Hu Keer's tone was a little weak when he responded to him: "I know, I'll be back soon." ”

As we approach 12 o'clock, it's a new day.

Zhang Yuge took the lead in taking out his mobile phone and proposed: "Meeting is fate, why don't we leave a contact information?" ”

Seeing Xie Yichen's noncommittal look, Ning Sui nodded: "Okay." ”

Hu Keer's eyes lit up even more: "Of course, of course!" ”

Zhang Yuge took her reaction into his eyes, and felt that it was quite normal, after all, the girls from other schools who wanted Ah Chen's contact information could be arranged from Huai to Dali, especially after the college entrance examination, and today is considered their luck.

It was too troublesome to cross back and forth to add friends, so Zhang Yuge first set up a group chat face-to-face, and actively said: "Code 0726." ”

This is today's date, and the group name is tentatively set to this. Ning Sui was the last to join the group, and only Hu Keer's name was familiar to her.

Zhang Yuge's head is like a yellow tanuki cat, fat and looks very aura, he should have raised it himself.

His nickname is "Jin Ge", and he has a self-deprecating emoji with an octopus.

There is also a dark gray avatar in front, with a simple and maverick style, and you can tell who it is at a glance. The nickname is his own name, which is very simple and straightforward.

I didn't expect this trip to have this kind of gain. Hu Keer's fingers clicked a few times on the screen, and he said happily: "Add it." ”

Ning Sui looked at it for a while, didn't move, and after a while, turned off his phone and looked at the rain curtain like a waterfall outside the window.

Zhang Yuge noticed: "Are you going back?" ”

"Hmm."

This rain fell halfway, not too big or small, I forgot to take an umbrella when I came out before, and it was too troublesome to ask Shen Qing to send them over.

"Where do you live?" Ning Sui asked.

Hu Keer tapped the fingers of the message, as if asking her with his eyes what are you doing.

Ning Sui's fingertips pinched lightly under the table, and his eyes moved to the umbrella that Xie Yichen hung on the back of the chair: "We didn't bring it, we want to see if it's going well." ”

Hu Keer thought to himself why she hadn't seen her outside now, and asked someone to send her so tactfully. However, I thought that this plan was okay, so I didn't interject again.

In a dark shadow, the person sitting opposite seemed to raise his eyes, but he didn't speak for a while, but Zhang Yuge came over from the side, and the big speaker reported the name of the hotel.

"Isn't that right next to us?" Hu Keer was pleasantly surprised.

In fact, they are all Internet celebrity hotels, located in the core of the ancient city, this area is expensive, there are not a few open, and it is normal to hit a piece.

The rain outside didn't stop for a while, Ning Sui leaned forward, and the two off-white slender sweater sleeves were next to the table.

She just looked at Xie Yichen and asked, "Okay?" ”

The distance narrowed, and the eyes of the two unexpectedly met in the air.

Half of Xie Yichen's side face was hidden in obscurity, and his dark eyes were like a bottomless pool. After a moment, he nodded nonchalantly, stood up with his coat, and said simply: "Let's go." ”

He was really quite tall, and after Ning Sui stood up, he could only reach his well-defined jaw with his head tilted slightly, and the trim was very clean, and there was no raunchy stubble like that of young boys.

Xie Yichen was holding a very textured black umbrella in his hand, and Hu Keer was sharp when he found a symbol engraved on the handle of the frosted umbrella, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Xie Yichen, what is that?" ”

Zhang Yuge looked at it.

He knew that this umbrella was a gift from the team after Xie Yichen won the award before, and the teacher also said that they could engrave it, and some people wrote a motto or something, but Xie Yichen's was very concise, just a surname with the initials "X.", and the classmates knew it, so they never lost it.

Xie Yichen didn't answer yet, Zhang Yuge spoke quickly, and the sense of pride came up again: "This umbrella is a limited edition of the national training team." ”

Hu Keer felt that Xie Yichen was very cool, even the shape of the umbrella was so cool, and he couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

When they walked out, it was raining outside, Xie Yichen and Zhang Yuge brought an umbrella with them, which should have been played by two girls, but the two umbrellas were not big, and the two boys with a height of one meter and eight meters were obviously too aggrieved.

When Xie Yichen opened the umbrella, Ning Sui happened to be next to her, and naturally fell into the shaded range, she paused for a moment, and then said, "Thank you." ”

In exchange for an understatement, he hummed.

It's fifteen minutes from the bar back.

Walking in the rain with an umbrella was originally a gentle and petty scene, but Hu Keer and Zhang Yuge were quite evasive, as if there was a Mariana Trench in the middle, which made the atmosphere slightly stiff, and the left and right sleeves of the two were wet.

In contrast, Ning Sui was holding his small bag, half a step behind Xie Yichen, and carefully followed him.

Xie Yichen held the handle of the umbrella steadily, did not squint, and did not look at her sideways.

Ning Sui felt that the umbrella seemed to be tilted to her side, but she was afraid of the rain, so she subconsciously got closer to him.

She quickly smelled the kind of scent that spread from him, she couldn't tell what it was, but it was like the smell of dry wood, the deep earthy smell and the sun, which made people think in a trance.

His profile is superior, the bridge of his nose is high, and his jawline appears sharp and cold when he is not smiling, and there is a very different feeling in the hazy rain.

"Xie Yichen."

"Huh?"

His voice was lazy, Ning Sui lowered his head, and his eyelashes blinked slightly: "Your X is actually the X that solves the unknown, right?" ”

Chapter 5: The Devil

The rain dripped on the canopy with a moist crunch. The tide is coming, and the ancient city is green and fresh, with a kind of quaint beauty. The summer nights, which were originally vibrant, were much cooler because of the stormy weather.

The voice and the sound of the rain blended together, and it was difficult to hear clearly. Such an environment somewhat blocks people's ability to perceive.

At this time, a tricycle was passing by, and there happened to be a small puddle on the ground, and suddenly there was a splash.

Xie Yichen grabbed Ning Sui's arm and pulled her to the side behind her, blocking it: "Be careful." ”

Ning Sui saw a starry dark mud watermark falling on his clothes: "I'm sorry, your clothes seem to be wet." ”

Xie Yichen didn't care too much, and said slowly: "It's okay, just go back and replace it." ”

His fingers were still on her forearm, and although he touched the thin sweater outside, Ning Sui could still feel his slender and powerful joints, and his wrist seemed to be slightly hot.

She peeked at him, but Xie Yichen quickly let go of her hand and asked, "What did you just say?" ”

Hu Keer and Zhang Yuge walked quickly in front of them because they were a little embarrassed, as if they were walking two people and three legs, revealing a hint of funny in their eccentricity.

It didn't seem to be a suitable time to chat, Ning Sui followed Xie Yichen's steps a few steps faster, and said calmly: "I said, is the X engraved on your umbrella in the equation?" ”

Xie Yichen turned his head to look at her at this time, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "This is indeed the explanation." How did you come up with it? ”

He probably didn't really remember her, but it was normal to think about it, just a passerby who had a few encounters earlier and said something.

There was rain falling on the back of her hand, the cold air was damp, Ning Sui didn't care, just raised her eyelashes slightly: "I heard that you are learning math competition, and I have also studied it, so I subconsciously thought of it." ”

For this answer, Xie Yichen didn't show much surprise, only lightly hooked his lower lip: "That's quite a coincidence." ”

The two walked side by side for a hundred meters, and Ning Sui realized that he should be politely taking care of her walking speed, not walking fast, pursed her lips, and her feet tightened.

She had something she wanted to know: "So...... Why did you give up the national team? ”

In fact, this is a bit of a private problem, and there are a lot of hidden secrets guessed by the outside world, including a few friends who have played well, all of whom think that his parents who are a good couple in front of the media camera have a problem with their relationship, which leads to his bad state in his third year of high school.

Xie Yichen glanced at her sideways, and didn't seem to care too much: "There are elders in the family who are sick and want to spend more time with the elderly." ”

"Ah, is it serious?"

Xie Yichen paused and didn't say much: "It's a chronic disease." ”

"Oh."

It's not good to tell him again, "I also have elders in my family who are sick, what a coincidence", Ning Sui didn't think of comforting words, and listened to his lazy and upward tail note: "And I can't talk about giving up, I just entered the training team, whether I can pass the test or not." ”

“……”

This is a bit too modest and frivolous.

The second stage of the training camp is 15 into 6, and he easily killed all the way in front of him, and he was afraid of the last point?

Ning Sui stared at the ground, and couldn't help but bury his soft velvet head: "Do you think that the trainees are already qualified to escort Qingda, so it's a waste of time to continue." ”

Xie Yichen suddenly said at this time: "How do I feel, you seem to know me very well." ”

His tone was slightly unclear, and Ning Sui's breath paused for a moment, and he quickly replied.

"Because you've been pretty famous lately? There are a lot of rumors in the market. ”

"Oh, that's it." Xie Yichen's tone was slow and long, and he asked meaningfully, "Then I was in the bar just now, and the lights were so flickering, how could you recognize me at a glance." ”

“……”

He turned his head to the side and looked at her carefully, "Have you seen me before?" ”

The smell of woody incense spread again, and the low magnetic voice seemed to be swirling in my heart.

The young man's fine black hair fell on his forehead, his low-hanging eyelashes were like crow feathers, his eyebrows and eyes were particularly handsome under the rendering of the falling street lamps, and Ning Sui's fingertips curled up slightly.

But after a while, she raised her clean and clear eyes, looked at him without avoiding it, and replied seriously: "No, I heard Zhang Yuge call your name." ”

I've just seen the news reports and know your name. I heard someone call you, so I got the right number. There's nothing wrong with the logic.

The eyes of the two collided in the air again.

Today they ran into them a lot of times. They looked at each other, as if they were secretly competing.

Xie Yichen was more than a head taller than her, a little condescending, and naturally lowered his eyelashes.

The rain in front of him, the dampness that came to his face was a little stale, and Ning Sui's heart was in a trance. Before he could say anything, he heard someone shouting in front of him.

— and indeed his name.

Zhang Yuge and Hu Keer held umbrellas, which had become two small vertical lines in the rain and fog, and Zhang Yuge pulled his throat: "Master, you are pulling a cart from an old cow, do you dare to slow down?!" The rain I've been waiting for is almost stopping! ”

The fifteen-minute road was pulled out by them for half an hour, and his tone sounded a little annoyed and angry.

These two hotels are next to the street, facing each other, Hu Keer and Zhang Yuge don't know how long they have been waiting at the door, Xie Yichen walked over with Ning Sui unhurriedly, and laughed insincerely: "I'm sorry." ”

Ning Sui observed that Zhang Yuge's expression showed a hint of grievance that dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.

The four of them looked at each other - the rooms here are all B&B-style bungalow suites, with an open-air yard, and there is a section of road along the deep alley, do you want to go in?

Ning Sui is wearing a beige slim-fitting thin sweater today, a ladylike dark pleated long skirt, and a white doll rabbit bag cross-body, which is used to hold mobile phones and other small items. It's a plush, and it will be very troublesome if it gets wet.

Xie Yichen glanced at her nonchalantly.

Ning Sui tugged at the strap of her bag with her fingertips, and was about to speak, when she heard someone call her name aloud: "Ning Sui." ”

Shen Qing ran out of the alley with a big umbrella, and still carried a small folding umbrella in his hand: "Mr. Zhuo is uncomfortable, let me come out to pick you up-" Seeing the two pairs of people standing a little nervously, he was stunned for a moment: "This is?" ”
