The summer vacation passed quickly, and it was September of another year to go back to school in the capital.

My aunt began to prepare for the opening of a new store in the fondant cake studio, and she had to discuss the decoration style and cost with the designer, and she had to draw up the business plan of the new store.

Occasionally she stayed overnight, she still habitually had difficulty falling asleep in the empty mansion, and she couldn't sleep well when she fell asleep, and occasionally when she woke up at night, Tang Qi would get up from the bed, sneak into the dim living room where the needle could be heard, and stand by the floor-to-ceiling window to look down.

The lush greenery on the third-floor terrace is hidden in the night, leaving only neatly groomed inky outlines.

At this time, at a certain moment, she will suddenly be anxious about the progress of her scholarship application.

It's not because the money in her hand is not enough, but because she remembered that someone had said to her on the phone, "A word is a certainty".

In fact, when school first started, Tang Qi's money was a little tight.

In order to ease her mother's burden, she began to bear all her tuition and miscellaneous expenses and living expenses. After she paid the tuition fees at the beginning of the school year, the children's sports organization that she had worked part-time informed her that business was not very good and that she did not need to hire any more people to help.

It was not easy to find a stable part-time job, Tang Qi wasted some thoughts, and in the end, it was Lu Qian who helped contact her Fa Xiao, and was able to solve the problem.

The self-media account they made now has some advertisements, and there is a special shortage of manpower, Tang Qi is smart and responsible, and has become a small assistant in Lu Qianfa's small team.

Lu Qian's name is Sun Xu, and the family has been demolished to get a sum of money, and her life is quite moisturizing, she engages in hobbies on weekdays, and the rest of the time is used to eat and drink.

Sun Xu is a very righteous person, but he feels a little overly enthusiastic, and every time he finishes shooting, he has to have a dinner.

After Tang Qi became the team's assistant, every time he had a dinner, Sun Xu would make an appointment with Tang Qi and Lu Qian and ask them if they would come.

Tang Qi is not interested in those noisy dinners with cigarettes and alcohol, and she also has to take care of her academic performance, and her time can't be spent on entertainment, she doesn't go often, and only occasionally she is in a hurry, so she goes to have a meal and help order songs in KTV.

It was Christmas, and they had a class meeting, so they didn't go to a part-time job.

After the class meeting, Lu Qian received a call from Sun Xu, saying that the filming had ended, it was a holiday again, and the team planned to get together.

The dinner was held near their school, and they were asked if they would like to come over and eat together.

As soon as the class meeting ended, the corridor was full of classmates, taking advantage of the noisy environment, Lu Qian directly teased Sun Xu: "It's almost there." ”

Sun Xu was giggling over there, pretending not to understand, and still asking Lu Qian: "What is almost there?" Hey, why don't you come to the dormitory, it's crowded, we can sing after eating, I still have a coupon for one hour to reduce the hour's fee, it's useless. ”

"Others can't see it, do you really think I can't see it, we grew up together."

Lu Qian glanced at Tang Qi, who was walking with Chen Yiqi behind her, and said with a smile: "Do you really want to invite me and Qiqi to dinner and sing?" ”

The person on the phone may be a little embarrassed, hehe twice, begging Lu Qian for help.

Lu Qian agreed, and also expressed her position first: "When the freshman year started, someone was already chasing Tang Qi, I don't think she has much contact with any boy, and she may not want to fall in love." I can help you make an appointment, but you have to pay attention to proportion, if people don't mean that, you don't have that kind of stalking scene to embarrass me. ”

Sun Xu agreed: "No problem, I'm that kind of reckless man, I still know how to look at words and looks." ”

Tang Qi didn't know anything about their phone call, but she couldn't resist the warm invitation of her roommate, plus the festival, there was that kind of joyful atmosphere around the school, Chen Yiqi also wanted to relax, so she went with her.

There were no strangers at the dinner table, and everyone was quite happy to talk and laugh.

Christmas songs were played in the store, and the waiters wore red hats and held event leaflets to tell them that they would receive limited cold dishes and fruit plates if they spent more than 500 yuan.

The boys drank a lot of beer in the grilled fish restaurant, and by the time they switched to KTV and drank it again, they were already somewhat drunk.

After the spring incident, Chen Yiqi has been feeling uncomfortable, it is difficult to come out to play, and her roommate is by her side, and she also made an exception and drank two bottles of beer.

Tang Qi can't drink or sing, so he sat in the corner after arriving at KTV, and even clicked on his mobile phone to memorize a few English words.

Later, Lu Qian called and said that Chen Yiqi had vomited, and asked Tang Qi to go over and send them some tissues.

"Bring another bottle of mineral water, I'll have to rinse Kiki's mouth."

"Okay, I'll go over right away."

The bathroom was at the end of the corridor, and Tang Qi ran in with a paper pump and mineral water to help.

I was in such a hurry that I didn't hold my phone and put it on the sofa in the box.

It happened that on this day, it was close to nine o'clock in the evening, and Wen Bailing made a phone call to Tang Qi.

The dinner started early, when a group of people were already drunk, and the mobile phone was bright and ringing on the sofa, which was seen by the boy in charge of photography in the team.

The boy was drunk and dizzy, thinking that what was placed next to Sun Xu must be Sun Xu's mobile phone, so he put the mobile phone to Sun Xu's ear after answering the phone: "Brother, you are calling!" ”

Wen Bailing's mobile phone turned on the speaker, held it in front of her, and just wanted to say "merry Christmas" to Tang Qi with a smile after connecting it, there was a burst of chaotic voices inside, which sounded quite noisy, like in a bar.

He was a little surprised, and his smile narrowed.

After the male voice on the phone "fed" a few times, Wen Bailing calmly asked, "Is Tang Qi there?" ”

"Who are you talking about, Tang Qi? Where did Tang Qi go, oh ask, hey, Tang Qi went to the bathroom. ”

I don't know if Wen Bailing's voice was low, I heard it wrong, or the person who answered the phone drank too much, and even gave him this sentence: "Uncle, don't worry, Tang Qi is with me, it must be safe......"

Wen Bailing laughed angrily, didn't listen to what the boy said, and hung up the phone directly.

It was still morning, and in a few minutes, the man who really called him uncle appeared.

My brother's little niece didn't even knock on the door, and rushed in to make trouble: "Get up, Mom and Dad told you to go downstairs for dinner!" ”

Wen Bailing raised her hand and threw it, the phone fell on the bed, got up to pick up her little niece, and walked downstairs.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with him, but the little niece poked his side cheek, stared at a pair of big curious eyes, and asked, "Little uncle, why are you frowning?" ”

"Do I have one?"

"Yes."

The little niece raised her hand and pinched her own eyebrows: "This is it, wrinkled." ”

Wen Bailing smiled: "Ah, it may be that you are too heavy." ”

Tang Qi, who was far away in China, didn't feel Wen Bailing's emotions, and didn't even know that he had called him.

Everyone drank too much on Christmas night, and Tang Qi and Lu Qian were the only ones left who were sober, and later I heard Lu Qian say that Sun Xu and they were all broken.

The car that night was all called by Tang Qi, and she answered several calls from the substitute driver and taxi driver alone, and talked to Lu Qian again.

Wen Bailing's name in the call record, I didn't know where to squeeze it for a long time, and Tang Qi didn't find it at all.

When the scholarship was finally paid to Tang Qi's card, it was already during the final exam, and she fought every day, buried herself in the review materials, and still sent a message to Wen Bailing.

The last time the message in the dialog was in the fall.

It was Wen Bailing who initiated the chat first, and told her that a friend around him had recently met a scammer, suffered heavy losses, and was deceived by nearly eight figures.

In fact, it was something that had nothing to do with Tang Qi, but he still called after Tang Qi replied to the message, asked her if her roommate was better, and also asked her about her recent situation.

At that time, it happened to be just before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and after the call, Tang Qi sent Wen Bailing "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival".

He replied to her with the same sentence, and the conversation stopped at the blessing.

This time, Tang Ji only sent one sentence in the past:

[Wen Bailing, I have money. 】

I haven't been in touch for too long, and she sent a lot of greetings, but she still deleted them. A little arrogantly thought, if Wen Bailing still remembered their agreement, he must know what he meant.

But Wen Bailing did not reply to her, and she did not receive any reply from Wen Bailing until a week later, when all of Tang Qi's subject exams had ended.

But the day before he went home during the winter vacation, Sun Xu called Tang Qi, saying that he was downstairs in the dormitory, and asked Tang Qi if he was free to come down.

"I happened to be passing by here, I bought some food for Lu Qian, I called Lu Qian just now, she said she wasn't in the bedroom, can you help you get it?"

Tang Qi didn't think much about it, he should come down, put on a down jacket and go downstairs to pick up Sun Xu's things.

There was a light breeze and snow outside, and the temperature was a little cold.

Sun Xu's car was indeed parked downstairs, Sun Xu was carrying a big bag, and when they met, they first asked Tang Qi when he would go home.

After a semester of cooperation, they can be regarded as relatively familiar friends, and Tang Qi casually chatted with Sun Xu, saying that she had booked the tickets in advance and would go home tomorrow afternoon.

"That's right, I bought a lot of souvenirs, you can divide them, and you can take them home to eat."

Tang Qi took the bag and thanked him again and again, and said thank you to Sun Xu on behalf of his roommates, but he didn't think that Sun Xu hadn't planned to leave yet, obviously there were other things.

"Tang Qi ......"

Sun Xu scratched his head, as if hesitating: "I actually have something to say to you." ”

"What's wrong?"

Tang Qi didn't react for a while, seeing that he was so embarrassed, he thought that Sun Xu wanted her to help because he had some temporary filming work.

Not far away, a car was parked unobtrusively in the wind and snow, and the wipers dutifully swayed from side to side, sweeping away the snow in front of the window.

Wen Bailing sat in the warm air conditioner, looking at the snowflakes falling on Tang Qi's hair and his ears red by the wind, and couldn't help but scold.

On this cold day, what do you have to stand outside and say?

Just say it, it's a big man, what are you twisting?

After he finished slandering, the boy standing opposite Tang Qi suddenly did not hesitate, turned around and took out a bouquet of roses from the car, and stuffed it into Tang Qi's arms.
