Chapter 219 Three Boys with Backpacks [Update ]
After the New Year's Eve party, Lu Yuanqiu took Bai Qingxia to the Four Seasons Fresh Supermarket after leaving school. As soon as they entered the supermarket, a message alert sound suddenly came from their mobile phone.
It was Qin Luo who sent him a few photos. Since he didn't add Bai Qingxia on QQ, he discussed everything with Lu Yuanqiu.
These photos show Bai Qingxia dancing. Some are of her front face, and some are of her side face. The pictures are all very beautiful.
『Qin Luo』: The editor-in-chief asked me which photo to choose? Would you mind showing your whole face?
Lu Yuanqiu looked at all the photos and replied, "The last one is a side profile. We are still students, so it is not appropriate to show too much of our faces. Besides, this kind of photo focuses on freehand, not realistic. The hazy feeling can actually stimulate most people's memories and associations. If Bai Qingxia's appearance is too clear, it will be difficult for them to recall the campus heroine in their hearts."
『Qin Luo』: It’s like this, listening to Junior Brother Lu talk really makes me, as a senior, feel ashamed of myself.
Lu Yuanqiu smiled and replied, "Senior, you are too polite. If it is a video recording, you can post it on the official website without worry. The spread rate of a video will definitely not be as high as that of a newspaper, so feel free to post it."
This was indeed the case in 2010 when the Internet environment was not that developed.
Qin Luo: OK, I'll tell the editor right away. By the way, the editor also asked me if I would mind including the photo of you watching the girl dancing in the audience. There will probably be two photos posted in the newspaper.
Lu Yuanqiu was stunned for a moment, thinking of the scene in the audience, and immediately replied awkwardly: "Don't show me dancing, it's too embarrassing, just show me standing there quietly."
At that time, Lu Yuanqiu was so happy to see Bai Qingxia breaking through herself on the stage that he couldn't help but jump up and dance along. Thinking about it now, it felt like his toes were digging into the ground.
I am so excited, so excited...
『Qin Luo』: Hahaha, okay.
『Qin Luo』: Junior Brother Lu, I hope this is not the last time we meet, and I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future.
"One leaf tells the coming of autumn": Me too, Senior Qin.
Qin Luo replied with a smiling expression. When Lu Yuanqiu saw this expression, he had no desire to reply and put his phone away.
Bai Qingxia had already walked towards her father and was wiping the sweat from his forehead with toilet paper, while Lu Yuanqiu was looking at his father next to the cash register.
Lu Tian was trimming his nose hair in front of the mirror. He looked up at him and said, "What's wrong, kid?"
Lu Yuanqiu: "Take Uncle Bai home after get off work today. I'll take Bai Qingxia to the pedestrian street in the city center to celebrate the New Year and come back after midnight."
Lu Tian put the mirror down and reminded: "Okay, there are a lot of people over there, be careful."
"Ah."
Lu Yuanqiu glanced down and asked, "Where is the thing I asked you to buy?"
Lu Tian took it out and put it on the table. Lu Yuanqiu smacked his lips, quickly unzipped the backpack and put it in. He frowned and said, "Be careful, I'm giving her a surprise, don't let her see it in advance."
Lu Tian snorted disdainfully: "Isn't it normal to give these? How can this be considered a surprise?"
"What I'm giving you is a surprise." Lu Yuanqiu raised his chin and looked at him, his face a little smug.
Lu Tian glanced at his son's back as he walked away and made a "tsk" sound.
After staying in the supermarket until seven o'clock in the evening, Bai Qingxia insisted on going home, so Lu Yuanqiu accompanied her to Osmanthus Lane. The girl asked him to wait downstairs. After a while, she changed into a pink cotton coat and came down.
Last time, Lu Yuanqiu took her to buy two cotton coats, one white and one pink. Looking at her expression at the time, Lu Yuanqiu knew that she liked the pink one the best.
"Did you change your clothes as soon as you came back?" Hearing Lu Yuanqiu's doubt, Bai Qingxia did not answer, but clenched the stack of money in her pocket with her little hands.
She had never been to the pedestrian street in the city center, but she often heard people talking about this lively place. The two of them had not had dinner yet. It would probably cost money to get there, and Bai Qingxia didn't want to spend Lu Yuanqiu's money.
After hailing a taxi, Lu Yuanqiu stayed with her in the back seat. He asked others about the agreed location on his phone, but suddenly saw that Zheng Yifeng had sent him a message saying that Teacher Su had already booked a hotel.
Lu Yuanqiu said, "It seems that Teacher Su wants to treat all of us to dinner."
Bai Qingxia usually had no opinion at this time. She just nodded and waited quietly for Lu Yuanqiu to speak.
"Then let's eat. She is a teacher after all. She might think it's not appropriate to go out at night without treating her students to a meal." Lu Yuanqiu said as he typed on his phone for a while before putting it down.
Bai Qingxia said softly: "I think Teacher Su is more like a person of the same age."
Lu Yuanqiu nodded: "About the same, she seems to be four or five years older than us."
Arriving at the agreed restaurant, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia stood at the door, shivering in the cold wind. He looked at the girl and asked with a smile, "Why don't you knit a scarf for yourself?"
Bai Qingxia shrank her neck, her hair was blown by the wind and hit her fair face. She shook her head to try to shake off the hair covering her cheeks and responded, "I'm out of wool."
After saying that, she glanced at the scarf around Lu Yuanqiu's neck and felt quite satisfied.
After waiting for a few minutes, everyone gradually arrived. Lu Yuanqiu looked at Ruan Yueru, whose teeth were chattering in the cold wind, and whispered quietly in Bai Qingxia's ear: "I knew Cao Shuang would bring Ruan Yueru here."
Bai Qingxia shrank her neck, looked at them, smiled knowingly and said nothing.
Su Miaomiao counted the number of people, including her, and there were eight of them in total: "Everyone is here, shall we go in and eat?"
Lu Yuanqiu responded with a smile: "Okay!"
Just as she was about to go in, Su Miaomiao suddenly took a step back and glanced back at the school bags on the backs of Zheng Yifeng, Lu Yuanqiu, and Cao Shuang. She smiled and asked, "You three boys came here with school bags on your backs. Didn't you forget to review for the mock exam during the New Year's Eve?"
After hearing this, Ruan Yueru and Bai Qingxia seemed to have just realized it and turned to look at the scene behind Cao Shuang and Lu Yuanqiu.
Lu Yuanqiu lowered his head: "Ahem."
Cao Shuang lowered his head: "Ahem."
After coughing, the two suddenly turned their heads and looked at each other, looking at each other in confusion and surprise as if they realized something.
"Brother Qiu, you..."
"Shut up."
Zheng Yifeng also shook his shoulders unnaturally and responded: "...I forgot to put down my schoolbag when I got home."
Huh? Su Miaomiao stared at him blankly. She clearly remembered that the schoolbag Zheng Yifeng carried in the morning was not this color...
Zhong Jincheng and Gao Qiang's teeth were chattering in the cold wind. They urged, "Stop talking, go in quickly, you're almost frozen into popsicles!!!"
When the eight people entered the reserved box and were looking for a seat to sit down, the scene suddenly became interesting.
Zheng Yifeng and Zhong Jincheng were waiting for Su Miaomiao to sit down first, Cao Shuang was waiting for Ruan Yueru to sit down first, Bai Qingxia was waiting for Lu Yuanqiu to sit down first, and Gao Qiang was the only one who found a seat and sat down, then looked at the group of people standing in confusion.
