Although Cheng Junliang was still a little drunk, he was more sober overall, at least he could walk upright on his own, and he didn't need to make a pendant to hang on Gu Yan's body anymore, but Qi Xi and Gu Yan were still somewhat worried, so they accompanied him all the way to take a taxi. After delivering it to the door of the rented house, the two left with peace of mind.
In order to save rent, Cheng Junliang lives far away from the city center. At this point in the evening, it is difficult to take a taxi nearby. Qi Xi and Gu Yan have to rely on public transportation to go back to the city center. The nearest subway station to Cheng Junliang’s home It took nearly twenty minutes to walk.
Fortunately, the temperature is suitable tonight, and the evening breeze is blowing. Qi Xi and Gu Yan walked side by side in the gentle night, and they didn't feel that the journey was difficult, and even Qi Xi felt quite comfortable.
Although he is from Rongshi, Qi Xi has never been to the area where Cheng Junliang is located. Apart from a few mountains in the suburbs that are suitable for outings, there is also a small lake. Many people will come for vacation on weekends. More attractive to young people, it also belongs to a characteristic small bookstore - Cat's Sky City.
It is said to be a special bookstore, but in fact it also combines the elements of a small cafe and a small post office. It is very fashionable and a bit mix-and-match, and it is very popular among young people. In addition to browsing various original albums and illustrations here, the most interesting thing is that you can write a few postcards to the future.
As a native of Rongshi, Qi Xi has heard of this small bookstore countless times, but although this brand store has branches in various districts of Rongshi, the ones in the city center are always overcrowded. Every time Xi looked at the crowd and was persuaded to retreat by strength.
"I remembered that there seems to be a 'Cat's Sky City' nearby! I read the guide before and said that because this area is in the suburbs, there is not much traffic, especially at night, it is very empty!"
Qi Xi has always been very interested in postcards written to the future, and immediately opened the map to look for it. Unexpectedly, it was a coincidence that it was on the only way they had to go to the subway station.
It's not too late now, even if you go for a walk, you can still go back to the city center before the last train of the subway, Qi Xi made a decision immediately, she looked at Gu Yan: "If you are in a hurry to get back, you can go first. I want to go to 'Cat in the Sky' for a while."
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then expressed his intention to find out: "Oh, I have heard of this 'Cat's Sky City' a few times, but I have never had the chance to go. Since I am on the way this time, Then I'll take a look together."
Qi Xi didn't expect that Gu Yan was also interested, so he was naturally very happy: "Then let's go together!"
**
Not long after the two walked, they saw the legendary "Cat's Sky City". This branch is indeed relatively remote and relatively few people. After Qi Xi walked in, he quickly fell in love with this small bookstore. The atmosphere, cultural and creative peripherals are very interesting, and the postcards are very distinctive, and I don’t know if it’s because of the “cat” in the name, there are lazy cats in this small bookstore in twos and threes.
Qi Xi had no resistance to small furry animals, so he immediately rubbed the cat.
Gu Yan seemed a lot more restrained. Although the cat liked him very much and walked around him and rubbed against his legs, Gu Yan seemed a little restrained.
He looked at Qi Xi frequently, with a look of asking for help: "Have these cats been vaccinated? Will there be fleas?"
That cautious look is subversively different from Gu Yan's usual calm and self-reliant look, but Qi Xi thinks that this kind of Gu Yan is also quite interesting.
His stability and calmness make people feel reliable and trustworthy, while his occasional childish cautiousness and over-cautiousness make him look more lively and cute.
Qi Xi had a mischievous mentality, she picked up the cat, and brought it closer to Gu Yan: "Touch it, it's very docile."
Gu Yan wanted to run away subconsciously, and his body also leaned back following Qi Xi's movements, with a disgusted expression on his face: "I don't touch, good men don't keep cats, petting cats is too motherly."
"If you don't touch it, don't touch it." Qi Xi hugged the orange cat, and waved the orange cat's paw at Gu Yan, "I'm going to order a drink, can milk tea be okay?"
"No milk tea." Gu Yan said solemnly, "Men drink milk tea is also a bit bitch, order me a cup of black tea latte."
"It's late at night, do you drink black tea latte?"
Gu Yan nodded, with a firm attitude: "Yes."
It's really a shame to suffer...
But Qi Xi thought about it, and ordered a cup of hot milk for Gu Yan, a cup of milk tea for herself, and some desserts. While waiting for the drinks, she picked out a few postcards and planned to eat them later Stuff while writing postcards to the future.
"Cat's Sky City" has a whole wall of postcards, marked with different dates in the future, as long as you finish writing, put it in the future date you want, once that day arrives, the staff of the bookstore will send it to you out.
After Qi Xi finished picking out the postcards, and the drinks and snacks were ready, she walked back with the plate, and then saw an unexpected scene——
Just now, Gu Yan, who claimed that good men don't keep cats and that cats are very girly, is squatting down. Although he is still cautious, he gently smoothes the big orange cat that Qi Xi was holding before.
He didn't know that Qi Xi was behind him, so he said softly while touching, "I'll just touch it, don't bite me."
It's just that while talking about touching it, in actual actions, Gu Yan never tired of touching it again and again.
When he realized that there was someone behind him, he stopped the movements of his hands and froze for a moment, then he stood up naturally and turned his head.
"Oh, this cat asked me to pet it just now. If you don't pet it, it will block the road and refuse to go." Gu Yan's face was a little red, he lost his usual ease, and he explained in a flustered manner, "I pet it, It’s also impossible.”
Qi Xi almost laughed out loud, but out of politeness, she held back.
"Your drink."
Qi Xi handed the hot milk to Gu Yan. Gu Yan took a sip and found that it was not black tea or coffee. He was obviously a little surprised, but he didn't say anything. He drank the hot milk very quietly, looking as obedient as a primary school student.
Qi Xi also handed the postcard to Gu Yan: "Write to the future, you can write whatever you want, you can choose a certain day in the future to have the staff send it to you, or you can send it to someone else."
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, then took the postcard, he glanced at Qi Xi, his eyes looked a little serious and focused under the warm lighting of the bookstore, then he seemed to have made a decision, and started to write on the postcard with his head down .
Qi Xi also quickly started writing postcards. She wrote one for herself, one for her father and one for her mother. After writing these, there were still many postcards.
Qi Xi thought for a while, with a bit of a thief mentality, she secretly glanced at Gu Yan, not knowing whether it was a coincidence or a sudden whim, she wrote a note to Gu Yan.
There was no serious blessing content, and Qi Xi didn't know what was going on with her, but when she realized it, the postcard to Gu Yan had already been written—
"You're also handsome when you touch the cat."
But since it is a postcard for others, it is always necessary to add a word of blessing. Qi Xi thought about what Gu Yan most hoped to go well, and added a sentence—"I hope that when you see this postcard, you will be happy with your Bai." Moonlight is already together."
Can…
The wish to bless Gu Yan is true, but after Qi Xi finished writing, he felt uncomfortable.
Before placing it on the future wall, Qi Xi still picked up the pen, pursed his lips, and erased the last word of blessing.
As if to vent his anger, Qi Xi completely blacked out this sentence, to the point where Gu Yan could never see what he wrote.
It's just that when it was placed, Qi Xi was still a little guilty, she always felt that she had done something unreasonable, as if she was too stingy to even give Gu Yan her future blessings.
Can…
But with that annoying Bai Yueguang hanging Gu Yan, what kind of happiness can Gu Yan have
Qi Xi thought about what that woman did to Gu Yan, and felt that her behavior was reasonable, after all, she was a scumbag, if she could wish Gu Yan and the scumbag to be together, she would feel at ease.
But even so, Qi Xi was still sneaky in posting postcards, always feeling that what he did was not justified, as if he had done something terribly bad.
But it seems that Gu Yan is the same, and he doesn't know who he is writing to. When this guy wrote it, he covered it tightly, as if he was afraid that Qi Xi would secretly see even a single word. When placing the postcard on the wall, Gu Yan acted very cautiously, as if he didn't want Qi Xi to see it at all.
It is clear that it is upright to write a few postcards to the future, but for some reason, both of them write like thieves.
**
After finishing writing the postcard, because it was getting late, Qi Xi reluctantly left the small bookstore.
There is still some distance to walk to the subway station, and there are not many people along the way. Qi Xi thought of the smooth settlement of Lu Juan and Cheng Junliang, and couldn't help but want to resume the game. At the same time, he was somewhat emotional: "Actually, Pan Zhendong I was really just fooling around about cheating, but I didn't expect to be right."
She looked at Gu Yan: "So you guessed too? I think you should have thought that he was probably cheating."
Unexpectedly by Qi Xi, Gu Yan's voice was very calm: "It's not that he probably cheated, he definitely cheated."
Gu Yan spoke so firmly, Qi Xi couldn't help muttering: "Aren't you just an afterthought..."
"Because I'm a man."
What does this have to do with you being a man
Gu Yan pursed his lips, and explained simply as if reluctantly: "I am a man, so I know men. A person like Pan Zhendong who has high vision but low power probably owes more than a hundred thousand to start a business, and Lu Juan is completely Dazzled by love, Pan Zhendong treats her better and continues to coax her. According to the point that Lu Juan is willing to blackmail Cheng Junliang for him, Lu Juan will definitely continue to borrow online loans to raise money for him at that time , then Lu Juan is obviously of use value to him, why Pan Zhendong would rather bear a debt of 120,000 yuan, write an IOU, and break up with Lu Juan?"
"Besides falling in love with someone else, there is already someone else, and I have no love for Lu Juan at all, so I don't even bother to coax her. Apart from that, there is no other reasonable explanation."
Having said that, Qi Xi suddenly realized.
She looked at Gu Yan. At this moment, Gu Yan was walking under the dim streetlight, with his head sideways, only one step away from Qi Xi. His tone was calm, but when he talked about the case, his expression was focused and serious, and his handsome and fair profile was calm and indifferent.
Qi Xi suddenly felt a little frustrated.
Not long ago, she was still proud that she had taken the sword and cheated on Pan Zhendong, thus finding a new way to solve Cheng Junliang's predicament. She felt very complacent that she was the only one who came up with this solution.
However, after listening to Gu Yan's words at this moment, Qi Xi knew that Gu Yan probably had thought of this a long time ago, and he was not even guessing like Qi Xi. Just very sure.
He just didn't say anything, and gave Qi Xi the chance to perform.
What humility are you doing!
Qi Xi was so unhappy that she would die. Although she didn't like to lose, she couldn't afford to lose. In the past, Gu Yan was number one every time. She was the second child in a thousand years. Although Qi Xi scolded Gu Yan and stole her away She won the first place, but she also knew in her heart that Gu Yan won it upright, and did not rely on any improper means. She admired Gu Yan to some extent, but Qi Xi's own inner pride made her unwilling to admit this, so she took Gu Yan As an imaginary enemy, Yan Yan always had to curse behind his back to keep himself mentally balanced, and the word "rob" was just a big hat that Ah Q Qixi secretly gave to Gu Yan in such a state of mind.
It's just rubbish Gu Yan, who only comes to play the role of a gentleman now, why didn't I see him give priority to me in the school exam? Let it go even once!
Qi Xi thought so, and couldn't help complaining to Gu Yan.
She thought that Gu Yan would ignore her, but Gu Yan paused and answered her——
"I can't give you the first place."
That's right, "Gu Yan Daquan" said that Gu Yan only cares about the result and doesn't care about the process. The first place in the result is different for him.
Thinking of this now, Qi Xi felt a little relieved: "That's right, who doesn't want to be the first, after all, everyone will only remember the first, not the second."
"I don't care so much about being number one." Unexpectedly, Gu Yan corrected her, and he paused, "It's not that I don't care, it's just that I don't care about it."
Now Qi Xi really became curious: "Who is that for? Is it your sister who is demanding or your parents who are demanding, and you must be the first?"
The answer, however, is not any of these.
"For the girl I like."
?
Qi Xi really couldn't hold back, and even slightly raised his voice: "Why?"
"Because she only looks at the first place."
Gu Yan glanced at Qi Xi, then looked away: "Her eyes will only look at the number one."
Wow! So... so demanding
"Could it be that only the number one can fall in love with her?" Qi Xi was a little bit aggrieved for Gu Yan, and a little bit aggrieved for herself. She thought that every time she lost to Gu Yan, it was because Gu Yan had the same desire to win as she did. Desire, but it took a long time, just for a woman!
"Then where did she rank in the exam? What major is she studying?" Qi Xi also knew that she was venting anger, but she didn't know why, she just couldn't help but be full of hostility and resistance towards Gu Yan, Bai Yueguang, "What is she doing?" How can it be the same as choosing a male concubine? Is it because only the first place is the one with high IQ, so that we can have excellent offspring with her? Don't let her be stupid, the first place can't neutralize her low IQ."
Probably because of Bai Yueguang who attacked Gu Yan, Gu Yan looked at Qi Xi with a complicated expression, but it seemed that Qi Xi's behavior did not make him angry. Moonlight's critique.
The man just said sternly, "You shouldn't scold her."
What he said, it seemed that Qi Xi was not qualified to scold the other party.
However, if ordinary people want to do this, they might jump up and fight Qi Xi. After all, this is Bai Yueguang, who can't ask for it but can't be madly in love. Can he accept being criticized in person
Qi Xi was a little surprised by Gu Yan's reaction, she tentatively said: "You didn't react too much when I scolded her, do you think about it now, you don't actually like her that much anymore?"
Gu Yan pursed his lips and looked at Qi Xi for a long time, so long that Qi Xi felt that he would not answer this question again, and then Qi Xi heard his voice.
"No. I still like her very much." Gu Yan looked away, and instead of looking at Qi Xi, he looked at the green plants on the side of the road, "But you can scold her, only you can, no one else can scold her."
Wow!
It turns out that I still have this privilege, so what Gu Yan meant...
Even if he likes Bai Yueguang to death, Gu Yan tolerates Qi Xi to speak ill of her, rounding it up...
"Gu Yan, do you think I'm a nice person now? I'm worth making friends with?"
Gu Yan didn't make a sound, looked at Qi Xi for a while, and then the man looked away and said, "Barely it's okay."
You know, it's not easy to get Gu Yan's approval. If he says it's okay, then it's really pretty good. After all, he only evaluates the durian he likes so much with two words: "it's okay". It can be seen that this man's requirements are as high as his appearance.
Qi Xi was a little moved, it turned out that in Gu Yan's heart, he already had such a status.
Gu Yan must regard her as a very firm friend to allow this kind of thing to happen!
Qi Xi couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, she was both relieved and inexplicably unhappy, she shook off the messy thoughts in her head, and decided to persuade herself to be happier.
What's there to be upset about
Isn't this the result I have been pursuing all along
I offended Gu Yan before, but now I have finally tried my best to establish a good relationship with Gu Yan, and seeing that the relationship is going well, Gu Yan even regards himself as a good friend...
And this means...
"Gu Yan, do you forgive me?" Qi Xi said sincerely, "I'm sorry, Gu Yan, I misunderstood you at the graduation ceremony and caused you so much trouble. Thank you for being willing to forgive me."
"I didn't forgive you for saying that."
ah
Qi Xi was a little apprehensive, could it be that she hasn't forgiven herself yet
Gu Yan finally turned around and glanced at Qi Xi, his expression was very flat: "Actually, I didn't really hold grudges for this matter before. So I can't talk about forgiveness or not."
That's right, if he really held grudges against him, Gu Yan could sue him for defamation.
The more Qi Xi thought about it, the more he felt that Gu Yan was good-looking, good-looking, and good-natured. Although he had a cold personality, in terms of moral character, he was completely a gentleman.
Now she suddenly fully understands why Gu Yan is so popular in school.
Such a boy is indeed worthy of so many likes, and worthy of so many likes.
Qi Xi was a little sour: "Now I understand why so many women like you."
Qi Xi thought that Gu Yan would not answer this sentence, but to her surprise, Gu Yan seemed unable to hold back the explanation. Qi Xi didn't know who he was telling it to, or it was like self-persuasion. road-
"But I only like one."
Gu Yan's voice was muffled, but his tone was firm.
Qi Xi suddenly became a little irritable for no reason.
She thought, okay, okay, I got it, I got it, the next question!
She tried her best to think of other things to divert her attention. No matter what, she and Gu Yan were able to settle their grievances. After all, it was all due to the credit of "Gu Yan Daquan", if she hadn't found such a Gu Yan Yan Encyclopedia, prescribing the right medicine to suit one's liking, is it possible to get Gu Yan's approval today after suffering all the hardships
Qi Xi glanced at the quiet Gu Yan who was walking beside him, and felt that he had been neglecting to "study" recently, so he had to take a good look at "Gu Yan Daquan" again when he got home.
A few days ago, Qi Xi happened to download a heavy metal rock Xiaobai beginners knowledge gift package, and she decided to start tutoring heavy metal rock knowledge when she got home, and tried her best to have a soul resonance with Gu Yan when she went to the concert with Gu Yan on weekends Communication, can know the knowledge points of heavy metal rock.
Qi Xi thought optimistically, after going to the concert this weekend, she felt that the friendship between her and Gu Yan would be completely stable.
