CHAPTER XXXI
By the time Xiao Ximing and Zhao Tang came down with their backpacks, Zhou Hou had already filled up the car with gas and even set a place for them to navigate, it was the hotel where Mo Jingjing and they were staying now, I have to say that Zhou Hou is indeed very capable of sitting in this position now, especially in the matter of figuring out people's hearts.
The car started, and it gradually disappeared as it went farther and farther away in Zhou Hou's eager gaze, Zhou Hou breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally straightened up again after a long time.
Following the navigation's instructions, the two of them arrived at their destination before sunset.
"What the hell is this place, backward as the eighties, Mo Jingjing, what are they doing here?" Zhao Tang got out of the car, looked around, carried his backpack, and muttered while following Xiao Ximing into the hotel.
In the warm greeting at the front desk, the two took out their documents and prepared to check in.
Zhao Tang handed over his ID card, and said to the little sister at the front desk as if he were natural: "We have two friends who also stayed in your hotel today, one of them is called Mo Jingjing and the other is called Yang Xu, you check where they live, and put our room next door to them."
The little girl at the front desk didn't think that the handsome guy in front of her was talking nonsense, of course, she tried her best to meet the guest's request: "Okay, you wait for me to check it for you."
The trick succeeded, Zhao Tang turned his head, and the thief smiled and asked Xiao Ximing to squeeze his eyebrows, Xiao Ximing gave him a rare look of appreciation, and felt that it was not completely useless to bring these two goods.
After the two rolled their eyes, the little sister at the front desk also found Mo Jingjing's room number and opened a room for each of them at the door, and after taking the room card, Zhao Tang pulled Xiao Ximing and ran to the room.
When he arrived at the door, Zhao Tang was not in a hurry to enter the room, but sneakily leaned on the opposite door and tried to listen to the movement inside, Xiao Ximing didn't bother to care about him, and only after opening the door with the room card did he grab his backpack with one hand and carry the person in.
"No, boss, why are you arresting me in, I'm helping you find out about the situation!" Zhao Tang struggled unwillingly, and wanted to go back to listen to it.
Xiao Ximing pressed him with one hand and closed the door with the other: "Don't be ashamed."
"Okay, I'm embarrassed, so what do you say? You can't knock openly, right? Good intentions are not rewarded! Zhao Tang complained dissatisfiedly, threw the backpack on the bed, and the whole person lay down.
Putting the backpack aside, Xiao Ximing sat down on the sofa, and then said unhurriedly: "They always have to go out to eat, just wait."
"How long do you have to wait? What if they order takeout? Zhao Tang felt a little unreliable.
"No, it won't." Xiao Ximing still has this point, not to mention that this hotel does not have a restaurant, this place is so backward that it is not like there is a takeaway industry, and with Mo Jingjing's personality, it is impossible to still eat takeout in the room regardless of Yang Xu.
"Okay, then I'll help you keep an eye on the other side." Zhao Tang jumped up from the bed, took two steps to the cat's eye at the door, and began to stare at the opposite door.
In fact, this hotel has no soundproofing effect, as long as there is movement on the opposite door, you can hear them in the house without staring, there is really no need to lie there.
However, Xiao Ximing didn't bother to care about him anymore, it was good to let him have something to do, so that he was bored and came to quarrel with himself again. took out his notebook and took advantage of the time Xiao Ximing planned to write some more papers, the papers were already halfway written, and if he tried hard, he would be able to finish it tonight.
The room was quiet for a while, except for the sound of keyboard tapping and Zhao Tang's occasional impatient scratching of the door.
I don't know how long it took, there was finally a movement on the opposite door, and at the same time as Zhao Tang whispered, Xiao Ximing had already closed his notebook and walked to the door, hearing the opposite door, Mo Jingjing closed the door of her room, walked two steps, and knocked on the door next door.
The two glanced at each other, and Zhao Tang immediately opened the door decisively, and did not forget to pretend to say: "What should we eat?" I don't know what special ...... they have on their side, huh! Mo Jingjing! Jingjing! Why are you here? ”
Xiao Ximing looked at Zhao Tang's exaggerated performance, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and at the same time, he helplessly cooperated with a puzzled gaze to look at Mo Jingjing, who was stunned.
Mo Jingjing looked at the two people who should not have appeared here, and was a little dumbfounded for a while: "Zhao Tang, Xiao Shao!" Why are you in there?! ”
"Didn't I stay in the hospital for a long time? The boss took me out to play for two days, and I heard that there was a beautiful river here, so I came over to play, what about you? What are you doing here? Zhao Tang, who had already made an excuse, opened his mouth and said, not forgetting to inquire about her purpose by the way.
Coming all the way to this backwoods to play? What a wonderful hobby! Mo Jingjing muttered to herself, opened her mouth and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Yang Xu, who opened the door behind her: "Zhao Tang, Xiao Shao?!" How did you end up here? ”
Ignoring Yang Xu's question, Zhao Tang, who played the hidden, instantly stepped up, shaking his hand and pointing back and forth between Mo Jingjing and Yang Xu: "You guys...... You guys...... How could they be together? So you ....... ”
The expression was as disbelieving as if he had seen some shocking secret, Xiao Ximing thought that he couldn't make such an exaggerated performance, so he had to keep a wooden face, maintain his usual expressionless face, and quietly watch the performance of his second brother.
"No, not what you think, we're just ...... It's just that....... Yang Xu blushed and hurriedly waved his hand to deny it, but he didn't know how to explain it for a while, so he looked at Mo Jingjing frequently, hoping that she could think of a good excuse.
"Just what?" Xiao Ximing, who had never spoken, opened his mouth at this time, but he said it to Mo Jingjing.
Mo Jingjing had a little headache, and she didn't know where to start for a while, so she had to say: "I'll explain to you later, let's go eat first, have you eaten?" Let's go with it if you don't have one. ”
Xiao Ximing looked at her deeply: "Okay."
After speaking, he retracted his gaze and walked forward first, without looking at her again. Mo Jingjing was keenly aware of his displeasure, but she didn't know why, she looked at his back in confusion but was patted on the shoulder by Zhao Tang before she had time to think about it.
"Gone, what's the fuss?" After a while, Zhao Tang was in a very happy mood, and walked with the wind: "We are really destined to meet for thousands of miles!" The world is so big, how can I meet you so coincidentally! ”
Mo Jingjing smiled and didn't speak, and walked out.
Under the guidance of Mo Jingjing, intentionally or unintentionally, several people entered a restaurant, and when they took their seats, Zhao Tang consciously sat next to Yang Xu, Yang Xu felt very strange but couldn't tell why he felt this way, glanced at Zhao Tang but didn't say anything, Mo Jingjing didn't feel anything wrong, and sat down next to Xiao Ximing very comfortably.
In this way, under the unintentional action of two people with intentions, Mo Jingjing and Yang Xu sat on the seats farthest apart, although they were still on the same table no matter how far away, Xiao Ximing was very satisfied with this arrangement, even if Yang Xu, who was sitting opposite him and made him hate, he couldn't stop a trace of joy in his heart.
