After explaining things to Gu Rongqi, Cheng Qicai put her phone away, while Wu Jieyu next to her kept nagging.
One minute he'd ask her, "Will Gu Rongqi come?", the next he'd ask, "What will you do if he comes?"...
Cheng Qicai chatted with her casually, but gradually she became more and more sleepy, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and finally her consciousness faded into darkness.
The next day, Cheng Qicai opened her eyes wide and quickly reached for her phone under her pillow.
It's 11:30.
Cheng Qicai anxiously nudged Wu Jieyu next to her, "Wu Jieyu, get up quickly, it's 11:30."
"What?" Wu Jieyu opened her eyes abruptly when she heard the time.
The two had arranged to meet yesterday at a Taoist temple in City B, which is located on a mountain and more than an hour away from Wu Jieyu's university!
However, the two had talked for too long last night, and Wu Jieyu had a headache. She yawned and suggested, "How about we call it a day and go tomorrow? It's too late to get up and pack now."
Cheng Qicai checked the time and agreed that this made sense.
After washing up, there won't be much time left to have lunch.
After changing the time, the two lay in bed for another half hour until their stomachs started growling with hunger before they finally got up.
Since they didn't have much time in the afternoon, the two decided to visit a popular commercial street in City B, which is also a popular tourist attraction in City B. The architectural style adopts classic foreign architecture.
It allows you to experience the feeling of being abroad without leaving the country.
Cheng Qicai found it quite novel at first. There were so many internet celebrities here. Cheng Qicai and Wu Jieyu even sat outside and admired them carefully. They even searched for each other's videos to see if there was any difference between them in real life and in the videos.
After looking around for a while, she and Wu Jieyu went to a craft shop to look at different items. The unique feature here is that each building from another country has a craft shop inside that country.
She even saw the same refrigerator magnets that Gu Rongqi had given her from G country.
Just as she was enjoying her shopping, she received a call from Gu Rongqi.
"Qicai, are you and your friends playing outside of school?" Gu Rongqi asked directly.
"Yes!" Cheng Qicai nodded, then realized what Gu Rongqi meant and asked in surprise, "You really came to City B?"
Her voice was a little loud for a moment, and noticing that the customers in the store were all looking at her, she immediately went outside.
Gu Rongqi said casually, "Yes, it's right at the entrance of B City University."
"Oh, what are you going to do now? Wu Jieyu and I are outside. I didn't know you were coming. How did you get here? Wu Jieyu was just joking..."
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Cheng Qicai became incoherent for a moment.
Wu Jieyu was right.
"It's okay, you and your friend have fun. I'll go check on my friend first," Gu Rongqi comforted him.
Cheng Qicai suddenly remembered that he had a friend who taught at B University. Knowing that he wasn't homeless, Cheng Qicai breathed a sigh of relief.
“Okay, I’ll call you when I get back,” Cheng Qicai told him.
Gu Rongqi chuckled, "Okay."
Cheng Qicai hung up the phone and saw Wu Jieyu looking at her with a smug grin. "Ha! I told you he'd come. Shall we go back now?"
“No, he’ll go find his friend first. We can take our time looking around,” Cheng Qicai explained.
"Are you in a hurry?" Wu Jieyu asked. "If I had known someone was chasing after me all this way, I would have run back as fast as I could, and the moment I saw him, I would have thrown myself into his arms, hugged him tightly, and called him 'Darling.'"
As Wu Jieyu spoke, he put his arm around her and demonstrated the scenario.
Cheng Qicai shoved her, "You're so cheesy!"
"So you're really boring, having absolutely no romantic sense." Wu Jieyu pouted.
Cheng Qicai nodded perfunctorily, "Yes! Yes! Yes!! You have the most romantic soul."
The two strolled along the street, and Wu Jieyu pointed to a small shop with a long queue ahead and said, "This is a popular chestnut cake shop. Let's go buy some. I've had it before, and it's really delicious."
Cheng Qicai nodded.
But there were so many people on the weekend; it took them more than half an hour to get to their turn.
Cheng Qicai bought two portions, and Wu Jieyu bought one portion.
Wu Jieyu looked at the oil paper bag in her hand and teased, "Oh, you said you didn't care? You even bought things for her."
Cheng Qicai said helplessly, "Alright, shut your mouth. You've been chattering all day."
"I was just worried about you. It's rare to see you thinking about dating again." Wu Jieyu shrugged. "Alright, we've bought everything. Shall we head back?"
"Aren't you going to play a little longer?" Cheng Qicai asked, looking at Tianwen, which was still dark.
"Isn't someone waiting for you? There's no need for any delays. Besides, you've checked the time so many times along the way."
Wu Jieyu pushed her towards the subway entrance, saying, "We can have dinner together on our way back. How could I miss the opportunity to have dinner with a handsome guy?"
"Okay." Seeing that Wu Jieyu had said so, she nodded.
She knew that Wu Jieyu said that for her sake.
After the two exited the subway station, Cheng Qicai called Gu Rongqi and told him his current location.
He and Wu Jieyu stood at the door for a while, and then they saw Gu Rongqi walking towards them.
Gu Rongqi walked over, and Cheng Qicai introduced Wu Jieyu to him, "This is Wu Jieyu, my friend."
Then, pointing to Gu Rongqi, he introduced him to her: "This is Gu Rongqi..."
"I know, we met when we had hot pot last time." Wu Jieyu looked at Gu Rongqi. "Hello!"
"Hello!" Gu Rong nodded.
Wu Jieyu asked excitedly, "By the way, Gu Rongqi, have you eaten?"
"not yet."
Wu Jieyu: "That's perfect! We came back specifically to have dinner with you, and we were worried you might have eaten. Luckily, you didn't."
"Thank you, you can play a little longer before coming back."
"Isn't this because someone is getting anxious?" Wu Jieyu muttered.
Gu Rongqi heard Wu Jieyu's words and looked at Cheng Qicai gently.
Cheng Qicai touched her nose, blushing slightly.
