Waiting for you at the place where you are reborn

After lunch, Wu Linxi walked out of the tea garden. He looked back at the plaque on the gate and asked, "Xishang Tea Garden, does this name have an allusion?"

Qi Xiangtian looked at the plaque and said, "On the brook is a line from Xin Qiji's Qingpingle. Village Life, 'The thatched eaves are low and small, and the grass on the brook is green'; there is also a saying that 'the brook is very clear flowing water, and 'shang' means better quality. The reason why I asked you to come here is because your name also has the word 'brook' in it."

Wu Linxi was shocked. She had been a radio host for four years and had received many compliments. Qi Xiangtian's words moved her. She secretly looked at Qi Xiangtian, who was standing beside her. He was wearing a straight blue shirt and black trousers, tall and straight. She said, "That's great. If I publish a book, I'll also use the pen name 'Xishang'."

"My car is at the door. Did you drive?" Qi Xiangtian asked.

"Yeah, also at the door."

"It takes about 40 minutes from here to school. You can take my car and take a nap in it. I'll ask my assistant to drive your car back to your home."

"It's not a good idea to let your assistant drive the car—" Wu Linxi said, "I have a house right next to it. I can drive back and park it there."

"New house?" Qi Xiangtian asked.

Wu Linxi nodded. "My parents sponsored me to buy this. I live here when I'm at work so that I can be closer to my workplace."

Qi Xiangtian drove behind Wu Linxi's car and arrived at Xin'an Community, which was indeed less than one kilometer away from Xishang Tea Garden.

Wu Linxi went to park the car. Qi Xiangtian stood in the garden of the community waiting for her. Seeing her coming towards him, he said to her: "Live here, you can walk to work."

"Yes..." Wu Linxi raised his head and looked straight ahead, "You can see our radio station building just by looking up."

Qi Xiangtian looked at Wu Linxi with tenderness in his eyes, "It's great to have a child who is loved by his parents!"

Wu Linxi smiled, "How can your parents not spoil you?"

Qi Xiangtian didn't answer. He opened the passenger door and motioned Wu Linxi to sit in.

Sitting next to Qi Xiangtian in the car, Wu Linxi asked: "Where will you work after returning to China?"

"I was originally going to teach at the Communication University, but because Lincheng has built a national big data center, the school has a cooperative project with Shanghai's Qinhe Software Company. By chance, I am currently in charge of Qinhe's Lincheng branch, which is not far from your radio station."

"I stopped being a university professor and became a CEO," said Wu Linxi.

"I am mainly responsible for technology research and development, not management," said Qi Xiangtian.

"I'm planning to do a column on computer science someday and invite you to be a guest. Is that okay?" Wu Linxi asked.

"I'm not good at this, but I can find someone to be on the show for you," said Qi Xiangtian.

Wu Linxi laughed, "I was just kidding. The column is planned by us, and I am only responsible for doing the work."

Qi Xiangtian gripped the steering wheel tightly and glanced quickly at Wu Linxi, the girl who smiled anytime and anywhere. She sat next to him and made him talk several times more than usual, and also had several times more joy.

"Close your eyes and rest for a while. I'll call you when we get there." Qi Xiangtian said.

"Hmm..." Wu Linxi closed her eyes. She had insomnia last night and probably only slept for one or two hours the whole night. She should be tired. But her mind was so excited and her heartbeat was much faster than usual. How could she sleep?

While driving, Qi Xiangtian turned his head from time to time to look at Wu Linxi who was resting with her eyes closed beside him. Compared with four years ago, she had become more feminine and charming, as well as having more independence and confidence as an adult.

He felt like every cell in his body was galloping. Wu Linxi, she was sitting in his car, right next to him.

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the gate of Communication University.

After parking the car, Qi Xiangtian called to her softly, "Wu Linxi, we're here."

Wu Linxi opened her eyes. She had not fallen asleep at all. When she saw Qi Xiangtian looking at her, her heart beat faster. She hurriedly opened the car door and said, "Are we here yet?"

On weekends, there were not many students on campus, and the two walked aimlessly under the shade of the trees on campus.

"The school is still the same, there are no major changes," said Qi Xiangtian.

Wu Linxi pointed to the front and said, "That building is our college's graduate dormitory. The one next to it is where we have our classes. They seem to have not changed at all."

"Are you hot? I'll go get you some water." Qi Xiangtian asked.

Wu Linxi turned her head and looked at him. "It's not hot. The temperature is just right today. It's nice to take a walk." She pointed in the direction of the playground and said, "Last summer, we came here to do an event. The radio station and the TV station worked together. Many of the staff members are graduates of the Communication University."

"Your majors are all elites from Communication University," said Qi Xiangtian.

"I can't compare myself to the top students in your computer department," Wu Linxi said, "Your meticulous logical thinking -"

"——Teacher Qi, how come you have time to come to school? Didn't you go to Shanghai?" A boy came towards him and greeted Qi Xiangtian, interrupting Wu Linxi's words.

"Hello, Teacher Wei, I'm just here to take a look around." Qi Xiangtian said.

"Oh - you brought your girlfriend here to hang out?" The male teacher smiled and glanced at Wu Linxi, "Then I won't bother you. Come to our laboratory when you have time."

"Okay." Qi Xiangtian nodded.

Seeing the male teacher walking away, Wu Linxi said hurriedly: "That's not good. People have misunderstood me."

Qi Xiangtian smiled and said, "At our age, we shouldn't be afraid of being misunderstood."

Wu Linxi smiled and walked forward, saying loudly: "Let's go to the playground and see if there are any classmates playing football."
