In the next few days, Duan Zilian was living a regular life.

Get up in the morning and go to the hospital to see her mother Zhong Yi and Li Shuning's situation, go home at noon to rest for a while, go to the café in the afternoon, study with your classmates, and go outside from time to time in the evening to eliminate those small and medium-sized xenobiotic beasts that attack people.

I heard Qian Meng say that in college, people who are really capable will arrange their day to the full.

Therefore, for a while, Duan Zilian found the feeling of going to college early during this winter vacation, although it was a little tired, but it was still very fulfilling.

Soon, four days passed.

On this day, after visiting her mother and Li Shuning, Duan Zilian came out of the hospital, looked up at the sky, and couldn't help sighing.

He could see that Li Shuning's state was obviously getting worse day by day, and if she continued like this, he didn't know how long she would last.

Hopefully she can keep going, at least until the day of the final, so she can hear her tunes......

Shaking his head helplessly, Duan Zilian walked forward and returned home directly on the bus.

After having lunch with Luo Xinyan and Luo Lingling at home, resting for a while, seeing that the time was almost up, Duan Zilian rode a bicycle and went to the café.

After about half an hour, he arrived at his destination, and he was the first to arrive.

However, when he arrived at the café, he found that the door of the café had been opened.

Seeing this situation, Duan Zilian's first thought was that Qin Qiaoyun should have returned, and basically there was only this possibility.

When he entered the café, he unexpectedly saw Qin Qiaoyun sitting at the bar.

After saying hello to Qin Qiaoyun, Duan Zilian couldn't help asking, "Aunt Qiao, you're back, when did you come back?" ”

Seeing Duan Zilian, Qin Qiaoyun smiled: "It didn't take long for me to come back at eleven or twelve o'clock at noon, and I went out to travel for several days, and I was going to be tired to death." I thought I'd come back and see you studying with your classmates. ”

"We usually start studying at two o'clock in the afternoon, and now there are more than ten minutes left. Oh, by the way, Aunt Qiao, the key will be returned to you. While speaking, Duan Zilian returned the spare key to the café to Qin Qiaoyun.

Putting the key away, Qin Qiaoyun looked at Duan Zilian with a smile: "After I came back, I counted it, and there were a lot fewer coffees of various flavors, although these coffees were bagged instant coffee, which was not worth much, but ......"

Qin Qiaoyun didn't finish her words, but Duan Zilian understood what she meant, and suddenly couldn't help but show a stunned expression: "Aunt Qiao, shouldn't it be asking for money?" Didn't you say let's drink whatever we wanted? ”

Qin Qiaoyun spread his hands: "I let you and your classmates drink as you like, but I didn't say it was free." ”

Duan Zilian: "......"

At this moment, Duan Zilian had an urge to vomit blood, feeling as if he had been tricked by Qin Qiaoyun.

"Well, how much, I'll pay you." Shaking his head helplessly, Duan Zilian took out his mobile phone, ready to scan the QR code and transfer money to Qin Qiaoyun.

Although he and the others have drunk a lot of coffee in the past few days, a bag of instant coffee is not expensive, so he plans to pay for the total coffee money, and he is not short of that money anyway.

It's just that just when Duan Zilian asked the mobile phone to scan the QR code, Qin Qiaoyun suddenly laughed:

"No need, I'm just joking, I didn't expect you to take it seriously, I feel like you're just easier to take it seriously, and I can't even tell if I'm joking."

"Huh?" It's just a joke, Duan Zi was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, speechless for a while.

Crying and laughing, he put away his mobile phone, Duan Zipian was speechless for a while, and directly opened the topic: "Aunt Qiao, where have you been traveling these days?" ”

"I didn't go anywhere, I just went to some attractions in the surrounding area......"

Qin Qiaoyun briefly talked about the journey, and also showed some photos of scenic spots to Duan Zilian.

Some chatted for a while, and the time was ready until two o'clock in the afternoon, and the students also came to the café one after another with backpacks on their backs, ready to study.

Seeing Qin Qiaoyun, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then, without thinking about it, they knew that she was the owner of this café nine times out of ten.

As an intermediary, Duan Zilian made a brief introduction one by one.

Then, Duan Zilian sat with her classmates.

And Qin Qiaoyun was bored, so he simply made them coffee.

Soon, it was two o'clock in the afternoon, but the people had not yet arrived.

"Huh? There is one person missing, what about Xu Ying? Doesn't she usually come early? Why are you late today? "It's time, but Xu Ying hasn't come yet, so Duan Zilian is a little strange.

"I don't know." The squad leader and the others shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know anything.

"Nothing is going to happen, is it?" The Labor Committee said casually.

"Don't crow's mouth." Zhou Lan, who had the best relationship with Xu Ying, immediately glared at the Labor Committee angrily when she heard this.

"I'm just talking......" The labor committee suddenly looked aggrieved.

"Maybe it's just that she's just late, or let's learn it ourselves first, and we won't wait for her. I sent a message in the group to urge her. The school committee pushed his glasses and said, took out his mobile phone, and sent a message in the group to urge Xu Ying.

"Huh? What's the matter, if you don't study at the point, what are you discussing? At this time, Qin Qiaoyun came over curiously, and brought everyone a cup of steaming coffee.

"It's nothing, it's just that one of my classmates hasn't come yet, and I'm late." Duan Zilian replied.

Qin Qiaoyun immediately said: "Maybe it's just that I'm late for some reason." ”

"Maybe." Duan Zilian responded casually.

"Then I won't disturb your study, if you don't have enough coffee, or if you want to drink something else, you can call me." After saying this, Qin Qiaoyun returned to sit at the bar.

Duan Zilian didn't think about it that much, took out books, workbooks and some other learning tools from her backpack, and began to devote her energy to studying.

However, more than ten minutes passed, and Xu Ying still did not come.

"What's going on? Even if you're late, that's too long, right? And there is no news in the group. Duan Zilian frowned, and when he saw that there was no movement in the group, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Maybe I overslept during my nap." Cui Kairui put down his pen and guessed.

"Or maybe there's something else that's delayed, so I can't come today." The Labor Committee also speculated.

The squad leader pushed his glasses: "Don't guess, it's better to ask her directly what the situation is over there." School Committee, Zhou Lan, you have Xu Ying's contact information, call her and ask her, if not, then send her a message. ”

"Hmm...... I don't seem to have her contact information. The school committee pushed his glasses in some distress.

Zhou Lan raised her mobile phone at this time: "No need, she has already sent a message in the group." She said she forgot to turn on the alarm clock when she was napping and ended up getting up late, and now her dad is driving her over so let's not worry. ”

Hearing this, everyone else looked at their phones and saw that Xu Ying had already replied to the message in the group, and just like Zhou Lan said, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I just overslept, and I thought something had happened to her on the way." The squad leader shook his head helplessly and took a sip of coffee.

Cui Kairui followed and said: "I'll just say, she overslept in the afternoon and was late." ”

"Since she's fine, let's move on. Kelly, have you memorized all the formulas that you were asked to memorize yesterday? As he spoke, Duan Zilian looked at Cui Kairui.

"Uh...... This ......" Cui Kairui was suddenly speechless in embarrassment.

Seeing his reaction, Duan Zilian knew the answer, and sighed helplessly: "I haven't even memorized a few formulas, your father and I are very tired." So, according to what I said yesterday, you should copy each of these formulas fifty times. ”

"Pity, can you be a little less? Copy each formula fifty times, which is too much. Cui Kairui immediately looked at Duan Zilian with pitiful eyes.

In this regard, Duan Zipian was expressionless: "This is what you promised yourself yesterday, and you can't go back." Also, don't look at me with that kind of look and gaze, you're not a cute girl, you are like this, it makes me a little sick to my stomach. ”

"Cut ......" pleading was useless, Cui Kairui pursed his lips, and could only helplessly open his notebook and start copying formulas.

The others testified that they also hurried to devote their energy to studying.

After more than ten or twenty minutes, Duan Zilian saw Qin Qiaoyun coming out of the back room of the café, still carrying two full garbage bags in his hands.

"Pity, come and help." Qin Qiaoyun put the garbage bag on the ground, gasped, crossed his waist with one hand, and beckoned to Duan Zipian.

Duan Zilian walked over and helped her pick up a garbage bag, not to mention, it was quite heavy, Qin Qiaoyun was carrying two bags of such heavy garbage just now, no wonder she was so tired.

"Aunt Qiao, why is there so much garbage?"

Qin Qiaoyun crossed his waist, breathed a sigh of relief, and replied: "I'm bored, just clean up my house, these things are old, bad, or things that you don't usually use, and they take up space when you put them away, so just throw them all away, if you want to use them in the future, buy new ones." ”

This café is a two-story building, the first floor is used as a storefront, and Qin Qiaoyun lives on the second floor.

"Pity, one bag per person, help me throw the garbage in the trash can outside." After resting, Qin Qiaoyun walked out with a bag of garbage.

Duan Zilian also carried a bag of garbage and hurriedly followed.

Throwing the garbage into the trash can outside the store, Qin Qiaoyun breathed a sigh of relief, while Duan Zilian shook his hand.

Just about to go back to the café to continue studying, suddenly, Duan Zilian noticed that Qin Qiaoyun turned around and looked in a direction in a daze, with sadness and envy written on his face.

Following her gaze, Duan Zilian saw that not far away, there was a pair of parents holding their children's two hands, and a family of three was walking on the street, talking and laughing, looking very warm.

looked at Qin Qiaoyun, who was still looking at the family of three, Duan Zilian estimated that she should have touched the scene.
