love you hell

After calling Xia Qing within 5 minutes, Zheng Jing regretted it.She didn't know why she suddenly thought of asking Xia Qing out for dinner.

It's not that Zheng Jing has never had a New Year's Eve dinner alone, that's nothing, even once when the New Year's fireworks were blooming, she still lurked outside an old factory building in the suburbs and waited patiently.Today, it was just because I accidentally thought of Xia Qing spending the New Year alone that I said that invitation.

In the end, what was Xia Qing's answer?She decides the location!

God knows what idea Xia Qing, that eccentric person with a belly full of bad water, is up to!

However, after agreeing to everything, Zheng Jing could only bite the bullet and go to the appointment. Before going, she took out her wallet to check whether her credit card was still there.

At the intersection where Xia Qing said, Zheng Jing greeted Xia Qing with a smile that was not a smile, and her heart thumped even more.

Taking a look at Xia Qing's clothes, the material seems to be quite high-end, how much is it?What is the usual consumption level of this strange female student?

Feeling anxious, Zheng Jing followed Xia Qing into the taxi, and then listened to Xia Qing give out a place name with a smile.

... xx hotel.

Zheng Jing felt that her heart was getting colder and colder.The xx hotel has a very famous top-floor restaurant. It is said that the dishes are delicious in color and fragrance, and the decoration and style are also top-notch, as well as comfortable and elegant live performances.

The problem is, the price is also very impressive...

Is the credit card limit enough?Zheng Jing was very sad.

Along the way, Zheng Jing was immersed in the grief of her credit card and next year's salary and couldn't extricate herself, Xia Qing just had a clear smile and didn't speak.

The streets on New Year's Eve were empty, and before Zheng Jing could recover, the car had already arrived.

"Officer Zheng, since it's your treat, I'll pay the fare for the car." Xia Qing stopped Zheng Jing from taking out the money, paid the taxi fare with a smile, and hit Zheng Jing back with one sentence.

Leaving the car, looking up at the high-ceilinged restaurant that seemed to be inlaid with gold, Zheng Jing put on a look of resignation, and silently followed Xia Qing.

Then, she saw Xia Qing walking towards the xx building, getting closer and closer, and Zheng Jing felt that she could already see the automatic door under the building that was constantly being opened and closed by people.

then……

Xia Qing turned a corner and turned into a small alley next to the building.

what?

Zheng Jing froze for a moment, dumbfounded.

"Officer Zheng, come here soon, I don't like this alley very much." Xia Qing's dissatisfied voice came, and Zheng Jing was sure that Xia Qing wanted to keep up by herself, and immediately trotted over.

The alley is not long, Zheng Jing followed Xia Qing for a while, and suddenly realized.

Unexpectedly, the other end of this alley turned out to be an old street with many small storefronts, resembling the feeling of the old neighborhood in TV dramas.

Because of the Chinese New Year, all the shops in sight are closed, and it looks a little deserted.

However, Xia Qing was not affected at all, and led Zheng Jing for a while before turning into a shop.

The door of the shop was closed, with a thick curtain hanging down, but Xia Qing opened it directly and went in. It wasn't until entering the shop that Zheng Jing realized that the shop seemed to be open, and occasionally there were two or three people sitting around Chatting enthusiastically at the table.

"Uncle, I want a grilled fish here, and some delicious side dishes." Xia Qing seemed to be familiar with this place, so she found a seat and sat down, and said to the boss.

"It's you, you brought friends here this time? Wait! Uncle will pick out a good one for you!" As he spoke, the boss walked aside and fumbled in the water tank for a while, and brought out a lively grass carp.

"Officer Zheng, do you like to eat standing up?" Xia Qing laid out the dishes leisurely, and then looked at Zheng Jing, very satisfied with the look on her face.

No matter what Zheng Jing did, she could tell that Xia Qing was teasing herself. She took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a little funny. She went to sit opposite Xia Qing, and put away the bowls and chopsticks self-sufficiently like her.

After a while, several small dishes came up one after another. Seeing Xia Qing move her chopsticks, Zheng Jing also tasted it, and it was really delicious.

"Uncle's house is here, and it's also open during Chinese New Year." Xia Qing explained simply, "I've been here a few times, and we've gotten to know each other."

Xia Qing said it casually, but Zheng Jing frowned: "You always celebrate the New Year by yourself?"

Xia Qing paused, glanced at Zheng Jing, and suddenly smiled: "I remember... Officer Zheng seems to have said that he wants to communicate with my family about my problem?"

"..." Zheng Jing was silent for a while, "Sorry, I don't know..." She was a little embarrassed.

"Pfft." Xia Qing smiled, "Officer Zheng thought I was an orphan?"

Zheng Jing was stunned for a moment, her brain was disconnected, she could only look at Xia Qing stupidly, puzzled.

Xia Qing let out a long sigh: "My father is still here, but..." She seemed a little hesitant, and after a moment of hesitation, she said, "Our relationship is not good. My family is in the mountains, and my father doesn't like me going out to study. He just wants me to stay. Inheriting the ancestral business at home. I haven’t gone back for several years, and I’m afraid that if I go back, he will stop me at home and won’t let me out.”

Zheng Jing looked at Xia Qing suspiciously. To be honest, she couldn't imagine that Xia Qing grew up in such a traditional family.What's more, Xia Qing itself can be regarded as "notorious".

Xia Qing didn't seem to care about these things, she just shrugged her shoulders: "Don't talk about this, eating is the only thing."

Xia Qing didn't focus on this matter, but there seemed to be a sense of loneliness hidden in her eyes, which made Zheng Jing uncertain.

However, Zheng Jing didn't say much, and just ate the food obediently.

The atmosphere was somewhat dull, in stark contrast to the lively discussions at the neighboring tables.

But soon the boss brought the grilled fish to the table, and the dignified atmosphere was suddenly evaporated by the steam mixed with the aroma. Xia Qing made a gesture to Zheng Jing: "Officer Zheng, you also put the vegetables on your side Bury it in hot oil."

In a word, this incident can be regarded as being exposed. Eating fragrant and spicy grilled fish on a cold day makes my stomach and body feel warm.

In the end, a dinner was only two or three sheets of Grandpa Mao. Zheng Jing felt that the ups and downs were really emotional.

"Want to watch the fireworks?" He Xia Qing left the shop, seeing that Xia Qing didn't speak, Zheng Jing asked after thinking about it.

On New Year's Eve in City H, there will be a fireworks show at square a, starting at 0:[-] midnight, many young people and people who live nearby will specially go to the square to watch.

"Okay." Xia Qing answered very simply, and seemed to be easier to talk to than ever before.

It's not far from Square A, and the two of them walked all the way there, almost just enough time.

There were quite a few people standing in the square, some of them looked like couples, some of them were partners in small groups, most of them were young people.

They all smiled, panting and waiting, saying a few words from time to time.

"Just here, you don't need to go too far." Xia Qing stopped, keeping her hands in the pockets of her coat.

Zheng Jing noticed that her shoulders seemed to be shrinking, and she really didn't look too warm in her clothes.

"This is for you. I don't want to wear more on such a cold day." Zheng Jing took off her scarf and wrapped it around Xia Qing's neck without any explanation. The warm temperature really made Xia Qing feel a lot better.

boom--

The sound of fireworks exploding sounded, and the new year came.

Zheng Jing looked up at the colorful sky, and those fireworks looked gorgeous and colorful, which made people sigh.

Suddenly there was a booing cheer from not far away.

Zheng Jing followed the sound, and there seemed to be a couple kissing, and several people around were laughing and clapping their hands.

It was as if a switch had been turned on, and many couples around also looked at each other and began to hug and kiss.

Zheng Jing didn't know why, but hurriedly looked away, feeling a little hot on her face.She unconsciously looked at Xia Qing, but found that she was still looking up at the gorgeous fireworks in the sky, but she didn't have the happy smile of ordinary people on her face.

It seems... Under the colorful fireworks, this moment should be a happy New Year's time, but Xia Qing is sad.

"Sister, sister." Before Zheng Jing could think of a way to interrupt Xia Qing's inexplicably sad atmosphere, she felt her sleeves being pulled, and a soft voice sounded.

Zheng Jing looked down and saw a little boy wearing a big red down jacket, with big eyes sparkling, looking really cute.

Seeing Zheng Jing noticed him, the little boy showed a big smile, and spread his hands towards Zheng Jing: "Happy New Year, bring the red envelope!"
