Sir, what if it's too cold?

"Ah?" Xu Muran raised his head from the pile of books in surprise: "Me? Are you sure?"

Cheng Xuewei gave her a sympathetic look, and nodded helplessly: "Well, it's you."

The unit's annual fun sports meeting is about to start again, and Xu Muran was reported as the only women's 1000m runner in their branch.

"My God, how could such a thing happen..." She looked up and wailed, "Why is my life so hard..."

"I can't help it, only the two of us came this year..." Cheng Xuewei also resigned to her fate and sat back in her seat: "Let's take pity on each other, I'm running eight hundred."

"But you don't have to think about it that much. It's not about physical education exams or anything like that. Some of them are dragged on by people until the end...No one remembers you, so don't worry."

Although comforted in this way, Xu Muran is still immersed in the pain of running 1000 meters, and he will not be able to recover for a while.After a long while, she took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Moments in a breakdown: I don't want to run 1000 meters!

Zhou Qing: How to run 1000 meters?

Mu Mu's private room meow: Ah, just now my colleague said that the company is going to hold a sports meeting... and I was chosen for no reason.

Zhou Qing: When?

Mumu Private Meow: Next weekend.

Zhou Qing: Come and find me then, I should be in the laboratory.

Obviously there is going to be a sports meeting, how can I let myself go to her.And doesn't she still have a meeting...

Out of politeness, Xu Muran replied symbolically: Huh?

Zhou Qing: Don't you know?You borrowed a large venue.

Xu Muran turned his head and asked Cheng Xuewei: "Is the sports meeting held in University A?"

Cheng Xuewei said: "Yeah, didn't I tell you just now?"

...You just didn't tell me.

She thought for a while and replied: Ah...then, see you then.

"... That's all for my speech, thank you everyone."

There was thunderous applause from the audience, Zhou Qing put away his draft, bowed politely, then turned and left the stage.This is not the first time for her to be a keynote speaker, and she is already familiar with all the steps, and then she will wait for the question time after the meeting, and then she can go back home.

When she entered the lounge, she saw Lan Fu approaching him with a dejected face.While putting the draft into the folder, she asked Lan Fu: "What's wrong? Are there any questions?"

"No, no," the other party quickly shook his head, "It's pretty good!"

"Then why are you acting like this?" Zhou Qing turned to look at her, "Tell me something quickly, don't dawdle, I have to go to the airport later."

"Ah, I was just about to tell you, Mr. Zhou, that's right. The organizer just sent someone over to say that the flight we're going to take has been canceled due to a system problem at the airport..."

"What? So what are they going to do?"

Lan Fu saw that Zhou Qing's complexion was not good, and quickly added: "But, but they have already repaired it. They said that they arranged for the flight until [-]:[-] p.m. and upgraded us to first class."

Zhou Qing was speechless: "Okay."

"Teacher Zhou……"

"Ok?"

Zhou Qing just sat down and was about to turn on her laptop when Lan Fu approached her smilingly: "Have you been to Jiang City before?"

"no, what happened?"

"I haven't been here either, but I heard that there is a very famous afternoon market street here, which sells some local specialties. Do you want to go shopping together when the time is over?"

Zhou Qing put down the mouse and looked up at her: "Have you sorted out the meeting minutes? Have you finished the reference materials? Have you reported the experimental data?"

"No..." Lan Fu knew he was in the wrong. This business trip was supposedly for a meeting, but everyone knew in their hearts that everything would not be all right after the meeting. Each of them came out with a mission.

The publication season is coming soon, and all the universities and research labs are trying their best to make big news. As the top few in China, their labs naturally can't fall too far behind, otherwise no one will be ashamed. nice.

"Can't you get out yet?"

Lan Fu shook his head pitifully.Zhou Qing obviously didn't say anything serious, but when it reached his ears, it was unexpectedly deterrent. In the whole laboratory, the most persuasive words, except for Li Duyi, were Zhou Qing.

She was about to sit back in her seat when she heard Zhou Qing leisurely say: "Forget it, your nerves have been strained for so long, just go shopping and relax."

"Where is that street? I'll go with you later."

Time is more valuable than money when you are away from home.They called a special car and drove all the way.

After arriving at the place, Lan Fu said that he wanted to pick a string of beeswax for her boyfriend, but Zhou Qing was not interested, so the two separated, agreeing to meet again in a few hours.

The name of this street is "Yunli", which means "in the clouds and in the fog", and it gives people a sense of mystery before they meet each other.Different from the general special attractions, besides selling small items and snacks, Yunli Street has another thing that people flock to, that is——

Temple at the end of the street.

Following the name of "Yunli", this temple is called "Yun Temple".People of the older generation trust the gods enshrined in the temple very much, and offer generous sacrifices every year according to the solar terms, which are said to be very effective, and all wishes will come true after sincere prayers.Later, the link of offering sacrifices was gradually forgotten, and the title of "efficacy" has continued to this day.

Zhou Qing took a brief look around the surrounding shops, and was not interested in anything, so he was going to visit Yun Temple.

Time slipped quietly with the curved eaves around the vermilion roof. This temple hidden in the downtown area stands like it has been thousands of years ago. .

Climbing up the thick stone steps, a very tall building is presented in front of you. There is a long queue at the ticket office at the gate of the temple, and there is an endless stream of pilgrims coming and going.

After Zhou Qing bought the ticket, he strolled around the temple a few times, bought a handful of incense, and lined up behind the main hall where there were many people.

She took a burning incense stick and a censer full of ashes, took a step back, clasped her hands together, and made a wish devoutly.

After making a wish, she turned around and left the temple gate, and was stopped by a smiling old woman at the corner——

"Girl, do you want to come and have a look at my stall?"

Xu Muran grabbed the white T-shirt on her body, and looked at the track in front of her very tragically: in the next few minutes, she will run or walk five laps on this track—Bai Meng means that even if she climbs, she will To complete five laps.

She quietly sent a WeChat message to Zhao Yi: What should I do, I feel like I am going to die=,=

Zhao Yi: Go bravely girl, I will remember to burn paper money for you when the time comes.

... This little heartless one.The sun above her head was so strong that she couldn't keep her eyes open.

Bai Meng walked up to her and asked her, "How do you feel?"

She replied weakly: "It's okay."

"It's okay." Bai Meng nodded, "There are still 5 minutes, let's go to the starting line."

"Ah."

She put the water bottle on the sidelines, then turned around and stood by the starting line.

She doesn't think she has much athletic talent, and the moment she was most concerned about sports since she was a child was the physical education high school entrance examination seven or eight years ago, and she was carried around by her father every day after getting up early.

Now the scene at that time seems to reappear in front of my eyes, the same plastic runway, the same sky, but the people around me are different.

Ah, really, isn't it just a jog? There's nothing to hurt the spring and the autumn...

Xu Muran shook his head and laughed at himself secretly, squatting down to straighten his shoelaces.

The moment the starting gun fired, she felt like her heart was about to jump out nervously.

Isn't it just running? What's so sad about spring and autumn... Ghost!

You can run! ! !

One lap...two laps...three laps...

On the third and a half laps, Xu Muran deeply felt that he was no longer able to do it.

Four laps... four and a half laps... five laps...

finally reached.

She was coughing so much that she was about to vomit, and physiological tears were already seeping from the corners of her eyes. At this time, she just wanted to drink something to moisten her thirsty throat that was already on fire——

Water...ah, water...

Where's her water glass?She was put on the sidelines before the start of the race, right?

Cough, sore throat, abdominal pain, several kinds of feelings mixed together, Xu Muran even felt that he was about to confess here.

"Xu Muran!" Cheng Xuewei hurried over with a bottle of mineral water in her hand, "Why didn't you bring a bottle of water? Here, drink quickly."

Seeing her coming, Xu Muran snatched the water from her hand as if seeing a rescuer, gulped it down, and then felt better: "I clearly remember that I brought it..."

"Who will take you a bottle of mineral water?" Cheng Xuewei cast a glance at her, helped her up, and comforted her: "It's alright, it's fine, just finish the run in peace, go back."

"Ah," Xu Muran remembered now, and quickly asked her, "Where did I run?"

Cheng Xuewei looked at her dumbfounded: "Don't you know how many times you ran? Second, it's already very good."

second?

Xu Muran smiled and said, "Ah, I just didn't expect that I could run No.2 too..."

In fact, I'm still a little bit unwilling... Xu Muran thought.

If only I could run faster...

Forget it, as Cheng Xuewei said, this is already very good.Thinking about it this way, she instantly felt that it wasn't so bad.

People live forever, contented and happy.

She followed Cheng Xuewei back to her place, accepted everyone's applause, and hid aside to send a WeChat message.

Mu Mu's private room meow: Teacher Zhou, I just finished running~o(〃'▽'〃)o

Zhou Qing: Well, how did you run?

Mumu's private room meow: It's okay, the second~

Zhou Qing: Very good, applause for you.

What the hell is this déjà vu feeling like chatting with an elder...

Xu Muran suppressed a smile: Then I'll have nothing to do in the future, shall I go to see you later?

Zhou Qing: No, I'll go find you.

Zhou Qing: I bought you a gift when I was on a business trip. I thought you would like it. Let’s have dinner together at night. It’s just for you.

Hey, Zhou Qing actually bought her a gift...

Xu Muran felt a little embarrassed: Why did you suddenly buy me a gift... so suddenly...

Zhou Qing: I just think it suits you very well, don't feel pressured.

Having said all this, Xu Muran thought for a while, and agreed with the situation: "Then... alright."
