Chapter 25 If We Never Met (7)

After playing a song, the lingering sound lingers.

"Okay, young man, I can see that your guitar skills are very solid!"

The bar owner clapped his hands after hearing this and said with a smile.

"Boss, how long has it been since you used this guitar? The neck is a little bent."

He Tianran handed the guitar over, and the boss checked it after taking it: "Really? It's probably because the beach is too wet, and if it's not maintained for a few months, there will be some problems."

The young man jumped off the bandstand and walked up to Cao Aiqing. She had also clapped just now, but the movement was very light and the intensity was very small, and there was almost no sound.

"Why do you suddenly want to play the piano?" she asked.

He Tianran scratched his head: "You don't need any reason to be interested, but since you asked, I can find several...for example..."

He paused deliberately, then raised his eyebrows and said cynically: "For example, let you feel the happiness of another Cao Aiqing."

"..."

Cao Aiqing was stunned when she heard this. After a while, she seemed to laugh angrily, and instantly put on the cold air of a working woman:

"Didn't I tell you otherwise that it would make people tired of you saying such things?"

The young man disagreed, "I said that she often said this about me, but I know that she actually likes her. This girl is stubborn and refuses to admit it. Besides, there is nothing greasy about the little fun between lovers.

, you haven’t experienced it?”

Cao Aiqing was speechless for a moment.

Sure enough, being sinister can defeat aloofness, this is the unchanging truth.

"Do you have anything else to do today? Don't you have to go back to the city to prepare for the wedding later?" He Tianran asked.

"Lao Guo is working with his parents, and many things are handled by the wedding company. They also know about my work in Nanzhi Island, so they don't let me worry about it. When it's time for me to make a decision, they will send a message.

You asked for my opinion." Cao Aiqing replied casually.

"You really sound like a leader when you say this. Those who didn't know better would have thought that you were not getting married, but dealing with a case." He Tianran couldn't help but complain.

Cao Aiqing glared at him and said, "I've finished talking to you today. If you want to leave, you can leave first."

He Tianran joked: "Don't mention it, boss, I came all the way to the island, so I have to accompany you to inspect the inspection work."

"What did you say?"

Cao Aiqing was stunned for a moment after hearing these words. He Tianran had already walked to the door of the bar and shook his head at her.

"Let's go, leader, you're fine and so am I. Why don't we just take a walk around the island."





Perhaps due to the impact of the typhoon two days ago, there were not many tourists on Nanzhi Island at this time. Cao Aiqing and He Tianran walked very slowly, taking a deep breath, and the clear oxygen entered their chests. After the heavy rain, they walked alone

Some of the sea scenery is really mesmerizing.

Due to He Tianran's unobtrusive speech just now, Cao Aiqing remained silent along the way.

If this had happened before, Brother Tianran would have been afraid of going straight to the center of the earth and racking his brains to think of a terrible topic. But now, not only will this not happen to him, he even upholds the principle of "

As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed." With this thick and dark spirit, he glanced at Cao Aiqing from time to time, imitating the other person and not saying anything, and then smiled meaningfully.

Sure enough, Cao Aiqing couldn't help it any longer. Just as she was about to speak, He Tianran spoke first:

"Hey, be careful about the car."

Having said that, before Cao Aiqing could react, he was pulled to the side of the road by the boy. Behind them, he saw four bicycles slowly riding up. The old man on the bicycle headed by him looked at He Tianran, and heard him looking at the three people around him.

An old lady left a sentence:

"Hey, this guy is not a good person at first glance."

"..."

The three old ladies were so amused by his witticism that they became a little unsteady on their bikes, and the four bicycles staggered away.

"Hello~"

Cao Aiqing laughed out loud.

"Why are you laughing? The scumbag is just getting old."

After He Tianran said this, he couldn't help laughing.

He looked around. The road they were taking now was a route around the island. The road surface was very smooth. There were many cyclists along the way. There were also many bicycles and electric scooters for rent on the roadside. This made He Tianran excited.

thought.

"or……"

"no."

"No, it's us..."

"I won't ride with you."

Cao Aiqing decisively rejected him.

"I'm not finished yet."

"And I'm wearing a dress."

He Tianran was dumbfounded by the three rejections. He said: "That's not what I meant. I know the dress you are wearing is not suitable for riding a bicycle. What I mean is, can I ride a bicycle by myself? You can walk.

I’ll follow you, it’s my first time here, why don’t you let me ride a bike by myself?”

When Cao Aiqing heard that she was overthinking, her ears turned red, but her tone remained unchanged and she said:

"That's your business, just take care of it yourself."

He Tianran stood there and made no move.

Cao Aiqing thought he was out of tricks. She had seen too many such tricks.

Unexpectedly, he stretched out a hand and said with a flattering smile on his face: "Can you lend me some money?"

What a clumsy trick!

Cao Aiqing pointed it out: "Then how did you come to Nanzhi Island!"

"You have to pay for the ticket."

"Then you still ask me to borrow it!"

"That's right, I didn't say that I didn't bring any money. I just wanted to ask you to borrow some money. Isn't it? Isn't it? After all, I am an old classmate of more than ten years, and I don't have the feelings to borrow a few dollars?"

He Tianran said it was natural, and Cao Aiqing gritted his teeth when he heard it.

At this time, are you and the other He Tianran the same person?

In the end, Cao Aiqing ignored him, and He Tianran smiled to himself and walked towards a guarded rental store on the roadside.

And the moment he turned around, in Cao Aiqing's sight, the young man's back suddenly showed a strange and transparent scene in the sunlight.

"You...you wait a minute!"

He Tianran turned his head and asked strangely: "What's wrong?"

That weird scene returned to normal in the blink of an eye. Cao Aiqing subconsciously thought it was just her illusion. She shook her head and stepped forward.

"Nothing, I'll go with you."

The two walked into the rental store. The clerk who was replacing the battery glanced at them and was busy with his work: "You can ride the bicycles outside by scanning the QR code. If you want to rent an eDonkey, you need to register. It costs 80 yuan."

There are those for one hour and one hundred and two."

"It's so expensive! I have a coupon you gave me when this store opened. Can I still use it?"

Here, before He Tianran could speak, he heard Cao Aiqing beside him speak. Now not only him, but also the clerk was stunned when he heard this.

"Ah? Our store even gave this thing away?"

Cao Aiqing nodded: "Yes, it's an electronic coupon, with a 30% discount and one hour free!"

He Tianran watched sideways as Cao Aiqing opened the photo album on his phone. Oh my god, it was all screenshots of electronic coupons and photos of buildings. There were occasionally one or two landscape photos in there, but not a single selfie.

As expected of you.

He Tianran was amazed.

"Now, look!"

Cao Aiqing turned over the phone and handed it to the clerk. The young man looked at the back and looked embarrassed and said:

"No... beauty... the discount period has expired long ago."

"But you didn't write the date on it!"

The little brother was heartbroken. Most of the small shops on the island like theirs were doing one-time sales. How could he know that someone would actually collect this thing...

He Tianran was overjoyed and said, "Yes, you are deceiving consumers. If you don't admit it, I will call you to complain."

The clerk is in a dilemma. He is just a worker. He really can't make the decision in this kind of thing. If there are complaints, the boss will definitely deduct his wages when he comes back.

He Tianran took Cao Aiqing's mobile phone and said, "Let's go, I'll go register with you."

The two of them walked aside. Cao Aiqing was attracted by the various cute little e-donkeys in the store and did not follow. The clerk used the machine to swipe the coupon and found that the coupon had indeed expired. He was still about to make some nonsense when he suddenly saw He

With his natural index finger on his lips, he quietly scanned the three hundred deposit with his mobile phone and said deliberately:

"It's usable. Look, how would you know it's expired if you don't try it?"

The clerk showed a grateful smile and understood: "It was my negligence. It is usable. I'm sorry. After you drive the car away, you can just find a store on the island to return it. We will

They all use the same network.”

"Okay." He Tianran nodded.

He walked up to Cao Aiqing, returned the phone to her, and said, "Okay, thanks to your coupon, help me choose a car?"

Cao Aiqing pointed to a small electric donkey: "Just... that one, the sky blue one."

He Tianran was unsure: "The first one on the left?"

"Yes, this is the only sky blue car." Cao Aiqing felt baffled.

"Ah...hmm!"

He Tianran almost exposed the fact that he was "color blind". He immediately walked over and the clerk handed over the key. After He Tianran took it, he stayed in place, scratching his ears and cheeks and said:

"Ahem~ This...ah...where are the accelerator and brake?"

The clerk had just experienced a disaster, and now he was stupid again. Cao Aiqing followed him and said, "Have you never ridden an electric bike?"

He Tianran answered very confidently: "Yes, how difficult can this thing be? Oh, there is a first time for everything. If you don't try, you will never master it."

Fortunately, the clerk on the side came to the rescue: "Beauty, many of our customers are riding bicycles for the first time. It's very simple. Just press the brakes and be careful. As long as you don't rush into the sea, nothing will happen."

Afterwards, the clerk spent less than a minute teaching He Tianran how to operate it. As the boy successfully started the electric donkey, he rushed out with a hiccup, then circled around and returned to the door of the store safely.

Seeing Cao Aiqing coming out, He Tianran could not restrain his excitement and said, "I can do it! Do you want to sit on it and try it? You can just sit sideways, I drive too slowly."

Cao Aiqing snorted coldly, shook his head, and went his own way.

He Tianran didn't force it, but he rode his little electric donkey, sometimes following Cao Aiqing, slowing down to get familiar with the battery car, sometimes speeding away, and then driving back in less than two minutes, going back and forth several times, and by the time he

Completely proficient, he simply went around in circles around Cao Aiqing.

He said enthusiastically: "Hey, look, do I look like the kind of speedster gangster on TV who is ready to rob someone?"

Cao Aiqing stopped. She couldn't hold herself any longer because she found that many tourists passing by were looking at them and giving them strange looks.

"You don't look like a gangster, you look like a three-year-old child, riding a small bicycle with training wheels, circling around adults!"

He Tianran stopped for a moment...

This metaphor... was so graphic that even he felt a little embarrassed...

Cao Aiqing looked at He Tianran and was stunned, and couldn't help but have a slight outline at the corner of his mouth.

"Oh, get in the car! I won't do anything to you, otherwise I will really be hanging around you all the time!"

Congratulations on the sudden loss of natural gas.

What a childish temper...

Cao Aiqing sighed helplessly, then she raised her chin slightly, walked over, and sat sideways in the back seat like a lady.

Unexpectedly, before she could maintain this ladylike posture for five seconds, the little electric donkey who sat down ran out like a madman, scaring her so much that she almost screamed.

"You... drive slower!"

Feeling the cool sea breeze blowing quickly by his ears, Cao Aiqing said anxiously.

"No! Once the wind-chasing boy catches up with the wind, either the wind stops, or he runs out of gas... bah, or he runs out of battery, otherwise he will never stop chasing!"

The excited young man in front said something very neutral.

Cao Aiqing was completely convinced by this "He Tianran".

How fast can the little electric donkey run?

Anyway, Cao Aiqing quickly adapted to this speed. After the initial fear, he had no choice but to let him go.

Soon after, He Tianran saw the old man who had ridiculed him just now.

As he passed by, the old man was panting. Three aunts were riding in front of him, talking and laughing.

"Hey, this old man doesn't usually do square dancing. His physical strength is not as good as the three sisters in front of him!"

"You brat..."

Before He Tianran could finish his words, he overtook him with a twist of the accelerator, and the laughter of the aunts could be heard from behind.

Cao Aiqing sat in the back and kept looking back. She saw and heard clearly. Along with the rushing wind, she said loudly:

"Ah~ He Tianran, are you childish?"

"Hmph! Don't worry about men's affairs!"

Cao Aiqing pressed her forehead against his back and was so amused by him that she couldn't help laughing.
