Lin Xuan?
Qin Ruoying hadn't seen Lin Xuan for many years, so her impression of Lin Xuan was still in college.
However, Chen Xi's memory of Lin Xuan was not long ago.
The cruise ship, the dock, the palm trees.
On that sunny afternoon, Lin Xuan stood under the shade of the tree and watched the father and daughter get into the car and leave.
She stood there for a long time.
In fact, the Lin Xuan of the past was quite similar to the girl just now.
A girl from a small county came to Zhonghai, an international first-tier city to study and work. At that time, Lin Xuan had a kind of maturity that was incompatible with her peers.
Of course, that so-called maturity, in retrospect, was also a kind of childishness.
When all the impurities were washed away, the girl just now might become like Lin Xuan now.
Chen Xi thought about something thoughtfully.
Qin Ruoying glanced at Chen Xi and suddenly asked with a smile, "What? Have you met Lin Xuan? "
Hearing this, Chen Xi immediately nodded and replied, "Yes, when I first came back, I asked her about you … When Fang Lei got married, she asked Niannian to be her flower girl."
"Fang Lei is married? Thinking about it carefully, I haven't seen them in a long time. Do you think we should go back to Zhonghai to meet them? "
"When do you want to go?"
Qin Ruoying thought for a moment, looked down at the little girl in her arms, and said, "Let's talk about it next spring. The weather is cold, I don't want to go."
"Okay."
Chen Xi nodded, but then he suddenly thought of something and quickly took out his phone.
"Oh, I almost forgot. You're back is such a big thing, we should tell Auntie Zhang the good news first …"
While speaking, Chen Xi opened WeChat.
After sending a video call request to Auntie Zhang, Chen Xi handed the phone to Qin Ruoying.
Qin Ruoying paused for a moment and quickly took the phone.
The video call request rang a few times, then it went through with a "beep".
Auntie Zhang seemed to be busy with something. The screen showed the ceiling of her house. After she accepted the video call, she probably put the phone on the table.
"Yo, stinky brat, you finally remembered to give this old woman a call?"
Auntie Zhang's granddaughter was crying. She was so busy comforting her granddaughter that she didn't have time to look at the phone.
Qin Ruoying looked at the screen. She didn't see Auntie Zhang, so she hesitated for a moment before saying gently, "Auntie, it's me, Yingying …"
Auntie was stunned.
Then, he grabbed the phone on the table and shouted at the camera with a surprised face, "Oh my god! Yingying! When did you come back? "
Seeing that familiar face, Qin Ruoying was also slightly excited. She quickly replied, "I just came back a few days ago. I'm discussing with Chen Xi when to go to Chengdu to visit you."
"Thank God, you're finally back … Where are Chen Xi and Niannian? Come, come, come, let me see your family … "
Hearing Auntie Zhang's request, Qin Ruoying raised the phone high and then asked Chen Xi and the little girl to come over.
In the video, Qin Ruoying leaned close to Chen Xi, and Chen Xi held the little girl in his arms.
Both of them looked at her with a smile.
The little girl poked her head out and saw Auntie Zhang in the video. She immediately shouted excitedly, "Grandma! Grandma! "
As she shouted, she waved her little hand and motioned for Auntie Zhang to look at her.
"Aiyo, your family is finally reunited …"
Looking at the family of three in the video, Auntie Zhang's words were also quite emotional.
After so many twists and turns, they were finally reunited.
Qin Ruoying and Auntie Zhang talked about old times, and Chen Xi held the little girl and listened with a smile.
The two of them chatted for more than half an hour.
When Auntie Zhang had to prepare lunch for her granddaughter, Qin Ruoying reluctantly said goodbye to her.
She had already made an appointment with Auntie Zhang to go to Chengdu during the New Year.
…
Because of the teahouse, Chen Xi casually ordered a few dishes at the Chinese restaurant next door for lunch.
One for them, and the other for the two cultivation maniacs at home.
The business in the afternoon was indeed better. Before three o 'clock, there were already four or five tables of customers.
Qin Ruoying did the math.
The average cost per table was eighty yuan. At least fifteen tables of customers were needed to earn back the daily rent.
This did not include the artificial water and electricity.
Of course, they did not want to make money. Qin Ruoying did the math just for fun.
The owner of the teahouse was like an immortal couple, the lively and lovely daughter, and the black cat that lay on the bar all day long.
In just three days, many people knew that the owner of the Qingyi Teahouse had changed.
It was not because Chen Xi was really so eye-catching, but because of the sign hanging at the door.
"This teahouse does not provide chess and card entertainment."
This teahouse had become a pure tea house.
The so-called teahouse did not provide chess and card entertainment, but only provided tea and a relatively quiet and relaxing environment.
Many people came to the teahouse to play cards, so when Chen Xi hung the sign outside that no chess and card entertainment was provided, the business of the teahouse went downhill.
However, there were gains and losses in everything.
The chess and card teahouse became a pure tea house. There were fewer individual customers, but more frequent customers.
For example, Qiao Yuan.
Since the day Qiao Yuan drank the black tea here, she would come to the teahouse at eleven o 'clock every morning. Then she would order a cup of black tea and quietly sit on the sofa to read the book she brought.
When she did not receive a call, Qiao Yuan would sit in the teahouse all day and would not leave until six o 'clock in the evening.
Every day was like this, so in just a few days, she was very familiar with Niannian.
Chen Xi found out from chatting with her that Qiao Yuan was a junior at Beijing Normal University. The reason she came here every day was that she recently found a part-time job in Houhai.
Her part-time job seemed a bit strange. After three days, she only went to work on the first day. For the next two days, she sat in the teahouse all day reading and only left in the afternoon.
Although Qiao Yuan did not say what her part-time job was, Chen Xi thought it might be related to the bar.
This afternoon, including Qiao Yuan, there were only three tables of customers in the teahouse.
Suddenly.
There was a sudden sound of tires braking on the street outside, followed by a burst of shouting.
A customer was alarmed, so he curiously went out of the teahouse to take a look.
When he went out, he saw a large group of people standing in front of a bar not far away.
It was not the opening hours of the bar, and those people did not look like they were here to drink. Some of them seemed to be here to make trouble.
This was Houhai, Sijiu City, under the Emperor's feet.
It was strange that someone dared to make trouble here in broad daylight.
The customer looked around and then asked his friends to come out and take a look.
Qin Ruoying saw this and followed him out.
Qiao Yuan sat by the window, so she wanted to see the situation outside through the window.
But at this moment, her phone suddenly rang, giving her a fright.
Qiao Yuan answered the phone.
After listening to a few words, her face changed greatly.
She quickly hung up the phone, stood up from her seat, and looked around the teahouse at a loss.
She ran directly to the bar and then said to Chen Xi with a pleading face, "Boss, can you let me hide here for a while?"
