Qiao Puyu opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the white ceiling of the hotel.He fell into a deep sleep, his limbs were still a little weak, but his mind was quite clear, and everything that happened yesterday flooded into his mind.He thought of Rong Xu's eyes that didn't show disappointment but was obviously confused, and he just felt relaxed. It would be best if the other party could think about it, he really didn't have the energy to deal with him—he knew that Rong Xu's family was very good, and he was entangled with this kind of person There were no good results, and he also experienced those three years in France.

In those three years, he saw the beauty of art, his soul seemed to be washed by art, and he was extremely satisfied, but what happened to him in the tavern made him feel extremely dirty, and even defiled art.But what to do?He likes to draw, he has liked it since he was a child, and he will continue to like it in the future.Moreover, he has returned home.Across the distant mountains and oceans, no one knew about his experience. In the eyes of others, he could only see his gilded qualifications of studying abroad.He can start from scratch, everything will get better and better, he will make his parents pay back, and the dreams he once embraced will gradually come true.There seemed to be a white canvas in front of him, on which he would paint his life from today on—a brilliance without stains.

Songcheng City is Qiao Puyu's hometown, which is written in his school records.In fact, his family is not in the city, but in Cuishi, a county-level city dozens of kilometers away from the city, and it takes nearly two hours by car.He just got off the plane last night, and he was very jet-lagged. He was too tired, and he was not in good condition. He was not ready to meet his parents, so he stayed in Songcheng City for the next night.After taking a shower in the hotel bathroom and changing into clean plain clothes, Qiao Puyu took the suitcase to the counter and canceled the room. The deposit and the rest of the room money were directly pocketed—the amount was not much anyway, and the person was not will care.

He didn't receive any calls early in the morning. Qiao Puyu smiled lightly when he recalled the way Rong Xu bought a new mobile phone and clumsily typed to send messages to himself when he was in school.Obviously, typing is extremely slow, but the amount of information is not small, and the mailbox of his mobile phone was filled in three days.At that time, I didn't like men, so I refused very simply.Now?He still doesn't like men, but if it's just a spring breeze, he can accept it for a while.His parents are the most traditional and simple farmers, and they have never even heard the word "gay".They paid too much for themselves, and Qiao Puyu made up his mind to get married in the future and "carry on the family line" according to his father's will.

That road is too difficult to walk, even if two people rely on each other, they are still powerless in the face of social public opinion and family pressure, let alone fighting alone.Qiao Puyu himself would never leave, he could see Rong Xu's feelings and loss, but he didn't intend to respond.Although the three years of life in France were painful, it also sharpened him, and made him understand that no one will treat you well for no reason.So when someone shows this kind of heart to you, you don't have to accept it, but you can't use it as a weapon to hurt the other party.There are comparisons that lead to results. In contrast, Rong Xu, who is a bit snarky, is clingy but never too much - he is a good person and has a good family background.He can have a good future instead of going down this dark road.

However, this is his life in the end, and he will walk it by himself.Just like myself, I will go on my own life path.Taking a deep breath, Qiao Puyu walked out of the hotel, waved to hail a taxi, told the driver the destination, and the car started to drive towards Cuishi.

Rong Xu has obviously been idle recently, not because the workload has decreased, but because he has adapted to the weight and rhythm of the work.In Young Master Rong’s view, this job is like running with a load on your body. At first, adding weight to your body will definitely not suit you, and you will feel tired and have difficulty walking.In a word - just get used to it!The work assigned at hand was finished early, and as soon as the bell rang, Rong Xu was the first to rush out of the company holding the car keys.

After the pancake incident last time, he now only goes to one place every day——Chen Kee Noodle House.The company gets off work at 5:7 every day, so he drives faster and can arrive at about 8:10.Have a meal at [-] o'clock and then drive back, and you can get home before [-] o'clock.If you have time, everything will be fine.Since the last meeting, Rong Xu has not contacted Qiao Puyu again, because he is still in a state of confusion.This is probably like a child who sees a piece of colorful candy one day, and is immediately attracted, and drools over the candy with his fingers, thinking that he will eat that piece of candy.But when the child grew up and had more money, he finally bought the candy, but found that both the shape and the taste were far from what he remembered.The disappointment was beyond words, and the great loss made the child fall into confusion.

But Rong Xu was not a child after all, he was just confused for a moment.Although he hadn't figured it out yet, he put it aside for now because he saw something more appealing to him now.For example, the bowl of beef noodles placed in front of his eyes.Rong Xu raised his head and met Chen Qing's fair and ordinary face. The other party smiled cautiously, put down the wooden chopsticks and went on to do other things.

Now the time is a little after 7 o'clock, and the nearby middle school ends at 6 o'clock. I have been busy for an hour, until Rong Xu came, and the number of people around 7 o'clock gradually decreased.The weather is getting colder and colder, and the business of the noodle shop is getting better and better.In this bitingly cold weather, sit down in a warm and wind-shielding small restaurant and have a bowl of steaming and fragrant beef noodles.After taking a sip of hot soup, the fragrance of the teeth and cheeks will remain, and the body will feel warmer, so that you will feel alive.Especially Chen Qing's craftsmanship is really good, so the business of his noodle shop has always been very good, and even slightly surpassed the old shops on both sides.It's just that he runs a small business by himself, and no matter how good the business is, he can only earn so much.

The students gradually went home, and the business of the noodle shop gradually cooled down.Usually around 8:10, Chen Qing closes the door and starts preparing materials for tomorrow. After all, this is just a facade he rents. The place where he lives for cheap rent is very remote. After finishing preparations at 11:[-], it is almost [-]:[-] when he lives. It is time to go to bed. , I have to get up early the next day.Cui City is a small place, and it is rare to see a small restaurant like Chen Ji Noodle Restaurant specializing in one kind of food. If there is one, it must be a well-known and time-honored brand, such as the Bao's soup dumpling across the street from the station.The taste is very pure and delicious, the business has been very good, every morning is full of people.Their soup dumplings are only available until noon, and sometimes they close before noon because the ingredients are sold out.A few hours of business is more than what a restaurant like Chen Qing can earn in a day.

Chen Qing's noodle restaurant has only been open for two years, and word of mouth has just spread. Obviously, he has no qualifications and only sells noodles.Not only him, many small restaurants are like this, buying all kinds of snacks, wine and vegetables, and staple food.Chen Qing mainly sells pancakes and porridge. There are various flavors of porridge: sweet and salty, glutinous rice and black rice, cowpea and mung bean. .Not to mention delicious, it is also nutritious. You won’t get tired of eating it in summer, and you will feel warm and comfortable in your stomach after eating it in winter.

I have to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning, and start busy after eating something in a hurry. The early hours are undoubtedly the busiest.After a period of leisure, Chen Qing lay down on the table to rest for a while. At noon, the number of customers eating noodles gradually increased and he was busy again. It lasted until school was over at around 6 pm, and the business of the store entered another peak period.After a busy day like this, with little time to rest, Chen Qing, who is thin and thin, really can't bear it.

Seeing that person from last night—hmm... his name is Rong Xu, right—and driving here tirelessly just for a bowl of beef noodles...Chen Qing really didn't know what to say.However, no matter which chef it is, it will be happy to see that its cooking skills are liked by others.The same is true for Chen Qing, who has put in a lot of hard work for this.My arms were sore, and I could barely lift them up after relaxing.But Chen Qing pursed her lips, still kneading the dough in her hand steadily.The kneading circle is elongated, one stack is two, two stacks are four, three stacks are eight... Chen Qing has not been lazy at all, even though he was very tired, he still finished this bowl of ramen meticulously.In the end, the dough that unfolded in his hands has become countless strands of ramen that are uniform in thickness, firm and elastic.Put the noodles into the pot after the water is boiled, and cook for a while after the white floats, and the noodles are cooked.

With celadon white background, stewed meat in clear soup, fragrant and steaming beef noodles were finally placed in front of Rong Xu.Young Master Rong looked at the steaming beef noodles, tears almost flowed down like saliva - this is the taste!It's not easy!After thinking about it for so long, he finally ate it, woo woo woo...it's delicious!

Chen Qing was not idle, business was good today, the ramen was sold out, Rong Xu ate the last bowl, he was eating noodles over there, Chen Qing took a basin of water and started cleaning the table.After Chen Qing cleaned a table, he straightened his sore waist, turned around with the basin in his hand, and faced the Rongxu card pillar standing straight.

"Ah!" Chen Qing cried out in surprise, calmed down after seeing that it was Rong Xu, and asked patiently: "Well...do you have something to do?" Didn't I already give it to you...

An empty bowl suddenly appeared in front of Chen Qing—it was really an empty bowl, the clear soup was completely drunk, not even a chopped green onion was left.Chen Qing raised his head and met Shang Rongxu's aggrieved eyes as he bit the wooden chopsticks.He opened his mouth with infinite resentment: "There are no more noodles...I'm not full yet..." I was so happy with the meal just now that I forgot to order other dishes, only to find that I was not even half full after eating.Young Master Rong regretted only biting the wooden chopsticks.Holding the empty porcelain bowl in one hand, he said confidently, "One more bowl!"

"..."

"..."

The two of them carried the pots one by one, touched the bowls by the other, and stared at each other.In the end, it was Chen Qing who said in a low voice: "The noodles are sold out, you are eating the last one..." The gaze of the person opposite was even more resentful, and the wooden chopsticks made the sound of being overwhelmed and being bitten off.Chen Qing expressed that it was very stressful to be looked at by such hungry green eyes, as if he was his food.But he still bite the bullet, and continued to be realistic under pressure: "Not only the noodles, but also the vegetables are all sold out..."

"Crack!" The wooden chopsticks were finally bitten off completely, and half of his body fell to the ground with a clear "crack".
