23 Chapter 23
Remember to me and read the articles of me and study in my building!
The Chinese New Year is very lively, but if you want to say it is fun, there seems to be nothing particularly fun. ˋˊAt least this is true for Xia Zichen. From the first day of the lunar month to the fifth day of the lunar month, Can Mo Wuhen is always with him, chatting, playing games... As long as he hangs on QQ, he may see Can Mo Wuhen. Sometimes, even if two people don’t speak and see his avatar lit up, Xia Zichen will not feel bored.
On the evening of the fifth day of the lunar month, Can Mo Wuhen told Xia Zichen that he was going to go back to China and would not go online in the next few days, so he left him a message if he had anything to do. Xia Zichen was a little surprised that he came back so early. Can Mo Wuhen explained that his family still had to go to work, which was no longer as good as the winter vacation.
I think so, the holiday time always passes very quickly, and Xia Yuze will start working in two days.
Canmo Wuhen is not online, although Xia Zichen has always felt empty, it seems that it doesn’t seem too obvious. Jian Lang and Baicaozhe have not come back yet, but Tianfeng Age’s people will call him together as long as Chen Xi is online. After a long time, even Xia Zichen himself feels that he is more like a member of Tianfeng Age.
It was the eighth day of the lunar month in a blink of an eye, and the four people gathered in the afternoon, so there was no need to get up early.
After a simple meal, Xia Zichen put on his clothes and rushed to the place he had made an appointment. Shen Yicheng paid for the party for the four people, and he decided on the place. Sometimes Xia Zichen couldn't find the place and had to take a taxi.
This time, the place where Shen Yicheng decided was Linyao Guild Hall. Everyone in the city knew that this place was definitely a symbol of rich people, which was in line with Shen Yicheng's usual style and the identity of the second generation of rich people. ˋˊ
When Xia Zichen arrived, the three of them had just arrived for a while.
When An Jing saw him, he waved, "Xiao Chenchen, here."
Xia Zichen smiled slightly and greeted the three of them.
"Don't go out to play during the Chinese New Year?" Shen Yicheng looked at Xia Zichen.
"No, where have you been playing?" Xia Zichen looked at Shen Yicheng with a rosy face. It was obvious that he had a good holiday this time.
"I went to Hong Kong, but there was nothing to play with." Shen Yicheng smiled, then scooped out the membership card from his wallet and handed it to the lady at the front desk, "It's a big deal to open a VIP private room."
There are only two VIP private rooms here: medium and large rooms, and there are no small rooms.
"Sorry, the big VIP room has been booked, only the middle room, is it OK?" the front desk lady asked politely with a gentle smile.
Shen Yicheng frowned slightly and turned around to look at the three people.
"It's okay, we only have four people, so we can't use that big place." An Jing smiled. He also knew that Shen Yicheng liked to be pompous, but sometimes it was really unnecessary.
"I didn't expect that there are so many people on the eighth day of the lunar month. ˋˊ When I'm tired, I can rest on the sofa and tatami." Shen Yicheng sat opposite Tang Hui, pointed to the seat next to him, and said to Xia Zichen: "Come here and sit."
Xia Zichen sat down. Anyway, the sofa was so big, it was the same wherever he sat. He was not so pretentious that he didn't want to sit next to Shen Yicheng.
"Let's have something to eat first, I'll have a few bites in the morning." Shen Yicheng flipped through the menu and rang the service bell.
"Eat first, I haven't eaten yet." An Jing touched his stomach, scooped another menu and looked through it, took the hot water poured by Xia Zichen to warm his stomach first.
After ordering the dishes, the four of them moved to the dining table. Tang Hui turned on the TV and adjusted a station casually. At this time, the program was still based on the Spring Festival, and all stations were similar.
The dishes were served very quickly, and the four of them talked about interesting things during the Chinese New Year without saying a word, and had a full meal.
After dinner, the waiter cleaned the table as fast as possible, and the four people moved their positions to the mahjong table. When it comes to playing mahjong, four people can do it, but they have never sat in the same table like today. Playing mahjong during the Chinese New Year is also a matter of wealth. The four people did not really use money, but used the chip coins provided by the guild to serve.
After two laps, An Jing won the most, and Xia Zichen was considered a guaranteed principal.
"I said, no one will arrange a blind date for you like this great opportunity for the New Year?" An Jing looked at the three people with a gaze. ˋˊAs for his father, it is even more impossible to find a man to give him a blind date. Love between homosexuals is hard to come by.
As we were chatting, Xia Zichen's cell phone rang and he saw the phone number. It was his father.
"Asking the phone." Xia Zichen deducted the card and turned around and went out.
Compared to the sound of TV and mahjong inside, the corridor seems much quieter.
"Hey? Dad." When Xia Zichen walked to the elevator at the corner, he answered the phone.
"Well, will you go home after dinner tonight?" asked Xia Yuze on the other side of the phone.
"Not necessarily. I just had a meal and I probably can't be hungry at night." I looked at the time and it was just past three in the afternoon.
"Well, I have to work overtime tonight and I won't get home at about eight o'clock. If you want to be hungry, eat something by yourself."
"I know, I will take care of myself." Xia Zichen smiled and said, "You also remember to have supper, don't forget to be busy."
"Okay. I'm working, you have fun."
"Yes." Xia Zichen hung up the phone, thinking about whether to have a midnight snack for his father when he went back tonight.
While thinking about it, the elevator door opposite was opened. Xia Zichen subconsciously looked up and unexpectedly saw Gu Xu in the elevator.
The person under this floor had already walked out of the elevator. Gu Xu didn't move, obviously he was going upstairs. But when he saw Xia Zichen, Gu Xu smiled slightly and walked out of the elevator that was about to close.
"What a coincidence." Xia Zichen spoke on his own initiative. It was indeed a coincidence. If he didn't come here and just stood at the door and listened to the phone, he might not be able to meet him.
"Eat here?" Gu Xu asked in a low voice.
"Well, come and have fun with your friends." Xia Zichen said. Gu Xu's voice sounded very nice, which made him feel a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it.
“The afternoon tea here is good, you can try it.”
Speaking of afternoon tea, Xia Zichen suddenly remembered that he hadn't thanked him yet, "By the way, thank you, and the cake from last time."
"How do you like it?"
Xia Zichen nodded slightly. He liked both the cake and there was nothing to deny.
"That's good." Gu Xu's voice was filled with a smile, "Look at it slowly, don't rush to pay it back."
"Yes." Xia Zichen looked up at Gu Xu, unable to say why. Whether this person's attitude or the feeling that he gave him made Xia Zichen feel very familiar - a forgotten familiarity.
"What's wrong?" Gu Xu did not avoid Xia Zichen's eyes, but just looked at him deeply, with his eyes as deep as ink.
"Did we know each other before?" Xia Zichen said his question without shyness, "You make me feel very familiar with you, but I really don't remember knowing you."
Gu Xu smiled, and the arrogance in his eyes also dyed a layer of tenderness. He looked at Xia Zichen for a while before saying, "You really don't know me."
Xia Zichen was relieved and avoided the embarrassment of really forgetting others.
"But we can start to get to know each other." As he said that, Gu Xu stretched out his right hand, "I am Gu Xu."
"Xia Zichen." Xia Zichen reached out to hold Gu Xu's hand, and Gu Xu's hand tightened slightly until the temperature on the two hands was blurred with each other.
Xia Zichen was not disgusted with his actions.
After looking at the watch on his wrist, Gu Xu said, "I'm going to go up first. Don't play too late, it's inconvenient to take a taxi here. Also, don't drink. You're too young."
"I'm already an adult." Xia Zichen subconsciously retorted. After he said it, he felt that he seemed a little too casual. If someone else was saying this, he wouldn't respond at all.
"I know." Gu Xu smiled and pushed away the bangs on his forehead, "Go back, it's a little cold here."
Although the air conditioning in the hall is very open, the corridor is not warmer than the room.
"Well, goodbye." Xia Zichen responded. Although Gu Xu's movement just now was a bit ambiguous, he had no calculations or malicious intentions. He was just a simple action, so he didn't hide.
Gu Xu walked into the elevator, Xia Zichen turned around and walked back to the private room. The elevator door slowly closed, separating Gu Xu's gentle eyes and smile.
