Chapter 178 Meteor Shower

The restaurants outside Xinyijia are also blooming everywhere, but at this point, any one is overcrowded.

Lai Xuchen walked around outside for a long time, and finally entered a steam hot pot restaurant.The location of this store is relatively remote, and the design of the gatehouse is also very ordinary. At first glance, I thought it was a homestay.If it weren't for Lai Xuchen's sharp eyes, he probably wouldn't have noticed that there was a shop here.

When he walked in, the waiter at the front desk just looked up and waited for him to find a place to sit down before handing him a menu card.When he was flipping through the menu and preparing to order, a boy with a backpack came over from the next table and sat down opposite him.

"Are you alone?" The boy is also one of the few customers in this store. He looked at Lai Xuchen with expectant eyes, and did not continue until he nodded: "I am also alone. I just looked at the menu. , I think it’s good to have a set meal for two, why don’t we join a table and eat that set meal for two?”

"Whatever." As soon as Lai Xuchen finished speaking, the boy raised his hand to order and chose the set meal for two.

When the waiter started to serve the dishes, the boy put the backpack he was carrying on the side table with a happy expression on his face.

Lai Xuchen noticed his backpack and couldn't help asking, "Are you a student?"

"Well, I'm already an intern. I study astronomy." When talking about astronomy, the boy's eyes lit up. "Astronomy is the study of things like stars and galaxies. It's very interesting."

Lai Xuchen nodded slightly, and said "oh", from his expression, it can be seen that he is not interested in astronomy.

"I'm not a student in this city, but there is a meteor shower tonight, so I just want to come and watch the stars." The boy explained the purpose of his trip while picking up food.

"Is there a meteor shower tonight? Where is it?" Lai Xuchen paused his chopsticks and asked. He was not interested in astronomy, but he was interested in meteor showers.

"Just above this city, the Leonid meteor shower." The boy picked up a few pieces of eels for dinner, and talked about the meteor shower tonight.

Tonight's Leonid meteor shower will start at [-] o'clock and last for about two hours. The best place to watch it is the top of Banzhao Mountain, but you can usually see it from the top of higher buildings.

The boy talked a lot with great interest, but Lai Xuchen just nodded slightly, thoughtful.As he quietly peeled and ate the shrimp, many images flashed through his mind as he dipped in the sauce.

For example, the picture of Lu Lanqing being choked by mustard shrimp; for example, the picture of Lu Lanqing falling asleep with her forehead propped on her side and her eyes closed; for example... those pictures overlap with the present, and Lu Lanqing's appearance overlaps with the boy in front of her.

"I'm full, let's go first, I treat you this meal, I wish you a shooting star." Lai Xuchen was afraid that if he continued to watch, he would take him for Lu Lanqing.So, he got up, went to the front desk to check out, and walked out of the store.

"Hey, I haven't given you an equal share of the money yet, you wait." When the boy chased out with his bag on his back, there were only a group of pedestrians and vehicles around him.

Lai Xuchen went back to the phone repair shop, he paid two red Grandpa Mao, and took the phone away.When he was checking whether the phone was still working, Lu Lanqing sent a message——

Part starts at nine o'clock, Yuzhe asked me to invite you, but it's up to you whether you come or not.

When Lai Xuchen saw this message, he had the urge to smash the phone again. He held the phone tightly, and the screen could be broken with bare hands if he was stronger.

After a while, he edited a message and left the mall after sending it.

The street lamps on the side of the street were lit up, which was the same color as the dusk, and looked a little hazy. In this hazy distance, the color of the sky was strange, like an oil painting.

Lu Lanqing was leaning against the wall of the villa compound, standing under the sky like an oil painting, looking down at her phone.

He received a reply--

I'm going to watch the meteor shower at nine o'clock. I invite you to watch it, but it's up to you whether you come or not.

Lu Lanqing looked at the message blankly, then put away her phone and went to help arrange the part.

There was a square dining table in the yard, and there was an assortment of food on the table, and Huang Zejiao was still serving delicious food outside one after another. There were several people around the dining table, and they were all busy with their own work.

Sun Yusheng and She Yan were still playing balloons, Zhao Han and Jian Xiaofei were serving red wine and champagne, Qin Wen and Gan Shaoqun had just arrived and were parking at the door.Among these people, only Lu Lanqing and Sun Yuzhe were idle. They stood on both sides of the floor-to-ceiling windows, leaning against the wall and looking at their mobile phones.

"Lan Qing." As soon as Qin Wen parked the car, Gan Shaoqun walked towards Lu Lanqing.He looked around while walking, and then asked, "Did Lai Xuchen come?"

Lu Lanqing put away her phone and looked up, her face darkened, "Whether he likes to come or not."

After all, Lu Lanqing passed by Gan Shaoqun and Qin Wen to help prepare for the welcome party.

"Lan Qing, can we talk alone for a while?" Qin Wen asked when he passed by.

Lu Lanqing could guess that what Qin Wen wanted to talk about was about Lai Xuchen. He paused for a moment, then took a new step and said, "Let's talk about it later."

A while is sometimes very long, so long that Lai Xuchen walked the couple's road around, but the person he was waiting for didn't come, and he didn't reply.

So, he walked around the surrounding scenic spots again, and he didn't see any meteor shower when he reached ten o'clock.

"What kind of bullshit meteor shower, there aren't even ordinary stars!" This is what he expressed when he looked up at the night sky. In the deep night sky, he could only see black clouds lingering around the moon, and nothing else, let alone a meteor shower.

Is the news released by the Meteorological Bureau false?Thinking of this, Lai Xuchen sighed, but thinking about it is right, when will the weather forecast be accurate?

A lot of people were deceived by the meteor shower tonight, the seaside and the surrounding parks were full of people, they were all chatting about the meteor shower, making the deserted night hot to the highest point.

Lai Xuchen felt that it was too noisy, so he got on the bus casually and left.

There were surprisingly few people on that bus, and a few sporadic people sat by the window, each busy with their own affairs, trapped in their own small world.

The dim lights outside the window and the passing of people and cars are reflected in Lai Xuchen's eyes. The bustle and bustle seem to have nothing to do with him. He is the quiet corner of the bustling...

In contrast to the quiet corner, is the bustle of Sun Yuzhe's house——

A picnic mat was spread on the ground of the villa compound, and a group of people sat there eating sandwiches, drinking red wine, and chatting about trivial matters.

There was also a strange man on the table mat. He sat beside Sun Yuzhe and kept a polite smile all the time, giving off an elegant and unfamiliar feeling.

That person was Sun Yuzhe's returnee boyfriend brought back from abroad. His Chinese level is not very good, so he didn't speak much all night. He was just watching this group of people chatting and making jokes.

"How did you two know each other?" Sun Yusheng began to gossip, and She Yan followed suit, saying that they wanted to play the game of biting an apple, two people.

"I'm going to the bathroom." Xu felt that he was the extra person, so Lu Lanqing took the opportunity to leave the bustling place.

He didn't come back after going to the bathroom, but stood quietly on the balcony on the second floor, blowing the night wind, Qin Wen looked up and saw him without thoughts in his eyes.

"Young group, I'm going to smoke a cigarette, you guys play first." Qin Wen left the group on the grounds of smoking, and walked to the balcony where Lu Lanqing was sitting with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Puff out the cigarette." Before he could speak, he was ordered to put out the cigarette.

"It's not a bad thing to smoke properly." Qin Wen couldn't find the ashtray, so he could only go back to the stairs and finish smoking quickly.After smoking, he waved his hand to dissipate the smell of cigarettes, and walked towards the balcony.

"Will Ah Chen smoke when he's with you?" Lu Lanqing didn't like looking at the person he was talking to, so when he asked this question, Qin Wen had to react for a few seconds before realizing that there was no third person here.
