We decided to walk back to our rented place.

I was going to call a tricycle, but Ding Ying didn't agree. She proposed to walk. She said it was a shame to spend such a good time on a tricycle.

I was going to walk down another street to the road in front of the college, but my intentions were self-evident, I didn't want Ding Ying to drag me to the alley where the red light district was located.

"Let's go for a walk and feel the atmosphere." Ding Ying did not relent.

"Then you've changed your outfit." I'm talking back.

"What's the change?" Ding Ying asked.

"Don't you want to feel the feelings? Could it be that the retreat house will accommodate women? I said.

"I said you really want to be crooked. Just take a look, you know? Say that the rest house does not accept women, do you often visit? Ding Ying sneered.

"I don't often go shopping to meet my female classmates?" I simply followed Ding Ying's words.

"Go. Forgive me for not having the guts. I can hear you all right. By the way, which retreat house are your classmates in? ”

"What? Are you also fascinated by her beauty? I teased.

"Everyone has a love for beauty. Just tell me. ”

I couldn't help it, and I said the name of the lounge.

It's a matter of nature. It is not surprising that a wealthy child, and a "female brother", who always has to evade fares when traveling by train, has the idea of going to the red light district to feel something.

Maybe it's a weekend, and it's prime time, and business in the red light district is booming. Almost every house has two or three "guests" in a "reception room" of a few square meters.

As soon as I walked into the red light district, Ding Ying grabbed my hand and really startled me.

"What are you doing here?" I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Ding Ying's gourd.

"lest those girls wave to you one by one." Ding Ying said.

Speaking of which, Ding Ying took my hand and walked in the alleyway, and none of the girls in the store waved at me. I remember that day I was alone with Chu Huoyu, and the girls from any leisure house squeezed their eyebrows at me along the way.

But although Ding Ying held my hand and pretended to be my girlfriend, her eyes kept looking into the leisure room.

When I arrived at Pegatron Leisure House, Ding Ying dragged me and didn't let me go.

Needless to say, Pegatron's business is better. There were four or five people wandering outside the house. I noticed that there was an age that was probably in the fifties.

Chu Huoyu was sitting on the platform inside. The young people who were hugging in front of the stage looked like college students.

Ding Ying let go of my arm and approached the Pegatron Leisure House. I grabbed her arm and pulled her out.

"Don't be too curious." I say.

"I want to see how attractive Brother Wang's signboard really is." Ding Ying is still unsatisfied.

"Didn't you watch it that afternoon?" I say.

"How is that the same? Environment, you know? There should be a corresponding environment. ”

"I think you know a lot."

"What do you mean? Hurt me? Ding Ying clenched her fists and clenched her fists.

I hurriedly ran away. Ding Ying actually caught up. Ding Ying is dressed in sportswear and a pair of casual sneakers on the soles of her feet, and she is not ambiguous at all when she runs.

"I thought you didn't understand." I ran and turned back to continue my banter.

Ding Ying sped up. Seeing that Ding Ying caught up with me and wanted to "violence" me, I immediately accelerated, and at this time, I bumped into a person impartially.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," I hurriedly apologized because I felt like I hit the other person quite hard.

"Zheng Qihang?" A familiar voice.

I looked up, "Zhu Yi?" ”

"You're ...... Alone"

Ding Ying ran to me.

"Ding Ying? You guys...... Together? Zhu Yi was stunned.

"Yes," Ding Ying said, "let's go shopping." You're here for fun, huh? ”

"yes, ah, no, let's pass by, go to the front street." Zhu Yi's white face could be seen clearly and turned red even under the reflection of colorful lanterns.

"yes, we're going to the instrumental music store." One of the two who was with Zhu Yi said.

"We're fellow countrymen." Another added.

"At this time, the instrumental music store is still open, which is really rare." Ding Ying said sarcastically.

"Just go and see, it's okay if the door is closed. Here we go. Zhu Yi said.

When Zhu Yi and the others walked away, Ding Ying covered her mouth and laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" It's embarrassing to meet in the red light district, but it's not enough to laugh like this.

"Sanctimonious. Did you know, Zheng Qihang? The scene just now reminded me of the word sanctimonious. "Ding Ying's hand.

"Do you mean Zhu Yi?"

"I really can't imagine that a humble gentleman will also come to this kind of Fengyue venue for recreation, hehehe."

"Don't forget, people can't accept us to appear in this kind of Fengyue venue together." I reminded Ding Ying.

"That's right," Ding Ying stopped smiling, "There are more than ten conjectures, but I don't care." What about you? ”

"I care." I say.

"What do you care about?"

"I care about Zhu Defa fixing me."

"you."

Because we kept talking and laughing, before we knew it, we were on the road in front of the college. The academy entered a dormant period. From a distance, except for the area of the dormitory building, which is still bright, the rest of the place is dark, and even the street lights have been turned off. The First Affiliated Hospital opposite it has not changed and is still brightly lit, which is in stark contrast.

I remember it was a moonless night, there were not a few stars, and the whole sky was like a huge black cloth, and the few stars were jewels set in the black cloth.

However, in the provincial capital, the presence or absence of the moon does not affect the walking of passers-by. The lights in the buildings on both sides of the road and the street lamps light the road as bright as daytime. If you are in the countryside, such as the East Gate, where I was born, it is almost impossible to go out on a moonless night, and if you have to go out, you have to light a torch.

The official mention of raising money was when we entered the community, and Ding Ying took the initiative to talk about this topic.

"What's the solution? Naturally, I went back to discuss with my parents, strictly speaking with my mother, but there was not much hope. And they can't tell them the truth. I sighed deeply.

"Yes, no one will understand our righteous deeds."

"I don't know how much my grandfather can squeeze out." At this time, I suddenly remembered my grandmother, who had passed away. If my grandmother, who loved me so much, was still alive, she would have spared no effort to help me.

"You also count on an old man?" Ding Ying didn't understand.

"You don't know what's going on in my house. My grandfather only had one child, my mother, and I was the only one he cared for. So he will definitely help me, and he will definitely give me more than my parents gave me," I patiently explained to Ding Ying, "but they are all rare. ”

"How much do you think they'll give you?" Ding Ying asked.

"It won't be more than five thousand." I say.

"That's less than a quarter. Don't you have any other place to raise money but them? Don't you have any seven aunts and eight aunts? "Ding Ying looks as anxious as I am. Thinking about it, she should be in a hurry, it was her idea to negotiate with money, and now that the negotiation has been completed, the key is to see if she can raise the scheduled 20,000 yuan.

I shook my head. My father and mother are both single-handed, where did the seven aunts and eight aunts come from.

"Think about it, like friends and classmates."

If I talk about friends and classmates, it is nothing more than a few brothers I met in the railway middle school, but they are either still consumers like me, or they are struggling to start a business, how can they have spare money to squeeze me? The only one with a wealthy family is Xiong Yanfei, but this family has been tossed by Xiong Yanfei's illness, and his condition has deteriorated, not to mention that Xiong Yanfei has left the world.

"Think about it again," Ding Ying reminded further.

"It's gone. It's really gone. "You don't have to go back to junior high school. Fat them? Joke. Jiangcun Middle School? None of them kept in touch.

"How could it be gone?" Ding Ying said.

"If you want to say yes, that's you." I was annoyed by Ding Ying's question, so I threw out this sentence to block her.

"That's right," Ding Ying clapped her hands, "and me." You're going around in a big circle, but you're ignoring the most recent. ”

"What? You? ”

"What? Not convinced? Who do you know about me? Miss Ding. ”

"Oh, I'm so annoyed, don't joke with me. Not in the mood, you know? It's about having to be in a good mood to make jokes. I said.

"I'm not kidding you." Ding Ying said very seriously.

"It doesn't help, you know? I also know that you have money, but even if you lend me one or two thousand, the gap is still very big. ”

"I'll give you sixteen thousand."

"What?!" I thought I had misheard.

"I'll give you sixteen thousand!" Ding Ying was quite proud.

"Say it again."

"I'll give you sixteen thousand." Ding Ying was stunned word by word.

I didn't believe Ding Ying's words at all. However, Ding Ying's serious appearance doesn't seem like a joke at all. Ding Ying has always been more serious on the major issues of right and wrong.

This really corresponds to that sentence - if you have the intention to plant flowers but not to bloom, you have no intention to plant willows and willows.

"Why didn't you say it earlier? You see I'm in a hurry, I'm thinking about it. "I finally realized what it means to be overjoyed.

"Who told you not to be smart? If you were smart enough, you should have thought of me. Ding Ying was unforgiving.

"How could I have thought that a person who got along with me day and night and even had to run away from a train ticket turned out to be a rich man? I'll admit, I don't have that intelligence. ”

Ding Ying chuckled, "Think about it, Zheng Qihang, from the beginning when I proposed to use money to solve the problem to when I was so confident when I negotiated with Brother Wang, you should think that I have a certain degree of certainty." I'm not sure I can't be so calm. ”

"When you were negotiating, you looked calm and relaxed, I was convinced from the bottom of my heart, how could I think that you are rich." I say.

"No more. Still rich? You see that I have always bitten 20,000 and not let go, also because I dare not make a breakthrough. I'm still a little empty in my heart. Ding Ying said.

"Hmm."

"Even if you didn't expect me to keep a hand at this time, just now I repeatedly reminded you that you have any classmates and friends, you still can't think of me, it's really an elm head. Have you never considered me a friend or classmate? Ding Ying asked.

"Didn't I think of it?" I asked rhetorically.

"Your tone, with a bit of sarcasm, thought I couldn't hear it?"

"I'm sorry. Can you ask a very personal question," I said, "where did you get all that money?" As I said, it's my mother's pay for seven or eight years of work. ”

"I'm sorry, no comment."
