poppies in the attic

38.

Wu Pengzhi had endless questions, until both of them were starving.So we drove out to eat.

Xiang Jin sat in Wu Pengzhi's passenger seat for the first time, watching Wu Pengzhi skillfully navigate the traffic.

Wu Pengzhi's driving skills are excellent, he drives smartly, changes lanes smoothly, and doesn't even make people feel scared.

"What happened to your car accident?" Wu Pengzhi asked while turning the steering wheel.

"I was driving my broken jeep and rushed up a slope. At that time, facing the setting sun, my eyes were bright and I couldn't see anything. With a bang, I was hit by a car. He drove in the wrong direction on my driveway. That's it. Fortunately, my jeep is tall and not seriously injured." Xiang Jin described it lightly.

"Who were you with at the time?" Wu Pengzhi didn't know whether he wanted that person to be Wen Shaohui or that mysterious woman.

"Myself."

"Alone?" Wu Pengzhi heaved a sigh of relief again. "When driving alone, will you think of me? Our time together?"

"Yes. With you here, I'm relieved." Xiang Jin turned to look at Wu Pengzhi's profile.

Wu Pengzhi grinned, turned the steering wheel cheerfully, and was about to turn into the parking lot, but almost bumped into a bicycle that was pushing hard from the road.

"Be careful!" Xiang Jin was shocked.

The cyclist stopped abruptly by the car door and cast a condemning look at Xiang Jin.Xiang Jin rolled down the car window and waved to apologize.The man probably didn't expect that Xiang Jin would open the window to apologize, and his face softened.

Wu Pengzhi also quickly leaned over and waved to the man as an apology.The cyclist actually showed a little smile.In this fractious world, there are not many drivers who are sincerely apologetic.

Wu Pengzhi was leaning very close to Xiang Jin's body at this moment, and she smelled the familiar citrus fragrance again. Xiang Jin liked this laundry detergent.Her tastes have not changed.

The car behind honked impatiently, and Wu Pengzhi hurried into the parking lot.

"Let's eat hairy crabs today, shall we?" This is Wu Pengzhi's favorite.

"Okay. I haven't eaten it yet." Xiang Jin said.

Wu Pengzhi took Xiang Jin's hand distressedly, and went straight to the reserved seat.

"Miss Wu, are you bringing friends over today?" The lobby manager was very attentive to Wu Pengzhi, it seemed that Wu Pengzhi was a regular visitor.

"A Jin, I'm in charge of ordering food?" Wu Pengzhi still knew Xiang Jin very well, and she didn't want to spend time on eating.

Sure enough, after the hairy crabs were brought to the table, Xiang Jin was helpless with the two crabs assigned to him.

Wu Pengzhi was very happy about this.She leaned against Xiang Jin, skillfully using the tools, and taught them by hand.He asked earnestly, "Is it delicious? Is it delicious?"

Xiang Jin chewed the crab paste and crab meat seriously, then nodded and praised the deliciousness.

Wu Pengzhi was as happy as if Xiang Jin was boasting about his delicious food.I don't even bother to eat my own crabs.

In the end, he couldn't help but grabbed one of Xiang Jin's crab claws, peeled it off carefully, squeezed out the complete piece of meat with his fingers, dipped it in ginger vinegar, and brought it to Xiang Jin's mouth.

Xiang Jin opened his mouth uncomfortably, and lightly bit the crab meat with his teeth.

"Haha, isn't this the most complete piece of crab meat you've eaten tonight?" Wu Pengzhi said almost proudly.

Xiang Jin bowed her head in embarrassment and continued to fight wits and courage with the hard goods on her plate.

Xiang Jin's technique is indeed very poor. She mainly relies on her teeth and is not very good at using tools.She also has no talent in the matter of eating.

Wu Pengzhi was very grateful to the hairy crabs in front of her eyes, it was them that made her get rid of her self-confidence and discomfort, and she began to recover her usual skills.

"Deliciousness, like beautiful scenery, requires hard work to obtain." Wu Pengzhi is complacent about his theory.

Xiang Jin stopped the crab legs she was tearing, and replied, "You have a true love for food, but a false love for nature."

"Who said it! Who said it!" Wu Pengzhi became coquettish in an instant.Then she was startled by her own tone. How long has it been since she didn't speak in such a tone?She was not sure for a moment whether such a tone was appropriate for her age.

"I said it." Xiang Jin's half-smile expression appeared on his face again, "You have already shown it in the United States. Every time you eat, your eyes light up, and when you walk into nature, you think about things. Xiangxi is restless."

"My eyes shine when I eat because I'm always hungry, and my mind wandering in nature is mainly because of hunger and thirst." Wu Pengzhi jokingly tested Xiang Jin's reaction.

Xiang Jin avoided Wu Pengzhi's groaning smile. She didn't know Wu Pengzhi's current situation, but she felt a little embarrassed.

15 years is too long, and Xiang Jin has not yet adjusted to it.The main reason for her slow reluctance to see Wu Pengzhi was that she needed time to relax.After returning home, I had to adapt to too many things.She was a little anxious, and she even started having trouble sleeping.

After returning to China, Xiang Jin found that he no longer knew many roads, and he had never seen many famous buildings.Also, she felt that the language was dull, let alone the Internet language, even the spoken language of many people, she felt inexplicable.

On the contrary, Wen Shaohui, who has never been to Guangzhou, quickly adapted to the city.He likes it here, he thinks it has a great vibe and a great climate.

Wu Pengzhi was not very satisfied with the result of the trial.So change the subject.She reminded herself to be moderate and take her time.

"Ajin, tell me about the woman who dared to reject you?"
