Chapter 78: A Thousand Miles to Meet
Hua Tao has been asked out by Qin Ke recently.
"Instead of spending time acting with me, you might as well find a girl you like seriously."
The two sat in the cold drink shop and shared the large plate of ice in front of them.
The air conditioner in the store turned on violently, and Hua Tao shivered comfortably when she took a bite of ice.
Qin Ke glanced at her with a spoon in his mouth, and hooked her calf with his foot under the table: "Then I will associate with you, you don't charge me for your service." ”
Hua Tao kicked his foot back: "I have a boyfriend." ”
Qin Ke smiled disappreciatively: "Dump him, can he be as handsome as me?" ”
"It's really handsome than you." Hua Tao replied without hesitation.
Qin Ke didn't believe it at all: "If you want to show me his photos, you can't show them out, how can you be so handsome that you don't even have a photo?" As he spoke, his expression suddenly changed, he pushed away the plate of ice, threw himself on the table, and said in a low voice, "When I was in college, a buddy in the next class told me that there was a dick in his dormitory who called his girlfriend on the dormitory landline in the middle of the night, and they felt annoyed, so they cut the phone line, but the person continued to talk to his girlfriend on the phone that night. ”
Hua Tao: "......"
Qin Ke spread back on the chair in a large font, raised his head and laughed: "You can't be like that dick, you have a fantasy boyfriend, right?" ”
Hua Tao wanted to pretend that she didn't know him.
Qin Ke is still dressed very "non-mainstream" today, plus he looks like a hanger, he doesn't sit down, one leg is shaking under the table, and now he is smiling like this, and the audience is suddenly watching.
Hua Tao threw the spoon, stood up and said, "Check out." ”
Qin Ke leaned on the table, picked up the spoon and poked the remaining ice, raised his eyes to look at her and said, "I haven't finished eating yet, what a waste." ”
"Then you can eat, I think it's a little cold." Hua Tao touched her arm and sat back down.
"By the way, which temple in Cloud City is more effective?" Qin Ke wore a string of super exaggerated bracelets on his wrists, and every time he scooped up the ice, the bracelets would touch the plate, making a "ding" collision sound.
Hua Tao didn't have much research on this, and said casually: "There is a Guanyin temple near here, do you want to try it?" ”
"Try it, ask God to have more of his own gods, it's better to worship than not to worship, I've been unlucky recently, and I'm going to be unlucky." Qin Ke ate up all the Mianmian Ice in two or three clicks, eating it too fast, it was too cold, and grabbed Hua Tao's hand, "Lend me." Without waiting for the other party to agree, he directly put it on his lips.
Before Hua Tao could react, she felt the back of her hand be kissed by him.
It's a cold kiss.
"Hey!" Hua Tao hurriedly pulled her hand back, using too much force, almost missing his face.
"Why are you so stingy, just let me warm your lips." Qin Ke pursed his lips and took out his wallet from his trouser pocket to settle the bill.
Hua Tao wiped the back of the kissed hand with her other hand, and inexplicably felt a little guilty, not to Qin Ke, but to Xia Sheng.
His flower pig was accidentally slighted by the disciples.
Qin Ke didn't know her careful thinking at all, stretched out his long arms, hooked her shoulders and walked out of the cold drink shop: "I spent money to rent you to be my girlfriend, isn't it not that you can't touch it?" ”
Hua Tao originally wanted to push him away, but when she heard him remind her, she remembered that she was not getting together with her friends now, but "going to work".
"Why do you think you have to waste this kind of money, can't you ask me out as a friend?"
Qin Ke leaned into her ear and smiled: "Asking you out as a friend, can you let me hug me like this?" ”
Hua Tao: "...... what do you want?!"
Qin Ke turned his head to look at her and laughed: "What kind of expression are you, shouldn't you be happy if I really chase you, you had a crush on me when you were a child, right?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Hua Tao flatly denied it.
It's all gone, and it's really pointless to talk about it now.
Qin Ke glanced at her again, with a smile hidden in his eyes, and didn't speak again after all.
It was too hot for both of them to walk, so they stopped a taxi on the side of the road.
Hua Tao reflected on her attitude just now, as if it was a little too much, in order to ease the atmosphere between each other, she took the initiative to speak: "What bad luck have you encountered recently?" ”
Qin Ke wanted to sigh when he mentioned this, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and leaned his head back on the back of the chair: "I have been unlucky since I returned to China, I don't know if I just came back, and I am not used to the water and soil." On the first day I got home, my parents' dog was lost, and I haven't found it yet. They don't have to take care of the dogs, and they start urging me to have a girlfriend, get married and have children, and arrange blind dates for me......"
Hua Tao couldn't help but interject: "I don't think there is any causal relationship between the dog getting lost and them urging you to get married." ”
Qin Ke turned his head to look at her, and continued to sigh: "Family affairs are already annoying enough, and work is not going well. We recently cooperated with a magazine, I went to be their cover model, and said that I would ask Stephen Chen to take pictures, but I don't know why I temporarily changed to another photographer, the level is much worse, and the effect of the shooting is greatly reduced, I am angry! ”
Hua Tao asked a little puzzled: "That's the cover of the magazine, they should pay more attention to effect and quality than you, right?" ”
Qin Ke said helplessly: "This is the difference between a layman and an insider, their person in charge thinks that the photo is fine." ”
"Could it be that it's really okay?" The peach is weak and authentic.
Qin Ke was furious: "Which side are you on?" On my side or on the side of the unscrupulous profiteers? ”
"......" Hua Tao had no choice but to comfort: "Anyway, no matter what the shooting looks like, the money given to you is still the same, right?" ”
Qin Ke let out a depressed "ah", spread his limbs, and made a dying struggle: "It's really tiring to chat with you laymen, isn't it great to give money, what about professionalism?" What about aesthetic taste? Money can't buy it! ”
Hua Tao: "......"
Hua Tao admitted that interlacing was like a mountain, so she decisively changed the topic: "What breed is your dog?" ”
Qin Ke pondered for a long time, and finally said uncertainly: "Chinese Pastoral Dog...... Right? Looks silly anyway. ”
Hua Tao's heart moved, took out her mobile phone and swiped it a few times, called up the selfie she took with Xizhilang a few days ago, and then handed it to Qin Ke: "Look at it." ”
Qin Ke let out a "huh", snatched the phone, stared at the screen for ten seconds, and then turned his head and smiled cautiously: "Your boyfriend is quite handsome." ”
Hua Tao picked up the bag next to her with one hand and smashed it over.
"Oh, it's not a boyfriend, I said it earlier." Qin Ke hurriedly dodged.
"Just look at it, right?" Hua Tao reached out and twisted it on his thigh.
"Whew!" Qin Ke screamed, rolled his eyes and fell back, pretending to be dead.
Hua Tao smiled and pushed him: "You should see if this dog is the one that was lost in your family, because it was lost and then picked up by my friend." ”
Qin Ke immediately came back to life, picked up his phone again and took a closer look, but in the end he couldn't be sure.
"Well, send me this picture and let me take it back to my parents."
"That's fine. Then I will forward the lost and found information to you, if you are sure that this dog belongs to your family, contact this girl, her surname is Gu. ”
Hua Tao added his WeChat, and then shared the photo with him along with the lost and found notice.
After sharing, she remembered that she had a solo photo of Xizhilang in her photo album.
"Why don't you delete the one you just now, and then I'll send you a new solo photo of the dog?" The second elder of the Qin family has a bad impression of her, if Xi Zhilang is really their family's lost dog, the second elder doesn't know how he will feel when he sees this group photo.
The baby son was hooked up by a bad woman, and now even the baby dog has fallen into the hands of a bad woman.
It's really a bad thing.
Hua Tao was instantly amused by her own brain supplement.
"What are you laughing at?" Qin Ke suddenly laughed after asking.
Hua Tao asked him rhetorically, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"I laugh at you, you were often like this when you were a child, you always loved to be in a daze, and you always loved to be nervous and suddenly happy." Qin Ke took out his mobile phone to log in to WeChat, clicked on the photo that Hua Tao had just sent him, and his eyes softened, "You haven't changed at all...... No, it's pretty. ”
Hua Tao was quite angry when she heard him say the first half of the sentence, but when she heard the back, she suddenly felt a little flustered. Especially when the other party praised her for becoming beautiful in an admiring tone, she even felt that her cheeks were a little hot.
……
Xia Sheng has been going out early and returning late recently, and Xia Hanming finally couldn't help but warn him: "The doctor told you to recuperate, don't give me a whole day and run away." ”
Xia Sheng smiled and patted Xia Hanming's shoulder: "I have measure, you don't have to worry." ”
"What do you mean, are you a doctor?" Xia Hanming had a straight face and said aggressively, "Now that I am a doctor, I said that you are not allowed to run around, you can only listen, not refute." ”
Gu Jiaqi pretended to watch the TV show intently, but he didn't hear anything, he didn't see anything.
Xia Sheng smiled helplessly: "Alas, why are you so worried, it's easy to grow gray hair." ”
Xia Hanming walked back to the room angrily: "You think too much, I'm just having an occupational disease, forget it, you can do whatever you like." ”
Gu Jiaqi heard the sound of "bang" closing the door, so he turned around and glanced at the bedroom with the door closed.
"Do you think your Brother Han Ming is quite awkward?" Xia Sheng sat down beside Gu Jiaqi and teased her.
Gu Jiaqi blinked, laughed, nodded lightly, and whispered, "It's quite awkward." After finishing speaking, he was afraid that Xia Hanming would hear it, so he turned his head and glanced at his bedroom again.
Xia Sheng said: "No need to look at it, the sound insulation in our room is very good, and you can do anything behind closed doors." ”
Ahh
Gu Jiaqi said happily: "Then if I can't sleep in the middle of the night and want to listen to the song, I can open it out." I was worried that I would make a noise to you, so I always used headphones. ”
Xia Sheng looked at Gu Jiaqi, and couldn't help but raise his hand and touch her head: "You are really a pure and good boy." ”
Gu Jiaqi suddenly showed a question mark on his face.
"Ah, by the way, Brother Xia Sheng, the owner of Xizhilang contacted me just now."
Xia Sheng was taken aback: "Really? Confirmed? ”
Gu Jiaqi nodded excitedly: "It's confirmed, he can even tell the characteristics of Xizhilang's hind leg with a scar." ”
Xia Sheng was not as excited as her, but a little stunned: "Oh, then return it to others." ”
"But I've got to work tomorrow." Gu Jiaqi was embarrassed and said, "Brother Han Ming said that there is an important meeting tomorrow, and no one can be absent, so I can't ask for leave." ”
Xia Sheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then make an appointment another day." ”
"But the old man misses the dog very much, after all, he has been lost for many days, and they originally wanted to come and take the dog away tonight, but I saw that you haven't come back yet, so I put it back until tomorrow."
Xia Shengqi asked: "What does this have to do with whether I come back or not?" ”
Gu Jiaqi showed a soft smile: "Brother Xia Sheng likes Xizhilang very much, if you come home and find that it is gone, you will definitely be sad." ”
Xia Sheng's heart warmed, and he stretched out his arms and gave her a hug.
This sister is so sweet.
Gu Jiaqi was stunned for a moment, and then his face flushed.
After Xia Sheng expressed his gratitude, he let go of his arms and rubbed her head again: "I'm free tomorrow, I'll return the dog." Where do you deliver the goods...... No, hand over the dog. ”
"Isn't there a bus stop near our house, right there, at half past nine in the morning." Gu Jiaqi paused, and then said, "The owner who heard the voice is an elderly uncle, I'll give you his mobile phone number." ”
After Xia Sheng remembered the number, he went to the courtyard to see Xizhilang.
Mrs. Xia has a little allergic rhinitis and doesn't like hairy animals, so Xi Zhilang was tied to the yard.
Xia Sheng likes pets very much, but he has never dared to raise them.
Because no matter how carefully cared for, the life cycle of pets is still shorter than that of humans, and life and death are too heavy for him to bear.
So simply don't raise.
It was an accident that fulfilled his wish to have a pet when he was a child.
It's just that I didn't expect the time we spent together to be so short.
Xia Sheng was reluctant to be happy in his heart, and stroked it for a long time in the night. I can't sleep at night, and as soon as I close my eyes, I see the scene of Xizhilang being taken away by the master, and I finally stayed up until dawn, and I was physically and mentally exhausted.
No matter how reluctant you are, you have to separate.
There is always a time to gather and disperse.
Got to the station on time, just past a bus, and there were very few people on the platform.
Xia Sheng squinted his eyes and searched among those people, but did not find any old people inside.
So he dialed the number directly.
"Hello?" The other party's voice was unexpectedly young and energetic.
Xia Sheng hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you the one who lost the dog at home?" ”
"Yes, where are you...... Oh, I see you, you turn around. The person on the other end of the line laughed.
Xia Sheng hurriedly turned his head and saw a young man running towards him.
The man was tall and strangely dressed, but he was very handsome.
“…… Owner? Xia Sheng looked him up and down.
The young man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled brightly: "Abbot, I have a fate to meet thousands of miles away." ”
