Silver Leaf Whale Chapter 53

Qi Zhixuan and Haicheng

Chapter 53: Qi Zhixuan and Haicheng

The two of them worked until midnight before going to bed, but Qi Zhixuan still had to get up early in the morning, and Mingyuegui’s friends were waiting for him to go through the final draft on the spot.

Pang Whale was sleeping deeply, breathing evenly and peacefully.Qi Zhixuan couldn’t bear to wake him, so he stood up quietly, pressed a note on the bedside table, picked up the car keys and quietly went out.

When he arrived at the garage, Qi Zhixuan was stunned as he looked at the car in front of him. Zhu Mingyue left him a particularly flashy pink Bentley. It seemed to be a 30th birthday gift from her parents. She loved it so much at the time, but it didn’t take long for it to become a car that she said she didn’t drive much.

With no other choice, Qi Zhixuan could only bite the bullet and drive out in this car with pink bubbles flying everywhere.

On the other side, Pang Whale didn’t sleep for long. He woke up immediately without touching the people around him.

“Xiao Xuan?” The house was quiet, and no one answered. He searched around and found no one. On the bedside table, there was a note with a bunch of keys, and the handwriting was elegant: “There is breakfast downstairs. I will go to the company first and pick you up for dinner at noon.”

Pang Jing found that as long as he did intimate things with Qi Zhixuan, he would always sleep deeply and peacefully. Today, he even slept so much that he didn’t even know that Qi Zhixuan was gone. He agreed to be the rich second generation’s follower, but in the end, the rich second generation went to work, and the follower ate a ready-made breakfast at home.

He took out a set of clothes from his suitcase and put them on. After washing, he went downstairs. There was a sandwich and a glass of warm milk on the dining table, which Qi Zhixuan specially prepared for him.

It seems like this is the first time I’ve eaten something made by Qi Zhixuan. It’s quite delicious.

After eating and drinking, Pang Jing took a stroll around the house and took a photo of Qi Zhixuan’s childhood photos in the stairwell with his mobile phone and saved them in a photo album.

But not long after he stayed, he couldn’t sit still. Qi Zhixuan left the key, obviously wanting him to go out and hang out when he was bored, but he had no idea and just wanted to find Qi Zhixuan.

As soon as he left, Pang Jing opened the navigation and searched Mingyuegui. The distance was not close, so he hailed a taxi and headed there.

As the car drove away from the residential area, the scenery outside the window gradually became elegant.Only then did I realize that Qi Zhixuan’s house was surrounded by bungalows of different styles, either romantic or serious, high-profile or quiet. Both sides of the road were planted with French plane trees, and the sunlight passed through the new green sycamore leaves and fell through the gaps. Even the light and shadow carried the gentleness of spring in the south.

The beautiful scenery is as dreamy as glass candy wrappers. It turns out that Qi Zhixuan has lived in such a place since he was a child. No wonder he is also so beautiful.

When Mingyue returned, he didn’t make an appointment and didn’t want to disturb Qi Zhixuan, so he had to sit in the foyer.

We sat there until noon, when Qi Zhixuan came out, holding the phone to his ear, as if he was talking to someone, and then Pang Jing’s cell phone rang.

Before the call was connected, the person had already appeared in front of him. Qi Zhixuan hung up the phone in surprise and ran over quickly, “Why are you here? Why don’t you come in?”

“Is it over?” Pang Jing asked.

“Not yet, it will take a while.” Qi Zhixuan held his hand and went inside, “I was just about to call you to have lunch first, but I didn’t expect you to come here yourself.” He led the person to the conference room. Everyone had gone for intermission, and there was no one inside.

“Are you bored at home?” Qi Zhixuan handed him his cup with an apologetic tone, “I thought it would be over soon, but I was so busy that I didn’t even have time to take you out for a walk.”

Pang Jing took a sip and found the familiar aroma of tea, the kind that Qi Zhixuan often brewed.He smiled and pinched Qi Zhixuan’s cheek, “Didn’t we agree that I will be a follower? How can I let the young master accompany me? You are busy with your work, and I will wait for you.”

The rest time ended quickly, and Qi Zhixuan returned to work.Pang Jing was afraid of disturbing him, so he went outside to wait for someone. As a result, he happened to bump into Zhu Mingyue coming out of another conference room.

“Hey, come and wait for Xuan.” Zhu Mingyue greeted him with a smile, “Come in and sit down, don’t stay outside.” After saying that, he led the person into his office and poured him a cup of hot tea.

“Thank you.” Pang Jing thanked him politely.

Zhu Mingyue sat across from him and looked at him carefully. He was quite handsome and had a good figure.”Xiao Xuan said you are an athlete?” Zhu Mingyue asked.

Pang Jing nodded and said, “Yes, I practice swimming.”

“Well, that’s good.” Zhu Mingyue’s nails tapped lightly on the table, making a crisp clicking sound, “But athletes eat youth rice. Have you ever thought about what you will do in the future?”

“If you are in good condition, you can continue to compete. If you are not in good condition, you can retire and continue studying, or engage in related work, within the system or on the front line.” Pang Jing answered honestly.

“Oh?” Zhu Mingyue suddenly stopped on her fingertips, raised her eyes to look at him, and changed the subject, “Have you ever considered coming to the south for development?”

Pang Whale raised his eyes and met hers. He did not respond immediately, but quietly waited for her to continue.

Seeing this, Zhu Mingyue smiled and softened her tone: “Don’t be nervous, I’m just asking casually, nothing else.”

There was silence in the office for a moment.Zhu Mingyue stood up and straightened her skirt: “Okay, I’m going to get busy. You can rest here for a while. Xiao Xuan is almost finished. Let’s have a work lunch together in my company later. I’ll let him go if I change the picture in the afternoon.”

After saying that, she turned and left.Pang Jing sat alone in the office and didn’t take another sip until the tea in the cup was cold.

“Xiaoyu Xiaoyu, let’s eat.” Zhu Mingyue said that Pang Jing was here, and Qi Zhixuan knocked on the door and came in with two lunch boxes.

“Is it so hot?” Pang Jing took the lunch box in his hand and saw that he was sweating all over.

“Well, I just explained it in front of everyone, so I was a little nervous.” He said as he skillfully opened the lunch box and smiled.

Pang Whale took out a tissue and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead. He then reached out and unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, hoping to let him breathe. But as soon as he unbuttoned it, he paused and silently buttoned the second button again.

“Why are you buttoning it up again?” Qi Zhixuan was putting a mouthful of shiitake mushrooms into his mouth when he felt Pang Whale’s movements and was a little confused.

“No… let’s eat it. Is it delicious?” There were chew marks on his collarbone. How could he untie them?

“Well, it’s delicious. Try this.” Qi Zhixuan took a piece of braised pork ribs with green onion and fed it to him.

It’s really delicious. Pang Whale rarely eats pork ribs made this way. They usually stew them more.

The two hurriedly finished their lunch, and Qi Zhixuan worked for more than an hour before he finally got away and left the company with Pang Jing.

“Where are we going in the afternoon?” Qi Zhixuan put people on the pink bubble car, but he was a little scratching his head. They are usually very busy in Beijing and the city, and they don’t have enough time. They don’t know how to go out at all. Now that they have time, they really don’t know what to do.

Eating, watching movies, and going to shopping malls all seem a bit too boring.

“Let’s… go to your school and have a look, okay?” Pang Jing suddenly said, his tone a bit tentative.

Qi Zhixuan’s hand drawing on the map suddenly stopped.

His school, Haimei, counts the time and has not been there for five years.

“It’s okay. If you don’t want to go, don’t go. I’ll just ask.” Seeing Qi Zhixuan’s silence, Pang Jing quickly added.

“No, let’s go.” Qi Zhixuan smiled and positioned his mobile phone’s navigation to Haimei.

Qi Zhixuan just felt that it was a bit sudden, but there was nothing he couldn’t go to. The past was in the past. Besides, he would still go back to school in the future, so he just came back early to check out the environment.

You usually need to swipe your student card to enter and exit Haimei. Fortunately, today is the weekend. The college usually holds some public welfare exhibitions on weekends, and citizens can enter the park with their ID cards.The two of them blended in with the crowd of visitors and entered the campus smoothly.

As soon as he entered the school, Qi Zhixuan felt a strange yet familiar feeling. The weekend exhibitions in the art hall were always full. Of the six cafeterias, only the second cafeteria had the most people. The grass in front of the first teaching building turned yellow and turned green. I don’t know how many years have passed. The buildings are still the same, but the faces coming and going have changed batch after batch.

“Let’s take a walk.” Qi Zhixuan said softly.

He took Pang Jing to the clear pond of the school. The scenery here was very good. The newly drawn willow silk on the shore was moving in the wind. Occasionally, the school workers’ boats salvaging fallen leaves passed by, and the lake surface was stirred up with sparkling waves.

“Your school is very beautiful.” Pang Jing looked at some pigeons walking around the lake with tiny steps. A few students threw something on the ground, and they flew over and started pecking in the grass.

“Your school is also beautiful, and the cafeteria is better than ours.” Qi Zhixuan sat down on a long stone bench by the pool. The wind blew through his forehead, revealing his smooth forehead and smiling eyes.

“You… said before that you might come back to school?” Pang Jing sat down next to him and looked towards the lake.

They did mention it a few times on the plane. Qi Zhixuan nodded and said, “Well, that should be the case. I still have to retake the course for another year before I can graduate.”

“Then…” Pang Jing was about to continue, but was suddenly interrupted by Qi Zhixuan.

“Hey! The peacock is here! Let’s go see the little fish!” Qi Zhixuan’s eyes lit up, he took his hand and ran to the other side of the lake.

Haimei has always raised peacocks and often hangs them out by the pool. If she is lucky, she may catch them in full bloom.

“It feels like the family is getting stronger after a few years.” Qi Zhixuan happily took out his mobile phone to take pictures of the peacocks. In the past few years, there were only three or four peacocks, but now they have doubled. He doesn’t know if they were bred by himself or bought later.

After holding the phone to take pictures for a while, Qi Zhixuan couldn’t see any intention of opening the peacock’s tail. Finally, Qi Zhixuan had to put down the phone with regret, and suddenly remembered what Pang Jing was about to ask just now, “What did you just say?”

“It’s nothing.” Pang Whale pulled him over from the edge of the pool and changed the topic, “Let’s go and go shopping elsewhere.”

The two stayed in Haimei for a while. Qi Zhixuan introduced Pang Jing to the classrooms he often went to before, and took him to the art building with a special post-modern style. He also saw an exhibition. He originally wanted to take him to eat the best food in the second cafeteria, but unfortunately only the school staff could eat there. The other food was too unpalatable, so the two decided to go out to eat.

“I’m very happy today. If you hadn’t suggested it, I wouldn’t have thought of coming back.” Pang Jing drove the car on the return trip, and Qi Zhixuan sat in the passenger seat and looked through the photos taken today.

Pang Jing said nothing and focused on the road. Occasionally he glanced at Qi Zhixuan’s smile from the corner of his eye.

The two drove around for a few times before Pang Jing found a small restaurant with local dishes that Qi Zhixuan said was delicious. They ordered and were served quickly. Several of the signature dishes were covered in rich sauces and were bright red in color and mellow.Qi Zhixuan’s favorite food was the bowl of bacon, vegetables and rice. People who usually only eat one bowl of rice ordered more today.

“Do you still want to eat?” Pang Jing saw that his bowl was empty again and thought about giving him some more.

“No, no, no, it’s too full. It’s hard to digest at night.” Qi Zhixuan poured a glass of water to drink. The bacon and vegetable rice here is particularly delicious. The bacon goes very well with rice, and the vegetables inside are refreshing and sweet. The textures match so well that I couldn’t help but eat more.

“Then sit down and rest for a while, then let’s go.” Pang Jing also put down his chopsticks and poured himself a glass of water.

“Are you full? Is it not to your liking?” Pang Jing rarely ate only one bowl of rice, not even as much as he had eaten. Qi Zhixuan felt a little surprised.

“No, it’s delicious, but I’m full.” Pang Jing smiled, and there was nothing unusual in his tone.

“Oh..”

In fact, Qi Zhixuan felt that he had been a little weird these past two days. He didn’t seem to be in a very high mood, but he seemed to be the same as usual, an indescribable feeling.

Before he could figure it out, he had already arrived at home and was busy washing and scrubbing. Qi Zhixuan also wanted to chat with Pang Jing in the evening to see if he was under too much stress recently and give him some combing and adjustment. As a result, he fell asleep as soon as he came out of the bath.

Qi Zhixuan sighed softly, not having the heart to wake him up, so he lay down next to him quietly, tucked in the quilt, and gradually fell into sleep.
