601, chance encounter

It seems that every time he drinks with Bai Su, he will get drunk, and this time is no exception. The boss's wife arrived at the shop at night and helped Bai Su back home with Li Xiang as usual.

Bai Su's home was neat and not messy this time.

Bai Su stopped writing for nearly a year. During the summer vacation, he started to think about a new book and was already writing. Maybe it was because of the writing needs that he cleaned his home. After all, literary creation requires a comfortable environment to have inspiration, otherwise the eyes will be filled with messes, throwing things around, and all kinds of unspeakable smells floating at home. How can you calm down and conceive novels?

"Your Teacher Bai is very proud of you." When she left, the boss lady said to Li Xiang.

Li Xiang nodded and said nothing, he could feel this.

He could even feel that Bai Su wanted to accept him as his apprentice, but later he released "I Am a Cat", and he never expressed such thoughts again, and now he has nothing.

"Let's go, the little girl in our store is very excited to see you." The proprietress smiled and waved her goodbye, and went into the cafe to take care of the business.

Under the street lights, there is a river on one side of the street, and on the other side are shops such as barbecues. The lights are hidden under the shadow of trees, and the people are lively.

There was wind tonight, but the wind was hot. The weather in August was the hottest time of the year. Li Xiang had just walked a short distance and his body was sticky and his back was sweating.

He covered his mouth with his hands and exhaled, but there was still a smell of alcohol. It seemed that he couldn't drive by himself.

On the street, there are many people wearing yellow pony clips and riding folding bicycles constantly looking at the store on the street. These are all designated drivers.

Li Xiang put on his sunglasses and walked over.

"Sir, are you looking for a designated driver?"

"Do you want a designated driver?"

"Here, sir, where are you going?"

...

As soon as Li Xiang passed by, five or six people surrounded him. He dodged these people, waved to the young man standing in the dark, and said, "Is it a delegate driver?"

"Okay." A vague but happy voice came from the darkness.

Only then did Li Xiang notice that the other party was holding a blue plastic lunch box and eating.

Perhaps seeing Li Xiang’s hesitation, the other party quickly said vaguely: “I’ve finished eating and can leave immediately.”

After saying that, he quickly covered the lunch box, put it in his backpack, then folded the bicycle, held it in his hand, bent down and trot quickly, and followed Li Xiang silently.

Seeing this, the others dispersed, looking for new guests.

"You put the bicycle in the trunk first." Li Xiang said when he arrived beside the Volvo car.

"Okay." The young man who followed him replied concisely and carefully placed the folding bicycle in the trunk.

Only then did Li Xiang have time to look at the other person. He couldn't see anything when he looked at the back, and he didn't hear the sound was too old. When the other person closed the trunk and turned around, Li Xiang realized that he looked familiar.

Li Xiang was wearing sunglasses himself, and the other party also wore a sun hat, and his face was covered with sweat. Seeing Li Xiang looking at him, the other party quickly lifted up the hem of the T-shirt and wiped the sweat off his face.

"Don't regret?" Li Xiang asked tentatively.

As soon as his voice fell, the person opposite was stunned immediately, and finally raised his head and looked at Li Xiang. Li Xiang took off his sunglasses and stared at the other party with big eyes.

"It's you, I don't regret it."

"Li Xiang? You are Li Xiang."

Ma Buhui was full of surprise. He never expected to meet Li Xiang here, which was such a coincidence.

Li Xiang patted his shoulder and asked, "Why are you here? Do you work part-time?"

He remembered that Ma Buhui was admitted to a key university in the south. It was summer vacation now, so he should go home after the holiday and do part-time jobs. [ps: Many people may not have an impression of Ma Buhui, and the people who appeared in Chapter 2]

Neither of them expected to meet in this way, it was exactly one year since the last meeting.

They were high school classmates and only parted ways after the college entrance examination.

Once upon a time, Li Xiang, Li Dan and Ma Buhui were in an iron triangle and often went in and out together. Later, everyone had different experiences. Ma Buhui's college entrance examination went smoothly and entered the university of his dreams.

The college entrance examination is an important turning point in life. People who used to be together every day may never have any intersection from now on.

After entering university, Li Xiang and Ma Buhui had very little contact, and they could only send text messages to each other during the Chinese New Year to say hello to each other.

In fact, not only did he have Ma Buhui, but Li Xiang had less contact with all his high school classmates, including Mu Xiwen, who had always been "meeting by chance", except Li Dan.

Li Dan did better than him in this regard. This guy seems to be able to keep a smooth connection with everyone and never lose contact.

Meeting again made Li Xiang and Ma Buhui feel a little confused about where to start. It only took a year, but many things have changed, especially in such occasions.

Li Xiang has already felt this change with other classmates.

After chatting for a few words, Ma Buhui said he would take him home first. Li Xiang sat in the passenger seat.

On the way, the two talked about their experiences and their situation at school... Li Xiang found that Ma Buhui changed a lot. He used to be a talker and now he has become taciturn. I don’t know if it was because of his sudden encounter with him or it really turned out like this.

When he arrived at the community, Li Xiang invited Ma Buhui to sit at his house, but Ma Buhui refused. He still wanted to take on business.

Li Xiang stopped insisting and watched him leave.

"I'm back."

Li Xiang pushed the door and entered the house.

Shi Shibiao ran over and sent slippers to Li Xiang enthusiastically.

"Thank you, my Shishi is such a little angel." Li Xiang picked up Shishi, which caused the little sister to giggle.

"Have you had supper?"

"I've eaten it, my dad made spinach egg pancakes, which are delicious..."

Xiang Xiaoyuan heard the news and came over to ask if Li Xiang had had supper.

"I've had dinner with Teacher Bai. By the way, let's go to Disneyland together tomorrow. Will Shishi go? There's Mickey Mouse." Li Xiang said.

Shishi immediately raised her hand and wanted to go. She had wanted to see Mickey Mouse long ago.

"Where is your sister?" Li Xiang didn't see Li Dou Dou, otherwise the child would have raised his hands and shouted when he heard that he could go to the paradise.

"Dou Dou is recognizing words." Shishi said, her big eyes turned around, and she smiled and looked very happy when she saw that her brother and mother did not discover her little secret.

Xiang Xiaoyuan said: "Your aunt is teaching her to recognize words. Today I wrote the name wrong again. I wrote it ten times and eight times, and copied the words."

Oh, what a poor Director Dou. There is probably only one Director in the world who writes a name wrong.

Xiang Xiaoyuan asked again: "Why do you think about going to Disney?"

Li Xiang took Shishi to the sofa in the living room and sat down. The latest episode of "Summer of the Band" was being broadcast on TV. Before he returned home, Xiang Xiaoyuan was watching it.

"Disney wants to invite me to be their Asian spokesperson. Xiao Wang, I am going to go for an inspection. How about it? Are you accompanying me?"
