Lin had known how bad the road conditions in Beijing were in his previous life, but because he didn't stay in Beijing after graduation, this was his first experience.
He kept urging the taxi driver to speed up along the way, and was almost thrown out of the car by the arrogant Beijing driver.
When I finally arrived at the pick-up area of the airport, the first person I saw was Zhang Jiaqi.
"What's the matter with you, Lin Yi? It's hard for Caiwei to come here, but you are almost late? Their plane has just landed. If you come a little later, they will come out..."
This guy is going on and on, do you think you are a little devil?
Before coming to the airport, Lin Yi visited Zhang Qingyuan in the hospital and explained that "the road conditions were bad" but did not interrupt Zhang Jiaqi's spell casting, so he turned a deaf ear afterwards.
Fortunately, he didn't wait too long. Old Xiong's height stood out among the crowd, and he spotted his old classmate from a distance.
This guy was pushing two suitcases and was one step behind. The person strutting in front of him with his long legs was of course classmate Gu Caiwei.
She was fully armed today, wearing a peaked cap, a black mask and enlarged sunglasses on her face. I wonder if she could see the road clearly.
The reason why this happened was that both Peng Yuchen and Gu Changge told her and Lin Yi to take strict protection when going out, especially not to leave photos outside.
However, the actual effect is not low-key.
Although her face was not shown, her posture was very similar to that of a female celebrity in an airport photo, which caused other passengers around her to look at her with suspicion.
The background toolman Lao Xiong behind her is of course regarded as a bodyguard. It would be even more realistic if his outfit were changed to a suit and sunglasses.
Gu Caiwei had also seen Lin Yi and Zhang Jiaqi a long time ago. She jumped up excitedly and waved, then trotted over in this direction.
Maybe there was someone else present, so this time she didn't throw herself into Lin Yi's arms. Instead, she held hands with Zhang Jiaqi first. The two of them shouted excitedly like they were reunited after a long separation as shown on TV:
"Jia Qi!"
"Caiwei!"
Then the two of them hugged each other.
Lin Yi and Lao Xiong were not so exaggerated. Lin kept telling him what he had just thought: "You look very much like her bodyguard."
"Get out!"
Lao Xiong thrust the pink suitcase lever into Lin Yi's hand: "Tug your girlfriend's suitcase by yourself!"
Lin Yi took it indifferently, not intending to say thank you to him.
In any case, the four people finally met successfully. They took a taxi, and there was no doubt that Lao Xiong sat in the front alone.
Although he had expected this outcome, he was still aggrieved: "Why should I sit in the front and you sit in the back?"
"Because you are fat."
"Go away, I call this strong, strong!"
The meaning of old friends may be to get together and bicker without any scruples. Lin Yi still misses this feeling.
Lin Yi sat in the back row and actually did not hug him. Instead, he huddled humbly in the corner. Gu Caiwei, who was sitting in the middle, ignored him at all and chatted with Zhang Jiaqi the whole time.
The hotel Gu Caiwei booked in advance was in Haidian, not far from Lin Yi and Zhang Jiaqi's school. The taxi drove them to this destination for who knows how long.
The two of them checked in separately in the lobby, and then went upstairs to put their luggage first. Of course, Lin Yi was going to follow Gu Caiwei, but Zhang Jiaqi reached out to stop her:
"Why are you following me?"
Lin Yi was confused: "Why do you think I came here? Do I need your approval to help my girlfriend drag her suitcase now, Lawyer Zhang?"
He found this guy particularly annoying today.
However, Zhang Jiaqi did not give him this chance and snatched the suitcase: "I will help her carry this. You go with Xiong Yucheng first. We will meet in the lobby downstairs later."
"We are best friends who haven't seen each other for so long. We have a lot to say in private. We don't have any eyesight at all. Let's go quickly. Let's go."
What is this thing called?
Lin Yi looked at Gu Caiwei absurdly, who only gave him a helpless look.
Okay, good men don't fight with women.
If Lin Yi didn't want to wait alone in the hotel lobby, he could only follow Lao Xiong to his room. Of course, he was laughed at by the latter.
Lin Yi immediately brought up the scandal about how he had a crush on class leader Jiang Zixuan and then pretended to be a stranger on the Internet to chat with her as a counterattack.
But now that time has passed, Lao Xiong is no longer afraid of this. If it were the monitor's classmate, he might feel embarrassed in front of him. It is impossible for Lin Yi to hurt him in the slightest with this matter.
Not to mention the "deep brotherhood" between Lin Yi and Lao Xiong, on the other side, two good sisters, Zhang Jiaqi and Gu Caiwei, dragged their suitcases into the room arm in arm, and the former immediately shouted exaggeratedly:
"Wow, this place is so big and beautiful. Caiwei, can I sleep with you tonight?"
Gu Caiwei was amused by her reaction. It's not like Zhang Jiaqi had never stayed in a five-star hotel. During the two days of the college entrance examination, she studied at a five-star hotel near Linzhong.
And although they are best friends, they have never slept in the same bed.
"Isn't your school nearby?" Gu Caiwei had booked the hotel here just because it was convenient for her and Lin Yi to go back and forth.
Zhang Jiaqi began to express her bitterness: "After the exams in school, all my roommates went back, so I've been the only one in the dormitory for the past two days. It's so gloomy at night that it's a bit scary."
"Besides, the weather in the capital is so cold. You have to go back and forth from school to the hotel every day and you have to endure the wind from both sides. Are you willing to pick Wei?"
Gu Caiwei intuitively felt that this was not the real reason, because Zhang Jiaqi had always been fearless, and sleeping alone was not worth mentioning.
As for being afraid of being blown by the cold wind, she's not that squeamish either.
Classmate Xiao Gu's IQ was on the line, and he pointed at Zhang Jiaqi suspiciously: "Is there something you are secretly hiding from me?"
Zhang Jiaqi smiled sheepishly and said, "Oh, now that you've noticed, I'll tell you straight away. The dormitory conditions in Jiang University are extremely poor. They don't even turn on the heating enough at night, which caused me to wake up from the cold in the middle of the night."
"If you can't stay in a five-star hotel, why go back and suffer the consequences?"
What she said was half true and half false. The dormitory conditions in Jiangda were not very good, but students were not treated badly when it came to heating.
In the end, she played the emotional card, grabbing Gu Caiwei's hand and saying coquettishly: "Oh, okay, we haven't seen each other for such a long time, and tonight is just the right time for us to talk by candlelight!"
Otherwise, Zhang Jiaqi's acting skills are not bad, and she pretends to be real.
Gu Caiwei saw that she was "sincere", so she happily agreed, not expecting her best friend to have any other ideas.
Zhang Jiaqi breathed a sigh of relief after completing this task, and said in her heart that she was lucky. Thanks to her quick wit and slandering her alma mater, she finally got rid of this girl lake.
Don't blame me, Caiwei, I came to look after you because of Aunt Gu's instructions.
