Chapter 17 Bookstore

Xiao Siyi opened his eyes and felt his head hurt a bit, and then looked around: the curtains were not drawn, but it was obvious that it was a sunny day outside, and the sunlight was stubbornly shining in through the gaps.

She drank the clear water placed on the bedside table in one gulp, and the dry cough in her throat was relieved a bit.

Lifting off the quilt, she found that her clothes from last night had been changed, she stroked her head.

This feeling of being cared for is really embarrassing.

While feeling annoyed, there was a slight sound from the door, and then Xiao Qingming tiptoed in with a bag of fruit. Seeing Xiao Siyi who was already awake, she put down the fruit and walked towards Xiao Siyi quickly.

"woke up?"

"Um…"

"Are you hungry, do you want something to eat?"

"I'm not hungry, I just have a headache."

"Then I'll rub it for you." After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Xiao Siyi's answer, and sat beside her and leaned over to help Xiao Siyi press his temples.Xiao Siyi originally wanted to refuse, but he felt very comfortable, so he closed his eyes and let her press.

"Old sister, yesterday... were you and Lin Qiao brought me back?"

"Well, you, it's too heavy. She and I have put in a lot of effort."

Xiao Siyi blushed and didn't speak any more. After a while, he continued to ask.

"What about Lin Qiao and Lao Kang?"

"They came to see if you were awake in the morning, so they went out to watch the football game."

"Oh, what time is it?"

"It's already one o'clock."

God, I have slept for so long.

As if answering Xiao Siyi's question, Xiao Qingming said, "You're all exhausted this month, it doesn't matter if you sleep more."

Xiao Siyi slowly opened his eyes, and saw Xiao Qingming helping her hold her head with a serious face.

"Old sister, have you eaten? You've been with me all this time, you didn't go with them? You've been here for two days, haven't you gone to play?"

"Fool, how can I leave you alone."

After hearing this, Xiao Siyi was moved and grabbed Xiao Qingming's hand.

"Wait for me to get dressed, and I'll take you out for a walk."

After checking the route, Xiao Siyi immediately made a decision. Xiao Qingming works in a publishing house and usually doesn't like to be noisy, so it may not be suitable for her to go shopping in Hong Kong. It just so happens that there is a relatively large bookstore not far from here. Maybe it's with my sister's appetite.

Xiao Siyi didn't guess wrong at all, Xiao Qingming, who let Xiao Siyi pull him, didn't ask where to go, as long as he could accompany her, but his eyes lit up when he found out that the destination was a bookstore.

Xiao Siyi knew that he had come to the right place when he saw the old lady who was dragged by him at first ran in front of him. As soon as he entered the bookstore, he saw Xiao Qingming was like a little girl, looking left and right. She didn't let her go, her expression of joy was beyond words, and after a while, she realized that Xiao Siyi was still standing beside her, feeling a little sorry.

"It's okay, old lady, just look at yourself, I'll sit next to you for a while."

"Is it okay? I'm sorry, Siyi, for ignoring you. I'll be done soon."

"Hey, I don't hate bookstores. I can read books myself. Take your time and come here after a while. Come and find me when you're done reading. I won't leave."

Xiao Qingming's expression was still not relaxed, Xiao Siyi said that he was not a child, he knew how to take care of himself, so he pushed Xiao Qingming away, seeing Xiao Qingming not at ease when he left, Xiao Siyi wiped his sweat, how does the old lady live The older you get, the more you treat yourself as a child?

Xiao Siyi, who is alone, stops and stops, and usually does not have the habit of deliberately reading books. What he reads most is music scores and textbooks, so his feelings for bookstores are not as sacred as Xiao Qingming, but the books here are different from those in the mainland, maybe I was able to find books of new types of music, and with the mentality of giving it a try, I just walked and read all the way, and after a while, I suddenly stopped.

Isn't this the reference book that Qu Yao sent to herself before?Traditional Chinese version?

Xiao Siyi picked it up curiously and looked at it for a couple of times, then put it down quickly, ah, the vertical version, it's so hard to look at.After putting down the book, I found other books next to it. I looked up at the sign. Did I go to the design section?No wonder the types are the same

There was no special purpose in the first place, but she also became interested. She just flipped through the book and slowly read it. The content in the book was very interesting, and she read it for a long time without knowing it. Some views also resonate particularly because of my own work.

By the time Xiao Qingming patted herself on the shoulder, it was almost evening.

"I'm going to check out, do you have any books you want to buy, together?"

Xiao Siyi took a look at the book in his hand, and suddenly felt that it was very suitable for Qu Yao. He would be very happy to buy it back and give it to her, and it could be regarded as flattering his boss.Then happily handed the book to Xiao Qingming.

Xiao Qingming was a little surprised to get the book.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, I thought you would buy a few books related to music."

"Haha, design is my job."

After leaving the bookstore, the two of them found a place to eat. Along the way, Xiao Qing was obviously very happy, walking very briskly, carrying a paper bag of books in her hand, Xiao Siyi was afraid that she would be heavy, so she offered to help carry it, but Xiao Qingming refused Yes, look at it now, but she walks lightly while holding the book.

"What's the matter, so happy, have you found a treasure?" Xiao Siyi couldn't help asking.

"Well, this one." Xiao Qingming stopped, took out the book, shook it seriously in front of Xiao Siyi, and then hugged it in her arms.

"'Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit'? What is this?"

"This book, the e-book version is not complete, the physical book has long been out of print, and all the reprints are sold online. I have been searching for a long time but I can't find it.

Then, I asked the staff with the mentality of giving it a try, and it turned out to be true!

And ah, this is the only one in the entire bookstore! "

After speaking, his face was full of happiness, and then he continued to walk forward. Xiao Siyi was also infected by this happy emotion. Looking at Xiao Qingming who was different from usual, he smiled.

It turns out that before writing, there are readers first, and then work.

It was past seven o'clock when we returned to the hotel after eating, and the two of them were a little tired after walking for a long time. Xiao Siyi ran to his bed and collapsed after returning home, while Xiao Qingming found a change of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Xiao Siyi flipped through the books he bought for Qu Yao in the afternoon, and remembered Qu Yao as he flipped through the pages. Just as he was thinking that the result would be like winning a lottery, he really received a message in his mailbox. Even with his eyes closed, he knew it was her. At the beginning of the year, who would send an email to himself when he asked for leave?

Turning on the phone, it was indeed her. Seeing Qu Yao's evaluation of the homework he had handed in earlier, Xiao Siyi curled his lips, this guy, he even asked for leave and didn't forget to work.

After thinking for a while, I replied: Don't you know that I asked for leave?Employees need rest too.

After a while: I know, I don’t want you to change it now.

what are you doing?

Reading.

Xiao Siyi took a photo of the book in his hand and sent it over, with the attachment: For you.

There was no reply from the other side, Xiao Siyi waited for a while, and then there was a ding.

Thanks.Is Hong Kong fun?

Haha, although I didn't say it.But she knew she must be very happy now.

It's fun, it's very fun, if you want to come in the future, I can be your guide!

Xiao Qingming dried her body, put on a bathrobe, and came out wiping her hair, only to see Xiao Siyi holding her phone and laughing non-stop.

"Siyi, it's your turn."

"Oh, okay, wait a minute."

"What makes you so happy?"

"Hahaha, Qu Yao, she has lived to this day, but she only has email as her contact method, and WeChat has nothing at all!! Hahaha, don't you think it's strange."

Xiao Qingming's face darkened.

Xiao Siyi continued to reply: Don't you think it's too inconvenient to communicate only by email?

"Ding!": I've never chatted with anyone by email.

Xiao Siyi thought about it and felt that it was the same thing. Qu Yao Wannian Yujie had a big face and couldn't say anything except work.But this sentence made her not know how to reply, after thinking for a while, there was no movement from Qu Yao's side.That's right, it's so late, they should be asleep, then Lin Qiao and the others must have come back, I'll take a shower later and go take a look.

When Xiao Siyi was about to get up, Qu Yao sent a message, which was a string of characters, and it read: My WeChat ID.

It turned out that Qu Yao just created WeChat for herself.

Xiao Siyi smiled, opened WeChat, and applied for friends, it didn't take a moment.

I passed your friend verification request, now we can start chatting.

"Dong dong dong".

"Who?"

"I, Xiao Siyi!"

The door opened, revealing Lin Qiao's face as a chicken thief.

"What's wrong, this look?"

"It's nothing, come in quickly."

Xiao Siyi was pulled in by Lin Qiao, and then closed the door. Lin Qiao's room was obviously much messier, clothes, pants and shopping were casually thrown aside, Xiao Siyi carefully found an empty place to sit on the bed go up.

"Why so mysterious?"

"Hush!" Lin Qiao made a silent gesture.He straightened up and leaned against the wall and listened carefully to the movement outside. After a while, he sighed and sat next to Xiao Siyi as if he had let go of his burden. Xiao Siyi saw that Lin Qiao was sitting on the clothes. Tight, pulled the clothes out from under her buttocks, then carefully folded them and put them aside, asking while folding, "What's the matter?"

Lin Qiao didn't care about Xiao Siyi's actions, and replied with a serious expression: "It's nothing, Paul and Lao Kang had a conflict today after watching the football game. The two of them kept fighting on the way back. I just entered the door. I was afraid that they would quarrel, so Been listening."

"Did they quarrel today?"

"Well, I didn't enjoy watching it anyway. Paul kept a cold face and didn't say a word. When I asked Lao Kang, he also had a black question mark on his forehead. Maybe some things were not noticed and provoked Paul."

"Hey, that's a small fight, don't worry, Paul is so gentle, the two of them shouldn't quarrel."

Lin Qiao turned his head and glanced at the direction where Lao Kang and the others lived, and said he hoped, but didn't say any more.

Seeing Lin Qiao's worried look, Xiao Siyi patted her and said, "I'll ask Paul on the way back tomorrow. I'm an outsider, so he shouldn't be angry with me."

Lin Qiao nodded. Xiao Siyi was really not used to seeing the heavy face of Lin Qiao who was usually indifferent. She wondered if those two people were really serious?But it didn't sound like it. It might be that Lin Qiao was usually more sensitive so he cared more.

In order to make Lin Qiao stretch his brows, Xiao Siyi began to talk to her about things in the band and daily life. While talking, Lin Qiao gradually relaxed, and then brought up the funny attribute. He started to make fun of Xiao Siyi.

The two chatted until very late, and when he looked at his watch later, it was getting late, Xiao Siyi was about to go back to his room to sleep, and before he left, he seemed to think of something suddenly, and asked inadvertently.

"By the way, I drank too much last night, so I don't remember it, but before I left, I saw that you seemed to be very surprised at the end. What happened?"

Lin Qiao was smiling at first, but when she heard this, she froze in place, and said in silence for a while, "It's nothing, you remember wrongly."

Xiao Siyi was surprised by Lin Qiao's appearance, but there was nothing wrong with it, so he said goodbye and went back to his room.

After returning to the room, I found that my mobile phone by the bed was gone, and I searched around but couldn't find it, so I yelled at Xiao Qingming who was washing clothes, old lady, did you see my mobile phone?

I saw Xiao Qingming poking her head out of the bathroom, holding her mobile phone, and smiling embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, Siyi, I accidentally fell into the water."

Xiao Qingming's smile made people unable to see the smile.

The author has something to say:

The book "Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit" is very good to read, and Xiao Qingming's experience is a true portrayal of when I bought this book.
