26. Chapter XXVI
As soon as Tan Xixi returned to City C, he contacted Qin Kun's assistant Yaoxiang, and learned from him that Qin Kun would not be able to come back for at least another month, and his heart was immediately relieved.
For a month, she was free to do whatever she wanted, as long as she didn't go far away.
This is also one of the reasons why this job is so cherished by Tan Xixi, as soon as the boss goes out to film, she will take a paid long vacation, not too comfortable.
The first thing I did was to make an appointment to go to the dentist at the earliest.
Dr. Li is still so elegant and elegant, but Tan Xixi can see a hint of surprise in his eyes, and after chatting a few words, it turns out that Dr. Li was also on vacation two days ago, and he only saw the appointment arrangement early this morning.
Chen Jiali is also there. Tan Xixi has formed a revolutionary friendship with Chen Jiali and Mi Peipei since the last class reunion, and they often go shopping together, and they also have a revolutionary friendship of singing in the small restaurant, so they left to say hello to her.
Chen Jiali pulled her, "I haven't seen you for more than half a month, let's have dinner together every day, I recently discovered a roast duck restaurant, the taste is very authentic." ”
Somehow, Dr. Li happened to pass by and heard a joke in a very restrained and elegant tone, "Jiali, I remember that last time you suddenly had something to leave early, and you also mentioned this roast duck restaurant when you threw the patient who was going to have a tooth extraction to me. ”
Chen Jiali smiled, "Then let's go together tomorrow, I'll have a treat!" ”
Dr. Li looked at Tan Xixi, "Will it disturb me if I go along?" ”
Tan Xixi hurriedly said, "Of course not, it will be lively when there are more people, and you can ask for two more dishes." ”
Dr. Li, "Then you're welcome, okay." ”
Tan Xixi wasn't sure if he was making an appointment with him in a vague way, so he dressed up very seriously the next day, and went to the restaurant with Chen Jiali with a little expectation, but he only saw Dr. Li sitting there waiting alone, and saw Tan Xixi go and smiled, "Jiali suddenly has something, there are only two of us left, are you still in the mood to eat?" ”
Tan Xixi's guess in his heart was answered in the affirmative, and he couldn't help but show a sweet smile, "Jiali has to eat if she doesn't come, I'll treat you to eat for her, and I'll ask her to come back when I go back." ”
The two of them talked and talked for more than two hours at a meal, just some very simple topics, but when it came out of Dr. Li's mouth, Tan Xixi would feel eloquent, and he didn't even taste the taste of the roast duck that Chen Jiali admired.
After the meal, Dr. Li took the initiative to pay the bill, and drove Tan Xixi back to the place where she usually got off, and almost didn't deliberately ask again, and the two naturally set a time to go out together next time.
Tan Xixi hummed a song all the way back, and as soon as he entered the door, he received a call from Chen Jiali, triumphant and ambiguous, "How can you thank me?" Bustle. ”
Tan Xixi hated her, "Go, let me thank you for releasing our pigeons!" ”
Chen Jiali smiled very obscenely, "Oops, hey, it's all us, who are we and whom?" No, you can't escape this Xie Matchmaker, next time you invite me and Pepe to eat seafood, I know that there is a hotel where I have a good and cheap seafood buffet. ”
Tan Xixi laughed with her for a few words, but she didn't say no invitation in the end.
When I went to see my mother Du Yuegui the next day, I complained, "Xixi, you have been back for a few days before you came to me, I don't know if your mother is worried about you!" ”
Tan Xixi talked to her mother on the phone when she was hospitalized in Windy City, and the reason she used was the same as that given to Qin Kun, that she accidentally fell and sprained her foot when she was brave and brave.
Although Du Yuegui knew that spraining her foot was not a big problem, she was inevitably worried, but when her daughter came back, she didn't know to come to see her as soon as she came, so she complained for the first time.
Tan Xixi was in a very good mood, smiling and nagging with her, and waited for Du Yuegui to say that she was almost done, and then said, "Mom, I'm busy now, I'm here to tell you this time, and I may not be able to come to see you every Monday in the future." ”
Du Yuegui was surprised, "Why?" ”
Seeing her daughter's uncluttered appearance, she suddenly came to her senses, clapped her hands, and said in surprise, "Xixi, have you settled the matter with that Dr. Li?" Why didn't you say it earlier! ”
Tan Xixi, "It's not settled yet, but-"
Du Yuegui interrupted her, "But what! What's wrong with this kind of thing, the achievement is successful, and the failure is not successful! Hee-hee, don't you want to learn from those crazy girls out there now, you can play with this kind of thing! ”
Tan Xixi stuck out his tongue, "I haven't said anything yet, you start educating people!" Although this kind of thing can't be used for fun, you have to get along for a while and feel the feeling. ”
Du Yuegui is still the same old-fashioned, "Then you are diligent, don't be lazy, it just so happens that Xiao Kun is not here these days, you often go to wash and cook for others, doctors work hard, you must be happy to eat when you go home, but you are not allowed to spend the night at other people's places, girls should be self-respecting when they are not married!" ”
Tan Xixi didn't dare to compliment her mother's thinking, "You still have to rush to do laundry and cook for others?" Mom, what kind of logic are you! ”
Du Yuegui ignored her and continued to worry, "You said that Dr. Li is quite young, does he have a house?" ”
Tan Xixi spread his hands, "Where can I ask now!" It's like how greedy I am for money, and I'm associating with Dr. Li just for his money. ”
Du Yuegui, "It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't have a house, the suite we bought is still empty, I can clean it up and give you to get married first, anyway, I don't need to live." ”
Du Yuegui was afraid that her daughter would spend money a few years ago, so she took out a loan with Tan Xixi to buy a small house, she paid the down payment, Tan Xixi paid the monthly payment, and the names of the mother and daughter were written on the real estate certificate. Who knew that the house price was not high at that time, so they bought it. Now think about it, the house was used for Tan Xixi's marriage.
Tan Xixi was overwhelmed by her mother's series of interrogations and long-term plans, and retreated, and when she left, she faintly heard Du Yuegui nagging behind her, "Wouldn't it be good to settle down, and you have to get along for a while first?" What a good feeling! ”
After that, time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for Qin Kun to come back, Tan Xixi calculated, in this rare free time, because Dr. Li was busy with work, they only went out together four times, and couldn't help but feel a pity, such a little time together is really not enough to develop a relationship, plus Dr. Li is always polite, and she is the first time to interact with people, she can't let go at all, and the two of them have only held hands twice so far, and there is no breakthrough.
Qin Kun has been filming outside for a long time this time, and the locations in the northwest are all remote areas with vast wind and sand, the conditions are not good, and it is really hard, so after coming back, nothing was arranged, and he had to rest for a few days.
As soon as Qin Kun rested at home, Tan Xixi was busy, and he had to be idle all day long, and he had to occasionally entertain the agents who came to Qin Kun, his two brothers and one sister.
The agent and the two brothers are easy to say, a few of them are busy people, come and have a cup of tea and leave, just that sister has free time, and it is necessary to rub the rice when she comes. She is very obedient, Qin Kun told her last time that she should not always target her nanny, she will not target, but change her strategy, the amount of food suddenly increases, and the taste is more complicated, a meal to eat Chinese stir-fry, Chinese stew, Western salad, Western grilled lamb chops, after the meal, you have to eat a red bean paste as a dessert, and in the end it is not enjoyable, and you have to have a fruit platter with a glass of freshly squeezed juice.
Tan Hee-hee was so busy that she almost implemented her cabbage worm plan.
When Qin Kun's routine returned to normal, and she was busy going out to work every day, Tan Xixi was surprised to find that she hadn't contacted Dr. Li for more than a week.
When the phone called, Dr. Li was seeing a doctor, and his tone was a little detached, saying that he was working, and it was inconvenient to hang up after saying more.
Tan Xixi was a little disappointed, but he was relieved to think that the other party was working.
Wait for the other party to get off work and then call yourself, who knows that you will wait until the next day. Tan Xixi couldn't help but dial Dr. Li's phone again.
This time, it was the front desk nurse of the dental department who picked it up, saying that Dr. Li had an important patient and could not be disturbed, so he left his mobile phone at the front desk and entrusted her to pick it up, and he could tell her if there was anything, and wait for Dr. Li to finish telling her.
Tan Hee-hee asked her to ask Dr. Li to call her back.
This time, I was a little restless, and I had a faint bad feeling in my heart, but I had a strange premonition, and no one called back until twelve o'clock in the evening.
Tan Xixi was uncomfortable now, she didn't scratch and worry about it, she really lacked experience in love, and she didn't know how to deal with this situation where the other party suddenly became cold.
After thinking about it all night, I felt that I had to ask clearly, otherwise what was going on? I guessed if it was because Qin Kun had just come back and was too busy to contact Dr. Li, so he was unhappy or misunderstood.
If this is the case, Tan Xixi is determined to sit down with him and have a good talk, and explain her work clearly, even if she can keep telling Chen Jiali that she is doing private customization, she can't keep telling Dr. Li like this, and both parties should be honest about their relationship.
The next day, I continued to call, but the front desk nurse answered.
I called three times the next day, but each time there was no answer.
Tan Xixi endured it for another two days, and Qin Kun was going out after lunch that day, she cleaned up the table and saw that there was nothing to do with herself for the time being, and finally couldn't stand the uncomfortable feeling in her heart, hanging in the air, and hid back in the room and dialed Dr. Li's mobile phone.
This time, Dr. Li finally answered the phone, "Hey, Miss Tan." ”
Tan Xixi was stunned for a moment, "You-" Haven't you already started calling her Xixi.
The voice over there was faint, "What's the matter?" ”
Tan Hee-hee took a deep breath, "What's wrong with you lately?" Why didn't you answer my call? ”
"It's nothing, it's just a little busy, and it's inconvenient to pick it up."
"I don't know about you, but I think there may be some misunderstanding between us and we need to sit down and talk."
"It's nothing, I don't think it's necessary."
Tan Xixi felt angry, "Then I'll go to the dental clinic to find you!" ”
The other side seemed to sigh helplessly, "Okay, since you insist on meeting, let's meet." I'm on vacation today, and I'm out there now, so come in half an hour if you can get there. Saying that, I reported an address, which was the tea room of the sightseeing hall on the top floor of the XX commercial building.
Tan Xixi grabbed his bag and ran out, passing Qin Kun and Yaoxiang, the assistant who came to pick him up, only had time to say, "I have something urgent, go out." ”
I ran outside and wanted to stop a taxi, but the road was very clean at noon, and there was no car passing by for almost five minutes.
Tan Xixi stomped her feet and wanted to run to the subway station, Qin Kun's car drove up from behind, stopped beside her, the front window was lowered, Yaoxiang sat in the driver's seat and asked loudly, "Xixi, what are you running on the street?" ”
Tan Xixi was anxious, "I can't stop a taxi, I want to take the subway." ”
The back door was pushed open from the inside, and Qin Kun's slightly impatient voice sounded, "Come up!" ”
Tan Xixi was stunned for a moment, he really couldn't care about it, and raised his feet to get into the car, "I'm going to XX Road XX Building, are you in time." ”
Qin Kun was also wearing sunglasses in the car, ignored her, and said directly to Yaoxiang who was driving, "Send her over first." ”
Tan Xixi had no time to care about Qin Kun's attitude, and felt as uncomfortable as if he had been pinched by something, taking deep breaths all the way, trying to calm himself down.
At noon, the road conditions were good, XX Road was not far, Yaoxiang drove for fifteen minutes, Tan Xixi hurriedly thanked him, jumped out of the car and ran inside.
Fortunately, the environment of the XX building is relatively high-end, and there is a welcome at the door, which saves Tan Xixi the trouble of looking for it, and directly instructs her to take the elevator to the top floor sightseeing floor.
The environment of the tea room on the top floor is elegant and comfortable, and each group of seats is very far away, ensuring that sitting here to drink tea and chat will not be affected by the guests next to it.
Tan Xixi found Dr. Li in a group of booths, and was directly stunned when they met, only to see him and a young girl with shoulder-length chestnut curls sitting intimately side by side in the couple's seat, and each of them had a drink in front of them, which showed that they had been sitting so intimately for a long time.
When Dr. Li saw Tan Xixi arrive, he also kept his sitting posture and did not move, only nodded and signaled, "Miss Tan, you are here." ”
Tan Xixi walked over with cold hands and feet, staring at Dr. Li's face, "What's going on?" ”
Dr. Li introduced the girl next to him, "This is Linda, my classmate when she was studying in the United States, she just returned to China last month. ”
Tan Xixi was silent, "Well, then what? ”
Dr. Li smiled, and the gentle smile that had been seen in Tan Xixi's eyes before became extremely dazzling now, "You also saw it, she is now my girlfriend." I asked you here to tell you, please stop pestering me, I already have a partner, it's useless for you to go to the dental clinic to make trouble, they won't take care of the private affairs of the employees, and it will be you who will be embarrassed by the time. ”
Linda has been looking Tan Xixi up and down, and then she opened her mouth, her tone is delicate and low, very charming, if she usually hears it, Tan Xixi may still praise it in her heart, but now she is completely out of this mood.
Because Linda said with full contempt in her nice voice, "Li, this is the little girl you said about who has always had intentions against you!" Alas, it's normal for a person like her to have a little longing for a man with particularly good conditions, don't be embarrassed, just send her away," he said and smiled at Tan Xixi, "Don't you do housekeeping in other people's homes, don't be discouraged, do a few more, and you can always meet someone who is suitable for you again." ”
Tan Xixi tried hard to hide her hands behind her, because her hands were shaking, and at this time, she didn't want the two people opposite to see that she had been hit!
is still the same sentence, she neither stole nor robbed, she has always been self-reliant, earning her own flowers, and she can touch her conscience and tell everyone that she is worthy of the society and her family, so she will never accept insults from others for no reason.
When he opened his mouth, he wanted to say two hard words to dismiss them, but he found that his breath was unsteady and he couldn't make a sound at all.
Suddenly, a very steady hand was held on his shoulder, and a very familiar breath came to his side, only to hear Qin Kun's voice ringing in his ears, "Xixi, why did you come here by yourself?" See a friend coming over to say hello? ”
Tan Xixi miraculously recovered from the stiffness of his whole body, turned his head to look at Qin Kun, and could still smile, "Yes, a friend just called and said that he was here, so I thought about coming over and saying a few words to him before I went to look for you." ”
Qin Kun took off the sunglasses on his face and nodded at the two people who were a little stunned opposite, "I'm Xixi's friend." ”
Linda had already opened her mouth wide regardless of her image, and stood up suddenly, "You are Qin Kun!" ”
Qin Kun faced her with a very standard polite and detached expression, "Yes, I'm sorry, I still have something to do with Xixi, I'm afraid you can only talk about it next time we meet." ”
Linda stammered, "She-she-she's-"
Qin Kun nodded at the two of them again, and then neatly put Tan Xixi's shoulders on the shoulders, turned around and left, leaving the two of them with a straight and handsome back.
Tan Xixi didn't speak until he sat back in Qin Kun's car, but his breath was still a little unstable, "Why did you come up?" ”
Qin Kun asked Yaoxiang to drive quickly, he was going to be late, and then glanced at Tan Xixi, "You don't look in the mirror yourself, I didn't follow the way I got out of the car just now to see if it would work?" Are you so stupid, rushing to the door to bully people! ”
Tan Xixi was suddenly aggrieved, flattened his mouth, endured it, endured it, and endured it again, but he still couldn't hold it back after all, his eyes were red, and tears flowed down.
Qin Kun was startled by her, and reflexively dodged back, "You won't be there, right?" ”
Tan Xixi, who was hung in the air, didn't scratch or scratch for several days, and finally found a way to vent, crying uncontrollably, tears flowing, sobbing and choking, "Who said no!" It's hard to die! ”
Qin Kun felt that his forehead was jumping suddenly, helpless, risking the risk of rubbing his tears and snot, tentatively stretched out his hand, patted Tan Xixi's round shoulder as comfort, and said to Yaoxiang, "I'll go up myself when I get to the place later, you send her home first, this terrible appearance really can't leave her outside alone!" ”
Yaoxiang was also helpless, "Oh, got it." ”
