Beyond the Noisy World: The Long Lost Eight Sects: 021, mysterious visitor


lnmao.org, the fastest update outside: the latest chapters of the eight disappeared!

Ding Qi immediately thought that the access control of the dormitory building was broken, and it could be opened with a hard push. It seemed that someone had come up directly. The mentor's family is in the United States. Ding Qi can't remember who else would come to him. When he opened the door, he was surprised and delighted. It was actually the second son of the university dormitory Tian Rongping.

Tian Rongping was also taken aback when he saw Ding Qi, and opened his mouth wide and said: "Xiao Qi, you are dressed up in good spirits, where are you going to pay New Year's greetings?"

Ding Qi just shaved his beard, put on some skin cream, and combed his hair neatly. Although he did not buy new clothes during the Chinese New Year, he wore very neat and tidy clothes. Tian Rong Pingyuan thought that Ding Qi would look like a decadent and upset, but the contrast between them was so great that he was so surprised. In fact, he was three hours late, and Ding Qi had already packed himself and his house.

Ding Qi was also surprised: "The second child, early on the first day of the new year, if you don't stay at home, why come here?"

Tian Rongping exaggeratedly exclaimed: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, go out for New Year's greetings. I will be the first one to come to you! ... How many times have you said it, don't call it the second child!"

Ding Qi smiled and said: "Second brother, come in!...Why don't you have any new year's goods for New Year's greetings? Anyway, I also bring two tubes of sesame cakes."

Tian Rongping went into the room and sat on the bed and said, "Second brother is not good, I have such a big head and big ears...what is sesame cake?"

The sesame cake is a traditional pastry, similar in shape and size to moon cakes. Most of them are made of lard and noodles. There are rock sugar fillings and five-core fillings, with a layer of sesame on the outside. This is a very old, earthy, and traditional dim sum, and it is not delicious for children nowadays.

It is said that Qi Baishi’s living room table has a plate of sesame cakes that serve guests all the year round. I don’t know how long it has been. It feels like a bang. Not one of the guests can eat it. Behave.

When Ding Qi was very young, when relatives walked around during the New Year, there were snacks such as hemp cakes, not in boxes, but rolled into a tube with white paper, a tube of ten cakes. After growing up, I rarely see this kind of thing. It is a childhood memory.

Ding Qi recently read a lot of books in the library, and occasionally saw someone mention the living room of Qi Baishi's house, which awakened the memories of Chinese New Year when he was a child, and said it inadvertently. He pulled the chair and sat down, and talked with Tian Rongping about the "sesame cake" allusion, making Tian Rongping amused.

Tian Rongping took out a kraft paper bag from his shoulder bag and handed it to Ding Qi, "Although I didn't bring sesame cakes, but I didn't come empty-handed. This is the New Year's money for you. Get it soon!"

Ding Qi took the paper bag and opened it and took a look. After a few seconds, Ding Qi was stunned. Inside was a neatly tied 50,000 cash. Electronic transfers are very convenient these years, but Tian Rongping deliberately took out the cash and brought it. He looked up and said: "Second brother, are you here to pay back the money? I'm not in a hurry, why bother to make a special trip on the first day of the new year!"

Tian Rongping grinned and said: "I have it on hand now, of course I have to pay you back first. You must need it more than I do."

Ding Qi has already reacted at this moment. Tian Rongping must have heard of what happened to him, thinking that he is now impoverished, so he quickly raised money to pay back the 50,000 he owed him. Ding Qi shook his head and said: "Second brother, in fact, I am not short of money. I just won the 100,000 year-end bonus before the holiday!"

Ding Qi was telling the truth. The Mental Health Center really gave him a year-end award of 100,000. This was won by Zhong Dafang and he cited various reasons during internal discussions. At that time, Liu Feng was already in the United States, and when he received the year-end bonus distribution plan, Liu Feng approved it without suggesting any amendments. Anyway, Zhong Dafang was willing to do so, and Liu Feng, who was in charge of the final decision, was willing to do so.

Tian Rongping widened his eyes and said: "There are so many year-end awards? Nonsense, you are not being..."

He wanted to say something and stopped, Ding Qi smiled and said: "I was indeed fired, but I worked for more than ten months before I was fired, and the year-end bonus also counts."

Tian Rongping: "There are so many in ten months, really a good company! What was your year-end award last year?"

Ding Qi: "Last year, fifty thousand, this year is double that of last year. After all, it's because I have a good leader, it's so humane!"

Tian Rongping: "Really?"

Ding Qi: "Really, I didn't lie to you!"

Tian Rongping: "I am a little envious of you. Our company's year-end bonus this year is to pay two more months of salary, which adds up to more than 10,000."

Ding Qi: "I rushed to pay back the money on the first day of the new year, do you regret it now?"

Tian Rongping hurriedly waved his hand and said, "That's not true. I have it on hand now, so I will pay it back as soon as possible."

Ding Qi: "I didn't receive the invitation for your marriage, and didn't even give me money. Today you invited me to have a drink alone, and I can just make up the gift money!"

Tian Rongping asked him to borrow money last time to get married and renovate his new house. As a result, Ding Qi had an accident that day. Later, he did not receive Tian Rongping's wedding invitation. It is estimated that Tian Rongping also knew what happened to him, so he didn't come to bother. Ding Qi had forgotten this at all, and only remembered it when he saw Tian Rongping at this moment.

Unexpectedly, Tian Rongping waved his hand: "Don't mention any gift money, the marriage has not been completed!"

Ding Qi was surprised: "What is going on, isn't even the new house decorated?"

Tian Rongping: "Stop talking here, I invite you to go out for a drink and chat while eating."

Ding Qi: "How can a restaurant open on New Year's Day?"

Tian Rongping: "Look at what you don't know, you didn't celebrate the New Year in a big city like our Jinghu? Don't talk about New Year's Day, and restaurants open on the 30th night!"

Ding Qi whispered: "The school cafeteria does not open anyway. You still don't know about sesame cakes!"

Ding Qi has lived in Jinghu City for seven and a half years since he went to college, but he did not spend the New Year here. Since the Spring Festival when he was 18 years old, he spent the years at his hometown uncle's house, and did not return to school until the beginning of the winter vacation. In the rural town of my hometown, there are no restaurants to open before the eighth day of the day, but the old rule in the early years was to open the door on the fifth day.

Jinghu City is different. Although many food stalls and small restaurants are closed during the Spring Festival, there are also many big restaurants that are open during the New Year holidays. Many people eat in restaurants on the Lunar New Year's Eve. Although the price is more expensive, it is convenient and worry-free, and it is also suitable for young couples to call their parents to have a New Year's Eve dinner together.

Walking out of the school, passing through a large shopping mall, I found a restaurant that was still open, and they ate and chatted in the lobby. The two chatted until more than two o'clock in the afternoon.

Tian Rongping’s objects were met on blind dates, and they thought it was appropriate for each other, and then they came to the stage of talking about marriage, especially Tian Rongping’s parents were particularly concerned. The woman proposed that the man should have his own house and the young couple would not live with their in-laws after marriage. Tian Rongping's parents agreed and bought a house for Tian Rongping.

The woman also proposed to decorate the house first, and the man was responsible for paying the money. The Tian family also agreed. At this time, the family's savings were no longer enough, and Tian Rongping also asked Ding Qi to borrow 50,000 yuan.

The house has been decorated and the restaurant for the wedding banquet has been found. Tian Rongping even paid the deposit for the wedding banquet, and the wedding will be held in one week. At this time, the woman made another request. Originally, the woman's parents said that they would not want the bride price, but suddenly they changed their minds that it was not easy for the daughter to raise it so much.

Speaking of this, Ding Qi poured himself and said: "One hundred thousand is not too much. The most important thing is that you have already invested so that you will achieve your goal. It shouldn’t be because of this requirement that you won’t get married. ? Even if you are not happy, your parents will agree."

Tian Rongping shook his glass and said: "Don't talk to me about psychology, I know everything! The point is that you have backtracked over there and said yes, but when things happen, they suddenly ask for this request, which makes people caught off guard. You are right. , My parents may endure their grandson in a hurry, but I feel unbearable.

My parents have worked so hard all their lives. They used up all their savings to get married for me and have to borrow money. How can I bear the heart of being a son? If you want to borrow, I have to borrow it myself, and the couple will pay it back together in the future! I won't talk about this, and what is more terrible is another request. I absolutely cannot agree to it, and my parents also do not agree to it. "

Ding Qi asked slowly: "Is the woman's name written on the real estate certificate?"

Tian Rongping: "How did you know?"

Ding Qi: "It’s an old routine, do you really think I’m not in sight? If you really care about each other, it’s just because of love and selflessness, it’s okay to write each other’s name. In fact, sometimes we don’t want to. The deep reason is that I didn’t see it, and the feelings have not yet reached that point."

Tian Rongping snorted coldly: "Listen carefully, instead of adding her name on the real estate certificate, it was changed to her name. There is no my name, only her name! She says she doesn’t agree. If you don’t get married, then I won’t end it. The banquet has been set, and the paid deposit can only be refunded by half, so I will accept it."

Ding Qi put down the cup in a bit of amazement, and paused for a moment before saying, “I don’t like malicious assumptions about others. A strong sense of insecurity and cognitive impairment, she will..."

Tian Rong shook his head straight and said: "You are really gentle and polite! You don't have to use such a professional tone. You are no longer a doctor, and I am not here to find someone to diagnose her. She is sick. Let’s get sick. Let’s stop talking about it, come and drink! Why do husbands suffer from wifelessness, where there is no fragrant grass, stay in the green hills and look for them slowly, and wherever they fall..."

When the wine reached the heart, and what he said unconsciously became casual, Tian Rongping suddenly asked: "Are you and Jiajia also broke up?" If it wasn't for the alcohol to drink, he wouldn't mention this kind of thing. of.

Ding Qi nodded lightly and said: "We have broken up, it is not suitable for us."

How did Ding Qi and Jiajia break up? No one can tell the process, and no one even took the initiative to mention it. It seems to have happened so naturally, gradually drifting away in the past few months, until it is no longer a lover relationship.

Ding Qi did not contact Jiajia during the few days of the accident. Later, Jiajia took the initiative to contact him to express his concerns and concerns. Maybe it was because there were too many things, maybe it was in a bad mood. Ding Qi didn't pay attention to Jiajia as he used to, and the contact became less and less, and the feelings seemed to be more and more alienated.

Later Jiajia told him that he was going to the United States for the New Year. Ding Qi wished her a good time and reminded her to be safe. Later Jiajia told him that she planned to study in the United States, and Ding Qi sent a blessing...

I think Liu Feng didn’t interfere when he and Jiajia got closer, but today he and Jiajia are getting further away. Liu Feng also didn’t say anything, maybe he can’t say anything, everything happened. It's all plain, no one even needs to say that they broke up.

Ding Qi was recalling, Tian Rongping brought his head over again and asked in a low voice: "Do you hate her?"

Ding Qi looked at the wine glass in his hand and said, "Hate her? Why hate her? No, I don't hate her at all, and I shouldn't hate her at all. I only thank her. She accompanied me in my life. The past three years have given me too many wonderful times.

She is not my enemy, and she has no promises or responsibilities to me, and she has not shown anything to me. She just gave me a lot and gave me what I didn’t have. It’s what I want, what I lack, and I am very I want..."

Tian Rongping interrupted him and said: "I really can't stand your parallelism! But you are right, such a beautiful girl, the daughter of Professor Liu Fengda, has been with you for three years and made you sleep in vain. In three years, how about you will only take advantage and not suffer..."

Ding Qi hurriedly raised his glass and said: "Stop, stop me! Drink the bar quickly and plug your stinky mouth."

Tian Rongping drank a cup and said: "Your heart is really big enough."

Ding Qi: "Otherwise?"

Tian Rongping was startled: "Yeah, what else? Why do you have so many negative emotions, it will only make yourself unhappy!"

The drink was dizzy, but Ding Qi did not vomit, and of course there were no fragments, but when he went back, his steps were a little erratic, and he had to hold the handrails to walk steadily when he went upstairs.

The next morning, Ding Qi only got up at nine o'clock. Just after washing up, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. On the second day of the new year, who came to him again? When I opened the door, I couldn't help but be stunned. It was actually Liu Guonan.

Liu Guonan was wearing a slim-fit hooded mink-collar woolen fleece trench coat today with light make-up. The pure black furry collar set off his face very white and tender. As soon as she saw Ding Qi, she bowed her head timidly and said: "Ding, good Doctor Ding! I'm here to pay you a New Year's greeting. The door downstairs was opened without pushing your hand, and I came up."

Ding Qi didn't say much, he just nodded and said, "Come in and sit down!" He pulled out the only chair and sat on the bed.

After sitting down, Liu Guonan lowered his head and touched his right hand with his left hand. Ding Qi asked: "How do you know I live here?"

Liu Guonan: "Look for someone to inquire. Actually, I came to apologize to Dr. Ding. What I said last time..."

Ding Qi interrupted: "Needless to say, I understand your mood at the time. I have to thank you for what happened later." After Tian Xianglong reported for the first time, someone countered the news on the Internet the next day. Guided the reversal of public opinion. The whistleblower claimed to be the cousin of the Jiangbei murder victim, so of course it was Liu Guonan.

Liu Guonan: "You don't have to thank me, that's what I should do. But I didn't expect that they later bypassed Ankang Hospital, but specifically pointed the finger at you personally and made things bigger. There are many things. I have to look back to understand that I was indeed wrong. I shouldn’t think that, shouldn’t look at you that way, let alone say that. I really want to say thank you, in fact, I want to thank you, you are a good person!"

Ding Qi smiled: "Is this sending me a good person card?"

Liu Guonan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, I didn't mean that, I just think you are good."

Ding Qi: "You don't have to be so polite, I didn't do anything."

Liu Guonan looked up and said: "I know what you did... No, no, I didn't mean that. You are not a murder doctor, and the police can't say that! I mean, Tian Qi is dead, you But you have to suffer punishment. The world is too unfair, and the innocents are always unlucky. Good people are not rewarded. Your school is too much." She was a little incoherent.

Ding Qi said indifferently: "Things are getting too loud. It all started from my violation of discipline. If you were the person in charge of such a large organization, you would deal with it in the same way. But good people also get rewards. You are not here. Did you give me New Year's greetings?" The last sentence was a joke, to ease the atmosphere, he didn't want Liu Guonan to be so nervous.

Liu Guonan's face turned red, and he drew a bulging red envelope from his carry-on bag and handed it over, he said in a vague way: "I'm here to pay a New Year's greetings. This is New Year's New Year's money, here you are!"

New year's money? Liu Guonan gave him lucky money! This girl is not very good at human relations. She wanted to express her gratitude to Ding Qi and reluctantly found an excuse. But this is not a relative... Ding Qi was a little bit dumbfounded, and shook her head: "I am an adult too, you are doing Chinese New Year. Why give me lucky money?"

Visually inspect the red envelope, it is actually a red envelope, and the thickness should be 20,000 cash. Why send money? Her thinking should be similar to Tian Rongping. She thinks that Ding Qi has been unemployed for more than four months. She must be destitute and short of money. Give it too straightforwardly, and for fear of hurting Ding Qi's self-esteem, he actually thought of the name "New Year's Money".

In any case, Ding Qi is very grateful. In the past few months, he worked as a temporary worker in the library at 1,500 per month, but he also lived in the school’s dormitory for free and ate in the school’s cafeteria without any other expenses. He originally had a deposit of 80,000 yuan, which he lent to Tian Rongping 50,000 yuan, but he paid it back yesterday, and the "year-end bonus" took another 100,000 yuan.

In other words, he now has 180,000 in deposits. He has never had money in his pocket for so many years. Although it was at his worst time, today Liu Guonan sent another 20,000 yuan. This is to Do you round it up for him?

Liu Guonan replied: "Well, you can’t come empty-handed, just a little bit of heart, you just accept it. In fact, in previous years, I would give my cousin New Year’s money every year. This year he is gone, and I see you, it feels like I saw him...No, no, don’t get me wrong, it’s unlucky to say such things in the New Year, but I don’t mean anything else, I just want to say..."

Ding Qi quickly took the red envelope and said: "You don't need to say, I understand what you mean. I can't take so much, so let's do it. The meaning is fine, and the new year will be auspicious, thank you!" Opening the envelope, it turned out that there were two bundles of new hundred-yuan bills inside. He took out one bundle and put it in his pocket, then put the remaining money back into the envelope and returned it to Liu Guonan.

Liu Guonan took the envelope subconsciously, and asked curiously: "What kind of custom is this, can you choose one from a hundred?"

Ding Qi almost uttered aloud. The banknotes were in bundles of one hundred, and he pulled out one in each bundle. Isn't it just one out of a hundred? This girl is not very good at talking sometimes, and sometimes she is really good at poking words! He smiled and said: "You gave me 20,000 lucky money, I am two years younger than you, and I also gave you 19,000 lucky money, we have all gained during the Chinese New Year."

Liu Guonan didn't insist anymore, he put away the envelope and asked, "I heard that your partner broke up with you?" When she said this, her voice was very soft, and she lowered her head without daring to look at Ding Qi's eyes. .

Ding Qi waved his hand and said: "For those of you who are celebrating the New Year, I won't talk about this, and I can't talk about who broke up with whom, but didn't go on."

Liu Guonan: "I also heard that this dormitory will be reserved for you until the beginning of the next semester. You will have to move out after the New Year... I have a house in my house that is still vacant. It is my parents. I bought them a long time ago and are going to be used for my wedding, and they are unoccupied at the moment. You can move there temporarily. They are all friends, so you don’t have to be polite with me."

Not only did she have a free house, Tian Rongping also said yesterday that the marriage was not completed, but for the convenience of work, he moved to a newly renovated house. There was still an empty room in the new house, and Ding Qi also You can move in to live together, but Ding Qi declined the kindness.

Ding Qi replied: "I am not short of money now. Really, I have also saved some savings over the years. I have already contacted the agency a year ago. The agency found a house for me. I will move in after the Spring Festival holiday. Thank you for your trouble."

Liu Guonan seemed to pluck up his courage and raised his eyes and said: "Then you have to spend your own money! In fact, you don't have to be polite with me, I always want to find opportunities to do something for you."

Ding Qi smiled gently and said: "You mentioned your cousin just now and said that when you saw me, you remembered your cousin. This is a psychological empathy. You know, I used to be yours. Psychological counselor, those things happened later, in the process, you may subconsciously have emotional projection..."

The way Liu Guonan looked at him was not just like looking at his cousin, but Ding Qi was a little uncomfortable looking at him, and it felt weird. He chose a very "professional" approach and talked about empathy from a professional perspective.

This made Liu Guonan very speechless, and finally said weakly: "You are no longer a psychologist."

Finally, he sent away the affectionate Liu Guonan, and refused the other party's request to invite him to dinner. After closing the door, Ding Qi smiled bitterly, but felt that he was more cheerful.

The next day on the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, Ding Qi got up and ran two laps on the campus playground. After returning to the dormitory, he washed his face and wiped off his sweat. He was thinking about what to eat at noon. Hear someone knocking on the door. In the past traditional customs, the so-called "big new year" was three days. I didn't expect that people would come to visit from the first to the third day of the middle school, and they would not be idle every day!

Although the access control downstairs is not easy to use, there is no sticker to inform visitors that it is broken. How can everyone know to push it and go straight upstairs? Who is it this time, and what is it for?

I opened the door and saw that he was a stranger. He looked less than thirty years old. He was about one meter tall and he was wearing rimless resin glasses. He didn't look deep or even plain. He was well dressed. Pretending, except that the eyes are slightly small, it can also be regarded as handsome.

The visitor carried a box of dried seafood spree and bowed briefly: "Hello, Teacher Ding, I'm here to pay you New Year's greetings!"
