arrogant

Pei Heyang put his hands in his trouser pockets and waited for Chi Yue's answer.

Chi Yue quickly searched for the big shovel mentioned by the other party in his mind, recalled what he said to the police just now, and nodded, "Well, occasionally, they usually eat a lot."

"So that's how it is." Pei Heyang understood, but didn't believe it, so he casually said, "He looks quite cute."

"It's okay." Chi Yue thought of Bai Bulaji and Hei Buliuqiu's appearance, like a proud old father, with a smile on his lips.

"Let's go." Pei Heyang turned his head towards him, "I'm just hungry.

Chi Yue heard it, but he didn't move his feet. He stared at the back of the boy's head in front of him for two full seconds before following.

The street police station was not far from the ramen restaurant, and the two of them strolled back as they had when they came.

It's noon, the sun is shining brightly, and there is nothing to do on the road except for people looking for food.The heels of Pei Heyang's dark green army runners were also pulled up, his laziness disappeared, and he looked quite energetic.

The two walked one after the other for two to three minutes without speaking.

Pei Heyang stopped suddenly, pointing to the missing person notice on the telephone pole, "Hey, this guy doesn't look forty, he's thirty at most."

Chi Yue walked over and took a closer look, "It is indeed forty. This uncle lives near here, and his mind is not very clear. He has been lost for more than two weeks."

"Hey, poor." Pei Heyang sighed, moved to the left, and walked side by side with Chi Yue.

"He used to come to my noodle shop for dinner, and he was very obedient with his mother." Chi Yue explained, "These mother has been running outside every day for the past two weeks, but she couldn't find it."

"Didn't call the police? There are cameras all over the road now, so you should be able to find out where you went." Pei Heyang turned his head and said.

Chi Yue nodded, "I called the police, and later I heard that I went to a camera blind spot."

"Hey, Xiao Chi, are you going shopping with your friends?" Aunt Wang, who lives next door to Chi Yue's house, came to meet her, holding a large bag of vegetables in her hand.

Before Chi had time to explain, Aunt Wang was about to pass by, so he could only simply reply, "Ah yes, Aunt Wang."

"Let's go, let's go, it's fun." Aunt Wang waved to him and continued to walk forward.

The discussion about the missing person was interrupted by the aunt who met halfway. Pei Heyang took his hands out of his trouser pockets, crossed his fingers, and stretched them out, "Are you quite famous in this area?"

Chi Yue turned his head and glanced at him, and replied, "It's okay, I grew up here."

"You just said that your family opened a noodle restaurant?" Pei Heyang saw the street sign on the side of the road, thought of something, and asked, "Nearby?"

"Yes, you can see it after passing the intersection ahead." Chi Yue frowned, a little worried about his two cat sons.

There were so many scumbags just now, could they be frightened?

Thinking of this, Chi Yue picked up his pace.

Pei Heyang's legs were already longer than his, so he followed steadily.

After passing the intersection and walking a little further, Chi Yue stopped at the entrance of the alley and called into it, "Xiaobai, Xiaohei."

No cat responded.

Just as he was about to run over, his arm was suddenly held, and a heavy force came through the cotton cloth.

"In front." Pei Heyang pulled the person in front of him, and pointed his other finger forward, "Is it those two?"

Chi Yue swallowed his throat and looked up. Not far away, under the big tree in front of his ramen restaurant, two kittens, one black and one white, stood side by side, looking at him.

I don't know what's going on, but Chi Yue just feels a surge of emotion in his chest, and he can't explain it clearly.

I don't know if I am worried about the two cats, or because of something else.

Chi Yue raised his right hand and pressed it on the back of his neck, turned his head, pretending to be relaxed, "Let them play there, go in and eat noodles."

Pei Heyang looked at the palm of his left hand, his fingertips trembled unnoticed, and walked into the noodle restaurant with a hidden smile on his lips.

It's more than half of the lunch time, and there are not as many customers in the store as before. As soon as he entered the door, Chi Yue chose a seat by the window, pulled out the chair, "Sit here, and cool off."

After walking under the sun for almost 10 minutes, the sweat on Pei Heyang's back had indeed soaked his T-shirt. He sat on the chair that Chi Yue had just pulled out, and pulled out the menu standing by the table.

"Spicy food?" Chi Yue took out two bottles of Coke from the drink cabinet and put one in front of him.

"Eat." Pei Heyang unscrewed the Coke and drank half of the bottle in one go, "Can I have two more bowls?"

Chi Yue sat down opposite him and smiled, "A few bowls are fine."

"Hurp." He Yang twisted the cap on the bottle contentedly, "Then I won't be polite."

Xiao Guo'er finished paying the customer's bill and came out from the cash register, "Brother Chi, you've done the math, I'm running out of brains, and you can see if the bill is correct in a while."

"Don't worry, your brains are definitely enough." Chi Yue took two sips of Coke and said, "First, two bowls of beef ramen, one catty of sauced beef, and two random cold dishes. I'll add more later."

"Okay, Brother Chi, I'll get it right now." Xiao Guoer nodded to them, and walked towards the back kitchen with a smile.

Pei Heyang leaned on the back of the chair and carefully observed the shop. The area is not small, the layout is square, and the twenty or so square tables are placed neatly. .

He realized that the business here should not be bad.

Chi Yue rested his arms on the table, his eyes fell on Pei Heyang's face, "Why are you looking so carefully?"

"Study and study." Pei Heyang touched his head, his palms were itchy from the hair.

Chi Yue deliberately teased him, "You want to steal my business?"

"No way, I just want to ask if I can come to work with you." Pei Heyang said with a smile.

"You want to work part-time?" Chi Yue didn't see any intention of joking, so he was a little dazed.

"Yes, I ran away from home and have no money. Can I work here?" Pei Heyang asked.

Chi Yue didn't say anything, and the two fell silent.

After a while, while he was still thinking about how to answer this question, Xiao Guo'er came over with two big bowls of ramen, "Okay, okay, brother Chi, you two eat while it's hot."

"Thank you!" Pei Heyang raised his hand towards Xiao Guo'er, feeling a little bit early.

He took out two pairs of chopsticks from the small wooden rail, threw a pair to Chi Yue, broke a pair by himself, and started to scoop up noodles.

Chi Yue stared at the person across from him and devoured it, the shadow in his mind suddenly became a little trance, and subconsciously asked, "Why did you run away from home?"

Pei Heyang raised his face, took a sip of the noodles, and said, "My dad married a young daughter-in-law, it was inconvenient to stay at home, so he came out."

Chi Yue pushed a plate full of sauced beef in front of his bowl, "Then you eat more."

Pei Heyang glanced at him, picked up several slices with one chopstick, and stuffed them into his mouth, just like the reincarnation of a hungry wolf.

The bowl in front of Chi Yue's eyes barely moved. He had been thinking about whether what Pei Heyang said just now was true or not.

"Aren't you hungry?" Pei Heyang asked seeing that he hadn't spoken or moved his chopsticks.

"What you just said is true?" Chi Yue asked directly.

Pei Heyang paused while holding the chopsticks, and smiled, "Has anyone ever joked with you about this kind of family affairs?"

"That's not true." Chi Yue said, "I mean, if you really need to work, you can come to our store, and the salary should be enough to support yourself."

From the moment he said this to the affirmative answer, Pei Heyang thought about it, but it took only a few minutes.

The noodles in his mouth were chewed to pieces, he lowered his head and picked up a large chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth.

He and Chi Yue, except for the few games they played together before, didn't have much in-depth chat.But even such a person who is not familiar with him is better than his father.Pei Heyang thought of the quarrel with the old man before going out, and curled the corners of his lips in a self-deprecating manner.

"You don't need me to sign the deed of sale?" Pei Heyang asked jokingly.

"You can do it if you want." After Chi Yue finished speaking, he also moved his chopsticks.

Pei Heyang looked at him, smiled and said nothing, and continued to eat sullenly.

I only finished half a bowl on my side, and there was only soup base left in the bowl of the boy opposite, so Chi Yue raised his hand to greet Xiao Guo.

"I'm full." Pei Heyang lowered his arm, "Just kidding, I ate almost all of this big plate of beef."

Chi Yue glanced at the small dish with only a few slices of sauced beef left and asked, "Like this?"

Pei Heyang raised his thumb and said honestly: "This beef sauce is really amazing."

Chi Yue scooped up some noodles with chopsticks and drank the soup in the bowl before putting down the chopsticks.He wiped a tissue to his mouth and asked, "When do you want to come to work?"

Pei Heyang didn't expect him to take this matter seriously, so he thought for a while and answered, "Will it be done next week? I'm looking for a house near here, which is also close to my school. By the way, I still have to go to school and work part-time Can the time be arranged after five o'clock, I can work the night shift."

What he said made Chi Yue's heart twist. He had to go to school and work at the same time. He was really good at being a father.However, it is not up to outsiders to meddle in this kind of family affairs.

"Okay, then contact me after you find the house." After finishing speaking, Chi Yue took out his phone, opened WeChat, "Add a friend."

Hearing that he offered to add his contact information, Pei Heyang was taken aback, pretending to be calm, took out his mobile phone, and scanned his QR code, "Okay."

After adding friends, Pei Heyang held up his mobile phone, and his fingertips visibly shook a few times.

Chi Yue clicked on his profile picture, noted a name, and asked, "Is your school near here? The High School Affiliated to Linda University or No. [-] Middle School?"

Two to three kilometers around the noodle shop, there are two middle schools, both of which are among the best in Lincheng. Chi Yue also mentioned it casually. After asking, he felt redundant, because he had studied in the high school attached to Linda University for five years and had never met Pei Heyang. .

After fiddling with the phone, Pei Heyang looked up at him, "The High School Affiliated to Linda University."

Chi Yue frowned, "Huh?"

Pei Heyang leaned back on the chair, folded his arms around his chest, and said with a smile: "The procedure was done last week, Class Three, Class Three."

Chi Yue was stunned.

This means that in the coming year, the two of them will get along day and night as classmates.

I thought it was just a little effort to help, but I didn't expect such a follow-up.

Chi Yue smiled, "That's a coincidence, I'm also in the third year of high school, class three."
