Chapter 4 Chapter 3 Reunion

"Taozi, if you don't tell me, I forgot that today is April Fool's Day. What are you saying, isn't Jane making fun of me?" Wei Jing in the restaurant asked suspiciously while trying to eat the ribs.Tao Xiang squinted at her, picked up a piece of green bamboo shoots and chewed slowly, "Who do you think you are? They have that spare time to tease you?" The song rang out suddenly, and everyone around, regardless of whether they were eating or serving, looked sideways, but Tao Xiang wiped her mouth first before taking out her mobile phone from her bag.She frowned when she saw the number, and then answered, "Hello?"

Wei Jing picked up the Coca-Cola and slowly sipped Jie La. The faint voice from the cell phone over there was that of a man. She looked at Tao Xiang as she talked more and more impatiently, but she still spoke slowly.The man on the other side of the phone was jittering for a while before hanging up the phone, "Huh!" Tao Xiang let out a heavy breath, "It's a big deal, what a jitter!" "Who? Is it still the big money?" Wei Jing asked casually.Tao Xiang twitched the corner of her mouth, "There are a lot of big money chasing me, which one do you mean?" Wei Jing chuckled, "You are awesome!" Then she started to eat again, and after a few mouthfuls, she heard someone approaching obliquely from behind. The table by the gate was in a mess, as if someone had invited someone to eat here. Two people came late and were yelling about fine wine or something.

Discovering that Tao Xiang, who always hated making loud noises in public places, did not express anything uncharacteristically, Wei Jing couldn't help being a little surprised, and said before she asked Tao Xiang, "He's a soldier." Wei Jing glanced back, and sure enough that All the tables are men, all green, and no matter how they sit, their backs are straight... It turns out that if there is any noise in this world that Tao Xiang can tolerate, it is probably only the army.Wei Jing pouted and looked at Tao Xiang, who was slender, beautiful and absolutely beautiful beside her, thinking that if it wasn't for someone who knew her well, who would have thought that she had been a soldier for three full years.

Tao Xiang and Wei Jing studied in a kindergarten, primary school and middle school. They don't know how two people with different personalities can see each other right.According to Tao Xiang, who has a relatively good memory, it was because the two of them had a fight over big steamed stuffed buns stuffed with pork and cabbage in kindergarten, and the heroine regretted the heroine.Wei Jing couldn't remember this incident, but Mi Yang said, it should be true, we don't know if it is a pity, but it is indeed your Miss Wei's style to be able to fight for a meat bun.Don't stare at me, how often have I been beaten by you just to eat? !

The two didn't separate until they were in high school. There was no way, who made Miss Wei's grades not enough to go to high school.Wei Jing is very good at science, but bad at math, physics and chemistry.During the high school entrance examination, the family simply decided to let her go to a technical secondary school. Anyway, she would not be able to pass the university entrance examination. As for Tao Xiang, who was admitted to a key high school in the market, besides her academic performance, she has always been among the best. She is also often brilliant in cultural and sports activities.At that time, she wanted to be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University, which was not easy to say, but it was not a difficult task.But in the second year of high school, she made a decision that shocked the teachers and students in the school, joining the army!

A student who ranked in the top five in the city's key grades did not take the university entrance exam and insisted on serving in the army. At that time, everyone was shocked. Is this kid out of his mind?The head teacher's earnest words, Tao's father's persuasion, and Tao's mother's tearful offensive did not change Tao Xiang's decision.Just a word from the girl, I am old enough to be responsible for myself, if I am not allowed to be a soldier, I will not read books! Tao Xiang has always had such a personality since she was a child, and she has her own unique ideas. She also made a promise to her parents, no matter whether I am a soldier for three years or my whole life, I will definitely go to college!In the end, the Tao family and his wife, who both work as teachers, had no choice but to rely on her.As a good friend, Wei Jing suffered no less mental bombardment than Tao Xiang in those days. They were all gods from all walks of life who asked her to persuade Tao Xiang to change her mind. She smiled wryly. Since she was thirteen or fourteen years old, she was forced by Tao Xiang to take her to the Armed Forces Department every year to peek at those in military uniforms.

"What are you laughing at? It's creepy," Tao Xiang tapped Wei Jing's porridge bowl with chopsticks, "Ah? Did I laugh?" Wei Jing rubbed her face. "Okay, I'll go to the bathroom, you can pick and choose again, don't pack it!" Wei Jing nodded, and Tao Xiang got up with a tissue and went to the bathroom. "Hey, Lao Gao, Jie Bian'er, Jie Bian'er!" A Tianjin accent from the table behind called out again after a while.Wei Jing didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to look for lotus root from the fragrant pot. Besides meat, she loves lotus root the most.

As soon as Gao Haihe entered the restaurant, he heard Lao Luo's voice, and he strode over.He is the battalion commander of a certain army stationed in Beijing. He has just been transferred from other provincial troops for half a year, but he has achieved remarkable results in training.This time, one of his companies got a good result in the martial arts competition. When he went to the headquarters today, he was stopped by some friends from the same country and insisted on buying a meal. I just found it. "Brothers, I'm sorry, I'm late!" Gao Haihe said with a smile. "Don't use your mouth to apologize, let's get something affordable!" When Lao Luo said this, the people at the table booed, Gao Haihe was also happy, and drank a pint of beer without stuttering. Qiqi applauded, it was very lively.Fortunately, there were not a few tables left in the restaurant, and the waiters didn't care. Only Wei Jing muttered, "Well, he is indeed a soldier, and his voice is bright!"

Tao Xiang, who came back from the bathroom, smiled, and said in a low voice, "This is what the army wants!" Wei Jing rolled her eyes, "You said you like the army so much, and now you want to make a cell phone ringtone or the Bayi Army song, Didn’t the army send you to the military academy? Why are you demobilized again?” Tao Xiang wiped her mouth with a tissue and shrugged her shoulders, “Didn’t I tell you, I’m bored, and I want to go back to Tsinghua University "Pull it down, you haven't told me the truth for so many years, have you?" Wei Jing glared at her, and Tao Xiang glared at her, and touched Wei Jing with his shoulder, "You really want to know? Yeah, please."

Wei Jingpi smiled and said, "Please? Okay..." After speaking, he twisted the back of Tao Xiang's hand with lightning speed, and Tao Xiang withdrew his hand subconsciously. "Ouch!" It doesn't matter if the two had such a fight, the Coke cup was overturned, "Waiter!" Wei Jing called out, and the two little girls hurried over to help clean up. The soldiers at the table behind them were all looking at this side as long as they were in the right direction, and one of them said, "Hey, Xiao Li, you came late just now, I didn't hear that, the guy sitting outside over there is very handsome. The cell phone ringtone used by pretty girls is our August 1st Army song, and it’s the first time I’ve seen a girl use this.” “Really?” Xiao Li also poked his head to see Tao Xiang’s silhouette, and nodded repeatedly, “Really quite gorgeous!"

"Okay, why are you staring at other lesbians? What's so interesting!" Lao Luo said.Several other people laughed, "Chief Luo, you already have a sister-in-law, so of course you're not interested in watching it." Lao Luo cursed with a smile, and then asked Gao Haihe in a low voice, "I forgot to ask you yesterday, when will my siblings come over?" Gao Haihe breathed a sigh of relief, "In two days, there are still things at home, and we can't do without her." Lao Luo nodded, "Come on, come on, the big guys are working hard! You're welcome! Drink!" The officers stood up and clinked glasses, and a dozen beers were poured down their throats.At this time, Wei Jing and the others had almost finished eating. Tao Xiang shook the bill and shouted, "Waiter, check out!" , Tao Xiang was twisting his body to take out his wallet from the schoolbag behind his back, and inadvertently met his eyes... "Hey, Taozi, your bill has gone up!" Wei Jing called out. "Welcome to come next time, please bring your belongings, thank you..." The restaurant waiter opened the door with a smile on his face and sent Wei Jing and Tao Xiang away. "Ah, good," Wei Jing nodded absently, and from the corner of her eye kept looking at the expressionless Tao Xiang.Something is wrong, absolutely something is wrong! As soon as he left the restaurant, Tao Xiang unlocked the remote control car with a sound of "beep" eight feet away.Wei Jing was taken aback, and subconsciously quickened her pace, avoiding that the car lock in front of her was locked again.There is a problem with Tao Xiang's car lock, as if afraid of someone stealing it, if you don't open the door for ten seconds after unlocking it, it will be locked again without saying a word.So usually Tao Xiang only locks the car when he gets to the front, but today... Wei Jing hurried to the front of the car, just reached out to touch the door handle, "beep beep" twice, and it was locked again with a click.Seeing Wei Jing standing by the door staring blankly, Tao Xiang, who was slowly strolling over, let out a "chh", but only half the smile, and the smile disappeared again.Wei Jing knew it in her heart, it seemed that something really happened just now, could it be that among the soldiers there were some acquaintances of Taozi, no, but no one greeted her, Tao Xiang didn't say anything, she paid the bill, turned around and left People, it's just that the smile on her face is gone, and the little girl who collects money thinks that she has made a wrong calculation. "What are you thinking about? Do you want to go?" Tao Xiang, who had already gotten into the car, yelled. "Ah? Here we come," Wei Jing got into the car in response one after another, muttering while fastening her seat belt, "I said, can you fix this broken remote control lock? Just open the lock a little further away, If you don't have Liu Xiang's speed, you won't even be able to get in the car...... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh The lingering sound of Wei Jing's word suddenly increased by an octave, because Tao Xiang tilted the front of the car, shifted gears with a click, and then kicked the accelerator, the car soared to 100 suddenly, and rushed out along the road .Listening to Miss Wei's soprano solo, Tao Xiang jokingly said, "Well, this Jetta car has strength, you always say it is hard and earthy in appearance, but what a car needs is strength! It's fun to drive!" "No matter how powerful it is, you can't use it as a tank! This is the side road of Beijing's Fourth Ring Road, and the prairie can be rounded if it's not your army! Oh, I'm afraid..." Wei Jing couldn't help but swear, Just now Tao Xiang slammed on the brakes and parked the car in the right lane, her forehead almost hit the glass. Fortunately, there were not many cars on the road in the afternoon on Monday, and the few cars in the back were not too tight. After slamming on the brakes, some people honked their horns a few times before driving away, and some turned their heads and stared at them when they drove past. Tao Xiang in the driver's seat glanced a few times, her mouth wriggling, obviously she didn't say anything nice. "I'm sorry, Wei Wei," Tao Xiang whispered after a while when her face returned to normal, and Wei Jing, who came back to her senses, stretched out her hand and patted her leg, "Let's go, you won't be here for a while longer." I should apologize to Uncle Traffic Police!" Wei Jingshun pointed to the camera head on the side of the road, Tao Xiang forced a smile, restarted the car and continued on. This time the car drove much more steadily, Tao Xiang's expression was normal but she didn't say a word, which made the atmosphere in the car a bit depressed, Wei Jing felt a little weird, but after thinking for a long time, she didn't know what to say. In the end, I felt that the lotus root and ribs in my stomach seemed to stand up, a little bit.Seeing that it was not far from Tao Xiang's shop, "Tao Zi, why don't you just leave me in front of your shop, I'll take a taxi and go home," Wei Jing said, turning her head. "Why do we have a car here? Why spend that money? I'll take you back!" Tao Xiang raised her brows. "You pull it down, I think you are too tired today, go back and rest early," Wei Jing said with a smile, Tao Xiang glanced at her and did not speak, still driving in the direction of Wei Jing's house.Wei Jing was at a loss, "Taozi, I don't feel at ease driving in your state, don't let me worry about you when I get home, can you?" Tao Xiang bit her lower lip, and turned the steering wheel in the direction of her storefront.When she got to the door, Wei Jing unbuckled her seat belt and was about to get out of the car. Tao Xiang gave her a hand, "Wei Wei, I'm really sorry I didn't take you home today, but I'm a little annoyed right now... You go home first, and I will compensate you with a big meal another day." Wei Jing turned around and said haha, "It's good to be sympathetic. If you annoy me once, you'll make it up to me. Then you'd better annoy me three meals a day, and I'll save myself a lot of money." "You're so beautiful!" Tao Xiang was amused by her, and Wei Jing got out of the car with a smile. Tao Xiang stood by the side of the road and waited for the taxi with Wei Jing. When Wei Jing got into the car, she bent down and opened the window and said, "Wei Wei, thank you." Knowing that she was thanking herself for not asking more, Wei Jing's heart warmed up, but she still grinned and said, "It's too polite to invite me to dinner and you still say thank you, just don't forget my compensation!" Tao Xiang grinned, "Don't worry, I won't forget you Yes, text me when you get home!" Wei Jing smiled and nodded, waving goodbye. Tao Xiang didn't turn to leave until the taxi disappeared from his sight.She didn't go back to the shop, but walked to the community behind.She bought a two-bedroom house in this community three years ago. At that time, she bought it with a loan, but her parents were not willing. She felt that there was no place to live at home, so why bother to buy a house outside and bear all the debts. Tao Xiang didn't care what her parents thought, and she didn't ask for a penny from the family, so she just gritted her teeth and bought it. Later, she wanted to open a store to start a business, and her parents objected even more.Foreign companies don't work for 20,000 yuan a month, but they have to do it by themselves. There is no way to lose money and make money. What is a girl's fuss about? But now the housing price has doubled several times like a rocket, and Tao Xiang's store business is also booming, and she bought another house for her parents.People around praised Tao Xiang for his vision and ability, and the Tao family couple who lived in the new house didn't say anything, but were a little complacent. After entering the room, Tao Xiang threw off the shoes on her feet, threw herself into the sofa, and stared straight at the perpetual calendar on the coffee table.The words "April 1st" were extremely dazzling, and Tao Xiang closed her eyes fiercely.The day I saw him back then was April 1st, several years had passed, why did I see him again on this day, God would really make fun of me.Tao Xiang couldn't help but smiled wryly, and felt a hot stream gushing out from the corner of her eyes, and when it slowly slid across her face and flowed to her ears, it became cold... "Is Xiao Gao okay?" a colleague asked Lao Luo quietly, and Lao Luo shook his hand, "It's okay, just throw up, you can go back first, and say hello for me." The man nodded, turned and left the toilet.Lao Luo walked to a cubicle and knocked on the door, "Haihe? Are you okay?" "Evil..." There was a sound of vomiting from inside. Lao Luo was thinking whether to go in and see him when he heard the rushing sound. With the sound of water, Gao Haihe walked out, his face was not as rosy as after drinking, but a little pale. "Lao Luo, I'm fine," he waved his hand at Lao Luo, walked to the pool to rinse his mouth, and then splashed water on his face to wake himself up. "Haihe, you drink well in the first place, why did you drink so much today?" Luo Luo was puzzled.Just now Gao Haihe drank like drinking water, no one persuaded him, so he went down after several glasses, and he drank white beer mixed in, and he drank in a hurry, it would be weird if he wasn't drunk. The water in the faucet was rushing, and the cold water stimulated Gao Haihe's nerves. Lao Luo's nagging sound was in his ears, but it seemed that he couldn't hear a word clearly, and only one voice echoed in his mind , "Report, I am Tao Xiang, a soldier of the division's communications company, reporting to you!"
