Chapter 467 The leaves of ginkgo are falling
September 15, 2023, Friday, sunny, 19~29°C.
In the morning on the field ridge, surrounded by layers of terraced fields, the ears of rice hang low, and the air is filled with the aroma of moist earth and the faint smell of cooking smoke.
Qiuqiu ran forward along the road.
The sound of chickens crowing and dogs barking came from the distance, mixed with homely chatter in dialect.
"Sister, what are you cooking today?" "The corn buns are steaming!"
The familiar village is right in front of her, but she can't run away.
There was an eager expression on her face, and her sweat was dripping down.
The familiar scene soon became strange.
The originally golden rice fields gradually faded and turned gray, like the scenery in old photos that had lost its vitality.
At this moment, a hunchbacked figure walked slowly from the path in the field, with silver hair and wrinkles on his face.
Wearing a washed white blue shirt, he was holding a bamboo basket filled with freshly picked red peppers.
"Mother-in-law! Mother-in-law!"
Grandma did not look back, she just kept walking forward.
Qiuqiu wanted to shout loudly, but her voice was stuck in her throat, and she could only make hoarse moans.
"Start, stare, stare, stare - one by one" The footsteps were rapid, but she felt as if she was stepping on the clouds. The ground under her feet was getting softer and softer, and every step was like being stuck in a swamp and it was difficult to get out.
Looking down, the rice fields have turned into muddy puddles, reflecting the broken sky.
Suddenly, grandma stopped and turned around,
Her face was still kind, but with an indescribable tiredness and sadness.
"Qiuqiu," her voice was long and slow, with a strong Sichuan accent, "Why didn't you get the money back? I can't wait -"
Before she finished speaking, her body began to disintegrate and turned into countless tiny dusts, which were blown into the air by the wind.
Qiuqiu stretched out her hand to grab something, but only touched a piece of cold wetness.
Early in the morning, the sky is still dark.
In the dark bedroom.
Qiuqiu sat up suddenly, her hands covered with cold tears.
A low whimper sounded in the room.
She covered her cheeks with both hands, curled up and leaned against the bed, her body trembling slightly.
The sky outside the window gradually gets brighter.
Wiping away her tears, Qiuqiu lifted the quilt and stood up, but her legs were slightly weak from running in her dream just now.
Looking at the time, Qiuqiu put on a sweatshirt and sweatpants and walked out of the bedroom expressionlessly.
At this point, the senior sister hasn’t gotten up yet, and the living room is a little dark and scary.
Qiuqiu took a deep breath and opened the curtains on the balcony. The morning light immediately poured in, bringing with it a hint of the crisp breath unique to early autumn.
She sat quietly on the sofa, watching the sky outside the window getting brighter and brighter.
Then I put on my sneakers and took the elevator down to the first floor.
Put on your Bluetooth headphones and play music.
Su Yu’s singing began to wrap her up, and her mood gradually relaxed.
Qiuqiu put her hands into the pockets of her sweater, lowered her head, and walked slowly outside the community.
When we came to the street, the surrounding area instantly became lively.
Life goes on as usual with the passing traffic, passers-by doing morning exercises, and the aroma of fried dough sticks, but for her, it all seems to be separated by a transparent barrier.
I can never fit into it.
She is actually a very timid person.
Afraid of the dark, insects, thunder and lightning.
And often have nightmares.
This was one of the reasons why she mustered up the courage to take the initiative to find a roommate with her senior sister Gao Mengting.
Otherwise, given her personality, the best choice is to be alone, which can also prevent negative energy from affecting others.
She has no goals in life.
After listening to 5 songs, Qiuqiu bought some breakfast on the roadside and returned to the rental house.
Put breakfast on the table.
The door to the master bedroom just opened, and a yawning Gao Mengting came out.
"Hello, good morning, QQ." There was warmth and teasing in her voice.
Since the Tang and Song Dynasties began to call her QQ, Gao Mengting and other familiar colleagues began to call her this nickname.
Cheng Qiuqiu whispered: "Good morning, senior, breakfast is still hot, let's eat together."
"Thank you, wait for me." After Gao Mengting finished speaking, she got into the bathroom.
Go to the toilet and wash your hands.
Soon, the two sat at the dining table facing each other.
While eating fried dough sticks, Gao Mengting asked: "How much is it? I'll transfer it to you."
Cheng Qiuqiu shook his head quickly, his expression She said seriously: "No, you always drive me, just think of it as gas money. "Uh-ok, I won't follow you."
Knowing Cheng Qiuqiu's character, Gao Mengting said nothing more.
After breakfast, wash up and put on makeup.
The two of them carried their bags and went downstairs.
As soon as I arrived downstairs, the lights of the Mercedes-Benz E300L parked in front flashed and the vehicle was unlocked.
"Get in the car!" Gao Mengting snapped her fingers energetically and winked at the busty school girl.
Cheng Qiuqiu covered her mouth and chuckled, opened the car door and got in the passenger seat.
The car is filled with a faint smell of perfume, mixed with the smell of leather seats.
Gao Mengting started the car skillfully, slowly drove out of the community and merged into the early morning traffic.
Cheng Qiuqiu looked at the senior student talking enthusiastically about her driving experience under the sun, and the gloom in her heart gradually dissipated.
“Good morning.”
“Good morning.”
After saying hello to his colleagues, Cheng Qiuqiu sat down in his seat.
I packed up my things, turned on the computer, and started working.
This time she was not in a hurry to redesign the brand L0G0, standard colors, auxiliary graphics, etc.
Instead, read carefully about the IP "He Yiyi", including the brand values conveyed,
development history, important event brand positioning and target audience, etc.
The words of the art director of Nebula International Group were like a thorn piercing her heart.
She doesn’t want to disappoint Tang Song and her senior sister, and she also wants to prove her worth at work.
Heyi Live Broadcast Room currently accounts for 67% of Songmei Clothing sales, which is the absolute main force of the company.
It is broadcast an average of 5 days a week, 4 hours a day, and the number of viewers in a single game is stable at 700,000+.
The age group is concentrated between 25-35 years old, mainly working women and freelancers.
The average price per customer is between 200-500 yuan.
Have a certain spending power. While pursuing cost-effectiveness, they also pay attention to design and quality.
The more Cheng Qiuqiu looks at it, the more he feels the importance of his job.
The visual identity system she made is not only the LOGO and fonts, but also affects the subsequent clothing development and live broadcast room layout.
I just switched from Inspiration Design and was given a salary of more than 10,000 yuan.
Cheng Qiuqiu has an immature student mentality and can’t wait to prove himself. The L0G0 he made also used C4D to create animations, and the design also focused on showing off his skills.
Now that I think about it carefully, the art director of Nebula International Group is right.
She lacks experience and is really too eager to get things done.
Cheng Qiuqiu bit her lip, feeling a little scared and remorseful.
I looked at the time.
09:20.
At this time on Friday, He Yiyi happened to be live broadcasting, and Cheng Qiuqiu immediately stood up and walked towards the K3 live broadcast room.
She needs to have a deeper understanding of He Yiyi’s live broadcast style, communication method, and temperament in order to better design what she wants.
Come to the door of the live broadcast room and take a deep breath.
Cheng Qiuqiu knocked on the door gently, then pushed it open and walked in.
Immediately afterwards, He Yiyi's voice came, soft and magnetic, with a sense of narration in his tone, as if he was chatting with an old friend.
"This is a skirt that I particularly like recently. It is a "must-have for lazy people" style - it doesn't require much matching skills, and it looks great when you just put it on casually. ”
“Look, this A-line silhouette makes you look slimmer, and the fabric is a cotton and linen blend with a little stretch, so it’s very comfortable to wear.”
Cheng Qiuqiu listened to a few simple words, but felt that she was too conspicuous here, so she walked towards the corner.
Just after walking around a decoration, two familiar figures appeared in front of me.
Gao Mengting and Tang Song were sitting in the dressing area of the live broadcast room, watching He Yiyi's live broadcast and communicating in low voices.
The two of them were very close to each other.
One is handsome and tall, the other is soft and elegant. They look very right and eye-catching.
Cheng Qiuqiu’s heart skipped a beat and he suppressed his complicated emotions.
Gao Mengting had a gentle smile on her face and waved to her, beckoning her to come over.
"Mr. Tang, Mr. Gao." Cheng Qiuqiu stood next to Gao Mengting and whispered: "I came to watch Sister Yiyi's live broadcast to find some inspiration for the design."
Gao Meng Ting patted her arm and said affectionately: "Come on!"
"QQ, sit here, I just have something to deal with." Tang Song stood up and motioned for her to come over.
Cheng Qiuqiu glanced at Tang Song, nodded slightly, and sat down on the office chair that carried his breath and residual warmth,
His lips were pursed tightly.
Tang Song’s gaze calmly looked at the head of the aloof designer [Under cultivation -15%—·] (not sprouted)
Good guy! Didn't see it all night, jumped directly to 15%?
How dark this heart is!
At this rate, it is estimated that Cheng Qiuqiu’s [Dream Flower Seed] will sprout in about a week, which also means that the connection between the two will be officially established.
What was most curious about the Tang and Song dynasties was how this connection would be reflected.
Will it pass the system mission like [Whispers of Humanity]?
This kind of special props are rare and valuable.
A little snow gave him a lot of charm.
Speaking of which, I have had the other [Whisper of Humanity] for a long time, but it has never been triggered, which is a bit hard to resist.
At this moment, Gao Mengting suddenly coughed lightly and said angrily: "Mr. Tang, it's working time now. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to stare at a female employee like this?"
Tang Song quickly came back to his senses, only to find that Cheng Qiuqiu's face was red, and she lowered her head and did not dare to look at him.
Tang Song smiled and looked at his partners, "Then take a closer look at the beautiful Mr. Gao."
Since Gao Mengting was also going to appear in the live broadcast today, she specially wore a black and white plaid tube top dress, which was simple yet elegant, and her body was full of soft and fashionable atmosphere.
Sitting next to Qiuqiu, the "cold lady", it formed an excellent contrast.
It made Tang and Song’s heart beat faster.
I couldn’t help but step forward and rub my partner’s head, messing up her neat hair.
Gao Mengting stretched out her hand to hit him and made a "I want you to look good" expression towards him.
The two joked in a low voice for a few times.
The surrounding staff looked away and pretended to be working seriously.
Cheng Qiuqiu’s eyes flashed with a hint of envy and loneliness.
【Under cultivation-·16%--】(not sprouted)
After discovering this strange reaction, a strange look flashed in Tang Song's eyes.
But this is a live broadcast room after all, so he did not continue to play around with Gao Mengting, said goodbye and turned around to leave.
Return to the president's office, turn on the computer, put on headphones, and enter the "Qing Ning Technology Live Room".
On September 15, 2023, Lime Technology officially released Lime 3.0.
According to Liu Qingning, this is destined to be a conference that changes the world’s AI landscape and will also have a drastic impact on society.
Although the current Green Lemon Technology is already well-known in fixed circles, there is still a gap between it and the top manufacturers.
And today’s press conference will make the name of this company truly sensational on the entire domestic and foreign Internet.
The Tang and Song Dynasties were full of great expectations for this.
This should be the first time he has witnessed the take-off of his game company.
“Ding dong—” a WeChat notification sounded in the earphones.
Two new messages popped up on the computer screen.
【Shen Yuyan: Photo.jpg】
【Shen Yuyan: "Hey, let me share a little bit~ I have just been selected into the candidate list of the "Yanzhao Youth Entrepreneurship Support Program"! This is a photo taken yesterday at Yancheng TV Station. What do you think? I hope I can still feel a little bit like the school beauty back then, haha. ]
Tang Song raised his eyebrows and clicked on the photo to view it.
This is an artistic photo.
Fashionable and sexy dark gray suspender dress, long black and shiny hair, and exquisite makeup.
It sets off her gentleness and atmosphere, which is very beautiful.
From her body, you can still see the shadow of that exquisite college beauty, but she is more mature and sexy.
Tang Song, who guessed the school belle’s little thoughts, raised the corners of his mouth, and typed a reply: "I feel even more beautiful than before" Buzzing buzzing [Shen Yuyan: "(# covering his mouth and laughing) Mr. Tang is really good at talking, I’m embarrassed~. By the way, a friendly reminder, Qing Ning Technology’s press conference is about to start. I heard that there is a lot of noise this time, so you can pay attention when you have time."]
Youjie Housekeeping, General Manager's Office.
Shen Yuyan looked at Tang Song's reply, with a complicated light shining in his eyes.
When Xu Qing was not with him before, she did not have such a big psychological burden. At that time, she just hesitated and hesitated.
But now Xu Qing has established a relationship with him and even met his parents.
It would be really shameful for her to hook up with her best friend's boyfriend again.
Even though I knew there were other women around him, I still felt very tormented by the guilt in my heart.
To her, Xu Qing is a relative.
She and Xu Qing have known each other since junior high school. They watched anime together, studied together, and were admitted to the same high school and university for more than ten years and have been almost inseparable.
Even if she has a boyfriend in the future, it will not be more important than Xu Qing.
What she fears most is that there will be a rift in her relationship with Xu Qing in the future because of the Tang and Song Dynasties.
After all, she has seen many cases of people turning against each other because of love.
Last night, I said it under the influence of alcohol, which was actually a test.
Tang and Song Dynasty shocked her so much that she really couldn’t control it.
Every night lately, as soon as I close my eyes, I see him.
Shen Yuyan sighed, rubbed his brow, and turned his attention to the monitor in front of him, waiting for the press conference to begin.
She specifically asked Xu Qing to invite Tang Song to Beicheng Garden tonight. In fact, she wanted to take advantage of the Qing Ning Technology Conference to have a good chat with him.
Now that Youjie Housekeeping has secured a major client, Xucheng Property, the second tranche of financing will be received smoothly, and she will soon enter the "Yanzhao Youth Entrepreneurship Support Program."
These can prove her excellence.
Shen Yuyan is a proud person, and she hopes to be appreciated by Tang and Song Dynasties.
Instead of competing with your girlfriends as a loser.
“Ding dong——” WeChat prompt rang.
Shen Yuyan picked up her phone and looked at it. Someone from her high school classmates was @her.
Click to open the group chat of [Class 2, No. 1 Middle School].
【Cheng Ziwei: "@深宇yan@白梦林-", you guys haven't made a splash for a long time, come and watch Yingying's highlight moments, he's so handsome. ]
[Cheng Ziwei: video.video]
Shen Yuyan frowned slightly and clicked on the video to view.
This is an interview video from the Guangdong provincial media. The protagonist is Ji Yingying, the head of investor relations of Zhifang Medical.
The video was still playing, but Shen Yuyan's face became increasingly ugly.
Since junior high school, she has always been the most beautiful one due to her appearance, IQ and EQ.
There were other very outstanding female classmates in high school, but they were all suppressed by her.
Such as Ji Yingying and Bai Menglin.
Because they are the top students in a key high school, they all study very well.
Bai Menglin University is 211. She was admitted to the Chinese University of Hong Kong as a graduate student and is currently working in a financial company in Central.
Shen Yuyan followed the other party’s Xiaohongshu account and had a great time.
Ji Yingying went directly to a university in the United States. She had previously worked as a simultaneous interpreter in New York, but later she heard that she had returned to work in China.
But because Ji Yingying was too busy at work and never showed up in the group, no one knew.
Unexpectedly, she was suddenly interviewed by a TV station. She also stated the development of her work in the past two to three years in the video.
Because of his simultaneous interpretation work, he was spotted by the chairman of "Zhifang Medical", a domestic manufacturer of medical devices, and became his assistant, responsible for connecting with foreign customers.
At the beginning of this year, Zhifang Medical was listed on the A-share market, with a market value of nearly 10 billion.
Because of her outstanding performance, Ji Yingying became the head of the company’s investor relations department. She is a 26-year-old female executive of a listed company with an annual salary of one million.
Her head is naturally not small, and coupled with her good appearance, she is obviously defined as a promotional point for Zifang Medical.
This interview is also of an advertising nature.
In the high school classmate group, everyone’s discussion was more intense than ever.
["I just watched the original video on Douyin, and the likes have exceeded 100,000. Yingying is so awesome, she is going to become a celebrity!"]
["Oh my God, I just found out that Yingying is in Zhifang Medical. I bought its stocks. It's so cool!"]
Watching the praise from his classmates, Shen Yuyan's breathing gradually became faster and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Although her relationship with Ji Yingying, Bai Menglin and others is okay, there is comparison and competition between them.
Now these people are gradually coming in front of her.
Turning off the group chat, Shen Yuyan closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
gritted his teeth and returned his attention to the live broadcast.
10 o’clock in the morning.
The Green Lemon Technology Conference officially begins.
The host is an internationally renowned science and technology reporter (bilingual host).
The opening video is very gorgeous, from the Big Bang to the AI revolution, and finally settled on the LOGO of Qinglin Technology
.
After a brief introduction, Qing Ning Technology CEO Ye Hanwen appeared on the stage.
Shen Yuyan sat up straight and listened carefully, holding a notepad in hand.
These are the topics to be discussed with Tang and Song Dynasty in the evening, and they must be memorized.
As the live broadcast continued, the expression on her face became more and more shocked.

All performances of Lime 3.0 exceed GPT4 released in March this year.
And it brings a richer ecology and applications.
More importantly, its training cost is very low and the service fee is much lower than openAl.
This is an epoch-making press conference, especially for China, it is definitely a big earthquake.
Sure enough, as the press conference progressed.
Messages popped up one after another on Shen Yuyan’s mobile phone.
This press conference is being spread at an alarming rate through promotions from major apps, various investment groups, entrepreneurial groups, and social groups.
Looking at the heated discussion in the group chat, Shen Yuyan, as an entrepreneur, was filled with unlimited expectations and ambitions.
Most of the next day.
She continues to be in a state of excitement, learning more about Lime 3.0 from various channels.
Looking forward to communicating with Tang and Song in the evening.
6:40 pm.
The Bentley Continental was parked in the above-ground parking lot outside Beicheng Garden.
Tang Song got out of the car and walked forward along the sidewalk for a while.
Just as he was approaching the pillars of the gate, his eyes quickly caught a figure peeping out his head.
Tang Song raised the corner of his mouth slightly, pretended not to see it, and continued walking forward.
When the distance was close enough, he suddenly jumped half a step forward, and deliberately shouted in a low and exaggerated voice: "Ah!"
Xu Qing, who was hiding behind the pillar, was caught off guard, trembled with fright, let out a piercing scream, and squatted down with his head in his hands.
"You-you scared me to death!" She raised her head and glared at Tang Song with wide eyes.
Tang Song couldn't help but laugh "haha", "You idiot, you can't even hide, and you keep peeking at me."
"You are the idiot! Idiot Tang Song! Idiot Tang Song!"
Then Xu Qing shouted in anger.
The two of them came to Building 4, laughing and joking, and took the elevator directly to the 12th floor.
Open the door.
"Yanyan, I'm back!" Xu Qing shouted loudly and handed over the men's slippers prepared for Tang and Song.
Change your shoes and walk into the living room.
Tang Song saw school beauty Shen sitting on the sofa at a glance.
A white bottoming shirt paired with black tights is simple yet elegant, perfectly outlining her exquisite figure.
She has long black and smooth hair draped over her shoulders, and there is a bit of freshness and laziness between her eyebrows.
"Good evening, Tang Song." Shen Yuyan stood up and looked at him with crooked eyebrows. Her voice was gentle and clear, "Because Qingqing and I are busy today, I packed all the meals from the restaurant. I hope you don't mind it."
Xu Qing pouted and said: "Yanyan, please ignore him, he was scaring me just now!"
Then, Xu Qing complained to her best friend about what had just happened.
Shen Yuyan blinked at Tang Song, then suddenly took a half step forward and pinched his face gently, "Huh, let you bully our family Qingqing."
The delicate and warm fingers carried a faint fragrance and a hint of warmth.
It gently touched the heartstrings of Tang and Song Dynasties.
Xu Qing obviously did not see the little trick between the two, but instead hugged her best friend's arm proudly,
She said affectionately: "Words are the best, mua~"
Tang Song raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his hands, one on the left and the other on the right, and pinched the faces of the two best friends.
Two different touches bring completely different experiences, which is very exciting.
Xu Qing pretended to be fierce and said: "This is our territory, be careful we beat you!"
Tang Song smiled and said: "Okay, you two come up together and see who lies down first."
"Yanyan, come up quickly!"
Shen Yuyan had an unnatural expression on her face and flipped up her long hair, "Sit down quickly, the dishes are getting cold."
The dinner was very sumptuous.
Braised pork ribs, garlic broccoli, steamed sea bass, braised meat platter·
After the three of them sat down, with Xu Qing’s laughter, the atmosphere gradually relaxed.
Shen Yuyan did not directly talk to Tang Song about Qing Ning Technology’s press conference, but took the initiative to talk about college life.
Talking about the memories and friends the three of them share.
When the conversation was happy, I also opened the photo album on my mobile phone and found some photos I had taken before.
It should be considered her most glorious moment when she was in college.
President of the Student Union of the School of Economics and Management, a college beauty, and participates in various performances and competitions.
In fact, the short video platform exploded in popularity later.
She has been deliberately marketing her name as "Yancheng School Beauty" in order to manage her own account.
The results are also very significant.
When she graduated in 2020, her personal account had more than 600,000 fans.
When I first chose to work in a top 500 foreign company as HR, I also wanted to accumulate network resources and find suitable entrepreneurial opportunities.
Zhang Tianqi also took a fancy to her, so he finally chose to start Youjie Housekeeping with her.
She also contributed her own account and used non-monetary assets as investment, which became an important promotion and customer acquisition channel for Youjie Housekeeping.
Otherwise, given her original situation, she would not have the money to hold 49% of the shares.
Therefore, in terms of starting a business, she did not take advantage of Zhang Tianqi. At most, it was mutual benefit.
The night outside the window is getting darker, and the lights inside the house are warm and soft.
It’s past 8 o’clock in the evening, and dinner is over.
Xu Qing and Shen Yuyan got into the kitchen together and began to put away the tableware and prepare the fruit plate.
Tang Song was sitting on the sofa, watching the variety show on TV with relish.
A light aroma pours into the nose, mixed with the fragrance of fruits.
Shen Yuyan placed an exquisite fruit platter in front of him and handed over a toothpick.
"Thank you." Tang Song reached out to take the toothpick and couldn't help but look at her one more time.
I have to say, this college beauty is really something.
The cup size looks almost D, comparable to Qiuqiu.
Noticing Tang Song’s gaze, Shen Yuyan turned slightly, picked up a grape with his fingers and put it to Tang Song’s mouth,
“This is super sweet, try it.”
Tang Song gently opened his mouth.
The grape rolled into your mouth, bit it open gently, and the sweet juice flowed between your lips and teeth.
"It's really delicious." Tang Song's tone was calm and gentle.
Shen Yuyan bit her lip, her eyes flickered slightly, and then she showed a bright smile: "Did you watch today's Qing Ning Technology Conference?"
"Well, of course, the whole Internet is discussing it now."
Shen Yuyan moved in the direction of Tang and Song Dynasties, leaned forward, and spoke in a brisk and confident tone: "The release of Lime 3.0 is equivalent to bringing multiple opportunities for entrepreneurs such as technology inclusiveness, cost reduction, and business model innovation. Even the domestic industry can be connected to it, which will greatly save costs."
Because she had prepared her words in advance, her voice was clear, smooth, and contagious.
At this time.
「叮铃铃一一」手机铃声骤然响起,打断了她的话。
Tang Song took out his cell phone and took a look, with a faint smile on his face, "I'm going to answer the phone."
After saying that, he got up and walked directly to the balcony.
Standing on the balcony, Tang Song pressed the answer button, "Hello? Qing Ning."
A familiar voice came from the receiver, with a bit of exhaustion and tenderness: "Xiao Song, what are you doing now?" , I’ve had a hard day today.”
“I’m finally done here. When I was just packing up my things, I remembered when I went to Yancheng to see you in college.
Do you still remember the ginkgo leaf bookmark you made for me?”
“Of course you do.” A look of memory flashed in Tang Song’s eyes.
On the Mid-Autumn Festival of 2016, around this time, Bai Yueguang suddenly ran from the imperial capital to Yancheng to visit him.
At that time, I picked up a particularly beautiful silver leaf on a road outside Yancheng University of Science and Technology. I later made it into a bookmark and gave it to Liu Qingning.
"I can't find that bookmark. I don't know when I lost it." Liu Qingning's voice was a little aggrieved,
As if she was about to cry.
Tang Song quickly comforted: "It doesn't matter, I will make another one for you."
"This is what you said!" Liu Qingning's tone suddenly became lively, and she urged like a child, "I want you to go to the street of the University of Science and Technology now, find me the most beautiful ginkgo leaf, and take a photo for me to see!"
“Um—now?”
“Now! I suddenly miss it very much. If I can’t see it, I will definitely lose sleep at night.” Liu Qingning’s tone was firm and willful.
Tang Song sighed, still with a doting smile on his lips: "Okay, I'll go over there and send you photos later."
Beicheng Garden is in Yuhua District, only about 3 kilometers away from the University of Science and Technology, which is not far.
"Yeah, thank you, Xiao Song, for your hard work."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Song turned around and returned to the living room.
Shen Yuyan said with a smile: "Finished? Let's continue."
Tang Song said "hmm" and said, "I I have to go out for something, let’s talk about it when we come back.”
The smile on Shen Yuyan’s face froze slightly, but soon returned to normal, with just a trace of imperceptible loss in his eyes. "Okay, you go ahead."
Tang Song put on his coat and shouted to Xu Qing who was working in the kitchen: "Qingqing, I'll leave for a while and come back later."
Wearing rubber gloves, Xu Qing waved her hand while washing the dishes: "I know, drive carefully on the road."
"Bye." Tang Song said goodbye to Shen Yuyan again, turned and walked out.
Watching his back disappear at the door, the smile on Shen Yuyan's face gradually faded, replaced by a complex emotion.
I suddenly had a bad feeling in my heart.
The night is as dark as ink, the cold moon hangs high, and the stars are dotted.
The Bentley Continental in glacier white glows with a faint silver glow under the street lights, like a wisp of flowing moonlight, shuttling through the quiet streets of Yancheng.
The wheels rolling over the road made a slight rustling sound, blending in with the coolness of the night.
About ten minutes later, Yancheng University of Science and Technology gradually came into view.
After turning two corners, Tang Song stopped the car at a street intersection and looked forward.
The familiar streets still maintain their former appearance, with the silver trees on both sides swaying gently in the breeze.
Some men and women who looked like students walked past him holding hands, talking and laughing.
The air is filled with the unique smell of early autumn, mixed with the fragrance of soil and fallen leaves.
Tang and Song’s thoughts seemed to have returned to the scene of walking here with Liu Qingning.
After locking the car door, Tang Song stepped into the street.
With his eyes lowered, he carefully looked at the ginkgo leaves at his feet.
Looking for a suitable target.
took a few steps forward.
“Da, da da——”
The sound of brisk footsteps suddenly came from the front.
In the peripheral vision of Tang Song, a figure was slowly walking out from behind the tree.
She tilted her head slightly, with a slight smile on her lips, and her eyes fell directly on him.
Tang Song’s footsteps suddenly stopped, he raised his head and looked at the girl in front of him, frozen in place.
The light shone on her body, reflecting a mottled halo, blurring the surrounding scenery and blurring his thoughts.
The golden ginkgo leaves fell in the wind and hovered around her.
One piece happened to fall on her breasts.
Seeing the dull look of Tang and Song Dynasties.
Liu Qingning picked it up casually and threw it towards Tang Song, "Hey, what are you doing? You idiot."
