Chapter 20: The First Arrival

The afterglow of the setting sun is like a layer of gold dust scattered on the earth, dazzling and charming, and the afterglow of the sun is still in the air.

Li Minghui took Li Xiao in the city and waited until the sun was about to set, and then he began to walk back, and it was already more than six o'clock when he returned to the compound. Every family began to prepare dinner, and there were children running around on the road, and some old people who were with the army were sitting under the big trees to enjoy the shade, and everything was full of energy

"Uncle Li, where are you here," a tall young man with a hint of unruliness between his eyebrows walked up and greeted Li Minghui

"Chengwu, I have something to do in the city, and I have ordered food, where are you going?"

"I'll go to Xu's house to find him something, who is Uncle Li?"

"Oh, come and laugh, I'll introduce you, this is Lin Chengwu, who is also going to be in the same school as you this year, Chengwu, this is my eldest daughter Li Xiao, who will help her uncle take care of her uncle in school in the future."

Li Xiao stretched out his hand and said hello to Lin Chengwu

"Uncle, don't worry, no one dares to bully Li Xiao with me" Lin Chengwu played a package ticket, you must know that he was a campus bully in middle school, and there was no reason why he would not be able to protect a little girl in high school

"Okay, with your words, uncle will rest assured, you go and make promises"

Li Xiao looked at Lin Chengwu's departing back and thought to himself where he had seen it, it was so familiar, but he couldn't remember it

Li Minghui looked at his daughter in a daze, and asked a little curiously, "Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking?"

"Oh, Dad, I just think Lin Chengwu is a little familiar, but I haven't seen him before," Li Xiao quickly came back to his senses and replied a little puzzled

"It's not that there are people who look similar all over the world, where have you probably seen someone who looks like Cheng Wu?" Li Minghui disagreed

"Hmm, maybe, who is this Lin Chengwu Dad?"

"He is the youngest son of Regiment Commander Lin, and he will enter the army to exercise every holiday, and he is a child with very good abilities in all aspects, and only Xu Xu is on par with him in the compound."

"Promise?" Li Xiao remembered that the person Lin Chengwu said he was going to find just now seemed to be called Promise

"Well, Xu Yu is the only son of Chief of Staff Xu, he is one year older than you like Cheng Wu, and he is also one year higher this year, and he is one high in the city" Li Minghui let his daughter know more about the situation of her peers in the compound, so he simply walked to the stone bench under the big tree on the side of the road and sat down, planning to tell his daughter what he knew

After Li Minghui and Li Xiao finished speaking, the people who were playing in the cool on the road had already gone home to eat, and the two of them saw that the time was so late, and they no longer delayed to speed up their pace and go home.

When I got home, the meal had already been prepared, and as soon as Li Yan saw Li Minghui, he immediately came over to be coquettish, and asked if he was tired and had bought her something delicious or something.

Li Xiao said hello to her grandfather and Wang Xiaomei, seeing that Li Yan didn't have time to pay attention to her, she simply ran to the bathroom to take a bath. It was so hot that day, and she couldn't stand the smell of sweat after running outside for a day

When Li Xiao came out after washing, everyone had a good meal, and was told by Li Gen and Li Minghui that Li Xiao couldn't stand what he said, and immediately promised that he would never miss the meal next time.

The family was sitting together chatting after packing up, and Qian Gang, who had seen him during the day, brought his daughter Qian Xiaoling to visit the door

"Lao Li, I think that with our friendship, Uncle Li is here, and I should also come to visit, no, this girl, I heard that there is a girl as big as her, and she has to come with her, saying that she wants to get to know each other well," Qian just finished speaking, and without waiting for Li Minghui to speak, he greeted Li Gen with a bottle of wine

"Uncle Li, my name is Qian Gang, Minghui and I are born and died together, don't treat me as an outsider and call me Xiao Qian, this bottle of wine is for you to drink"

"Xiaoqian, since you said that you and Minghui are lifelong friends, what are you doing with these false gifts" Li Gen immediately resigned, you must know that the family is not rich in these years, and it may be half a year to drink a bottle of wine

The adults have their communication, and Li Xiao and Qian Xiaoling feel that they will meet late

Qian Xiaoling has a very feminine name, but the owner of the name is completely a tomboy, with a student's head and a neutral face, with a big grin between words and deeds

When Li Xiao saw Qian Xiaoling for the first time, she felt that this girl was so energetic, and she felt that she had inexhaustible energy. In fact, it is true, from the moment Qian Xiaoling sat down, her questions were one after another, what do you like to do, what do you like to eat, what do you like to read, what martial arts novels do you like to read

Well, when she secretly asked Li Xiao what kind of boy she liked and when she wanted to fall in love, Li Xiao finally couldn't hold back

Kiss! You're only fifteen, okay? Well, that's not the point, the point is that it's the 80s, right, are you so out of step with the times?

Qian Xiaoling looked at Li Xiao's cute expression and couldn't help laughing

"Sisters, I'm scared, I'm deliberately testing you"

"Temptation?" Li Xiao looked at Qian Xiaoling in a daze, feeling that the two of them might not be in the same dimension

"Well, that's right, my old man came home this morning and said that you just arrived at the compound, and you don't know anything about us, and we're going to go to a school in the future, so you asked me to come and play with you more, oh, and you want me to treat you as a sister."

After saying such a big thing, Qian Xiaoling was also thirsty, picked up the teacup in front of her, and drank a large cup, wiped her mouth casually, and continued without waiting for Li Xiao to speak

"Am I such a casual person, if I can't come to a girl, I'll treat her as a sister, then how many sisters do I have, so I'm going to test you, if you twist and pinch the little family, or if it's not the same, I won't care about you."

Li Xiao looked at the girl in front of her embarrassedly, thinking that it was really enough, she pulled the corners of her mouth and asked

"And what is the result of your temptation, do you think I am qualified to be your friend?"

"What do you say, if you are not qualified enough, I won't talk so much nonsense with you, although you are a little squeamish, but you can rest assured that your sister will cover you in the future, and you will call my sister in the future, do you know" Qian Xiaoling looked at her quite seriously after speaking

Squeamish? Do you still call you sister? Girl, are you thinking too much? Li Xiao only wanted to give her two words

"Huh"

"What are you doing, call Sister Sheng to listen" Qian Xiaoling was anxious

"Classmate, delusion is a disease that can be cured!" After Li Xiao finished speaking with pity, he didn't care what Qian Xiaoling said in the back, and ran to the adults' table to listen to them

"Sister, have you finished talking to Sister Xiaoling?" Li Yan had been listening to them by Li Minghui's side, and when he saw Li Xiao coming over and sitting down, he asked

"Well, let's also come over to hear the stories of heroes on the battlefield," Li Xiao looked at Qian Xiaoling, who came over, and beckoned her to sit beside her

Li Yan watched the intimate interaction between Li Xiao and Qian Xiaoling, and couldn't help lowering his eyes to cover the emotions inside. You must know that she and Qian Xiaoling have known each other for six years, but they have always been face-saving.

Originally, according to the friendship between Li Minghui and Qian Gang, they shouldn't be like this, but I don't know why Qian Xiaoling hasn't paid much attention to her, and she doesn't play with other girls in the compound, but instead stays with the boys in the compound led by Lin Chengwu and Xu Yu all day long.

If it had always been like this, Li Yan would have admitted it, but why did Li Xiao come here for a day and be so close to Qian Xiaoling just after they met, she was so unconvinced!
