Nantianmen Project: Starting from Love Apartment

Hu Yifei drove her car at lightning speed towards the market near the Love Apartment.

This market is not ordinary. It can be said to be the largest and most comprehensive market in the vicinity. Whether it is animals running on land, birds flying in the sky, or fish swimming in the ocean, as long as they are legal and compliant ingredients or items, they can be found here.

"Yifei, what are you planning to cook tonight?" Xiao Jie asked casually while browsing the dazzling array of goods with great interest.

However, after a long while, he did not get a response from Hu Yifei. Puzzled, Xiao Jie turned around to see what Hu Yifei was picking, but was surprised to find that Hu Yifei, who had just stood behind him, had disappeared.

"Hey, this is strange! Where did Fei go?"

Xiao Jie looked around, but he couldn't see the familiar figure of Hu Yifei in the bustling crowd.

Xiao Jie searched for a while and then stopped looking. He continued to buy the goods he needed.

"Boss, how much is this crucian carp?" Xiao Jie stopped and stood in front of a fish stall, asking with a puzzled look on his face.

The fish stall owner glanced at him and replied calmly, "Thirty yuan a pound."

"What? Thirty!" Xiao Jie widened his eyes and looked at the fish stall owner in disbelief.

Then he complained: "Boss, is this fish of yours made of gold or silver? How can it be sold at such a high price?"

"How can it be expensive? It has been the same price for so many years. Don't talk nonsense with your eyes open. Sometimes you should look for the reasons yourself. Have your salary increased over the years? Have you worked hard? Okay." The fish stall owner said dissatisfiedly.

"This fish of yours is dead and upside down, yet you're still selling it at such a high price." Xiao Jie pointed at an upside-down fish and questioned the fish stall owner with a dissatisfied look on his face.

"How can my fish be dead? It is just practicing backstroke!" The fish stall owner argued speciously with a sly smile on his face.

Xiao Jie looked at the fish stall owner as if he were a fool, secretly laughing in his heart: "This guy is really talking nonsense with open eyes. Does he think everyone else is a fool?"

Facing Xiao Jie's questioning gaze, the fish stall owner felt uncomfortable all over, but still said stubbornly:

"Young man, if you don't want to buy, don't block my business. There are plenty of people who will."

Xiao Jie said disdainfully: "Only a fool would buy a dead fish like you."

Then he turned and left the fish stall.

Afterwards, Xiao Jie carefully selected in the market and finally bought some fresh shrimps and some juicy green vegetables.

Not long after he walked, he ran into Hu Yifei.

"Yifei, where did you go just now? I couldn't find you anywhere." Xiao Jie asked curiously.

"Oh, I'm going to buy eggs and tomatoes." Hu Yifei smiled and picked up the bag in her hand to show it to Xiao Jie.

"Are you planning to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes?" Xiao Jie guessed.

"That's half right. I not only plan to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, I also plan to make my best dish, fried rice with eggs," said Hu Yifei.

When Xiao Jie heard the words "fried rice with egg", he could imagine the scene of tonight's meal.

"Xiao Jie, what did you buy?" Hu Yifei asked curiously, looking at the bulging plastic bag in Xiao Jie's hand.

"Oh, I bought some fresh prawns and green vegetables." Xiao Jie replied with a smile.

"Oh, do you need to buy something else?" Hu Yifei continued to ask.

Xiao Jie thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we buy some more pork? I'm afraid there won't be enough vegetables."

"That's fine. I remember the pork seller seems to be in that direction." Hu Yifei pointed in a direction.

"You'll know if you go and take a look." Xiao Jie said as he walked towards the direction Hu Yifei pointed.

Seeing this, Hu Yifei hurriedly followed.

Not long after, the two arrived at the stall selling pork.

Xiao Jie picked out a piece of pork with the right amount of fat and lean meat, paid the money, and left the market with Hu Yifei.

"This should be enough for us to eat." Hu Yifei said, looking at the dishes in her hands.

Xiao Jie nodded and responded, "Well, it should be enough. If not, there is still some food left in the refrigerator at home. It is better to heat it up and eat it together than to waste it."

"That's good. Let's go. I guess Zhanbo and the others have returned to the apartment by now." Hu Yifei said as she led Xiao Jie to where she parked the car, put the purchased vegetables into the trunk of the car, and then drove back to the apartment.

……

Soon, the two returned to the apartment.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Xiao Jie and Hu Yifei just got out of the car and saw Lu Zhanbo and others standing in front of a white RV with a little blue, chatting excitedly about something.

"Zhanbo, is this the RV you bought?" Hu Yifei asked as he approached.

"Hi, sister, that's right. How cool is it? This is the coolest one I specially picked out." Lu Zhanbo said proudly.

Hu Yifei looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "Yeah, it's really cool, but you cried a lot when you were washing it."

"It's not a big problem. Nowadays, car washes are all done with smart machines. They are convenient and labor-saving." Lu Zhanbo said nonchalantly.

Then, Lu Zhanbo looked at the vegetables in Xiao Jie and Hu Yifei's hands and asked, "Sister, Brother Xiao, did you just come back from buying vegetables?"

"Yes, we just came back from your sister's school. Your sister said she would cook tonight, so we bought some vegetables as well."

"What, sister, are you going to cook tonight?" Lu Zhanbo looked at Hu Yifei in disbelief.

Hu Yifei nodded.

Seeing Hu Yifei nod, Lu Zhanbo said with despair in his eyes: "Can I not eat at home tonight?"

"What? You don't believe in your sister's craftsmanship?" Hu Yifei looked at Lu Zhanbo dangerously.

"I believe it. I believe it very much." Lu Zhanbo said embarrassedly.

"That's fine. Since you believe it, just eat more tonight," said Hu Yifei.

"Okay, okay." Lu Zhanbo wanted to cry but had no tears.

"Let's go upstairs," said Hu Yifei.

"Right away, right away." Lu Zhanbo said.

"I'll go up first. If I don't see you in ten minutes, you're dead." Hu Yifei threatened.

"Of course, of course." Lu Zhanbo nodded quickly.

Seeing this, Hu Yifei went upstairs with Xiao Jie with satisfaction.

Seeing Hu Yifei walking away, Lu Zhanbo said dejectedly, "It's terrible. Why did Brother Xiao let my sister cook?"

"Well, let's just take it one step at a time." Lu Ziqiao also sighed.

"Fei Fei, why do you suddenly want to cook?" Lin Wanyu said with a worried look on her face.

"Maybe it was a sudden impulse." Chen Meijia said.

"Her effort comes at the perfect time. I'm going on a trip tomorrow, but she wants to cook today. Do I have to spend the whole trip in the toilet?" Lu Ziqiao said in despair.

"Let's go. If we don't go up now, my sister will kill someone." Lu Zhanbo said.

Then he walked towards the elevator with heavy steps.

It was clearly only a few steps away, but it seemed as if Lu Zhanbo had walked several kilometers.

Seeing this, Lu Ziqiao and the others slowly followed.

Normally they walked very fast, but now they walked unusually slowly, as if there was a thousand-foot cliff or a ten-thousand-meter abyss ahead.

"Why do I feel like I'm going to the execution ground?" said Chen Meijia.

"Aren't we going to the execution ground to carry out the execution now?" said Lu Zhanbo.

"It's also a roar. They seem to be almost the same. It all means death." Chen Meijia cried.
