There's a gust of wind coming from the south

In the past few days, Wen Ruan suddenly discovered that Chen Wenwu had disappeared.

The chairs at the back of the classroom were empty, which made Wen Ruan feel a little uncomfortable for a while.Although he understood that it was not easy for a rough man like Chen Wenwu to persist for so long, Wen Ruan still felt a little inexplicable loss in his heart.

And speaking of Chen Wenwu, he was not idle.Under Sheng Qingfeng's recommendation, he went to a Ru kiln factory in a nearby city, where he concentrated on learning kiln firing from the master craftsman there.

The master chef was also entrusted by Sheng Qingfeng, and he never thought about teaching Chen Wenwu anything. After all, porcelain firing can't be learned overnight, so just let him go with the tea set.

But Chen Wenwu is someone he doesn't admire, even the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu are not afraid of him.But if he really admires it, he will endure hardships, bow his head, and work hard.Since then, the old master really thought of accepting him as an apprentice.

However, he originally set his heart on the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch.Chen Wenwu's trip was not for anything else, but to make the beauty smile.

When Chen Wenwu appeared in front of Wen Ruan again, it was on his birthday.As soon as he changed from the usual little vest, he changed into a suit and trousers.He was originally tall and burly, and he looked even more upright in a suit, which attracted the frequent turn of the passing students.

"Are you going to get married?" Wen Ruan took a sip of tea from a cup.

"Huh?" Chen Wenwu was a little confused when asked.

"Why are you dressed like this?"

"Ah, oh!" Chen Wenwu grinned and scratched his head embarrassingly, "Are you free tonight, please have a meal."

Wen Ruan instantly understood that Chen Wenwu's grand occasion was to celebrate his own birthday, and then nodded, "Okay."

"Well, come to my noodle shop today! You haven't tasted my craft yet."

"can you cook?"

"Haha, it's okay! Then I'll go back and prepare first."

Seeing Chen Wenwu striding away, Wen Ruan was in a good mood, laughing more than usual throughout the afternoon class.

That night, Wen Ruan came to the noodle shop according to the address given to him by Chen Wenwu.At this time, it was completely dark.

In order to celebrate Wen Ruan's birthday, Chen Wenwu dismissed his master and fellows early in the morning and closed the shop for half a day.He bought a lot of candles, and filled the whole noodle shop with candles according to the most romantic atmosphere in his understanding.When Wen Ruan opened the door and came in, all he saw was candlelight.

"The power went out?" Wen Ruan frowned and looked at other shops outside through the window, and found that this was the only shop that was blacked out, and then realized that Chen Wenwu did it on purpose.

Several tables in the store were put together, and a table full of dishes was placed.

Wax was also lit on the table, with a bottle of red wine and two goblets beside it.

Chen Wenwu pushed the chair away gentlemanly, and made a "please" gesture to Wen Ruan.After Wen Ruan sat down, he immediately ran to the side and turned on the music.

"Hey——happy gongs and drums beating out every year's festive—"

Chen Wenwu cursed secretly, cut several times in a hurry, and the disc finally switched to the piano music he just bought this afternoon.

"Happy birthday, Wen Ruan."

It was the first time Chen Wenwu called Wen Ruan's full name. Although he had silently recited it in his heart for a long time, he still felt a little nervous when he actually called it out.

"Thank you." Wen Ruan glanced at the dishes on the table, "You made all of these?"

"It was done under the guidance of my master. How do you taste it?" Chen Wenwu poured wine into the glass, and greeted Wen Ruan to pick up vegetables.

Seeing the full glass of red wine brought by Chen Wenwu, Wen Ruan held back his smile and motioned for him to toast.

The wine glasses collided with a crisp sound, and Chen Wenwu raised his head and drank the red wine in one gulp.He smacked his lips, feeling that he was not as strong as Bai.

"You eat first, I'll cook noodles for you."

"There are so many things, enough to eat."

"No no, sliced ​​noodles is my trump card here." Chen Wenwu trotted into the kitchen.

Wen Ruan was bored sitting alone at the table, so she got up and followed into the kitchen.

Wearing an apron, Chen Wenwu stood in front of a cauldron steaming with white smoke, and quickly waved the sharp knife in his hand.The dough held in his other hand was cut into willow leaves with thin sides and thick middle, and flew into the cauldron one after another.

The smell of meat filled the kitchen. Chen Wenwu took out the beef marinated in old soup, sliced ​​it, and spread it on the steaming hot surface.He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and turned around to see Wen Ruan standing outside the kitchen.Frowning, he said, "Don't stand here, the kitchen is oily, and you'll get your clothes dirty again."

Wen Ruan shrugged indifferently, the scene he had witnessed before gave him the idea of ​​just guarding an ordinary shop, with a lamp reserved for him, and then live a peaceful life.

It has to be said that Chen Wenwu's level of knife-shaved noodles is no longer inferior to that of his master.The flavor of the meat is pure, the soup is rich, and the shape and width of the sliced ​​noodles are exactly the same. Wen Ruan thinks this is the best noodle he has ever eaten.

"Your craftsmanship is really amazing." Wen Ruan said sincerely.

Chen Wenwu, who was praised by the beauty, was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Do you like it?"

"I like it, it seems that I will come here often in the future."

Chen Wenwu took out a simple and elegant box from under the table at the front desk, and handed it to Wen Ruan: "This is a gift from me."

Wen Ruan took the box and opened it, and was immediately attracted by the items inside.

It was a small jasper-colored Ru kiln bowl, and the workmanship was quite fine, which shows that effort has been put into it.The edge of the bowl is in the shape of white orchid petals, and a dancing butterfly is engraved on the surface, which is lifelike.

Wen Ruan carefully put the bowl in his hand and looked at it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

"Well, I burned it myself. Do you like it?"

"You disappeared for so long, just to do this?"

Chen Wenwu nodded: "It's really difficult, it almost broke."

"Why did you give me a bowl?"

"Don't you like to eat the noodles I made? With this bowl, I will let you eat for free for a lifetime."

Wen Ruan wanted to laugh, but was also moved. Chen Wenwu was probably the only one in this world who would use Ruci as a noodle bowl.

Seeing that Wen Ruan was still playing with the small bowl, Chen Wenwu's throat moved, he hesitated to speak.

He turned around and ran to the wine cabinet to open another bottle of white, and took a few gulps of the bottle.The pungentness slid down from the mouth and down the throat, and Chen Wenwu was so hot that a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

He took a deep breath, put down the bottle, turned back to Wen Ruan, and sat down across from him.

His face was so close to Wen Ruan's that he could even feel the other's breath.Wen Ruan smelled the alcohol on Chen Wenwu's lips, and cast a puzzled look.

In the candlelight, Wen Ruan's facial features were softened, and there seemed to be stars hidden in his eyes.The watery eyes coupled with the inquiring expression almost made Chen Wenwu unable to hold back and kissed her fiercely.

Chen Wenwu licked his dry lips, blushed just like that, snorted heavily mixed with the smell of alcohol, stared at Wen Ruan without saying a word.

"It will be uncomfortable to drink alcohol." Wen Ruan frowned.

Chen Wenwu grabbed Wen Ruan's hand holding the Ru kiln. His hand was so strong that Wen Ruan almost dropped the Ru kiln bowl to the ground by mistake.

"Chen Wenwu, what are you doing?"

"You asked me to find Mr. Butterfly. In fact, the first time I saw you, I knew I had found you."

"what?"

"I want to be nice to you, and I will spend my whole life trying to be nice to you."

Chen Wenwu looked at Wen Ruan with red eyes, with a kind of extreme longing: "Is it going to work?"

……

The melted oil of the candle solidified into a white flower, and the light of the fire gradually dimmed with the passage of time.

The two of them maintained this posture. In Wen Ruan's silence, Chen Wenwu's heart sank little by little.

"For a lifetime, can you say it so easily?"

"You do not trust me?"

"It's not that I don't want to believe it, but I'm a little scared." Wen Ruan let go of Chen Wenwu's hand, sat back at the table and poured a glass of red wine, "Thank you for the gift, I really like it."

Chen Wenwu gritted his teeth and didn't know what to say, so he just stood there straight.

For the first time in my life, I racked my brains to confess, is this considered rejected?

"Are you still welcome to eat noodles?"

"When will you come, and when will I make it for you."

Wen Ruan smiled, and said lightly: "Chen Wenwu, you are a good person."

Outside the noodle shop, a figure flashed past and merged into the night.

……

After sending Wen Ruan back to the dormitory, Chen Wenwu specially brought another bottle of wine home to prevent him from insomnia at night and thinking about it.I never thought that besides causing headaches, alcohol has no other effects at all.Chen Wenwu lay on the bed, feeling like he was on a boat.Seeing the light gradually dimming in the sky, he let out a howl, which woke up the wild cat on the roof.

The silence was broken by the ringing of the phone, an unfamiliar number.

"Hey."

"Second Master Huang." A hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone.

Chen Wenwu sat up and said in a deep voice, "Who?"

There was no sound on the phone for a long time, and after a while, there was a sinister laugh: "Your little lover is with me, surnamed Wen, right?"

Chen Wenwu cursed in a low voice: "What the hell are you trying to do?"

"There is something I want in the warehouse of the Hexi Coal Factory. You go and get him. You are the only one."

"Where are you?"

"I'll call you again after I get the things. Remember, don't call the police, let alone your brothers, or you'll be waiting to find the corpse in Anhe tonight."

A series of busy tones came from the phone.
