The team arrived in Jichu and parted ways.

Qiao Dongyang asked them to go to the Aerospace City first and accompany Chi Yue back to the Moon Dock by himself.

After leaving the serious team, the two of them suddenly relaxed a lot and their itinerary became more comfortable.

When I left the county town, it was already late. I took a taxi to Wanli Town, and it was already dark. The wind and sand were strong at night, and the weather was extremely bad. The driver refused to go forward no matter what. Qiao Dongyang said he would give the price double, and he was unwilling to send them to Moon Dock.

"Don't force him." Chi Yue stopped Qiao Dongyang's persuasion, "Let's stay in the town for one night and leave tomorrow morning."

"Is it easy to call a taxi in the town?"

"You can have some motorcycles!"

"……All right."

In bad weather, money is not the most important thing, life is that Chi Yue thanked the driver, took her luggage down and looked around.

"We still stayed in the hotel last time, right?"

“Is there any other hotel?”

“Not.”

"Then you still ask."

“…Will you feel like you have the right to choose?”

"What a little machine ghost." Qiao Dongyang smiled and took the luggage from her hand, "Let's go. I'll let you arrange it tonight!"

“…”

In this small town, there are almost no night walkers at this point. The night lights are dim, pulling the shadows of the two of them very long. The wind suddenly blows, making the scarf flutter. Walking forward silently, Chi Yue thought of Qiao Dongyang, who arrived in the aerospace city for the first time by helicopter.

At that time, someone was full of energy, high-profile and cool, and countless people surrounded him wherever he went—

Now, I was thrown into this desert town by car and walking with a suitcase against the wind. It is really hard to describe.

puff!

Chi Yue smiled unkindly.

"What are you laughing at?" Qiao Dongyang glanced sideways.

"...I'll laugh at you." Chi Yue's lips were sagging, and her eyes were filled with laughter. "What do you think when you go to Wanli Town again?"

Qiao Dongyang raised his eyebrows, looked at the town under the night sky, and touched his chin, "I think of it, I almost gave up my life here. Fortunately, my wife, the beauty, saved the hero..."

"Go to yours! Why are you so poor?" Chi Yue dragged him to the hotel and walked and chatted, "It's so late, the hotel may not have hot water."

"Wait a minute." Qiao Dongyang suddenly called her.

Chi Yue turned around, "What's wrong?"

“Buy a pack of cigarettes!”

Chi Yue glanced at him and didn't say anything.

Since he said he had quit smoking last time, Qiao Dongyang has rarely smoked. Apart from necessary social engagements and showing off, he basically doesn't smoke normally, at least he won't smoke in front of her.

...

The rolling shutter door of the convenience store next to the hotel was lowered half. In the light of the light, the boss sat on a chair and watched TV series. The cigarette cabinet at the door was full of low-priced cigarettes.

There is a business coming to this point. The boss's wife yawned and stood up, looking reluctantly at the TV hanging on the wall.

"What cigarette do you want?"

Qiao Dongyang frowned, and his slender cell phone slid over the glass counter and then slid over, seemingly unsatisfied, and finally knocked on one casually, "Just this."

This is not the brand he usually smokes. If he wants to smoke, he can only say that he is in a depressed mood and needs cigarettes to save his life.

Chi Yue glanced at him and didn't say anything.

...

Here, it was very inconvenient to stay in the hotel late at night. What was rare is that the owner of the hotel recognized them at a glance and greeted them with a warm look on his face.

This spot has indeed stopped supplying hot water, but it is easy for acquaintances to do business, so the boss’s wife made an exception to open hot water for them.

Chi Yue said a lot of words of thanks, and the boss lady took them all the way to the door.

After opening the door and giving the key, the boss's wife stood there, seemingly unwilling to finish her feelings, looking reluctant to leave.

池月微笑,“还有什么事吗?”

The boss lady laughed, "You are back this time, it's a project from Moon Dock... Are you going to start again?"

Chi Yue: “…”

Wanli Town is small and has no resources. The poor towns in poor counties live a tight life. Therefore, the Moon Dock project is not only the hope of the three villages near Yueli Town, but also the same expectation for the residents of Wanli Town. If Yueli Town becomes a national tourist attraction, then Wanli Town is the biggest beneficiary.

Chi Yue glanced at Qiao Dongyang, "I will start it again, don't worry."

She answered vaguely, but the boss's wife's eyes lit up. She looked at her and laughed, and said something about homely.

Finally, seeing Chi Yue a little impatient, she suddenly stopped her mouth and said mysteriously: "The last time those two guys died tragically in my store, do you still remember the cutting? Oh, you don't know. After you left, the police came to investigate many times... I heard recently that the murderer was caught, right?"

...Is gossip spreading so far?

Chi Yue had a smile on the corner of her lips and shook her head, "I don't know this either."

"Oh." The boss lady was a little disappointed, and then smiled awkwardly, "Okay, it's getting late, I won't bother you anymore. Go to bed early and go to bed early. If you have any need, come to me at any time."

"Okay, good night!"

...

When I closed the door, a strange smell came out in the air.

On this deep night, the sensing of the nose is particularly clear.

After the shutdown of the Moon Dock project, the traffic volume in Wanli Town has also been reduced. I don’t know how long it took to stay in this room. Although the bedding and facilities look neat,... this feeling of lack of living and popularity makes people feel uncomfortable.

Chi Yue touched her hand and patted her, "Go and take a shower."

Qiao Dongyang nodded and took out the toiletries from his suitcase, "You first."

"Um?"

"I remember that the hot water here is provided regularly. If I don't have hot water after washing, how do you wash it? Go, my young man, there is no hot water, and cold water can be used."

Chi Yue smiled, tiptoed and kissed him gently on his cheek, "Thank you Brother Da Qiao!"

Qiao Dongyang raised his lips lightly and rubbed her head, "Go quickly!"

Chi Yue took the toiletries into the bathroom. Qiao Dongyang sat down silently and tore open the packaging of the cigarette, squinted his eyes and looked at the simple room.

A bed, two chairs, an old TV, and a small cabinet. It seems that it is difficult for a big man like him to get off his feet if he is small.

He didn't say anything, opened the door, leaned alone at the door, smoking silently.

Chi Yue walked out with her dripping head and saw a tall silhouette. Under the dim light, she seemed to have entered a state of meditation. The cigarette was almost burning to her fingers, and she didn't see any movement.

"Do you buy cigarettes to smoke mosquitoes?" Chi Yue smiled.

Qiao Dongyang turned around, immediately squashed the cigarette, threw it into the trash can, and took a towel from the suitcase to wipe her head. He was a little blamed, "Why did you wash your hair?"

"I was running around for a day and I was sweating all over and my head was a little itchy."

"The hair dryer here is not working well, and you don't know."

“…I remember I brought the hair dryer? No?”

"No. I just saw it."

"I have cleaned it up, maybe I forgot to put it in. Look at my memory. It doesn't matter. I tried the hotel. If it doesn't work, I put my head on the bed and hang it, and it will dry in a while. The air here is dry, and there is no moisture..."

Qiao Dongyang went to get the blowing air in silence.

really--

He said it was right.

This blowing is like not having a meal, and there is no enthusiasm for work at all.

I whimpered twice, stopped, pressed again, and whined again, but it was not powerful.

Chi Yue's head is long, I don't know when to blow this...

"I'll go find the boss's wife." Qiao Dongyang was about to go out with a calm face.

"Oh no," Chi Yue called him, "It's really okay, I used to do this..."

Qiao Dongyang glanced at her, "That was before. You didn't have me before."

“…”

He walked out in Chi Yue's eyes that had just rolled up.

"well!"

Chi Yue sat down and wiped her head slowly.

Actually... she is in good health and really doesn't think it's a big problem.
