Chi Hong went to Yancheng for the second time in the summer of the Chinese New Year. This time, he was not alone. He also had several classmates with whom he could get along easily. It was rare for these classmates to have a holiday and they wanted to go out. Xijing, go to the world outside to broaden your horizons.
"Because I go out a lot, these classmates of mine asked me to be their guide. They took them sightseeing from Xijing to Jiangnan, and took them to eat and drink. They had a lot of fun. I stayed in Jiangnan. After more than a month, I suddenly remembered that I had never seen summer in Yancheng, so I discussed it with my classmates and headed straight from Jiangnan to the southwest border. Coincidentally, when we arrived in Yancheng, it happened to be the beginning of summer." Chi Hong He sighed deeply, and it could be seen from his expression that that period should be one of the happiest times in his life. “Unlike the dry heat in the north and the pure humid heat in the south, the early summer in Yancheng is actually a little cool. This is obviously different from the place where miasma thrives in our impression, and it brings us a big surprise. "
"How long have you stayed in Yancheng?" Shen Cha squinted his eyes, glanced at the person who was secretly brought by the two shadows and hidden in the dark, and then looked at Chi Hong, "Did you meet Mrs. Teng?"
"Perhaps this is destiny, and it is the fate of the two of us to meet again." Chi Hong nodded, "Of course we met, otherwise there would be no story behind it. When we were in Yancheng, we chose the place where I stayed last time The owner and shopkeeper of that inn still remembered me, so they arranged the best room for us."
Shen Cha, Shen Haolin, and His Highness Prince Ning looked at each other. If their guess was correct, this inn was probably related to Mrs. Teng. It might be one of the Teng family's industries, so he was deeply impressed by Chi Hong, otherwise he would be greeted every day. With so many guests, it is absolutely impossible to recognize at a glance the guests who stayed here only a short time a year ago.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that several people's expressions seemed not to be good, Chi Hong looked at them curiously, "Is there any problem?"
"No." Shen Cha waved his hand, "You continue."
"Oh!" Chi Hong felt that these people were weird and always said things that he couldn't understand, but he didn't dare to ask, so he could only bury his doubts in his heart. "We played in Yancheng for about seven or eight days, and we had a lot of fun every day. My friends all felt that they had found a treasure. Yancheng is well-deserved, and it is indeed a treasure land with outstanding people. However, after playing for these few days, everyone My physical strength is a bit unable to keep up. As scholars, we are no better than generals like you who have been practicing martial arts since childhood. We are the ones who are not diligent in our four bodies."
"Senior Brother, you know yourself quite well." His Highness Prince Ning touched his chin and showed a meaningless smile towards Chi Hong, "I'm sorry to interrupt you, please continue."
Chi Hong glanced at His Highness Prince Ning coldly. He was becoming more and more disgusted with this man. He did not regret his assassination today at all, but he was a little regretful that he could not really scare him.
"The day we wandered around the city, we had lunch at the restaurant where Mrs. Teng and I met last time."
"Wait a minute." Shen Cha held her chin and looked at Chi Hong curiously, "Why did you choose this restaurant? Do you think his food is delicious? Or..." She raised her eyebrows slightly, "Or Mr. Chi thinks he will do it again Any chance encounter?"
"It should be both, right? Firstly, the food in that restaurant is the best in the entire Yancheng. Secondly, I really want to try my luck."
"It turns out that Mr. Chi's luck is pretty good, right?"
"Yeah, I'm very lucky. When we went to eat, it was already past dinner time, but there were still a lot of people in the restaurant, but the private rooms upstairs were gone, and there were more of us. , the shopkeeper found a relatively quiet corner in the hall on the first floor. When we were about to finish our meal, we saw Mrs. Teng coming down from upstairs with a maid, an entourage, and two boss-like people. Mrs. Teng must have seen me, but she didn’t come to see me. After sending the two bosses away, she came back. At that time, I felt that even though a year had passed, it was as if the last time we met was yesterday. She was no stranger at all. Because I still had a friend here and she also had something to deal with, we exchanged a few simple words and made an appointment to meet at the Linglong Tower in Yancheng the next day. When my friends saw Mrs. Teng, they even teased her. There were a few words, but it was just enough and nothing too excessive."
"You went to your appointment?"
"Of course." Chi Hong nodded, "When I was in Yancheng, in addition to taking my friends to play, I would drink tea and eat with Mrs. Teng in various teahouses and restaurants from time to time, chat and relax. A moment of anxiety.”
"What did you all talk about?"
"Well..." Chi Hong recalled, "What has happened to each other this year, what have we done, what have we gained, what interesting people have we met, what interesting things have we seen, that's about it. . However, it seems that we talk more about eating."
"Eat?" Shen Cha was stunned, "Is this Mrs. Teng a good eater?"
"I can't say it's delicious. I probably prefer those snacks. That's what we talk about more." Chi Hong smiled sheepishly, "Sometimes, I think she's quite down-to-earth. The ladies in my impression are really quite different."
"So, you are attracted to her?"
"She does have such charm." Chi Hong smiled, "It's very comfortable to get along with her, which will make you forget her identity and her gender. In front of you, she is also a living person with emotions and sorrows. people."
"Everyone is a real person, aren't they?"
"That's different." Chi Hong shook his head and disagreed with Shen Cha's statement, "Many people have multiple faces, especially the people I have come into contact with since childhood. They are very good at talking to each other. Damn it, you can't tell at all what those people said, which ones are true, which ones are false, which ones are sincere, and which ones are just perfunctory. But Mrs. Teng is different. She is very sincere and treats everyone People are very friendly and kind. Even when I met her for the first time, she was still considerate of the other person in such a situation. She said that the other person had no choice but to be considerate. "
Ying Wu, who had been hiding in the dark for a long time, looked at the person next to him and patted him gently.
"What do you want to say about this evaluation?"
"If she wasn't like this, how could she have deceived so many people? There are thousands of people talking about her!"
"Then have you met this Mr. Chi?"
"I've seen it, not only at the villa in Yancheng he mentioned, but also at the old house."
