Traveling on National Day is not a wise choice. After hearing Qiu Ci's complaints countless times, Xi Qingxi said coldly: "Have you said enough? If you talk again, I will throw you off the plane."

Qiu Ci immediately fell silent, and then murmured softly, "Evil capitalist."

Xi Qingxi brows frivolously: "Didn't you want to follow?"

He contacted Qiu Ci a few days ago and asked him if he wanted to go abroad for fun. Qiu Ci said that he didn't have time to accompany Lin Zhizhi, and then Xi Qingxi said lightly: "Bring her, and the expenses will be reimbursed."

Qiu Ci: "Where are you going?"

Xi Qingxi murmured, "Freemanchell."

Freemanchel is a famous historical city in Perth. Xi Qingxi doesn't like to go to those tourist attractions with bad streets, he prefers unpopular places.The slow pace of life in Freemanchel is perfect for unwinding and unwinding.

Stroll along the coffee avenue in the afterglow of the sunset, enjoy the pleasant sea breeze, enjoy the deep singing of street performers, and even have a wonderful encounter.

The man singing has a pair of amorous gray-blue eyes, like the thick mist in the deep forest, blurred and profound.

"Your eyes are beautiful." Xi Qingxi never hesitated to praise.

"Thank you." The man smiled at him, got up and put the guitar in his bag.

Xi Qingxi's eyes widened in surprise: "Aren't you going to perform?"

The man said: "You are the first foreigner to praise me for my good eyes, go to the pub for a drink?"

Xi Qingxi looked down at his watch and nodded in agreement.

The tavern is not too far away, go straight along the street, it is just around the corner.The decoration of the store seems to be old, the walls are mottled, and both sides of the door are full of roses.At this time, the flowering period has passed, leaving only bare branches and leaves, adding a bit of retro charm to the tavern.

"This tavern has been in business for 12 years, and I come here almost every day." The man sat at the bar and ordered two glasses of wine, and spoke to Xi Qingxi familiarly, "Are you here alone?"

"No, with friends." Xi Qingxi paused for a moment, "He went shopping with his girlfriend."

The man was very surprised: "You are so pitiful, oh no, I thought you should also have companions." He stared at Xi Qingxi carefully, "Although I don't understand your oriental aesthetics, at least in my opinion, your The scent is quite outstanding.”

Xi Qingxi nodded slightly: "Thank you."

The wine was quickly handed to Xi Qingxi, and the amber liquid was shaking in the glass, shining brightly under the illumination of the colored lights on the bar.

He picked up the wine glass and drank it down, the spicy taste filled his mouth, and there was a slight burning pain where the liquid flowed through.

The man couldn't hide his amazement in his eyes: "Okay!"

Xi Qingxi wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and said, "This wine is too strong, I don't like it."

The man put his hands together: "Sorry, sorry, do you need a glass of lemonade?"

"No need." Xi Qingxi nodded a little, he shook his head, took out a large bill from his wallet and pressed it under the glass, "I treat you, goodbye."

Ignoring the man's persuasion, Xi Qingxi turned around and left.

It was getting dark outside, the last sliver of the setting sun was still hanging in the sky, and the moon had risen quietly.

Xi Qingxi was about to call Qiu Ci when someone patted his shoulder suddenly. He turned his head to look, and it was the man with good-looking eyes.

"I thought you might need help."

"My friend will come to pick me up." Xi Qingxi looked the same as usual, but in fact he was very likely to become manic and irritable after drinking, so he needed to stay away from all outsiders during this period.

"But..." The man hesitated, "You look terrible." As he spoke, he wanted to reach out to help him.

"Pa——" Xi Qingxi slapped his hand away violently, his face sank like water, his eyes were reddened by the smell of alcohol, and he squeezed out a word between his teeth: "Get lost."

The man was stunned for a long time before he realized it, and raised his voice in disbelief: "You let me go?"

Xi Qingxi suppressed the urge to do something, and said calmly: "Don't follow me."

The man showed a sad look: "I thought we were friends."

"Who the hell is your friend, shameless."

Before Xi Qingxi could speak, a familiar voice came from behind, he paused, and turned around slowly.

The street lights on the side of the road turned on one after another, and he saw Fang Ruogu walking from the light.Xi Qingxi was in a trance for a moment, he suddenly couldn't tell who was running towards him at this moment.

Fang Ruogu spoke Chinese, but the man didn't understand, and looked at Xi Qingxi inexplicably.

Xi Qingxi was too lazy to translate, and let Fang Ruogu pull him to his side, leaning against him with his strength.

Fang Ruogu said in a bad tone: "He is my boyfriend, just leave it to me."

The man took two steps back in embarrassment, scratching his head: "Sorry, I just want to make friends with him."

Fang Ruogu held Xi Qingxi's shoulders tightly, and stared coldly at the man: "You are not qualified."

After sending the street artist away, Fang Ruogu skillfully took him back to his residence, Xi Qingxi asked nonchalantly, "Is it Qiu Ci?"

Fang Ruogu said, "Yes."

He wanted to say something, but Fang Ruogu preempted him.

"I brought the popcorn home, and Sister Yang will help take care of it. My recent work has been overfulfilled, and the company granted me a few days off without delaying my work."

The indoor lighting is soft and warm. Fang Ruogu is bathed in warm light, and the whole person seems to be a gentle embodiment.

"I can not leave you."

Xi Qingxi didn't speak for a long time, and there was a rare peace in his heart, those negative emotions had nowhere to hide under this dazzling light.

"who are you?"

Fang Ruogu hesitated for three seconds, and replied, "I don't know."

He raised his hand to smooth Xi Qingxi's frowning brows, "I just know, I don't want to see you look sad."

"When you talked to him, I almost rushed out, but I'm afraid you don't want to see me."

"You praised him for his good eyes, but you don't know how jealous I am. You never praised me."

"I wanted to take a look and leave, but in the end I couldn't hold back."

The cold moonlight spilled into the house from the window, blending with the warm light.The night wind swayed the shadows of the trees, bringing some coolness.

It was a quiet night, but also a beautiful night.

Xi Qingxi opened his mouth, and found that he could not utter the words of refusal anyway, so he had to settle for the next best thing and choose to remain silent.

Fang Ruogu pressed on step by step: "The reason why you avoid me is actually because you are shaken."

Maybe it was because the alcohol had paralyzed his nerves, or maybe there was no need to hide it, but Xi Qingxi, who was poked in the middle, still didn't respond.

"Yes, I can't let other people control my emotions."

"Why not?" Fang Ruogu asked back, "Emotions are uncontrollable, not to mention your condition has improved, why can't you try?"

Fang Ruogu leaned over and looked at Xi Qingxi, his dark coffee-colored pupils were clear and unadulterated: "Xi San, it's not something to be ashamed of giving your sincerity, it's human nature, even if it's only [-]%."

He closed his eyes, and touched Xi Qingxi's soft lips very lightly and slowly: "You can leave the rest to me."
