Chapter 162: Rain in the Provincial City

It's June in a blink of an eye, and the translation certificate exam that Chen Xiaodi reported before is also coming, and she bought the preparation materials when she was still in school, but she hasn't opened it much, and it's almost still new. Now that there is only half a month before the exam, Chen Xiaodi temporarily put away the book for the postgraduate entrance examination, and the study time is spent practicing the topics of the translation exam.

But after all, these exams are not as easy as the final exams in school, and they require a lot of practice to summarize the methods and experience of doing the questions, although Chen Xiaodi thinks that she will probably not be able to pass after two years of real questions, but she still wants to give it a try, at least to experience the feeling of the examination room, not only to pave the way for her to take this exam next time, but also to warm up for her postgraduate examination at the end of the year, after all, she has been away from school for too long, and she has almost forgotten what the exam feels like.

The day before the exam, Chen's mother and Chen Xiaodi came to the provincial capital, and after taking the bus for a long time, they finally came to the front of the test center, which was not too far from the community hospital where the Chinese medicine doctor they often came to, but it was the farthest place in the provincial capital they had been to together.

It was more than four o'clock in the afternoon when I got off the bus, and the test center was a branch campus of a university, but because it happened to be the fourth and sixth grade exams today, I was not allowed to enter for the time being, so the mother and daughter followed the map to find the hotel they had booked before. There are very few hotels near this school, and it is even more difficult to find a suitable price, so Chen Xiaodi chose an apartment hotel after looking at it for a long time.

The location of the hotel is a little difficult to find, and when the mother and daughter arrived at the door of the building with a signboard, they saw that the door was closed, which made them think for a while that they had booked a hotel that was no longer open. In desperation, Chen Xiaodi had to dial the hotel contact number displayed in the application software, and then finally came to the hotel under the guidance of the front desk staff.

At this time, a family of three happened to take the elevator upstairs with them, and while waiting for check-in, my mother chatted with the mother, only to learn that their daughter was also here to take the translation certificate exam.

After putting away the things, the mother and daughter set off to see the examination room, the school is not big, but it is very beautiful, there are rectangular ponds on both sides of the main road facing the gate, Chen Xiaodi stayed by the pond in front of the building for a while after reading the examination room, the sky after the rain hung a round of some blazing sun, but the dark clouds not far away indicate that there will be a heavy rain soon.

Since June, it has rained intermittently in most places in the province, and it has been raining on the way of the mother and daughter by train, and they only stopped for a while when they left the station. Mother and daughter walked along the path by the pond to the other side of the school, where, according to the family, there was another door.

Walking slowly on campus, Chen Xiaodi remembered last May, when she finally finished her dissertation problem, and only needed to wait for the defense, the rain that began to fall in late April made the whole city wet, and the dormitory area at the bottom of the mountain where only senior students lived became very quiet, except for the students who went out for internships, most of the others stayed in the dormitory.

Chen Xiaodi couldn't stay in the dormitory for a few days, and saw that the head of the dormitory was like other roommates nestled in the quilt and playing with her mobile phone, so she didn't call her, and went out alone with a small bag, and walked around every corner of the school with an umbrella. Although it is not difficult to go back to school in the future, she doesn't know when she will come back after leaving this time, so she still took pictures of those corners little by little, and they are still stored in her photo album in the space.

After quickly settling dinner in the snack street outside the back door of the school, the mother and daughter walked briskly to the hotel, the dark clouds had reached overhead, and the heavy rain was about to fall.

On the other side, Bai Ye was absentmindedly thinking about something while eating, and his eyes kept paying attention to the mobile phone in his hand.

"Xiaoye, what do you want? I've been staring at my phone since I entered the door, waiting for whose news? ”

Daddy Bai said, and put a golden chicken leg in the white leaf bowl.

"Dad, I just ...... I seem to have seen my aunt and Xiaodi......"

"No, I didn't hear they were coming up, where did you see that?"

"At the bus stop outside the train station, I just got off the bus and saw them get on the bus in front."

"There are so many people at the train station, you probably read it wrong."

"Probably not, if it was just Auntie, I might admit my mistake, but I would never admit my mistake!"

Bai Ye said very surely, but Bai Dad laughed all of a sudden, which made him suddenly feel a little embarrassed, and quickly buried his head and nibbled on the big chicken leg.

"I think you're thinking about that girl, right?"

"Dad, I mean it!"

Although his father did say what he thought in his heart, he also firmly believed that he was absolutely not mistaken, not to mention that the clothes that the girl was wearing were almost exactly the same as the ones Chen Xiaodi often wore.

You can't go wrong!

The message sent to Chen Xiaodi did not receive a reply for a long time, and when she asked her mother, she only said that the mother and daughter were not at home, but she didn't ask where they went. At this moment, Chen's mother's reply came over, and she and Chen Xiaodi did come to the provincial capital.

"Dad! You see! I'll just say I'm not mistaken! ”

Bai Ye excitedly handed the phone to his father, and the whole person almost bounced up from the chair.

"Then why didn't they contact us when they came up? At that point, they shouldn't go back until today, so where will they stay at night if they don't come here? ”

"I'll ask."

Bai Ye quickly dialed Chen's mother's phone, and it was connected after just two rings.

"Xiao Ye, how did you know we were here?"

"I saw you at the bus stop in front of the train station in the afternoon."

"No wonder."

"Auntie, why don't you tell me when you come up, I'll pick you up."

"I just came to do something, and I will go back the day after tomorrow, so I didn't tell you."

"And where are you now?"

"At the hotel."

"It costs money to stay in a hotel, why don't you come to live at home?"

"It's a little farther away, it's about an hour and a half to get from you to us, and I can't catch it."

"In this case, then you can come to the house tomorrow when you are done, and let's have a meal together."

"It may not work this time, a friend of mine who I haven't seen for a long time will be with us tomorrow, and we may have a meal together when we're done, so let's wait for next time."

"Alright then......"

Being in the same city, Bai Ye thought that he could finally see Chen Xiaodi, who was almost lost, but he didn't expect that he could only look at the starless night sky and think about it from afar.

"That...... Auntie, can you let Xiaodi answer the phone? ”

"Okay, you wait a minute."

Hearing this, Bai Ye's heart suddenly became nervous, except for the news that Xiaobai had sent back to him on the day Xiao Bai left, he really hadn't contacted her for a long time.
