Rebirth: Starting from Saving the Desperate Girl

Chapter 182 Dating
October 3.

After a light rain last night, the sky finally cleared up.

Chen Xi got up very early that day, holding the clothes he had picked out earlier, and knocked on Chen An's bedroom door.

"Why do I feel like you care more about my date than I do?"

Chen An half leaned against the door and asked in some confusion.

Originally, he just wanted to treat Li Qingyue to a meal, but because of a conversation with his sister on the way home a few days ago, he was forced to embark on the path of a 'date'.

At that time, Chen Xi asked him if he was going to date a girl, and Chen An agreed to her request, intending to see his sister's reaction.

Who knew it would turn out like this...

"This is about my brother's lifelong event. Is there anything wrong with me paying attention?"

The girl asked back. She squeezed in with clothes in her arms. Her snow-white hair brushed against Chen An's neck, and a faint scent of soapberry permeated over him.

"It's not that exaggerated..."

"Why, does Brother want to be that kind of indecisive man?"

"Do not……"

"So you want to trick Sister Qingyue into getting your hands on her first, and then ruthlessly abandon her?"

"No...what are you talking about? How could I lie to you?"

"Oh, so you just want to abandon me mercilessly."

"..."

The early morning conversation ended with Chen An speechless.

I don’t know what’s going on, but whenever the girl talks about related topics recently, she becomes extremely angry.

After bringing the clothes, Chen Xi left quickly and ran to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the two of them.

In the past, this was basically done by Chen An. Later, when her skills improved, she often clamored to make "love breakfast".

In fact, no matter how you look at it, this should be a very perfect touch, right?
Now even the slightly morbid desire for control that he had before has gradually disappeared.

It's always moving in a good direction...

Chen An stroked his chin and turned back to his room.

When he appeared again, he had changed his clothes.

I have to say that Chen Xi's vision is indeed good.

The light green cotton and linen shirt serves as an early autumn coat, with a simple white T-shirt inside and loose white and gray trousers on the lower body. The overall look is particularly refreshing.

And probably because of the exercise he had been doing since he was a child, Chen An has always had a good figure, with tall and broad shoulders and a height of 1.8 meters. No matter what clothes he wears, they will not look out of place on him.

In addition to the subtle temperament revealed in his eyes and eyebrows, it would be very difficult to make him look ugly.

"Come and eat noodles, don't be so conceited, brother."

……

at the same time.

"Dad, I'm going out."

Li Qingyue opened the door, turned around and shouted towards the kitchen.

A middle-aged man with a spatula in his hand and an apron tied around his waist came out.

He looked at his daughter, who was obviously dressed up carefully. She was even wearing the small floral dress that her mother gave her for her birthday last year.

You know, she always treated this skirt as a treasure and kept it well in her closet. She didn't even take it out and wear it during the Chinese New Year.

"Where are you going?"

Li Zhenbang wiped his hands on his apron and asked a question.

"Go out and play...oh dad, just leave it alone."

After Li Qingyue finished speaking, she wanted to close the door.

But she suddenly thought of something, smiled sweetly again, and poked half of her head out from behind the door.

"Dad, give me some money."

When the man heard this, he was shocked.

Immediately, he turned stern and said, "No, unless you tell me where you are going."

"Hey, give it to me, give it to me."

Under the coquettish voice of this leaky little cotton jacket, this middle-aged man, who was at least a leader of some importance in the outside world, coughed twice and quickly gave up.

"Okay, give it to me."

"Hey, thanks, Dad."

Having successfully obtained a huge sum of money, the girl happily stuffed it into her small bag and then closed the door with a snap.

"Wait a minute... Hey you girl, I haven't finished talking yet."

"Remember to come back early."

There was no answer at all.

The man was left alone, disheveled in the wind.

……

……

On the third day of the long holiday, people's festive mood eased a little.

Although there were certainly more people on the streets than usual, it was not as exciting as the first day. It is said that on the first night, the Bund was completely blocked and all you could see was people following the crowd.

Chen An stayed at home until nine in the morning and stepped out on time.

The agreed meeting time was 9:45, and the meeting place was only four bus stops away from home, which was more than enough time to go out.

He didn't look back, nor did he bring anything extra with him, just a necessary cell phone in his trouser pocket.

Therefore, he did not know that on the high-rise balcony behind him, the girl was holding the railing, staring at his back as he walked away.

The morning breeze blew up the long silver hair, and then slowly fell down.

Under the clear blue sky, there was no expression on the girl's face.

It was like going back to many years ago, to the girl in the black dress who sat in a wheelchair, often watching the world in silence and coldly.

A moment later, the rapid ringing of a cell phone broke the scene.

A slightly hesitant female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Xixi, isn't it a bit bad for us to do this?"

"It doesn't matter. If you don't want to come, then you don't have to come. Just keep it a secret for me."

Hearing this, Su Ke quickly shook his head.

"That's not what I meant... I just think that it was okay for us to just act foolishly when we were little, but now we're tracking and monitoring each other. If your brother finds out, he'll definitely hate us."

"Of course I don't mind, I'm mainly afraid of you..."

Faced with the worry of this long-time friend, Chen Xi remained silent for a while, and finally just whispered that it was okay.

……

The meeting place was set at a bus stop.

This place is just close to Chen An’s home and Li Qingyue’s home.

"The next stop is Sunshine Kindergarten."

As the electronic female voice sounded, Chen An followed the crowd and slowly got out of the car.

He took out his cell phone and checked the time. It was just past 9:20, and there was still plenty of time left before the time they had agreed on.

As he was thinking this, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared before him at the moment when the crowd dispersed.

That was a young girl.

She was carrying a small, light pink bag, and she had probably been there for a while, so she didn't stand but sat on the two iron pipes under the platform.

She lowered her head slightly, her neatly combed long hair tied up with a black rubber band, and her floral dress rippled gently in the breeze.

Although he sees him every day at school, at this moment Chen An still has the illusion that he has recognized the wrong person.

Although he didn't know where this illusion came from.

Just like he once thought that after living two lives, it would be difficult for him to be moved by a little girl like this again.

"How long have you been here?"

Walking forward, the boy's clear voice woke up the girl who was still 'catching up on her sleep'.

"what……"

The girl in the floral dress rubbed her eyes in confusion, then suddenly realized something and stood up quickly.

Seeing that it was Chen An, she smiled, and that smile had a bit of shyness and timidity that was unique to people of this age.

"It hasn't been long since I came here..."

The girl muttered softly.

Just at this moment, the bus with the sign 202 slowly stopped at the platform.

Chen An waved at her.

"Let's go, let's go up first."

Li Qingyue nodded obediently and followed him.

After getting in the car, Chen An took out four coins from his pocket and put them in one by one in front of the driver. He also pointed at Li Qingyue behind him, meaning that he was paying for the two people.

But perhaps it was this small action of his that attracted the driver's attention.

The unshaven uncle suddenly looked over and said to Chen An, "I saw this girl sitting here when I took my first bus this morning. You... please be nice to her."

Chen An was startled when he heard this. Just as he was about to turn around, he felt someone gently grabbing his sleeve.

"Let's go."

The girl blushed slightly and urged him to move forward.

Thinking that there were passengers queuing up at the back waiting to get on the bus, Chen An led her inside, walked to the back row, and found a seat by the window.

The two sat down and remained silent for a while.

The bus started slowly, and the streets outside the window gradually became blurred from clear.

Chen An tilted his head and looked at the girl's pale pink profile - probably because the driver's words had exposed her lie that she 'hadn't been here long', so she didn't dare to face Chen An again, and just stared out the window, as if something magical was happening outside the window.

Chen An looked at her quietly for a while. Somehow, he suddenly thought that today was really an incompetent date.

It was so incompetent that there was no formal invitation, no specific itinerary, and no carefully prepared meeting gift.

Even the destination he was going to now was just a temporary choice he made when he took the bus.

He just casually said that to the girl, and she came happily.
