Chapter 71 Nonsense "Friends"

Chi Yue, who woke up naturally after sleeping, followed the warm sunlight and looked at the curtains with gaps, feeling the wind blowing.

It is rare and refreshing to return to the temperature that should be in golden autumn, and even the breeze that blows seems to be gentle.

She rubbed her eyes and realized that the person lying beside her was not there, so she got up and stretched, put on her clothes and walked out the door.

A scent came from the kitchen.

She came closer and saw that Wen Qizhou and Xie Changxiao, who got up early, had prepared three dishes and one soup, and were about to serve them to the dinner table.

"Are you awake?" Sensing her approaching, Wen Qizhou looked at her softly: "Did you wash up? It's time to eat."

"not yet."

"Then you go wash first, we'll wait for you."

She returned to the bedroom to wash, then tapped on her slippers and ran to the dining table, and went out with them after her stomach was full.

Walking out of the small green brick building, the sun like a gauze spreads down, covering the people coming and going, coating them with a layer of light golden light, adding a touch of warmth.

They took a stroll around the neighborhood, followed the standing signs on the side of the road, and walked towards the central square with many stalls.

Ning Tong has never set up a trading market.

If the residents need it, they will trade in the square with patrols. The area is large enough to accommodate more people.

Chi Yue searched around the square, and finally saw a face in memory at the end, and hurriedly approached him.

She stopped in front of a stall with many daily necessities, and her eyes fell on the sick-looking stall owner.

The other party was about the same age as them, wearing a black windbreaker with a cropped cut, covering his lips and coughing from time to time.

"Yan Shuo?" She asked uncertainly.

Hearing his own name suddenly, Yan Shuo looked up at the person in front of him, and asked gently, "May I ask who you are?"

To be sure it was him, Chi Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm sister Yaxian's friend, Chi Yue." She bent her knees and squatted down, smiling slightly: "She showed me your photo."

"so."

Yan Shuo had never heard of her name.

Out of vigilance, he sized Chi Yue up without a trace, but treated him politely: "Yaxian has something to go out."

"How soon will she be back?"

"not sure."

Chi Yue nodded.

She didn't care whether the other party was telling the truth or not, she gathered up the square cloth on which he placed his daily necessities: "I want all of these."

"all?"

"Yes." She took off the backpack filled with supplies in advance: "I don't have enough points, can I exchange supplies with you?"

Yan Shuo raised his hand to catch the backpack, opened the zipper to take a look, and saw that there was not only meat in it, but also the cough syrup and asthma inhalers he needed, his expression changed suddenly.

"No, it's too expensive." Yan Shuo wanted to return the backpack to her, but his unsatisfied body started to cough again.

Seeing that his face was flushed from coughing, Wen Qizhou walked to his side, patted his back to help him breathe, then picked up the thermos cup at his feet, unscrewed the lid and handed it to him.

"Thank you, thank you." Their kindness was easily captured by Yan Shuo, and it was inevitable to feel ashamed for a while.

Yan Shuo regained his strength: "Sorry, I didn't tell the truth just now." He drank two sips of water, and then returned the backpack to Chi Yue: "She's gone to exchange points, and she'll be back later."

"It's ok."

Chi Yue herself doesn't mind.

She held the two corners of the square cloth and tied them into knots, and handed them to Xie Changxiao beside her: "We still have something to do, we will get together another day."

In order to avoid being exposed as a "friend", she decided to wait for Yan Shuo to take the medicine before finding a chance to meet Wen Yaxian.

Also save them from not accepting.

"Hey..." Yan Shuo couldn't catch up with them, so he could only hold his backpack carefully, and sat back in his seat to wait for Wen Yaxian to come over.

After about twenty minutes, Wen Yaxian, who was wearing a peaked cap and a mask covering most of her face, came to him.

She lowered her eyes, and those beautiful peach blossom eyes stared at the place where they set up the stall: "A Shuo, have you been robbed?"

Yan Shuo: "..."

He picked up his backpack and thermos, took her hand and walked home, talking about Chi Yue stuffing him with supplies.

"Chi Yue?" Wen Yaxian racked her brains for a while, but couldn't remember who this friend was: "What does she look like?"

"do not you remember?"

Yan Shuo cast a condemning look: "She gave you so many things for your sake, and you forgot about him?"

"..." Wen Yaxian touched the tip of her nose, and took his arm coquettishly: "Maybe it was my former colleague? Didn't they all use pseudonyms back then? How would I know if you didn't tell me what you looked like?"

Wen Yaxian comes from a divorced family.

In her junior year, in order to treat her mother who was suffering from cancer, she had no choice but to find a part-time job as a wine escort at Fengyue.

Accompanying wine is very profitable, but my mother's cancer is also very expensive. She has been exhausted physically and mentally for more than half a year, and she has not saved a penny of the money she earned from drinking and vomiting, and it is all handed over to the hospital.

If Yan Shuo hadn't appeared in time and lent her a sum of money, she might have gone down the road of depravity when she was in a desperate situation.

Now that she mentions "colleagues", Yan Shuo also knows what's going on, and carefully recalls Chi Yue's face to describe it.

"Do you remember?"

"...No." Wen Yaxian walked into the small green brick building not far from the square, took out the key in her pocket, and opened the one-bedroom apartment they rented: "Your description is too abstract."

Yan Shuo was speechless.

He sat on the chair and stool, and took out the bacon, sausages, dried fish and shrimp, two bottles of cough syrup, three boxes of asthma inhalers, and antipyretics and anti-inflammatory drugs from his backpack.

"There is cough syrup?" Wen Yaxian picked up a bottle of cough syrup, full of surprises: "As expected of my sister!"

"...Are you sorry?"

"Excuse me." She poured out a cup of syrup and fed it to his mouth: "Drink it quickly! Don't disappoint my sister."

Yan Shuo has hereditary asthma.

Recently, there was no medicine for him, and he coughed very badly. Wen Yaxian was so worried that she couldn't sleep, her brows and eyes were always full of worry, and she was afraid that he would leave her one day.

Now I can finally feel relieved.

She stared at Yan Shuo and finished drinking the medicine, then took out the inhaler for him: "How do you feel? Is it better?"

"Well, it's relieved." The inhalant worked very quickly, and his dull chest did get some relief.

"That's fine."

Wen Xianya put away the things Chi Yue gave, and hummed happily: "Let's treat her to dinner tomorrow."

"Why?" Yan Shuo breathed out, and looked up at that beautiful face: "I don't know where she lives."

"Why don't you ask?"

"forget."

Wen Yaxian pondered: "Then, how many times should we go to the square recently? Maybe we can meet."

"It's okay." Yan Shuo remembered the phrase "I've seen the photos" mentioned by Chi Yue, and asked Wen Yaxian again, seeing that her memory still couldn't be triggered, he vaguely felt a little strange.

He stroked the thermos cup, thinking that he could meet Chi Yue again in the future, so he suppressed his doubts for the time being, and didn't delve into it further.
