Before the club activity on Sunday, Tao Xi reassured Lin Qinhe:

"Tonight at 6:30 tonight, Cantonese-Hong Kong Tea Restaurant in Ode Plaza, you must not let me dove! Otherwise I will…"

Lin Qinhe took out the sheet music and looked at him calmly: "Otherwise what would happen to you?"

Tao Xi choked.

What can he do

He'll be disappointed, but he'll still love this man so much.

So he snorted and said to Lin Qinhe, "It's not very good, maybe I'll ignore you tomorrow."

After a pause, he added in a useless whisper, "Just one day."

Tao Xi heard Lin Qinhe give a low laugh. Before he could see Lin Qinhe's smile clearly, Lin Qinhe left the classroom with the sheet music.

Tao Xi sat in his seat for a while before getting up and heading to the art club.

Before he started painting, Qiao Yitang found him and said, "Tao Xi, last time I showed my grandfather your painting. He wants to see you. Are you free in the afternoon?"

Tao Xi was stunned and looked at Qiao Yitang blankly.

Qiao Yitang smiled and said, "Oh right, you probably don't know who my grandfather is. My grandfather's name is Qiao Henian, you should have heard of it, right?"

Tao Xi's heart trembled, Qiao Henian couldn't possibly not know that this over-aged painter was a famous oil painting master in China and used to be the president of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. He did not expect Qiao Yitang to be Qiao Henian's granddaughter, more I didn't expect Qiao Henian to want to see him.

He was naturally excited to see Qiao Henian, but not today, he said to Qiao Yitang, "I really want to see Mr. Qiao, but I have an appointment for dinner tonight. Can I visit Mr. Qiao next week?"

Qiao Yitang's eyes lit up, and she asked gossip: "Are you going on a date at night? That's to prepare well! It's okay, my grandfather plays chess at home every day and has nothing to do. See you next week."

Tao Xi knew that Qiao Yitang had misunderstood, but the word "date" made his heart sweet. He didn't refute, his eyes were bright, and the corners of his mouth couldn't hold back his smile, and he said thank you.

Qiao Yitang looked at the innocent look of the boy in front of her, and felt that it was very similar to the white milk cat she had raised before. She was a little itchy and wanted to brush Tao Xi's hair, but after thinking about it, she held back, and said leisurely:

"Get dressed up and have a nice date!"

Tao Xi nodded happily and said thank you.

Qiao Yitang turned around and left the studio, walked to the corner of the corridor, took out his mobile phone and made a call, and cracked as soon as he connected:

"You owe me another big favor! I helped him connect with my grandfather, but my grandfather is really interested in him after seeing his paintings, maybe he will be an apprentice in the future, you know my grandfather is now Except I don't accept students."

"I really don't understand you. I thought at first that you wanted to be in politics like your grandfather and uncle, so you support the country's targeted poverty alleviation policy, but you are not helping the poor, you are raising a child and a daughter-in-law!"

"But people are happily going on a date tonight, don't raise it until you have nothing in the end!"

The other side hung up the phone without saying a word, Qiao Yitang looked at the screen of the mobile phone angrily, thinking that this stuffy jar that just does nothing and doesn't say anything is best to have nothing!

After Tao Xi finished painting, he ran back to the dormitory, picking and choosing from the closet for a long time without picking out any suitable clothes.

He didn't have any clothes at all, and since he came to Wenhua No. 1 Middle School, he didn't buy any new clothes because he wore a school uniform every day.

Still have to buy a suit, he thought.

Tao Xi went out of school to the mall again. The salesman saw that Tao Xi was good-looking and kept asking him to change clothes to try on. The clothes were really good-looking. He was pressed and took a bunch of photos like a model, but he looked at the price. Thousands wilted immediately.

Although the school gave out a lot of money, he would never waste it on such expensive clothes.

Tao Xi finally found a relatively cheap underground shopping mall, and spent 300 yuan to buy a set of clothes that were discounted from last year's season, an off-white knitted sweater with two fluffy and soft woven ropes hanging in front of him, and a pair of legs lined with light-colored jeans. Thin and long.

He didn't think it was handsome enough, but the salesperson made him dizzy.

After buying new clothes, Tao Xi squatted beside the bench in the rest area of the shopping mall, took out the paper from his schoolbag, and started to do his homework on the bench.

The middle-aged uncle who was sitting beside him waiting for his wife to go shopping clicked his tongue: "Little boy, how tiring it is to squat here, there is a cafe there, it's more comfortable to do homework there."

Tao Xi shook his head: "The cafe is too expensive." He paused, looked at the uncle and said seriously, "And I'm a sophomore in high school, so I'm not a child anymore."

The uncle smiled: "You look like a junior high school student. Besides, the second year of high school is also very young, not yet an adult."

Tao Xi frowned and thought, this suit is still not handsome enough.

The uncle sighed with emotion and said to himself: "If that kid in my family is so obedient and sensible, I will definitely be able to live to ninety-nine in one breath."

Tao Xi did his homework at 5:30. When he stood up, his legs were numb and he almost fell. He moved his legs in place for a while, packed his schoolbag and ran to his destination.

The rush hour in big cities is always full of people. After the autumn equinox, the sun sets earlier and earlier, and the twilight is gradually engulfed by the night. Tao Xi stood at the entrance of the crowded Oder shopping mall, looking down at the WeChat dialog box on his mobile phone in a daze. .

Do you want to ask where Lin Qinhe is

But it's not yet six o'clock, will Lin Qinhe be annoying

Tao Xi then took out a booklet of English words from his schoolbag, and stood in the crowd of people reciting the words. Many people passing by looked around in amazement.

But he couldn't memorize it at all. Those letters were grouped together in front of his eyes, then scattered in his mind, and finally became the three characters of Lin Qinhe.

A college boy standing by the side, waiting for his girlfriend, couldn't help but said to Tao Xi, "Are you also waiting for your girlfriend to date? If she sees you dating and studying, she will be angry."

Tao Xi was startled and asked in surprise, "Are you really going to be angry?"

But if he didn't study hard, Lin Qinhe would also be angry.

"Of course it does, it means you haven't put her at ease." The college boy seemed to be very experienced. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his girlfriend approaching. He hurriedly smiled and gave her a hug. The two held hands. Go to the mall.

Tao Xi quickly put the word booklet back in his schoolbag, and started staring at the WeChat dialog box on his mobile phone in a daze.

It's already six o'clock, should I be okay

Tao Xi mustered up the courage to start typing on the phone:

"Where are you..."

Just halfway through the call, the interface suddenly turned into a call reminder.

It was Lin Qinhe's phone number.

At that moment, Tao Xi felt his stomach spasm. It was a surge of nervousness and excitement at the same time. He connected the phone with his fingers in a panic, holding the phone tightly and asked:

"Where have you been? I'm at the door of the Orde Mall right now, by the lamp post on the left."

When he made a sound, he realized that his voice was trembling with excitement, and his throat seemed to be blocked by a mass of wet cotton.

There seemed to be some noise over the phone, but Lin Qinhe's deep voice was still clear:

"Tao Xi, I'm sorry, I can't come here tonight." He paused and continued, "I'm sorry, something suddenly happened at home."

Tao Xi's heart sank quickly in the first half of the sentence, but he immediately raised it in the second half of the sentence. He asked anxiously, "What happened? Does it matter?"

Lin Qinhe said: "Yang Duole is sick, and my family and I are on the way to take him to the hospital."

Tao Xi finally heard it clearly, the loud background sound was intermittent sobbing, and an old grandmother comforted her in a warm voice: "Don't cry, my grandson, I'm going to the hospital soon."

The voice cried and called "Brother Qinhe" again, and then the voice of Lin Qinhe after the phone was taken away:

"Lele, bear with it, it won't hurt after seeing the doctor."

Tao Xi suddenly found that he couldn't find the air to breathe.

He felt his heart hurt so much, so painful.

It hurts so much.

Painful vision began to blur.

The voice on the other end of the phone was close at hand again, Lin Qinhe's voice was low and soft:

"I'm sorry, I'll invite you to dinner next time. You can eat whatever you want, okay?"

Tao Xi pinched the palm of his hand with his fingers. He blinked his eyes hard, but the neon lights of high-rise buildings and the endless stream of car taillights were still blurred into gorgeous spots in front of his eyes.

He murmured, "But, but..."

He was stubbornly unwilling to agree, but could not give a reason.

Lin Qinhe patiently asked him, "but what?"

Tao Xi closed his eyes and said in a sluggish voice:

"But I want to see you."

No reason, I just want to see you.

I want, I want, I want.

This sentence seems to have used up all his courage, and Tao Xi closed his eyes tightly, as if he could not hear all the voices in the world.

The other end of the phone was silent for a moment, it seemed to be only three seconds, and then it seemed to be a long time, he heard Lin Qinhe say to him in the breath he tried to suppress:

"Stand there obediently and don't move, I'll have someone pick you up, okay?"

His voice was as gentle as the October evening wind, which gave him the illusion that Lin Qinhe was coaxing him, like Yang Duole.

Tao Xi took a breath and said, "Okay."

After he finished speaking, he realized that he couldn't make a sound at all. He took a deep breath, and the hoarse throat made a sound again:

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Tao Xi reached out and touched his face, which was wet.

Holding his phone, he stared blankly at the bustling crowd.

White-collar workers returning home from get off work, couples holding hands on a date, friends shopping together, parents with children…

Everyone plays their role in the lively neon night, but what role is he tonight

Tao Xi didn't wait for a long time, a black car that he didn't know but was frequently looked at stopped not far away, a young man in a suit got out of the car, and soon found him at the entrance of the mall and asked:

"Hello, you are Tao Xi, right? I'm Chen Ting, the driver of the Lin family."

Tao Xi nodded numbly and followed Chen Ting into the car.

Soon he was sent to Hannan Hospital, and Chen Ting took him into the hospital.

Tao Xi began to regret the moment he entered the hospital elevator. Why did he come here

Yang Duole is sick, what is he doing here in a shameless manner

visit? visit? care

To be one of the many family and friends carers surrounding Yang Duole

I can only find myself unhappy.

There were many people in the elevator, and there was a pungent smell of disinfectant. Tao Xi was squeezed into the corner with his schoolbag.

There was an old man with a lunch box next to him, looking at the corner, the child seemed to be wrapped in dark shadows, his sadness was so obvious, thinking that he was sad for his sick relatives, he asked him kindly:

"Do you want to visit your family after school?"

Tao Xi shook his head silently.

He just wanted to see Lin Qinhe.

Just one look, and then go.

he said to himself.

The elevator opened again when it reached the fifth floor, and Chen Ting whispered to him, "It's here."

Many people in the elevator started to walk outside, and Tao Xi was the last to get out of the elevator after the others.

The crowd dispersed, and his vision became wider. He saw Lin Qinhe standing not far from the elevator entrance, looking at him.

Tao Xi suddenly couldn't move, and stood in the same place looking at Lin Qinhe, the elevator door behind him closed again with a "ding".

This is enough, he thought.

He should go back after saying that.

Lin Qinhe walked up to him, took the schoolbag in his arms and held it in his hand, and asked him in a low voice:

"Are you hungry? Would you like to eat something first?"

Tao Xi didn't speak, just looked at Lin Qinhe, his long eyelashes were clearly illuminated by the overhead lights, and there was only this person in his pupils.

It seems that there is only one person in the whole world.

Lin Qinhe looked down at those wet eyes for a while, then suddenly raised his hand to touch Tao Xi's soft hair.

But he paused with his fingers before touching the strands of hair, then twisted the woven rope of the sweater that Tao Xi had thrown behind him, and gently placed it on his chest, as if he was pinning a rose on his chest. .

He retracted his hand, and the fingers hanging on the side of his leg curled slightly.

However, Tao Xi grabbed the soft braided rope and squeezed it into the palm of his hand. He looked at Lin Qinhe and suddenly said:

"Lin Qinhe, I'm so hungry."

he thinks.

Seeing just one glance is not enough.

Not enough.
