Chapter 460 Meng Jixi's Request for Help
"Pipa Ghost, thank you for your performance."
"I'm going back to school."
"Have a drink~"
"Goodbye, Pipa Ghost."
"Have a drink~"
Goodbye, Lord Xiao Xiao.
……
Xiao Xiao set out again, heading towards the school.
I unexpectedly heard a pipa performance, which brightened my already good mood even more.
If the weather is this good, good things will happen.
……
Xiao Xiao likes to occasionally meet the Pipa Ghost while walking in the city, listen to a pipa performance, and then say goodbye to each other.
This kind of encounter is very interesting.
……
"Di Di~"
Xiao Xiao paid no attention to the horn sound that was very close to him. He did not act like most people who would subconsciously look in the direction of the sound even if they knew there was a 90% chance that it had nothing to do with them.
Xiao Xiao continued to walk forward very naturally.
"Drip~"
The horn sounded louder and louder, "Master Xiao."
It sounded familiar, Xiao Xiao stopped and turned to look.
A black car slowly stopped beside him, and the person in the driver's seat was familiar.
"Meng Jixi."
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows in surprise, then greeted politely.
I got to know Meng Jixi because of the Chi brothers and sisters.
His relationship with Meng Jixi cannot be said to be too close.
Xiao Xiao was a little surprised that Meng Jixi would deliberately stop by his side and greet him.
After all, Meng Jixi doesn't look like such a friendly and considerate person.
It's not meant in a derogatory sense.
As for himself, if he were in someone else's shoes, he thought he would not go through so much trouble just to say hello to a casual acquaintance.
It's just a personality reason.
……
"Master Xiao, I just happened to have something to talk to you about."
Meng Jixi's words cleared up Xiao Xiao's doubts.
Xiao Xiao felt a little dazed, and also felt that it was as expected.
"what's up?"
A smile flashed across Xiao Xiao's eyes because he suddenly remembered that Meng Jixi had accidentally provoked the baby spoon and had fruits smashed on him for many days.
This kind of coincidence is rare.
……
"It's not convenient to talk here."
"Master Xiao, are you...returning to school now?"
Meng Jixi took a look at the suitcase Xiao Xiao was dragging and easily guessed Xiao Xiao's destination.
"Ah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"boarding."
Meng Jixi said straightforwardly, "Master Xiao, I'll take you back to school first."
"After you put your luggage away, we'll find a place to talk."
"it is good."
Xiao Xiao did not refuse, nor did he ask Meng Jixi what he was doing. Instead, he walked to the trunk of the car and put his luggage in it. Then he walked a few steps to the door and sat in the passenger seat.
Although his plan to walk back to school was disrupted, since he had already heard an unexpected pipa piece, he no longer felt dissatisfied or unhappy.
The spring was bright and beautiful, and the music of the Pipa Ghost was still lingering in his ears, so touching.
……
The car drove all the way to Yanda at lightning speed.
Xiao Xiao doesn't know much about cars. Except for some well-known brands, he doesn't recognize other cars and they don't recognize him either.
However, looking at the decoration inside the car, Xiao Xiao knew that this was definitely a luxury car.
……
Meng Jixi's driving skills were good, and he drove the car fast and steadily. In just an hour, they arrived at the gate of Yanda University.
Xiao Xiao looked at the time, it was a quarter past eleven.
……
Meng Jixi accompanied Xiao Xiao all the way to the bottom of the boys' dormitory.
After Xiao Xiao went upstairs to put down the luggage, Meng Jixi heard the sound of Xiao Xiao closing the car door, stepped on the accelerator, and drove out quickly again.
……
When Xiao Xiao returned to the dormitory, Zhang Bo and others were already there.
After all, Xiao Xiao is always the last one to arrive in this dormitory because he lives in the same city as Yan University and is the closest to the university.
Others always come early because they live far away.
……
Seeing Xiao Xiao put down his gift and was about to leave without packing, Zhang Bo and the others couldn't help but joke, "Third brother, we haven't seen you for a whole winter vacation. You are really getting busier and busier."
In response to this, Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly. The dormitory dinner that had been scheduled could only be postponed to the evening.
……
Although Meng Jixi didn't say what he wanted to see him about, Xiao Xiao knew what it was about without having to guess.
That being the case, it is always important to get down to business.
After all, he is also a law enforcer.
……
Meng Jixi didn't drive far, but found a restaurant near Yanda University.
The two found a private room.
After the waiter who took the order left, Meng Jixi spoke carefully, "Master Xiao."
After just three words, the box fell into silence again.
Seeing Meng Jixi's somewhat conflicted expression, Xiao Xiao did not urge him.
He picked up the cup, which contained boiled water that he had specially asked the waiter to replace.
After several unsatisfactory experiences, Xiao Xiao seldom drinks tea outside.
When it comes to tea, Xiao Xiao, who came from a teahouse, is always more demanding than the average person.
……
After Xiao Xiao drank a few sips of water, Meng Jixi finally relaxed his frown.
He has always been decisive and resolute. The reason he hesitated this time was that he always felt that the matter was a little mysterious. He also felt a little uncomfortable that he, who has always been a materialistic person, would come to Xiao Xiao for help.
The last incident was because the Chi brothers and sisters took the initiative to kill first and report later, and he was still a little confused and unwilling.
This time he took the initiative to ask for help.
The huge change in role made him a little uncomfortable for a while.
It's inevitable that I feel a little awkward emotionally.
……
However, Meng Jixi quickly adjusted his state.
His expression straightened up and he explained the whole story to Xiao Xiao in a clear and orderly manner.
……
One of Meng Jixi's roommates' family runs a winery.
The roommate has an older brother who is eight years older than him and already has a five-year-old son.
My roommate has a very good relationship with his brother and likes his nephew very much.
However, his nephew had some problems recently.
A question that is both strange and not strange.
……
Because his family runs a winery, my roommate has been practicing drinking since he was young, and his drinking capacity is quite good.
After all, the environment is there, and it is not an exaggeration to say that I was raised in a wine jar.
The same is true for my roommate's nephew.
Adults sometimes like to use chopsticks to dip a little wine and let children taste it to tease them. Seeing the children frowning because of the spicy taste of the wine will make a group of unscrupulous adults laugh.
This is normal. My roommate and his brother went through the same thing when they were young.
……
However, my roommate's nephew became a little abnormal.
No, it can’t be said to be abnormal.
But is it normal for such a young child to be addicted to alcohol?
Some people may say that this is caused by you adults. If you didn’t always feed the children alcohol, would the children be like this?
Such accusations seem reasonable.
However, my roommate and his brother who went through the same thing had a good alcohol tolerance but were never addicted to drinking.
ps: I wish you all a happy Year of the Dog and a prosperous New Year! (*︶*)
