Yama

When Yan Cheng arrived at the meeting place, Wu Zixu and the others were already present. This time the venue was booked by Yan Cheng. He did not have the extravagant habits of people like Hong Hao. Although he chose a relatively high-end venue, it was not a membership system. Just to be happy, now that Ji Qiao didn't come, Yan Cheng just wanted to finish eating quickly and go home, fearing that Ji Qiao would have already left before it was too late.

But it can't be too perfunctory, after all, everyone has good intentions, so Yan Cheng patiently accompanied them to eat and drink, and finally received a bunch of gifts, and the dinner was a successful conclusion.

Before leaving, Yan Cheng also asked people to make several fresh dishes, saying that he was afraid that he would be hungry at night and eat them as a supper.

He was leaving the private room and intending to go back, but he didn't want to be blocked by a group of people at the door. There were men and women, most of them were in formal attire, and they seemed to have a bit of status.

Because those people saw Wang Xitang, they immediately greeted him enthusiastically, calling each other "Young Master Wang, Mr. Wang" very affectionately. They probably met a few times on weekdays, and they had a little acquaintance with the mayor, but they were definitely not big men. , so Wang Xitang gave them a polite nod and was about to leave, but these people felt that the opportunity was rare, entangled and unwilling to give up easily, and insisted on dragging them to another place to renew their business.

"Is Young Master Wang out to play with his classmates? My new store just opened two days ago. If Young Master Wang doesn't dislike it, why don't you come and join us? Let's be happy together?" A man invited, he probably didn't know Yan Cheng and Wu Zixu didn't dare to treat them as ordinary people, after all, they were playing with the mayor's son, so who can say for sure what it was.

Wang Xitang didn't remember meeting him, so he shook his head, "No, we have other things to do."

The other end persuaded again, but Wang Xitang still insisted calmly, and Yan Cheng looked at his watch a little annoyed in the courtesy room, thinking to himself that he still chose the wrong place.

Suddenly, he heard Jing Yao gasped softly in surprise, and whispered, "Why is it her?"

Yan Cheng followed her gaze, and saw that what Jing Yao was looking at was a woman, she looked about 30 years old, but she should be in her forties, she was pretty, and she was dressed with taste. At least the men who were two rounds older than her looked at Wang Xitang with smiles.

As if aware of Yan Cheng's attention, the woman looked over, and after they met their eyes, the woman gave them a decent smile.

Yan Cheng was slightly taken aback, she thought the other person looked familiar.

Did you forget about meeting each other?

Thinking about it, Yan Cheng looked back at Jing Yao twice, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you know her?"

Jing Yao observed the other party carefully before retracting her gaze, and said, "Probably mistaken person."

Yan Cheng was not so easy to dismiss, "Who is she?"

Jing Yao didn't speak.

Yan Cheng said directly, "Don't you think that she looks a bit like a person?"

Jing Yao was taken aback, and suddenly asked, "Where's Ji Qiao?"

Yan Cheng said, "He didn't come because of something."

Jing Yao knew that Yan Cheng wasn't telling the truth, just the way he cared about Ji Qiao now, Ji Qiao didn't come to his birthday party, so I don't know what kind of virtue this girl would be entangled in, but seeing Yan Cheng's performance today, he was all smiles Naturally, the smoothness of nature can be described as a quick fix, so it is no wonder that it is not suspicious.But she didn't intend to tell the truth.

Over there, Wang Xitang finally withdrew the hospitality, and led everyone out of the hotel under the reluctant gaze of the passerby.

Before Yan Cheng left, he looked back at the woman. Her back was graceful and slender, and her steps were graceful and graceful. She was indeed a rare beauty, which is why people still remember her so vividly.

When hailing a taxi outside, Yan Cheng said, "Jing Yao, let me take you home."

Of course the others had no objection, Jing Yao hesitated for a while, but also nodded.

The two got into the car together, and after driving for a while, Yan Cheng said, "I've always been curious about one thing, you and Ji Qiao... how did you know each other?"

Jing Yao turned her head and looked out the window, but didn't speak.

Yan Cheng said, "The more you don't say anything, the more strange I feel."

Jing Yao smiled and said, "Then why don't you ask him yourself? You have been together for more than half a year, why has he not revealed any private matters to you?"

Yan Cheng was being stabbed in the most painful foot, and was momentarily at a loss for words.

Seeing him like this, Jing Yao felt refreshed, and added another shot, "I made an agreement with him, I won't tell others." She paused especially on the "others", which is why Ji Qiao has always treated Jing The reason why Yao is still so pleasant is that Jing Yao kept the secret for him, although maybe no one cares about this secret except Yan Cheng, but at least Ji Qiao cares.

Yan Cheng adjusted his mental state and didn't get easily irritated by her. He thought for a while, "Then for me, as long as the guess is right, don't deny it."

Jing Yao remained silent.

Yan Cheng thought to himself, "The last time you and Ji Qiao mentioned the matter of 'returning the handkerchief' in the cafeteria, it should be that you lent him the handkerchief at that time, and people who need handkerchiefs except for eating are usually in a mess. Let’s just guess that I’m here for dinner. You just saw the woman’s reaction and told me that the other protagonist of the incident that day was her. If Ji Qiao’s meeting with that woman was pleasant, I don’t think you need to hide it like this It's a secret, so something must have happened in the middle. As for the relationship between Ji Qiao and that woman, you and I have our own judgments, so the conclusion is that you happened to meet Ji Qiao and that woman for dinner that day, and they had a dispute, which made Ji Qiao encountered something embarrassing, you happened to be there, borrowed his handkerchief and kept it a secret for him, isn't that right?"

Jing Yao was stunned for a few seconds, and reluctantly hooked the corners of her mouth, "Why didn't I realize that you have the potential to be a private detective?"

While teasing Yan Cheng for trying to change the topic, she remembered the situation when she met Ji Qiao for the first time in the restaurant that day.

Jing Yao saw Ji Qiao when he first came in. She knew this boy and mentioned it to Yan Cheng a few times, but she didn't expect to meet him here. The family members drank coffee together, but after a second glance, they found that the atmosphere there was very strange. The two did not talk to each other from the beginning to the end. Ji Qiao kept her head down and read a book with a cold expression, but the woman on the opposite side kept talking. Looking at the watch, the crossed foot also changed from the left foot to the right foot, with an anxious attitude all over her body, as if wishing to leave immediately, but she couldn't do it, she didn't know what was trapping her, she I stood up twice on the way, but was stared back by Ji Qiao coldly. In the end, the woman seemed very displeased, raised her voice and said something to Ji Qiao, and finally poured coffee on Ji Qiao, and then He walked away quickly without looking back.

That's the most embarrassing person Jing Yao has ever seen on a date. That embarrassment is not only embarrassing, but also a feeling of depression, depression, and all kinds of negative emotions. Obviously that person is so faint Sitting here, his expression didn't change much, but looking at the coffee stains dripping down his hair and shirt, his thin and thin back, he felt extremely pitiful for no reason, and couldn't bear to look at him again .

Even the waiter just stood in the distance at a loss, and no one wanted to step forward for a while.

Thus, Jing Yao appeared, and when she handed out the handkerchief, she looked at Shang Jiqian and looked at her, thinking that she didn't expect someone, or he was not fully prepared to defend, and the other party wanted to attack her. He looked over so straight.

Jing Yao thought that Ji Qiao would at least be angry, and no matter how bad she was, she would have an attitude of grievance, but Ji Qiao's eyes were empty, a kind of emptiness that was extremely lonely and cold, without any expression in it, nor Without focus, it looks like a puppet at first glance.

Jing Yao was taken aback, and the next moment Ji Qiao took the handkerchief.

He took it and wiped his book first, then wiped his face, and then said softly, "Thank you." His eyes had returned to normal.

Jing Yao said, "Do you need me to find someone to change your clothes? I know the manager here."

Ji Qiao shook her head, "I will return the handkerchief to you next time."

Jing Yao was not surprised, "You know me?"

Ji quietly nodded.

"I know you too, your name is Ji Qiao, right?"

Ji Qiao didn't respond, he took his things, stood up and walked out, stopped after taking two steps and turned back, "Can you..."

Jing Yao reacted quickly, "I won't tell others, don't worry."

Ji Qiao said "um", and then said "thank you".

……

For a moment, Ji Qiao's indifferent face looking at her in memory overlapped with Yan Cheng's serious face in front of her.

Yan Cheng didn't need Jing Yao's answer anymore, he could tell by looking at her expression.

"Then I'll just ask you one last question, and you can choose not to answer it," Yan Cheng said, "I want to know, when did this happen?"

Jing Yao paused, and then said, "Last year's National Day holiday." Then, she couldn't help reminding, "Ji Qiao has a knot in her heart, if you want to be smart, don't use this to test his bottom line. "

At this time, Yan Cheng still didn't forget to make a comeback, "Thank you for your kindness, I know him better than you."

Jing Yao didn't want to be familiar with him, she looked outside, she was already at the door of her house, she planned to get out of the car, before she left, she suddenly took out a small gift box from her bag and handed it over.

"In fact, I bought this thing a long time ago. I didn't plan to give it away before, but after thinking about it, I'd better give it to you. It's also a deal for myself. I wish you a happy birthday, and I also wish..." She wanted to say "Congratulations You and Ji Qiao can go longer", but felt that this sentence was full of various ambiguities, and finally did not say it.

Yan Cheng took the gift and didn't intend to open it, but just said "thank you".

Jing Yao didn't care, and got out of the car quickly.

When Yan Cheng returned home, Ji Qiao woke up for a while, and was sitting by the bed in a daze.He actually wanted to leave a long time ago, but because he was afraid of bumping into Grandma Yan and the others downstairs, it would be embarrassing, so he was hesitant to find a time to go down, so after thinking about it, he thought that Yan Cheng was back.

When Yan Cheng opened the door and saw Ji Qiao, his heart warmed up. Suddenly, he had an idea, and couldn't stop it for a while: If someday the two of them could move together, he would be able to see each other inside and out every day when he went home. How wonderful it would be to have Ji Qiao by my side...

Ji Qiao saw Yan Cheng looking at him with an inexplicable demented smile, he got up and said, "What are you doing?"

Only then did Yan Cheng regain his senses, walked in and locked the door calmly, took the bag in his hand to show him, "I brought you some food, are you hungry?"

Ji Qiao was really hungry. He was used to Yan Cheng bringing him food at school before, so he sat down again thinking that he would leave after eating.

Yan Cheng neatly prepared Ji Qiao's food, and watched with satisfaction as he slowly delivered chopsticks to his mouth with one chopstick after another. The corners of his mouth never dropped, but when he thought about what happened at the restaurant just now, his expression became complicated again. stand up.
