Chapter 38: The Misunderstanding Is Resolved
The hotel is located in the heart of the city, surrounded by shopping malls. After coming out of the box and leaving the hotel, Li Xia let go of the hand that was holding Jiang Huaizhou.
The two looked at each other and smiled and walked in the square, the square at eight o'clock was crowded, some people were dressed exquisitely and full of famous brands, some people were pajamas with slippers and free and easy, and some people were dressed in suits and leather shoes.
The city is constantly operating, and everyone is so small, but they are very hard, small and hard.
Jiang Huaizhou put his hand in his pocket, waiting for the other party to ask a question, and sure enough, after a while, Li Xia opened his mouth and asked, "You arranged it, right?" What is the purpose? β
Jiang Huaizhou: "I finally asked, you didn't calm down last time." β
He still remembered that when Sean organized a team building before, he didn't mention Li Xia and didn't plan to say it at all, but he took the initiative to talk to Li Xia.
Li Xia: "Because I've improved." β
Jiang Huaizhou: "The gentleman in the suit in your mouth is called Qi Ming, Qi Mu, Qi Ming... Guess what their relationship is? It can't be father and son. β
Li Xia thought about it again and again, but she still felt incredible, and her tone was puzzled: "Are they really two brothers?" Qi Mu never told me that he had a brother, but why did Qi Mu and his brother ask me? β
Jiang Huaizhou: "You can even see that Brother Qi Ming is coming for you." β
Li Xia raised his head: "Of course, you didn't mention sponsorship along the way or at the dinner table, except for chatting about family routines, it was strange that you suddenly asked me to take care of it." β
Jiang Huaizhou nodded: "That's right, Brother Qi Ming and my brother are college classmates, he asked me to come to you this time, mainly to meet you, and secondly, to let me dial you, um... Clear up the misunderstanding between you and Qi Mu. β
When Qi Mu received the admission letter, Qi Ming contacted Jiang Huaizhou and roughly understood the situation of Xia Nan University, but Jiang Huaizhou was not at ease at that time.
When Li Xia inadvertently mentioned Qi Mu before, he just felt that the name was familiar, and when they met at the Swan Monument, they found that Qi Mu was Qi Ming's younger brother, and the two had very similar eyebrows and eyes.
Seeing that Qi Mu and Li Xia made no progress, Qi Ming, who couldn't hold back, had no choice but to find Jiang Huaizhou, but by coincidence, he couldn't write a book, and unexpectedly learned that Jiang Huaizhou not only knew Li Xia, but also the same school department.
Qi Ming probably finished talking to Jiang Huaizhou about the matter, and then he was thinking about meeting Li Xia.
Jiang Huaizhou told Li Xia what happened, and Li Xia pretended to scoff: "I always thought that Senior Huaizhou was upright, but I didn't expect to be so cunning." β
Jiang Huaizhou stopped his steps, turned around and faced Li Xia, with the Ferris wheel shining behind him.
He said, "You may not believe it, but if I go crazy, it's no different from Qi Mu, it's... The person who is behind me is gone, and I don't have the right to be crazy. β
What does this mean? Li Xia didn't understand, she could hear the sadness in the other party's words, and the indulgence that was suppressed in her heart, but she couldn't know the source of the sadness.
People often say that joy and anger are invisible, Jiang Huaizhou is such a person, he always looks polite and polite, and it seems that there will be no sadness.
Just like at this moment, Li Xia can only judge his mood by just a few words, Jiang Huaizhou is as unwavering as usual on the surface.
Jiang Huaizhou looked at Li Xia in the midst of the crowds, and said, "Have you ever wondered why you met Qi Mu in Xiangshan?" Have you ever wondered why Ye Jie suddenly stopped bothering you? That's all I know, but I'm sure there's more to what Qi Mu has done for you. β
Li Xia frowned, she shook her head and said, "I don't really understand what you mean. β
Jiang Huaizhou said directly to the point: "I mean, Xiangshan was not a coincidence that time, Qi Mu went to look for you on purpose, he heard that Sean was unreliable and was afraid that something would happen to you, and then braved the rain to go up the mountain to look for you, I asked Li Wei about this." β
"The reason why Ye Jie didn't trouble you anymore is because Qi Mu handled it for you, and he warned Ye Jie not to harm you again, this matter is what I saw with my own eyes."
"Qi Mu applied for NTU with a score of 985, I haven't figured it out for a long time, but I always feel that it has something to do with you."
Li Xia's eyes went from puzzled to surprised to confused.
It is impossible for her to believe these words in any other person, but when they come out of Jiang Huaizhou's mouth, they are so true that they can no longer be true.
Li Xia hesitated: "But he never told me......"
Jiang Huaizhou: "He never intended to tell you, whether it was then or later. β
"I don't know what other people think, but I can see that he likes you very much, and your place in his heart is far greater than his own."
"You told me that when I was in high school, Qi Muxing was alone and didn't like to be lively, but after coming to NTU, he was always high-profile."
"People don't change suddenly, something must have happened to him during that summer vacation, with his character, he will never take the initiative to tell you, if he doesn't say it, you ask, others may not be able to do it, but you Li Xia must be able to ask the reason."
Li Xia's eyes were red, and she asked, "These words are ......?"
Jiang Huaizhou was categorical: "It's what I want to say, Brother Qi Ming only asked me to explain to you that Qi Mu likes you, and the others didn't say, I'm not a nosy person"
The Ferris wheel behind him kept changing lights, and under the colorful light, Jiang Huaizhou told Li Xia everything he knew and thought.
Li Xia's face was the light projected by the Ferris wheel, and the mess in her heart was unraveled and smoothed out little by little.
It turns out that in many moments she didn't know, Qi Mu has been paying silently, Qi Mu's ridiculous things, why did Qi Mu become like this? Li Xia had never asked, she always felt that the other party shouldn't ask if she didn't say it, but that person was Qi Mu.
As if struck by a bolt of lightning, she said, "I understand." β
After that, he left in a hurry and ran towards Qi Mu.
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, Jiang Huaizhou stood in place and watched the girl leave, he took out his mobile phone and called Li Wei: "Let her contact her." β
hung up the phone, and there was no more Li Xia in the crowd.
Jiang Huaizhou: "If I had known you earlier... How nice..."
All things along the way to Qi Mu gradually became clear, and Li Xia had never been so determined as he was now.
If Qi Mu didn't like her, if Qi Mu was just trying to tease her, how could he confess at the music festival, then the proud person stood on the stage and unswervingly expressed his love despite being teased.
The mobile phone in the bag rang, it was an unfamiliar number belonging to the south city, and Li Xia answered it breathlessly.
The other party: "It's me, Zhao Meihui, the one who hugged Qi Mu from the vending machine before." β
Li Xia slowed down: "Well, is there something wrong?" β
Zhao Meihui on the other end of the phone sighed softly and said, "I did it on purpose that day, I saw you, so I deliberately hugged Qi Mu, I just wanted to disgust Qi Mu, but I didn't expect it to be self-defeating." β
Zhao Meihui: "I've been looking for a chance to make it clear to you since then, I asked Li Wen for your contact information yesterday, Li Wei told me that the time has not come, let me wait, although he is quite brainless, he is a friend of Qi Mu, I believe him." β
Li Xia was about to say thank you, but before the word thank you came out, Zhao Meihui interrupted: "Don't say thank you, I did something wrong in the first place, so be it." β
The phone hung up, and Li Xia paused for a while and continued to run towards Qi Mu.
in the hotel.
Qi Mu was sitting on a chair chatting with Qi Ming, Li Xia pushed open the door without warning, she ran straight towards Qi Mu, leaned over and hooked the other party's neck, and hugged Qi Mu tightly from behind.
Everything happened too suddenly, Qi Mu was stunned for a moment before he had time to rejoice, even if he didn't see Li Xia's face, he could still confirm that the other party was Li Xia.
He patted Li Xia's hand and asked, "Did Jiang Huaizhou bully you?" His tone was full of anger.
Li Xia shook his head.
Qi Mu asked again, "Who bullied you?" β
Li Xia still shook his head.
Qi Mu asked again, "Did I do something?" β
Li Xia still shook his head.
Her chin rested on Qi Mu's neck, crying silently, Li Xia didn't expect why she wanted to cry so much when she saw Qi Mu.
Qi Mu gently broke Li Xia's hand and got up slowly, he stood up and wanted to see the other party's expression clearly, Li Xia was like a magnet, Qi Mu was like a piece of iron, Li Xia sucked on Qi Mu tightly.
Qi Mu finally broke the other party's hand, and the other party hugged his waist again without paying attention, and after breaking free several times to no avail, Qi Mu didn't want to struggle anymore.
He looked down at Li Xia, Li Xia buried his whole face in his arms and was still crying, crying and crying, his body also twitched, and the whimpering sound became louder and louder, Qi Mu was anxious and at a loss, he couldn't ask a reason for asking, he wanted to comfort but didn't know where to start.
His lips kissed Li Xia's head, patted the other party's back with one hand, touched the back of the other's head with the other, and whispered: "If you want to cry, cry, remember to tell me why if you want to cry." β
The door was pushed open again, and Xu Nianyue looked at the people in the box, if it weren't for Qi Ming, she would have thought that she had gone wrong.
Xu Nianyue: "Qi Mu, are you bullying other girls?" β
Qi Ming beckoned to Xu Nianyue from his seat, and booed, signaling the other party to be quiet.
Li Xia moved his head out little by little, Yu Guang timidly glanced at Xu Nianyue, and recognized that the other party was the girl who was talking and laughing with Qi Mu at the door of the hotel before, Li Xia looked up at Qi Mu, her face full of snot and tears.
Qi Mu hugged the other party sideways and took the paper from the table, and then wiped it clean for Li Xia without disgust.
He asked, "Are you still crying?" β
Li Xia shook his head and didn't speak.
Qi Mu rubbed Li Xia's face as if kneading dough, he gently pulled the other party's hand away from his body, and then held Li Xia's hand to face Qi Ming and Xu Nianyue.
Qi Mu: "Let me introduce you, Qi Ming, my brother, Xu Nianyue, my brother's fiancΓ©e, and my sister-in-law." β
Li Xia was full of joy and sorrow, the scene he saw at the door of the hotel during the New Year seemed to be vivid, and the scene of calling Xiaomi to complain at that time also seemed to be vivid, how sad he was at that time, how much he regrets it now.
Co-authoring everything is her own unhappiness for herself, and things are not what she thinks at all, not a girlfriend, but a sister-in-law.
Qi Mu clenched Li Xia's hand, looking at the other party's sluggish expression, Qi Mu asked, "Xia Xia~ Is there something uncomfortable?" β
At this time, Li Xia's mind was in a mess, and there was only one thought that was extremely clear, that is, she wanted to be with Qi Mu.
She stared at Qi Mu with big eyes and turned her head to look at Qi Mu, her eyes were so firm that she seemed to be about to join the party in the next second.
She said, "Let's be together, Qi Mu, okay?" β
