Extra: Nana's desire for knowledge
Before the Chinese New Year, Ade bought a ticket to Xining, Qinghai, and booked a homestay without telling anyone.
On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Qu Bai was already in a meeting at the company. Ade skipped work and went to the manor, where Chi Xia and Luo Xun were already waiting.
Chi Xia sat cross-legged on the carpet peeling a red pomelo, while Luo Xun was picking up the crumbs that she accidentally made.
Seeing Ade, Chi Xia glared at him first: "You know how difficult it is for the two of us to take a week off. Unless you say you want to get married, we're not done with this."
Ade smiled and clicked on two plane tickets on the tablet.
Chi Xia and Luo Xun looked at each other in confusion, and asked in unison: "What do you mean, using plane tickets to bribe the police?"
Ade made a disdainful sound and flipped two pages. It was flight information again, all departing tomorrow.
Heizi, Xiezi, Ge Jingyi, Huang Xujie, Yang Shujun, Ling Nan...
Chi Xia and Luo Xun saw everyone's names and took a closer look at the tickets, which were from Dongzhou to Xining.
The two asked again: "What do you want to do?"
Ade's eyes seemed to be shining: "Go to Qinghai and watch the community fire. If you are lucky, you can also watch the Buddha Sunbathing Festival in Ta'er Temple."
While Chi Xia was still frowning, Ade said, " I have also made arrangements for the group from Qincheng. They will depart directly from Qincheng tomorrow and meet up with us in Xining. They will stay in the same B&B. I have prepared everything."
Luo Xun said, "Lao Lin's grandfather once said that the best Chinese festivals are held in Qinghai, and the best festivals in Qinghai are held in Huangzhong. It's very impressive. He has seen it before."
Somehow, Ade's eyes suddenly changed, and Chi Xia keenly noticed his change: "Tell the truth."
Ade glanced at her and said, "My hometown is in Qinghai."
Chi Xia frowned and said, "Did you find out? Where in Qinghai?"
Ah De shook his head and smiled. "I didn't investigate further. There's no point in investigating. It's good enough to know where the root is. I went there before the Chinese New Year. An old man said that watching the community fire is the best way to celebrate the Chinese New Year. It's very lively there. I want you to accompany me to take a look."
Chi Xia was inexplicably saddened by his words, and immediately poked Luo Xun's arm: "Luo Xun, I'll contact the elders, and you contact Heizi and the others. No matter what, put it aside for now, and let's go to Qinghai for a trip first."
Luo Xun said yes, and just as he stood up, he heard Ade say, "If they don't want to, just tell them about my rough life experience and attack them mentally."
Luo Xun was stunned for a moment, and asked him sincerely: "When I first met you, you were really aloof. You are not like this anymore. What changed you?"
Ade thought about this question seriously, and then pointed at Chi Xia seriously: "I've been with her for a long time."
Chi Xia: ???
Luo Xun looked at Chi Xia, suddenly smiled, and nodded in agreement: "That makes sense."
Chi Xia: ????
…
When Chi Xia and Luo Xun contacted everyone, Qu Bai also came back from get off work.
No one knew where Ade had gone. When Qu Bai was changing his shoes, Chi Xia had already run up to him to complain.
"Brother, you don't know, that kid Ade neglected his duties. He skipped work today. You have to deduct his salary. How can he behave like this at such a young age? I work hard every day and go to work on time. Sometimes I have to work overtime and stay up all night. But he can leave work early and go to work at 10 o'clock every day. I am really jealous."
Qu Bai walked forward, laughing tremblingly: "How jealous?"
Chi Xia clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "I'm crazy with jealousy!"
Qu Bai greeted Luo Xun and motioned them to sit down. He looked around again and didn't see Ade before saying, "I already knew that he wanted to go to Qinghai. Otherwise, do you think I would give him the opportunity to skip work? That's his hometown. Just let him be happy."
Chi Xia sighed and rolled her eyes: "It's boring. Why don't you act well? Am I the kind of person who doesn't love him? Would I be jealous of him? Of course not!"
Luo Xun said quietly, "Last week I seemed to hear you telling Lao Lin that there's a big guy at home who's very idle. He sleeps until 10 o'clock every day and doesn't work properly. Tell Lao Lin to find him if he needs any help. Don't be polite. Tell him your name and make it sound pitiful so that this big guy won't be able to refuse."
Qu Bai burst into laughter and was very happy watching the couple opposite him flirting with each other.
After watching the excitement, he spoke up: "Song Yanci might go too."
Chi Xia and Luo Xun were both curious. Chi Xia asked, "Brother, when did you get to know Senior Brother Song?"
"I came back to introduce it."
Qu Bai explained: "He has a public welfare organization specifically for the work and life of the families of drug enforcement officers. I joined in the name of you and Luo Xun. This is a good thing. The bigger the team, the better."
He paused, not knowing what he was thinking about, and then smiled: "They are all rich people, so they became familiar with each other after a while. His wife lived in Qinghai for a period of time, and she is currently on a mission there. It's just in time for him to go with us."
Luo Xun didn't know what he was thinking of, and he smiled and continued Qu Bai's words: "It must be Senior Sister Gu who didn't let him go, otherwise, with his level, he would have flown over eight times to watch the festival with us. This is a good excuse. He can even say that he was forced to go even if he was beaten."
Chi Xia was actually not very familiar with this Senior Sister Gu and was very curious about her: "Senior Brother Song doesn't look like someone who would get beaten, right? Senior Sister Gu is so powerful?"
Luo Xun laughed again: "Then do you know that our Senior Brother Song and Senior Sister Gu are in a sister-brother relationship? Senior Brother Song fell in love with her at first sight and tried every possible means to win her over, almost even risking his life."
Chi Xia had already moved in front of Luo Xun, with a look of curiosity on his face: "Tell me in detail."
Luo Xun laughed: "We have to pack our bags, you can go ask Brother Song in person."
Chi Xia shook his head without even thinking: "I don't dare, you tell me."
Luo Xun: "Then the luggage..."
Qu Bai refilled his cup with tea and pointed at him: "The luggage is not important. You tell me, I want to listen too."
Luo Xun: "It's not good to be ?"
Qu Bai also sat next to Chi Xia and stuffed grapefruits into their hands: "I know partners, and you two know comrades and brothers. Isn't this great?"
Luo Xun: "I think it makes sense..."
