Old Street Tattoo Coffee

On a large ginkgo tree at the corner of Old Street, its branches touch a building. On the second floor, there's a tattoo shop called "Gui Yi," run by Qiao Zhuoyi, who has a "porcupi...

Chapter 41 Chapter 41 Neighbor? Brother? Haha.

What’s wrong with these sunglasses? I can’t see things clearly when I wear them, and I feel a little dizzy.

Qiao Zhuo pulled down the sun visor and looked in the mirror. Oh, a big-name brand. No wonder she and he had a conflicting aura.

He calmed his pounding heart, tucked his arms in and huddled toward the car window.

After a while, the car stopped by the roadside.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Zhuo leaned his head against the glass and turned half a circle.

"Wait a moment." Tan Du made a phone call. A moment later, someone knocked on the car window. "Boss Tan, take it!"

Qiao Zhuo pushed down his sunglasses. It was someone from the breakfast shop next door. He didn't know when they contacted each other, but they looked quite familiar with each other.

He really has the style of a smiling tiger, being friendly with everyone and acting more like a local tyrant than a local like me.

"Have some breakfast first." Tan Du handed him the breakfast.

Qiao Zhuo spread out his hands.

Tan Du held the handle open with his palms, his slender fingers lightly wrapped around his palm, slipped the bag through his fingers, and said with a smile, "It's hot."

"You're not a child." Qiao Zhuo withdrew his hand and pinched his left hand with his right hand. "Have you eaten?"

"Eat..." As soon as he said it, he received a glare. Boss Tan scratched the tip of his nose and carefully changed his words, "No."

"Open your mouth." Qiao Zhuo picked up the dumplings and stuffed them into his mouth, one after another. He controlled the amount and stopped before Tan Du could say "full" and turned to feed himself.

After eating and drinking, Qiao Zhuo lowered his chair, closed his eyes and fell asleep. He didn't know how long he slept. When he woke up, he felt that the temperature had dropped a lot. He asked lazily, "Going to the mountains?"

Tan Du nodded and chuckled.

"What are you laughing at?" Qiao Zhuo glanced over and stretched.

"Boss Qiao, you only remembered to ask now. Aren't you afraid that I'll sell you out?"

The shade of the trees was almost like a shadow. Qiao Zhuo took off his sunglasses and lowered the car window to take a look. "In Guanshan, it's still uncertain who will sell whom."

"Does Boss Qiao come here often?" Tan Du asked.

"I've been here twice," Qiao Zhuo glanced at him, "so I know it better than you do."

The first thing a child from City C did after finishing the college entrance examination was to climb Guanshan Mountain. This place is a great place to watch the sunrise. He climbed for more than five hours on his first trip, but it rained the next day and he didn't get to see anything.

The second time was the same. I encountered some accidents and went down again just after coming up.

"Tomorrow will be a nice day," Tan Du said, "It can make up for the regrets of Mr. Qiao in his youth."

Qiao Zhuoyi narrowed his eyes comfortably. "This road is well built. We used to have to climb from the other side. One of my classmates couldn't climb up, so I used a rope to pull him up for the second half of the way."

"Boss Qiao has quite a bit of stamina," Tan Du glanced at him, "no wonder he was able to carry people down the mountain."

"Old Quan is such a gossip." Qiao Zhuo muttered.

"I talked about it when we were drinking at Brother Fan's place. He said he twisted his ankle late at night and his phone was dead. No one answered his call, but luckily there was still a silly boy like him."

"He's the fool!" Qiao Zhuo scolded with a smile, "Climbing this height isn't enough to satisfy me."

"That being said, it's a bit regrettable," Tan Du said with a smile, "How about I park the car now and let Boss Qiao climb up?"

Qiao Zhuoyi pressed his knuckles and said, "I'll tie you up with a rope. I won't regret it if you run behind the car."

"Hmm," Tan Du shuddered and said slowly, "Help—"

"Come on, come on," Qiao Zhuo rolled the car window all the way down, "Scream at the top of your lungs and see if anyone can save you."

As the altitude increased, his ears felt like they were covered by a layer of frosted glass, and the sounds he heard were not very clear. After he finished speaking, he stuck his head out and roared.

The loud sound echoed in the mountains, and the next second, someone in front responded with "Hey——"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

"Are you feeling better?" Tan Du asked with a smile.

Indeed, Guan Chengmu's appearance brought back some bad memories.

Qiao Zhuo felt uneasy when he was just confused. He slowly exhaled and responded.

"Are you cold?" Tan Du asked.

"Is the weather really that cold?" Qiao Zhuo looked at him strangely.

"I'm talking about this." Tan Du touched his chin.

“…Fuck!” Qiao Zhuo was stunned for a moment, then stood up and punched him.

The huge windmill stands between heaven and earth, like nature's clock, rotating along a fixed trajectory day after day.

There were many people scattered on the top of the mountain, some playing cards, some barbecuing, and some couples snuggling up to enjoy the view.

Qiao Zhuoyi shifted his gaze and looked at the off-road vehicle that was slowly moving into the parking space not far away. There was a couple kissing nearby. He lowered his head, rolled over a stone with his toes, and kicked it out.

The stone rolled onto the meadow. Qiao Zhuo took a casual glance at it, then suddenly looked up and squinted his eyes to look closely at the person barbecuing there.

Xiaolu? ? ?

He subconsciously retreated and went straight behind a tree.

The next second I felt like I was sick, but I hadn't done anything wrong.

He walked out with his back straight, and saw Zhou Jue appear next to Xiao Lu. He turned around and hid back.

What does that mean? When did Guanshan change his name to TD?

"Brother Zhuo!"

A shout came from behind him. He pinched the tree trunk and almost jumped up. He turned around tremblingly and opened his mouth: "Xiao Luo?"

"Brother Zhuo! You guys are so slow!" Xiao Luo, holding a basket of vegetables, jumped in front of him with a smile and pointed in the direction of Xiao Lu and the others, "Our stall is over there!"

Qiao Zhuo frowned slightly, things seemed to be different from what he thought.

"Boss Tan!" Xiao Luo called behind him, "Boss Su, have you guys connected?"

"What are you talking about? Do we have some shameful deal?" There was another familiar sound behind him, and it was nonchalant.

As Qiao Zhuo turned around, Tan Du and a man in a polo shirt walked over.

Tan Du smiled and said, "Formally introduce you, Qiao Zhuoyi, TD's neighbor and the boss of Guiyi. Su Qi, my brother."

Neighbor?

brother?

Oh.
