"Yeah, I'm watching the fireworks with Wu Hao at Houhai." As soon as Xu Wennuan replied to her, she heard the sound of fireworks exploding on the other end of the phone. After the cheers died down, Xu Wennuan repeated what she had said earlier, which had been muffled by the noise. "Xiao 'ai, when are you coming back to Beijing?"
"After the 15th of January."
"It's so late, and I'm the only one at home. It's so boring. Come back soon …" Xu Wennuan whined. She was much quieter than before. She had probably returned to the car after watching the fireworks.
"Okay, I'll see which day the tickets are available. I'll go over." After a pause, Qin Zhi 'ai continued, "But I have to stay after the 6th of January."
"Okay. Love you. Muacks," Xu Wennuan replied with a smile.
Qin Zhi 'ai was about to reply with a "ha ha" when she heard Wu Hao's voice over the phone. "Brother Sheng, take my wife home first."
Qin Zhi 'ai froze on the spot.
As she heard the faint sound of a car engine, she clearly heard Gu Yusheng's voice. "Okay."
After a while, he said, "Address."
"Xiao 'ai, wait a minute." Xu Wennuan replied to Qin Zhi 'ai and began to tell Gu Yusheng the address. After that, she said, "Hello," into the phone.
Qin Zhi 'ai came back to her senses and replied to Xu Wennuan absent-mindedly. Before Xu Wennuan could respond, she said, "Nuannuan, my mom is calling me. I have to hang up now. Talk to you later."
After that, she hung up the phone without waiting for Xu Wennuan's response. Holding the phone, she stood in the corridor in a daze.
After so many days, she had thought that she had calmed down.
She didn't expect that the phone call just now, when she accidentally heard his voice, would turn her world upside down.
…
Qin Zhi 'ai returned to Beijing on the 12th of January. To surprise Xu Wennuan, she had told her over the phone that she would be arriving at the South Railway Station at 3: 00 p.m.
Since the Spring Festival had just passed, there were very few cars and people in the Imperial City.
It took her less than 20 minutes to get from the South Railway Station to the apartment she shared with Xu Wennuan.
Xu Wennuan wasn't home, so the living room was a little messy, and there were a lot of dirty clothes in the bathroom.
Qin Zhi 'ai shook her head helplessly. She hadn't expected that after so many years, Xu Wennuan would still be the same.
She put down her luggage, changed into her home clothes, and began to tidy up the room.
At five o 'clock, it was getting dark outside. Xu Wennuan hadn't returned yet. Qin Zhi' ai glanced at the fridge and found nothing but a few eggs and a few bottles of milk. She grabbed her purse and went to the nearby supermarket.
Qin Zhi 'ai bought enough food for more than a week before pushing the cart to the checkout counter.
By the time he paid the bill and came out, the sky was already completely dark.
She bought a lot of things, so the bag was very heavy. Although the supermarket was not far from her home, it was still a little difficult for her to carry it.
When she was almost downstairs, she spotted Xu Wennuan and Wu Hao standing at the entrance of the building.
Qin Zhi 'ai subconsciously wanted to call out "Nuan Nuan," but before she could say anything, a car horn sounded and Lu Bancheng's voice was heard. "Haozi, are you done? Are you two done?"
