Chapter 45 Where to go

What Li Yuqian and Tang Rui didn't expect was that Tang Qiaoning arrived at the villa earlier than Li Xu.

Less than 5 minutes after she put down the phone, Tang Qiaoning had already arrived at the gate of the community.

She happened to be nearby. After receiving the call, she didn't take a taxi, but rode her electric bike in directly. Led by the property security guard at the door, she arrived at Li Xu's house. However, she didn't go in directly. Instead, she put her hands behind her back, walked around the villa with interest with the light steps unique to young girls, and looked around curiously.

Tang Qiaoning walked to the osmanthus tree in the center of the courtyard, stood up and hugged the trunk, feeling its thickness. She came to the stone table, reached out to brush off the dust on the stone bench, sat down and stood up again, walked to the side of the villa, approached the wooden flower stand, fiddled with the dry vines with her hands, and walked to the storage hut. She tried to push the door, and the door hinge made a slight creaking sound.

Anyway... I'm never idle.

It’s okay, not bad, much more tasteful than my dad.

She parked her beloved electric car in the yard of the villa, and then followed the aunt who was cleaning the yard into the villa.

When she went in, two middle-aged men were drinking tea. In front of them was a large tea set. They were doing all sorts of messy actions, such as pouring, washing, rinsing, brewing, and mixing. It took them a long time to pour two small cups of tea. To be honest, it was really boring. Compared to drinking this fancy tea, which you couldn't get much of in the end, it was more enjoyable to drink iced black tea for three yuan a bottle.

After she came, the two middle-aged men naturally focused their attention and conversation on her.

Out of politeness, Li Yuqian asked a few questions with a smile, all of which he thought Tang Qiaoning would be interested in, such as how was life abroad, what she had adapted to, and what she hadn't adapted to... Then he pretended to listen very attentively to narrow the distance between them.

Tang Qiaoning's reaction could be considered well-mannered. She sat there obediently and answered questions sweetly. Tang Rui beside her smiled and nodded from time to time.

After a while, Tang Qiaoning looked around and asked, "By the way, where's Li Xu?"

"He hasn't come back yet, but he should be soon."

"Oh..." Tang Qiaoning didn't really want to waste time with two middle-aged men. She made up an excuse and said that the flowers in the yard outside the villa looked beautiful and she wanted to go out and take a look. After getting their consent, she slipped outside and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there is actually nothing to play with in this yard, and she doesn't like flowers, she feels much happier here. It is really tiring to pretend to be well-behaved and cute in front of the elders. There is no way. Although she can say whatever her father says at home and it is not an exaggeration to say that she obeys her in everything, but when she is outside, she has to make him proud.

If I had known that Li Xu had not arrived yet, I would not have arrived so early.

She slowly walked to the side of the electric scooter. There were pink artificial silk tassels hanging on both sides of the body. They were of moderate length. The breeze blew over them, and they swayed gently, intertwining and rubbing against each other, making a slight rustling sound. She fiddled with it twice with her hand, remembering the day when Li Xu helped her change the battery.

After staying abroad for a long time, there are indeed some things that I am not very used to when I return to China. The biggest confusion is interpersonal communication... Compared with people in foreign countries, Chinese people are more introverted. This is reflected in the fact that when they meet strangers, very few people will take the initiative to say hello or chat with them, while this situation is more common abroad.

She had noticed the difference within a few days, so when her electric scooter broke down that day, she felt a little surprised when Li Xu took the initiative to strike up a conversation with her.

She almost thought he was an extrovert, but later at the dinner table, he seemed to be quiet. However, every time she was asked a question, he could answer it appropriately. All these details added up to form the first impression Li Xu left on her: calm and reserved.

At least, Li Xu is not a disgusting person at the moment.

She had just returned to China. Although she would go back to live there for a period of time during the holidays every year, she had such fragmented time and no social occasions, so she really didn't have many friends. When her father suggested that Li Xu take her around for a walk, she agreed very happily.

She began to think about where to go next... Of course, she couldn't just wander around like a headless fly, she had to find an interesting place. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but frown slightly... The impression Li Xu left on her last time was that he didn't seem to be the kind of boy who liked to play around. She hoped he wouldn't take her to the park, or to places like the oceanarium or the zoo.

She laughed softly...If that was true, she would never play with him again if he took her to such an uncreative place.

……

Before Li Xu even got home, Chen Feiyang called him two or three times to urge him back. After some further questioning, he finally figured out the old place Chen Feiyang was referring to... the go-kart racing base in the suburbs. Li Xu recalled that in his previous life, he had been a Supreme VIP there, spending tens of thousands of yuan and purchasing a full set of equipment. He also held the record for the go-kart racing base... It was precisely because of this that he had the illusion that he had a natural talent for driving and could even race.

After I really got involved in racing, I didn’t go to the karting base for a long time.

Compared to his amazing talent, Chen Feiyang is a typical person with slow reaction and uncoordinated limbs, but that kid's addiction is even worse than his.

Actually, it wouldn't be a big deal if he drove the car. Today is the weekend and his dad is still arranging things to do when he goes back to school. The intensity of study has been quite high during this period. He cannot take a driver's license test if he is not 18 years old. He hasn't touched the steering wheel for a long time, and Li Xu really misses it.

Unable to resist Chen Feiyang's constant phone calls, Li Xu had no choice but to quicken his pace and prepare to change his clothes. When he walked into the yard, the girl in the corner also saw him, her face full of joy, and then she came over to greet him generously: "You're back?"

Li Xu felt a little strange, but still replied: "Yes, I'm back."

"Then shall we set off directly?" Tang Qiaoning asked.

Li Xu was even more puzzled after hearing this, and subconsciously asked, "Where are we going?"

From Li Xu's perspective, this question was about "let's go," but to Tang Qiaoning, it sounded like, "Where should we go?" She felt a little helpless. "I don't really understand. Shouldn't you be the one thinking about this?" But since the question had been asked, she had no choice but to think about it and said, "Then let's go to the museum!"

Li Xu felt a little speechless. Tang Qiaoning's tone... It was as if this had been planned in advance. Was this a foreign custom? But it was difficult to express his inner thoughts directly, so Li Xu smiled and said sincerely and politely, "Next time, I have something to do..."

Tang Qiaoning's expression froze, "Ah?"

Li Xu didn't care. After saying goodbye to Tang Qiaoning, he turned and went into the house.

10 minute later.

Li Xu came out feeling very troubled, cursing... These two old guys, really, what's going on...

He looked around but didn't find Tang Qiaoning in the villa. He sighed helplessly. He didn't ask for Tang Qiaoning's phone number when he went out just now. He wondered if she had left. At this moment, he saw the girl at the door pushing an electric car and coming back helplessly while sighing.

Li Xu said with a sincere smile: "I'm sorry, what happened just now... My uncle and my dad didn't tell me, it was a misunderstanding... Did you go out for a walk?"

"Lost..."

"Uh."

"I want to go home."

"Well... otherwise, I'll take you somewhere."

"No." The girl was unhappy.

"it is good."

"..."

The girl became even more unhappy.
