Chapter 51

After leaving the scene with Yan Jialin, it was already off-duty time when we arrived at the company. Xu Xingxing returned to the company to get something, and then took a taxi to Heping Street. Regarding the matter of going to Licheng this weekend, Xu Xingxing has not discussed with Du Yizhe and Huangfu Yiduo.

Heping Street in the afternoon is always busy and crowded, and on this long street with endless crowds, Huangfu Yiduo is always the most eye-catching one.

The weather is getting warmer, and Huangfu Yiduo is wearing brighter clothes. A bright red court retro dress with a delicate bow tied at the waist and a large white lace neckline. To match the skirt, she also wore a small red top hat. She was wearing white stockings and a pair of red velvet high heels, looking like a little medieval princess.

A Jin, who was beside her, was wearing a red knight's uniform and was squatting beside her to guard her writing. When Xu Xingxing approached, Ajin turned his head, his hair was golden in the sun, got up and ran towards Xu Xingxing.

As soon as it ran, Huangfu Yiduo noticed it, and after looking up at Xu Xingxing, Huangfu Yiduo's eyes lit up and ran over with Ah Jin.

"Sister!" Huangfu Yiduo ran to give Xu Xingxing a bear hug.

Xu Xingxing reached out and touched her head, then said with a smile, "You ran over and Ajin stopped."

"Hee hee." Huangfu Yiduo waved at A Jin. After A Jin came over, she patted A Jin's head with a smile and said, "Azhe trained, I want to be the first to hug him."

Xu Xingxing laughed and touched Ajin's head. Ajin stuck out his tongue stupidly, and the corners of his eyes were bent.

Dogs and cats are still different. If this is Mimi, if Huaijing hugs him before him, he will probably scratch him.

Thinking of Huaijing, Xu Xingxing stopped smiling, and Huangfu Yiduo took Ajin to Wuyin.

"Li Cheng?" After Xu Xingxing explained his intention, Huangfu Yiduo, who was sitting on the side, asked.

There are only the three of them in the store now, Xu Xingxing and Huangfu Yiduo are sitting on the high stools, while Du Yizhe is standing at the counter, making milk tea for Xu Xingkong.

"Well." Xu Xingxing nodded and explained: "It was organized by Mr. Bai Zhu from Weiquan Art Studio, and I also want to go there together. So I want to bring the two of you over to help, and by the way, you can change the environment and change Feeling."

"Mr. Bai Zhu? Is it like the one from Bai Yuanchong?" Huangfu Yiduo's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise, "You two are so familiar now?"

"No." Xu Xingxing smiled, afraid of her misunderstanding, and explained: "He is the son of my university teacher. My friend and I only found out after we met when we went to Qingping Temple."

"Oh." Huangfu Yiduo held his cheeks and said with a smile, "That's quite a fate."

Fate is indeed a bit, but not too deep.

Du Yizhe made the milk tea, inserted the straw, and passed it to Xu Xingkong. When he handed it over, he reached out to Huangfu Yiduo to tidy up the top hat on his head, and asked, "Why are you going to Licheng to help?"

After drinking a sip of milk tea, the warm liquid entered her abdomen along the throat. Xu Xingxing couldn't taste the sweetness. She pursed her lips and said, "Last week, Mr. Bai Zhu held an art exhibition about sexual abuse. Left-behind children. I went to Licheng this time to see those children."

As soon as her words came out, Du Yizhe and Huangfu Yiduo looked at each other and fell silent. In the small milk tea shop, there was a hint of heaviness.

"We're going." Huangfu Yiduo's eyes drooped down, looked at Du Yizhe, and said, "Azhe, let's go."

"Go." Du Yizhe touched her face and comforted: "Let's help."

Seeing that the two agreed, Xu Xingxing also smiled and said, "That's it."

The time to go to Licheng was set on Saturday, because Licheng was not far away, so it was the same day. On Friday night, Huangfu Yiduo accompanied Xu Xingxing to buy some things for the children.

Early on Sunday morning, Xu Xingxing took a taxi to Jia Ting Plaza. When arrived at the underground parking lot, found Bai Zhu's Mercedes-Benz.

Before Xu Xingxing arrived, Bai Zhu had already arrived. Besides him, there were two other women. One was short, with glasses and looked to be in his 40s. The other is a little fat, with small eyes and freckles on his face, looking around 30 years old.

When Xu Xingxing got off the elevator, Bai Zhu had already looked over. He smiled at her and came over to pick up what was in her hand. Xu Xingxing didn't give it to him, just smiled and said, "It's not heavy."

Bai Zhu didn't insist either. He walked to the car and introduced the two women to Xu Xingxing.

"This is Professor Ni Jia, and this is Feng Shiting, a doctoral student under her command. The children of Baiyan Village are both of them doing psychological counseling."

Bai Zhu regularly goes to Baiyan Village every month, first to visit the children, and second to bring a psychiatrist to give psychological counseling to the children.

This kind of psychological counseling is of a public welfare nature. At that time, Bai Zhu entrusted Yang Wenyu to find them. Ni Jia and Feng Shiting are both from Xia Da.

"Hello, my name is Xu Xingxing." Xu Xingxing reached out to shake hands with them, and he was full of admiration for the two of them.

Ni Jia is a professor and looks unsmiling, with a serious look on his face. Feng Shiting is much more cheerful, not so much cheerful as she is talkative.

While they were greeting each other, Du Yizhe and Huangfu Yiduo arrived. Afraid of the bumps back and forth, they didn't bring Ah Jin. As soon as the young couple arrived, a few people got into the car and prepared to leave.

Du Yizhe and Huangfu Yiduo were sitting in the back. When Feng Shiting walked into the car, Xu Xingxing also got into the car with her. In the end, Ni Jia sat in the passenger seat.

After getting in the car, Feng Shiting didn't stop talking. The young couple at the back began to say a few words, but because they got up too early, they quickly sat in the back and fell asleep.

So, the object of Feng Shiting's chat became Xu Xingxing. And it was when the two were chatting that Feng Shiting discovered that the two were of the same level.

Although they are in different departments at the same level, they have spent four years in Xia University together, and they will always have common memories.

After reminiscing about the university time with Xu Xingxing for a while, Feng Shiting suddenly asked Xu Xingxing.

"Do you remember when a girl pulled down a banner in the boys' dormitory to confess to her during the final exam of the last semester of her sophomore year?"

What Feng Shiting said was ranked in the top three in Xu Xingxing's college memories.

This incident was specifically caused by a girl who took a fancy to the Department of Broadcasting Department at that time, and then pulled up a banner that night and confessed to it under the boys' dormitory building, which caused a sensation in the entire school and onlookers.

At that time, Xu Xingxing just came back from self-study next night, and saw this scene when passing by the boys' dormitory. But there were too many people watching the excitement at that time, and Xu Xingxing and Chen Wanwan stood at the back and couldn't see the specific situation inside.

Later, Chen Wanwan's hungry stomach growled and said that she could go to the post bar tomorrow to see the photos and results, so she took her to the south gate of the school to buy hot and sour noodles.

The next day, the school post bar exploded, and everyone was talking about it.

The result of the girl's confession was a failure, and there were many followers of the grass, and the post said it was ugly. What about a girl who is short, fat, and freckled, like a lazy toad who wants to eat swan meat.

Thinking of this, Xu Xingxing looked up at the freckles on Feng Shiting's face, widened his eyes in surprise, and asked, "Could it be..."

"It's me!" Feng Shiting said cheerfully and proudly.

Feng Shiting didn't feel ashamed because she was rejected, and she didn't feel embarrassed because this incident became a topic of discussion, but she was a little proud.

Xu Xingxing smiled and said, "You really have courage."

"Hi." Feng Shiting smiled and said, "It's not courage, I'm just confident. Although I'm average, my soul is interesting."

Hearing what Feng Shiting said, Xu Xingxing liked this girl more and more, and always felt that being with her would be infected by her happiness and confidence. And Ni Jia chose her as her companion, because she liked her.

While the two of them were chatting, Bai Zhu, who was driving in front, also smiled and seemed to be listening.

"Actually, I've been chatting with you for a while, and I feel that you have an evasive personality." Feng Shiting looked at Xu Xingxing and said.

"What?" Xu Xingxing was taken aback.

"Don't be nervous." Feng Shiting said happily, "Everyone has some psychological problems to some extent. Didn't someone say that the world is a mental hospital."

Having said that, Feng Shiting continued.

"Escape personality is generally speaking to escape, not to pursue. The way you express here is what you like, or who you are, you are not very encouraging to strive for it, but instead list a series of rules and regulations to let yourself give up. You This should be caused by the growing environment."

When Feng Shiting said this, Xu Xingxing gradually slowed down. In fact, after careful analysis, what she said makes sense.

Because she is a girl, Xu Xingxing was not favored at Xu's house. When she was at her grandmother's house, she never got what she wanted.

Later, because the father died young, there was a younger brother below, and the mother raised them very hard. There are many things she does like, but she never wants. At first she felt that she shouldn't want it. Second, she felt that she could not get it if she wanted it.

But in fact, maybe she can get it by fighting for it.

But, if you fight for it, can you really get it?

"Then can this be treated through psychological counseling?" Bai Zhu suddenly said in front of him.

"Ah?" Feng Shiting looked up at him and said, "Yes. But Xingxing can adjust by herself. She needs to break through herself."

The car suddenly fell silent, Xu Xingxing smiled and said, "Thank you, I will try my best."

Their final destination is Baiyan Village in Licheng. Baiyan Village is between two mountains. There is only a road that is wide for one person, and cars cannot enter.

Several people got out of the car. It has been raining in Licheng these days, the ground is very muddy, and the road is not easy to walk. Xu Xingxing was holding something, and his steps were a little unsteady.

Several times, Bai Zhu reached out to help her, and he only helped her when she was about to fall. Xu Xingxing knew that she was cold-blooded, hypocritical and deliberate, but it was better than letting Bai Zhu think she was responding to his liking.

Baiyan Village is an ancient and closed village. It is located between two mountains, with only a small group of relatively dense buildings.

The transportation here is inconvenient, and it is not easy to develop. Most of the young laborers in the village go out to work, so there are many left-behind children and left-behind elderly people.

Although it is a backward village, there is still a gap between the rich and the poor, which can be seen from the houses where each family lives.

Some families are made of blue bricks and red tiles, while others are just made of stones and covered with thatched huts. Xu Xingxing followed behind Bai Zhu, looked at the dilapidated yard in front, turned his head and saw a pond that was already full of water opposite the yard.

This season, there are no children playing in the pond, but an old man is drinking a cow with a ox.

By the pond, the sturdy willow tree has already sprouted new shoots, and a greenery can be seen clearly on the willow branches.

Feng Shiting was leading the way. As soon as the half-person-height wooden door beside the low wall was opened, Feng Shiting laughed and called out.

"Yan An."

Xu Xingxing stood in the yard holding the pink naughty leopard, and when the door opened in the low hut, a little girl with double ponytails came out.

When the little girl heard Feng Shiting's voice, her eyes flashed with surprise. But when she was about to run over, she saw Xu Xingxing who was following Feng Shiting, and she stood by the door immediately, with a flash of vigilance in her eyes.

Yan'an's name is nice, and she's pretty. Xu Xingxing only saw her back, but this was the first time she had seen her.

With big eyes and double eyelids, a small nose, moist lips, bright eyes and white teeth, she looks like a little man walking out of a painting of misty rain.

Xu Xingxing could see the vigilance and fear in her eyes, and her heart ached, she squatted aside, handed over the naughty leopard in her hand, smiled softly, and said, "Hello, my name is Xu Xingxing. I want to be with you. You are a friend, this is my gift to you."

Yan An looked at her, her eyes flashed slightly, and she looked up at Bai Zhu who was standing beside Xu Xingxing. Bai Zhu received her request for help, smiled and nodded.

With Bai Zhu's confirmation, Yan An began to walk this way. She was a little hesitant to go, and she still didn't trust Xu Xingkong.

She walked to Xu Xingxing, reached out and took the naughty leopard in her hand, looked down at the toy, and said thank you in a low voice.

The smile on Xu Xingxing's face deepened. She controlled herself not to touch Yan'an, but just tilted her head and replied with a smile.

"You're welcome."

The hurt he has suffered is too deep, and Yan An is the one who is most resistant to contact with strangers among all the children. Xu Xingxing didn't want to be too eager, so as not to cause her deeper resistance.

While a few people were chatting with Yan'an's grandma in the house, Yan'an went to the wall again with the pink naughty leopard. Xu Xingxing didn't dare to go over rashly, but Bai Zhu tapped her on the shoulder and motioned her to go out together.

Xu Xingxing couldn't make up her mind about how to get along with Yan'an, and even when she saw her turning her head from the wall, she was still a little embarrassed.

Perhaps because Bai Zhu was by his side, Yan An did not run away, Xu Xingxing followed Bai Zhu to Yan An's side.

Bai Zhu looked at Yan An holding the naughty leopard and said with a smile, "Who gave this puppet to Yan An?"

Yan An and Bai Zhu were acquaintances. She glanced at him, then at Xu Xingxing next to her, and said, "Auntie."

Bai Zhu looked over, Xu Xingxing understood and asked, "Do you like it?"

Looking down at the leopard, Yan An nodded, his eyes were clear.

"I like it, pink looks good."

Her throat was astringent, Xu Xingxing glanced at the blue-gray long trousers that Yanan was wearing, her brows softened, and she smiled and said, "Yes, pink is very beautiful, auntie will bring pink clothes for Yanan next time. ."

Yan An's eyes lifted, her little hand held the naughty leopard's paw, her eyes jumped for a second, and she pursed her lips and said, "Grandma said pink is not good-looking."

"Grandma is getting old." Xu Xingxing said, "I don't understand the trend of our young people."

Hearing Xu Xingxing's words, Yan An raised his head to look at Xu Xingxing, and the corners of his lips pursed into a smile.

Bai Zhu's plan was to go back and forth on the same day, but the plan was not as fast as changing. In the afternoon, it rained in Li Cheng.

By the time they finished counseling, it was already dark. There is only one small road leading to the outside of Baiyan Village, because the rain this afternoon has become muddy, making it very difficult to walk. Going out hastily may be dangerous. In the end, the people in the village persuaded Bai Zhu to stay tonight and leave until dawn tomorrow. It was not the first time for Bai Zhu to stay here, and he stayed after asking Xu Xingxing about their wishes.

The village head of Baiyan Village is at the head of the village, and he is considered to be a relatively wealthy family in the village. There are two guest rooms in his house. Bai Zhu has lived there before, and it is quite comfortable. Bai Zhu let the four women live in the village chief's house, while he and Du Yizhe went to the house next door to temporarily stay.

The room where Xu Xingxing and Huangfu Yiduo lived was the main guest room. In addition to a bed, there was also a tall wooden cabinet. The cabinet was obviously eliminated by the village chief's house, and it was a bit old. On this cabinet, there is also a black and white TV that was also eliminated.

Huangfu Yiduo was timid and turned on the TV when he entered the door. The TV was thorny, and could only receive one station, and now it was showing the evening news.

After Xu Xingxing washed his feet, he said to Huangfu Yiduo, "Wait here, I'll fetch you water."

Huangfu Yiduo's expression tightened, grabbed Xu Xingxing and took the pot and said, "I'll fight by myself, will you stay with me?"

Seeing how scared the little girl looked, Xu Xingxing felt very cute, rubbed her hair, and said with a smile, "Okay."

Accompanying Huangfu Yiduo to fetch water, Xu Xingxing got into bed. There was a magazine "Friends" on the head of the bed, Xu Xingxing took it over and flipped it. Huangfu Yiduo soaked his feet and asked Xu Xingxing as he lowered his head to read a book.

"Sister, does Teacher Bai Zhu like you?"

After turning the page with his fingers, Xu Xingxing looked at Huangfu Yiduo and said, "I..."

"I know." Huangfu Yiduo said with a smile, "You don't like Teacher Bai Zhu."

Xu Xingxing pursed his lips, but he didn't expect his performance to be so obvious.

With his feet thumping in the basin, Huangfu Yiduo said like someone who came over: "Mr. Bai Zhu is very good, but when you are with him, it is like being with your teacher."

After all, Huangfu Yiduo has been in love, and her feelings in this regard are still very keen. Xu Xingxing listened to her analysis and felt that she was like an emotional analyst.

"Then what should the person you like look like?" Xu Xingxing asked with a smile.

"You know." Huangfu Yiduo said with a smile, "I have seen it several times."

Looking up from the magazine, Xu Xingxing met Huangfu Yiduo's eyes.

Huangfu Yiduo endured her gaze and said earnestly: "Sister, you actually have someone you like, so that's why you rejected Teacher Bai Zhu so directly. There were several times when you walked out of the store as if you were going to see you. Like a lover. At that time, you were very happy and happy, like a little girl."

Having said that, Huangfu Yiduo sighed slightly, looked at Xu Xingxing and said, "But sister, you always say that you don't have someone you like, maybe you haven't realized that you like him. Sister, you are so happy to see him every time. Who is that person?"

Xu Xingxing looked shocked.

While the two were staring at each other silently, a piece of news suddenly appeared on the black-and-white TV with snowflakes.

"IO Group, a well-known domestic jewelry group, has been caught in a huge fraud, and the amount defrauded may be as high as hundreds of millions. It is reported that the fraud case was caused by the cooperation between IO and French fashion group CG. Our reporter arrived at the IO Group Building as soon as possible, and the IO Group President Huaijing did not respond to this..."

The announcer finished broadcasting and placed a video. The content of the video is at the entrance of the IO Building. Amidst many reporters watching, a man, under the protection of several black bodyguards, walked towards the black car parked at the entrance.

He is tall and straight, his eyebrows are slightly wrinkled, his jaw line is tight, and his contours are perfect. He didn't seem to be affected by this group of people, and his body exuded a cold and powerful aura, as if he existed beyond the people around him.

Xu Xingxing looked at his handsome face, and listened to Huangfu Yiduo's words just now, as if a train passed by in his heart, and the rumbling sound shattered all her defenses.

Maybe you haven't realized you like him yet.
