Chapter 20: A Dinner for Four

Xiao Qiong suddenly woke up from the nightmare, he sat up from the chair all of a sudden, raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He closed his eyes and calmed his breathing, then got up and picked up a nightgown and walked into the bathroom, where the sound of rushing water could be heard after a while.

He didn't turn on the light, and the whole room was pitch black, except for a desk lamp that emitted a faint light on the desk in the study.

The dim light shone on a small card on the table, casting its dark shadow to the side.

The card seemed to be a little old, but it was well preserved by its owner with a protective film, and it was still as good as new.

Autumn is a windy season, and the already empty windows are blown open by gusts of autumn wind.

The cool breeze sneaked into the room through the crack in the window, blowing the books on the desk, making a gurgling sound.

At the same time, he blew the little card.

The card was flipped at an angle, and the card, which was shivering in the autumn wind, was completely exposed to the air.

There seemed to be two words written on the card, in bold font, neatly drawn one by one, and there was an imprint on the watercolor print that had not been dried at the time.

That seems to be a person's name.

If you look closer, you can see a row of small letters printed on the card with that name.

The first class of the third grade of Boyuan Primary School.

Tao peach.

"Hurry up, little peach, it's time for us to go!"

Early in the morning, Meng Yuqian's high-pitched voice sounded in the 601 dormitory.

At this time, Tao Tao was squatting in the toilet with a painful face and shivering.

The exam is coming up tomorrow, and I agreed with my senior sister that I would invite her to dinner the day before the exam.

It had been planned for a long time, but on this day, Tao Tao fell off the chain.

Meng Yuqian hugged her arms outside the toilet door, intending to sharpen her knife.

And Tao Tao squatted in the toilet holding her stomach and almost died on the spot.

"It's all your fault! Yesterday I had to eat ice cream after eating hot pot. ”

Tao Tao felt the pain in her stomach and burst into tears.

She now regrets why she didn't resist the temptation to eat that sweet ice cream last night.

Tao Tao now feels like she is being choked by fate, and then she is covered by life again.

"Oh, poor little peach, I didn't expect your stomach to be so fragile."

Although Meng Yuqian expressed her sympathy for Tao Tao now, she didn't do it in her hands.

Meng Yuqian stood at the door of the toilet and was eager to try, planning to rush in and pull Tao Tao out at once.

"Peach baby, we made an appointment with the senior sister today, the senior sister helped us so much, how can we release the senior sister's pigeons."

Meng Yuqian persuaded the people in the toilet bitterly, and then gently put her hand on the doorknob.

Tao Tao looked at the doorknob in front of him and suddenly shook slightly, and he was frightened.

"Don't don't, Qianqian, I'll go out, I'll go out, don't do it!"

Tao Tao quickly packed himself up at the speed of light, and then rushed out.

"Oh, my poor little peach, keep insisting, you can do it, come back and invite you to eat something delicious."

Meng Yuqian looked at the well-behaved Tao Tao who suddenly appeared in front of her, patted her shoulder happily with a grin, and touched Tao Tao's head with a good touch.

However, Tao Tao was already sad at this time and couldn't think independently.

After this incident, Tao Tao swore that she would never eat ice cream again.

Tao Tao was helped into the taxi by Meng Yuqian, and Meng Yuqian hugged Tao Tao's shoulders tightly all the way, for fear that she would run away if she was not careful.

The driver uncle in front looked at the two little girls who looked like conjoined babies with a magical expression, and then smiled kindly.

Hey, this little girl now, the relationship is really good.

And whether their relationship is good or not now, only they know.

Tao Tao was strangled as if she was about to suffocate, and after rolling her eyes, she closed her eyes, planning to take advantage of the current internal conditioning of her body.

And Meng Yuqian looked at Tao Tao who closed her eyes, touched her hand with relief, and thought that the child was really becoming more and more sensible.

So, in this extremely embarrassing atmosphere, the two of them arrived at the hotel agreed with the senior sister.

As soon as the two of them got out of the car, they saw Senior Sister Xiao Lan standing at the door of the hotel waiting for them.

Tao Tao was pulled out of the car by Meng Yuqian, and as soon as Xiao Lan saw that it was them, she immediately walked in front of them with a smile.

"You're here."

"Mmmm, senior sister, have you waited for a long time?"

Meng Yuqian excitedly hugged Tao Tao and Xiao Lan left and right, and walked towards the hotel with them while chatting with Xiao Lan.

"I've just arrived, too."

Xiao Lan still smiled softly, then turned her head to look at them.

"Huh? Little Peach, are you uncomfortable, why are you so pale. ”

Xiao Lan immediately noticed Tao Tao's pale face, and then quickly asked with concern.

"Ah, I'm okay senior sister, it's just that the things I ate yesterday were too miscellaneous, and my stomach hurts a little."

Tao Tao looked at the senior sister and said.

She wouldn't say that she was cheated by Meng Yuqian because she was greedy......

Tao Tao looked at Meng Yuqian while thinking, and happened to see her malicious face

Meng Yuqian smiled and winked at Tao Tao, showing the live version of facial cramps.

This idiot.

Tao Tao glared at her, then rolled her eyes.

The three of them walked in with a smile and a smile.

Meng Yuqian booked a private room here the day before, so she was quickly brought in by the waiter.

Tao Tao and Meng Yuqian asked Xiao Lan to order, Xiao Lan smiled and did not refuse, and then asked Tao Tao their preferences, and ordered a few dishes according to their tastes.

Tao Tao silently sighed in her heart, Senior Sister is really caring.

The food soon came up, and the three girls were chatting happily while eating.

After Tao Tao ate a few bites, he found that he was not so uncomfortable.

Can I get some more out of here......

Tao Tao felt that he must have starved to death in his previous life.

After eating for a while, Xiao Lan's mobile phone suddenly rang.

Xiao Lan glanced down, did not shy away from Tao Tao and Meng Yuqian, picked up the phone and picked it up.

"Hello? Elder brother. ”

Huh? Is it Xiao Qiong?

It took Tao Tao several days to recover from the shock after that day, she never thought that Xiao Qiong and Xiao Lan would be brother and sister.

However, Meng Yuqian was full of disdain for this.

"Are you stupid? Xiao Qiong Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan Xiao Qiong, even if you think about it with your toes, you will think that they are brothers and sisters, right? ”

According to Meng Yuqian's original words, Tao Tao is a fool.

But Tao Tao is actually quite happy, of course, not because she was regarded as a fool by Meng Yuqian, but because she felt that this fact was very close to her.

Fortunately, my beautiful, cute, gentle and considerate senior sister Xiao Lan is not the girlfriend of that hateful guy.

Tao Tao thought so at that moment.

"yes, I'm outside."

Xiao Lan was talking to Xiao Qiong with her mobile phone at this time.

"I'm eating."

"Huh? With whom? ”

"It's with Little Peach."

Forehead......

Tao Tao trembled inexplicably when he heard this.

Suddenly, she felt as if Senior Sister Xiao Lan had glanced at her with her spare eyes.

Nani?

"Well, you're coming to me?"

Just when Tao Tao hadn't recovered yet, her heart was trembling by Xiao Lan for the second time.

That's ...... You don't have to, right?

Tao Tao wanted to cry without tears.

"Well, well, then you can do it."

After Xiao Lan finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

At the same time, it also cut off Tao Tao's hope.

Tao Tao and Xiao Qiong haven't seen each other since the last time they experienced an embarrassing incident in the library.

Tao Tao thought to himself that he could finally stop for a few days, why did the big demon king appear again.

Thinking of this, she sighed imperceptibly.

"That...... My brother said he was coming to me in a while, don't you mind? ”

Xiao Lan looked at Tao Tao and Meng Yuqian, and said cautiously.

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, since Teacher Xiao is coming, let's order a few more dishes and eat together then."

Before Tao Tao could speak, Meng Yuqian, who was sitting next to her, kept turning her head like garlic, and then looked at Xiao Lan with a smirk, and made a gesture to go out and ask the waiter to add vegetables as she spoke.

Tao Tao looked at Meng Yuqian, who was inexplicably excited, speechlessly.

This little girl......

Xiao Lan looked at Meng Yuqian and smiled when she heard it, but Tao Tao felt that her smile was mixed with seven points of hesitation and three points of caution.

Huh? What's wrong?

Tao Tao looked at Xiao Lan with a puzzled expression.

As a result, he immediately met Xiao Lan's gaze.

Forehead......

"That...... Little Peach, you ...... Do you think it's okay? ”

Xiao Lan's fingers under the table were nervously entangled, and then she straightened up and looked at Tao Tao's eyes sincerely.

Tao Tao was trembling by Xiao Lan's gaze, and then hurriedly said: "Of course it's okay, Senior Sister, Teacher Xiao is not only our teacher, but also Senior Sister's brother, they are all acquaintances, don't be so outside, hahaha."

Tao Tao looked at Xiao Lan and felt that her sincere and cautious appearance was inexplicably distressing, so she also said to Xiao Lan sincerely.

Xiao Lan immediately laughed and lost her eyes when she heard it.

……

"Hahaha, that's great, then we'll order a few more dishes, and then let your Teacher Xiao treat you later."

Xiao Lan happily left this sentence, and then quickly called Meng Yuqian, and the two of them jumped up and down to order.

Tao Tao looked at Xiao Lan, whose attitude had changed 180 degrees in front of her, and was speechless.

Tao Tao thought, was Xiao Lan ordering food or me just now?

Ay.

Tao Tao sighed imperceptibly again.

She suddenly felt that her stomach, which had just gotten better, began to hurt again.

She covered her stomach and pouted, sat on a chair and waited for Xiao Lan and Meng Yuqian to order food back.

Just then, she heard the door open behind her.

Huh? Is it so fast?

Tao Tao turned back suspiciously, thinking that Xiao Lan and the others had come back from ordering, but when she looked back, she saw Xiao Qiong standing behind her.

Huh? Is it so fast???

This time, Tao Tao looked at Xiao Qiong with a more puzzled gaze than just now.

Has he been squatting around here all the time? How did it come faster than the two who went out to order.

Tao Tao felt that her stomach hurt even more.
