Chapter 44: Drunk
Li Xia read the text message, and really wanted to flee the scene quickly.
It turned out to be the accommodation arranged by Miss Ma, but I didn't mention it at all before, where did Li Xia know.
Anyway, I came here, and it was okay to stay for one night, anyway, there were so many people in the hotel, and Lin Qingyuan came with his classmates, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
After lunch, Lin Qingyuan accompanied Li Xia to the service desk on the first floor to get the door card.
"Where do you live?"
"I live on the top floor."
Li Xia took the door and saw that it was on the 8th floor.
Two people got into the elevator side by side.
Li Xia thought, fortunately, there was no one in the elevator, if this was seen, it wouldn't be talked about.
"You can go back and rest, too." Li Xia said.
Lin Qingyuan sent Li Xia to the door of the room, "Call me if you have something." ”
"Hmm."
Li Xia opened the door, hung his coat and bag in the cloakroom at the door, and went to wash his face.
The room was too quiet, Li Xia looked for the remote control, turned on the TV, and watched the news.
The room where Li Xia lived was large and open, and she could see the small bridge, flowing water, and people in the distance.
Beautiful pastoral life, Li Xia was reluctant to close the curtains, lay on the bed, and fell asleep after a while.
Li Xia woke up and it was already dark outside.
Picked up the phone on the bedside table, there was no missed call, one day from Lin Qingyuan's WeChat: "There is something to do, it will be a little later, you can also go downstairs first." ”
Li Xia got up, washed, put on makeup, cleaned up, and was about to go out when she heard a knock on the door.
When I opened the door, it was Lin Qingyuan.
"You didn't go downstairs."
"Just got up."
"Have you slept until now?"
"Hmm."
"That's just right. Let's go eat out. ”
In the ancient town, xiaolongbao is more famous, and everyone goes to those famous shops to eat. Especially on holidays like May Day, there are a lot of people from other places, and there are long queues in front of those storefronts.
Lin Qingyuan knew that there was one, Grandma Xiaolongbao, which tasted very good, and there were not many people.
When Li Xia arrived here, her eyes were dark, and she just listened to the arrangements of others.
Grandma's shop is very small, with a few aunts at the door making xiaolongbao and a middle-aged woman bringing customers in.
There are still empty seats inside, but the tables in the small shop are very close, and Li Xia leans sideways and sits in the innermost.
Because the xiaolongbao are freshly baked, it will be a little slow, and the two of them sat down for a while.
Li Xia looked at his mobile phone and was chatting with Li Xiangtian on WeChat, when a request for video chat suddenly came, Li Xia was startled, and his first reaction was to go out to talk.
Just when Li Xia got up and walked out, she saw that her aunt had already brought the hot and sour soup she ordered.
Li Xiangtian: "Are you outside?" ”
Li Xia: "It's a holiday, so I have to let myself out." ”
"Where did you go to play, did you go with your classmates? Go back to the dorm early, it's not safe to be outside at night. ”
"With my classmates, I'm eating out, and I'll go back after eating."
"Why haven't you eaten so late, it's not good for your stomach."
"Got it, Dad. For the sake of my stomach, I'll go eat first. ”
Li Xia was afraid to continue talking, so he said that he was revealing after a while, and ended the call. Run outside and talk, that's it. Otherwise, the whole room will witness Li Xia's panic moment.
Go back and sit down, the xiaolongbao is already on the table.
"Whose phone number?"
"My dad."
"Is there anything going on at home?"
"Nope. Just ask what you're doing during the holidays. ”
"What did you say?"
"I'll just say I'm going to go out and play."
"Didn't say who you hung out with?"
"Say, and classmates. I said I'd go back to my dorm after dinner. Li Xia smiled, "I'm sorry, I lied." ”
"Hurry up and eat, it's not delicious when it's cold."
Li Xia picked up a crab roe small cage, only to see that he had already placed a vinegar dish in front of him, and gently dipped the small cage in the vinegar dish and put it in his mouth, there was soup and meat and it was very fresh, and it was very satisfying to chew.
"It was delicious. You're good at finding a place. ”
"Then you eat more, there are three fresh foods in a cage here, you can taste it."
Although Li Xia has a bit of an appetite, a basket of 15 xiaolongbao is enough to eat.
Lin Qingyuan probably saw that Li Xia was eating very fragrantly, and said, "Wait a minute, let's go to the old street, there are more snacks, you can eat while watching." ”
Li Xia felt that she was really full of food, so she just walked along the river.
At night, the ancient town has flashing neon lights, and the lights are reflected in the water, like a colorful oil painting. The breeze blowing on the face makes people feel particularly suitable.
"The old house opposite is very smelly, is it going to be demolished?"
"In the renovation, the original style will be retained. You see that the shops on both sides of the pedestrian street are different from the decoration in the urban area, and they are all planned in a unified way, requiring antique decoration. ”
"When I first came in the morning, I almost didn't even recognize Starbucks, no longer a green mermaid, but a brown mermaid."
As he spoke, he walked to the door of a convenience store.
"You're waiting, I'm going to buy some water." Li Xia said.
Lin Qingyuan did not refuse.
When Li Xia came out of the convenience store, he happened to see him, took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, smoked one, lit it, and spit out a cloud roll in his mouth.
I don't know when, Li Xia felt that the man who smoked was particularly attractive, and he may have been influenced by Li Xiangtian.
When I was a child, I didn't understand, when adults played mahjong, they often played while smoking, Li Xia didn't know how much second-hand smoke she smoked, but fortunately she grew up healthy.
"I'm a little tired from walking, let's find a place to sit." Li Xia said.
Just not far ahead, there was a small garden, and two people sat cross-legged.
Li Xia took out a can of beer and handed it to Lin Qingyuan.
Lin Qingyuan opened the can, "Do you want to drink some, I see that you liked to drink it last time." ”
Remembering the last time he drank, he almost got drunk, and Li Xia felt so embarrassed. "I don't dare to drink it, you won't drive today, you can drink, there is still it here."
Lixia drank the juice of her grapes.
"When are you going back?"
"I'm going to go out of town with my classmates tomorrow."
"Okay."
Li Xia originally thought that she could go back to school with him tomorrow, but it wouldn't work.
"I can send you back to school tomorrow."
"No, you're busy. I'll go back myself. ”
In the May season, the temperature has already begun to rise to welcome the arrival of summer. The park is already full of flowers, and it's not just people who like to stay inside, but mosquitoes even more.
Li Xia scratched his arm without mentioning it, and when he came out at night, he didn't wear a school uniform, which was a real mistake.
"Shall we go back?"
"You're going back to bed so early?"
Li Xia had slept all afternoon, and he was still asleep, "No. There are too many mosquitoes here. ”
"Let's go back to the hotel and sit at the bar on the top floor."
44
The ancient town, shrouded in neon lights, is quiet and cozy.
Li Xia sat in front of the bar counter, looking at the various foreign wines on the opposite shelf, and her eyes were glazed.
"What do you want to drink?"
Li Xia can't order it immediately, you have to take a look at the wine list, there is no wine on it, it looks very beautiful, and it is no different from juice.
Bloody Mary, the name looks very enjoyable, the picture shows a glass of wine that is indeed pink and tender, so order it and try it. Lin Qingyuan heard Li Xia's choice and asked rhetorically, "Are you sure?" ”
"I'll drink the same thing, so be it."
Every time I order something, it is also very time-consuming, anyway, the wine on the wine list is the first time I have seen it, and I will taste it fresh.
There was low, pure music in the bar, and the lights were just right. There are not many people in the bar, maybe most of the people who live in the hotel are foreign tourists, and the night tour of the ancient town is also a unique taste, how can there be time to soak in the bar.
Immediately, the waiter brought two glasses of wine and a few plates of snacks.
It turned out that Lin Qingyuan ordered a glass of red wine, and he was in the middle of the rules.
Li Xia took a sip, sour, salty, a little more celery than lemon juice, in short, a little weird. In order not to taste the strange smell of the sake, I ate a snack and swallowed the wine.
Finally solved the Bloody Mary, or drinking water is more suitable for yourself.
Li Xia stood up and wanted to go to the bathroom, but felt that she couldn't move under her feet, and forcibly let herself get out of her seat and fell on Lin Qingyuan's body at once.
"I'm sorry, I didn't stand still."
"I'll take you to the bathroom."
Returning from the bathroom, Li Xia felt a little dizzy and wanted to go back to her room.
Lin Qingyuan helped the swaying Li Xia and replied to the guest room on the 8th floor.
Lin Qingyuan helped Li Xia to the bed, covered the quilt, and whispered, rest well, I'll go first.
THE MOMENT HE GOT UP, RICHA GRABBED THE CORNER OF HIS POLO SHIRT AND MUTTERED, "DON'T GO." ”
Lin Qingyuan sat back on the edge of the bed.
"Lixia, you're drunk, just get some sleep."
"I'm not drunk, I'm sober."
"I'll go get you a bottle of water and drink plenty of water."
"I don't drink water, I'm not thirsty. Don't go. ”
Li Xia tried to sit up, leaned forward, put her arms around Lin Qingyuan's neck, and pressed her face against his chest. Because it was really a bit tight, Lin Qingyuan finally opened her hand and put her back on the pillow.
Li Xia's head was just next to the pillow, and before Lin Qingyuan could raise his head, Li Xia pulled again, and Lin Qingyuan's mouth just touched Li Xia's face.
It seems that Li Xia is not lightly drunk. His face was flushed, his eyes were foggy, and he had the posture of playing hooligan with the strength of wine.
Lin Qingyuan regretted a little that he didn't stop her from ordering Bloody Mary, although this is a cocktail, the main ingredient is indeed a very strong Ford Plus, and he didn't feel anything when he first drank it, and his stamina was much greater than that of ordinary wine.
The curtains completely divided the inside and outside of the house into two worlds, and when Li Xia woke up, the room was still dark, and she didn't know what time it was.
I reached for my phone on the bedside table and found a note that read: Rest well, call me when you get up. The back name is Lin Qingyuan.
How did Lin Qingyuan get into the room, he was too careless. Li Xia lifted the quilt and checked whether she was disheveled.
Fortunately, I had a false alarm and slept in my clothes.
Li Xia recalled that last night, he went to the bar with Lin Qingyuan, drank wine, and then broke off.
It was a dream at night, and it was clearly visible that he had been pulling the corner of Lin Qingyuan's clothes, pestering him, not letting him go, and sleeping in his arms for a long, long time.
Li Xia couldn't tell if it was a dream or if she really did it last night.
Mom, it's such a shame. Never drink again.
Li Xia looked at the table below, it was already eight o'clock in the morning, let's flash people first, don't eat breakfast, it would be too embarrassing if you meet in the restaurant.
Li Xia packed up her things and went to check out.
After getting into the taxi, Li Xia decided to leave without saying a word, and it was quite boring, so he sent a WeChat message to Lin Qingyuan, telling him that he had gone back to school.
There was a feeling of fleeing the crime scene quickly, and it was a little relieved when I arrived at school.
When Li Xia arrived at school, it was already about ten o'clock, and he didn't feel hungry at all, and the smell of yesterday's wine seemed to still remain in his stomach, so he returned to the dormitory and began to drink water violently.
After taking a shower and having lunch at the restaurant, Li Xia went to the studio. Chu Zhongnan's request is to deliver the work in September, okay, Li Xia thought that it could be one day earlier, so that in case there are unqualified works, there is enough time to make revisions.
However, all afternoon, Li Xia was a little absent-minded, not knowing if that had really happened last night, or if it was just a dream.
Lin Qingyuan replied to her with a message, just: "Okay, pay attention to safety." ”
Listening to the tone, it's no different from usual.
Li Xia knew that in the next week, Lin Qingyuan would be on a business trip and should not meet him at school. In any case, after a long time, the memory will not be so clear.
Painting in the studio, the progress is not very smooth, a person feels very bored during the holidays, she plans to go to the University of Technology to find Zhu Lanlan.
didn't say hello in advance, and went downstairs to Zhu Lanlan's dormitory by himself.
sent a message: "I'm downstairs in your dormitory, come down." ”
Soon, Zhu Lanlan, who was wearing pink pajamas, ran out of the dormitory building.
"How do you know I'm in the dorm, and what if I'm not there?"
"If you're not here, I'll go back, what's the big deal."
"I was going out with my classmates, but she didn't go because she had something to do. You're here at the right time. ”
"Let's go shopping."
"Okay, go upstairs first, I'll get dressed."
When I arrived at Zhu Lanlan's dormitory, I found that Zhu Lanlan was also alone.
"Your dorm mates are out."
"Hmm. If my boyfriend were here, I wouldn't be at school. ”
Zhu Lanlan was still rummaging through the cupboard, not sure what to wear.
"Whatever you're looking for, just wear one. Let's go buy new clothes, shall we? ”
"What's wrong with you today, you usually ask you to go shopping for clothes, and what else do you say The most important thing is inner beauty."
"Yes, external beauty is also very important, my wardrobe is full of sportswear, and I will wear more ladylike dresses in the future, how about it?"
"You didn't take the wrong medicine."
"Sober. Please eat delicious food in the evening. ”
"And what kind of machination?"
"Don't be afraid, I'm going to get rich."
"And this good thing?"
Li Xia told Zhu Lanlan in detail about the things he was going to sell his paintings.
"Then let's go quickly, and slaughter you today."
