The two pushed the door and walked into the store, and a faint smell of food and spices quietly penetrated into their noses, attracting mouths.

"It smells so good." Gu Beimo snorted and sat down at a table with Ding Xiu. He called the waiter over and picked up the menu to order.

"Grilled fish, this spicy chicken, lamb chops, and roast leg of lamb. Dude, do you want to add something? Gu Beimo finished ordering his favorite dishes and handed the menu to Ding Xiu.

Ding Xiu didn't accept the menu, but looked in the direction of the other side of the store in a daze. Gu Beimo followed his gaze and saw three customers sitting at the table over there, who were slowly tasting the dishes in front of them.

"Waiter, according to the food ordered at that table, give us the same whole." Gu Beimo closed the menu as he spoke, and poured herbal tea into Ding Xiu's cup.

"Jianing...... Am I dreaming? Ding Xiu's eyes widened, his expression was stunned for a moment, and he suddenly screamed.

At another table, three young men and women were discussing today's game with great interest, and one of the girls was tasting the juice in her cup, when she heard the shout, her body felt like she had been electrocuted, and her heart beat fiercely.

The cup slipped from her hand, but the girl didn't realize it, her eyes were fixed on the direction from which the voice came. There, she saw a familiar face that she thought had been lost.

"Jia Ning? Is it really you?! ”

"Ding Xiu !!"

The two left their seats almost at the same time, leaving behind their stunned companions and running towards each other.

"Is this true? Am I dreaming? Chen Jianing came to Ding Xiu, took his hand, and his eyes turned red in an instant, "I thought it was ...... I thought you weren't there with the camp......"

"Jia Ning!" Ding Xiu's heart was excited, and his eyes were slightly red, "The camp is gone, but I'm still there." ”

Time seemed to stand still, and they looked at each other, both immersed in the joy of reunion after a long absence.

I don't know what to do, and I go deep. Chen Jianing had a lot of things to say to Ding Xiu, and so did Ding Xiu, but at this moment, neither of them could speak.

"Jia Ning, who is this?" Meng Zhixi's voice broke the beautiful silence between the two.

Chen Jianing came back to her senses, quickly adjusted her mood, and introduced to her: "This is Ding Xiu, he is my savior." ”

"Meng Zhixi, Meng Huaiyu, my cousin and cousin." The girl introduced the brother and sister on her side to Ding Xiu.

"Hello, Jia Ning and I are friends, don't dare to be a life-saver." Ding Xiu said hello to the Meng family brothers and sisters.

"Wow, life-saving benefactor, when did it happen, why haven't I heard you say it?" Meng Zhixi looked surprised.

"It's a long story, I'll tell you when I have time." Chen Jianing smiled, excited in her heart.

"Ding Xiu, is she the Chen Jianing you are looking for?" Gu Beimo was surprised and delighted, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's really worth the thousands of kilometers we ran in Brilliant City." ”

"Jia Ning, this is Lao Gu, Gu Beimo, the companion I met when I was in the camp." Ding Xiu introduced Gu Beimo to everyone again.

When everyone got to know each other, the waiter came up with the dishes, and at Chen Jianing's suggestion, the two tables came together, and everyone chatted while eating.

"You're from the west?" Knowing Ding Xiu's situation, the Meng family brothers and sisters were very surprised, "No wonder the appearance of the dusty people is really hard." ”

"We went to the gate of Brilliant Academy to find someone to inquire, and we were almost arrested by the security guards as bad guys." Ding Xiu laughed and said, "Fortunately, Lao Gu reacted quickly, so we quickly slipped away." ”

"Ding Xiu." Chen Jia stared at him, feeling sad and joyful, "You must have suffered a lot along the way." ”

"If I can find you, no matter how much suffering I endure, it's worth it." Ding Xiu said: "Not long after you left, the camp was attacked by a colony of mutant bullet ants, and Ensign Zhang, Uncle Chen, and other brothers were all ...... Lao Gu and I escaped death, and then decided to come to Brilliant City to find you. ”

"Some of the fighters and civilians in the camp escaped, and I saw the list of survivors at my grandfather's." Chen Jianing saw that Ding Xiu's expression was very heavy when he mentioned the robes in the army, so he comforted him and said, "Don't worry, grandpa has already explained, and there are special people who will settle them." ”

"Then I'll be relieved." Ding Xiu nodded, "Jia Ning, do you remember the names of those survivors?" ”

"It's been too long to remember." Chen Jianing thought about it, but still didn't recall the names on the list. At that time, she was only concerned about checking the list to see if there was any Ding Xiu, and she didn't pay attention to the others at all.

"It's a blessing to have some people who survived." Meng Huaiyu took over and said, "Do the two of you have any other relatives and friends in Brilliant City?" ”

Ding Xiu shook his head, "I have spent nineteen years of my life in a military camp in the desert, and almost everyone I know is in the camp. But the camp has been destroyed, and everyone is gone. ”

"If you don't have a place to stay here, you can just stay at my house." Chen Jianing said: "Didn't you say that you really wanted to meet my grandfather? That's right, that's it. ”

"Is that good?" Ding Xiu hesitated, "We still have two companions and a ......"

"Aren't they here?" Chen Jianing looked around.

"They didn't come together, they stayed outside the city and waited for our news." Ding Xiu said: "I encountered some troublesome things. ”

"Well, that's it, you still live in my house, and if you have any trouble, tell my grandfather, and he will help solve it." Chen Jianing thought about it and didn't ask Ding Xiu further, because now that everyone was eating out, some things might not be suitable for discussion here.

"Okay." Ding Xiu responded.

Chen Jianing turned her head again and said to Meng Huaiyu and Meng Zhixi: "Cousin Huaiyu, cousin Zhixi, I will go back to the academy to ask the professor for leave, and then take Ding Xiu and Lao Gu to the house." ”

"Okay." Meng Huaiyu nodded, the top priority really needs to settle the friends who came from afar first.

He and his sister Meng Zhixi usually live in the school, and they will go to Chen Jianing's house to live in on holidays, and the two are not surprised that Chen Jianing is going to let Ding Xiu and Gu Beimo live at home, on the contrary, they also feel that this arrangement is more convenient to move around and get close.

Everyone chatted while eating this meal, and they ate very happily, and when they checked out, Chen Jianing found that Meng Huaiyu had quietly gone to buy the order.

"Let your cousin break the bank." Chen Jianing said with a smile.

"I should have had a treat today, and I said that I would have won the game and come out to celebrate." Meng Huaiyu waved his hand, disapproving.

When everyone got out of the hotel, Chen Jianing and the Meng family brothers and sisters went back to the college to ask for leave first, while Ding Xiu and Gu Beimo stayed by the car on the side of the road and waited for her.

"It's really hard to find a place to step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it." Gu Beimo saw Ding Xiu looking at the girl's distant back, and suddenly said, "I didn't expect things to go so smoothly." ”

"Things that may not go well are all called our halfway experience, which is called bitter first and then sweet." Ding Xiu turned his head and smiled, "Seriously, I'm suddenly a little nervous now, and I'm looking forward to meeting Jia Ning's family." ”

"You're waiting for a result, right?" Gu Beimo asked.

Ding Xiu nodded.

The two did not continue to talk about this topic, but sorted out the things in the car to see if there was anything that could be used as a meeting gift for Chen Jianing's family.

The weapons and ammunition in the car had already been transferred to another car before entering the city, and Song Xijun and Shen You were taking care of it outside the city, and some of the remaining things were materials harvested along the way. Ding Xiu and Gu Beimo searched for a while, and found that they were not suitable.

"I'll ask Jia Ning later, see what her family likes, and buy it in advance when I go to her house." Ding Xiu thought for a while, and then said: "We also have to change our clothes, the security guards in the academy were suspicious when they saw this appearance before......"

"Then we will buy clothes together while we are shopping." Gu Beimo also felt that his outfit looked a little shabby in this big city, and he agreed with Ding Xiu's plan.

The two were discussing, and Chen Jianing had already returned in the car.

Her car was a red sedan and looked very upscale.

"Let's get in my car." Chen Jianing beckoned to Ding Xiu and Gu Beimo, she didn't know that the two of them also drove over, thinking that they were just waiting for them on the side of the road outside the restaurant.

"Is our car parked here?" Ding Xiu asked.

"Ah, you guys drove the car too?!" Chen Jia was stunned for a moment.

"It's okay, then Ding Xiu, you can take Jianing's car, and I'll drive our car." Gu Beimo patted Ding Xiu from behind, and then gave him another look.

"Ding Xiu, come here." Chen Jianing shouted at him with a smile.

"This kid reacts so perverted when he fights, how can this situation be as dull as a quail." Gu Beimo waited for Ding Xiu to sit in Chen Jianing's car, smiled, and muttered quietly.

Chen Jianing's car is very high-end, and the interior is very luxurious, or very technological.

Ding Xiu is a veteran of driving, but sitting in her car, she has no idea about the screen and many buttons inside.

"Akemi-san, let's go home." Chen Jianing pressed the round button in the middle of the steering wheel and shouted softly.

"Yes, my master." A gentle girl suddenly appeared in the car and responded to her.

"Akemi-san?" Ding Xiu, just like Grandma Lin entering the Grand View Garden, was very surprised by this novel scene.

"The car is equipped with an AI system, which is artificial intelligence, and I named it Akemi." Chen Jianing smiled sweetly: "How about this name?" ”

"Not bad...... Much like a girl. Ding Xian was shocked because he saw that the car had driven to the road, but Chen Jianing's hand was not holding the steering wheel, and her eyes were not looking at the road.

"What do you mean by being a girl." Ding Xiu's words amused Chen Jianing, the girl covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Mingmei, do you want to invite Ding Xiu to drink something?" ”

"Then I have to ask Ding Xiu what he wants to drink? I only have juice here, but there are so many flavors. The AI called Akemi-san asked Ding Xiu, and the beautiful girl who appeared on the car screen even winked mischievously.

"Is she alive?" Ding Xiu's tone was a little stammered because he was surprised.
