Xiao Yuan didn't seem to go to the supermarket very much, and Liu Jiangqing came back here for the first time. Although he also lived in S City, there was still a long distance between Yuanjiangge and Donghuayuan Community, and this area was a blind spot in life.
The figure slowly pushed the shopping cart around the shelves like a dungeon for land reclamation, getting familiar with the map little by little, looking for a place selling fresh vegetables. When he turned to the snack area on the first floor, Xiao Yuan was attracted by the exquisite snack gift box and reached out to take it.
Two boxes of snack gift boxes were placed in the shopping cart.
"What are you doing with this?" Liu Jiangqing asked with a frown. After the two large hardcover gift boxes were put in, they took up a large area in the shopping cart, leaving only some extra space in the corners, which was not enough to hold food.
"One box for you and one for Ino as a New Year's gift." Xiao Yuan replied.
"I won't eat it, put it back." Liu Jiangqing said with disgust.
"Don't you always eat the snacks that Qian Qian brings?" Xiao Yuan said with a smile.
"She forced it on me. Just eating it doesn't mean I like it," Liu Jiangqing said.
"Oh, then leave it to Sissi, it won't be your share." Xiao Yuan nodded seriously.
Liu Jiangqing endured it and did not object to the snacks. They walked forward for a while, and when they arrived at the home furnishings sales area, the whole area was deserted, and they were filled with all kinds of unpopular products during the New Year.
The shelves are stacked on top of each other, making you feel like you are lost.
"Are we going in the wrong direction?" Liu Jiangqing looked up in confusion, looking for a sign, but all she saw were signs advertising New Year's promotions, and she was not sure which way to go.
"That's right. Go through here and there is an elevator to the second floor at the end." Xiao Yuan said.
Liu Jiangqing continued to push the cart forward doubtfully. Rows of pots and pans, carpets, towels, and daily groceries passed by his sight, but he still couldn't see where the elevator Xiao Yuan mentioned was.
. This section of the road was so embarrassingly quiet that you couldn’t even hear the music on the supermarket radio, as if you had entered another space that did not belong to the supermarket. As he walked, he suddenly heard Xiao Yuan’s clear and resonant voice coming from next to him.
sound.
"Aren't you going home during the New Year?"
"There's no one at home, it doesn't matter where you live." Liu Jiangqing suddenly became alert, stopped and looked at him sideways, "Why, do you think I'm wasting your water and electricity by living in a club?"
Xiao Yuan laughed: "Do I feel sorry for the water and electricity people? Besides, with you here, Ino and I can still eat fresh food, and it's too late to welcome you. I ask this purely out of concern for friends, don't think too much about it.
.”
Seeing that he asked about herself first, Liu Jiangqing also had doubts in her heart, so she asked back: "What about you, the big boss won't go home during the Chinese New Year?"
"Same as you, home is where I am." Xiao Yuan replied.
"How is it possible that Boss Xiao has no relatives?" Liu Jiangqing asked.
"I do have relatives, but they are not in China. I am the only one at home in China." Xiao Yuan replied calmly.
Liu Jiangqing suddenly realized this and said teasingly: "I thought you should be a son-in-law, but it turns out you are a foreign Chinese."
"I am not a young master, nor a foreign Chinese, but a citizen of the country." Xiao Yuan took the shopping cart from Liu Jiangqing's hand and pushed it forward slowly. As he walked, he said, "I left home when I was 15 years old.
, I only took 500 yuan in cash with me when I left home, ate and lived in a club with my friends, and made money through competitions. Since then, I have been wandering alone until now."
"Running away from home at the age of fifteen?"
Liu Jiangqing looked at him in disbelief, and then felt that what he just said was a bit frivolous. Fifteen years old is the age when young people are ignorant. If he originally came from a superior family and had the qualifications to immigrate abroad, he chose to leave the superior environment for a difficult one.
To survive, there must be a serious reason for doing this. He said that he lived in a club after leaving home. The income of professional players in that era was very worrying. The money they received could only guarantee food and drink, which was much more difficult than today's professional players. And
How did Xiao Yuan manage not to see his relatives for more than ten years?
"Oh, I am young and frivolous, but I have no regrets." Xiao Yuan replied calmly, suddenly pushed the shopping cart around a corner, looked up, "The elevator is over there."
The products on the second floor are all fresh ingredients and finished foods. Once you get to the second floor of the supermarket, the surrounding environment becomes noisy. Groups of people push shopping carts to buy things to eat during the Chinese New Year. Every stall and shelf is crowded.
It was full of people and as hot as a war. Liu Jiangqing and Xiao Yuan stopped chatting and started buying ingredients for the next few days.
The two of them quickly filled the shopping cart. In addition to food, Xiao Yuan also took two bottles of liquor. Liu Jiangqing didn't ask who the wine was for, but she still couldn't calm down in her heart.
The entire building area of Yuanjiang Pavilion is very large. Although it is three floors, it is very wide in depth and area. When it was changed from the tea house to the Zero One Team Club, everyone felt that this large area was a bit wasteful, and many places seemed empty. Now
When there are three people living here, it looks even more empty and deserted, like an uninhabited castle.
Perhaps they all feel too lonely, so the three of them have formed an almost consistent life rhythm. After breakfast in the morning, they work out together, then go to the training room to play online games on a small account, cook together at noon, continue to play online games in the afternoon, and get together again in the evening
The kitchen continued cooking, and then started playing online games. They turned into three original homeboys, with no other arrangements in life.
It was the first time he spent the Chinese New Year with other people. Although he stayed at home and played games without even the slightest feeling of the New Year, Liu Jiangqing felt that this was the happiest New Year he had spent in several years. At the same time, he no longer had to look at the "boss"
"Looking at Xiao Yuan with an attitude, I felt that they had something in common and that they could be regarded as brothers.
Speaking separately on the other side, Lu Yunqian has been anxious ever since she left the team and got on the bus home. She doesn’t know what to say about what happened during this period of time when she gets back. After all, she hasn’t been back home since the summer vacation, and
There is also very little contact with my parents. Although I persuaded my father to agree to temporarily take a year off from school to do social practice, what if they suddenly regret it when they go back this time? Can they still ask for some understanding and support?
In addition, there is another thing that has been bothering Lu Yunqian, which is whether she should let her brother communicate with her parents.
Heng Dao Yijian has repeatedly stated that he must not tell his parents about his existence in the game, but as more and more people around him know about his existence, and Xiao Yuan Qiaowen's indifference towards Heng Dao Yijian
Treating him differently and often discussing stack moves with him while playing games, Lu Yunqian gradually felt that her brother was no different from when he was living normally, he just existed in another world.
You can talk freely with people who are not relatives but not friends, but the people closest to you have to be tight-lipped. Lu Yunqian feels sad for her brother and feels unfair for her parents. However, this matter is really not a trivial matter for her parents and cannot be taken lightly.
She made a decision. Seeing that the car was about to arrive at the station and she didn't have much time to think, she still chose to respect her brother's wishes and continue to keep this secret until the day she felt she had to tell it.
