CHAPTER XXXIII 4

A few months later, Song Li got a new job under the arrangement of his uncle, and life seemed to return to its former peace.

On Tuesday, the leader notified everyone to go to Pingyao, Shanxi Province for activities this weekend, and you can sign up in advance. Song Li was not ready to go at first, because his mother was hospitalized with high blood sugar recently, his father put down his fledgling business and went to the hospital to take care of Song Li's two people in shifts, and then on Thursday, my mother was discharged from the hospital, I heard that Song Li's unit organized a tour, and asked her to sign up for anything, and her mother said that this was the first collective activity after going to work, and Song Li could not be absent, otherwise the colleagues in the unit should have an opinion on her in the future, and for another reason, they could not say it to Song Li, that is, since returning from Shanghai, They are always worried about what Song Li will do stupid things, so they have always regarded her to death, although she doesn't say it, but she is unhappy in her heart, and how can parents not understand, so they just take this opportunity to let her go out for a walk.

When it was almost noon, the group arrived at the ancient city of Pingyao, and when they arrived at the inn booked in advance to put their luggage, they hurriedly gathered everyone for lunch. After lunch, no one has the intention of resting, too, it is difficult to come out, and they are already very excited on the road, not to mention when they arrive at the ancient city, when they eat, someone will take a map to study where to go first, Song Li has no opinion, put on sunglasses and followed the army.

I heard that there was a performance in the Yamen in the afternoon, and I just walked around briefly, and I was pulled by my colleagues in the direction of the Yamen, but there were many tourists in the ancient city on the weekend, and several female colleagues squeezed forward, but Song Li did not hold the colleagues in front of him, and was squeezed out by the crowd, standing at the back and seeing nothing. There are many people, Song Li can't stand it a little, so he thought about coming out to find a place with few people and waiting for colleagues, and found a stone step to sit on, but the mobile phone rang, and the caller was the organizer of this event, saying that his colleague in the same room with Song Li didn't take the door key, and he just remembered it, and asked Song Li where the other two people are now, if it's convenient, go to him to get it, Song Li looked back at the crowd who were still watching the performance, and thought it would not be over for a while, so he asked the location of the other party, and he went over to find someone to get the key.

The other party said that they were now Rishengchang ticket number, Song Li took the map and studied it for a while, and felt that it was not very close to him, and when he went out of the yamen, he saw that there was a rental bicycle not far away, so he bet a hundred yuan and rode away. Ten minutes later, Song Li finally found Rishengchang, after entering the house, I found that there were not many people, I didn't see a colleague in the yard, so I entered the ticket number, and sure enough, I saw a colleague who was taking pictures, and my colleague handed Song Li the key, and the two people on her side talked and laughed, and when I turned around, Song Li's front foot went out of the house, just entered the yard, but the back foot was no longer moving.

A moment ago, a group of people suddenly came in the courtyard that seemed a little quiet, and several accompanying vice presidents were also wearing suits and leather shoes, which seemed to be a little abrupt with the atmosphere of the ancient city, and the man walking in front was dressed in casual clothes, bowing his head and listening to the explanation.

There was a vague smile on the corner of his mouth, and when he looked up inadvertently, he bumped into another person in the same courtyard.

He seemed to be fine, she thought.

She was fine, he thought, just fine.

"Mr. Chen? Mr. Chen? A vice president next to him shouted.

"Huh?" Chen Xi turned his head to look at him and smiled.

That night, Song Li didn't go back to live in the three-person room with his colleagues, and gave the organizer of the event an excuse to see a friend in Pingyao, and then was taken away by Chen Xi.

Chen Xi put down all today's entertainment and work, and took Song Li to a special restaurant that he had booked, Song Li didn't eat much, just sat opposite him, but kept looking at him like that.

"Don't look at it, you're almost a hopeful stone." Chen Xi quipped.

"Do you think of me as your wife?" Song Li asked.

Chen Xi was stunned.

"Just kidding you, don't care, I know you're married, I still remember it." Song Li smiled bitterly and lowered his head to eat the food.

"Can you not mention others," he looked up at her, his eyes full of distress, "I'll talk to you today, okay?" ”

"Okay, then what do you say you've been doing lately, have you eaten well, slept well, and ······ well?" She paused, swallowed back her tears, "Take your medicine." ”

Chen Xi smiled faintly, without the slightest surprise, because without his consent, Liu Xin would not tell her about this, "What about you, what have you been doing lately, have you eaten well, slept well, and ······ Think of me once in a while? ”

"Yes, but not occasionally, but often." Song Li smiled, "But it's much better now than it was then." ”

"What?"

"Well, I just don't cry when I think about you now."

"Hmmm······" Chen Xi pretended to think deeply, put down the chopsticks in his hand, leaned on the table, looked at Song Li opposite and said with a smile, "How can I feel a little sad when I hear you say this." As he spoke, his fingers gestured a little bit of meaning.

Song Li listened and smiled.

The ancient city at night is also lively, Chen Xi took her hand and took her to a bar street, and didn't do anything meaningful, just found a small table on the side of the street, ordered two bottles of beer, looked at the pedestrians on the street, listened to innocuous songs, and chatted about the details of life.

The night is very late, when I arrived at the hotel, I couldn't see anyone, the reception desk was very distinctive, and the hotel service staff was quite enthusiastic, as soon as I entered the room, Song Li was hugged tightly by Chen Xi from behind.

He hugged her and kissed her all over the room, and then on the large bed sprinkled with rose petals*, Song Li began to cry inexplicably, she didn't know why she was crying. And this is also the first time, Song Li no longer resists Chen Xi's closeness.

Song Li leaned on Chen Xi's shoulder and breathed steadily, Chen Xi knew that she hadn't slept, and this night, he couldn't sleep either.

He bowed his head, kissed her on the forehead, and whispered in her ear, "Shall we go out and sit?" ”

"Huh?" She looked up at him.

The two of them wrapped themselves in a blanket and entered the courtyard, there was a wooden table in the center of the courtyard, and there were several wooden chairs around it, and the courtyard was lit by candlelight, the orange light was a little dim, but it was somewhat in contrast to the quaintness around it.

Only then did Song Li notice the style of this hotel, the exquisite retro architectural style, as well as the wooden furniture in the room, as well as the hollow carved window frieze, and the faint fragrance of wood in the room.

"How did you end up here?" Song Li asked.

"I said I came to see you, do you believe it or not?"

"Believe, I believe everything you say."

Chen Xi lowered his head and couldn't help but smile. Song Li leaned over, got close and smiled, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"And what are you laughing at?" Chen Xi asked rhetorically.

"No, you laughed first······"

"You're not stupid!" Chen Xi touched her forehead with his forehead.

"Oops!" Song Li smiled and touched the head that was a little painful touched by Chen Xi, but he was caught off guard and kissed on the lips.

"Hmmm! What are you doing! Song Li's hand was on his shoulder, but his face suddenly turned red.

Chen Xi looked at Song Li's appearance, and suddenly felt a little drunk, he looked away in a panic, looked at the few stars in the sky, and let out a big sigh.
