Chapter 36 Qu Bai
Qu Bai and Chi Xia have known each other for a long time.
When Chi Xia was in high school, Qu Bai studied in her class for half a semester and sat in front of and behind Chi Xia. He was polite, gentle, and handsome, and became a popular figure in the school as soon as he entered school.
After half a semester, Qu Bai returned to his original school, and they gradually lost contact.
The reason why Chi Xia was able to recognize Qu Bai after such a long time was entirely because Qu Bai was handsome and Chi Xia was deeply impressed.
Secondly, Chi Xia remembered that Qu Bai had a mole on the tip of his nose, and she recognized it at a glance.
Qu Bai looked at Chi Xia seriously and recognized her. He was very surprised: "Chi Xia? It's you? You... weren't you in Qincheng? Why are you back?"
Chi Xia smiled and patted the dirt off his arms: "I just came back two days ago."
Seeing Luo Xun, she felt a little guilty and quickly introduced herself to Qu Bai: "My boss, Luo Xun. Oh, by the way, I work at the Dongzhou Police Department now."
Qu Bai was very polite. He nodded towards Luo Xun and stretched out his hand to shake his hand: "Captain Luo... is very... very different..."
Luo Xun really couldn't see that his words were meant to make fun of him, so he shook his hand and said, "Nice to meet you."
Qu Bai is really handsome, Luo Xun sighed for the second time. How should I put it? This man's appearance is superior to that of girls , but there is no feminine quality in him. Instead, he has the elegance and character of a scholar.
When he bent down to shake hands with him, Luo Xun could feel the elegance of this man even more.
He is gentle, has a strong character, and one can tell at first glance that he is a unique man. Luo Xun can see openness in his eyes, which is very rare.
In short, it feels like something out of a novel.
Chi Xia focused his attention on the person Luo Xun had caught. He pointed at the man and said, "Captain Luo, what should we do with this man?"
When the man heard this, he acted drunk again: "I'm just drunk, go ahead and arrest me, I don't know anything!"
"Send him to the police station."
Qu Bai suggested: "Although they smell of alcohol, it doesn't mean they are drunk. The few people who ran away just now didn't look drunk."
"Okay." Considering that Qu Bai was present, Luo Xun did not ask Chi Xia on the spot.
"Chi Xia, are you injured?" Qu Bai suddenly saw Chi Xia's back. She was wearing a light-colored dress when she went out, and it was now soaked in blood.
"The wound has split open, it's okay."
Chi Xia smiled at him, and when he lowered his head, he saw a large bloodstain on his hand: "Qu Bai, are you injured too? Those people just now..."
Chi Xia remembered that the leader had a dagger in his hand.
Qu Bai raised his arm: "The man just now had a knife in his hand. Maybe I got cut when I was trying to stop him. Let's put it this way..."
He thought for a moment and looked at Luo Xun: "Captain Luo, I'll take Chi Xia to the hospital, and you take people to the police station. I'll be here with Chi Xia, so you don't have to worry."
"It's the only way."
Luo Xun pulled the man he had caught: "You go to the hospital first, I'll come over later."
Chi Xia said hesitantly: "Captain Luo, you don't have to come, it's nothing serious..."
Luo Xun gave Chi Xia a direct look, and Chi Xia closed his mouth and said, "Okay then."
She was extremely reluctant, but Luo Xun felt a little better when he saw her like this.
As soon as Luo Xun left, Qu Bai immediately took Chi Xia to the nearest hospital. Regardless of the fact that the wound on his hand was quite large, he waited until Chi Xia was fine before bandaging it.
When he came out after being bandaged, Chi Xia was sitting on a chair outside answering a call from Luo Xun.
Seeing him coming out, Chi Xia smiled and waved at him.
When she smiles, her eyes narrow and the corners of her eyes slightly curl up, like a little fox.
He walked over and Chi Xia just hung up the phone.
"I didn't expect to see you here ." The window was facing the wind, and Qu Bai put his coat on Chi Xia: "Does the wound still hurt?"
"It hurts a little, but it's not a big problem." There was a nice smell on his clothes, and Chi Xia liked it very much: "Your perfume smells good."
Qu Bai was startled, then reacted: "Thank you."
His hands were very nice, with long and distinct knuckles and round and full nails, but one of them was wrapped in gauze. Chi Xia felt a little embarrassed: "It must be painful."
Qu Bai lifted it up and looked at it, then smiled and said, "It hurts a little, but it's not a big problem."
As soon as he finished speaking, they both laughed.
"Feel inside your pocket." After laughing, Qu Bai suddenly remembered something and said mysteriously.
Chi Xia looked at him curiously: "Why?"
"There's a surprise." Qu Bai raised his chin.
Chi Xia touched his clothes pocket doubtfully, but couldn't find the left one, so he touched the right one.
She took out a lollipop.
"Lychee flavor." Chi Xia smiled, her eyes shining.
"Do you like lychees?" Qu Bai also smiled.
"I like to eat lychees, but I don't like to peel them." Chi Xia shook the candy: "Do you want to eat it?"
Qu Bai smiled lightly: "I don't eat sweet food, I'll give it to you."
Chixia peels off the sugar coating and the sweetness spreads in your mouth.
Qu Bai laughed at her again: "You look like this, don't you also dislike peeling shrimps?"
Chi Xia shook her head: "Shrimp tastes better if you peel them yourself. I quite like peeling them."
She wrinkled her nose slightly, looking quirky and clever.
The two chatted casually, and not long after, Luo Xun came. Seeing that they were all fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing him coming, Qu Bai and Chi Xia, who were chatting and laughing, stopped laughing. Luo Xun thought, did he come here to disturb them from reminiscing about the past?
"The person has been locked up. If you two are okay, you can go back and rest." Luo Xun said.
Qu Bai looked at the time: "It's already this late, my bar is nearby, do you want to..."
He suddenly laughed when he said this: "Have a cup of tea. You still have to go to work tomorrow, so you can't drink. It's very close, just around the corner."
Neither Luo Xun nor Chi Xia could think of any words to refuse this.
Chi Xia looked at Luo Xun very consciously and asked for his opinion.
"Then let's have a drink." Luo Xun said, "Just don't disturb you."
"Don't disturb." Qu Bai led the way.
The name of Qu Bai's bar is very interesting, it is called "Waiting for Others."
When they saw the plaque, Chi Xia and Luo Xun both stopped and said, "This name is interesting."
"I just made it up." Qu Bai smiled and made a gesture of invitation: "We are just closing time, I won't disturb you."
The three of them walked in. There were only a few waiters cleaning up the bar. Qu Bai said to a cleaner at the bar, "Uncle Gen, give me three cups of the sleeping soup you always make for me."
Chi Xia and Luo Xun then noticed that the man Qu Bai was calling looked to be in his fifties.
"Okay." Uncle Gen smiled and walked to the bar.
Qu Bai explained, "Uncle Gen's son disappeared eighteen years ago and later came to Dongzhou. His life was not easy, so he has been helping me ever since. I thought if I give you tea now, you will be even more unable to sleep. Uncle Gen has a unique recipe. He has a soup that is very good for treating insomnia. You can try it."
The three of them sat at the bar, and Luo Xun followed up the topic and asked, "Uncle Gen, have you found your son? Have you reported the case to the police?"
Uncle Gen turned his back to them and said, "Report it. I've been looking for it for more than ten years, but there is no result."
He had prepared the sleeping soup in advance, and had already prepared a cup. When he took it, he saw the gauze on Qu Bai's hand, and his face changed: "What happened to you? Are you injured? What happened?"
"It's okay to meet a few hooligans." Qu Bai gave the first glass of water to Chi Xia: "Try it? "
Chi Xia smelled it and found it had a medicinal smell, but it was not unpleasant.
Uncle Gen made two more cups in a row. Qu Bai drank them all in one gulp and pushed the cup over again: "I need two cups before I can fall asleep."
Chi Xia and Luo Xun tasted it one after another. Although it had a medicinal taste, it was indeed very delicious. Chi Xia even drank another glass.
"It's getting late. After drinking the sleeping soup, you should go back to bed."
Qu Bai didn't keep anyone around and looked at Chi Xia: "Let's make an appointment when we have time."
Chi Xia nodded: "Okay."
"I'll take you back." Luo Xun looked at Chi Xia and said.
"No need, Captain Luo. My home is very close to here and it's getting late. You should go back as well." Chi Xia waved at the two of them and walked away on his own.
After walking two steps, he came back and returned Qu Bai's clothes: "I almost forgot, I'm returning your clothes."
Qu Bai smiled and didn't insist that she put it back on.
She was quite cool and Luo Xun laughed out of anger.
