It was completely dark outside and the sound of rain had subsided.

When Ding Jiaying opened her eyes, she saw a huge human head on her pillow.

After being confused for a moment, the man turned around and Ding Jiaying came to her senses.

"What was that expression on your face just now? Are you having trouble thinking?" Xiao Mimi was a little dissatisfied. "You didn't seem excited at all to see me. You looked very calm."

Ding Jiaying thought for a moment and said, "I'll close my eyes and try again."

"Forget it, it's boring." Xiao Mimi was dissatisfied and was about to get angry.

Ding Jiaying suddenly opened her eyes and hugged the person in her arms: "Who is this? So pretty! It turns out to be my cute and charming Xiao Mimi! Whose little cat is this? So cute and caring, guarding me and waiting for me to wake up! Did you prepare delicious food? Mua~mua~ Let me kiss you~"

Xiao Mimi fought off the attack of saliva while yelling, "Who is your little kitty? You're taking advantage of me again, pretending to be the master! You've become bad!"

"Come on, come on~ Kitty, don't run away~"

"Ding Jiaying, you pervert~"

After arguing for a while, the two sat up and talked.

"You must have stayed in the desert for too long. You've changed so much. It's only been a short time since we last met."

Ding Jiaying ate the melon she had peeled and said, "Do you know the Huoyan Mountain? The surface temperature there can reach 81 degrees in the summer. It not only removes moisture from the body, but also dries up the water in the brain."

Xiao Mimi expressed her disbelief: "And then you just let it go?"

I've been to that place before, how could it be so magical?

"You don't understand this. I was buried in the sand, my body was in the soil. The world was so vast and desolate, and all of a sudden, I felt relieved. The past twenty years are nothing." Ding Jiaying didn't seem to be deliberately sensational.

"Really?"

"Really? Go to the top of the sand hill and look at the stars. There are so many of them and they are so bright. It's not that the stars don't exist, it's that the lights of the city have blinded us."

"You are indeed more suitable to be a writer, philosopher and artist, rather than following me to be a businessman and craftsman." Xiao Mimi sighed.

Suddenly, a hand touched Xiao Mimi's head: "Good boy, you have grown up."

"Ding Jiaying. I take back what I said. Childish."

Ding Jiaying and Xiao Mimi were very relaxed together. They ate, drank, and chatted casually.

Talking about Shangguan Mu and Ms. Xiao Ruyi's wedding preparations, talking about Han Jingke's dealings with Jin Hengli Group, gossiping about Han Jingke and that lady's marriage, and accidentally hearing that Ding Jiayin seems to be interested in a new tech upstart...

Xiao Mimi refused to say a word to Chen Mi, even though he was the one who went to pick her up at the airport.

She didn't ask, but Ding Jiaying took the initiative to tell her.

"Chen Mi came to pick me up today and said you had something to do. What did you do today?"

Xiao Mimi knew that what happened between them was not a simple question of forgiveness or not. It was impossible for friends of so many years to just stop having any contact with each other forever.

So, when Chen Mi asked to pick her up, she did not refuse.

"It was Amura who took him to the hospital."

Ding Jiaying's mind turned and she sat up straight: "Are you pregnant?"

"Can you please stop looking like that? You look like you're ready to rush over and cause trouble for Amu at any moment. Beating him up would be the least of his worries."

"Is it so obvious? I think I'm quite gentle." Ding Jiaying frowned slightly, "Did it scare you?"

"It was just a false alarm." Xiao Mimi spread her hands, "Nothing."

"?"

Xiao Mimi reiterated: "I'm not pregnant. You look just as silly as Shangguan."

"Then you..." Xiao Mimi couldn't stand Ding Jiaying's hesitant look.

"Don't worry about me. There's nothing wrong with my body, and neither does that guy. We're just taking measures to lose weight. We don't have any plans." Xiao Mimi knew that this guy had a psychological trauma.

Ding Jiaying nodded.

"Hey, please don't act like you're my elder, okay? I don't have to worry about my mother as much as you do." Xiao Mimi walked to the bar and poured herself a glass of wine.

"Didn't I tell you not to drink?"

"I finally have nothing to do with you today, and you are so nagging."

"All right, all right. Enjoy life to the fullest when it's your turn."

The two of them drank wine and ate meat, talking about what they had seen and heard since they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Ding Jiaying told her about how Uncle Daping took her to Hotan to collect jade and they almost fell into a ditch and no one knew about it; about how they went to Altay to watch the stars but the sun didn't set until they fell asleep; about how they went to the Devil City too late and stood next door to listen to the howling of ghosts and wolves in fear...

She laughed so hard while saying this that Ding Jiaying even forgot about the tears she was crying.

Xiao Mimi felt so distressed that she kept telling her that she had lost weight and needed to eat more to replenish her body.

After drinking a lot, Ding Jiaying settled Xiao Mimi down and slept in the guest room.

If there is any major improvement I have made these days, it is that my drinking capacity has increased by leaps and bounds.

If we have to give a reason, it is probably because the desert dries up the moisture in the human body and takes it away, leaving space for wine.

Lying in bed, unable to sleep.

There is a time difference between the past and here.

Qiao Shen sent a message to Ding Jiaying to invite her to go to Uncle Daping's cafe near Xueye Primary School tomorrow.

"Isn't Uncle Daping a jade carver? Why is he not doing his job properly? He just opened a new homestay over there and a cafe over here?"

Qiao Shen replied quickly: "It's all because of the power of your live broadcast that Uncle Daping's influence on the Internet is skyrocketing. People don't call him by his real name anymore, they call him Uncle Abuti. I heard you're back, so I want to invite you to come and play."

"alright."

The next day, Xiao Mimi got up and went to work and saw Ding Jiaying was already in the kitchen making breakfast.

"Didn't you say you had jet lag? Why are you getting up so early? Why don't you get some more sleep?"

Ding Jiaying curled her lips and said, "I felt jet lag when I was sleeping, but my body automatically adapted when I got up. You can take one with you. I've packed it for you."

Xiao Mimi looked surprised: "I have never seen you so virtuous in my life, including you and Shen...that is..."

Knowing that she had said the wrong thing, Xiao Mimi stuttered.

Ding Jiaying drank coffee and said, "I see. You said I wasn't so virtuous when I was married. Don't you have a cook? I won't do it here, so will you?"

"You really can't count on me. Thanks." Xiao Mimi shook the lunch box in her hand, closed the door and left.

Ding Jiaying slowly tidied herself up and put on makeup in front of the mirror.

It’s been a while since I took care of myself like this. I don’t even know if my cosmetics have expired.

Thinking of this, he threw his own things aside and used Xiao Mimi's things.

After getting dressed and putting on pearl earrings, she looked more than dignified enough to attend the opening ceremony.

"Honey, don't you have a white car? Where are the keys? Open it for me."

Xiao Mimi on the other end of the phone seemed very busy: "Why are you driving Xiaobai? Drive your own car. It's at the elevator entrance on the second floor below ground. The key is in the toad's mouth at the door."

"it is good."

It's true that when you've been away for three days, you should look at him with new eyes. He even thought of such details.

Ding Jiaying was about to go out with the key in her hand when she saw Xiao Mimi's small bag right in front of her.

"I was in such a hurry that I even left my bag at home."

Since she's so supportive, let's take her to the company and then to the cafe.
