Qiao Liang and Anzhe went to the dormitory. The room was a bit old, but the tidy floor was clean. Two single beds were placed face to face. There was a desk in the middle, and a washbasin rack was placed at the door, and brand new towels and unused toiletries were placed on the rack. It was obviously just taken.

Qiao Liang picked up the basin to fetch water, and there was a water pipe at the door of the dormitory.

Qiao Liang came back from fetching water and was about to ask An Zhe to wash his face first, the township party secretary came in, carrying a pot of boiling water and two pairs of slippers.

After the township party secretary put down his things, An Zhe said to him: "Okay, you've been busy for a day, go and have a rest."

After the township party secretary left, An Zhe changed into slippers, then went to the water pipe at the door and rinsed his feet, then came back to wash his face and brush his teeth.

After simple cleaning, An Zhe took off his coat and lay on the bed. An Zhe was tall and pressed by him, making a squeaking and painful sound, as if he could not bear the weight.

"Secretary An, please be gentle, don't crush the bed." Qiao Liang said with a smile.

"Exaggeration!" An Zhe muttered.

Qiao Liang then went out to wash and came back after washing. Seeing An Zhe lying on the bed, his eyes closed.

Qiao Liang lay down gently and then turned off the light.

In the darkness, Qiao Liang put his hands behind his head, looking at the deep night outside the window, thinking that he was still in the prosperous city of Huangyuan in the morning, but now he came to this mountain far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and living in the same room with An Zhe, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

After feeling emotion, sleepiness came, and after a day of struggle, I was really tired.

And so should Anzhe.

Qiao Liang was about to fall asleep, but he heard An Zhe start snoring, and his voice became louder and louder.

Qiao Liang smiled silently in the darkness. Emma, ​​this guy is sleeping soundly. How can he sleep with this movement?

Qiao Liang was no longer sleepy by An Zhe's snoring, so he simply got up and decided to go out for a walk.

Qiao Liang quietly put on his coat, tiptoed to the door, opened the door and came out, took it to the door gently, looked around, and the lights were turned off in the other rooms, only the lights in one room next to him were still on.

Qiao Liang walked over gently and heard the sound of Xu Chan and Jiang Xiuxiu talking from inside. He nodded. This was Jiang Xiuxiu's dormitory.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Qiao Liang said outside the door.

After a moment, the door opened and Jiang Xiuxiu stood at the door in her coat.

"We are about to sleep, you..." Jiang Xiuxiu looked at Qiao Liang.

Qiao Liang's eyes passed by Jiang Xiuxiu and saw inside, Xu Chan was sitting by the bed.

Qiao Liang then smiled bitterly: "Secretary An snoring too loudly, I can't sleep."

"Oh, what should I do?" Jiang Xiuxiu was a little worried.

"It's okay, I'll go out and enjoy the night in the mountains. Come back to sleep later. You can rest." After saying that, Qiao Liang waved his hand and turned around and walked out.

Jiang Xiuxiu then closed the door.

Xu Chan sat beside the bed and blinked.

Qiao Liang left the township government yard, next to the yard was a big mountain. Under the bright moonlight, he saw a winding path leading into the mountains.

Qiao Liang walked in the path. At this time, the mountains were quiet. The chirping of unknown insects came from the grass, and occasionally a few barkings came from the distance.

After walking for a while, there were dense forests in front of me. The wind blew by and the leaves made a rustling sound.

Qiao Liang took a deep breath. The air in the mountains was very fresh, like a natural oxygen bar.

Qiao Liang continued to walk up and climbed to a high slope for a long time. There was a very thick tree here. I don’t know how many years it has grown. Under the huge canopy, there was a flat and smooth rock.

Qiao Liang sat on the big rock and looked down. There were fragmented lights at the foot of the mountain, and the entire mountain village was surrounded by the thick night. At this time, Huangyuan and Jiangzhou were at the peak of nightlife, but here, people who had been working hard for a day fell asleep.

The difference between life in cities and villages is so big that although the environment here is elegant and fresh, it is a good place for urban people to relax and vacation, but for people living here for a long time, it means more poverty and simplicity.

Thinking of Jiang Xiuxiu's work and life in such a place, thinking of how long Jiang Xiuxiu would work and live in such a place, thinking of how she looked when she saw Jiang Xiuxiu working with the villagers during the day, Qiao Liang felt a burst of pain and sadness, and his eyes couldn't help but feel a little twitching.

Qiao Liang rubbed his eyes, raised his head, looked at the twinkling stars and the clear moon in the night sky, and sighed deeply.

At this time, a slight movement came from nearby. Qiao Liang was shocked and he pricked up his ears to listen. The sound came from the direction he was when he came.

Qiao Liang stared at the path below.

After a moment, a figure appeared on the path, looking around carefully while walking.

Qiao Liang saw clearly under the moonlight: Xu Chan.

Qiao Liang didn't say anything and looked at Xu Chan.

At this time, Xu Chan shouted softly: "Brother Qiao, Brother Qiao..."

Listening to Xu Chan's voice, I was a little nervous and a little scared.

"Come here." Qiao Liang spoke.

Xu Chan was startled, then he saw Qiao Liang following the sound. He breathed a sigh of relief, put his hand on his chest and gently stroked it, and then walked towards this side.

"It's so late, why are you going into the deep mountains and forests alone?" Qiao Liang said.

"Come to find you." Xu Chan sat down next to Qiao Liang.

"What are you looking for me?"

"I'm afraid you will be alone in the mountains, so I'll be with you."

Qiao Liang was moved when he heard this and said, "Are you afraid of running out by yourself?"

"I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid when I see you." Xu Chan smiled.

"Where is Jiang Xiuxiu?"

"She fell asleep."

"She doesn't know if you come out?"

"I don't know, I came out quietly when I saw her sleeping heavily."

Qiao Liang sighed: "She has been busy for a day and is indeed very tired."

Xu Chan nodded: "Yes, I know that Xiuxiu is really not easy to work in the countryside."

Qiao Liang felt uncomfortable again: "It was also a grievance for her to be sent here from the county government office."

"I said that when I was chatting with her just now, but Xiuxiu didn't think so."

"Oh, what did she say?"

"Xiuxiu said that when she first came, she felt wronged, but after staying for a while, she didn't feel this way. She said that there are so many cadres in the village and many lesbians. Everyone does the same thing, suffers the same hardship, and works hard. Why do she feel wronged? Why can she be an exception? So, her mentality is very peaceful now."

Qiao Liang nodded silently. It seemed that Jiang Xiuxiu said this, but she had a strong adaptability.

Although he still felt sorry for Jiang Xiuxiu, Qiao Liang seemed to feel a little comforted because of her mentality.

"Brother Qiao, you are so nice to Xiuxiu." Xu Chan's voice was a little envious.

"How do you see that I'm kind to her?" Qiao Liang turned to look at Xu Chan.

"From your performance before, from Secretary An's words tonight."

"From Secretary An's words?"

"Yes." Xu Chan nodded, "I can feel that if you hadn't said anything in front of Secretary An, Secretary An would not have said so many things related to Xiuxiu tonight, nor would he ask County Mayor Yao so many questions."

Qiao Liang couldn't help but think that Xu Chan was very smart, and he could feel it.

Of course, Xu Chan felt this way because she knew that Jiang Xiuxiu was taking care of her when she was hospitalized.

Miao Peilong also knew about this, so he might be able to feel something.

Although Yao Jian found it strange, he probably wouldn't notice it because he didn't know about it.

Qiao Liang then asked Xu Chan: "Are you jealous of Jiang Xiuxiu?"

"No." Xu Chan shook her head and then said, "But I envy her."

"What do you envy her?"

"Of course I envy her for being praised by Secretary An and for your kindness to her."

Qiao Liang smiled: "It's normal to be envious, just be fine if you don't be jealous."

"Brother Qiao, you and Xiuxiu..." Xu Chan stopped talking.

"What do you want to say?" Qiao Liang looked at Xu Chan.

"I want to say, are you, are there between you..." Xu Chan hesitated, as if embarrassed to say it.

"You want to tell if there is such a relationship between us, right?" Qiao Liang interrupted Xu Chan and said directly.
