Well, it's handsome.

His whole person was in a state of surprise, Qi Xia had a crush, so now, does she still like him? Of course, what made Chen Xifan most curious was who was Qi Xia's crush?

Very handsome, a boy from the same school as him......

At a certain moment, a very ridiculous idea popped up in my heart, could it be that the boy who Qi Xia had a crush on in high school was himself?

Ever since he was a child, Chen Xifan has heard the most compliments related to his face, and almost everyone's first impression of him is that he looks good.

Based on the evaluation of others, Chen Xifan fell into deep thought, is Qi Xia's crush him? Or someone else ?

The two of them had their own thoughts, and they didn't speak again for the rest of the race.

The car stopped downstairs, Qi Xia opened his eyes on time and unbuckled his seat belt, "Thank you, I'll go up first, you drive slower on the way back and rest early." ”

"Well, good night."

The night wind didn't stop, and after walking a few steps, Qi Xia heard Chen Xifan call her again: "Qi Xia—"

She turned around, the night wind blew the corners of her skirt and coat, and Qi Xia pulled the broken hair around her ears, "What's wrong?" ”

The window of the car was lowered, revealing Chen Xifan's good-looking face. His silhouette loomed in the streetlight, and his expression was unclear.

Chen Xifan clenched his fingers on the steering wheel and said with a smile: "The last question tonight, do you still like that high school crush?" ”

In winter, the air in the north is cold and dry, with depressed branches and snowflakes. This scene is very similar to the day she first arrived in Baita Lane and met him that year.

At that time, he was holding a pink snowboard, and the unbridled teenager amazed the dreary winter. At this time, he was sitting in the car, only half a step away from her.

García Márquez said that memories are a road of no return, and that nothing in the past can be restored.

And what about the heartbeat of the old days? Is it possible to make a comeback?

Qi Xia looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know." ”

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, there was a meeting with the airline, and Chen Xifan drove back to his apartment near the airport. His apartment is on the 26th floor, with a one-staircase and one-family layout, and the decoration is simple, mainly in white and gray tones.

After entering the house, Chen Xifan came out of the shower and picked up his mobile phone to look at it.

He, He Xiao, Chu Yang, and Xu Youfei have a WeChat group, which is from Xu Youfei in college, and said that it is convenient to give them three jobs.

In this group, Xu Youfei and He Xiao were chatting.

He Xiao: [What is Xu Youfei doing? 】

Xu Youfei said that she and Xing Anya were watching a movie called "The Little Thing of First Love", about secret love.

Speaking of his crush, He Xiao thought of the game table tonight, and typed: [Xu Youfei, who is the person who has a crush in Qixia High School? Do you know? Damn, I'm curious. 】

Xu Youfei replied: [You are a big man, why are you so gossipy? 】

He Xiao: [Isn't it okay? 】

Chen Xifan stared at the screen and didn't speak.

The two quarreled back and forth, the news refreshed quickly, and finally finally got back to the topic, Xu Youfei said: [I really don't know, Xia Xia didn't say who it was. 】

Seeing this, Chen Xifan offered another way of thinking, "When she was in high school, which boy did she pay more attention to? Compliments and so on. 】

The group was silent for a while, and Xu Youfei sent a few shocked emojis.

[There really is!] In the third year of high school, didn't our class have a physical education class with the thirteenth class? One day we were sitting on a bench watching the boys play basketball, and Anya and I had an argument over who was more handsome, Lin Zhiyuan or my brother from Class 13. I choose Lin Zhiyuan, Anya chooses my brother, Xia Xia, like me, also thinks Lin Zhiyuan is more handsome than my brother. 】

He Xiao: [Lin Zhiyuan? The one who plays ball in the liberal arts class? Qi Xia thinks Lin Zhiyuan is more handsome than Brother Fan? Depend on! Her crush is Lin Zhiyuan? 】

Chu Yang, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly appeared and issued a string of ellipses: [......]

Xu Youfei defended: [Lin Zhiyuan doesn't play ball, he just cares. 】

He Xiao: [Do you praise other men again? ] 】

Chu Yang: [Are you pigs? 】

Xu Youfei: [You are a pig, an Australian pig. 】

He Xiao: [Australian small braised pig. 】

……

The three of them quarreled in the group, and Chen Xifan threw his mobile phone back to the bedroom.

The room was not lit, and he was lying on the bed in a large shape, staring at the dark ceiling, his chest was congested, and he was not happy.

Lin Zhiyuan, he remembered this person.

Qi Xia's crush is Lin Zhiyuan?

Suddenly, his thoughts gathered, and Chen Xifan recalled the scene when he went home from the box and met Lin Zhiyuan in the corridor on the day of the graduation dinner of his third year of high school.

At that time, Lin Zhiyuan seemed to have drunk too much, so he asked him to help and send a love letter to Qi Xia. After many years, Chen Xifan found that he still remembered the appearance of the love letter, a pink envelope with a few hearts on it......

Chen Xifan closed his eyes, and Lin Zhiyuan's unbeaten face appeared in his mind for a while, and Xu Youfei's long message for a while.

His jawline was tense and dim, his eyes were swirling with intense emotion, and his fists were clenched as if he were trying to endure something.

Growing up, what he wanted was always at his fingertips.

At the age of twenty-six, Chen Xifan experienced for the first time in his life an emotion called jealousy.

*

Early the next morning, Chen Xifan went out at 6 o'clock to go to the airline for a meeting.

The theme of today's meeting is aviation regulation training, which is already a cliché, and he has memorized it as early as his first year in the airline.

At the front of the conference room, the law lecturer played the courseware, and his voice was more hypnotic than a lullaby.

Chen Xifan kicked on the horizontal bar of the table with his long legs, looked around in the WeChat friend list, and found an acquaintance from the previous thirteenth class.

clicked on the dialog box, and he got straight to the point: [Is Lin Zhiyuan in your class in Beijing? ] 】

[Ah, didn't Lin Zhiyuan open a transportation company at home, his son inherited his father's business, and now he is also doing that, oh, he seems to have a side business, and there is a bar on Tunyuan Road. 】

[Brother Fan, why are you asking him? 】

Chen Xifan's ambiguous attitude, [It's okay, just ask, is he single? ] 】

[It seems that he has a girlfriend, and he has a good relationship in his circle of friends. 】

Chen Xifan: [Give me his WeChat.] 】

……

At the meeting that followed, Chen Xifan was a little absent-minded.

He suddenly realized that he might care more about Qi Xia than he imagined, whether she was cold or not, what she did, and who she liked.

Next to him, Wang Peng called him several times: "Brother Fan-"

"Brother Fan!"

He came back to his senses and tilted his head: "What's the matter?" ”

"Sign." Wang Peng handed over a list and said curiously, "What are you thinking?" Haven't you heard it for a long time? ”

Nie Hai also joined in the fun: "What, I lost my soul in the New Year?" ”

What was he thinking?

The answer is yes, he was thinking about Qi Xia.

Chapter 44

After the end of the holiday, all walks of life have resumed work one after another.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Qi Xia went to the magazine office on time to check in, and everyone had not yet recovered from the state of the holiday, and the office area was lifeless.

Returning to the workstation and turning on the computer, Qi Xia first sorted out the recent work, and the most important thing at hand at hand was the interview with Yang Fu.

The handover with Zheng Xinyan was not smooth, and he couldn't wait all the time, so Qi Xia decided to communicate with Yang Fu's assistant first.

She dialed the number on the document, and after a few beeps, the phone was connected.

"Hey-" Qi Xia's voice fell and explained his intentions: "Hello, I am Qi Xia, a reporter from Science Times, and I have made an appointment with Mr. Yang Fu for an interview before. ”

On the other side of the phone, the assistant's attitude was very cold, "Wait, I'll take a look at Mr. Yang's journey." ”

"From four to six o'clock next Friday, you will come directly to the institute. Reporter Qi, I must remind you not to make low-level mistakes again, our teacher Yang is very busy, please be fully prepared before the interview, if there is any more problems, you should not come. ”

The tone is not fierce, but it is absolutely serious.

Qi Xia's attitude is still very good, "Definitely, I will be fully prepared to make it easier to disclose, last time my colleague came to interview, did you have a good chat with Teacher Yang?" ”

"Pleasant what? The reporter surnamed Zheng is also too professional, you ask her to go yourself. ”

After speaking, the other party hung up the phone with a snap.

It's not that I haven't met difficult interview subjects before, but this time it's a big figure like Yang Fu, and Qi Xia is a little at a loss.

She had no choice but to call Zheng Xinyan, but Zheng Xinyan's mobile phone was turned off directly.

Qi Xia propped his head with his hands and let out a long sigh.

After a while, Gan Yao poked her head over, "What?" Zheng Xinyan still can't be contacted? ”

"Her phone is off."

Gan Yao chewed a piece of dried sweet potato and shook her head again and again: "Zheng Xinyan is too unkind, she resigned when she got into trouble, and she disappeared." She's walking in style, and she wants you to wipe her ass. And if this matter is not solved, it will not have a good impact on our magazine. ”

"yes." Qi Xia leaned back, looking tired early in the morning, "So the editor-in-chief is also very worried, and he has been looking for someone to inquire about Yang Fu in the past few days." ”

As she was talking, Gan Yao's mobile phone suddenly rang, saying that there was her courier downstairs.

Gan Yao went downstairs to get the courier, Qi Xia saw that WeChat kept flashing, and when she clicked on it, it was a message for help from Li Mi.

Li Mi: [Xia Xia, do you know creators in the field of children's literature? It doesn't matter if it's popular or not, as long as there is a ready-made manuscript. 】

In private, Qi Xia and Li Mi had a good relationship, and in the first few years of her career, she had no connections, and several important interviews were matched by Li Mi.

Qi Xia has always been very grateful to her, and typed and said: [I really don't know this person, what's wrong? 】
