing, still asked again.
Xia Youran was stunned for a moment, but still nodded.
Nanshan just smiled, but didn't continue to ask anything. Soon it was their turn, Nanshan helped put the suitcase in the trunk, he didn't have any luggage himself, only a backpack.
After getting in the car, he asked the address of the hotel where Xia Youran was staying, and told the driver to drive directly over there.
"Is this a tour?"
"Well, that's pretty much it." Xia Youran has never mentioned to others that she is a cartoonist, after all, her comics are still not so popular, and she is several grades worse than famous artists. Besides, she and Nanshan are not so good, so there is no need to tell him all her situation.
Nanshan took out a sticky note paper from his backpack, wrote a string of numbers on it, and handed it to Xia Youran, "This is my number, call me if you have anything." ”
"My ......" Xia Youran took the piece of paper, glanced at it, and held it tightly in his hand, through the rearview mirror, Nanshan observed Xia Youran's expression at this time, he didn't know how she looked at herself, just like Zhao Yifei said, in emotional matters, everyone is a fool.
"I already know your number." Nanshan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, turned his head and said in a low and euphemistic tone, no anger or surprise. There was silence after that, and no one knew what to say next. However, Xiao, who is an outsider, observed the situation of the two of them with a good look, and he thought that when he went back, he must report the current situation to Ah Hao.
At night, there were fewer cars, and the speed was relatively fast, and soon I arrived at the hotel where Xia Youran was going to stay. The car stopped at the door of the hotel, Nanshan got out of the car very gentlemanly to help her take her luggage out of the trunk, and after stabilizing it, she opened the car door and was about to get into the car.
"Wait a minute......" Xia Youran stopped Nanshan, who was about to get into the car. She took out a hundred-dollar bill from her pocket and handed it to Nanshan. If she was with Bai Ze or Lin Chenhao, she would never have to think about this, but the other party was Nanshan, and she was not even a friend with herself, so it didn't seem good to take advantage of him like this.
"No need......" he laughed and got into the car. (If it were the usual Nanshan, he would definitely yell at Xia Youran: Are you looking down on me?) )
Watching the car drive away, Xia You was stunned all the time. It turns out that he will smile at himself too! (I suddenly had a very strange feeling in my heart, what was that?) )
"Xia Youran!" Bai Xiao tugged at her clothes, "You don't like that nasty ghost, right?" ”
"How...... What could possibly...... Don't talk nonsense, kids! Xia Youran began to stammer a little when he spoke, and his face became extremely red.
"That family is gone, what are you still doing here?"
"I know, you talk a lot!" Xia leisurely dragged his suitcase to the lobby.
in a taxi.
"Guest, where are you going?"
"Go back to Baiyun District...... Nanshan in the passenger seat took out his mobile phone and dialed, "Hey, where are you?" ”
It seemed to be very noisy on the other side of the phone, and I couldn't hear anything clearly...... However, Nanshan still said to the other end of the phone, "Send your address to my mobile phone." ”
