just like it

As soon as Jiang Miao picked it up, He Yu yelled anxiously on the other end of the phone, "Why didn't you find me after you came here today? If I hadn't met Lao Jiang, I wouldn't have known about it!"

"I didn't stay long, so I didn't dare to surprise you." Jiang Miao said with a smile.

He Yu was dissatisfied: "Then you can also say hello, what are you busy with?"

"Today we discussed cooperation with Hu Chengjie."

"That's good, doesn't he always want to lure you into the gang?"

Jiang Miao said: "Well, but I'm not a partner, and I can't explain the specifics in a few words now. Let's talk about it when we meet when we have time."

"...That's fine," He Yu became happy again after hearing this, "Since you can take over the job, then I have to find some business for you. Hehe, with my connections, you don't want to be idle."

"Okay, I'll treat you to a big meal then."

Just after hanging up the phone with He Yu, another call came in, but it was from Wu Xia.

Jiang Miao was a little nervous. The last time he received a call from Wu Xia, something big happened to him. This is a bit of a sequelae.

"Wu Xia, are you okay? I'm going back."

Wu Xia snorted and said, "It's nothing if you want to come back. I wanted to ask you if you would come back for dinner. If you don't come back, I'll order a takeaway."

Wu Xia's voice sounded the same as usual, and Jiang Miao was also relieved.

"Then you wait for me to buy some food and cook it yourself?"

"Farewell, young master, I just got into trouble, can you be nice to me?" Wu Xia wailed and hurriedly stopped Jiang Miao.

"Okay, okay, wait for me to come back, let's go out and have a good meal."

Jiang Miao hung up the phone with a smile, couldn't help exhaling, and was still able to joke with him, it seemed that Wu Xia should have recovered a lot.

After passing the security check, Jiang Miao's cell phone rang again. He was surprised that so many people were looking for it today. Seeing the name displayed on the cell phone, his heart beat twice.

He stopped, stood against the wall, and answered the phone: "Senior."

Luo Yuchuan seemed to be taken aback, before he said, "Where are you?"

"I was just going to take the subway back."

"Oh," Luo Yuchuan was silent for a few seconds, "tell me where you are, and I'll pick you up and have dinner together."

Jiang Miao turned to face the advertising light box on the wall, fearing that people passing by would laugh at him like a fool, and said, "I just had a dinner appointment with Wu Xia, and I've been out today, and I don't know he's at home alone. How about it."

Luo Yuchuan said without hesitation, "Then pick him up and eat together."

"really?"

"Well, I'll pick you up, and then pick him up."

Jiang Miao nodded and wanted to agree, but on second thought, Luo Yuchuan came to pick him up and had to drive around a long way, so he said, "Don't pick me up, I'll get into the subway right away, or we'll meet you at the gate of the community Bar."

Luo Yuchuan didn't insist, the two agreed and hung up the phone.

Holding the phone, Jiang Miao followed the crowd to the subway with a beating heart.

It was not the first time that Luo Yuchuan called him, but except for the inexplicable "reporting schedule" call on the day of the classmate reunion, he was contacted almost every time when something happened.

Today's phone call was the first time that Luo Yuchuan took the initiative to have "non-business" contact with him.

Rounding up, that counts as a date.

Thinking of this, Jiang Miao blushed a little again, but couldn't hide her happiness, and laughed out loud just thinking about it.

He could only bite his lip and force himself to focus on the advertisement on the subway car.

After the three met, they found a small restaurant with a good environment near the community.

Wu Xia knew from Jiang Miao that Luo Yuchuan would be there, but when he really saw Luo Yuchuan, he still felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, he admits that he has also been in the rivers and lakes, and his face is much thicker than Jiang Miao. After sitting down, he smiled and said, "Don't argue with me today, please."

Luo Yuchuan smiled slightly, and poured a cup of boiling water to rinse the chopsticks without saying anything.

Jiang Miao said, "Let me invite you. Today I just negotiated a cooperation with the studio. I invite me to invite you."

Wu Xia glanced at him, and said bluntly: "You don't want to redeem that camera anymore? We just talked about cooperation, and you want to take off on flat ground before you see the money."

Luo Yuchuan looked at Jiang Miao in surprise.

Jiang Miao blushed slightly, glanced at Luo Yuchuan and whispered, "It will be redeemed soon."

Wu Xia also seemed to realize that she had slipped the tongue, coughed a few times, and raised her hand to say hello: "Order."

The meal was very quiet.

Luo Yuchuan didn't talk much at first, and he was thinking about Jiang Miao's redemption of the camera. Jiang Miao was startled by Wu Xia's words just now, and now he was thinking repeatedly about how to explain to Luo Yuchuan, but Wu Xia It is because I am afraid that I will make too many mistakes.

The three of them had their own concerns, and the meal was almost finished in silence.

The business in the small restaurant is good, the proprietress has been busy greeting each other, there is a TV set on the wall behind the cashier, and it is broadcasting local news, and there are customers at the table next to it shouting, "Just the news about Qiao Mingshan entering the hospital It's been a day, there's no end to it, lady boss, change the channel."

His yelling startled the three of Luo Yuchuan who were eating in silence. Before the proprietress agreed to change the channel, they all looked up at the TV.

Unsurprisingly, Qiao Xinda was interviewed on the news screen, including Qiao Ruige standing behind him.

Luo Yuchuan and Wu Xia glanced at it, then lowered their heads and continued eating.

Jiang Miao froze for a moment, then said in surprise, "That's not..."

Luo Yuchuan gave him a piece of chicken, and said calmly, "His grandfather."

It doesn't need to be too clear, Jiang Miao understands it as soon as he hears it.

As a local, he knew more or less about Qiao's Group. Even if Jiang Miao didn't care about it, he knew about it. He just didn't expect that he would have an intersection with someone from such a background.

He hurriedly turned his head to look at Wu Xia, only to see that Wu Xia was eating the food calmly, and was even picking up the fishbone slowly.

Jiang Miao approached Wu Xia, and asked in a low voice with concern, "You already knew?"

Wu Xia nodded, and smiled again: "It's not difficult to find out if you pay a little attention to this kind of thing."

Luo Yuchuan looked at him, thought for a while, and said, "He doesn't have a good reputation, but he still does things properly. Yesterday was also an accident."

Jiang Miao turned to look at him, then looked at Wu Xia worriedly.

The "he" that Luo Yuchuan mentioned, Jiang Miao, naturally knew who he was referring to. He didn't have much contact with Qiao Ruige, but Wu Xia mentioned this person several times, and he always said "crazy".

Although I don't know what Qiao Ruige has done to Wu Xia, it is not difficult to guess from Wu Xia's attitude.

On the one hand, Jiang Miao believed what Luo Yuchuan said that Qiao Ruige might indeed be a "proper" person, but on the other hand, she was worried that Wu Xia would suffer a loss if he met such a person.

Wu Xia took a sip of her drink, looked up and glanced at the TV that had been changed, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "After all, he is also my benefactor, and I can still tell the difference. However, it may not sound very good. , but should I thank Qiao Dong for being ill at the right time? Heh."

Jiang Miao was a little confused, but Luo Yuchuan understood that if it wasn't for Qiao Mingshan's illness last night, the relationship between Wu Xia and Qiao Ruige would have been really hard to talk about.

At the end of the meal, Jiang Miao said that he was going to the bathroom. As soon as he left, Wu Xia looked at Luo Yuchuan, put away his usual cool expression, and said seriously: "You are serious about Jiang Miao. ?”

Luo Yuchuan looked back at him calmly, and said seriously: "Yes."

Wu Xia stared at him for a while, as if wanting to find out more things from his face, finally shook his head, sighed and said: "See, you are not the kind of person surnamed Qiao, tell you, treat Jiang Miao well." , it's not easy for him."

"Needless to say, I will too." Luo Yuchuan squeezed his fingers, "You said just now that he wanted to redeem the camera, what happened?"

Wu Xia clicked his tongue: "This is a long story, do you understand the situation of his family?"

Luo Yuchuan was stunned, and was about to answer, but Wu Xia smiled and said, "You don't need to answer, I can tell that you don't know anything."

Luo Yuchuan was silent.

He couldn't refute this.

Apart from knowing that Jiang Miao dropped out of Z University, loves photography, and seems to have run away from home, he doesn't even know how old Jiang Miao is this year.

Saying to be "serious" to a person who doesn't fully understand, this is something Luo Yuchuan never thought would happen to him before.

Wu Xia looked at him and said sternly, "I hope you can continue to be serious after you understand it. As for..."

He looked behind Luo Yuchuan, shook his head and said, "You should ask him about those things yourself."

Luo Yuchuan turned his head, and Jiang Miao walked over here while wiping his hands with a tissue.

Probably because water was splashed while washing hands, water droplets hung on Jiang Miao's cheeks, the tip of her nose, and her hair.

He raised his hand to wipe his face, and then smiled at Luo Yuchuan: "Their faucet is broken, and the water is pumping up."

Innocent and innocent.

Luo Yuchuan stood up, took a tissue to help him wipe off the water droplets on his face, and thought to himself, whether I know about those things or not, I will never let this person go.

In the end, it was Luo Yuchuan who paid the bill. Wu Xia was very depressed, and he was still muttering when he came out of the small restaurant: "It is agreed that I invite you not to fight with me, but come and offer me a meal. I can still afford a meal." Yes."

Jiang Miao said helplessly: "Enough is enough for you, and you didn't eat much. The senior doesn't care about this."

Wu Xia looked at him, then at Luo Yuchuan, and nodded suddenly: "Oh, Jiang Miao, you can help Mr. Luo make the decision, right?"

Jiang Miao was taken aback, then looked at Wu Xia again, saw his narrow smile, and instantly understood that he was embarrassed to look at Luo Yuchuan, so he said angrily, "I won't come to rescue you next time."

Luo Yuchuan stood in front and waited, his face was expressionless, but his eyes were soft, and he looked in a good mood.

Wu Xia smiled for a while, waved her hands and said, "Go back first, I have to get a haircut."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Jiang Miao and the others to respond, he turned and walked in the opposite direction.

Jiang Miao blushed slightly and walked to Luo Yuchuan. Luo Yuchuan turned around and walked forward: "I'll take you back and pick up the car by the way."

Luo Yuchuan parked the car on the street outside the community, and it took about ten minutes to walk back from the small restaurant. Both of them unconsciously walked very slowly, and neither of them wanted to end the journey early.

It was already dark, and street lights were lit on both sides of the road. This area is an old city, and the surrounding area is a mature community environment. At this moment, there are many residents who come out for a walk after dinner.There was a night market on the side of the street, selling small groceries and fruits, and there was a group of aunties in the open space in front of the small supermarket with speakers and danced in the square.

Luo Yuchuan and Jiang Miao walked through the crowd full of life, and the slightly awkward atmosphere subconsciously relaxed.

Jiang Miao remembered something that she hadn't told Luo Yuchuan: "Senior, I'm going out to take pictures with my friends tomorrow."

Luo Yuchuan was stunned: "Go out to shoot?"

"Well, I'm going to a scenic spot in Linshi. A netizen over there made an appointment online. It might take two or three days."

"Oh," Luo Yuchuan nodded, "So, are you working with a friend's studio?"

"Ah, yes."

He told Luo Yuchuan about his relationship and cooperation with Hu Chengjie in detail. Luo Yuchuan listened silently, nodded occasionally, and finally said: "This is very good."

With just five words, Jiang Miao seemed to have received a compliment, raising her face and smiling at Luo Yuchuan.

Luo Yuchuan couldn't hold back, and raised his hand to scratch his nose. Jiang Miao quickly covered his nose, looked around, and said with wide eyes, "Senior, how old are you?"

Luo Yuchuan pursed his lips and said nothing. He looked up and saw that he had reached the gate of the community. He stopped and turned to look at Jiang Miao.

Jiang Miao was in trouble.

To treat today as a date, according to the process, he has come here, it seems that he should invite Luo Yuchuan to sit upstairs, but even if Jiang Miao is not a delicate boy, he still cares about some things.

Like an untidy room.

Last night Luo Yuchuan carried Wu Xia on his back and left without staying. The room was a little messy. If he had to ask someone to sit up, it would be different.

He and Wu Xia still love to be clean, and they usually clean up very frequently, but it is always inevitable to throw clothes around.

Thinking about Luo Yuchuan's house being clean and tidy, Jiang Miao couldn't say that.

The most important thing is that if you really want to treat it as a date and invite someone to sit up, the meaning seems to be even more unusual. Jiang Miao opened her mouth a few times, but she didn't have the nerve to make a sound.

It was Luo Yuchuan who solved the problem. He said, "Let's walk again."

How to go?Go around the neighborhood in circles.

After living here for more than half a year, Jiang Miao went around the outside of the community for the first time.

It turns out that there is a dental clinic here, oh, there is also a coffee bar there, if you have a chance, you can invite your seniors to have a drink or two here.The decoration of this flower shop is quite stylish. Next time, I can buy a few bouquets of flowers to decorate the room and then ask the seniors to sit down.

Thinking about something all the way, Jiang Miao heard what Luo Yuchuan was saying to him in a daze, and turned to look at Luo Yuchuan blankly: "What did you say, senior?"

Luo Yuchuan smiled helplessly: "What did you do today?"

"Oh, I... I went to Teacher Yuan's house today, by the way, I saw a picture of your classmate reunion."

"Huh?" Luo Yuchuan was a little surprised, but he was relieved in a blink of an eye, "The old man showed it to you."

Jiang Miao nodded: "He asked me to help him get the software. I thought I could see the senior, but in the end, you showed a little face."

Luo Yuchuan hummed: "I have to go to work that day, and I didn't participate in the day's activities, so I went to have dinner."

Jiang Miao still remembered Yuan Kuohai's emotion, and wanted to ask how the relationship between Luo Yuchuan and those classmates was, so she endured it again.

Talking about this now really spoils the atmosphere, but it's a pity that some people didn't think so much.

Then I heard Luo Yuchuan say: "How much money is there for your camera?"

He said it lightly, as if he was asking casually, but Jiang Miao thought that with such a cautious personality, he might have been struggling with how to ask better from the moment he heard Wu Xia talk about it.

Don't ask why you want to pawn the camera, just ask how much money is left.

Jiang Miao was moved and embarrassed. He didn't want Luo Yuchuan to know about this kind of thing.

"It's really not that bad." Jiang Miao made up his mind to solve it by himself, he pointed to the side of the road, "Hey, the plums in that store seem to be pretty good, let's go buy some."

Carrying a bag of plums, the two walked to the gate of the community again.

Jiang Miao couldn't remember how many laps she walked, three laps, or four laps?He was struggling in his heart, if Luo Yuchuan was not allowed to go upstairs to sit and sit, would the two of them continue to circle around?

Luo Yuchuan's phone rang, he took it out, frowned slightly, and picked it up helplessly.

Jiang Miao glanced over and saw the word "She Min" displayed on the phone.

female?

Jiang Miao looked at Luo Yuchuan suspiciously, Luo Yuchuan responded with a hmm, hung up the phone, and sighed, "I'm leaving, I'm going back to work overtime."

"Huh? Going home?"

"I have to go back to the courtyard, you..." Luo Yuchuan looked at him, as if he still wanted to say something, but then he raised his hand and scratched his nose, "Go to bed early."

After scraping his nose, he turned around and left, very simply.

Jiang Miao stood there rubbing her nose for a long time before she woke up. This man, what did he say to adjust himself, did he over-adjust?

Walking alone into the community, there was a rush of footsteps behind him. Before he could turn his head, he was slapped hard on the shoulder. Jiang Miao turned her face away, and it turned out to be Wu Xia.

Wu Xia put her arm on his shoulder and shook her head again and again: "What are you two playing? I specially created opportunities for you, but you two circled around the community. It's too innocent."

Jiang Miao blushed immediately, and turned to stare at Wu Xia.

Wu Xia didn't care, and pointed back at the gate of the community: "I'm standing over there smoking, just watching you go around and around, aren't you tired?"

Jiang Miao concluded.

It's not that I mind Wu Xia's ridicule, but the feeling of being watched the whole process is a bit shameful.

He said depressedly: "Didn't you get a haircut? Why did you change it to peeping?"

Wu Xia scratched her hair: "The dedicated barber isn't here, so I'll go another day. Besides, I'm not peeping, I'm looking at it openly."

Jiang Miao pursed her lips and raised her arm abruptly.

Wu Xia immediately stepped aside: "Hey, don't try to sneak attack me, brother has practiced before."

As he said that, he leaned up to pat Jiang Miao again, and said earnestly, "There are not many people like him who can be so innocent, you have to cherish it."

Jiang Miao quickened her pace: "Don't talk to you, I'm going out tomorrow, and I have to go up to pack my luggage."

Wu Xia followed unhurriedly, and after a while, he sighed: "I really envy those of you who have skills."

Hearing what he said, Jiang Miao also slowed down, and turned to look at him seriously: "Do you want to learn? I can teach you."

Wu Xia hurriedly waved his hands: "I don't have this cell, and it's too expensive to learn this. If I want to learn it, I'll learn something that doesn't cost so much."

Jiang Miao nodded, thought for a while and then asked worriedly: "That Second Young Master Qiao...he won't come to pester you again, will he?"

Wu Xia was stunned for a moment, then laughed at herself: "People like them don't have the stamina, they will forget about me in two days."
