Cohabitation Guide

The restaurant on Christmas Eve was full as expected. Lu Ruiming’s place is in a good location. The western restaurant on the top floor of the tallest building in the city center has tables by the window. Through the glass, you can overlook the river passing through the city center. The flowing river is dotted with stars The light is on, reflecting the night view of the entire city.

Such a good seat is naturally rare. Even if Lu Ruiming found a relationship, he only booked a table for two. Mr. Li is not the kind of leader who sticks to pomp and circumstance, so he asked the waiter to add a chair and sat on the side first. Lu Ruiming and Shu You sat face to face Down.

This restaurant is very stylish, most of the wines on the wall are expensive, Shu Yi knew at a glance that eating here is definitely not as casual as fast food, he frowned slightly, worried that it would take too long, he hesitated for a second and decided to go with Yu Pei Saying it, thinking for a moment, he turned to Mr. Li: "Mr. Li, do you have the contact information of ONE, the invited guest of the Moon City cooperation project?"

Mr. Li was looking at the menu, and raised his head when he heard the words: "It seems to be there, what's the matter?"

"My mobile phone was unable to turn on due to an accident, and I suddenly remembered that there was a document missing from the Yuecheng project that was sent to ONE." Shu Yi smiled and said nonsense, but his tone was still very serious, "The Yuecheng project is closely followed, remember it Hurry up and remind your partners."

Mr. Li was deceived by his pretentious appearance, and when he wanted to take out his mobile phone, he suddenly realized something: "But I don't have any documents here."

"It's okay." Shu continued to chat nonsense without changing his face, "I'll just let Xiao Li send it over."

"Not good." Mr. Li disagreed, "Disturbing people with work on Christmas Eve."

Shu Yixin thought that you are bothering me with work, what's wrong, he was about to speak again, but Lu Ruiming on the opposite side closed the menu and smiled at Mr. Li: "The lamb chops here are a must, Mr. Li, you can try it."

Mr. Li's attention also shifted accordingly, and he said with a smile: "It's recommended by overseas returnees, so I have to taste it carefully."

As he spoke, he turned to Shu Yi: "Xiao Shu, don't worry about your work. It's delicious when you come to eat. Today we are here to celebrate. Put aside any tasks and projects, it doesn't matter."

After the leader said that, Shu Yi couldn't say anything else, he could only smile and said, "Boss Li is right, I'll enjoy the feast with the two of you today."

The food is served quickly after ordering, and there is not much room for a table for two, but fortunately, it is a Western food, and everyone can lower their heads to process the dishes on their plates, and the table does not seem particularly crowded.

It is impossible to be silent during the dinner with the boss and partners. Shu Yi was too tired to speak after running up and down all afternoon, but fortunately, Mr. Li was good at talking and Lu Ruiming cooperated.The two chatted enthusiastically, which made the table look extraordinarily lively among the whispering candlelight dinner couples. It was not like Christmas Eve, but a bit like the Chinese New Year.

After they chatted happily, Shu Yi also felt relieved, he gave up the idea of ​​finding a topic, and devoted himself to dealing with the food.But he was a little too tired today, and he didn't even seem to have the energy to eat. When the main course was served, his mind was still thinking about the maple biscuits that had passed away, and he had no appetite at all.

Shu Yi cut the steak mechanically with a professional spirit, his ears were pricked up, and he caught the chat between Mr. Li and Lu Ruiming one by one.

Mr. Li was full of praise for the restaurant environment: "Yes, Ruiming, I can book this kind of seat on Christmas Eve."

"My friend's restaurant, by the way, help to save an empty table." Lu Ruiming said.

"Sure enough, the friends of excellent young people are also excellent." Mr. Li sighed, "I was still working for others at your age, and now young people are directly bosses."

Lu Ruiming smiled and said: "My friends are all very good, just look at Deputy Director Shu."

When it was mentioned while eating, Shu You paused, put down the knife and fork, and waited to join the topic.

Sure enough, Mr. Li suddenly realized something, and said with a smile: "I forgot again, Rui Ming, that you and Xiao Shu are classmates. You have such a good relationship."

Lu Ruiming also smiled: "It's not bad."

Shu Yi followed with a polite smile: "Hehe, yes."

Mr. Li became interested, and asked with gestures: "Are you a professional?"

"Yes." Lu Ruiming said, "I changed my major, and I didn't know him very well at first, but there was one guy with a good personality who helped me a lot, and we gradually became acquainted, and then..."

Speaking of this, Lu Ruiming thought of something, bowed his head and smiled.This made Mr. Li even more curious, and asked, "What happened next?"

Shu Yi also looked at Lu Ruiming with a natural expression, but sighed in his heart, hoping that he would not say anything out of line.

Fortunately, Lu Ruiming didn't do that, and only said: "We fought together later, and our friendship became deeper."

Mr. Li was stunned for a moment and said, "You two don't look like the type who can do it... Did you win?"

"I lost the fight, and I went to the hospital." Lu Ruiming smiled, "We really don't know how to fight well, and Mr. Li is sure enough."

This joke was just right, Mr. Li laughed cooperatingly, Shu Yi also laughed along with everyone, during the chat and laughing, Lu Ruiming looked at Shu Yi, his eyes were burning a bit menacing, Shu You ignored it as if he couldn't see it, and stood up with a smile Said: "You guys talk first, I'll go to the bathroom."

He said as he pushed the chair away, the toilet sign was on the left front side, but Shu Yi walked to the right, anyway, the restaurant is in a circular shape, and he can get there in a circle, so he was not in a hurry to go back.

Shu Yi slowed down his pace and glanced at the surrounding situation from time to time. The business was indeed booming on Christmas Eve. In such a high-consumption restaurant, except for one table that was empty, the other tables were either sitting with a happy family of three, or sitting with affectionate feelings. Shu Youben could be one of the young lovers... Thinking of this, he began to crave maple sugar biscuits again, so he retracted his gaze and quickened his pace.

Shu Yi was not really in a hurry. When he entered the bathroom, he opened the door and walked into the only private room without hesitation. He closed the door and buckled the toilet seat, and sat on it almost relaxed.

After sitting down, Shu Yi let out a long breath, and tapped his fingers unconsciously on his knees, not knowing what he was bothering about.

In the private room next door, an unlucky guy who didn't want to go out to deal with the dinner like Shu Yi soon came in. He hurriedly closed the door, and the sound made the toilet seat under Shu Yi tremble.

The person next door was also frightened, cursed in a low voice, his voice was a little hoarse, it sounded like he was in the stage of changing his voice, probably a junior high school student.

Shu Yi sat up straighter, he couldn't stay here all the time, he should go out after a few minutes of rest, but just as he straightened his clothes and got up to open the door, he was stopped by the sound from the cell phone next door.

"Why can't there be a live broadcast on Christmas Eve?" The cold voice came through the wall, and it was very clear in the quiet bathroom.

ONE's voice does not use a voice changer, so it is also Yu Pei's voice.

The people in the next room are watching the live broadcast of ONE.

Realizing this, Shu You must have stayed where he was, and didn't want to go out at once.

Why are you still working on Christmas Eve?

Shu Yi thought unconsciously, but soon realized helplessly that he was also socializing.

Yu Pei's voice continued.

"It's not against the law to start the broadcast without anyone accompanying you."

"Yes, no one is with me."

"Don't watch the fireworks."

"If you don't have a girlfriend, don't scroll through the barrage."

"If you don't go out, just play games."

"With no one to accompany, fight by yourself."

Yu Pei's voice was as cold as ever, but somehow Shu Yi felt a little pitiful, like a puppy thrown at home by its owner.

There was a clanging sound from next door, the junior high school student impatiently kicked the door panel and the toilet, and suppressed the low volume of the mobile phone's external sound, Shu Yi frowned, and reluctantly moved to the side Moved, and did the job of listening to the corner in a very tasteless manner.

But Yu Pei didn't speak anymore, only the sound of the keyboard and mouse could be heard faintly, Shu Yi waited for a while but didn't wait for him to speak again, so he could only open the door regretfully and go out.

When he returned to his position, he found that Mr. Li was gone.

Shu Yi sat down and asked, "Where's Mr. Li?"

"Just now Mr. Li's daughter called to urge him, but he left first." Lu Ruiming said.

"Oh, that's it." Shu Yi felt relieved and said, "Then I too..."

"Are you in a hurry to go back?" Lu Ruiming interrupted him rarely.

After a pause, Shu said tactfully, "It's not in a hurry, I'm a little tired, it's good to be back early."

"There are still two dishes." Lu Ruiming said with a smile, "Dessert is not served, it's too wasteful, try it before leaving."

Shu hesitated for a second, but decided to save some face for Real Estate Channel, and said, "Okay."

Then asked: "When Mr. Li left, did he say that the meal will not be reimbursed?"

The straightforward question made Lu Ruiming smile even wider. He said, "There is no need for reimbursement. I'll just treat this meal. I'll come back to China to meet you."

In this way, the verbal "reception meal" was settled, Shu Yi was happy in his heart, but verbally evaded and said: "How can it be done, I should be the one who invites you, it's so dishonest."

"It's okay, it's enough for you to sit down with me." Lu Ruiming said, "If you really feel sorry, you can invite me again next time."

He wanted to turn the topic on to ambiguity again, Shu Yi sighed, leaned back in the chair, and said, "Mr. Lu, can you stop talking to me like this?"

"What?" Lu Ruiming pretended not to understand.

"You should have seen my circle of friends, and I didn't block you." Shu Yi said without intending to push or pull with him.

"The one with my roommate? I saw it."

"Not a roommate." Shu Yi looked at him and said bluntly.

Lu Ruiming stopped laughing in his sight, changed the subject and said, "It's rare for you to speak so aggressively. The last time I remember it was when I was in college."

Shu Yi didn't answer, Lu Ruiming continued on his own, "Your roommates are talking about your sexuality, I fought with them... I haven't fought, you rushed up and pulled us away, and scolded those few Boys have a meal."

Thinking of the memory, Lu Ruiming smiled lightly: "I was shocked at the time, I didn't expect you to be so good at cursing."

Whether it is a partner or not, Shu Yi couldn't completely lower his face, and said, "Is that so, I don't really remember."

"Yes, you scolded them bloody first, then turned around and asked me if I wanted to go to the hospital. The tone changed too quickly. At that time, I thought...you are so cute."

Lu Ruiming looked over again, with the same look, but this time Shu Yi didn't choose to dodge, he directly met Lu Ruiming's gaze, his eyes were clear and open, and after a while, he smiled politely: "Teacher Lu, I really don't remember .”

Lu Ruiming showed some disappointment on his face, but he still didn't give up and reminded him: "At that time, you were going to watch a movie, but you didn't go after that happened. I still remember what you wanted to watch, it was "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" Well, I couldn't help teasing you at the time, spoiled the ending, and was blamed by you."

Lu Ruiming's words were like thunder, splitting Shu Yi's dusty memory.There was a rattling sound in his head. On the left side was his college self who opened the mailbox and found a message from an Internet addict kid, saying that he would soon become a professional player and was very rich. Would you like to go out and watch a movie? It doesn’t matter if he treats guests, but he may not have this opportunity in the future... On the right is his own time in the hospital to check the time, and found that it is too late, so he can only send a message to say sorry and can’t go, but there is no response from the other side, after that No matter how contacted, there is no more sound...

Scattered memories gathered together, and finally turned into Yu Pei holding the remote control a few days ago, and asked casually: "Have you watched "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", this action scene was shot very well."

How do people who haven't seen it know if it's good or not?

Shu Yi couldn't sit still anymore, the maple syrup biscuits were shaking his body violently in his mind, almost hitting his head with his torso.

Lu Ruiming was still talking, buzzing, very annoying, and he didn't want to hear it.

Shu Yi wanted to make him shut up, but he worked tenaciously rationally, suppressing the desire to yell at him directly. Fortunately, Lu Ruiming seemed to hear his inner voice, and suddenly shut up, and the sound was replaced by a muffled sound .

The sound came through the glass, Shu Yi and Lu Ruiming both turned their heads and looked out the window.

In the night sky outside the window, fireworks bloomed in the sky, and many couples in the restaurant exclaimed in harmony with the atmosphere.

Shu Yi looked at the fireworks, and suddenly two waiters whispered behind him: "Is the guest at table 17 still coming?"

"I don't know, it's set at 08:30, and I asked about the best place to watch the fireworks, but no one has shown up yet."

"Do you want to ask, what is the guest's name? Is his surname Yu..."

"..."

Lu Ruiming watched the fireworks for a while, turned his head and smiled emotionally at Shu: "It's finally here, I don't know if you still remember, you liked these things when you were in college, and you always said you want to watch fireworks at Christmas, I see this restaurant It's very suitable, it's settled, you..."

He stopped suddenly as he was speaking, because Shu Yi stood up, his movements were so quick and reckless, his legs bumped into the table, causing the table to shake slightly.

"I'm going back." Shu Yi said shortly.

"But the dessert hasn't been served yet." Lu Ruiming was shocked, "It's the signature rose dew here, why don't you wait?"

"No, I'd rather eat maple sugar biscuits." Shu Yi quickly said something, "Thank you for the location, the fireworks are beautiful, goodbye."

Lu Ruiming still wanted to persuade him to stay, but Shu Yi left without hesitation. Before the last firework scattered in the night sky, he hastily disappeared at the door.
