Chapter 18: Drifting Zero
Because Li Jun and the others were sitting in the shadows under the big tree, although Xiao Ting turned around and glanced at them a few times, she didn't make any more movements, and turned back again. But her face was completely presented in front of Li Jun's eyes, and she was indeed the bright and bright-toothed Xiaoting, but there was more melancholy in her eyes.
Looking at Li Jun's stunned expression, Gao Qi, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't help but turn his head and look at him.
"Strange, come and drink." Li Jun hurriedly grabbed Gao Qi, he was so familiar with Xiao Ting's back, and Gao Qi imprinted her deeply in his heart, he didn't pay attention when he first came, if he saw that figure now and then connected to his own eyes, he would definitely be able to think of who it was.
"What do you see? That look just now. Gauci still twisted his body to control it.
"It's nothing, I drank a little violently just now, and I just got a little upwell." Li Jun took the wine bottle and poured wine into Gao Qi's glass.
"Pour less, pour more for my brother-in-law and Wang Gong, we will be a small witch when we compare the amount of alcohol with them, saying that the three of us respect the two of them, and we will all drink and climb in a while." Gao Qi no longer looked behind him, and blocked the sprinkler bottle held by Li Jun with his hand.
"You come less, I've heard the workers say that the three of you have a lot of alcohol, it's still okay if you don't drink much, and now you don't come to give us a sloppy look, but if you three of you take a big advantage for the two of us." Wang Gong was also in an unusually good mood today, joking with the three of them with a smile on his face.
"We really can't, after all, we're still young, that is, we dare to drink, and if we drink too much, we won't vomit." Gao Qi said and raised his glass to toast Wang Gong's wine.
Li Jun didn't have the heart to drink more after seeing that it was really Xiaoting, and he never thought that she could run away to Beijing, and who were the people with him? While coping with the wine, while thinking about her thoughts, she suddenly remembered whether she had contacted Yuan Yamin in the past six months, whether she had contacted Yuan Jiayi, and thinking about this, I couldn't help but feel the urge to call Yuan Yamin to ask.
When the second glass of wine was down, Li Jun's head was already dizzy, and Gao Qi had already finished the second glass before him, and the liquor had been drunk and he began to drink beer.
"Qi, I'll make a call, you drink with your brother-in-law first." Li Jun staggered to his feet.
"Who are you going to call? Are you going home, will you report to Sister Yamin or Sister Fang Ning? I haven't seen anyone you call in the past 40 days. Gao Qi teased Li Jun with a wicked smile.
"Then you don't care, you drink your bar well, you must accompany your brother-in-law and Wang Gong well, you can't lose our brother's face." Li Jun also wanted Gao Qi to drink as much as he wanted, even if he drank too much, it would be better for Xiao Ting to find her when he walked by, because the place they were sitting in now was a place that everyone who left this food stall had to pass.
"You go call, go to Sweet Honey, don't worry, there are brothers here." Saying that, Gao Qi and Xinli's brother-in-law had another beer.
The night breeze blew the weeping willows on the side of the road, and also blew Li Jun's troubled mood at the moment, I wanted to go up and ask Xiaoting, but I was afraid that the appearance of him and Gao Qi would disrupt Xiaoting's life, looking at Xiaoting's dress and the faint fat pink on her face, Xiaoting is at least much better now than half a year ago, but the melancholy on her face is far worse than half a year ago.
Full of worries, Li Jun walked forward about 50 meters at the turn of the road to find a public telephone hall, took out an IP phone card from his trouser pocket and inserted it into the telephone and began to call Yuan Yamin, and when the number reached the penultimate position, Li Jun not only hesitated.
The time to raise her wrist to look at her watch is almost nine o'clock, nine o'clock is still early in this hot summer, but at this time her family should be at home, who will be the first to answer the phone, her father or brother, these two people are suspicious of themselves.
However, thinking of Xiao Ting, who was sitting not far from him, Li Jun still pulled out the last number with a hard heart, and the beep of the phone connection sounded in his ears like thunder, and Li Junjue's heart also jumped with the bang.
"Hey, hello, who are you looking for?" It was Yuan Yamin who answered the phone, it may seem that the phone number was from other places, and Yuan Yamin also asked very politely.
Hearing Yuan Yamin's voice, Li Jun's heart relaxed suddenly, and then the idea of wanting to make a joke for her rose, so he pinched his nose and learned Mandarin and said, "May I ask if you are Miss Yuan Yamin?" We are from Beijing CCTV, and we heard that you are very beautiful and temperamental, and we would like to invite you to come to our TV station to record a program......"
"Li Jun, you idiot." Before Li Jun finished speaking, Yuan Yamin's scolding came.
"Minmin, how could you hear it was mine?" Li Jun was confused.
"Hmph, I knew it was you, tell me what you did this holiday, I forgave you for the holiday, you can't just have no movement on a holiday. No, why are you in Beijing? Yuan Yamin's voice changed suddenly.
"Minmin, do you know Xiaoting is in Beijing?" Li Jun's heart tightened.
"Did you see her?" Yuan Yamin's words once again confirmed Li Jun's speculation.
"I saw her, but I didn't dare to recognize her, I came to work at the construction site in Beijing with Gao Qi and Yang Xinli during the holidays, this is not about to end, the three of us invited Yang Xinli's brother-in-law and a foreman to eat outside, and Xiaoting sat not far from us." Li Jun's heart was full of embarrassment, he had been estranged from Yuan Yamin for half a year, and he had also forgotten Xiaoting.
"Try not to recognize her, or it may cause trouble for both you and her." Yuan Yamin was very eager to hope that Li Jun would not intersect with Xiaoting again, and after a moment of silence, her voice came again, but this time it was much gentler, "You have suffered a lot while working at the construction site, I know that you are strong, but you are strong and you only let your suffering bear silently alone, you never called me to tell me about your part-time job during this holiday, Brother Jun, you have worked hard." ”
"No, our work is fine, it's not as hard as you think, I will definitely persevere, if you don't insist, then there will be success." So Xiaoting still contacted you later? But you never told me. Li Jun was still very surprised.
"Hmph, have you spoken to me properly in the past six months?" Saying that, Yuan Yamin was a little resentful.
"It's me who is bad, but you don't give me a chance to talk about it, do you?" Li Jun smiled brightly, hoping that Yuan Yamin would not mention the chaos of the past half a year, but quickly understand Xiaoting's situation and see how to do it next.
"Okay, I don't bother with these anymore, I also want to open it, some emotional things are not something that we can control and deal with by our age and environment, but Xiaoting's affairs are still under your control, try not to let him get closer." Yuan Yamin has a clearer understanding of his father's attitude and handling of feelings this time.
"So what is Xiaoting doing in Beijing now, seeing her eating with a few students and people, but there is obviously not much happiness on her face, but more melancholy." Li Jun's words were also full of worry.
"Brother Jun, I know that you and Xiaoting have a very deep relationship, you think she and you are a poor person with the same disease, but she also has her pursuits, she is at least better than you now, better than you eat, dress well, live better, and have a much richer material life than you, and her dream of going to school has also come true, she is now studying in a secondary vocational school in Beijing, so you still don't recognize each other anymore. You're fine, mainly Gauci, but don't let him be stupid again. Yuan Yamin's words always seemed to be hiding something, and his tone of voice was a little anxious.
"Minmin, did Xiaoting get all this in exchange for anything?" Li Jun's heart sank, thinking of Xiaoting's delicate face like a flower, and the anger in his heart rose a little.
"Li Jun, take care of yourself, everyone has dreams, and everyone has something to pay for their dreams." Yuan Yamin was really anxious.
Before she finished speaking, Li Jun heard Gao Qi's hoarse shout not far away, and hurriedly said to Yuan Yamin: "Minmin, I'll hang up first, Gao Qi seems to be in trouble." ”
"Brother Jun, first control yourself, if you are also impulsive, Gao Qi can't control himself, for me, just for me, don't be impulsive, because I will worry about you thousands of miles away, I can't see or touch everything you have, but the worry in my heart is by your side, don't let my heart not come back." Yuan Yamin's voice was full of worry.
"I know, I'll control myself!" Saying that, Li Jun hung up the phone and ran to the place where he had just eaten.
Turning around the corner of the street, I saw several sturdy men surrounding Gao Qi and Yang Xinli, at this moment Gao Qi was like a mad lion, holding a chair in his hand and waving it to smash everyone around, but in front of him was Xiao Ting, whose cheeks were full of tears.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Li Jun's patience was thrown out of the clouds in an instant, and his brother and the most respected sister roared and cried in front of him, maybe it was these strong men around them, Li Jun also roared angrily and ran over, and then kicked at the person who was close to him.
"Little brother, stop it!" When she saw Li Jun shouting and rushing over, Xiao Ting was stunned for a moment, and rushed out of the crowd as fast as she could, blocking the person Li Jun was about to kick.
Li Jun also retracted his body violently, but the whole person still rushed towards Xiao Ting, the two people's bodies gently collided together, Xiao Ting was knocked backwards and retreated, and then the whole person fell into the arms of the person Li Jun was about to kick.
"Little brother, are you Li Jun?" After the man hugged Xiao Ting, he patted him on the shoulder affectionately, and then asked Xiao Ting to stand up straight and look at Li Jun with a smile.
