Chapter 28: Pingback.
New! News! Link! Podcast!
Without asking, Qi Xingchen knows who posted the video - the Chinese girl he exchanged contact information with in Odense last week is a Facebook blogger with millions of followers.
I just didn't realize that the girl's influence was so great that she could spread the video to the extent that even the country knew about it!
"Xingchen is coming!"
Hearing footsteps behind him, Liu Ziyu reached out and touched him on the arm.
Qi Xingchen: "Why are you touching me."
"You're in the news now," Liu Ziyu joked, "you're a big shot!"
Qi Xingchen is all confused: "I perform acrobatics on the street because I want to sell my art for lack of money, and the news broadcast has hardened into a cultural communication, which is really ......."
It's really a shame to be on the receiving end.
"There's nothing cheap about selling art," Bai Ye says, "but there's something noble and rewarding about earning money for one's own labor and giving others spiritual enjoyment at the same time."
"Uh-huh. ......" Qi Xingchen said, still in disbelief.
At that moment, the cell phone suddenly vibrated, it was a phone call with a single word "Jing" in the memo.
Qi Xingchen searches his mind for a moment, but nothing comes up, walks outside, and presses answer.
A gentle male voice entered his ears, "Xingchen, how have you been?"
"...... Quite good," Qi Xingchen thought for a moment and tried, "My cell phone broke some time ago, and now I can't see the memo name, which one are you?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, then it turned into a light laugh, "You're still angry? What a child's temper."
Qi Xingchen froze.
"Okay, it's my fault, I'll come back to China in a while to coax you, okay?"
Getting angry, coaxing you, returning home ...... Memory fragments reassembled and reassembled in my mind, Qi Xingchen remembered.
This man is Liang Jing, the original owner's childhood friend!
In Peaches of the Night, Liang Jing is considered to be one of the more powerful cannon fodder. He is two years older than the original main character, and without having graduated from Harvard Immunology, he has become a close disciple of a Chinese immunology master who is a leading researcher in the field.
Warm personality, superior intelligence, a Jackass-type medical genius.
Also, one of the heroine's suitors.
During a consultation with the heroine's brother, he fell in love at first sight with the kind-hearted heroine. Later, when the heroine's brother suffers from acute kidney failure and faces the desperate situation of having to replace his kidney, he steps forward and donates one of his kidneys to his brother, saving his brother's life.
...... A plot only found in a Pure Pure Ma Lisu novel.
Unfortunately, no matter how noble and selfless one is, one doesn't end up getting rid of the cannon fodder.
Qi Xingchen, guessing the identity of the other party, answered with a couple of aggravated answers. Liang Jing also does not want to pursue this issue, smilingly asked: "You went to Northern Europe a few days ago, why did not you stop by to play with me?"
Half a year ago, Liang Jing was sent to China to conduct research at the Swedish Joint Medical Laboratory. Before that, the original owner and Liang Jing had a fight, the reason for the fight Qi Xingchen can't remember, but only remembered that the fight was very unpleasant.
"I'm going to Denmark to record a program, I have a specific schedule, I can't get away," Qi Xingchen always felt that the tone of the other party was strange, and wanted to hang up quickly, "What do you want to see me about?"
"Nothing," Liang Jing still smiled, "I wanted to ask when you learned acrobatics. I seem to remember that acrobatics requires child skills, and you were too weak and delicate to learn those kinds of skills when you were a child."
From the moment he showed his acrobatics in front of the camera, Qi Xingchen expected to be asked this question, and he had already thought of something to say: "Acrobatics is what I learned after I joined the company, and my singing and dancing strengths are not as good as others, so I can only find another way to do it."
"So your short year ......"
"I practiced harder," Qi Xingchen interrupted, "What, you don't believe me?"
The original owner and Liang Jing have known each other since they were born, often squatting in the same pit after birth to fling mud, sharing Gundam Ultraman with each other, and also competing to see who can pee farther.
After going to school, the original owner's character became more and more rebellious and often fell out with his family. Every time he would sneak into Liang Jing's house, he would eat Liang Jing's food and sleep in Liang Jing's bed, and the two of them could be said to have grown up together.
Later, the Qi family built their own lake villa, but compared to the family, Liang Jing's feelings for the original owner are only more and less. Qi Xingchen so asked, equivalent to put all the problems on the other side.
So Liang Jing could only helplessly say, "Believe, of course I believe you. But ......"
Qi Xingchen raised the hairs on his body, "But what?"
"It's hard to practice acrobatics, if it's hard go home and rest for a while, it's not like the QI family can't afford you, besides you still have me."
Qi Xingchen sighed in relief, he thought he had acted wrongly and Liang Jing had seen the cracks in him.
"Well, I'll think about it," Qi Xingchen responded, "I'm still in the middle of recording over here, so I won't talk to you yet."
"Okay, when I get back."
After hanging up Liang Jing's call, Qi Xingchen didn't wait for Qi Yuji's call to come back seamlessly.
News broadcasts are no better than any other program, families with elderly people love to watch. Qi's father saw it on TV and asked Qi Yuji to call and ask.
Qi Xingchen used the same set of words, making Qi Yuji once again transformed into a calling monster: "So my Xingchen has suffered so much outside, I will let my big brother take you back now, this bitter and tiring star we do not want to be!"
"...... No, I don't feel bitter, boys need to grind more."
After Zhou Yu's incident, he spoke to Qi Yuji in a soft and gentle tone, "And people have to grow up on their own, learn to face the whole world on their own, right?"
"Why are you talking more and more like big brother, smelling like chicken soup ...... By the way Xingchen, I've noticed that you seem to have matured a lot lately, and you're doing things a lot more steadily."
"It's probably the experience of going into the hospital that made me grow up."
Qi Xingchen's voice lowered, not wanting to lie to Qi Yuji. But there are some lies that have to be told, and one wrong step will result in the death of the soul.
Qi Yuji finally broke into a smile and took a deep breath, "Growing up is good, but Xingchen, you don't really have to rush. With us around, you can be a willful child forever."
With us, you can always be a willful child.
Hearing these words, Qi Xingchen's nose instantly turned sour.
When he was young, he looked forward to growing up so that he could protect himself and be free from anyone's bullying.
So much so that you grow up so fast that you forget to experience what it means to be a child and to see the world with a child's perspective.
Qi Xingchen sniffled, and Qi Yuji added, "And, Xingchen, I brought the gifts for dad and brother, tsk tsk tsk."
"Do they like it?"
"I won't tell you, you can see for yourself in your circle of friends."
Qi Xiaoming, Qi's father, and Qi Yunxiao, Qi's elder brother, have been running Qi's business together, and are so busy that they can't send out two circles of friends a year.
Hanging up Qi Yuji phone, Qi Xingchen curiously found out Qi Xiaoming WeChat, and found that the original owner's note to him was the little expression of the monkey covering its ears.
Qi Xingchen : "......"
That's how much he hates his dad nagging him!
When I clicked on Qi Xiaoming's friend circle, there was only a lone front photo without a face on the blank screen.
The camera focuses on the front of his necktie, with the caption: [I wore a tie from my dog to the Davos Forum, and all my partners complimented me on how much more energized I was [laughs] [laughs]].
It's just a tie, it's not a rejuvenation technique, Qi Xingchen couldn't help but laugh along.
Then he opened Qi Yunxiao's circle of friends, notes and Qi Xiaoming have the same flavor.
It's a muffler monkey.
Yunxiao: [The weather is nice [picture]]
The accompanying photo is, naturally, the tie clip Qi Xingchen gave him, and Qi Xingchen rubs the tip of his nose.
Changed their notes to "Dad" and "Brother".
.
Turning to the last task of the second leg, the guests thought it would be difficult, but it turned out that Director Zhao said, "Today's task is very simple, and some of you have already experienced it. That is - go to Xiao Tie's middle school to experience teaching."
Obviously "some people" means Qi Xingchen, who was especially happy the moment he found out about the mission.
Fragrant cakes, sweet and sour tomatoes, and children's eyes thirsty for knowledge ...... Qi Xingchen has already fallen deeply in love with them.
The other guests had also eaten what the children had given them, and all of them felt that the mission was meaningful, so they put on their backpacks and headed for the mission site.
Nearly two bells had passed after walking over rugged goat paths and climbing over rocks that could only be climbed by pulling a wire.
It was hard to get to the Niu Ben School, the class teacher showed the guests around while telling them interesting stories that happened during his more than 10 years of teaching:
"I came to the mission 10 years ago when conditions were much worse than they are now. The students used their own dining tables, which were of different heights. The classroom floor was potholed, and the first time I attended a class, I accidentally tripped and fell."
The class teacher is laughing at these words, but a first out of school college students, from the conditions of the city resolutely come to the countryside, which is difficult and difficult guests can imagine, all the teaching teachers are silent heroes.
There are two classrooms, a playground, and a teacher's dormitory-cum-office in Ben Niu's school, and the tour was over in less than ten minutes. The class manager was ashamed, "It seems like there's nothing more to see, it just so happens that the first class of children are studying, let me take you into the classroom to have a look."
With that, the homeroom teacher pushed open the classroom door, and Qi Xingchen, standing behind the camera, immediately appeared in the children's field of vision.
Kids: "!!!"
"Mr. Xingchen!"
Because of the teacher's lax control, plus they really like this very powerful and good-looking big brother, do not care about self-study or not, "wow" all of a sudden out of the nest.
"Mr. Xingchen, what brings you here?"
"Is it missing us?"
"You asked me to do ten more of the same type of questions along the lines of question three, and I'm done!"
"Don't listen to him, I'm better behaved than he is, I did twenty courses!"
Looking at Qi Xingchen, who was surrounded by students in the center of the room, the class monitor was quite surprised, "Have you met?"
"Okay, okay, you're squeezing me out," Qi Xingchen explained as she calmed the kids down, "I gave them the questions twice."
With no athletics required, the task was made very simple. The guests were divided into the subjects they were to teach and the day's lessons were quickly completed.
In the afternoon, the program team to the time to return home, the children have not yet reached the end of the school time, can not go, can only be bashful lying on the window sill to see Qi Xingchen.
Qi Xingchen doesn't dare to stay longer for fear that the children will cry, smiles, waves his hand, and uses his mouth to tell them to go back to class quickly.
The children, however, broke the rules and didn't listen, and kept looking at him all the time.
When he finally stepped out of the children's view, Bai Ye saw Qi Xingchen keeping his head down and stepped back to his side: "Feeling bad?"
"...... No."
"It's okay, Qianzhou isn't far away, so you can come over to see them often in the future."
"I said I have no hard feelings." Mr. Xingchen has a stiff upper lip.
Bai Ye couldn't help but sigh, the little fan's problem of keeping everything to himself was killing him.
Back to Zeng's home, Qi Xingchen hastily grasped a few mouthfuls of rice to fill his stomach, head into the room. Three hours later, he took a pile of books and hurriedly ran out.
Director Zhao was filming the rest of the guests discussing buying gifts for the raffle, when Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the swift black shadow and hurriedly called out to him, "Xingchen, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to drop something off for Xiao Tie."
"Hua Zi, go talk to Xingchen," Director Zhao shouted to the cameraman, fearing that he might miss a shot.
However, without waiting for Huazi to get up, "Woof woof woof," the big yellow dog suddenly jumped up and barked furiously -
I don't know when, but there were dozens of extra people outside the courtyard.
Some of them carried a bag of pies, some took two jugs of milk, some carried a snakeskin bag of tomatoes ...... The eyes were clear and bright, and all of them had a light reddish tint to them.
Qi Xingchen was suddenly stunned in place, "Teacher, what are you guys doing here?"
"Because they can't give up ......" the classroom teacher touched the tops of the children's heads, "they can't give up their Xingchen teacher."
Qi Xingchen turned his back and wiped his eyes.
"What's there to give up." He turned back around and smiled, "You're not the only ones with presents, I've got one too."
After a pause, he raised the book in his hand, "These are the questions you've asked me recently, I've organized them by type. It is required to be read within ten days, and I will ask Xiao Tie to spot-check at any time."
"Yes, Mr. Xingchen!" The children shouted in unison with tears in their eyes, "You must spot-check, and you mustn't forget us!"
In the face of such a scene, everyone in the courtyard was moved. Bai Ye went over to Qi Xingchen, patted his shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Xingchen, can we give the children another song?"
Qi Xingchen knew that he didn't want the children to burst into tears, which would be even more shedding and difficult, "Okay, what's the song?"
"Sing an old song."
Bai Ye clears his throat, "Never mind how it will end at least we were together once ......"
Everyone in the yard, from Ceng Er, who was in his fifties, down to the teenage dolls, chorused in unison:
"As long as we have been together, that is enough for you and me;
There are many memories in a person's life, I just wish there is a me in your remembrance ......"
