54. Chapter 54
The car drove from the countryside to the town, and the fuel tank was about to reach the location of the cordon, so Qiao Zhengqi followed the navigation to find a nearby gas station.
The two drove to the town, and ran into the only gas station in the town that was closed, Yuan Lu glanced at the mailbox prompt, about 20 kilometers more, and said: "Do you want to go to City A?" β
City A is adjacent to the town, is the original heron parents have been living in the town-level city, the first two years to merge several small attractions in the city into a large scenic spot, the urban infrastructure to keep up with a lot, even the gas station has opened two new two.
Qiao Zhengqi glanced at the sky: "After going around to City A to refuel, it is estimated that it will be two or three o'clock in the middle of the night when I get home." β
Yuan Lu kept yawning in the car, Qiao Zhengqi saw it in his eyes, a little pity, couldn't bear her to be tired on the road, turned the steering wheel, and asked, "Do you want to go back to your hometown?" β
Hara: "You mean we're staying there at night?" β
Yuan Lu thought about it, although City A is not an area where the scenic spot is located, but there are a lot of small scenic spots every May 11 and a few long vacations, which will book a hotel I am afraid that the rooms are full.
"Do you want to go back?"
Of course Yuan Lu thought about it, and nodded without hesitation: "Why don't you drive the car over and refuel first, I'll use my mobile phone on the way to check if I can book a room, if not, we'll rush back overnight." β
Qiao Zhengqi re-entered the address in the navigation, while Yuan Lu used the APP software to check hotels and guesthouses on the side.
Sure enough, the hotel was almost full, and there were a few rooms left, but as soon as I called to confirm the boss, I was vague, Yuan Lu didn't trust it very much, and I was afraid that the hotel owner would sit on the ground and raise the price, and Qiao Zhengqi was reluctant to let her toss again.
Turning over and around, it seems that only the only five-star hotel that was newly completed in the first two years of city A is quite reliable, there are many vacant rooms, there is a lot of choice, and the price is naturally expensive, but at least it is stronger than the uncomfortable living in the hotel and being pitted.
When the two of them arrived at the hotel after refueling in City A, it was almost half past nine in the evening.
The service staff at the front desk glanced at Qiao Zhengqi holding Yuan Lu's hand tightly, and asked with a smile: "How many rooms are there for Mr. and Miss?" β
The root of the original heron's ears burned: "I just made an appointment on my phone." β
The front desk said, "Please report your mobile phone number, and I will help you confirm it." β
Yuan Lu reported his mobile phone, and the front desk moved the mouse to check the information on the computer, and asked, "Do you want to upgrade the room?" You booked a corridor room on the sixth floor online, next to the boiling water room, it may be a little noisy, I can help you apply for a free upgrade to a suite. β
Yuan Lu lowered his head, the whole person was as red as a boiled shrimp, I wanted to finish it quickly, they came to the hotel to register for a room, and the eyes of the people next to them were somewhat ambiguous.
"Let's go up." There was a bit of urging in Yuan Lu's tone.
The front desk smiled standardly: "The application is done, please Mr. and Miss show their ID documents." β
Qiao Zhengqi asked the front desk: "Are there any large supermarkets around here?" β
The front desk looked like I understood, and said meaningfully: "Sir, you basically have the hotel suites you need, if not enough, you can also call the front desk to let the service staff send it to you, supermarkets generally close at eleven o'clock in the evening, there is a Wal-Mart nearby." β
Yuan Lu was ashamed and ashamed, and secretly shook Qiao Zhengqi's hand that was holding her, and said in a low voice beside him, "Don't go to the supermarket so late." β
Qiao Zhengqi glanced at her and asked generously, "Do you want to use the hotel's towel?" β
It turned out to be because of this...... Yuan Lu's embarrassment was not alleviated by his generosity, on the contrary, he couldn't raise his head even more because of his own crankiness.
Qiao Zhengqi has some cleanliness habits, and has never used the hotel's toiletries, and generally brings his own towels, toothbrushes, and bath towels on business trips, on the one hand, because of cleanliness, on the other hand, because of environmental protection, and less use of disposable things.
The two booked a room and went out of the hotel and went to the nearby Walmart, booked a room with a kitchen to cook, and Yuan Lu simply bought all the ingredients for breakfast tomorrow morning.
Qiao Zhengqi picked out towels, toothbrushes, and bath towels and went to the underwear area to buy underwear, Yuan Lu was thinking about what to eat tomorrow morning in the fruit area, and had already bought a bag of toast, and picked two avocados and a box of blueberries, all of which were cold food, ready to make some hot soup and soup or something.
The supermarket was about to close, and the customers were scattered in twos and threes, Qiao Zhengqi bypassed the fresh food area to look for her, and found that she was bending down to reach the apples on the fruit stand, because her hands were short and out of reach, and the appearance of poking her neck on tiptoe was a little funny.
He walked over to help her get the two apples in the middle of the shelf, and Yuan Lu said with a little annoyance: "It's really unfair that God created man, why do human beings still want to humiliate themselves and create such an unscientific fruit stand, doesn't this show that human beings embarrass human beings and kill each other." β
Qiao Zhengqi rubbed the top of her head and said, "That's because some jobs should be done by men, and women just hide behind them and watch." β
Yuan Lu pursed his lips and said, "I went to the fresh area to buy some clams, I just passed by, and it seems to be good to make a clam steamed egg when I think about it." β
Qiao Zhengqi threw the things he picked up in his hand into the cart and coaxed her aside: "I'll help you pick out toothbrushes and towels and the like, you can pick out the underwear yourself, and I'll help you buy clams." β
Yuan Lu was pushed away by him, walked for a while, turned back a little uneasily, and just wanted to open his mouth to say a few words, but found that he was standing in place and looking at her, his eyes followed her closely, and even the posture when they were separated had not changed a bit.
She was stunned, and then a smile slowly overflowed on her lips: "Remember that clams have to be picked one by one, each one must be live, and a bad whole dish in a pot is not delicious." β
Qiao Zhengqi smiled faintly, looked at her with his eyes, and said, "Okay." β
Sometimes happiness does not need too many words, just a look at each other, two hot and hot souls will be tightly fused together, even if it is cooled, it has already become an indestructible piece of steel.
His eyes, with a heat that could melt her soul, had never been such a person, just by looking at her, he could tell her what love was.
There are thousands of languages and hundreds of millions of documents in the world, which are not as good as a glimpse of his attachment.
**********
After taking a bath, Yuan Lu stood on the balcony on the 24th floor of the hotel to overlook the entire city A.
She had never stood at such a height to see the city that had hurt her so much, and those bad memories gradually became sporadic and blurred in the dark night lights.
She went to make a cup of strong tea and looked to the northeast with the cup, where the city hospital was located, where the most painful memories took place. She hadn't been to that place for almost seven years, perhaps because she was too impressed, but on the contrary, she was almost unable to remember the faces of her parents when they left, and she only remembered blood, dark red and thick blood everywhere.
Yuan Lu took a sip of warm tea, and her slightly trembling hands gradually settled down.
In the northwest, school, and junior high school's short transfer experience, there is the youth of her, Lin Mu and Wu Jin, and a high school entrance examination that I will never regret not being able to take.
The boy who returned with light after a flash in the pan in life is about all the warmth in the memory of youth.
Family...... Invisible from the balcony on the twenty-fourth floor of the hotel, it is southeast of the back of the balcony, a home that has never been able to return since the parents and brother left.
It turns out that standing on a high place, I can see all the feelings and memories so red. Nude and thorough.
The phone rang, Yuan Lu shook his head, picked up the teacup, took a sip of bitterness and answered.
A long-lost number, Yuan Lu frowned.
Pressing the green answer button, her voice was slightly lazy: "Hey......?" β
An infinitely amplified discotheque voice came from the earpiece of the mobile phone, and Yuan Lu's brows locked deeper: "Wu Jin, what tricks are you playing?" β
There was no answer on the phone for a long time, and Yuan Lu wanted to pick up the phone, but was disturbed by a sobbing sound mixed with noisy music.
"Speak."
"Yuan Lu, where is she okay if you sue me?" Three points of drunkenness with seven points of pain.
Yuan Lu took her mobile phone back to the balcony, the cold wind at night woke her mind, and she asked in a countervalual voice: "She has been gone for so long, you only remember to make a phone call to ask where she is?" β
Yuan Lu held a bad breath in her heart, if it weren't for Wu Jin, Yao Fei wouldn't have contacted her until now.
"I checked, whether it was a train, bullet train, high-speed rail, airplane, guesthouse, hotel, Internet cafΓ©, I checked the place where I could register my ID card, but Yao Fei just deliberately didn't let me know where she went, so I cut off a clue that I could find her. Yesterday I couldn't help myself and made a phone call to her house......"
Yuan Lu gasped and asked sharply, "You called her house?" β
"Hmmm......"
Yuan Lu really wanted to scold him, but when the words came to his lips, he heard the helpless cry of a big man and felt a little pitiful, and sighed: "Then did her family say where she was?" β
"No, Yao Fei hasn't called home for almost a month." Wu Jin's consciousness gradually began to sober up a little, "So you don't know where she is?" β
Yuan Lu said in frustration: "Look, what kind of role have you forced a person to? The closest family members and best friends don't care anymore, Wu Jin, can you get it. Live your fucking good life with your fiancΓ©e, and don't cause trouble for Yao Fei anymore. β
Wu Jin's worry deepened, and his tone was a little wooden: "She's alone...... I shouldn't have taken her home that night. β
Yuan Heron's ears pricked up: "That night? Are you taking her home? β
Wu Jin closed his eyes and fell into pain: "The night you were drunk together in Jingba...... I didn't want to let her down, but many times as soon as I turned around and couldn't see her for a while, she would be completely injured. β
"What do you want to say? To make it clear, what did you do to Yao Fei? β
Wu Jin smiled bitterly: "What can I do with her?" It's good that I haven't been treated by her, I'll run away when I sleep, I'm worse than a duck who was prostituted, she has the courage to prostitute me, but I don't have the courage to admit it. Hu Shuying came to my house that morning and called me to go to the hospital to deliver breakfast to the old man, I haven't gotten up yet, it is estimated that the two of them met downstairs, I got up and looked for someone in a panic, she dumped me so irresponsibly, and I had to say if the shoes I wore didn't fit, I was directly kicked as a broken shoe. β
Yuan Lu snorted, "You don't know how much spring it is worth?" Yao Fei must have been entangled by your flowery intestines. β
Wu Jin shouted: "Really! I just wanted to take her home that night to have a good rest, she was drunk like that, I was a sober living person who still wanted to take advantage of her at that time, am I any different from a beast? She was the one who came to tease me...... Alas, I also didn't control it for a while. β
Yuan Lu didn't listen to his nonsense: "If she's drunk, you should master the goodness!" Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I can't find her here, and I don't dare to call her home for fear that her parents will be suspicious, since you called, then let's look for it again, she told me before that she was going to Shanghai or Guangzhou, since the train and the like can't find the identity information, then go to the passenger station to find it, find those who are overloaded with private pick-up work, no ID card, and the ticket price is low, I estimate that Yao Fei will take a long-distance bus. β
When Wu Jin heard this, he had a glimmer of hope, and immediately came to his senses: "I'll go to the passenger station to check." β
Yuan Lu stopped him: "What time is it, it's the middle of the night, no matter how anxious you are, wait for tomorrow, you quickly withdraw from the disco and drink less, Lin Mu has not worried about you during this time." β
Wu Jin licked his dry lips and smiled a little silly: "Hehe, I just want to use alcohol to kill my sorrows, I'll go back." β
Yuan Lu just wanted to tell him to call her back immediately when he found Yao Fei, so he left the phone behind.
Yuan Lu stared at the screen that was hung up, gritted her teeth, and seemed to gradually come back to her senses, it turned out that Wu Jin was playing a bitter trick for her tonight, and she told him all as if pouring beans defenselessly.
In addition to being annoyed, Yuan Lu was a little happy, originally thought that the love between Yao Fei and Wu Jin had reached the end of the road, but after being cold for such a period of time, it was bright again.
