At night, Chen Yao saw that the discussion about meteor showers in the WeChat group was becoming more and more heated, so she decided to wait until the time was almost up and go to a place with a wide view to see if she could catch a meteor shower.
It was around half past nine when she came downstairs.
When I passed the counter, I didn't see Grandma Chi there, so I talked to Aunt Fang and asked her to hold the door open.
Aunt Fang nodded and told her to be careful and remember to come back early.
Chen Yao responded and went out.
During this period, she has become more familiar with the surrounding environment and can go anywhere by herself. In addition, with the system, she basically doesn't have to worry about anything.
A few minutes later, she had walked to the lake, taken a seat at the place where she often stayed during this period, and then waited for the countdown with the people in the group.
After a while, Chen Yao heard the system suddenly warn: "Host, please pay attention, there is a strange man walking towards you."
Chen Yao frowned slightly, turned around and looked behind her, and sure enough, she saw the figure of a strange man. He was indeed walking towards her.
"Hello, are you here alone to see the night view?" the strange man asked in a gentle tone and friendly attitude.
"No, I'm waiting for someone here. My friend will be here soon." Chen Yao remained alert and lied.
"Don't worry, I don't have any ill will towards you. I'm just a little curious. Are you here to wait for the meteor shower too?" the strange man explained.
Chen Yao then looked at him again, "Who are you?"
The stranger smiled and said, "Yes, I came here to wait for the meteor shower. What a coincidence! I just joined a WeChat group chat for painting exchanges today, and I saw that they were discussing the meteor shower. Yun Town is a good viewing spot, so I chose the right time to come out. I didn't expect to run into someone waiting for the same thing as me."
Having said that, Chen Yao had no choice but to respond: "Well, it's quite a coincidence."
Immediately afterwards, her phone screen lit up, and the people in the group chat started sending messages all over the screen again.
The stranger subconsciously glanced at her suddenly lit phone screen, his eyes paused, and he said in shock: "You are also in this group chat? What a coincidence! I joined this group today."
Chen Yao: “Really?”
The strange man then showed Chen Yao his WeChat page: "Look, it's the same group."
Chen Yao took a look and said, "It really is."
The strange man took advantage of the situation and asked, "Are you also in the art industry? I'm an art teacher, what about you?"
Chen Yao casually replied: "I just draw some pictures."
Strange man: "Well, but after talking for so long, we still don't know each other. My name is Zhao Qing, what's yours?"
Chen Yao: ...
I want to end every minute and every second of the topic.
…
In the B&B, after Chi Ye finished his work, he went downstairs to get some yogurt. He didn't see his grandma there, so he asked Aunt Fang, "Is grandma not back yet?"
Aunt Fang replied, "Not yet. She went to Old Jiang's house next door and was chatting with your Grandma Jiang. I don't think she will be back soon."
Chi Ye: "Okay, I understand. I'll go up first."
Aunt Fang: "Go ahead."
After she finished speaking, she glanced at the time, then glanced outside a few times, muttering, "The little girl has been out alone for more than 20 minutes, why hasn't she come back yet? Logically, she should be back..."
Chi Ye paused and turned back, "Aunt Fang, what did you just say? Which little girl?"
Aunt Fang was stunned. "I'm talking about Chen Yao. She went out around nine o'clock and asked me to leave the door open for her. I thought she wouldn't be out for too long, but she hasn't come back in almost half an hour..."
Before Aunt Fang could finish her words, Chi Ye's figure had disappeared from her sight.
"Auntie, I'm going out for a while."
Aunt Fang:!!!
Good job.
However, Chi Ye had just walked into the yard when he suddenly remembered something, turned back, quickly picked up a bottle of something from the counter before leaving.
What was left for Aunt Fang was Chi Ye's quickly disappearing figure and an empty bottle of mosquito repellent on the counter.
…
By the lake, Chen Yao looked at Zhao Qing who was getting closer to her, frowned slightly, and automatically moved a little further away from him.
This person seemed to have no sense of boundaries, and always moved closer to her while talking.
"Hey, since we are so compatible, it shouldn't be too much to add each other on WeChat, right? What's more, we are half in the same industry, so adding each other on WeChat will make it more convenient for us to communicate and discuss on a daily basis, right?" Zhao Qing seemed very obsessed with adding her on WeChat.
But Chen Yao obviously didn't want to.
At this moment, a thought even flashed through her mind, it would be great if Chi Ye could suddenly appear.
If he were here, Zhao Qing might not be so annoying.
Or... she could just send him a WeChat message right now and find a reason to call him out... ?
No, she couldn't rely on others, she had to solve the problem herself.
"By the way, you probably... don't have a boyfriend yet, right?" Zhao Qing suddenly asked.
Chen Yao: ...
"If not, would you like to..."
"What are you doing? Why are you standing so close to talk?" Chi Ye's footsteps and voices appeared almost at the same time.
Zhao Qing was startled by the sudden sound and leaned back subconsciously.
After seeing Chi Ye approaching, he said somewhat unhappily, "What does it have to do with you whether I get close or not?"
