CHAPTER XXXII

Ji Xinghe felt that he had slept for a long time, and when he opened his eyes, he found that the environment was dark.

He didn't know where he was, and his last memory was Shen Qingmeng helping him walk on the road. He wasn't even sure if this memory was a scene from a dream.

The bed underneath was soft, with a hint of mint scent, and the air conditioning was at the right temperature, apparently a bedroom.

Ji Xinghe groped to get up. The room was really dark, there was not a trace of light, and there was no other way but to grope around.

Touch the head of the bed first, there is usually a light on the bedside table. Sure enough, after touching the thick stack of books, Ji Xinghe finally found the button of the bedside lamp.

Suddenly the room was filled with light.

After adapting to it for a while, Ji Xinghe looked at the surrounding environment. The bedrooms are simply furnished but very comfortable.

The curtains with excellent blackout properties block out the outside light, and there is a projection screen on the wall facing the bed, which seems to be the owner's use for leaning against the head of the bed to watch the movie.

The head of the bed rests on large, soft cushions, and the dark gray carpet is laid on the side of the bed, which extends to the edge of the bedside table. On the bedside table were the books he had just touched, most of which were in English, and Ji Xinghe vaguely recognized them as programming-related.

It seems that this is Shen Qingmeng's room. It should have been that he drank too much, and Shen Qingmeng took him home.

Ji Xinghe turned over and got out of bed, walked out of the door, and it was actually the bedroom on the second floor. When he didn't know what was going on, how did Shen Qingmeng get him to the second floor?

Standing by the railing, looking down from upstairs, Shen Qingmeng was sitting on the sofa downstairs flipping through a magazine. In the living room, only a floor lamp by the sofa was turned on, which only illuminated a corner of the sofa, shrouding her in warm yellow light.

The temperature of the air conditioner in the living room was a little low, and Shen Qingmeng was wearing long-sleeved home clothes, with a thin dark gray blanket on his legs, very homely.

She watched intently, but Ji Xinghe walked to the railing and made a slight noise, which immediately alarmed her.

She likes to wear glasses when reading books and looking at computer screens, and is said to be good for eyesight.

Now she wears glasses, squints her eyes slightly, and looks up. The lenses blocked her vision, and Ji Xinghe couldn't see her eyes clearly.

"Awake?" Shen Qingmeng didn't speak for a long time, and his voice was a little hoarse. She cleared her throat and asked him, "Come down, are you hungry?" ”

Ji Xinghe leaned on the railing and went downstairs: "How did you get me up?" Just put it on the couch. ”

As he spoke, he realized that his voice was even hoarse.

Shen Qingmeng closed the magazine, lifted the thin blanket and put it aside, went to the kitchen and brought a glass of water to him: "I carried you up, I have been practicing strength recently, and it seems that it has some effect." ”

Ji Xinghe instantly made up for Princess Shen Qingmeng's hugging him, and a mouthful of water almost squirted out, choking himself and coughing again and again.

Shen Qingmeng patted him on the back and said with a smile: "Just kidding, you are not so drunk that you don't know what to do, I carried you up." The temperature of the air conditioner in the living room is low, so I am afraid that you will catch a cold, and the bedroom is just right. ”

After coughing for a while, Ji Xinghe finally relieved himself: "What time is it?" ”

The curtains were also drawn in the living room, and Ji Xinghe had no way to judge the time.

Shen Qingmeng looked up at the wall clock on the wall: "It's almost seven o'clock, do you want to eat?" There is porridge. ”

As soon as he drank a glass of water, the water temperature was just right, and Ji Xinghe could feel the warm water flowing through his dry throat and flowing down his esophagus into his stomach, which was extremely ironing. Now that Shen Qingmeng mentioned the porridge, he suddenly felt that a glass of water might not be enough, and he still needed some food to soothe his stomach.

Seeing Ji Xinghe nod, Shen Qingmeng turned on the chandelier in the living room.

The furnishings in the living room are simple but comfortable.

There were a few magazines thrown at random on the sofa, nested together with the thin blanket that Shen Qingmeng had just lifted. On the coffee table was a fruit bowl with half a watermelon in it. The watermelon was half eaten with a spoon in it. There was no TV on the wall opposite the couch, and it was a projection screen, and there were books and many small things on the low cabinet below, which looked a little messy.

The slightly messy home scene is very warm and quiet.

Shen Qingmeng took two bowls of porridge from the kitchen, and took out two duck eggs from the refrigerator, knocked them twice, and stood on the table.

The porridge looks like it has been boiling for a long time, soft and glutinous and sweet, with golden duck eggs, Ji Xinghe feels that his stomach is twisted into a ball, and it gradually relaxes.

Shen Qingmeng is very focused on doing things, even eating. Ji Xinghe suddenly remembered a sentence he saw out of nowhere, he woke up from a nap and was in the twilight, and his home was deserted and no longer popular, maybe this was loneliness.

And now, when I wake up from a nap, I have white porridge and duck eggs, and there are people I like by my side, enjoying dinner together.

Maybe this is ordinary happiness.

Ji Xinghe put down his chopsticks after eating: "Have you finished packing your luggage?" ”

Shen Qingmeng slammed at Nunu behind him.

Ji Xinghe turned his head and saw a small suitcase in the corner of the living room.

"I had already packed up a few clothes, some books I used to use, and a notebook. When the time comes, you can put some daily necessities in your school bag. Have you finished packing? Would you like to help? ”

"Yes."

Shen Qingmeng just lowered his head and took a sip of porridge, obviously the question of whether to help or not was just casually said, but he didn't expect Ji Xinghe to really respond.

"What did you pack?"

"I didn't pack anything, I just packed some clothes."

Ji Xinghe planned to pack a few clothes and leave, anyway, everything was left at home, and he would come back to get it if he was missing. Except that it's a bit far from the base, it's not too much trouble.

But now, seeing all the comfort-oriented arrangements in Shen Qingmeng's house, Ji Xinghe just wanted her to help him clean up, a subtle coquettish mentality.

got Ji Xinghe's affirmative answer, although it was a little unexpected, Shen Qingmeng quickly entered the state of preparation.

She leaned sideways, ripped a post-it note from the refrigerator, and pulled a pen out of the dining table drawer, writing and reading as she could.

"There must be a collective dormitory in the base, bedding must be prepared, and I don't know if there are mosquitoes, these small things are written down first, and you will buy them if you don't have them." You only need to bring the summer clothes, and you can come back and get them in the autumn and winter, or I can send them to you. Do you have any usual brands of toiletries, if you don't have them, don't bring them, and buy them when the time comes. And books, do you want to bring them? ”

Ji Xinghe leaned over to watch her write.

In the consistent Shen Qingmeng-style style, all kinds of items are listed in different categories, and what you want to bring and where to buy are clearly written.

Seeing the toiletries, Ji Xinghe's heart moved: "What brand do you use?" ”

Shen Qingmeng was a little unresponsive: "You said shampoo?" Shower gel? ”

Ji Xinghe ruffled the hair hanging on her shoulders and circled her fingers: "This smell." ”

Shen Qingmeng glanced at him with disgust: "I still have more, I'll give you a set." ”

After adding and changing, Shen Qingmeng took out another piece of paper, re-transcribed it, folded it and handed it to Ji Xinghe: "Pack up your things tomorrow, and send you to the camp on the third day." ”

The next day, Ji Xinghe came to pick up Shen Qingmeng as scheduled.

The two families were not far away, and Ji Xinghe rode a bicycle, with one foot on the pedal and one foot on the ground.

When Shen Qingmeng came downstairs, he was surprised when he circled him: "You actually have a bicycle?" ”

Ji Xinghe touched the handlebar: "This is more handsome?" ”

Very handsome indeed.

The vigorous vitality of the young man is extraordinarily brilliant in the sun. The studs on one earlobe reflect the bright light in a dazzling light.

Ji Xinghe patted the back seat: "Let's go, let's go have breakfast first." ”

Shen Qingmeng sat in the back seat and hugged Ji Xinghe's waist from behind: "Sit tight, let's go." ”

Ji Xinghe put a lot of effort on his feet, and the bicycle drove out steadily.

The wind of the summer morning, with a slight dryness, blew on his face, blowing Shen Qingmeng's scattered broken hair. Ji Xinghe's fitness in the past few months has achieved initial results, his waist is lean, and there are faint shadows of abdominal muscles.

Shen Qingmeng wanted to touch it, but he was afraid of disturbing his mind, so he rode the car into the green belt.

There are always some delicious little shops in the alleys of the old town, and people who have lived for a long time can find their way. Ji Xinghe drove her around for a while, and stopped in front of a small shop that didn't even have a door.

The woman who was making wontons at the door of the store saw Ji Xinghe and greeted him: "Xinghe, I haven't been here for a long time, what should I eat?" ”

After speaking, I saw him stop the car, led the girl in the back seat to the store, and asked with a smile, "Bring your girlfriend?" ”

Ji Xinghe nodded a little shyly: "Aunt Zhang, come to a bowl of chicken soup wontons, a basket of steamed dumplings, two buns, and add two eggs to me." ”

"Okay, you can wait a minute."

Ji Xinghe led Shen Qingmeng to the store and picked a seat to sit down.

It is not a small shop from the outside, but the area inside is not large, and there are only four tables, and the environment is very clean.

Ji Xinghe took out the tableware from the disinfection cabinet and put it in front of Shen Qingmeng: "My junior high school is in front, and I always go to school here in the morning, and I always come to eat breakfast at Aunt Zhang's house." ”

"Yes," Aunt Zhang came in from the door with steamed dumplings and buns, such a small shop, the kitchen is located at the door, and it is very convenient to take away breakfast, "Xinghe came every day at that time, and I liked to eat chicken soup wontons the most." ”

"Yes, Aunt Zhang's wontons are the best in this alley."

One sentence made Aunt Zhang laugh even more happily: "The wontons will be ready immediately, you eat them first." ”

Shen Qingmeng thanked Aunt Zhang and picked up a steamed dumpling. Sure enough, the skin is thin and the filling is big, and it is very delicious.

After a while, the chicken soup wontons were also served, and Shen Qingmeng ate a very fulfilling breakfast.

After breakfast, Ji Xinghe took her to the supermarket again, and the two of them purchased all the bits and pieces on the list.

At noon, Ji Xinghe took her to a small shop in the alley for lunch.

At this time, if Shen Qingmeng still can't see that Ji Xinghe's packing up and purchasing daily necessities is the reason for asking her out, then she is not Shen Qingmeng.

So at lunchtime, Shen Qingmeng said to Ji Xinghe with a smile: "Brother Ji, you look at the summer, if you are reluctant to me and want to date me, you can just say it." I just can't bear you and want to date you. ”

Ji Xinghe had some excuses for the embarrassment of being seen through: "Do you want to go to the movies that afternoon?" ”

As long as it is with Ji Xinghe, there is nothing wrong with Shen Qingmeng.

So, two days before Ji Xinghe entered the camp, he and Shen Qingmeng went to the park to watch movies and go to the mall, although they did not say anything, they were full of regrets.
