At one o'clock on Saturday afternoon, Ning Qingzhou and Jiang Hanxue accompanied Cao Yuqin to meet the landlord of the pù store at No. 221 Qinxi Street, where they met at another café called "Time Stands Still" on Qinxi Street.

The landlord is a middle-aged woman in her forties, with curly hair in a shawl, light lipstick on her mouth, a dark navy blue jacket and black trousers, sitting in a window seat and drinking coffee, giving people an elegant and relaxed feeling.

Cao Yuqin watched the landlady say "old acquaintances" to Jiang and Ning, and then walked over, while Ning Qingzhou and Jiang Hanxue chose another table to sit down.

"By the way, what did my brother talk to you about when he came to you alone that day?" Jiang Hanxue held the order in her hand, looked at Ning Qingzhou and asked.

"It's all between men." Ning Qingzhou replied with a smile.

Jiang Hanxue pursed her lips and asked unwillingly, "Is it related to me?" ”

"Why do you ask?" Ning Qingzhou glanced at Cao Yuqin, who was talking to the landlady, and said, "His own affairs are still unresolved." ”

"If it's just my brother and Sister Qin's matter, you will definitely call Qianfan, so let's be honest."

Ning Qingzhou looked at Jiang Hanxue with a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of appreciation, as if he was watching a never-before-seen scenery on the other side.

This was the first time since he came here that he had looked at Jiang Hanxue so blatantly and closely, probably due to the subtle change in his mentality after talking to Jiang Jianzhong.

Jiang Hanxue was a little flustered by this hidden aggressive gaze, which made Ning Qingzhou's arrogant momentum of "honestly explaining" suddenly drop by half, and he was silent.

This warm atmosphere lasted for about half a minute, Ning Qingzhou gently scratched the top of his head with his right index finger, looked like he had given up resistance, and said: "That's right, Brother Zhong is talking to me, it is indeed related to you, I can tell you, but you promise me not to tell your brother." ”

"I promise I won't tell him."

"Let's pull the hook."

"Ning Qingzhou!"

"Okay, okay, if you don't pull it, you won't pull it." Ning Qingzhou's arrogant expression of "what's the big deal" made Jiang Hanxue laugh too.

"Actually, I didn't say anything, just warned me not to have any bad intentions against you, if there is a bad intention, and it succeeds, I must not hurt you, otherwise even if I escape to the ends of the earth, he will not let me go. That's probably the kind of thing you can say. ”

Jiang Hanxue frowned when she heard this, shook her head and said, "My brother...... You must think he's saying a bad thing. ”

Ning Qingzhou shook his head and said seriously: "Frankly speaking, I think it's cool, an elder brother protects his sister like that, he stands there, and not a single bastard boy is allowed to get close to you, just like another form of catcher in the wheat field, if I have a sister, I will definitely do better than him." ”

Jiang Hanxue smiled: "What will you do?" ”

"I'll find out the eighteen generations of the ancestors of the guy chasing my sister behind my back." Ning Qingzhou stretched out his hand and emphasized: "This one also applies to my future daughter. ”

Jiang Hanxue laughed and said, "I really don't understand what you boys are thinking in their heads. ”

After chatting for a while, the two were about to order something formally, Cao Yuqin's side had already negotiated, Ning Qingzhou and Jiang Hanxue saw that she and the landlady both stood up, both of them were smiling, obviously talking very smoothly, Cao Yuqin said something again, reached out and shook hands with the landlady, the landlady nodded, and then left with her bag.

After the landlady left, Cao Yuqin walked over, snapped her fingers, and said, "It's done." ”

"Sister Qin's cow!" Jiang Hanxue and Ning Qingzhou praised in unison.

Ning Qingzhou stood up and said, "We don't need to order anything, let's go directly." ”

Cao Yuqin pressed Ning Qingzhou's shoulder and said, "No, no, we happen to have afternoon tea here, and I'm in for a treat." ”

Ning Qingzhou sat down again and said, "When I get the manuscript fee on the 10th, please go to eat with your index fingers, after eating so many meals of Sister Qin, it's time to return the meaning again." ”

Cao Yuqin smiled: "That's it." ”

Jiang Hanxue reminded: "On the 10th, we are going to Shangjing, and you have to come back from Shangjing to have a treat." ”

"Then I'll ask you when you come back from Shangjing."

The three of them then ordered something, and then used this café as an example to take its essence and imagine the future decoration pattern of the "long time no see" café.

At around two o'clock, the three of them left from the standstill of time.

In the following week, the theme of the life of the Penglai Six was basically Cao Yuqin's café, and on April 9th, Jiang Hanxue and Ning Qingzhou set off to Beijing to participate in the Thousand Degrees Conference. ”

Jiang Hanxue smiled and said, "Remember." ”

At 10 o'clock in the morning of the 9th, the plane to Beijing pierced the clouds over the new sea, two and a half hours later, the plane landed at the Shanghai airport, Jiang Hanxue and Ning Qingzhou out of the airport, according to the tips on the invitation letter to take a taxi to the "Sealand Hotel", just into the hotel gate, I saw the reception point set up by the staff of Qiandu at the front desk.

"Qiandu is a true tyrant." Jiang Hanxue whispered, walked over with Ning Qingzhou, explained briefly to the staff, and then showed the invitation letter, and after a little inspection by the Qiandu staff, he politely handed the room card and the invitation letter to the two of them.

"We've been together for so long, and this seems to be the first time we've come out and opened a room alone." While waiting for the elevator, Ning Qingzhou joked, and what responded to him was a white eye and a kick.

Jiang Hanxue was spicy and calm, but in fact, she was very nervous, after returning to her room, she sat on the bed for a while, they had been neighbors for so long, but he lived next door to him like this, it was the first time, that feeling was very subtle, so subtle that she couldn't help but think cranky, cranky and inevitably had strange dreams, strange but vivid dreams.

The self in the dream was also sleeping as it is now, but it was very shallow, between being half awake and half asleep, but the strange thing was that Ning Qingzhou appeared next to her bed at some point, with a slight smile on her face, looking down at herself. The self in the dream was obviously closed, but the look in Ning Qingzhou's eyes when she looked at her made her impressed and real.

I don't know how long the time has passed, Ning Qingzhou slowly leaned down and kissed his forehead, and then he actually lay down next to him...... At the moment of great panic, it was as if all the cells in the body had exploded one by one, but the hands and feet were fixed and unable to move.

The dream came to an abrupt end, like all dreams, Jiang Hanxue's dream did not have a complete ending, she woke up from the dream in the early morning, staring at the dark ceiling with her eyes open for a long time.

She was glad it was just a dream, and she was ashamed that she would have such a dream, but what she couldn't deceive herself was that the moment the cells of her panicked body exploded, her mind passed over the scene of flowers blooming one by one.

Struggling and expecting.

When I woke up the next day, the sun rose as usual, and I was safe and sound, but when I met Ning Qingzhou, it was a little unnatural, but it was within the scope of what could be concealed.

"I dreamed of you last night." When he went to the cafeteria on the first floor for breakfast, Ning Qingzhou suddenly said such a sentence with a smile, and Jiang Hanxue was instantly relieved.

"Let's just say that this kind of thing can't be a unilateral act of oneself."

……

The morning of the Qiandu Conference is the main forum, which opened at 10 o'clock, mainly several high-level executives of Qiandu gave speeches, and the topics revolved around the two major blocks of "embracing the Internet era" and "welcoming the arrival of the intelligent era", and finally the vice president of Qiandu introduced his company's new products.

What was supposed to be a boring speech conference turned out to be a lot of attention attracted a lot of attention by the future intelligence introduced by the leaders of the new technological era, which also triggered some unexpected inspiration.

At half past eleven in the morning, the main forum ended, and Ning Qingzhou and Jiang Hanxue left the hotel to go to a nearby KFC for lunch.

Originally, the two of them could stay in the hotel for dinner, but in the middle of the forum in the morning, Ning Qingzhou's mobile phone came to a text message prompting that the manuscript fee for March had arrived: 106685!

A long time ago, when Ning Qingzhou was not Ning Qingzhou, he had received Jiang Hanxue's original chicken and a hamburger, and he promised that if he became a great god one day, after getting the first manuscript fee, he would definitely invite Jiang Hanxue to eat KFC happily.

Now that the dream has come true, Ning Qingzhou naturally has to fulfill his promise.

Pushing the door into the store, Jiang Hanxue went to occupy a seat, Ning Qingzhou went to queue up to buy something, waited for more than 20 minutes, and finally lined up himself, Ning Qingzhou just ordered two pairs of roasted wings and two pairs of spicy wings, and suddenly heard someone next to him calling himself, turned his head and looked, it was Jingman with a thousand-degree work card hanging around his neck.

"Why are you here?"
