Chapter 68: One Man, One Rain, One City
"Then if your book is published in the future, remember to give me a signed edition for collection."
"You still need to ask me."
"Also, in the future, let's buy a big house and get a study room dedicated to your books."
"Same as I thought, but I want the big bookcase, the oversized one on the roof."
"Okay, it's all up to you."
Bai Ye smiled softly, looking at Chen Xiaodi's eyes full of pampering, one day in the future, when the book written by Chen Xiaodi can fill an entire study, it will be time for her dream to really come true.
It's been rainy in recent days, after yesterday's incident, Chen Xiaodi has been depressed, she almost didn't talk to her family this morning, after lunch, she sat at the desk and looked out the window in a daze, and it took a while to come back to her senses.
A day without sun is very suitable for going out, packing up her things, Chen Xiaodi is ready to go out to buy some food, this is what she often does when she is in a bad mood, pick a few things she likes to eat, and then bring a cup of milk tea, and treat them as things that annoy her and slowly eliminate them all, so that the bad mood will disappear with it, at least for her, this method is very useful.
The rain in the morning was very heavy, now it is a little lighter, but there are still not too many people on the street, Chen Xiaodi walked all the way to the artificial lake in front of the gymnasium in the city, there is a street full of computer stores by the lake, there is a stall selling duck necks at the corner of the street, Chen Xiaodi is a frequent visitor here, and every time he comes, he will chat with the boss for a while.
After passing the curved bridge in the lake, Chen Xiaodi stayed on the bridge for a while, the statue of a woman in the lake seemed to be made of white marble was still standing there quietly, the rain fell gently on the lake, splashing layers of ripples overlapping each other, making the sky reflected on the lake a little blurred, revealing a kind of dense beauty.
Chen Xiaodi smiled lightly, took out her mobile phone and took a picture of the rain scene, she is now standing in the middle of the lake, the breeze is blowing softly, the thin rain is gently patting on her face, and the oncoming fresh air, making people feel very comfortable.
After the library, walk another intersection to the stall, but unfortunately there is nothing there today, the wind at the intersection is a little cold, Chen Xiaodi shrunk her neck and left quickly, where to go next, she has not decided for a while.
Walking aimlessly, Chen Xiaodi came to the park not far away, where she and Bai Ye often came, and every time they stayed for an afternoon. Soon arrived at the door of the milk tea shop by the lake, Chen Xiaodi hesitated for a moment but walked in, ordered his favorite milk tea, and sat by the window and drank it slowly.
The park itself is a huge artificial lake, and the main buildings are concentrated on the small piece of land in the middle of the lake, and the rain is heavier at this time, but there are still many pleasure boats on the lake, and they are slowly driving on the lake, not caring about some raging rain, and boating on the lake in such weather is actually a pleasant thing.
"Why did you remember to get there today?"
"I was so bored at home that I wanted to come out and buy something to eat, but I didn't buy it, so I came here after shopping."
"It's been cold these days, do you have any extra clothes?"
"Of course!"
"Really?"
Bai Ye was skeptical of Chen Xiaodi's words, obviously his hands were purple from the cold, but he said that he was not cold, and he said that he was full of food even though he didn't eat well, if he really said that Chen Xiaodi would perfunctory him, then there were only these two things.
"Of course it's true, now it's almost annoying to be nagged by them at home every day, I don't want to become a slug and be nagged by you when I see you."
"Yo, it's rare to see you have such a high level of consciousness."
"That's a classmate surnamed Bai who supervised it well."
Chen Xiaodi said, taking a big sip of the milk tea in front of her, and the chill to her bones immediately spread all over her body, stabbing her head a little painful. The window opened a small crack, and a gust of rain blew in, although Chen Xiaodi was wearing a short coat, he was still shivering.
"I can't be by your side these days, just go out for a walk when you have time, try not to conflict with your uncles and aunts, and save time and quarrel again."
"What, don't you urge me to study?"
"Now even if you force yourself to be inefficient, it's better to adjust for a while, if you don't dislike it, wait for me to come back and study with you, it just so happens that I have a lot of books and don't have time to read."
"You're still good to me."
"Silly girl, you are so precious to me, where am I willing to make you sad."
Bai Ye said, smiling gently, at this time he was sitting by the window of a study room, with a cup of milk tea that Chen Xiaodi usually ordered in front of him, not far from the school, and it was also a place where the two often came when there were no activities on weekends, he would read here, and Chen Xiaodi would write something with a notebook, but he didn't know what he wrote, every time he asked, Chen Xiaodi just quickly hid the book, and then said with a smile: "Keep it secret for the time being." ”
The milk tea in front of her quickly bottomed out, Chen Xiaodi walked all the way along the lake, halfway through the side gate of the park, where there are several pet shops, every time she comes, she will go there to see those cats and dogs, for her, these little ones are like cute angels, warm and healing.
But she didn't stop much that day, just glanced a few times as she passed by, and now it was past three o'clock in the afternoon, and she hadn't bought what she wanted to buy, and she might have to go to many places next.
Continue to walk along the familiar street, this is the way they used to go to and from school in junior high school, a little far from home, and high school is in the exact opposite direction, it seems that they have not been here since graduating from junior high school, and the farthest is the park just now.
In her memory, there were no stalls along the way, most of them were small restaurants, and the only delicious thing Chen Xiaodi remembered was a cake shop opposite the school, where she sold sauce cakes that she thought were the best, and she often bought them when she was in junior high school.
There is a 24-hour restaurant chain on the middle road, and the school spontaneously gives make-up lessons to the top 200 students in the grade after school before the high school entrance examination, and the two will come here to eat together after class and then go home. Just thinking about it, Chen Xiaodi happened to walk to the door of this restaurant, and saw that the roasted wheat that had just come out of the pot was being added to the cabinet, so she walked forward and bought two, and her hands were still hot when she took them.
Turning back to the entrance of the side gate of the park, Chen Xiaodi turned into the snack street opposite, where there are many special snacks, sometimes when you don't want to cook at night, Chen's mother will also take her here to pass the meal. At this time, the snack street is lively, and most of the people who go shopping in the nearby parks will come here to buy a few things to eat, and people come and go, and business has been done.
After turning around half of the city, Chen Xiaodi, who finally returned with a full load, began to walk in the direction of home, the rain was still not too big or small, there was no dense traffic at this point, and the small city seemed to be a lot quieter than usual.
