Chapter 88 Party
Winter vacation is always busier than summer vacation.
Because it accompanies the Chinese New Year.
Qiao Yang stood out even more. His grandparents lived in Xiaocheng, a long way from Yicheng, to the north and south. Qiao Yang and his parents were planning to fly there in advance to pay their New Year's greetings.
During this time, the high school class group organized another reunion, and almost everyone was in attendance. However, without Qiao Yang, the gathering seemed less lively than before, and even the class monitor, Zhou Yu, lamented the chilly atmosphere.
...That's strange.
Qiao Yang was just fuel for the flames, but the fire was still burning. Zhou Yu was one of them. After entering college, some students who were considered introverts in high school began to let loose.
A dozen like-minded people moved from the CBD restaurant to the KTV, and then sang tunelessly with the microphone in front of the big private room.
The class invited all the old teachers to the reunion, though a few were busy and didn't come. Wang Hong came, but only for dinner.
He was still a little upset about Lin Qingxu's application to South America, but there was nothing he could do now that things had come to this point, and time could not be reversed.
I asked about Lin Qingxu's recent life, and I felt relieved to hear about her recent exams and awards. Every profession has its top talent, right? Everyone has their own aspirations.
He was actually quite curious about Lin Qingxu and Kan Zhao's current relationship. As an elder, he'd watched them grow up, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't curious. When he asked Fang Yun, she said she didn't get involved in the younger generation's affairs and didn't know anything about them.
Wang Hongxin thought there was something wrong with her.
But the last time they ran into Qiao Yang in the cafeteria, Wang Hong asked him a few questions, and the silly boy's eyes widened: "How is that possible? Stop imagining it. Kan Zhao and Lin Qingxu are just friends. They grew up together, so they have a good relationship."
As he spoke, he frowned and looked at Wang Hong: "Old classmate, why do you still like to match people up like my mother? These two are just like siblings, siblings with different surnames."
Wang Hong: “…”
The main person was right next to him during the meal. After Wang Hong asked her about her studies, he didn't feel comfortable asking about anything else. Girls are shy after all.
Anyway, the other real owner is also around.
Wang Hong asked Kan Zhao if he had ever had a girlfriend in college, and answered the question in a roundabout way.
As long as Kan Zhao nodded, he could then go on to say who the girl was.
Unexpectedly, Kan Zhao had a cold face and didn't say anything.
Wang Hong was a little surprised.
Then he asked, "Does Lin Qingxu have a boyfriend now?"
Kan Zhao still didn't say anything, but his face became even more sour.
Wang Hong: “?!!”
After eating for an hour or two, Wang Hong looked at the students he had taught, one, two, three or four of whom were now very promising, and felt a little relieved.
After dinner, Zhou Yu invited him to a karaoke bar to help digest the food. Wang Hong, already anticipating where they were going, waved his hand and declined, deciding not to join in the KTV fun. His ears couldn't handle it.
Facts proved that his choice was right. After two years, these microphone masters still hadn't improved much, and the sound was so unbearable that it was piercing his ears. Fortunately, Lin Qingxu had brought headphones in advance to reduce the noise.
Ruan Yanyan also found the noise annoying, so she ordered some earplugs from takeout. When she returned, she saw Kan Zhao and Lin Qingxu sitting on either side of the sofa. One had his legs crossed, looking down at his phone, while Zhou Yu was talking next to him. The other was listening to music with headphones on, also looking down at his phone.
One is on the far left, the other is on the far right, and they are quite far apart.
Ruan Yanyan: It doesn’t have to be so obvious.
She walked over and sat next to Lin Qingxu, "Haven't you reconciled yet?"
Lin Qingxu shook his head and said nothing.
Ruan Yanyan sighed.
In fact, she also has some responsibility for this matter. The rose is too obvious and ostentatious. Otherwise, the video would not have gone so viral.
Sometimes she would browse the gossip forum of Lin Qingxu's school, and she would also see ambiguous messages between the two protagonists in the video at that time. It can only be said that the rumors are endless and increasingly outrageous.
Who knows? Suddenly the male lead changed.
"Are you two planning to continue like this? Never talk to each other again?"
Hearing the words "never see each other again until we die", Lin Qingxu's heart skipped a beat and his fingers curled slightly.
She recalled the worst quarrel she had with Kan Zhao when they were little; they hadn't spoken for more than three days. On the fourth morning, he was waiting downstairs, holding her favorite red bean paste buns, his hair damp with the morning dew.
At that time he said: "Lin Xiaoxiao, can we never reconcile? Because we will never really quarrel."
Lin Qingxu lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes hid the emotions in her eyes.
"No." She said in a low voice, not knowing whether she was answering Ruan Yanyan or convincing herself.
After a long period of silence, their emotional intensity will slowly subside and return to the normal level of friendship.
In this way there will be no quarrels and no separations.
"Of course not. There are so many cases. Especially some men who are so petty. When they get rejected, they just block the woman and never see her again."
"No." He said again in a low voice.
Ruan Yanyan turned sideways and was about to refute, but in the blink of an eye she saw Lin Qingxu looking at her with a pair of watery eyes, like a whimpering puppy.
Ruan Yanyan's heart skipped a beat.
...What a foul.
She closed her mouth and didn't say anything more.
The noise in the box was loud, and Kan Zhao, who was far away, did not hear their conversation.
After staring at the screen on his phone for countless seconds, he locked it.
The darkened screen reflected his current appearance.
Feeling upset, Kan Zhao stood up and walked out.
"Where are you going?" Zhou Yu raised his head and asked subconsciously.
"restroom."
The door of the box opened and closed silently.
*
The party didn't end until midnight.
Zhou Yu's home is close to Ruan Yanyan's, so he sent her there.
Kan Zhao and Lin Qingxu went back together.
However, the atmosphere between the two was cold, and no one said they wanted to reconcile.

Qiao Yang only came back half a month before the New Year.
He had gained several pounds in Xiaocheng these days, and his grandparents kept talking about him as a good grandson. Qiao Yang only ate two bowls of rice at a meal, and they thought he ate too little, so they kept feeding him.
If it were a few years ago, Qiao Yang would definitely have refused, but having just returned from abroad, how could he possibly refuse such delicious food? What a shameful waste!
However, most of the food in Xiaocheng was salty, which he was not used to. During those days, Qiao Yang missed Yicheng's cheese very much.
But only Lin Qingxu has the VIP card of that restaurant.
On the night he returned to Yicheng, Qiao Yang frantically posted messages on the screen in the small group of four.
Call me handsome: [@LQX take me to Cheef tomorrow night. I've been suffering abroad for six months and I really miss their food.]
Call me handsome: [Let's have a get-together for four. How long has it been since we last had a small gathering?]
Call me handsome: [@HZ@Yanyanbuchiyan you two must be there, if anyone doesn't come I'll be mad!]
After five minutes, I found that there was no movement in the group and no one replied.
Qiao Yang then @ed the other three one by one.
In the end, Ruan Yanyan couldn't stand him anymore: "I don't mind, you can ask them."
Posted a screenshot of the game.
Yanyan doesn't eat salt: [Busy.]
Qiao Yang clicked on it and saw, "How dare you post this? I'm embarrassed for you. Dislike jpg."
Ruan Yanyan sent him a middle finger emoticon and ignored him.
Seeing that Lin Qingxu and Kan Zhao still ignored him, Qiao Yang @ed them again.
Call me handsome: [Where are you two? jpg.]
Lin Qingxu had just returned from the living room. She went to pour some water and as soon as she entered the door, she heard the sound of a message on her cell phone.
She looked at the messages that kept popping up on the phone screen, her fingertips pausing for a moment on the keyboard.
LQX: [Okay. I'll reserve a private room in advance.]
The group was silent for a minute.
Qiao Yang, unable to wait for Kan Zhao to express his opinion, took the initiative. He kept spamming @Kan Zhao's name in the group chat. There were so many messages that Ruan Yanyan accidentally clicked on his message while playing a game. When she exited, her character collapsed.
Qiao Yang was scolded for this.
But he was not discouraged and posted in the group countless times.
Finally, Kan Zhao’s avatar popped up.
HZ, : [hmm]
HZ: [Stop going crazy]
