When Li Yang and the others returned to the dormitory after their evening self-study, I was sitting on the bed concentrating on practicing Qi. After what happened to Old Man Xuanyi, I realized how insignificant I really was.
"Hu Ling, don't you have a stomachache? Why didn't you sleep? Are you feeling better? Are you practicing yoga?" Liu Yang fully exuded the warmth of the central air conditioner.
I opened my eyes, climbed off the bed and walked into the bathroom to start washing up. "Well, my stomach doesn't hurt anymore when I sit down."
Coming out of the bathroom, Li Yang pulled me and said, "If I had known earlier, you wouldn't have to go back to the dormitory to rest. Jiang Meili didn't come to class at night, so the classroom was very lively. Everyone was talking about Chen Shanshan, and said it must be because of
Yuan Xiaodan was unwilling to die, so he came to Chen Shanshan to seek justice!"
As she spoke, she sighed and said: "Oh, Yuan Xiaodan died so pitifully. It turns out that Chen Shanshan did all these things!"
"Poor people must be hateful. If she hadn't volunteered to take the blame for her in order to curry favor with Chen Shanshan, would these things have happened?" Wan Hong interjected.
I glanced at her, and she was looking at me, their eyes met, and they both looked at each other and smiled.
A good friendship should be a tacit mutual appreciation. Although Wan Hong and I are not as close as each other, and our relationship seems not as close as her and Zhao Fan, this tacit understanding makes people feel extremely warm.
Li Yang was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at me worriedly and asked: "Hu Ling, do you think that if Yuan Xiaodan comes back unwillingly, as the classmates said, will she come back to scare us?"
"Have you done anything to feel sorry for her?" I looked at her with a smile.
"No, no, after Teacher Zuo asked us not to tell anyone about it, I never mentioned it to anyone, let alone her." Li Yang waved his hands repeatedly.
"Then what are you afraid of?" I looked out the window and said, "If it is really Yuan Xiaodan who came back to do it, Chen Shanshan has already admitted her mistake in public, and her obsession has been put down, and she should go back to reincarnation.
.”
Li Yang nodded and felt relieved. I was about to walk away when she suddenly pulled me nervously and whispered: "Hu Ling, they all said that Chen Shanshan's voice when she yelled at Jiang Meili to get away looked very much like Yuan Xiaodan!"
"Okay, don't scare yourself. Even she is gone now!" I patted her shoulder and said.
I really don’t know how Li Yang can be so timid when he is so tall.
After that day, Chen Shanshan did not come to school again. Later, she heard that her father had transferred her to a provincial capital to attend high school.
The story of Yuan Xiaodan and Chen Shanshan has become a talking point among students in our school for a long time. Jiang Meili is still our class teacher. As for Zuo Jianqiu, he stayed in the school library after returning from class. I went to the library several times on weekends to review.
When I met him, he was still elegant and approachable, and even the frown that had been frowning before relaxed, which made me feel that he was more suitable for working in the library.
Just when I thought Chen Shanshan's matter was in the past, I met Mr. Bai, the old man in Xuanyi, again.
That day happened to be the weekend, and I didn't go home. When I came out from the library to review, it was already getting late. I stretched, twisted my stiff body, and raised my feet to walk to the dormitory.
A bird with pure white feathers flew in front of me.
The white bird kept flapping its wings in front of me, with round black eyes and a white halo all over its body.
I stretched out my hand and held the little bird in my hand. Just as I expected, the little white bird turned into a small paper crane.
A thought flashed through my mind - could it be that Gu Xiwen is back?
I gently unfolded the paper crane with expectation, and on the white paper it was written in small letters, "Turn left two hundred meters outside the school gate, please come to table No. 4 of Time Dessert House!" The signature was Bai Qi.
Bai Qi?
I thought about it and couldn't remember that I knew a person named Bai Qi.
Should I go or not? I was a little hesitant. This was the first time someone in the Feng Shui profession came to me. No matter who the person was, it would be a bit cowardly if I didn't go.
Thinking of this, I put the piece of paper in my hand into my pocket, turned around and walked out of the school gate.
Time Dessert is more like a high-end coffee shop than a dessert shop. Although it is not far from the school, I have never been in it. Judging from the store decoration, it is not a place that a poor student like me can afford.
I touched my pocket, and there was still two hundred yuan in it for living expenses that I just took out in the afternoon. If I need to pay for it myself, it should be enough.
When I walked to the door, the doorman opened the door with a smile on his face and said without looking down on me as a poor student: "Welcome to Temporary Dessert House!"
I made up my mind and continued walking inside.
The space is large, dotted with green potted plants everywhere, each booth is separated by crystal bead curtains on all sides, and the booths by the window are hung with heavy curtains.
Large irregular crystals are used to write elegant golden numbers on the top of the bead curtain.
Booth No. 4 is right next to the window, with the curtains drawn so that no one can be seen inside, giving people a sense of mystery for no reason.
I walked over and stretched out my hand to open the beaded curtains and curtains. The light was a little dim. The man in black who was looking down at the menu raised his head and looked at me. I was immediately stunned.
Mr. Bai, the old man in black clothes.
"Girl, you're here!"
Bai Qi looked at me and smiled, his eyes still shining, but not as aggressive and cold as before. He looked more like a spirited elder.
"Grandpa Bai, it turns out you were looking for me!" I walked in and sat down opposite him.
"Call me Grandpa Qi, they all call me Bai Lao Qi!" Bai Qi replied with a smile.
I didn’t know who they were, but I still obediently called out “Seventh Grandpa.”
"Do you know why I'm looking for you?" Bai Qi asked me with a smile.
I thought about it and said directly: "Is it because I rescued Yuan Xiaodan? I thought Grandpa Qi let her go on purpose."
Bai Qi smiled and said: "You did a good job with Yuan Xiaodan. As a gentleman, the most important thing is to be kind. If you do it, Zhao Laosi is right."
I felt relieved and looked at Bai Qi, "Then Grandpa Qi came to see me?"
At this time, the curtain was lifted from the outside, and the waiter brought out crystal plates of different colors from the tray. There were exquisite pastries on the plates, as well as a crystal pot and two crystal cups. The pots contained milk tea.
After the waiter left, Bai Qi pushed the plate in front of me and said, "Little girls probably like desserts. Try them. I heard that the dim sum here is very good!"
As he spoke, he picked up the crystal pot and poured a cup of milk tea for each of them: "I am so old that I can still drink these new teas with a little girl like you. It is a blessing."
I quickly stood up and took the crystal pot from Bai Qi's hand and said, "Grandpa Qi, I am a junior, just let me do it!"
Bai Qi let me take the crystal pot and put it on the table. He stared at me with burning eyes and said to himself: "Not bad! Really good!" This chapter has been completed!
