The man looked at her back, thin and lonely, like smoke in the air, which would disappear at any time, he raised his palm, and the smoke was invisible, and it never remained.

Xi walked through the crowd and came to the door of a store, stepping in.

There was only one woman inside, who was looking down and looking through the documents seriously, and when she saw someone coming, a familiar smile appeared on her face: "You are here, sit down." ”

"Hmm." She walked up to her desk and sat down at her desk, bringing a smell of tobacco: "I'll get the teaching certificate." ”

The woman opened the drawer and rummaged through it, finding a certificate, but did not give it to her: "Are you really going?" ”

"Yes."

"Xi Ran he agreed?"

She smoked lightly: "Yes." ”

Disapproval rose in the woman's eyes, and she persuaded: "Qushui Village is a place with poor mountains and bad waters, the people are brutal and feudal, and they still retain the style of the last century, and life is difficult, are you sure you can live comfortably in the past?" I think it's better to let someone else go, preferably a man, didn't the previous Zhou Li say that he was going? Why didn't he come? ”

"I'm enough for one person, there are too many people, and I can startle the snake."

"No matter what you say, I still don't approve of it, or I'll call Xi Ran and ask again."

"No, I'm going to go myself." She snuffed out the cigarette butt, took the certificate, and looked at it carefully: "Lin Xiao, stamp it." ”

The woman had no choice but to do so.

"Where are you staying tonight?" She moved the note in front of her.

"Just find a hotel."

"Why don't you go to my house, Hexi Town is not safe at night, and there are many gangsters."

Xi lightly folded the note and put it into his backpack: "You forgot what I studied." ”

Lin Xiao still hesitated: "You are alone, I still don't feel at ease, go to my house, I have to buy some daily necessities tomorrow and bring them together." ”

"It's ready over there." She stood up, raised her feet and walked out, unexpectedly, she saw a person at the door, Xi lightly pursed her lips, and the hairy hair in her ears was stranded on her neck with the wind, in stark contrast to the snow-white: "It's almost dark, why haven't you gone back yet?" ”

"Are you looking for a place to stay tonight?" Luo Li looked at her, his gaze did not dodge.

"Hmm." She chuckled and said as she walked, "You also said that you didn't have a crush on me." ”

It took a long time for the man to react, and he hurriedly explained: "It's not safe here at night, I'll wait for you to find a place to live before leaving." ”

A flash of red sun brushed the eaves of the street, shining on her ears, staining them crimson and shrouding her with a faint layer of hair.

Xi Qing joked: "If you are not here at night, it is not safe to be different." ”

"I'll find you a reliable hotel."

"It can't be your family, right?"

“……”

Luo Li followed behind, the breeze ruffled his hair, and he still had a cigarette between his fingers, but he didn't want to return it: "There is a Laiyun Hotel in front, you can stay there." ”

"Yes." It doesn't matter where she lives: "Lead the way." ”

The man strode forward, his strong arms grazing hers inadvertently, one strong, the other thin, and he walked in front of her to the right, splitting the crowd for her, glancing at her from time to time.

"You're familiar with this?" She lifted her hair away from her ears and looked around.

Noisy crowds, dilapidated houses, telephone poles overhead, and a few sparrows jumping and chirping.

"Well, this town is the closest to Qushui Village." He stepped over a small puddle of water, and the edge of his army-green shoe, which tore a hole in it, and a little sludge was caught in it.
