In the evening, Chu Xi walked around the house, picked out several sets of swimsuits and asked Jingcheng which one looked good. Seeing that her husband was working again, he hummed dissatisfiedly: "You still work overtime on Friday, do you want to evaluate model workers?" ”

Jing Cheng took her eyes off the computer, glanced at the two sets of swimsuits she was holding, and had a questioning expression: "Didn't you just climb the city wall and play rafting, and you still brought swimsuits?" ”

Chu Xi said: "There is a swimming pool in the hotel, and I finally persuaded myself to exercise, so I insisted on it for two or three weeks, and I was afraid that I would not be too lazy to move again as soon as I stopped." ”

Jing Cheng didn't say anything more, Chu Xi went to get other swimsuits, compared in front of the fitting mirror, and chose a set of blue one-piece swimsuits, with a hollow and crossed design on the back, which looked good and would not show too much.

She put it in her suitcase and said to her husband: "Next time we drive ourselves and go there again, in October, when the weather is cool, the oranges are ripe, and the orange groves are all over the mountains." The oranges there are delicious. ”

The husband glanced at her, looked dumbfounded, and said, "You just stay for one night, do you need to bring so many things?"

Chu Xi stuck out his tongue, broke his head towards the computer, and said something in his mouth: "You didn't see anything, you didn't see anything." ”

At eight o'clock the next morning, everyone gathered at the door of the bank in twos and threes, and the tour guide and three buses had also arrived.

Jin Ge is the team leader, and she sits at the front with the tour guide, and she also carefully prepares a box of snacks for each car in advance. President Zhong and several department bosses sat in the front two rows, Chu Xi greeted them one by one with a smile, and found a middle position waiting for Yan Lu to come up.

Looking around, she found that Cheng Xu did not come alone.

The woman next to him was wearing a white T, and the black cap was pressed so low that it almost blocked most of her face. The two of them did not have intimate movements, and Cheng Xu put his hat over his face. She shook Yanlu's arm gossipily and bit her ear gently: "Cheng Xu is next to his wife?" ”

Xu Yanlu didn't blatantly look back to confirm, shook her head weakly, glanced around the other colleagues in the car, and then blinked mysteriously to indicate certainty.

Usually, the activities organized by the unit are frequent, and there are many people who come with children, but the spouse also came over, and it was the first time that Chu Xi met him.

Yan Lu also whispered in her ear: "Did he really do something to make his wife caught?" Chu Xi chuckled and patted her arm and said, "You have a big brain, you dare to think of anything." ”

She took out the sunscreen spray from her bag and asked Yanlu if she wanted to spray it a little, and the two of them said that they would like to take care of it, and other colleagues also began to ask her to ask for it, and also said that they should take precautions.

A colleague in the back row joked: "No wonder you're so white, sunscreen is like this." ”

Chu Xi turned his head, was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing to tan, the main thing is that you are afraid of sunburn." I'm prone to allergies and peeling skin as soon as I get sunburned. ”

Everyone was just joking, and the atmosphere was relaxed all the way, and the hours of driving passed quickly. After coming down from the highway and settling down for a good meal, I set off to play the rafting Jiangnan Grand Canyon.

The bus passed through the city, all the way around the mountains and dense forests of the trail up, although the scorching sun, in front of him was the sound of water on one side, and on the other side was patches of emerald green, Chu Xi felt quiet and a little cool.

Probably because it is my father's hometown, there is also a natural sense of intimacy.

Rafting is divided into leisure rafting and military rafting, Zhong Hejian patted his round belly, waved his hand and said that he was too old to be stimulated, so it was better to choose leisure rafting, and insisted on pulling several other leaders of similar age together.

A few colleagues with children were afraid that it would be unsafe to play in the water, so they said that they should play grass skiing next to them.

Everyone is scattered in their own activities, and Jin Ge is the person in charge, and he can't stop at all.

Chu Xi pulled Xu Yanlu and ran to Jin Ge excitedly to help her distribute raincoats and waterproof mobile phone cases.

"Wait a minute, let's play military together, I heard it's very exciting." Chu Xi's face was full of joy, and he pouted Jin Ge and Yan Lu.

Yan Lu said timidly: "I'm a little afraid of heights. ”

Jin Ge was also eager to try: "I'm fine, see if you like it." ”

"Wait a minute." Chu Xi saw Zhuang Xiaoyue standing next to her alone, beckoned to her, and said, "Xiaoyue, let's fight a boat together." ”

After getting the approval, the four of them put on raincoats and life jackets, all the way against the backdrop of the mountains and rivers, the valley stream was quiet, and several little girls were screaming and frolicking. Chu Xi playfully held the stream water and splashed it on Jin Ge's boat, and the other party screamed "ah", and she slapped a beat.

It's over, this is not Jin Ge's voice, nor is it Xu Yanlu's.

Through the raincoat and life jacket, Chu Xi recognized the owner of the black cap for the first time. Although the brim of the hat kept some of the water out, some of it still wet her face. She hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”

She fumbled in her pockets, and was afraid that she would get wet by playing in the water, so she didn't even ask for a waterproof bag, and simply left all the things such as tissues and mobile phones in the car.

Chu Xi apologized again in embarrassment.

"It's fine." Song Chuchu responded angrily, she took off her hat, and it was not easy to wipe her face with makeup. She glanced at the girl who had just splashed water at her, and although she didn't mean it, she still felt uncomfortable. Especially Cheng Xu, who was beside him, was silent from beginning to end, and his heart was even more angry inexplicably.

When the boat drifted to the end, she pulled off her life jacket and walked straight to the car, Cheng Xu followed her unhappily.

Xu Yanlu happened to be walking behind their husband and wife, Xiao Lei detected a subtle signal, she touched Chu Xi's body with her elbow, and asked carefully: "Do you think that the two of them are awkward?" ”

"What's wrong?" Chu Xi smiled, and also pretended to look at Yan Lu's observation for a while, "I think you are weird." ”

"Seriously, I always feel that their relationship is distant and stiff. How can there be a husband and wife like this? Yan Lu also analyzed the Tao.

"You're a person who has never been married, and you haven't even talked much about love, can you know how husband and wife get along?"

"You know, a recent blind date, I think I want to talk about it. After a second meeting, he dragged me to listen to him sing at the self-service singing machine in the subway station. Yan Lu was poked at the pain point, and the whole person began to be bad, "The point is that he sings very badly!" ”

Chu Xi was so happy.

Xu Yanlu continued: "Can't you go to KTV if you like to sing? In that kind of closed and narrow space, I couldn't bear to think that the songs he sang were all freshly eaten with the smell of grilled crucian carp with green onions. ”

Chu Xi just held his stomach and laughed back to the car, and Xu Yanlu couldn't help but burst into laughter when he talked about it.

"Chu Xi, your sunscreen turned out to be not tricky, it's quite easy to use."

"Huh?" She didn't understand what it meant.

The colleague sitting in the front row of Chu Xi showed her the position of his arm to his neck, and explained: "Just now I thought that spraying my face and neck was enough, but I didn't expect my arm at all." Look! ”

Chu Xi stood up, but met Song Chuchu's eyes that happened to turn his head and look around. She was still sorry for the fact that she had just splashed someone wet, and threw an apologetic look at her.

Song Chuchu didn't have a collar, sat back in his position, and thought to himself, heh, she is actually Chu Xi?

Of course, Chu Xi didn't know that he was so inexplicably regarded as a "fantasy rival".

The bus returned the same way and took them to the hotel, where Jin Ge began to busily check everyone in. Chu Xi was willing to be her attendant, helping her collect her ID card and arrange a room together.

"Xi, there is just one suite left, otherwise you, me, Xu Yanlu, and Zhuang Xiaoyue are together? There are two rooms anyway. Jin Ge looked up and said that she had already discovered that the little girl named Zhuang Xiaoyue had been timid, and she couldn't talk to others, so she could still talk and laugh next to Chu Xi.

Chu Xi smiled: "Okay." She turned her head to mention it to the little girl, and the people breathed a sigh of relief happily, saying that she was worried about being assigned to the same room with the others, but she was not familiar with anyone when she first arrived, and she was also worried in her heart. Now I am finally relieved.

Chu Xi looked at Zhuang Xiaoyue, who was wearing a pair of denim bib shorts and two braids today, and remembered that when she came to work on the first day, she was wearing professional clothes that showed her waist, which was not a style at all. Sometimes she remembered that she wanted to gossip with Jin Ge and them, but every time they met, she was diverted by other things, and she forgot to mention it.

Jin Ge said: "That Cheng Xu in your department, called me yesterday and asked me if I could change the standard room to a suite, and I wanted to bring my children with me." The room was also reserved, and he said that the standard room could be obtained just now. ”

Yan Lu was not calm at all: "Shouldn't a normal couple be a big bed room?" ”

Chu Xi shrugged: "What's this, I like to open the standard room with my old man, anyway, I ended up squeezing into the same bed to sleep." After saying that, she felt that she had missed her mouth, and stuck out her tongue and ran to the elevator first.

Usually, everyone is accustomed to a tight work rhythm, and changing to a comfortable and soothing town is also unique.

Chu Xi's impression of the city was also stuck several years ago, his father brought the whole family to come, and patiently explained to her everywhere he went. This is a small city with mountains and rivers, beautiful scenery and simple folk customs, and his father also said that when he is older, he still wants to come back here to retire.

A few colleagues who still had more energy said that there was an artificial lake opposite the hotel, and they wanted to go over and walk around, and asked if anyone else was with them in the group. Chu Xi said faintly: "Let's climb the Great Wall at night, it's dark and steep on the big night, how about finding a bar to drink some wine?" ”

This kind of thing, Xu Yanlu has always been the most fond of joining in the fun, of course I approve of it.

Jin Ge nodded as if he had made up his mind. The last time I was drunk at home, and I had a child's life, and I didn't even have the freedom to drink. She said she was going to go anyway.

When the three of them looked at Zhuang Xiaoyue, she said softly: "I have never been to a bar." ”

The four of them changed their clothes in their rooms, hailed a taxi and found a small bar by the lake.
