Ji Zhaoyuan not only came to pick up Chu Jiuge to buy a ring, he calmly announced another decision: "Tomorrow I will go to Mojave for a two-week business trip."

Chu Jiuge was a little excited. He had been free for two weeks. He didn't need to study or get up early. He could do whatever he wanted, and he could even occupy the whole bed to himself.Then I will definitely play a few more games with Qi Wei and the others. If I have a chance, I would like to go to the bar of Meidi to meet him...

Ji Zhaoyuan turned his head to look at Chu Jiuge who was smirking, and continued, "You come with me."

With a sound of "噗~", the cooked duck fluttered away.Chu Jiuge asked him, "What are you doing?"

Ji Zhaoyuan drove the car without looking sideways: "The research team has a project."

"Shouldn't you academics emphasize confidentiality?" Chu Jiuge was still struggling, "It's inappropriate for me to go."

Ji Zhaoyuan thought for a while and said, "You take the book and study obediently in the hotel."

Ji Zhaoyuan parked the car in the parking lot near the pedestrian street, and handed the shopping list to Chu Jiuge: "You go to buy food, and I'll go to buy a ring. I'll see you here in 10 minutes."

Chu Jiuge tugged at him: "I'm with you."

Ji Zhaoyuan frowned slightly as he watched his hands pinching his sleeves.

"I don't have any money." Chu Jiuge looked rascal, "Why don't you give me your credit card."

Ji Zhaoyuan didn't bring any cash, so it was impossible to give him the card.In desperation, Ji Zhaoyuan had no choice but to drag Chu Jiuge into the Cartier store.

Ji Zhaoyuan snatched back his sleeve from Chu Jiuge's hand, and said to the Chinese counter lady with a cold face, "I need a men's ring."

The lady at the counter is of high quality. Seeing two big men walk in awkwardly, she still greets them with a smile and introduces them to the latest models that have just been launched.Wearing white gloves, the lady at the counter carefully took out a few simple men's rings, and explained in Chinese: "Sir, this is the best model we bought, and it follows the classic design style of our brand. The meaning of our pair of rings is It looks blissful and perfect as a wedding ring."

Chu Jiuge lay down on the counter and asked the counter lady to try it on for him.He carefully compared them, and finally hesitated on the two rings, a little undecided.He stretched out both hands in front of Ji Zhaoyuan: "Which one looks better?"

Ji Zhaoyuan directly ignored him, stepped forward and said to the counter lady, "Ask for the cheapest one."

"Hey!" Chu Jiuge pushed him, "How about the wedding ring?"

Ji Zhaoyuan pinched his wrist, raised his eyebrows and said, "Otherwise, you should pay the money."

Chu Jiuge moved his lips and was speechless.He smiled awkwardly at the counter lady: "I also don't think the price is important, the important thing is the relationship, are you right?"

"Yes." The counter lady was amused by him, she covered her mouth and laughed.She first helped Chu Jiuge measure the circumference of his fingers, and Ji Zhaoyuan took advantage of this time to swipe his card to pay the bill.

The counter lady chatted with Chu Jiuge while taking measurements: "You and your boyfriend have such a good relationship."

Chu Jiuge rolled his eyes in his heart, wondering how this girl could tell, her eyes were not very good.

Chu Jiuge smacked his lips and started talking nonsense: "He was so shameless when he was chasing me. He made a hundred calls every day, and lost his temper with me if he didn't answer any of them. I didn't promise him. On a rainy day, hit the door of our house with a pestle. It’s a bitter plan!” He seemed to be really regretful, and he turned into a person who came here to persuade the counter lady earnestly: “I’m just too kind, so I agreed to him in a muddle. He is not willing to buy a ring. You need to keep your eyes open when looking for a boyfriend in the future, don't be chased too easily..."

Before he finished speaking, he noticed that the lady at the counter was laughing even harder, and the flower branches were trembling so that the flower bones were almost scattered all over the ground.The counter lady pointed behind him, Chu Jiuge turned around little by little like in slow motion, and saw Ji Zhaoyuan's dark face.

I don't know how long Ji Zhaoyuan stood here listening, Chu Jiuge murmured in his heart.Then he pretended nothing happened, stood up and gave up his seat to Ji Zhaoyuan: "Why are you sweating, sit down and have a rest."

"Thank you," Ji Zhaoyuan said through gritted teeth, "I finally got my boyfriend."

The smile on Chu Jiuge's face didn't break at all. He took Ji Zhaoyuan's hand and put it on the counter, and said to the counter lady, "Beautiful sister, you can measure it for him too."

The counter lady gently wrapped the tape measure around Ji Zhaoyuan's ring finger. She wrote down the data and said with a smile, "Your boyfriend is really interesting."

Ji Zhaoyuan looked up at Chu Jiuge, and said with a sneer, "It took me so long to chase..."

Chu Jiuge covered his mouth with his hand, and smacked a random smile at the counter lady: "Sister, I was talking nonsense just now. I chased him! I chased him! The kind who hugged his thigh and refused to let go! Really! !"

The lady at the counter tried her best not to laugh, and handed the receipt to Ji Zhaoyuan with both hands: "I wish you two a happy wedding in advance, and we will be together forever."

Ji Zhaoyuan took the receipt and left without looking at Chu Jiuge.Chu Jiuge blew a kiss to the counter lady, and quickly followed her.The two bought the rations and spare supplies for tomorrow's road with the speed of a gust of wind, and then drove home, speechless all the way.

Chu Jiuge opened the car window, watching the passing scenery outside boredly.At first, it was still a forest of high-rise buildings, and then transformed into a lush tree-lined path, and the air that rushed towards us was mixed with the smell of green grass.

Chu Jiuge took a few deep breaths, and then let it out slowly.Suddenly, a brown figure flashed past his eyes, and there was a faint trace across it.Chu Jiuge was a little surprised, he turned around and looked at Ji Zhaoyuan: "What is that?"

Ji Zhaoyuan didn't notice, but he still slowed down the car: "Maybe it's a squirrel." Then he stopped the car, leaned over to the back seat and took a small bag of pine nuts, "Do you want to feed it?"

"It's not a squirrel!" Chu Jiuge was a little anxious. Of course he had seen a squirrel before, but the one that flashed past just now must be at least a kangaroo.

Ji Zhaoyuan didn't speak, just turned around and drove back.After driving for a distance of several hundred meters, I finally saw the elf.

It was a Virginia deer.

Virginia deer are relatively common in California. Ji Zhaoyuan was not surprised. He popularized science and said: "It belongs to the subfamily of deer deer. The bottom of their tail is white, so they are also called white-tailed deer."

This is the first time Chu Jiuge saw a deer in a non-human natural environment.He leaned against the window, looking a little fascinated.Deer is a very charming animal, with a vigorous and elegant body, innocent eyes, but a sensitive and timid character.The little deer soon found them, tilted his head and looked at them for a while, then ran away with a jump.

Chu Jiuge sighed with some regret, and looked down at the photos he had just taken on his phone.

Ji Zhaoyuan asked him: "Can I go?"

Chu Jiuge nodded, and uploaded the photo to Moments.He leaned back in his chair and looked at Ji Zhaoyuan who was driving, the bag of pine nuts was still thrown on the center console, he suddenly asked, "Do you usually feed squirrels?"

Ji Zhaoyuan stopped the car next to the side of the road, and said, "Occasionally."

I don't know what's going on today, and I'm especially sorry for it.As soon as he finished speaking, he found two little squirrels on the trash can in front of his house. Their small white bellies were chubby, and their big dark reddish-brown tails were fluffy on their backs.They held the seeds of an unknown plant in their hands, and seemed a little frightened, looking at them dully.

Chu Jiuge smiled, squeezed a handful of pine nuts, opened the door, got out of the car and walked towards the little squirrel.Ji Zhaoyuan followed behind him with a distance of one meter.

It's strange to say that the two little squirrels who were frightened just now are not afraid of Chu Jiuge.The one in front jumped over lightly, and the chubby one almost stumbled when it jumped out of the trash can.They gathered around, and each of them took all the pine nuts in Chu Jiuge's palm.

Chu Jiuge squatted on the ground, watching them nibbling away quickly, and then stuffed their cheeks bulging.

Chu Jiuge waved to Ji Zhaoyuan, wanting to ask him to come and watch this funny scene together.But Ji Zhaoyuan shook his head and said softly: "They are afraid of me."

Chu Jiuge suddenly felt that Ji Zhaoyuan seemed a little wronged, like a child acting like a baby.The first thought that popped up in his mind was actually, don't talk about squirrels, many people are afraid of you, but when the words came to his lips, the taste changed again.

He smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not afraid of you."
