"It's business, it's convenient, and you're welcome to come at any time."

But unexpectedly, it was not Qi Yue who replied to her, but Qi Kai, who instantly appeared online after she sent this message.

It's almost a second back—

Immediately after, three expressions of Qi Yue's shocked expression were displayed in the dialog box!

A small bookstore on the second floor, located at the intersection of a not busy street, is filled with a young man dressed as a clerk.

"Brother, was it you just now? You've not been stolen......

"Nonsense, who can steal my number!"

The man who was sitting in a corner of the bookstore and was working quickly on the keyboard replied without raising his head.

The clerk was dressed as Qi Yue, who had appeared outside the Shangyou Hotel to rescue Qi Yue.

And the other clerk in front of the computer, who is also the store manager, is his brother, Qi Kai.

Qi Yue glanced at his brother several times and confirmed that it was him.

"Brother, are you possessed by someone, haven't you never participated in group chats!"

Qi Kai simply held the notebook in front of him and moved to the other side of the table, too lazy to take care of him!

At this time, the group message box with a blank name flashed again, accompanied by Didi's voice, causing Qi Yue to open his phone again.

"I've stepped out of the subway, are there only two of you? Drink something, I'll bring it by the way! ”

There is just a tea shop at the entrance of the subway, although the grade is not very high, but at this time it is not only full of people, but also four or five people queue up at the door to take out, it seems that the business should be very good.

"Sister Xiaoxu, you can come and buy something to drink, it's so polite!"

"I just want a glass of ice!"

Qi Yue's fingers flew and he sent out two messages.

Immediately afterwards, he received a blaming glance from Qi Kai.

After a few more seconds, Qi Xu, who had not received Qi Kai's message for a long time, sent a message again.

"What about the others?"

"My brother?"

"My brother doesn't need it!"

But before Qi Yue's second message was sent, the mobile phone was taken away by Qi Kai, and at the same time, Qi Kai sent a sentence in the message box.

"It's the same as yours."

"Okay, then you guys wait a minute, I'll be over soon!"

After Ji Xu finished sending the message, he followed the people in line in front of him.

She was so lucky, two of the people in the queue in front of her were lovers, and only the girl asked for a drink, and the other seemed to be in a hurry, and suddenly received a call and left in a hurry.

In this way, she only needs to wait for the person in front of her to buy it, and it will be her turn!

However, just when the person in front got the drink and was about to leave, he was suddenly inserted in front by a mother and daughter!

"Boss, we want two cups of strawberry panna cotta!"

The little girl who was being led turned around and grimaced at the long line, "slightly ......"

Before she could say anything, a couple in line behind her muttered dissatisfaction.

"What kind of quality, everyone is lined up, why let them ...... first"

The little girl's mother seemed to have very good ears, and she took out her mobile phone and was about to pay, when she heard someone talking about her, turned her head and yelled.

"That's better than some people chewing their tongues behind their backs! Don't you see that I'm a woman with a child, didn't your parents teach you to learn to be polite? ”

"Lao Tzu only knows that Lao Tzu's fists are very hard!"

The man in the couple was about to roll up his sleeves as he spoke, and it seemed that he was about to wave his fist in the next second.

"Why, you still want to hit someone in broad daylight? Someone's coming, someone is going to beat someone! ”

The girl's mother's roar caused passers-by to stop.

"Who is going to beat you, Lao Tzu is still afraid of dirty his hands!"

Ji Xu, who had been fiddling with his mobile phone, turned around, only to find that the man was a young man with a knife tattooed on his arm, and the girl pulled him to signal him not to be impulsive.

"Our mother and daughter are so pitiful, we can be bullied on the street......"

The girl's mother didn't seem to want to let him go, and continued to shout, causing dissatisfaction among the people in the queue behind.

"Girl, you say, did they run ahead of you and cut in line! Don't let people say if you dare to do it! ”

The man was very annoyed by the girl's mother's noise, and immediately asked at the expectancy.

"Three glasses of ice coke, which guest is it!"

At this time, the front desk brother suddenly shouted at the crowd with a bag.

Qi Xu suddenly smiled at the girl's mother and said, "I'm sorry, my good, please let me!" ”

The girl's mother was immediately angry, "Why did you do it for her first, she was obviously behind!" ”

The little brother at the front desk explained kindly while handing him three cups of packaged Coke.

"I'm sorry, the drinks in our store are made in the order in which they are ordered, this lady has already ordered a delivery and pick-up order, if you don't plan to order, please let the guests in the back order first!"

"I'll order!"

Hearing what the little brother at the front desk said, the girl's mother suddenly glared at Qi Xu's back angrily.

Although she can rely on herself to cut the queue with her children, she didn't order after all, and there is really no reason to stop the tea shop from taking delivery orders first.

Even if she was justified in cutting the line, there was no reason not to let the family take away the ordered drinks, so she could only hold her breath.

And the people who are dissatisfied with the two women in the back are also comfortable physically and mentally, just cut in line, and force words, this kind of person can't talk nonsense with her, just place an order first and pick up the goods first, even if she looks at it and is in a hurry, it's useless!

However, many people have gradually reacted, why didn't they think that they could use the way of delivery and self-pickup to move the order number forward, how much time can be saved!

After leaving, the tea shop launched a pre-booked mini program the next day, and there was no dispute in front of the store because of the queue.

Qi Xu almost trotted to the small bookstore, and at this time, there were only three or two people reading quietly in the bookstore.

Because it is the last station of the subway, there are no big shopping malls around, and the residential buildings are not very clustered, so unless it is some people who really like to read quietly, few people come here.

As the name suggests, the books in this small bookstore are not the bestsellers of today, they are either some historical books, or some popular literary books of the last century, and some anecdotes and anecdotes that are almost no longer published in the market......

In today's inflated online age, such a small bookstore has little appeal to customers, and sometimes it is difficult to wonder what they rely on to keep the bookstore running.

"Sister Xiaoxu, you are finally here, I have been waiting for you with Brother Kai for a long time!"

Qi Yue spoke, but his eyes did not take off the three cups of Coke in Qi Xu's hand.

"Where are you and Qi Kai today?"

Qi Xu didn't dismantle him, and handed him the two drinks in his hand.

"Xiaohua went to buy a new book, but she didn't ......"

Xiaohua is another clerk in the bookstore, like the two Qi brothers, they are ordinary clerks during the day and do their own things at night, but in the eyes of Qi Xu, Xiaohua is a little girl in her early twenties, even a year younger than her, and this kind of work should be done by two big men.

"You two men, let a little girl do this?"

Qi Xu was a little troubled by the behavior of these two straight men, and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"Sister Xiaoxu, it's not like you don't know that there is no shortage of books in our bookstore......"

Meaning, Xiaohua didn't really go to buy new books anymore.

Period nodded clearly, didn't ask any more questions, and followed him to the depths of the bookstore.

The bookstore only has two floors, but the design is very clever, whether it is on the first floor or the second floor, it is a curved path, if there are not many people, you can't see anyone else three meters away, so it wasn't until you walked to the first floor of the stairs that you saw Qi Kai who was typing in front of the notebook.

At the same time that he saw him, he also raised his head and stopped what he was doing.

When Qi Xu met his gaze, his eyes were instantly filled with a thick fog......

She was very sure that this was the first time she had seen the legendary "Great God" Qi Kai, although she had had phone and online contact before, but she usually saw Qi Yue and Xiaohua more often, and she also knew that there was a "Brother Xuan" in their team who had never shown up, but ......

Qi Kai looked at her with a very unusual gaze, as if they had known each other for a long time and had an indescribable connection, but when she wanted to see something through the other party's gaze, Qi Kai instantly hid all her emotions, and when she looked at it again, it was like seeing her for the first time, and even a little more surprised.

"Hello, I'm Qi Xu, it's the first time we met, I didn't bother you, right?"

Out of politeness, Qi Xu still smiled and took the initiative to greet him.

The loss in Qi Kai's eyes flashed, but this time it was not captured by Qi Xu.

"No, welcome at any time!"

Qi Kai also smiled back, but in Qi Xu's opinion, he might as well not smile, because although that face looked harmless, he always felt a little stiff when he laughed.

After all, her company is also engaged in the Internet, so she can understand that those technical men in the company crackle at the computer every day, and sometimes when she has a work task to go to them or send them company benefits, those people smile like this reluctantly, she knows that it is their heartfelt laughter, but it looks greatly discounted on the face.

"You're busy, I'll just take a look......"

Seeing that Qi Kai's hand was still on the keyboard, but he didn't continue to move, Qi Xu felt that he had disturbed him, and hurriedly apologized.

"No ......" Qi Kai just wanted to say that it didn't matter, he could accompany her, but there were suddenly two warnings from Didi on the notebook, and he had to sigh helplessly, "Okay, let Qi Yue accompany you." ”

Qi Xu didn't think so, how old she is, just read a book casually, and she doesn't need to be accompanied.

As for Qi Yue, he didn't know where he ran after he took the Coke, and Qi Xu didn't bother to call him, and shuttled aimlessly through the bookshelves.

Until I was attracted by the name of a book -

"Seeing words is like faces"!

Not only because the genre of the book seems out of place among many books, but also because of its content, its subtitle is "Luxury under Internet Social Interaction", which obviously refers to the almost "lost" way of communicating letters.

Just as her hand was about to touch the book cover less than a centimeter, Qi Yue suddenly came out of nowhere and called out to stop her.

"Sister Xu, don't move!"

Qi Xu's outstretched hand shook violently, and he froze in place like that.

Don't you want to be so scary, it scares her heart out of the pang!

"What, there's a mechanism in this book?"

Qi Yue was stunned for a moment, touched the back of his head and replied with some embarrassment.

"No, no, how can there be a mechanism...... It's because the book forgot to take it off the shelves, its publishing house closed down many years ago, you see the book is dusty, and no one reads it......"

"I think the name of the book looks interesting, as for the closure of the publishing house, how many of the books in your room are the ones that the publishing house has not closed down......"

At least that's what she thinks, when she didn't disappear before, her father was the deputy editor-in-chief of a publishing house, and if she hadn't adjusted the direction of her business in time in line with the general trend, I am afraid that she would have become a member of the army of bankruptcies.

"Ahem cough ......" was ruthlessly exposed, Qi Yue was suddenly a little embarrassed, "Then Sister Xiaoxu, come here to take a look, there are seats here, the customer who made an appointment to do a linkage activity with our bookstore has arrived, I'll go and entertain it first!" ”

The reason why he suddenly interrupted Qi Xu was naturally not because of this, but he couldn't think of a better explanation for a while, seeing that Qi Xu was holding on to the book without giving up, he had no choice but to say no more, and led her to the end of the bookshelf, where there was a small square table and two chairs, which were for the reader to read.

Qi Xu motioned for him to get busy, but he didn't think too much about it, and soon all his energy was attracted by the content of the book.

The whole book is a summary of almost forty or fifty letters in the past ten years, some long and some short, some from famous writers, some from unknown juniors, some between lovers, some between relatives, and even gossip between girlfriends......

The contents seemed like a simple list, but each letter seemed very intimate to her, as if it were ...... She had exchanged letters with others in the same way!
