Chapter 3

Qi Xia's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she raised her eyes to meet Chen Xifan's eyes impartially.

Chen Xifan has standard peach blossom eyes, the tails of the eyes are slightly long and slightly raised, and there is always a soft light inside.

He was wearing a short black down jacket, the zipper was not pulled open at the placket, and inside was a gray hooded sweatshirt, the two drawstrings of the sweatshirt were short and long, and they were not symmetrical, which was very casual.

Qi Xia's breathing tightened for a moment, and he couldn't speak, "Umbrella...... Give me the umbrella, what about you? ”

"I've arrived." Chen Xifan tilted his head and pointed to a black sedan parked not far away.

The car flashed double, and the body was even brighter when it was wet, and it was waiting silently in the rain.

"Thank you."

On the way back to the residence with the umbrella, Qi Xia fingered the shuttle, and still felt that the handle of the umbrella was a little hot.

The raindrops smashed on the surface of the umbrella with a light snow, making a sound that was sometimes light and sometimes heavy, like her irregular heartbeat at the moment.

Qi Xia looked back at the road, and in the hazy night, the black sedan was no longer in place, only the street lights were lonely.

Back in the room, Qi Xia's mobile phone rang.

Her mobile phone is a miscellaneous smartphone, the price is cheap, the battery life is good, it hasn't been charged for two days, and there is still 70% power.

As soon as the phone was connected, Qi Yuan on the other end couldn't wait to speak, "Sister, are you okay at your aunt's house?" Is the big city pretty? Have you ever gone to see the Forbidden City? ”

Qi Yuan is six years younger than her, and he is in elementary school this year, and he is still a little kid who doesn't know anything.

Qi Xia filtered out the unhappy things and said, "My aunt is very good to me, of course the big city is beautiful, and I haven't seen the Forbidden City yet." ”

"Oh, then you have to take pictures to show me when you go to see them, lots and lots of pictures."

The two sisters talked on the phone most of the time, and Qi Xia listened quietly.

Qi Yuan's small mouth never stopped, "Today, my aunt took me to the street and bought a painting pen and a storybook." ”

"Did you ask for it?" Qi Xia's heart tightened.

The current situation of the two sisters is really not suitable for asking for anything. It would be nice to be able to go to school and have a place to eat and sleep.

Qi Yuan: "No, the eldest aunt bought it for my cousin, and she bought it for me." ”

Qi Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

She knows that the eldest uncle and aunt are very good people, the two opened a breakfast shop, in the past, when Qi Liguo was alive, there would be delicious food for them, and the eldest aunt would help Qi Xia hold a parent-teacher meeting, and the two families would eat together during the New Year's holidays.

She was just worried that the good of her uncle and aunt would be consumed by the heavy pressure of life.

Qi Yuan obviously didn't have so many worries, and asked with great interest: "Sister, have you finished writing the story of "Birds and Fish"?" When can I watch it? ”

"Birds and Fish" is an original story written and played by Qi Xia, she is introverted and quiet, and her only hobby is writing.

The conditions at home are not good, once the two sisters went to the street, Qi Yuan read a collection of fairy tales, and Lai refused to leave in the bookstore. But Qi Xia didn't have enough money in her pocket, so she had to coax her to say that she could write this kind of story.

Since then, Qi Xia has given full play to his imagination, and Qi Yuan has also achieved the freedom of fairy tales. Many nights when she couldn't sleep, she fell asleep in her sister's story.

Qi Xia smiled, "Yuanyuan, you are really my loyal reader." ”

"Of course, the story written by my sister is the best in the world."

Qi Xia said: "I've been busy lately, so I'll write when I have time, and I'll show you the first one after I'm done." ”

"Okay, that's a deal."

instructed Qi Yuan to say a few words, and then talked to his uncle.

Fortunately, the eldest uncle's attitude was still the same, saying that he reassured her that Qi Yuan was all right on Yizhou Island, and the little girl had eaten more and gained two pounds, and he would definitely treat Qi Yuan as his own daughter.

Qi Xia was relieved and whispered thank you.

Hanging up the phone, Qi Xia stretched the umbrella to dry on the floor, took a hot shower and dried. She folded it carefully, thinking that she would return it to Chen Xifan next time they met.

But when is the next time we meet? He seems to only come to Grandma Chen's place on weekends and skiing.

Even though she didn't know when she would see each other again, but thinking that the next time they met, she and Chen Xifan had a legitimate reason to speak, and the corners of Qi Xia's mouth couldn't help but curl.

Gray sixteen years old, the sky seemed to crack and leak a little light.

Two years ago, when she was isolated and couldn't find her teammates, she was so anxious that she wanted to cry, but he helped relieve the embarrassment. Whether Chen Xifan was intentional or unintentional that day, Qi Xia was grateful to him. Today, he handed her another umbrella......

Qi Xia clicked on Q/Q and posted a dynamic that was only visible to himself.

I saw him again.

February 20, 2013

Thank you for the umbrella.

In the next few days, Qi Xia was very busy.

In the morning, she would take the bus to the Dongmian community and stay all day.

In his free time, he plays with Cao Yu for a while or reads books and does problems, of course, most of the time is spent cooking and housework. After dinner, she cleaned up the kitchen and took the car back to Baita Lane, usually at this time it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

Because of this, Qi Lanjing and Cao Shuwei quarreled, and the relationship between the family was very stiff, and Cao Meng and her grandparents always looked at her with a look at the plague god.

Qi Xia didn't know how to deal with it, but he became more and more cautious and didn't dare to do anything wrong. During this time, she hadn't seen Chen Xifan, so naturally she didn't have a chance to return the umbrella to him.

At the end of February, the High School Affiliated to Beijing University opened.

On the first day of school, Qi Xia got up early in the morning. Yesterday, I had already recognized the road in advance, Qi Xia didn't let Qi Lanjing send it, and took the bus to go to school by herself.

Probably because of the first day of school, at half past seven, the entrance of the High School Affiliated to Beijing University was blocked into a parking lot. Entering the school gate, Qi Xia stood next to the playground and looked at the school plan, and she had to find the teacher's office to report first.

The campus of the attached middle school is not large, and it is easy to find, and it didn't take long for her to meet the head teacher Hu Zhonghai on the first floor of Zhiyuan Building.

"Hello teacher, I'm Qi Xia, a transfer student in Class 5."

Hu Zhonghai is in his forties, a little fat with glasses, and he was sitting at his desk preparing for class, when he heard the sound and smiled at her, "Oh, oh Qi Xia, sit down." ”

Qi Xia approached and sat on the stool, and saw two sets of textbooks and four sets of school uniforms on the desk.

Hu Zhonghai pointed to the textbooks and said: "The textbooks used in Beijing and F provinces are different, so I changed you to new books, and you will take away two sets of school uniforms." ”

"Okay."

Hu Zhonghai rummaged through the many documents on the table, found a transcript, and said earnestly: "I have read your results, generally speaking, but the language is very good, and being able to get 130 in the exam means that the foundation is excellent, but mathematics and physics are a little weak." ”

"But don't worry, there's still a year and a half to take the college entrance examination. Acclimatize to the environment first, and then slowly catch up. ”

Qi Xia nodded obediently, "I know, thank you, teacher." ”

"Well, you sit and wait for a while, another transfer student is here, and I'll take you to the classroom."

It turned out that there was also a transfer student, no wonder the things on the table were double.

After waiting for five or six minutes, Qi Xia finally met another transfer student.

is a bright and cheerful girl, named Xu Youfei, and her parents are diplomats. Because of her parents' job transfer, she returned to China to study and transferred to the attached middle school.

Xu Youfei is a self-familiar person, and she has a bit of social cow attributes. On the way to the classroom, she hugged her books and school uniform, chatting with Qi Xia non-stop.

"We're so fateful, let's just be at the same table."

Qi Xia smiled gently, "If the teacher agrees, of course you can." ”

Knowing that Qi Xia had just come to Beijing, Xu Youfei said enthusiastically: "Although I went abroad at the age of seven, my whole family is a native of Beijing, and I know many people in school. Don't worry, I'll cover you in the future. ”

This is somewhat social, Qi Xia couldn't help but smile, and asked, "Do you know many people at school?" ”

"Well, my cousin, there are a few more hair children in the attachment. In short, don't worry, no one dares to bully us. ”

Maybe Xu Youfei really talked too much, Hu Zhonghai, who was leading the way in front, looked back at them, and Xu Youfei honestly shut up.

The fifth class classroom of the second year of high school is on the third floor, Hu Zhonghai pushed the door in, and several naughty boys in the class greeted him, "Come on, Lao Hu, I will give you a greeting in your old age, Wishing you prosperity the sixth and sixth ......"

Hu Zhonghai laughed and scolded: "Sit down, sit down, didn't you hear the class bell ringing, what does it look like during class time!" ”

He stood on the podium, cleared his throat and said, "Just after the New Year, you are a year older, which means that we are one step closer to the college entrance examination. New year, new atmosphere, I hope you can study hard, make up for last year's regrets, and create new achievements, right? ”

With a burst of warm applause, Hu Zhonghai raised his hand to signal quiet, and continued: "There are two new students in our class this semester, everyone is welcome." ”

After that, wave and let the new students introduce themselves on stage.

Naturally, it was Xu Youfei, the social cow, who went first, and she was full of confidence: "Hello everyone, my name is Xu Youfei, you can call me Feifei." I used to spend most of my time abroad, but I have always been very fond of ancient poetry and Hanfu. I'm also good at sports, I've practiced taekwondo, red and black belts, oh......"

Some classmates responded very face-savingly: "Sister Fei is mighty. ”

Xu Youfei: "Little brother sit down, Sister Fei hasn't finished talking yet!" In a word, except for my average grades, everything else is not ordinary, and you will know it later. ”

Xu Youfei's lively and playful self-introduction ended here, and the classmates all laughed.

The warm atmosphere made Qi Xia a little stunned, she didn't think that on the first day of school, Xu Youfei would be able to mingle with people. She is actually very envious of this kind of character, humorous and not stage frightened, as if she can do everything with ease.

That kind of confidence and cheerfulness in her bones is something she can't learn.

Then it was Qi Xia's turn, she stood on the podium, looked at the blackboard at the back of the classroom, and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Qi Xia, the dark Qi, the summer of summer, I studied in Province F before......"

After saying this, her brain was stuck, and a boy just coaxed, "The little fairy from the south—"

The tone is frivolous, and there is a whistle attached. The embarrassment eased, and the atmosphere became lively again.

Hu Zhonghai slapped the table to make everyone quiet, pointed to the two empty seats in the first row of the third group and said, "You two sit there first." ”

The seating capacity in the attached middle school is three people, and each person has two people at the same table. Qi Xia sat in the middle, the right table was Xu Youfei, who she already knew, and the left table was also a girl, named Xing Anya, with thin and black-framed eyes, looking like a school bully.

On the first day of school, there was nothing to do, and in the morning, the teachers of each subject recited the mantra to them for self-study. As soon as the teacher left, Xu Youfei was busy socializing with the front and back tables, and Qi Xia'an was reading quietly.

She flipped through the textbooks and found that the textbooks and exam questions used in the attached middle school were different from before, and the progress of the class was much worse.

Qi Xia asked Xing Anya in a low voice, "What time does our school usually end?" ”

Xing Anya patiently replied: "There are extracurricular activities after 4:20, if you don't want to participate, just go directly." ”

"Four-twenty?" Qi Xia was surprised, "Don't you go to self-study at night?" ”

"There are no boarding students in the attached middle school, so of course I don't go to evening self-study in the first and second years of high school. But you can go to the lecture hall of the senior high school teaching building from half past six to half past nine every day. ”
