There are a lot of things you can do in Jiangcheng shopping district for two hundred yuan, but if you want to have a lot of fun, you have to save some money... Qiu Yuan has no research on this aspect.
If Bai Xiaoyu wanted to have fun all afternoon, Qiu Yuan chose the most time-saving and labor-saving method and took her to watch a foreign popcorn movie.
Qiu Yuan felt much more relaxed when watching a movie with Bai Xiaoyu than with Wanxiang.
While watching a movie with Lin Wanxiang, Qiu Yuan's brain cells died as many times as he could, thinking about how to answer Lin Wanxiang's riddles.
Bai Xiaoyu is much more relaxed here. She is a good playmate when she puts aside her hostility towards Qiu Yuan. She understands all the jokes Qiu Yuan says, and she even pulls Qiu Yuan to complain about a lot of things in the movie.
Routine plot.
"Is there going to be a car chase scene later? This is the only way foreign movies can be boring."
"I knew this person was a villain. There were too many plot hints."
"This heroine has no role in the plot at all, she is just a hindrance..."
When the movie first started, Bai Xiaoyu still had a cold face and didn't want to talk to Qiu Yuan at all. But as the movie got to the middle of the movie, she had more and more things to say. In the end, Qiu Yuan chatted with her for a few words, and she couldn't help it.
I started chatting with Qiu Yuan about the plot.
In the end, the more they chatted, the more enjoyable they became, and they temporarily lost their cold face towards Qiu Yuan.
Bai Xiaoyu was very careful not to disturb the audience next to her when she was complaining about the plot, so she lowered her voice very low and subconsciously moved closer to Qiu Yuan as she spoke.
This made Qiu Yuan deeply experience Bai Xiaoyu's unruly and arrogant side, which seemed to be only for him.
She still pays great attention to various etiquette in public places. Although Bai Xiaoyu sometimes unconsciously puts her feet on the chair when sitting, she is still considerate of other people's feelings in other aspects.
After all, she is still a seventeen-year-old girl, and I don't know what kind of pressure she has endured because of her mother over the years.
After the movie, Qiu Yuan took Bai Xiaoyu to visit other entertainment venues in Guomao. However, Bai Xiaoyu's physical condition was not very optimistic. She was already holding on very hard and trying not to let Qiu Yuan notice her weakness.
.
Qiu Yuan didn't point it out, because pointing it out would only make her continue to be awkward and make the atmosphere of friendship that was finally created dissipate in an instant.
Just like that, Qiu Yuan and Bai Xiaoyu walked out of the Guomao shopping mall and onto the street outside. The sky outside had completely darkened, and it was nine o'clock in the evening.
Bai Xiaoyu showed some signs of fever and looked a little groggy.
"Where are you going to sleep at night?" Qiu Yuan asked this question inadvertently.
As a result, Bai Xiaoyu, who was still a little sleepy just now, immediately entered a fighting state when she heard these words. She looked at Qiu Yuan with a wary face. She and Qiu Yuan chatted too happily when watching a movie, so she began to rely on Qiu Yuan a little.
Then Qiu Yuan's words cleared away the little trust and dependence Bai Xiaoyu had on him.
But Qiu Yuan had to ask this question. Bai Xiaoyu's physical condition no longer allowed Qiu Yuan to take her around anymore.
Anyway, Qiu Yuan already received 320 yuan in care fees while watching the movie.
"Do you think I want to take you to the hotel?" Qiu Yuan had a smile on his face that made Bai Xiaoyu uneasy.
"You...if you dare, I will fight you to the death!" Although Bai Xiaoyu's voice was weak, it still had the feeling of a little tiger howling.
"Then what can we do? We can't sleep on the street, right?"
Qiu Yuan had previously asked Bai Xiaoyu whether she could stay at her classmate's house today, but Bai Xiaoyu chose to remain silent on this question. Her silence was equivalent to saying no.
"It's okay to sleep on the street..."
Bai Xiaoyu would rather sleep on a park bench than go to a hotel with Qiu Yuan. She turned around and wanted to leave, but after taking a few steps, her body swayed and she almost fell down.
Fortunately, Qiu Yuan quickly grabbed her hand. After Bai Xiaoyu stood firm, she struggled for a while and tried to break away from Qiu Yuan's hand. She thought she was going to struggle, but Qiu Yuan let go after making sure she stood firm.
.
This made Bai Xiaoyu stunned for a while.
"I thought of a place where a female friend of mine lives. It's in our school." When Qiu Yuan held Bai Xiaoyu's hand just now, he confirmed that she didn't have a fever, and then told him about a place he had thought of for a long time.
.
"In your school?"
Bai Xiaoyu felt a little more at ease when she heard about that place. Maybe in her mind, the school was a safe place, but whether it was safe or not could not be confirmed until she got there.
"I still need to ask first."
Qiu Yuan took out his mobile phone, opened Zhao Hanwei's WeChat and sent a message.
'Old Zhao, the child I used to tutor had some trouble with the family and is now looking for a place to live. Can you help me ask your sister if she is willing to take him in?'
The only temporary residence Qiu Yuan could think of was Sister Zhao Hanwei's attic. Qiu Yuan came to Jiangcheng from other provinces to study and had no friends here. He couldn't secretly take Bai Xiaoyu to the boys' dormitory, right?
It seems that the girls' dormitory is okay, but... no matter who the female classmate is in the class, it seems that the situation will become very, very troublesome.
Based on the above, the safest place is Sister Zhao Hanwei’s residence.
‘Teacher Bai Ya’s child?’
'Yes.' Qiu Yuan remembered that Zhao Hanwei's sister and Bai Ya should know each other. After all, Zhao Kewei was also the starring actor in "My Friend from a Distance".
‘I said hello to my sister, you can just take her there, my sister will take care of her.’ Zhao Hanwei replied.
Done!
Qiu Yuan didn't think about taking Bai Xiaoyu to the hotel tonight. It was impossible for the girl to go to the hotel unless she was tied up.
"Are you going?" Qiu Yuan showed Bai Xiaoyu the chat history between himself and Zhao Hanwei.
Bai Xiaoyu might really not be able to hold on anymore. After seeing that the other party knew her mother, she decided to accept Qiu Yuan's proposal.
Qiu Yuan directly called a taxi and took Bai Xiaoyu to the gate of Jiangcheng Art University. Qiu Yuan looked around suspiciously before getting off the car.
But when I thought about it carefully, Qiu Yuan had done nothing wrong. It was almost ten o'clock in the evening, and there were no students at the school gate, so he took Bai Xiaoyu out of the car and walked directly to Sister Zhao Hanwei's residence.
"You want to take me to the girls' dormitory?"
Bai Xiaoyu followed Qiu Yuan on the path of Jiangcheng Art University, guessing where Qiu Yuan would let her live later.
What kind of girls' dormitory? It's more exciting than the girls' dormitory.
Qiu Yuan did not answer Bai Xiaoyu. The street lights where Zhao Hanwei's sister lived were still not repaired. In addition, there were no people around, which made Bai Xiaoyu more uneasy.
Finally, when Qiu Yuan took Bai Xiaoyu to the entrance of Shentong's express station, the supermarkets and fruit shops on both sides of the express station were also closed, and there was not a single student in sight on the entire road.
Zhao Hanwei's sister Zhao Keweiyi has been waiting at the door of the courier station for a long time. She is still wearing the clothes she wore when she was a courier, so even if Bai Xiaoyu has watched "My Old Friend from a Distant Place", he probably wouldn't recognize her.
"Is she Teacher Bai Ya's daughter?" Zhao Kewei asked, looking at Bai Xiaoyu.
"Do you know my mother?" Bai Xiaoyu felt that the courier in front of her looked familiar, but she couldn't tell exactly why.
"We know each other." Zhao Kewei didn't mention much about her relationship with Bai Ya but pointed to the stairs to the attic. "Follow me. It's okay for you to stay here for one night today."
Although Bai Xiaoyu was a little suspicious, considering that the other party was also a girl, she followed Zhao Kewei up to the attic.
Zhao Kewei may have known that guests were coming, so he cleaned up the attic in advance, but the attic was always an attic, and it was originally designed to be a place to store debris.
Not to mention the small space, the roof is very low. A fluorescent lamp hanging on the roof emits a warm light. There is only enough room for a bed and a chair in the space of less than ten square meters. The whole attic is filled with a kind of atmosphere.
It feels crowded, shabby and shabby.
A young lady like Bai Xiaoyu, who is accustomed to living in a villa of more than 300 meters, will inevitably feel aggrieved when she suddenly condescends to live here.
But Bai Xiaoyu was very strong. She didn't complain about the poor living conditions here, and she didn't even show any aggrieved expression. She just asked Zhao Kewei very carefully, "Can I take a bath here?"
"Okay, this is a place for bathing." Zhao Kewei pointed out the bathroom she used to Bai Xiaoyu. She walked into it and looked around, but found that she couldn't find what she wanted.
"Where are the water heaters and showerheads?" Bai Xiaoyu asked.
"Water heater?" Zhao Kewei suddenly laughed when he heard this thing. "I'm sorry, Miss Bai family, this small place doesn't have such high-end gadgets. If you want to take a bath, boil the water with the hot water kettle first, and then put the water cup in the bucket."
wash."
Isn't this too down-to-earth? Qiu Yuan remembers that she took a bath like this in her hometown when she was a child. Children who grew up in cities like Bai Xiaoyu seemed unable to accept this way of bathing, but she still endured it.
Today I followed Qiu Yuan to play outside. Her whole body was soaked with cold sweat, and her clothes were sticky and stuck to her body, which she couldn't bear.
Qiu Yuan watched silently as she fetched water from the water heater honestly, then boiled the water and poured it all into the bucket. She was so well-behaved that she was not like the unruly and willful girl before.
But after Bai Xiaoyu locked the bathroom door alone, Qiu Yuan realized that she was not as strong as he thought.
The sobs came from behind the door bit by bit. It wasn't that she didn't want to cry, she just didn't want to cry in front of Qiu Yuan.
Her strong self-esteem allowed her to endure until now, venting out all the grievances she had accumulated in the recent period.
Bai Xiaoyu was still trying very hard to suppress her sobbing, but it was of no use. The attic was so small that even people's breathing could be clearly heard, let alone her sobbing.
Qiu Yuan could understand this kind of grievance. It was like staying in a dormitory during military training. Suddenly, he was living very comfortably at home, but he was dragged to a shabby dormitory like a military training base for training.
"What happened at her home?" Zhao Kewei asked out of curiosity.
"I'm afraid her mother wants to sell the house to make a new movie..." Qiu Yuan started and Zhao Kewei understood what he meant.
Zhao Kewei is also paying attention to Bai Ya's recent developments. If Bai Ya wants to make a new movie with all her strength in this state, Zhao Kewei thinks that she will only go bankrupt.
Bai Xiaoyu has been listening to her mother's advice over the years, saving money and not causing trouble to her mother, just because she doesn't want her only home to be sold.
"What about you? Why are you following her?" Zhao Kewei turned her attention to Qiu Yuan. She looked at Qiu Yuan with a strange look.
"What I insist on saying is to fulfill her wish." Qiu Yuan was about to go downstairs while talking, "I'll buy her dinner..."
Now is the time when Bai Xiaoyu is most helpless and when he needs the most care. Now maybe Qiu Yuan is the only chance to get closer to Bai Xiaoyu.
