nosy on you

Dinner on the eve of the holiday

The rigor felt a little speechless. This group of people didn't like to close their doors no matter whether the air conditioner was turned on or not.

An uninvited guest can easily enter the room without even breaking the door.

The back door street has been walked many times, except for the two rows of trees, there are residential buildings next to each other. I walked all the way carefully, and I could feel that Gu Xi didn't look at him from the corner of my eyes.

The shopping mall is quite deserted, and there are more shopping guides than there are shopping customers. The dining area on the fifth floor is a bit more lively, but only compared to other floors.

There is no need to queue up during the evening rush hour on Sunday, and I don't know how these merchants operate until now.

Xie Yang and the others strutted into the shop, and the waiter brought them to a table for six. Li Lei hurriedly added: "The three of us are foodies, and a table for four is just right, otherwise we can't fit too many things. .”

"Okay, then arrange a table for four and a table for two." The waiter smiled and nodded, and changed them to a booth by the window.

Rigorously pulling the corners of his mouth and forcing a smile, he sat down at the small table next to him.

This cafeteria is small in scale, and the dishes it serves are not very high-end, but the price is cheap, and 49 yuan per person can be regarded as very conscientious.

As soon as the tableware was set, Zhang Chao, like a reform-through-labor prisoner who had just been released half an hour ago, dragged them along to fetch food.

"What do you want to eat?" Yan Jing stood up, "I'll get it for you."

"I want a Boston lobster, a geoduck..." Gu Xi looked up at him, "I want a tuna salad."

"Sir, please go out and turn right to the Japanese grocery store next door, thank you." Yan Jing squinted at him and walked to the cooked food area. When he passed the bar, he saw the chef cutting salmon.

Get him a copy.

Yan Jing has never eaten these sashimi, and does not know the difference in taste between salmon and tuna.

The chef just cut out two small butterflies and was snatched away by the middle-aged woman who was guarding the side. After waiting rigorously for a minute, the woman came back and killed him. If there is no glass to separate it, I feel that she can go directly to the pot and serve the piece of fish. up.

This time, he was strict and not polite. As soon as he lifted the plate in the chef's hand, he cut off his beard in the middle of the journey with lightning speed. The woman gave him an unhappy look.

Boston lobsters certainly weren't there, but he found gibbons in the oven.

What is Xiangbabang?

tsk...

He chose two of his favorite hot dishes, and returned to his seat with four plates in his hands. Gu Xi was staring at his phone intently, as if he was following a drama, but he didn't understand a word of the dialogue chattering through the speakers.

"You don't have what you want, let's make do with it..." Yan Yan said, "I'll get some barbecue later."

"I said it casually..." Gu Xi looked up at the dishes on the plate, "The dishes you picked won't pay back their cost. Stir-fried tripe with green peppers, braised pork ribs, these are all home-cooked dishes."

"The salmon and shrimp are for you." Yan Jing moved the home-cooked food to his face.

Gu Xi looked the same as usual, he was still so sloppy, and he felt relieved when he was rigorous. Gu Xi said that he was a friend, but his expectations seemed to exceed the category of friends.

He admitted that he had thoughts about Gu Xi, but he couldn't tell whether this thought could be classified as "like".

After all, he has never tried to "like" someone since he grew up.

"Salmon should be dipped in wasabi and soy sauce." Gu Xi peeled a shrimp and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Oh..." Strictly sighed, "I'll adjust it for you."

He walked to the seasoning section and glanced at it. There was a label on the front of each seasoning. He poured some soy sauce into the plate, picked up a thing that looked like toothpaste, and looked at it for a long time.

Is this mustard?How much should I put?

He squeezed a portion according to the amount for brushing his teeth, found a small fruit fork and stirred it a few times, feeling a little thin, and added five or six times before stopping in satisfaction.

There was no line at the barbecue station, so he hurried over to order two steaks and grilled oysters.

"These two are freshly made. If you like it, I'll go there later..." Yan Yan looked at the pile of shrimp shells on the table and frowned, "Can't you put them on a plate? It's so ugly."

"The waiter will come to clean up." Gu Xi took the soy sauce and wasabi, rolled a piece of salmon on the plate, chewed a few mouthfuls, and suddenly narrowed his eyes, and two lines of hot tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

"Is it so delicious?" Yan Jing looked at him in surprise, "It moved you to tears."

"I'm so touched..." Gu Xi roared with a flushed face, "I'm killing you, how much fucking mustard did you put in it!"

Yan Jing was stunned for a moment, then leaned on the back of the chair and began to laugh, laughing so hard that he couldn't stop.

The cups on the table were empty, and he had to help himself if he wanted to drink water. He hurried back with two glasses of iced cola, but Gu Xi recovered quickly, probably the effects of mustard and chili are different.

Li Lei and his table definitely don't have to worry about not getting their money back, they turned over the table several times in less than half an hour.

To be honest, the taste of hot dishes is really not good, and I didn’t smell the aroma when I carefully opened the lid of the dining stove. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a taste like chewing wax.

"The trip organized by the company next month..." He picked up the last piece of ribs and gnawed reluctantly, "Will you go?"

"Not necessarily..." Gu Xi wiped her mouth, "It depends on where to go."

"I heard it's going to the beach..." Yan Jin put down his chopsticks and took a sip of Coke, "I'm looking forward to it."

"You seem to like the sea very much..." Gu Xi recalled the rigorous WeChat profile picture, which should be of a water house in the Maldives, "You've never seen the real sea, right?"

"I've seen it, I've been to Haiwan Park..." Yan Yan said, "When I was young, my parents said that if I got full marks in the exam, they would take me to the beach to play. Never mentioned it."

Gu Xi didn't speak, feeling a little uncomfortable.

In fact, there are several coastal cities in the province, and it only takes three hours to get there by car from the strict hometown. Going to see the sea is only a small requirement for children of ordinary families.

But even such a small request could not be satisfied even after he worked hard to get a perfect score in the test.

"I have no chance or money to travel..." Yan Jing looked embarrassed, "When I first started working, I was thinking that when I save enough money, I must go to the most beautiful beach."

"Then you have to work harder..." Gu Xi laughed, "The number one beach in my impression is Tahiti, which is an archipelago in the South Pacific Ocean. Among other things, the round-trip air ticket alone is enough. That's ten or twenty thousand."

"Ah?" Yan Jing seemed to be frightened, "The travel fare is so expensive, I'd better set a small goal first."

"I'll treat you to this meal." Gu Xi beckoned to the waiter.

I wanted to support his small goal and bought the order first, but Yan Yan refused to agree to anything, and felt that if the fight continued, the two of them would probably fight on the spot.

Before going to work, many colleagues had already heard the news, and now they all gathered in front of the bulletin board in the passage.

Gu Xi leaned over and took a look.

The travel time was set after the National Day Golden Week, and all employees set off in two batches. The itinerary was only three days and two nights, and the destination was a seaside town more than 400 kilometers away from City C.

He has never been there before, nor is he interested in participating in such group activities, but this time he plans to go with Rigorous.

During this period of time, Gu Xi has been honestly staying at work in the park, even eating and going to the bathroom, the two of them went in and out together, but they were strict and never went to his room again.

Although he really wanted to investigate as a friend whether the environment in 502 was suitable for human survival, but he finally gave up at the thought of breaking free from the shackles at any time.

I don't know if it's because Gu Xi followed him inseparably. Recently, Li Lei always left alone after work, and his mood was obviously a little depressed, as if he had returned to the state when he first met him.

Several times when he came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, he found large bruises on his waist and legs.

But every time he was asked, he would keep silent, his strict and nosy energy was like a vajra flame whirlwind punching on the cotton wool, with nowhere to use his strength.

Although I was worried, I always felt a bit self-defeating after asking too many questions.

Tomorrow is the National Day holiday, and the holiday was canceled due to travel, but I didn't think it was a pity to be rigorous.

Every year during the Golden Week, no matter where he goes, there are huge crowds of people, and he really doesn't want to go out to join in the excitement.

Switching to the morning shift this week, his cell phone rang right after he came out of the warehouse. He carefully clicked on the screen and looked, it turned out to be a WeChat message from Chang Feng.

-Fool, I'm at the gate of the park, get out of here quickly.

Chang Feng said on the phone before that Chang's father ordered him to go home before the end of August, otherwise his source of income would be cut off, but this happened last month.

Afterwards, the two of them didn't contact each other again, and Yan Jing always thought that he was still hiding in the field and wanted to struggle to the death, but he didn't expect to surrender so soon.

- You lost this fight too quickly, when did you come back?

As soon as the news was sent out, Gu Xi walked over with a stretched waist, and mumbled something with a cigarette in his mouth: "It's a bit early for dinner now, let's go and sit in your room."

Yan Jing hurriedly put the phone into his pocket: "Well, I have something to go out for a while, you can eat dinner by yourself."

He didn't know why he had to act like a thief.

I just feel guilty.

"Who should I contact?" Gu Xi narrowed his eyes and stared at him, seeming a little unhappy, "Where are you going, take me with you, I just want to go out for a stroll."

"I made an appointment with a friend..." He paused, Gu Xi left for half a month after answering Chang Feng's call last time, if he brought him along this time, this person might really disappear for 16 years, "You don't know each other, so it's not appropriate to go."

The phone rang again, and I didn't dare to take it out to look at it rigorously.

"Okay, look, you're nervous..." Gu Xi threw the cigarette butt into the trash can, turned his face and walked towards the dormitory, "Those who don't know think you are the leader of some secret service agency, hurry up, don't let others It's been a long time."

Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and watched him go far before turning around and taking a step.
