What to do if you are spotted by the straight man next door

Ellen looked at the fried egg on the plate with a strange expression, as if it was not an egg but a bomb.

Seeing Su Bin keep adding seasonings to the pot just now, white ones, black ones and transparent ones, Ellen almost wrinkled the word "Chuan" from his brows.

Su Bin wasn't sure if he was good at it, so he mustered up his courage and said, "Try it."

Ellen still saved face. He cut a small piece of fluffy egg white with a knife and tasted it. After chewing it twice, his frowning brows relaxed... He cut another piece and ate it, then raised his left eyebrow...

Su Bin was very worried. What does this guy mean?Make a statement!

Noticing Su Bin's eager eyes, Ellen commented: "The taste is a bit strange."

Su Bin's high-hanging heart fell to the bottom in an instant. Sure enough, foreigners are not used to their taste... Hey!

"But..." Ellen said again, "I like it very much."

Su Bin: "..." This is probably the feeling of flying from the ground to the sky in an instant!

Ellen scooped a spoonful of porridge, put the third sliced ​​fried egg into her mouth: "...Good."

Although his tone was flat, Su Bin felt that this was already the best compliment the other party could give, and at that moment just now, Su Bin seemed to see happiness overflowing from Ellen's face...

He secretly became excited as if he had scored [-] points in the exam.

Ellen did not make any noise during the meal, and his slow movements and graceful posture of using tableware made people feel that he was not eating a bowl of porridge, but some high-end French cuisine.Su Bin felt that if it wasn't for answering himself, Ellen might not have talked to him just now.

After eating, Ellen tucked the corner of her mouth with a napkin before asking Su Bin, "How did you do it?"

Su Bin: "...Huh?"

Ellen: "What did you just put in the eggs?"

Su Bin: "Sugar, light soy sauce, and white vinegar."

Ellen: "That's all?"

Su Bin: "Yes..."

Ellen: "Oh."

Su Bin was crazy, what on earth was he trying to say! !

Ellen didn't say anything, he thanked him again, and asked Su Bin if he wanted some coffee. He seemed to want to give him breakfast in return, and of course Su Bin would not refuse.

He found that Ellen poured too much milk into the glass he gave him, and frothed the milk, and asked curiously, "Why is mine different from yours?" He was not so nervous talking to Ellen now.

Ellen glanced at him lightly: "Don't you like it?"

Su Bin licked his lips stained with milk foam, and said honestly, "...I like it."

The taste is really good, the mellow coffee and the smoothness of the milk blend together perfectly, it tastes better than what Su Bin has tasted in any cafe!

Ellen looked at him with a half-smile, took a sip of coffee, and said, "I think you'd like more milk."

Su Bin held the cup and asked, "Why?"

"You look like a child." Ellen slightly raised her glass to him, and went upstairs.

Su Bin: "..." You should find me another "child" who can cook vinegar and poached eggs!

Su Bin went back to the room, connected to the school intranet with his laptop, uploaded the photos he just took, and made a note: "The second day in country B. The coffee made by my roommate is super delicious! [Smiling]"

When Su Bin first went to college, the intranet was very popular. He also played this, and he was also a famous person in the school, so he would go up to post status from time to time.

Soon a string of messages appeared under the photo——

Provincial University roommate A: "The new life is very nourishing!"

Provincial University roommate B: "Cook... coffee... coffee... don't irritate people who drink Nescafe instant every day, okay? [crying]"

Guo Li: "What a horse, how cool! [Contempt]"

Huang Zhengming: "What time is it at your place?"

……

Su Bin was thinking that this group of people are not going to class, when he saw a new message from a senior in his country: "Here is a picture of your wife! [spit]"

Su Bin took a sip of coffee and almost sprayed it on the screen, and quickly replied with three words: "Brother-room-en!"

Chen Xiaotian is a very special girl. She doesn't have QQ, doesn't play any social networks, and doesn't even send text messages on her mobile phone very much. Even her school homepage was built for her by Su Bin, and there is only Su Bin as a friend on it. Many people All requests to add her were rejected by Su Bin, but even so, the number of visits to Chen Xiaotian's homepage still reached triple digits because of her beauty.

Many people in Provincial University who have seen Chen Xiaotian's true face are angry at Su Bin's desire for dominance, but after all, he is already famous, and Su Bin is her high school classmate, with good grades and good looks. A lot to say.

But appreciating beautiful women is the common hobby of every nerd, and people who have a good relationship with Su Bin also like to joke with him, and Su Bin's senior is one of them.

The senior sent another sentence: "Leave your girlfriend in the country and go abroad alone, are you not afraid of being poached?"

Seeing this sentence, Su Bin couldn't help but startled, but he soon felt that there was no need to worry.

With Guo Li and Huang Zhengming staring at him every day, who would dare poach Su Bin's corner?And Chen Xiaotian is not someone else, she is neither vain nor lacking in love, her biggest hobby is reading books and listening to music, her heart is strong and her spiritual world is rich... If she can cheat, then there is no woman in the world that Su Bin can trust!

So Su Bin directly ignored the senior's message, closed the school intranet, and opened the "Strategy for Overseas Students" that K gave him.

Yesterday when Su Bin was on the bus, he had already flipped through it. The content in this booklet is comprehensive, covering everything from entry and exit precautions, to how to sell sanitary napkins for girls during their menstrual period... This book can definitely be called a "book for studying abroad". "!"

Su Bin was looking for the specific location of the "Chinese Supermarket" in the "Strategy", and was attracted by the introduction of a Chinese restaurant on one page——

"There are more than ten Chinese restaurants in M ​​City. As a senior foodie who loves Chinese food, Xiaobian Xixi specially consulted a number of seniors who are resident in M ​​City, and got an internal information. I recommend it to all freshmen. ..."

Su Bin, who is also a foodie, immediately became interested when he saw this sentence!But he scanned it and found that the editor’s recommendation included Hunan cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, northern cuisine, Taiwanese cuisine and the most frequent Cantonese cuisine, but there was no Zhejiang cuisine!

Su Bin’s hometown is Hangzhou, and Hangbang cuisine is an important school of Zhejiang cuisine. The taste is mainly salty, sweet, and slightly sour. The specialties include West Lake vinegar fish and Dongpo pork. Bin’s favorite, but in this recommendation, except for a restaurant called Happy Meal that sells pickled pork with dried plums and vegetables, there are no other hometown delicacies that Su Bin can miss!

Knowing that the restaurant was in the "China Town", Su Bin decided to go shopping there in the afternoon and buy something on the way back.

First took the bus to the city center, and asked all the way to find China Town, just in time for lunch.Su Bin found the "Happy Simple Meal" recommended in the "Strategy", and found that although the store was small, it was full of people. He thought it was so popular here, the taste must be very good, so he hurried in.

The guys in the Chinese restaurant are all Chinese. Su Bin didn't need to worry about how to say "rice with dried plums and pork" in English.

Taking advantage of the interval before the food was served, Su Bin looked at the young people at the cashier in the waiting hall, and felt that they all looked like foreign students.

A girl with a ponytail served food to Su Bin, and Su Bin took the opportunity to ask her, "Did you go to school here?"

"Yes, I work part-time here," the girl asked cheerfully with a smile, "It's the first time I see you, are you new here?"

Su Bin: "You can see this?"

The girl smiled "haha": "M City sounds big, but the circle of Chinese people is quite small. I worked in this restaurant for a year, and regular customers can recognize it...Okay, eat slowly, I want to work , I won’t talk to you now!”

Su Bin smiled apologetically, the girl blinked at him, then turned and went away.

When Su Bin was in China, he heard that nine out of ten college students in country B would work part-time, because the hourly wages here are high, and service jobs are not discriminated against.Working part-time after school can not only exercise yourself, but also earn a little money to supplement food expenses, which is a good thing.

After tasting the plum vegetable pilaf, Su Bin felt that the taste was not bad, but unfortunately it was not delicious enough to surprise him, maybe because the restaurant was opened in a foreign country, and the dishes of this standard were enough to make the overseas students happy.

When we were about to finish eating, the girl with the ponytail seemed to be free, and came over to talk to Su Bin again: "Handsome guy, what's your name?"

Su Bin: "Michael."

The girl asked, "My name is Casey, what school and major did you go to?"

Su Bin: "University M, I study finance." In addition to University M, City M also has a city university, but its reputation and strength are not as good as University M.

Casey said: "I'm from a city university, and the finance department of University M seems pretty good..."

Su Bin didn't want to talk to her about this, so he took the time to ask, "Cathy, I would like to ask you, how much salary do you get for working here?"

Casey froze for a moment, then smiled: "Why, you want to work too?"

Su Bin smiled shyly, and Casey left a mobile phone number in the order book and handed it to him, and said in a low voice, "It's not convenient to say it here, you call me at night, and I'll tell you."

Su Bin gratefully accepted the note, asked Casey to settle the bill for himself, and said, "I'll be shopping around in the afternoon, and I'll contact you in the evening."

Casey smiled and waved at him. When he turned around, he was bumped into by a male employee in the store. He was inevitably ridiculed and said, "Cathy, why did you hook up with a handsome guy after a few minutes? Did you fall in love with him?"

Casey said unhappily: "Go, go, stop talking nonsense, this is a new junior, he wants to work part-time, maybe he will become our colleague tomorrow!"

The male colleague rubbed his chin and shook his head, "How can he look like a person who is short of money? I think it's just a novelty, even if he comes, he won't be able to work for a few days."

Casey: "..."

Yes, the man guessed right, Su Bin is not short of money.

Although Su Bin's family is not rich and powerful, but Su Bin's father has never shorted his son materially. The money he paid Su Bin was not only enough for a year's living expenses in country B, but also allowed Su Bin to occasionally go to nearby A trip to the city, a long experience.

However, Su Bin, who still suffers from a bit of secondary illness, now has a "noble" goal, which is to propose to Chen Xiaotian in a year's time.Since he was asking for marriage, he had to buy a ring. Although he didn't know how much a diamond ring would cost, he thought it shouldn't be cheap.And he would never ask his father for the money for the ring, he had to earn it by his own ability - that's why he just struck up a conversation with Casey.

Eat and drink enough to have the strength to find a job!Su Bin walked around the small Chinatown, and finally found the legendary "Chinese Supermarket", and plunged into it happily. When he came out again, he had no more than a hundred oceans in his pocket.

The exchange rate between country B's currency and RMB is close to 12:1. One hundred oceans means 1000 or two hundred yuan. This money is almost enough for Su Bin's food expenses for a month in China!But in country B, one hundred oceans is only worth two big bags of spices and dry goods... Things like fungus and mushrooms are even more expensive than ginseng and ganoderma in China!

Su Bin walked out of the supermarket with two plastic bags in his hands. Thinking about how fast he was spending money, he felt more and more that there was a long way to go and his future was bleak.

There was a pile of free newspapers at the entrance of the supermarket. Su Bin saw a job advertisement on it, and curiously went over to read it.

【Recruitment 1】

Recruitment requirements: male, no age limit, willing to endure hardship

Job content: move fish

Location and time: Seafood market 20km away from M City, every Sunday morning from 7:12 am to [-]:[-] am.

Salary payment: interview, settlement on the same day.

Contact Number: 0161XXXXXX1 Boss Wang

Su Bin: What is "moving fish"?Could it be... a coolie? (=_=)

But it's too far away from the city, so it looks dangerous...

Su Bin hurriedly skipped it, and looked at the next one——

【Recruitment 2】

Recruitment requirements: men and women are not limited, students are preferred

Job content: hand out leaflets

Location and time: the boss drives to the designated location, 3-4 hours at a time

Salary payment: 7PDS/hour, settled on the same day

Contact Number: 0161XXXXXX2 Boss Li

Su Bin: Converted to 80 yuan an hour?That's almost 4 yuan for 320 hours!It looks like a lot, but what kind of leaflets are they handing out?If it is "anti-party", will my party member status be discriminated against?

Su Bin read a few more articles, and found that most of the recruitments were settled on the same day, and some also indicated cash settlement. He remembered that before going abroad, he had read a message about "working in country B" on the study abroad forum, saying that foreign students must pay for part-time jobs. Apply for an account through the formal channels of the formal department, and then everyone will get an account card, which is equivalent to a bank card, and the money earned from part-time jobs will go into this card. The government of country B restricts the weekly working hours of foreign students. If the time limit is exceeded, money will be deducted, and wages exceeding a certain amount will also be required to pay taxes.If the cash is settled on the spot, it is very likely that the boss hired illegal workers to avoid taxes. Although there are many illegal workers, if they are caught, they will be dealt with seriously and may even be sent back to their country.

Su Bin was timid. Thinking of this, he didn't dare to read the free newspaper. Before he left, he saw that there were many "tire education" propaganda on it, and he didn't dare to stay for a moment. He walked quickly with two bags of heavy objects... …

Halfway through the walk, Su Bin, who was out of breath, realized that something was wrong!

He... he lost his way! (QAQ)
