Chapter 56: He Appears Again
The month-long school closure has ended, and it is already midsummer. Going back to school means taking exams in various subjects, and then there is another two-month summer vacation.
In the next two major classes, in the lecture theater, Qianxi walked along the tree-lined avenue of the campus, cicadas expressed in their voices that it was already summer, but it was extremely cool under the lush sycamore trees.
Under the shade of a tree not far away, a young man was leaning against the painting, holding a paintbrush and depicting the scenery of the artificial lake on the drawing board. Qian Xi approached him from behind and poked his head directly into his drawing board.
"Wow, this is a photo!" Qian Xi exclaimed.
"Peeping is not polite behavior." He pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, without looking back, and continued to add two strokes on the drawing paper.
"Didn't I meet you by chance? I'm curious about what you drew. I haven't seen you for a long time. Is your health okay?" Qian Xi straightened up and sat down directly next to him.
"Xiaoshang, I'm not as delicate as a girl." Qian Xi curled her lips. Jian Mo is really difficult to chat with.
"I keep saying that I want to visit you, but I never get the chance." She obviously lacked confidence. When Sister Jian Shu came to the house, Qian Xi promised to visit Jian Mo, but as time went by, she forgot about it.
"I only accept the result, not the process. The result is that you didn't come." Jian Mo's words were cold, and he was chatting to death again.
There were three big black lines hanging on Qian Xi's forehead. What he said was right. After all, he saved her life.
"I'm sorry, I rarely go out. Brother Zi'an and the others are busy. If you don't accept the explanation, it's my fault anyway. Anyway, I still have to thank you." Qian Xi said a lot incoherently, facing Jian Mo.
She is a highly intelligent creature that cannot grow oil and salt, and her rank is still far behind.
"Thank you? If you don't know, just say it." Jian Mo put down the brush in his hand and turned to look at Qian Xi. The eyes under the frame were full of concentration.
Seeing Jian Mo look like this, Qian Xi felt butterflies in her heart. She really didn't know how to thank her. What else could a young man like Jian Mo lack?
"Tell me, how do you want me to thank you? You saved me, you have the final say." Qian Xi added bravely.
The young man pretended to be thoughtful for a while, "I didn't eat at noon, please treat me to a meal." Jian Mo said something calmly.
Qian Xi was shocked. She thought Jian Mo would ask for something, but she didn't expect that he just asked her to buy a meal?
"Let's go to the school cafeteria. I'll treat you to dinner." Qian Xi was afraid that he would regret it, so she stood up quickly.
"The school cafeteria wants to send me away for saving my life?" Qian Xi was speechless again. The restaurant of Yingcai Academy was comparable to the restaurant outside, and he actually said it was a cafeteria.
"Then what do you want to eat?" Qian Xi asked helplessly.
"Let's go out to eat." A hint of cunning flashed in Jian Mo's eyes.
"But I have classes later!"
"Then we'll skip class."
""
The life-saving grace was the greatest, Qian Xi finally followed Jian Mo obediently, but she didn't expect Jian Mo to stop in front of a low wall.
"You didn't tell me to turn it over!" Qian Xi said with disbelief on her face.
"Yeah." Jian Mo hummed softly, confirming Qian Xi's idea.
"We can obviously go out through the gate. You, a young master of the Jian family, who dares to stop you!" Qian Xi couldn't accept Jian Mo's thinking at all.
Before Qian Xi could finish speaking, Jian Mo jumped up easily and climbed up the wall, "If you skip class, you'll have to look like you're skipping class. You've climbed the seventeenth floor, so what does this wall mean? Let's review it." He said
Squatting on the top of the wall, he stretched out his hand to Qian Xi below. Under the shade of the tree, the wall-climbing boy had a cold and evil smile on his lips.
Qian Xi looked up at Jian Mo on the wall, sighed deeply, and stretched out her hand. Jian Mo grabbed her. With Jian Mo's strength, Qian Xi also climbed up.
"How do you feel?" He raised his face and looked at Qian Xi sitting on the wall.
"I feel so nostalgic!" Qian Xi rolled her eyes at him and shouted every word loudly.
"Just miss me. I'll go down first and catch you later." Jian Mo's face, with a smile that he didn't even notice, looked particularly bright in the sun.
He jumped down, patted the dust on his body coolly, raised his hands, and prepared to pick up Qian Xi.
"Come down."
Qian Xi didn't make any more ink marks and jumped directly towards Jian Mo's trajectory. Jian Mo held her firmly in his arms. Qian Xi put her arms around Jian Mo's neck and touched the ground on her toes. A scent of fragrance hit her face.
Coming, Jian Mo helped Qian Xi steady before letting go of her hand, but she felt nostalgic for a moment.
Qian Xi straightened her clothes, "Where are we going now?"
"Go to the parking lot to get the car." Jian Mo put his hands in his pockets and walked ahead.
"Parking lot? Isn't that the school gate? Why do we have to climb out from here?" Qian Xi shouted, stepping on high heels to catch up with Jian Mo as he walked away.
Qian Xi sat in the passenger seat of a white Maserati and cast a displeased glance at Jian Mo. He was obviously playing with her, "You look so elegant and fair, but in your heart you are not the same as Su Sheng."
Just as shady, no, your level is definitely higher than him." Qian Xi said angrily.
"I don't like comparing myself to others." Jian Mo's expression calmed down and he stepped on the accelerator. Qian Xi was so frightened that he pulled on the safety armrest.
Finally, the fatal speed car stopped at an alleyway.
"Lihua Lane?" After getting out of the car, Qian Xi read the street sign in front of her. This was just a small alley. Why did Jian Mo bring her here? Didn't he ask her to treat her to dinner? Shouldn't it be some high-end restaurant or something?
Jian Mo didn't say anything, but motioned her to go in with his eyes. Qian Xi followed him. Two minutes later, her face started to be filled with excitement.
"Wow! So many snacks!" This alley is filled with various snack shops from beginning to end, including octopus balls, sizzling squid, glutinous rice dumplings, and lotus leaf chicken.
"Ah, I like eating this! I haven't eaten it since I came to Market A!" Qianxi ran directly to a stall and looked at the taiyaki in the stall with shining eyes.
"Would you like a beautiful lady?" the hawker greeted quickly when he saw a customer coming to his door.
"Yes! Boss, give me two! I want red bean filling. Hey, Jian Mo, what kind of filling do you want?" Qian Xi ordered the boss, while not forgetting to turn around and ask Jian Mo behind him what flavor he wanted.
.
"Just the same." There was a faint smile on his lips, and his whole aura became softer.
"Okay, two taiyaki with red bean filling." The boss shouted, Qian Xi reached out to take it hurriedly, Jian Mo shook his head with a smile and paid the boss.
"Wow, it's delicious, I miss the taste so much." Qian Xi took a bite and exclaimed, "Here, try it, it's super delicious!" She handed the other one in her hand to Jian
street.
Jian Mo tore open the paper bag and took a bite, "How is it, how is it, isn't it great!"
"Well, it tastes good." Jian Mo nodded, expressing satisfaction with the taste.
"Come on, come on, there's fried yogurt ahead!" Qian Xi didn't wait for Jian Mo to breathe, then grabbed his arm and ran to the next stall.
Soon, Qian Xi's hands were full of various kinds of skewers, and even Jian Mo's hands were full.
Jian Mo sat down at a dining table in front of a stall and pointed to the stall's sign, "Do you still want to eat?"
Qian Xi looked up and saw that it was the ice powder she had been saying all the time. "Uh huh huh!" Qian Xi nodded desperately. There was too much food in her mouth, so she could only say "um huh huh" indistinctly.
sound.
Jian Mo put the food in his hands on the table and walked directly to the stall. Not long after, he came back with two bowls of ice powder.
Jian Mo's eating style was also very polite. He was basically watching Qian Xi eat. Qian Xi also let herself go and enjoyed eating. Until Qian Xi patted her belly, drank the last mouthful of ice powder, and smiled happily.
Had a burp.
"I didn't expect you to be a foodie." Jian Mo said casually.
Only then did Qian Xi realize her gaffe. Seeing so many delicious foods, she completely forgot about it. She suddenly realized that the person sitting with her at the roadside stall eating was actually Jian Mo! Jian Mo actually brought her to eat at the roadside stall.
Things! Even Yi Xia, who is closest to her, has never taken her to eat. Wang Ma often complains that the food outside is unclean.
Jian Mo was still wearing a white shirt, and the environment of the roadside stall did not conceal his elegant temperament. Qian Xi did not see a trace of disgust on his face, as if he was accustomed to everything.
"I'm so happy today. I haven't eaten these snacks for a long time. Thank you. I really didn't expect that a pampered young man like you would actually eat from a roadside stall."
"Didn't you eat it too?" he asked with raised eyebrows.
"I'm not a wealthy young lady. I didn't grow up with a silver spoon in my mouth." Qian Xi took it smoothly. Jian Mo paused in his movements. Looking at Qian Xi's expression, it didn't look like he was lying.
It was a subconscious answer. Could it be that she was just an ordinary girl? How could she be so happy eating at a roadside stall if she was rich? Jian Mo had a complicated expression. It would be great if she was an ordinary girl, but she was involved in Zuo Su.
Home.
"Oops! You said I was treating you to dinner, but I just ate all the way, and you paid for it!" Qianxi suddenly exclaimed, and she jumped from one stall to another along the way, just getting food. Where?
Remember to pay?
"Then do you want to treat me to another meal?" He raised his head and looked at Qian Xi's face seriously.
"Ah? But I can't eat anymore." Her stunned expression made Jian Mo couldn't help laughing.
"Then let's do it next time." He lowered his head and took a spoonful of ice powder in the bowl.
"Okay, okay, there are a lot of things here that I haven't eaten before!" She was happier than a child who got candy, and a mouthful of ice powder choked Jian Mo's throat.
After eating and drinking, the two of them walked side by side on the road to eat. The sun was setting, and the sunset glow connected the sky. It was so beautiful that the shadows of the two were stretched very long.
Jian Mo suddenly stopped and whispered, "City A is not suitable for you, go back."
The surprise on Qian Xi's face turned into a helpless smile in an instant. She had the right to choose whether to stay or go. Looking up at the sky, she also thought about her grandma and Maoqiu in the distance, the old yard, and the jujube tree under the tree.
Swing. "Did I eat you up? After eating you, you drove me away!" Qian Xi said with a smile, without any trace of melancholy from before.
