Xie Linglu

Ji Xinxi was hesitating whether to say hello to the other party. In fact, the two sides didn't know each other that well, and they hadn't seen each other for a few months. There was a somewhat awkward sense of distance.

Zhang Chenghu over there with a toolbox in his hand, stopped and bent over to take a breath. It looked as if he had just finished exercising. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and straightened up again to face Ji Xinxi. He glanced, his eyes were surprised and flustered for a moment, and then he straightened his clothes and came over with a toolbox.

"Miss Ji, long time no see? Are you going back here with Xun Xiaodao to celebrate the New Year?" Zhang Chenghu greeted first, and Ji Xinxi followed the words.

"Yes, we are here for the New Year this year, and Xiaochun is helping to look after the store." Ji Xinxi pointed to the canteen behind him.

Zhang Chenghu glanced at Xun Youling who was busy, and then withdrew his gaze and said, "Very good, did everything go well after you left?"

Ji Xinxi's brows twitched slightly. I don't know if it was her illusion. She always felt that Zhang Chenghu's words were a little unnatural, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it. She nodded and replied, "It's all good, how about you? Your father's How is the injury, the old man's recovery is slow, is there any problem?"

Zhang Chenghu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed dryly, and said, "Okay, okay, please remember him so much. My dad has worked hard all his life, and he didn't have any great achievements, but his body and bones are not bad. Good morning."

When he spoke, he reached out to touch the back of his head, but he still had the toolbox in his hand, and there was a bang in the action.

Ji Xinxi followed his movements and noticed the toolbox in his hand. There was a logo printed on the box. She looked familiar and asked casually, "You just came back from work? Today is New Year's Eve. ,Why do not you rest?"

Zhang Chenghu looked at the toolbox in his hand and replied, "This family has nothing to do. If I can work for two more days, I will pay more for my wife's book. A new company came to the dock some time ago, and the boss is now offering high prices. Take advantage of this time to make more money.”

Ji Xinxi nodded, did not dwell on the topic, and said goodbye to Zhang Chenghu after chatting for a few more words. Looking at the back of the other party's departure, she thought for a while, and took out the phone to retrieve the logo on the other party's toolbox.

After a while, a company information was revealed to Ji Xinxi. The company was newly established last year. It is headquartered in City C and involves many industries, but she didn't see any other problems. She shook her head and felt that she was thinking too much. , put the phone back in his pocket, turned around and went to the store to help Xun Youling.

After being busy for a while, Ji Xinxi propped up the counter and looked at the distant mountain view, and said, "When I'm old, it seems like it would be good to open a small shop with you."

Xun Youling looked at her and smiled: "Why, you like me so much, and now you start to imagine old age. It seems that you are really dead to me~"

Ji Xinxi pinched her cheek angrily. Seeing that there was no one around, she quickly leaned in to kiss her and whispered, "Yes, I like you so much."

Xun Youling's heart swayed when she heard it, she turned her head and was about to kiss her back, Ji Xinxi saw someone coming to the door with his sharp eyes, so he ducked sideways and smiled and said, "Boss Xun, the business is coming, you can't make money with such half-heartedness. "

Xun Youling pursed her lips and asked in a slightly impatient tone what the visitor wanted to buy. Ji Xinxi chuckled a few times, and the landline phone beside her suddenly rang, which startled her.

Xun Youling was busy, she laughed when she saw Ji Xin's past actions, and said, "Grandma Zhong is getting older and likes to make her voice louder. I'm busy, what's the matter?"

Ji Xinxi stretched out his hand to answer the phone, when a hurried voice suddenly came from inside.

"Grandma Zhong, I'm Xun Yang, have my master and the others come back, go and call them, I'm in a hurry!"

As soon as he heard Xun Yang's voice and tone, the smile on Ji Xinxi's face disappeared, and he quickly replied: "Xun Yang, I am Ji Xinxi, and now Xiaochun and I are together, Daoist Master Xun and the others. in the view."

There was almost a quick reply: "Miss Ji, Xiaochun is next to you? I..."

Ji Xinxi suddenly hesitated when he heard him, thinking it was inconvenient for him to say something, so he asked, "Don't worry, I'll let Xiaochun answer the phone now."

"Wait, wait, don't give it to her, I don't know how to tell her, listen, something happened to her fifth senior brother, and now I can't figure it out here, let the master come over, be sure to let my master Come here, I've already sent the location to Xiaochun, so be sure to hurry."

There was the noise of the electric current from the other end of the phone, and there were some chaotic voices. The phone was hung up with a "beep", Ji Xinxi called back again, and the result was that the message could not be connected.

She put down the microphone and looked at Xun Youling over there. She knew the reason why Xun Yang hesitated just now. Xiaochun was brought up by her fifth senior brother. Even though she had never met him, she also knew the weight of this person in Xun Youling's heart. Now she The fifth senior brother had an accident, and she didn't know how to speak.

But now is not the time to be hesitant and hypocritical. As soon as Xun Youling finished greeting the guests at hand, Ji Xinxi went over and closed the window of the canteen, took the stall outside, pulled Xun Youling to close the door, and walked back.

Xun Youling was confused by her series of actions, and asked in confusion, "Xixi, what's wrong? Who was calling just now? Why didn't you speak."

Ji Xinxi looked back at her, held Xun Youling's hand tightly, and continued to walk forward, saying, "I'll tell you when I see the Taoist priest and the others, don't ask now."

Xun Youling was frightened by her serious appearance, and had an ominous premonition in her heart, so she headed back and followed Ji Xinxi's pace.

When the two returned to Guanli, Xun Ge and the others were hosting the New Year's Eve dinner in the yard. Xun Nagan was lying on the rocking chair and basking in the sun. Seeing the two returning, he asked, "Didn't you go down the mountain to wait for the fifth and the others? come back first?"

Ji Xinxi pulled Xun Youling to stand in the courtyard, turned around and glanced at each other, then took a deep breath and looked at Xun Nagan and said, "Master Xun, we were in the canteen just now, and Xun Yang made a phone call. Come here, he said that the fifth senior brother had an accident, and he can't handle it there now, and he said that you must come over in person."

As soon as these words came out, all the people in the courtyard stopped what they were doing and looked at Ji Xinxi.

After Ji Xinxi finished speaking, she felt that the temperature in her palm suddenly became cold, and when she looked back and saw Xun Youling's pale face and absent pupils, she was immediately distressed, tightly holding Xun Youling's hand, and comfortingly said: "Xiaochun, you Don't worry, I don't know what's going on."

Xun Youling regained her senses and let out a trembling sigh. She unconsciously grabbed Ji Xinxi's hand, with such force that Ji Xinxi frowned slightly, but she didn't say a word, just let Xun Youling hold it.

Xun Zuo came over and patted Xun Youling on the shoulder, the two of them turned their eyes to Xun Nagan together.

Over there, Xun Nagan frowned. After a while, he suddenly stood up and shouted, "Pack up, this year will be over."

Everyone's heart sank suddenly, Ji Xinxi opened his mouth to look at Xun Youling and said, "Xun Yang said, he sent you the location, you can take a look."

When Xun Youling heard this, she let go of Ji Xinxi's hand and went back to her room to find her mobile phone. She didn't bring her mobile phone when she went down the mountain today, thinking that it was nothing to do, and Ji Xinxi also brought her, so she could find someone if she was in a hurry. At this moment, I was scolding myself in my heart.

She went back to her room and looked at her phone, and found that there was an unread message. She shivered and opened it. It was a location in X City. She didn't say anything else, only two words: "Come on!"

Xun Youling only felt her heart twitch tightly. She stood there for a while, not knowing what to do. A pair of hands hugged her from behind and hugged her in her arms. The silent warmth gradually passed through her back, and she raised her hand. Grabbing the hand around his waist, his confused thoughts calmed down.

Xun Ge's voice came from the courtyard: "Xiaochun, pack your things faster, pack up and go down the mountain. The car has already been called, we will leave now."

Fortunately, there was still someone by her side, otherwise Xun Youling really felt that if she was alone, she would definitely be in a mess, she patted Ji Xinxi's hand and started to pack up quickly.

Ji Xinxi looked at Xun Youling nervously, seeing that although her complexion was still pale, she was much better than before, and her eyes returned to her focused look, but her tightly pursed lips revealed her turbulent mood at the moment.

The words were the palest at this time. Ji Xin didn't say anything in the past, but just silently helped to clean up together. The two of them cleaned up quickly, and then went out the door and went straight down the mountain.

There was a van parked at the foot of the mountain. Time was running out and it was the Spring Festival again. There was no time to book tickets for them and change to other modes of transportation. Driving was the fastest way.

When Ji Xinxi and the others arrived, there was only Xun Ge standing beside the car, and before the others got down, Xun Ge glanced at Xun Youling, who was mute, and said, "Don't be embarrassed, what's going on? , No one knows, we have all met with strong winds and waves, don't scare yourself here."

Xun Youling was shocked when she heard the words, Xun Ge's words woke her up, she almost lost her life several times, why can't she help herself at this moment, she immediately rubbed her nose and got into the car first.

Ji Xinxi was worried about her, and guarded Xun Youling every step of the way. As soon as the other party got into the car, she also got into the car and sat down beside him.

Not long after, Xun Nagan and Xun Zuo Xunyou also got into the car. Before leaving, Grandma Zhong knocked on the car window, handed in a few thermal insulation buckets, and said, "Is it still going out for the New Year's Eve? I wanted to tell you guys. Send some dumplings, and now you just happen to take them and eat them on the road."

Several people thanked and said goodbye to Grandma Zhong, Xun Ge started the car, Xun Nagan said in the co-pilot: "The person is not dead, but the situation is not good, don't rest this time, take turns."

As soon as she heard that the person was still alive, Xun Youling's tense body suddenly relaxed a little. The car drove silently on the road. She lowered her eyebrows and saw Ji Xinxi's hand resting on her lap. There was a conspicuous blue purple on her fair skin. She grabbed each other's hand and asked, "I did it?"

Ji Xinxi shrank his hands and said with a smile, "It's alright, I didn't find out if you didn't tell me."

Xun Youling's eyes turned red, and she said guiltily, "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention just now."

Ji Xinxi scratched her nose and shook her head with a smile, Xun Youling couldn't bear to hug Ji Xinxi's arm and bury her head in silence, and gently rubbed her fingers on Ji Xinxi's hand.

I don't know how long it took. Xun Youling, who was sleeping in the middle, was woken up by Ji Xinxi. The other party looked at her and coaxed softly, "Xiaochun get up and eat some dumplings to cushion her stomach."

Xun Youling rubbed her eyes and asked, "What time is it now?"

Ji Xinxi: "It's been driving for more than six hours, and it's almost twelve o'clock now. There's a traffic jam ahead. Let's grab some food while you're at it."

Xun Youling opened her mouth to bite down the dumplings that Ji Xinxi handed to her mouth. The insulation box worked very well. At this time, there was still residual warmth. As she was eating, she heard the sound of firecrackers in the distance. The new year has come.
