"I'm pretty much the same." Qi Xia took a sip of lemonade, "Contact Xing Anya to live up and down the stairs a little more, Fei Fei is still in New York, and she will have a video when she is free, and the others ...... Basically, I don't have much contact. ”

"In the first few days after graduation, the Q/Q class group was quite lively, everyone said goodbye to each other, saying that they would get together once a year, and then it was gone."

Graduation is a watershed, no matter how sincere the oath of the mountains and seas is, but after graduation, everyone has their own life needs to run, and losing contact is the norm.

Speaking of q/q, Chen Xifan suddenly said: "I remember, we don't seem to have added q/q friends before?" ”

This question was caught off guard, Qi Xia's mind buzzed, and he looked away: "Well, I haven't added it, I don't need q/q for a long time." ”

"Me too, I don't use it much." Chen Xifan's tone was casual.

Soon, the food they ordered was ready, the waiter brought it, and the conversation came to an abrupt end.

Qi Xia secretly glanced at him, and said in his heart that in fact, we are good friends, but you don't know the way.

However, it's all in the past.

The meal was pleasant, and Qi Xia was very good at talking to people, and Chen Xifan also took the initiative to find a topic, and when it was almost over, Qi Xia said that he wanted to go to the bathroom.

She took her phone and came back from the bathroom to pay for it, but when she got to the cash register, she was told by the staff that she had already bought it.

Qi Xia was surprised: "Who bought it?" ”

"The handsome guy you're with."

At this time, Chen Xifan came over with her bag and asked, "Are you leaving?" ”

"Let's go." Qi Xia took his things, came out of the restaurant and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you say that I was in for a treat?" ”

Chen Xifan looked at her, with a smile in his eyes, "Next time." ”

Next time......

Is there a next time?

Chapter 33

Digression: The previous chapter was repaired and rewatched again, otherwise the plot would not be connected

————————————————

Coming out of the mall, they didn't go back the way they came, but went around to a brightly lit pedestrian street, walking back as they went.

There are not many people on the pedestrian street, some small shops are quite interesting, and when passing by a second-hand bookstore, Chen Xifan stopped to look at it for a few more seconds.

In the window there is a large display case, made of glass, filled with stamps.

Qi Xia followed his gaze and found it too.

Does he still love stamps so much?

Qi Xia didn't know anything about stamps, and that time he helped him find the special 5-2003 by mistake.

She proposed: "Go in? ”

Chen Xifan raised his chin and said, "I can't go shopping, the boss seems to be ready to get off work." ”

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the boss come out with his bag on his back, lock the door and ride away on his bicycle.

Qi Xia: "Come back next time." ”

Chen Xifan suddenly lowered his head and leaned towards her, and the refreshing smell mixed into his breath.

He suppressed his voice, and seemed to be in a good mood, "Okay, next time." ”

After strolling around, she quickly returned to the car, Qi Xia sat in the co-pilot and fastened her seat belt, Chen Xifan handed her a paper bag, "Power bank." ”

"Okay, I'm sorry for you." Thinking that he had just paid for the meal, Qi Xia was a little reluctant and asked, "When are you free, I'll invite you back, don't grab the bill with me next time." ”

Chen Xifan looked at her and didn't say anything for a while.

It was almost ten o'clock, and the night was falling to surround the whole city, and his expression was not clear in the darkness, and his side face was still as handsome as ever.

Not far away, the music of the fountain square flew into the car, the melody was light, it was pure music, and the name was "Until the early morning and dusk".

After a moment of silence, Chen Xifan said: "I may not be able to do it recently, I will go to the southwest to train for a while." ”

"Uh-huh, let me know when you're free."

The car started, and Qi Xia was curious again, "You have been promoted to captain, do you still need training?" ”

"Of course." Chen Xifan pressed down the electronic handbrake and said to her: "The captain is also divided into grades, and there are tests every once in a while, and if the test fails, he will be reduced back to the co-pilot." ”

Qi Xia sighed: "It's so strict. ”

"Well, after all, it's a big responsibility."

The weather was cool at night, the road conditions were good, and not long after the departure, Qi Xia's phone rang, and it was Qi Yuan.

She picked it up: "Hey, Yuan-"

"Sister, woo-"

Qi Yuan's cry came from the other end of the phone, Qi Xia's heart tightened, and his tongue knotted when he spoke: "What's wrong?" Where are you? ”

Qi Yuan said: "I took the subway in reverse, and now at Binh Duong Station, the subway back is suspended, and this side is ...... It's too far away to get a taxi, and I don't know how to get back. ”

Qi Yuan went out for the first time, and was stranded outside at night, and Qi Xia was already in a hurry.

She frowned and confirmed, "Is it right at the C mouth?" Then you wait for me where you are, and I'll take a taxi to pick you up, huh...... Don't cry, don't cry, I'll be there right away. ”

Hanging up the phone, Qi Xia said anxiously: "Please put me down at the intersection in front, it's a bit urgent." ”

Chen Xifan held the steering wheel in his hand, stepped on the brake, and asked her, "What's the urgency?" ”

Qi Xia explained: "My sister took the subway in reverse, and the subway back was out of service and couldn't get a taxi, so I'm going to pick up ...... now."

"Which station?"

"Binh Duong Station Exit C."

In the relationship of his profession, Chen Xifan never drags his feet in making decisions.

The car drove through the intersection but did not stop, he controlled the steering wheel with one hand, clicked on the navigation with the other, expanded the map with his slender fingers, glanced at it, and estimated the time.

The speed limit in the city, he said: "Don't worry, it's only 48 kilometers, and you can get there in half an hour." ”

Qi Xia was stunned, "Are you sending me over?" ”

"Hmm." Chen Xifan's attitude as a matter of course, after passing the traffic light, stepped on the accelerator, and said in a calm tone, "After the Beijing subway was suspended, there were staff members in the station who patrolled until half past eleven, and asked her to enter the station and wait for us, so it would be safer." ”

Qi Xia didn't care about the trouble, so he nodded and did so.

After contacting Qi Yuan, she had time to be distracted, and her eyes secretly fell on Chen Xifan.

The car has gone out of the city and turned onto the highway, the speed limit on this road is 120, Qi Xia glanced at the dashboard, Chen Xifan stepped on the accelerator, and the speed has been hovering around 120.

There are not many cars on the road, and the highway is lined with fields and woods. Even if the window is not opened, Qi Xia can still hear the wind hunting outside the window.

No one spoke, and the lights above their heads were dim, as if they were on the scene of an old movie.

Chen Xifan's face was hidden in light and shadow, and his silhouette seemed to be covered with a layer of soft light. The bridge of the nose is high, the thin lips are slightly open, and the jawline is smooth and distinct.

Qi Xia inexplicably remembered that when she was in high school, on the day of Xu Youfei's birthday, she went out to pick up the courier but couldn't find her way back, and she was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.

He said to her, "Don't be afraid, just follow me."

The real charcoal in the snow, the dark room is full of lights.

Twenty-five-year-old Chen Xifan was much quieter, but Qi Xia could still see the gentle and sunny young man through him.

With a slight astringency in his throat, Qi Xia found a topic to chat with him and said, "Do you usually live in the city?" Wouldn't it be inconvenient to go to work? ”

"I live in an apartment on the other side of the airport, and I occasionally come here in the city."

Qi Xia was stunned, "Then will you go back to the apartment at the airport?" Or ......"

Chen Xifan: "There will be a meeting tomorrow morning, go to the airport." ”

Binh Duong Station is in the southwest corner, and the airport is in the northeast corner, more than 100 kilometers apart.

Qi Xia closed his eyes, only felt too embarrassed, and said dryly: "I'm sorry, I really caused you trouble today." ”

"Think it's bothering me?" Chen Xifan looked at her, the corners of his lips curled, and his words were suffocated.

Qi Xia nodded: "Isn't it troublesome?" ”

"Hmm-" Chen Xifan pondered for a moment, "If you find it troublesome, invite me to dinner a few more times." ”

Qi Xia agreed, "Okay, wait until you come back from training." ”

"It's a word."

Chen Xifan's estimate was very accurate, and 30 minutes later, the car stopped at Exit C of Binh Duong Station.

This area belongs to the suburbs, and there is not even a bus stop around the black lights, and it is extremely desolate. Fortunately, the subway entrance was not closed, and Chen Xifan accompanied Qi Xia into the station to find someone.

At this time, at the ticket window of the subway station, Qi Yuan and a young lady who sold the conductor were sitting together and chatting.

This child has strong social skills since he was a child, and he does not recognize life. Qi Yuan and the conductor were eating melon seeds, and when she heard footsteps, she looked up and saw her sister and a young man walking over.

In an instant, the little girl's eyes widened.

The conductor's sister asked her, "Child, are those two here to pick you up?" ”

"Well, my sister." Qi Yuan stood up and shook the melon seed shell on his body.

The conductor's young lady got up and stretched, and breathed a sigh of relief after the activity: "Okay, your sister and your brother-in-law are here to pick you up, go ahead, and then get on the subway next time." ”

Qi Yuanchong smiled sweetly, "Thank you, beautiful sister." ”

"Yo, sweet little mouth, bye-bye."

"Bye-bye."

In the distance, Qi Xia also saw Qi Yuan, and the heart that had been hanging all the way finally fell back into his stomach.

Chen Xifan thought that the two sisters might have something to say, and said, "I'll wait for you here." ”

"Okay."

Qi Xia walked over, took the little girl to the left and left, and asked her, "Is there anything uncomfortable?" ”
