The summary report meeting on flood relief was over, and Chu Tianqi did not return to his hometown, but stayed. He will attend a meeting to be held by the Education Bureau tomorrow, and the content of the meeting will be on the acceptance of universal compulsory education.

It was almost noon, he found a small restaurant, asked for a meat dish and a bowl of rice, and had a quick lunch. Then, I came to the party school guest house and stayed. The party school guest house is a place where the township staff often live when they go on business trips, the price is affordable, and it is close to the station.

Today he was placed in a two-person room, and a bed for one night cost 30 yuan, and the other bed was still empty. After eating, there was nothing to do, and Lei Peng was not in the county seat, so he simply lay down on the bed* and fell asleep. I slept late yesterday, got up early today, and fell asleep as soon as I lay down.

He slept very soundly, and when he woke up, it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon. Even though I slept with the fan on, I still sweated a lot on my head. Chu Tianqi thought to himself, it would be nice if he could have the air conditioning of a big hotel, but then again, even if there is, he can't afford to live in it.

Chu Tianqi brought a basin of cold water, washed his face, wiped it, and felt much cooler. He grabbed his belongings, locked the door, and walked out of the guest house, walking aimlessly.

Crossing two main streets full of potholes, and passing through an alley, you will arrive at the Ring Road, which is bordered by the Yuchi River. After several years of treatment, the Yuchi River has become much clearer, and the unpleasant rancid smell has basically disappeared. But there will still be garbage dumped by the river, which is as disgusting as a clean face with snot.

The weather in mid-August is still relatively hot, and although it has been dried now, the temperature is not low. Therefore, the riverside has become an ideal place for people to cool down from the heat. In the shade of the trees by the river and by the railing of the bridge, groups of elderly people are playing poker, and many young men and women are whispering. There are very few people like Chu Tianqi who are alone and shadowy, and occasionally one or two are also in a hurry. Chu Tianqi stopped, leaned on the railing of the bridge, looked at the gurgling water, and thought about something.

"Ding Woo Bang", the mobile phone rings. Chu Tianqi took out his mobile phone, which showed an unfamiliar number from out of town, but he still pressed the answer button.

"Hey, hello!" Chu Tianqi said into his phone.

“……”

There was no reply on the phone, and Chu Tianqi asked again: "Who are you?" ”

“……”

Still no one answered, Chu Tianqi couldn't help but be a little displeased, so he said in a very rushed voice: "Who are you, don't say it again, I'll hang up." ”

"Alas, you have no conscience, and you haven't been in contact with your family for so long. A woman's voice came from her phone.

Listening to the tone full of resentment, the voice was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, Chu Tianqi simply didn't say anything, waiting for the other party to report to his home.

"Do you hear who I am?" the other man's voice was still full of sadness.

Chu Tianqi shook his head and said two words: "No." ”

"You shake your head, don't you have the slightest impression that I saved you!" the woman's voice came.

The more he talked, the more unspeakable he became, and he said that he had saved me, Chu Tianqi really didn't have this impression, so he shook his head again and said, "I can't think of it, you can say it yourself." ”

"Well, why is it just shaking your head? Isn't there any impression at all, it seems that I am not even a passer-by in your memory. The woman's voice was full of poignant.

"You ......" Chu Tianqi just said a word, and suddenly thought, how could he see himself shaking his head? Hurriedly turned around to look, on the other side of the bridge, a girl in a lake blue dress, was leaning against the railing, holding a mobile phone in her right hand, pinching her nose with her left hand, looking at herself.

Seeing Chu Tianqi looking at herself, the girl took her left hand away from her nose and said into the phone, "Do you know who I am?"

Of course I do, I've seen her! And now she doesn't pinch her nose anymore and can hear it even by listening to her voice. Chu Tianqi said: "Okay, don't make trouble, let's waste less phone bills." With that, he hung up the phone, put it in his pocket, and looked at the girl.

The girl had also put her phone in her bag at this time, and was looking at Chu Tianqi with a smile.

"Come here. Chu Tianqi said.

The girl said, "Come here." ”

"Why did I go over?" Chu Tianqi said with a smile.

"Well, I'll let you come here. The girl squirmed.

She spoke as if she was being coquettish to her boyfriend. Attracting passers-by, they couldn't help but look at the man and woman, with a smile on their faces.

When Chu Tianqi saw this situation, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly walked to the opposite side. The county seat is so big, maybe you will meet acquaintances, or people who know you. If it is spread out, it will be too detrimental to his glorious image if he and a girl are greasy and crooked on the street.

Chu Tianqi quickly came to the opposite side and came to the girl.

"You're so good, you're still here!" said the girl sweetly, her body still twisting and writhing deliberately.

Chu Tianqi frowned and said, "Speak well." ”

"Hahaha...... Is the chief scared?" the girl said with a smile. After laughing, he said in a normal tone, "Why are you here?"

"I came to the meeting today and have a meeting tomorrow, so I didn't go back. Chu Tianqi replied, "When did you come back, and where have you been during this period of time?"

"I? Do you know how to ask people? Don't call me a single phone. The girl said resentfully, "I, first ......" she said as she moved her steps, and Chu Tianqi also followed behind her, listening and walking forward.

The girl is none other than Yue Tingting, who has not been seen for many days, Liu Wenli's cousin. She was rescued by Chu Tianqi a year ago, and helped Chu Tianqi in the first month of this year. It was she who deliberately faced herself in front of Ning Junqi, mocked Ning Junqi sarcastically, and choked Ning Junqi enough, causing Ning Junqi to misunderstand herself. Later, the relationship finally eased, and was called Ning Junqi by a phone call from Yue Tingting, and she called Ning Junqi an "older leftover girl", and her previous efforts were wasted. If He Jiaojiao hadn't appeared and explained what had happened, maybe he would still be misunderstood by Ning Junqi now.

Through Yue Tingting's narration, Chu Tianqi knew that Yue Tingting came back last time, and she only stayed for about ten days before leaving and went to ** city. After being introduced, she worked as a front desk manager in a hotel in ** city, this time it was a centralized vacation, only back for a few days, and she would leave tomorrow.

The two talked and chatted, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the river. Yue Tingting stopped, looked at Chu Tianqi beside her, and said, "Tianqi, do you miss me? I ......"

"Don't make such a fuss, okay? Let's have a good conversation. Chu Tianqi interrupted her.

"What's the matter, you're so ruthless?" Yue Tingting said aggrievedly.

Chu Tianqi looked at Yue Tingting and said solemnly: "Yue Tingting, I have always regarded your cousin Wen Li as my own sister, you are her cousin, then it is my sister, please don't do this, okay?"

"Okay. Yue Tingting replied happily, but the next words made Chu Tianqi speechless again, "If you let my cousin be your girlfriend, then you will be my brother-in-law, and I will definitely not talk to you like this again." ”

"You...... You're here yourself, I'm leaving. Chu Tianqi said, stomped his feet, and walked forward quickly.

Yue Tingting shouted screamed from behind: "Chu Tianqi, you stop, you stop." ”

Chu Tianqi ignored her and continued to stride forward.

"Okay, you'll regret it, I'm not alive, I'm really not alive. Yue Tingting's voice roared. Immediately attracted the onlookers of everyone by the river, and there was a sound of persuasion.

Hearing Yue Tingting's words, Chu Tianqi thought that she was just scaring herself, and was thinking about whether to go back. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting from behind: "Young man, come back quickly, the water has reached the girl's neck." ”

"Huh?" Chu Tianqi was shocked, didn't think much about it, quickly turned around, and ran back at a speed of more than 100 meters. When he came to the river, he pushed aside the crowd, and was about to jump into the river to save people, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he was angry and ridiculous.

I saw Yue Tingting, who was wearing a blue dress, standing barefoot in the river, looking at herself and smiling, and those people by the river also looked at herself with a smile.

Chu Tianqi asked, "You, you lied to me?"

"How did I lie to you?" Yue Tingting said seemingly innocently.

"Didn't you say that the water was up to your neck, how could you still be alive now?" Chu Tianqi snorted.

"I'm making people shout. Isn't this almost up to the neck?" Yue Tingting said, pointing to her feet with her hand.

"You ......" Chu Tianqi was made to cry and laugh by Yue Tingting's rogue words, and the "water to the neck" she shouted meant to the feet and neck. "What do you want?"

"No, you can't leave me alone, you can't dump me. Yue Tingting said aggrievedly, "Otherwise, I will go deeper, and when the water drowns me, I will admit it." As she spoke, she began to move.

"Young man, can't you do that, what a handsome girl, just throw it off!" said a bald old man.

A gray-haired woman also helped: "That is, today's young people, in the bowl they eat, look at the pot, like the new and hate the old, all Chen Shimei." ”

"Young man, you still don't agree? The bald old man stomped his feet in a hurry.

Chu Tianqi said patiently: "Master, there is nothing between us, it's not what you think, I didn't dump her at all." ”

"Don't quibble, if there's really nothing to do, can you force the child to be like that?" said the bald old man urgently.

The white-haired woman pointed at Chu Tianqi and said, "You, you are too ruthless. Now girls are like that, and you're still saying things like that. I'd like to ask, is your heart red? Hmph, it must be a black heart. ”

Passers-by next to him also accused:

"It's so unusual. ”

"Chen Shimei, a negative man. ”

"Those who have received a thousand knives will be damaged. ”

"Call the police, someone will take care of him. ”

Listening to everyone's gossip, Chu Tianqi had a hard time arguing, and Yue Tingting had already walked out of a short distance, and the water was already wet* the hem of her skirt.

In such a situation, and worried that Yue Tingting had three longs and two shorts, Chu Tianqi had to grit his teeth and said, "Yue Tingting, if you come back, I won't leave you alone." ”

Yue Tingting paused slightly and continued to walk forward.

Chu Tianqi didn't know why, and the bald old man next to him beckoned: "Young man, you said 'I love you', I won't dump you." ”

"I, I don't dump you. Although Chu Tianqi was a hundred unwilling, his life was at stake, so he had to say it against his will.

Yue Tingting finally stopped, turned her head, and left a bright smile.
