Chapter 74 Afternoon Tea
Chapter 74 Afternoon Tea
Afternoon tea
Suddenly an electric bell rang.
Qi Ye lay back on the seat, drowsy, picked up the mobile phone on his chest, "Baby—"
"...Did I call the wrong number?" Yan Yan's slightly surprised voice came from the phone.
Qi Ye lost all sleepiness in an instant, felt restless, and lowered the car window.He glanced at the gate of the community, and then at his mobile phone. There was no text message or missed call, and his heart seemed to sink.His voice was cold: "It's nothing to bother me, do you hang up by yourself or wait for me to hang up?"
"I just want to ask you, can the equipment be repaired now?" Yan Yan said quietly.
"I can't." Qi Ye flatly refused, he pressed his temples to calm down, "Wait for my notice."
Strictly sighed, "I'm really embarrassed by your behavior. Let's not talk about the contestants. Thousands of spectators at the scene waited from [-]:[-] in the morning until now. It took half a day. Many people flung their sleeves and went home. The rest of them were not in a good mood. They were noisy and asked for accurate words. The staff didn't know how many times to calm down, and they were all frowning. If this continues, no matter how good my stage management is, my reputation will eventually be ruined. "
"Wait a little longer, the show will start soon." After Qi Ye finished speaking, he hung up the phone.He couldn't give the time, it may be an hour later, or it may be three hours, and he is also waiting.
Qi Ye picked up the mineral water, unscrewed the bottle cap, and the cool water slid down his throat. He gradually grasped the bottle tightly, making a slight noise.
Are you stuck by something and can't walk away?
Or simply forget about today's game?
The most important thing is the phone call that has been unreachable.
Qi Ye scratched his hair, a little discouraged, unable to get in touch, and had no choice but to stay here, passively waiting for a response.
Since morning till now, he hasn't eaten anything, his stomach is empty,
Hunger comes and goes, disappears, and then emerges with more intense discomfort.
From the twilight of the sky to the sun rising three poles, from the sun rising three poles to the setting sun in the west.
As time goes by, the joy is worn away a little bit, but it is not yet the time of despair, only ten hours.Qi Ye sighed, it was the first time he found out that the time was so long, he had already conceived a series of mental compensation measures, and when they met again, he would take this opportunity and never suffer.
Having nothing to do, Qi Ye slid on his phone, flipped through the performance video taken yesterday, and the chat history with Chi Xiansheng.
Suddenly, a real-time hot search pops up on the blog.
[Jesus PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds "National Service No. [-]" player and newcomer anchor San also suspected of joining star]
Qi Ye was overjoyed the first time he saw this long sign. The rumors on the Internet are not credible, they are all made up.
Chi Xiansheng was interested in star at the beginning, but after that dinner, he only had to call him captain, and anyone could tell that he was from Qi Ye.Even if there were still clubs that were unwilling to give up, and someone came up to ask, he blocked it.
Not to mention, they held hands, hugged, kissed, slept in the same room, and even told bedtime stories. They wished they could stick together. Chi Xiansheng was on his side.
As long as the competition is over, Qi Ye will present the trophy with his own hands and a sky-high contract, promising him a bright future.
The news sent by the entertainment blogger was nothing but nonsense, Qi Ye glanced at it and didn't believe a word, that's why Chi Xiansheng wouldn't betray him.
Returning to the chat interface, Qi Ye complained a few words, then he clicked on the homepage of Chi Xiansheng's blog, and saw the top sentence, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Chi Xiansheng's number of fans, blog comments and reposts more than doubled before.It was all in Qi Ye's expectation. After using the offline competition to clear up the suspicion of cheating, Chi Xiansheng himself has a level that is not inferior to professional players, and it will be a matter of time before he becomes famous.
Qi Ye changed into a trumpet, curled up the corners of his lips, and clicked on a message posted by Chi Xiansheng, to see how everyone praised his little lazy pig, and gave him a wave of likes.
And the moment the comments were successfully loaded, the light in Qi Ye's eyes suddenly went out, as if a basin of cold water was about to be poured.
[Congratulations to the male god for joining star! ! !I knew you could do it, let’s celebrate together~~~]
[Hahahahahahahahaha, let you hide it again, isn't it the old bottom with Bai Black, not to mention, I want to go to the Star official blog to leave a message and add chicken legs to the big white dinner! 】
【Huh╭(╯^╰)╮I'm angry!Such a great good thing, but you still want to hide it from us, it's my fault that I worried about it for so long!I want to cancel you for 1 minute, let you have a long memory!If you want to keep it a secret in the future, you must hide the little secret in your heart, and don't be caught by us again hehehe]
[By the way, I'm at the competition site now, and I haven't seen the male god all day, not even on the bench.I just secretly asked the staff, saying that I didn’t show up, will I still be lucky enough to meet the male god today? QAQ]
[The result of normal reasoning is impossible.San also has become a professional e-sports player and joined star.He doesn't need to be in the top five of the competition to be able to enter jfy's special benefits, and he has already got rid of the suspicion of cheating. There is no need to participate in the competition. Abandoning the competition is the best choice, so leave the opportunity to more people]
Qi Ye has been waiting lazily, he felt that because of Chi Xiansheng, he could wait until the end of time.I also know that Chi Xiansheng will definitely come back after seeing his message or phone call.
But now, Qi Ye is no longer sure.
At this moment, he was extremely calm, returned to the chat interface, jumped with his fingertips, quickly typed a line, and pressed send.Afterwards, Qi Ye turned off the phone screen and threw the phone on the passenger seat, not wanting to take another look.
After knowing the half-truths and half-false news on the Internet, he thought about what happened today, and for the first time faced Chi Xiansheng squarely.
"does it worth?"
He looked at the macaron balls on the passenger seat, the new clothes on his body, the new car that drove as slowly as his grandma's house, and the faint fragrance between his fingers, not the smell of tar.
After a long while of silence, Qi Ye turned his gaze to the mobile phone on the passenger seat, it was still quiet,
like broken.
I don't know how many times I opened the chat interface today, Qi Ye looked at the screen, all the messages were sent by himself, the content may be long or short, the tone may be petting or teasing, none of them get a response, not even one.
He seems to be walking in the dark, covering his figure at night, so he won't be noticed, don't care.
Qi Ye clenched his hands into fists, touched each other, and collided fiercely, venting his anger.When his emotions stabilized, he lowered his palms, his knuckles were scratched, blood oozing, red and swollen.
Dialing the phone again, from the busy signal to the off state, Qi Ye dialed over and over again, every word hit his heart, and it hurt.
No matter what others said, he wanted an answer, as long as Chi Xiansheng said it himself, no explanation was fine.
Qi Ye smoked a whole pack of cigarettes unknowingly, and made calls, but none of them were picked up.
Everything that happened during this period seemed like a joke.
Qi Ye found out Hao Duizhang's phone number, and looked at it quietly for a while.During this period, the phone was silent and motionless.
Putting his last thought to rest, he dialed it, and after two seconds connected, he raised the corner of his lips mockingly, "I want to ask you something, did Chi Xiansheng go to Star?"
Hao Duizhang hesitated for a moment, and answered affirmatively: "Is it because he didn't participate in the competition today? We did negotiate yesterday, and we took away a copy of the contract. If there is no problem with the contract, we will sign it."
The phone slipped from his palm and fell to the ground.
Qi Ye lowered his head and didn't move for a long time, his face was lifeless.Slowly, he pressed his forehead against the cold car window, lowered his eyelids, and blinked a few times in succession, his eyes were cloudy, bloodshot in his eyes, and the veins on his forehead were bulging, a little ferocious.
After a while, Qi Ye bent down, picked up the phone, and raised his lips with a stiff expression. The arc became wider and wider. He burst out laughing, as if he had exhausted all his strength. He laughed out loud, looking overjoyed. It's so silly right now.
When the lights came on, the ground was lead-colored, the sky was blue, and there were many pedestrians on both sides of the street, Qi Ye opened a box of new cigarettes, held a cigarette in one hand, and called Yan Yan back.
He took a few puffs, brushed off the crumbling ash, his throat was itchy, and he coughed lightly, suddenly it seemed like a series of explosions, and he couldn't stop.He clutched his chest, arched his back slightly, and coughed violently.
"How many times have I told you to stop smoking and drinking, but you just don't listen." My cousin quickly patted him on the back, "I can't stand it now? You deserve it."
"I'm fine." Qi Ye pressed his fist to his lips, holding his breath, he gritted his teeth, suppressing the dull pain in his chest.
After confirming again and again, the cousin finally stretched her brows, and turned to Chi Xiansheng, "I blamed my carelessness for letting the puppy run out. During this time, thank you for taking care of it. If you don't mind, I invite you to have a cup of afternoon tea , It’s better to hit the sun than choose the day, there is a tea restaurant outside the mall.”
"You're welcome, it's easy to do. On the contrary, after I picked it up, I didn't immediately go to find the original owner. I kept it for a while, which made you worry."
As soon as Chi Xiansheng finished speaking, his roommate's stomach started to growl. He waved his hands and explained, "I only ate four vegetarian buns for three days and two nights. I've managed to endure it until now..."
"Exactly, I'm hungry too, let's go together." The woman picked up the blinking mop, stretched out her finger and poked Qi Ye, "You didn't eat a few bites at noon, you must be hungry now, right?"
Qi Ye gave a nonchalant hum, and walked out.
"Oh, don't pay attention to him, he just has that temper." The woman said, "I'm Qi Ye's cousin, older than you, just call me cousin."
Chi Xiansheng tightened his hands and responded in a low voice.With no hope for this unexpected encounter,
I also don't want to break up on bad terms.
The tea restaurant is close, and six people will arrive together in a few minutes.Six cups of hot tea, a piece of toast, and a piece of pasta, the waiters quickly served them all.
"Would you like another two-scoop ice cream with vanilla and taro?" My cousin suddenly remembered,
He raised his eyes and asked Chi Xiansheng, "His family has these two delicious flavors."
Chi Xiansheng shook his head and smiled apologetically, "I can't eat too cold food."
"That's right, I came here specially to prevent him from stealing food." The captain looked away from the phone, and said earnestly, "You just have a cold, and you have to avoid cold and fried oil for a few days, or you will fall ill again, then But it will be troublesome."
"It turns out that Xiaochi's health is so bad. Could it be because of the heavy rain two days ago?" My cousin sighed, "You have to take good care of yourself."
"Since I was young, my body has been weaker than people of the same age." Chi Xiansheng said, and responded with a smile.
Qi Ye suddenly turned his head, staring intently and deeply. Chi Xiansheng had a natural expression on his face.
The roommate was busy finishing the pasta, the captain was messing around on the phone, Huo Tian listened to the music and opened a magazine, Qi Ye propped up his chin with one hand, turned his head, and looked out the window.
No one spoke to him, Chi Xiansheng chatted with his cousin, mostly talking about interesting things that happened when they were in England, and what they saw and heard together.
Tea is over halfway, and this unexpected encounter is about to end.Chi Xiansheng was chatting happily with his cousin, he nodded slightly, his eyes were clear and bright, he was smiling, dimples appeared on his cheeks, he looked sweet.
Qi Ye felt itchy in his heart, as if being scratched by a kitten's paw.
"Ah! Really? I know that bookstore, but I haven't found it after searching for a long time. It turned out to be in the back street."
Chi Xiansheng nodded, "There used to be road signs, but they were removed on the Queen's birthday, so it's hard to find after that."
Qi Ye frowned and pondered, it seemed like it was a year ago, it was a good starting point, he cleared his throat, "I—"
"I've seen a bookstore with a similar style and a more comprehensive bibliography." Star's new coach raised his head from the magazine and interjected.
"Is the store also decorated with a black curtain and a small light in front of each book?" My cousin asked incredulously.Chi Xiansheng was also interested and looked up.
Qi Ye closed his half-open mouth, turned his head and looked out of the window, with a depressed expression on his face, he raised his foot and kicked the buttocks of the mop under the dining table, feeling like the child was kidnapped.
"Do you know if that store has the first edition of "Eudemonia"?" Chi Xiansheng raised his voice slightly, under the light of the sun, his eyes were shining brightly, with little stars twinkling and twinkling, alluring.
I know!
Qi Ye turned his head instantly, there is no need to go to England, a local bookstore sells it, and he also knows the exact location, so he can lead the way!
"I have two sets in the bookcase. I bought too much at the time, so I just gave you one set." Star's new coach's gaze stayed on the magazine, and his voice was not too loud.
Chi Xiansheng was so happy that he was about to jump up, his face was tense, he restrained his emotions, and the corners of his mouth kept turning up.
However, he still lowered his head, trying to hide it, not wanting to be seen, only showing a small twist of hair, the hair is fluffy, hanging softly by the ear, the tail of the hair is slightly curved, shaking gently.
But Qi Ye knew that Chi Xiansheng didn't say a word, but his eyes were talking happily.
Qi Ye also knew that Chi Xiansheng would not agree.He is restrained, measured, and has a good sense of distance, and he will not exceed the etiquette.
"is it okay?"
The next second, Chi Xiansheng raised his head, expressionless, indifferent, and questioning in his tone.It's like if you can, you can accept it!
Qi Ye's eyes flashed with fighting intent, he lowered his voice, "This kind—"
"Of course you can do this kind of thing." Star's new coach suddenly said, overshadowing Qi Ye's voice, he took off his earphones, and smiled softly, "You are my team member, which is far more important than a few books, you have to remember this .”
Qi Ye was interrupted several times, and Qi Ye couldn't sit still.
Chi Xiansheng was a little hesitant. A team is a team, life is life, and the two are separated. What's more, the friendship between the two is not so good yet.
He was about to refuse, when suddenly something rubbed against his calf under the dining table.
The author has something to say:-
small theater
Qi Zuijiu Ye: "Your hair is easy to rub. My heart softens when I touch it."
The gentleman looked indifferent, unbearable.
Qi Suxing Ye: "Snacks are not allowed before meals, what did you say last time?"
The husband stepped back instantly, covered his mouth with his hands, and said inarticulately, "I hate snacks! I'm eating fruit..."
Qi Yeqile: "Put your hands down, let me see. If it wasn't for the fruit, you wouldn't even think about eating another snack this month."
The gentleman was silent, and suddenly took a step forward.He hugged Qi Ye's arm and put his palm on his head, "Can you rub it?"
