[K Mo] Open the door, send a courier!

26.

When the weather completely warmed up, Hao Mei received a condolence gift from her hometown, a large box of fruit.

Apples, oranges, bananas, strawberries, pineapples, photos of your date, everything...huh?etc? ?Something strange seems to have been mixed in.

Hao Mei pinched the thick stack of photos that had been poured out of the envelope, and was speechless for a moment.

There is also a book attached to the photo - it is mother Hao's handwriting, and it is full of comments on the handsome men and beautiful women in the photo. Mrs. Zhao's daughter is the most lively and lovely, but her personality is too childish; what Mr. Cao His son, Yibiao, loves animals, but unfortunately sometimes his brain is not very bright, and he said a lot, but no one liked it in the end. At the end of the letter, he said loudly: "It's really hard to find a partner for you."

Hao Mei: ……………………

Mother Hao’s self-entertainment lasted for several weeks, and each time she attached a bunch of photos and letters to the condolences, first a box of fruit, then a box of frozen seafood, and then a box of snacks.

I have to say that Mrs. Hao really knows her own son very well, and knows that if she wants to send food to foodies, she will not be rejected.

"Let my mother calm down," Hao Mei finally couldn't stand it anymore and called his father: "Is it because our restaurant is about to close down because no one comes to it, so she is so free!"

"Don't give me a crow's mouth, brat!! Our business is going well!!" Dad Hao said angrily, "Your mother is also concerned about your life's major events, you have to listen with an open mind."

"What are you listening to? Every time she sends a bunch of photos, she rejects them all one by one," Hao Mei scratched her hair: "This is not okay, and that is not appropriate. She made me feel like I should I'll be a bachelor for the rest of my life!"

"Isn't she asking too much for you?" Dad Hao said earnestly: "Your mother told me that she must take care of you and pamper you. Her personality must be more mature than yours, and she must not be too childish. Women must be lively and beautiful, while men To be tall and handsome, you have to be able to cook."

"I rely on you to let her be more realistic!" Hao Mei complained: "Is there really such a person who can fall in love with your son? What are you trying to do?"

Hao's father said calmly: "I think so too."

It is rare for the Hao family and his son to reach a consensus on an issue, but it makes people really unhappy-why does it feel like they are rushing to run on themselves?

It was rare for his son to take the initiative to call home. Father Hao couldn't help but get carried away. He started talking about old topics: "What do you think about the thing I told you during the Chinese New Year? You don't really want to send Express delivery for a lifetime? If you really love this job, work hard at the top of your company. Young people must be enterprising. Do you know that the boss of your company is always the son of Professor Xiao? You see, he is about the same age as you and has a successful career The family is happy, and my son is almost ready to make soy sauce..."

As soon as Hao Mei heard this topic, her mind was full of confusion, and she wished to hang up the phone quickly: "Yes, I know, I know, I'm delivering a package to a client here, so I won't tell you more."

He promised that he knew it, but he forgot it as soon as he hung up the phone.

It's too brain-intensive to think about the future, so it's better to think about something lighter, such as what to eat tonight.

There are not many parcels in this area today, Hao Mei completed the task early, and rode a bicycle to the food stall leisurely, her head was full of menus, and she was still humming a little song-in fact, life now is quite good , After co-renting, the rent pressure is reduced by half. I can save a lot of salary every month. Three meals a day and housework are all arranged by KO. The small life is not nourishing. Who else can I look for?What bike do you want?

But there is an old saying that goes, "There are unpredictable things in the sky, but people have misfortunes and blessings." Hao Mei had just ridden halfway when she received an inexplicable phone call. The name on the caller ID was KO, but when she answered, it was a girl's voice. Chirping very anxiously.The old residential area Hao Mei passed by was demolished by residents, and the signal was notoriously poor. A sentence in the receiver was jammed into countless syllables, tormenting Hao Mei's eardrums like glass shards.

"Hello? Hello?? Who??" Hao Mei raised her voice into the phone: "I can't hear you? Who are you? Where is KO?"

Maybe it was because the signal was too bad. Before I could hear the reason, the phone was disconnected, leaving a beeping busy tone.

Hao Mei was facing the phone, her mind full of question marks, the voice just now was vaguely familiar, it seemed to be a student girl from a food stall.

Just as he was wondering, his palm trembled. It was a text message from KO's number. Hao Mei was stunned when she opened it—"Hello, I am KO's colleague. He is injured and is in the hospital. Can I trouble you?" Come here?" The name and address of the hospital are also attached below, which is the Third New Citizen's Hospital not far from the food stall.

KO injured? ?Where did it hurt?Is it serious? ?

Hao Mei panicked all of a sudden, picked up her mobile phone and hurried to the hospital.It was rush hour, and the road was heavily trafficked. Hao Mei didn't care too much, and rushed straight to the red light. He didn't know how many violation tickets were taken by electronic cameras along the way.

What can a chef be hurt by staying in the kitchen? KO is very skilled in cooking, it is impossible to cut himself, right?Hao Mei's mind was in a turmoil, and from time to time, some news that he had seen in the newspaper popped up-some gang fights in the underworld and roadside stalls, some robbers angrily stabbed a small vendor with eighteen knives, and so on, he scared himself out of his mind .

Hao Mei rushed to the hospital in a hurry, and went straight to the surgical treatment room according to the content of the text message. Seeing that KO was sitting upright, but his right hand was covered with a layer of gauze, the big stone hanging in his heart fell down, and his nerves felt tense. He relaxed, and almost fell to the ground with his feet limp, but fortunately KO came up to him with quick eyes and hands to support him.

"Brother Mei?" The school girl and boy who worked at the food stall just came in from the door, and said in unison, "Why are you here?"

Hao Mei was still breathing, and said urgently to the student girl: "Didn't you call!"

"That's right..." the student girl blinked: "But I'm calling Brother KO's girlfriend?"

"I—" Hao Mei suddenly realized that the last time KO played with him and changed her number in the address book to "dear", and never changed it back.Facing the oolong in front of her, Hao Mei was tongue-tied, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said bravely: "He, his girlfriend can't come because of something, let me have a look..."

"No way, KO didn't come here when he was injured, this girlfriend is incompetent!" The student sighed, "We still hope to take this opportunity to witness KO's sister-in-law's demeanor."

It's really rude to say such things in front of the KO, the student girl elbowed the boy who couldn't speak, trying to smooth things over: "There must be something important to come so I can't come, besides, Brother Mei, isn't he here?" ?”

The student curled his lips and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law KO is sister-in-law KO, Brother Mei is brother Mei, why is this the same..."

KO took the medical records and bills from the student, and said solemnly, "It's the same."

27.

During the peak dinner hours, the food stalls cannot be short-handed, and the students and girls hand over various matters to Hao Mei and retreat quickly.

Hao Mei hurried on the road, her face was still a little pale, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead: "What's wrong with your hand? It doesn't matter, right?"

"Scald," KO wiped Hao Mei's face with a tissue with his uninjured left hand: "A little skin injury, don't worry."

"Can you not be worried? I didn't tell me what happened in the text message." Hao Mei took KO's medical records casually and fanned them: "How could it be scalded when it's so good? Did it get burned while cooking?"

KO shook his head: "An apprentice accidentally knocked over the oil pan, and I was splashed when I went up to pull him."

Hao Mei, the two apprentices at the food stall, both recognized them. They were very young and had never read any books.

"Oh, I usually tell them to be more careful." Hao brows smacked his tongue: "How is that apprentice? Is he also injured?"

"He's a little more serious, and he's still hanging water next door." KO sighed, "I hope it won't affect his future work."

Hao Mei was speechless: "What time is this and you still want to go to work, as long as you are free."

"If you don't want to," KO pursed his lips. "He's too young, and he won't be wanted anywhere except food stalls."

Hao Mei opened her mouth, and didn't know what else to say, so she sat down and studied the contraindications written by the doctor. After a long silence, she suddenly said, "You were...was it the same..."

KO sat aside and was stunned: "What is it?"

"It's just..." Hao Mei lowered her head, subconsciously ravaging the corners of her clothes with her hands: "I went out to work when I was very young..."

——Have you ever had nowhere to go when you were 14, and you could only live in places like the backstreet? Have you ever knocked over a frying pan and cut your fingers?When you are sick or injured, are you still full of fear and fear of being fired by your boss?

"I can't help it, I always have to eat." KO saw Hao Mei's face of bitterness and hatred, and couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed his head: "It's not as miserable as you think. The owner of the restaurant took me in. The owner himself is an old chef. He is very kind and taught me all the skills. Later, when he got older, he even introduced me to work in other restaurants before closing. At least he has a place to stay all these years , so as not to starve and suffer from cold.”

KO said it calmly, but Hao Mei knew that being a chef is a profession that requires hard work, and the hard work of being alone for more than ten years cannot be explained in a few words.

"I told you before, I also learned to cook from my dad when I was young." Hao Mei sniffed: "But I didn't want to do it after learning for a long time, and I didn't listen to him, so I ran out to school by myself Looking for a job, I only care about my own comfort...Compared with you, I feel that I am really low."

"Don't do what you don't want to do," KO gently pulled the ravaged clothes out of Hao Mei's hand, and took the other's hand with the opportunity: "If you still have a choice, just do what you want thing."

"But in fact, I didn't become a courier because I wanted to be a courier." Hao Mei was immersed in her entanglement, letting KO hold his hand: "My dad always makes me think about what I want to do, don't waste my youth .But this kind of thing is not something you can think of just by thinking..."

"This is not wasting youth." KO squeezed Hao Mei's hand comfortingly: "You are working hard every day, supporting yourself, being passionate about life and the people around you, and growing every day. I think this is very Well, you can think about things in the future slowly, don't worry."

Unexpectedly receiving such a compliment, Hao Mei scratched her hot cheek uncomfortably: "It's not as good as you said."

KO raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled deep into his eyes: "It was good in the first place."

28.

Hao Mei helped KO get the medicine, paid the medical fee, and carefully took notes according to the pharmacy's instructions, which medicine is taken internally, which medicine is applied externally, whether the medicine taken internally is taken before or after meals, and the medicine for external application is changed several times a day , All items are recorded in the mobile phone.When he returned to the surgery room, the apprentice had finished hanging the water, and was hastily bowing and apologizing to KO.

KO usually has no temper. When encountering a question of principle, he will still be very serious. He reprimanded him with a straight face: "How many times have I told you to concentrate on cooking? What's the use of crying after suffering?"

The child was thin, with a sallow complexion, and his entire right arm was covered with bandages. Standing under the pale lights of the hospital, his appearance of about to cry was even more pitiful.

Hao Mei couldn't help but bring the appearance in front of her back into the childhood of KO, she subconsciously felt distressed, and walked over to comfort her: "It's okay, the young man recovers quickly, and he will recover soon. KO is also for your own good." That’s why I said that, after all, I’m a chef, so you should take good care of your hands.”

With red eyes, the apprentice looked at Hao Mei pitifully, lowered his head and nodded: "Thank you, Brother Mei."

In the end, Hao Mei specially called a car to take the apprentice home, and then pushed her own car and KO back home slowly.

"Children will not have a long memory if they are not trained," KO said a little annoyed for some reason, "Today is all his fault."

"That's what I said, but it's too pitiful to be punished after being injured," Hao Mei couldn't bear it: "Besides, he already knew he was wrong."

KO's mouth was pursed into a branch line: "I am more pitiful for being implicated."

Hao Mei was stunned for a moment before realizing it, and burst out laughing: "No, what are you arguing with a child for?"

KO stopped talking, and walked silently with his hands in his trouser pockets. The street lights at night elongated his shadow. How cool was his appearance.Hao Mei saw it, but felt that his appearance was childish and cute.

"Okay, our KO chef is the most innocent," Hao Mei leaned closer to KO: "When you get home, don't do anything, just lie down and rest, I'll take care of you, cook, change medicine and take a bath. How is the service, are you satisfied?"

A gentleman is quick to whip his whip, and Hao Mei's words have been released, so naturally they must be strictly enforced.As soon as I got home, I began to carefully study the precautions given by the doctor - the diet should be light, avoid spicy food, keep the wound clean, keep away from water, avoid sun exposure, combine work and rest, and prohibit high-intensity activities.In addition, anti-inflammatory drugs have a stimulating effect on the stomach, and need to be taken 30 minutes after meals. Do not drink milk, otherwise it will affect the efficacy of the drug.

It seems that if you want to take medicine, you have to eat first.

Hao Mei, who didn't eat dinner, was also very hungry, thinking about what to eat in the refrigerator: "I can make foolish dishes like scrambled eggs with tomatoes..."

KO didn't expect Hao Mei to really cook, so he walked into the kitchen worriedly: "Let me do it."

"Hey, what are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to lie down?" Hao Mei took out eggs and tomatoes from the refrigerator: "I'll call you when it's done."

"I just hurt my hand." KO shook his head, implying that he didn't need to lie down at all, "What are you going to do?"

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, porridge with preserved eggs and lean meat, steamed a few quick-frozen buns." Hao Mei washed the tomatoes and put them on the cutting board: "I don't know how to do anything complicated, so don't let it go."

KO leaned to the side, folded his arms and admired Hao Mei's appearance in an apron: "I don't dislike it, I'm looking forward to it."

Hao Mei hasn't been in the kitchen by herself for a long time, and she is a little rusty in cooking, but fortunately, the dishes are relatively simple, dice preserved eggs, shred lean meat, add ingredients to the porridge halfway through cooking and cook it.The only thing to pay attention to is the heat of the porridge. In order to prevent the pot from overflowing, it is necessary to adjust between high heat and low heat in time.

Just twisting the gas valve, KO can still do it, adjust the heat of the porridge with his left hand from time to time, or lift the lid of the pot and stir it twice.

With KO's help, Hao Mei can concentrate on the ingredients on the cutting board.The eggs were beaten into a uniform egg liquid, and the tomatoes were cut into pieces. The technique was not very skilled, and the knife was cut slowly and carefully.

With his injured right hand in his pocket, KO was leaning against the stove, unconsciously attracted by the way Hao Mei was cooking——his slightly furrowed eyebrows, fluttering eyelashes from time to time, focused eyes, outlined by the warm yellow light The arc of the protruding nose, the lips pursed unconsciously, the shirt with two buttons unbuttoned, the cuffs rolled up, the protruding ulna on the wrist...

— puff.

The porridge in the pot spewed out hot air, tumbling enthusiastically with white foam, overflowing from the edge of the pot lid.

KO woke up like a dream, quickly turned around and turned down the fire.

Hao Mei was also taken aback by the sound. Seeing KO pinching the lid of the pot in a panic, she couldn't help worrying: "You are also distracted. Does the wound hurt? Do you want to rest?"

"It's okay." KO stared at the gurgling porridge, clearly feeling his own heartbeat speeding up.

It's terrible. Not long ago, I taught others to concentrate when cooking, and I didn't get much better.

KO closed the lid of the pot in frustration, remembering a very philosophical quote.

Modesty makes people progress, pride makes people lag behind, and love makes people retarded.

29.

After the meal, Hao Mei actively cleared the table, washed the dishes, urged KO to take the medicine, and boiled the bath water.

Although it was said that "cooking, dressing, bathing, one-stop service", when KO really took off his shirt and pants in front of him, revealing his muscular body, Hao Mei suddenly yelled and held down the other side's hand that wanted to take off his underwear further. Hand, blushing so steamy: "You, you, you, you, wait... I'll find a plastic bag to help you put your right glove up, just keep it from getting wet."

KO, who was wearing a plastic bag in his last hand, went into the bath by himself, leaving Hao Mei outside the bathroom trying to cool down his face.

——It’s all old men, it’s not a big deal if you take a look, why am I being shy? ? ?

Obviously when I was in college, the boys' bathhouse was full of nudes everywhere, and I never felt embarrassed.Later, when I lived in the staff dormitory, a few boys didn’t pay attention at all when they were together, and it was normal to see each other frankly. Why did something wrong come to KO? ?

Hao Mei racked her brains, and came to the conclusion that it was all because of KO's good figure and handsome face, which made everyone blush when looking at it, and his lethality couldn't be compared with ordinary people.

KO's right hand is inconvenient, and taking a shower took a lot longer than usual.He wiped his hair with a towel in one hand and walked out of the bathroom.I saw Hao Mei tossing the apples from her hometown in the kitchen.

Washed, peeled, cored and cut into pieces, cut the best part of an apple into a plate, and smashed the leftover core in his mouth, the appearance was the same as that KO usually gave in food stalls. The way he makes the fruit plate is exactly the same.

The softest part of the heart was hit unsuspectingly, KO walked over silently, resting his chin gently on Hao Mei's shoulder from behind, startling the person who was sticking a toothpick into an apple.

KO, who just took a bath, still has warm moisture on his body, and the lemon smell of the bath liquid is all over his body. The distance between the two is too close, and Hao Mei's cheeks that have finally cooled down began to heat up again: "Ah, you have finished washing. Already? Let’s eat some fruit.”

KO didn't speak, just opened his mouth, the meaning was self-explanatory.

"Did you wash your left hand too bad in this bath? Do you want me to feed it?" Hao Mei said so, obediently inserting an apple into KO's mouth: "How is it, isn't it very sweet?"

"Hmm." KO could only feel the sweet taste flowing down the esophagus to the internal organs, spreading to the limbs, like countless pink cotton candy swelled in the body, and the feeling of happiness almost overflowed.

He inexplicably remembered the biblical story he had read when he was a child, where the serpent used apples to lure Adam and Eve to fall, and he suddenly understood that feeling—if apples tasted so good, then even the forbidden fruit would make people desperate to eat to taste.

30.

After taking a nap, KO woke up on time the next day to get ready for work, Hao Mei was so angry that she jumped up and down.

"Go to class!" Hao Mei stopped at the door and refused to let her go, "Will you die if you rest for a day or what?"

KO looked at Hao Mei's face as if facing a formidable enemy, and smiled helplessly: "I just got a little burnt."

Hao Mei didn't listen at all: "I care about you. You can't understand the precautions written by the doctor? Come on, read to me: combine work and rest, and prohibit high-intensity activities."

KO patiently explained: "The apprentice yesterday will definitely not be able to come today. If I don't go, I won't be able to open today."

"It's none of my business whether it's open or not!" Hao brows furiously: "That's your food stall? Why are you so active in making money for others?? Do you want it? If not, I'll chop it up for you Save you from going out and making trouble!"

KO finally knows what a dog will jump over a wall when it is anxious, and a rabbit will bite someone when it is anxious.This usually soft person is really fierce when he gets stubborn with you, there is absolutely nothing you can do about him.In the end, an agreement was reached——KO can go to work, but he can’t work. He can only stand in the back kitchen and direct others to do it, and he must always pay attention to the dryness and cleanliness of the wound.

After leaving the house, Hao Mei was still worried, and specially took her to the food stall with her own car, making KO almost think that she was not hurt by her hand, but directly disabled by her lower body.

"Listen to me, all of you." Hao Mei was very domineering today, pointing at a few part-time students to give orders, "Keep an eye on KO, if anyone finds that he dares to use his injured hand to work, report it After that, there will be red envelopes, whoever protects him will be finished!" After saying that, he rode away in a dashing manner, leaving KO to stay where he was, being scanned up and down by several pairs of eyes like hungry wolves.

After more than ten years of lonely life where no one cared about her, she never thought that once she flew up a branch and became the princess of the pea, she would be treated as a porcelain doll that would shatter when she touched her hand with a slight injury.Throughout the morning, KO was watched closely by several pairs of eyes. Not to mention working, even when he took his right hand out of his pocket to breathe, someone pointed his mobile phone at him to record evidence.

Hao Mei came to inspect the situation at noon, and seeing a group of young people were listless, instead of rushing up to him to actively report KO's violations, he knew that he had saved the red envelope money, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitched proudly.

When KO saw Hao Mei coming, he habitually wanted to make fried chicken and rice bowls, but before he reached the refrigerator, he was stopped: "What do you want to do? Do you want to commit crimes under the nose of Brother Mei?"

KO paused: "Your lunch today..."

"I've eaten here." Hao Mei threw the backpack on the chair, and pulled KO to sit down: "In your eyes, I must be here to eat? I came here specially to change your medicine, okay?" After that, he checked KO's right hand up, down, left, and right, and after confirming that it hadn't been wet, and there was no sign of loosening, he smiled and praised: "Yes, yes, very obedient."

In the face of high-pressure policies, it is impossible to be disobedient. KO shook his head helplessly, and let Hao Mei gently remove the bandage for him, cleaned his hands that had not been washed for a day with a paper towel dipped in warm water, and applied the medicine again.

"What did you have for lunch?" KO asked casually, "Are you full?"

"The rice with sweet and sour pork ribs in the next street tastes pretty good." Hao Mei seriously re-wrapped KO, without thinking about it: "I used to go there before I rented with you, and the boss is also my acquaintance, so I haven't been there for a long time , and specially added two spoonfuls of vegetables to me, it was too much."

The injured hand was bandaged again, Hao Mei raised it up to admire her masterpiece from multiple angles, and nodded with satisfaction.Only then did KO look at him with complicated eyes, "...what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that."

KO still had the same expression, making people unable to see why, before saying after a while: "I am also very good at sweet and sour pork ribs."

"I know." Hao Mei didn't understand, so she said, "There is no dish that you are not good at."

KO stopped talking, his lips were pursed into a straight line, and his jaw was clenched tightly.

Hao Mei stared blankly at him for a long time, then suddenly realized: "Brother, you are too competitive...I didn't say that others are better than you, or far worse than you. , it’s not that you can’t do it for the time being, so I’ll settle for the next best thing.”

KO's expression finally loosened a bit, and he nodded: "I will recover soon, I promise."

"It's best like this." Hao Mei laughed, and put the ointment and bandages into her backpack: "I have to go to work, remember to take the anti-inflammatory medicine, and come back to change your medicine in the evening... Ah, maybe tonight It's going to be later."

KO helped him hang the backpack on his shoulder with his left hand: "Are you busy?"

"It's okay, but I have to pay the ticket." Hao Mei stepped into the car: "I ran 8 red lights last night."

KO frowned: "...obey the traffic rules."

"You think I don't want to," Hao Mei pouted, "I don't know who caused me to rush to the hospital."

KO pressed the front of Hao Mei's car, with an unprecedentedly serious expression: "I'm serious, you must pay attention to safety on the road."

Hao Mei was taken aback by the other party's sudden seriousness, and nodded dully: "Okay...okay..."

That day, Hao Mei rode her bicycle to the corner at the end of the street. When she turned her head, she could still vaguely see the figure standing in front of the food stall.

31.

KO originally thought that Hao Mei's talk about taking care of him was just a 3-minute hot thing, but unexpectedly she really persisted.

Hao Mei sent people to the food stall every morning, and told him not to do any work, and to come to change the medicine regularly at noon and night, and he was determined not to let KO touch the housework—although Hao Mei herself did a poor job, dragging the floor in a mess , the clothes have been washed as if they have not been washed, but he is very confident: it doesn’t matter if the house is a little messy, and there are no guests anyway!It doesn't matter if you wash a few less clothes, just enough to wear!

KO couldn't refute, and could only silently calculate his workload after recovery.

It went on like this for a week, the KO's hand was almost good, and the owner of the food stall was about to go crazy.

After all, KO and those students are all employees hired by him with money. The chef does not work, and the waiter helps to supervise and prevent the chef from working. What does this mean? ?Who is the boss? ?Are the food stalls still open? ! !

Facing the boss's yelling, KO lighted a cigarette calmly, waited patiently for the other side to finish yelling, flicked the ash and said, "Deduct from your salary."

The implication is that you can deduct the money, anyway, I will not take the risk of making Hao Mei angry.

The boss was so angry that he almost couldn't catch his breath, and his hands trembling angrily: "You, don't you think that I dare not fire you!"

KO made a gesture of "Please go ahead" and ran away in a fit of anger to the boss. Several waiters were dumbfounded when they saw it—they are tough if they have skills, and they dared to confront the boss head-on.

As a legend, this matter was circulated among the employees of the food stall for a while, and it naturally reached Hao Mei's ears.

On the way to apply medicine to KO, Hao Mei said angrily while bandaging: "Your boss, Zhou Papi? You are injured and don't let you go. It's fine, and you keep working. You are making fried rice for me." If something goes wrong with the chicken bowl, can he afford it! He even dared to say that he would fire you! If I were your boss, I would definitely let you take ten days off with pay!"

"Fired is fired," KO didn't care. Over the past ten years, all the clubs he switched to could form a football team. A good place fires the boss, and it’s nothing new to turn it over and over again. “It’s a big deal to switch to another company.”

This was said openly and aboveboard, without any shyness, which made several waiters sweat in their hearts - fortunately the boss is not here today, otherwise he would have a myocardial infarction sooner or later.

"If you change to another house, you still have to cook." Hao Mei rolled up the gauze in circles: "Do you like being a chef?"

"There's nothing I like or don't like, I just have a meal." KO didn't know why Hao Mei asked this question suddenly, but he answered honestly: "I have been working in a restaurant since I was 14 years old. If it wasn't for this craft, I would have Starved to death. After so many years of doing it...it's probably already a part of me, and will continue to do it if nothing else."

Hao Mei was a little absent-minded: "Compared with other jobs, you will choose the chef first, so you can say that you like it?"

KO nodded: "Yes."

Hao Mei thought about it lamely, and seemed to want to say something, but suddenly found that she had unknowingly wrapped KO's hand into a mummy, she reacted in shock, and quickly unwrapped it: "I rely on you Don't remind me! It's already wrapped into rice dumplings!"

KO supported his head to see Hao Mei's flustered look, with a smile on his lips: "It's quite cute."

Hao Mei: "........."

32.

KO's hands completely removed the gauze in the second week.

The wound grew healthy new skin, except that it was lighter than the surrounding area, there was no problem, not even a scar, Hao Mei was alive and kicking with joy.

The owner of the food stall finally didn't have to wander around the store fiercely every day. Everyone was relieved. The waiters were relieved of the pressure and soon became happy again.

"Hey, Brother Mei, tell me the truth." The student sneaked up next to Hao Mei and whispered, "Did KO's girlfriend cheat on you?"

Hao Mei spit out half a cup of tea, "Cough, cough cough...what the hell?!"

"I said, did KO's girlfriend cheat??" The student looked worried: "From the time she was injured to when she recovered, she never visited her once! Didn't she collapse before she couldn't get in touch with anyone?? What? Don't worry about it this time!"

"Maybe someone cared about it in private?" Hao Mei was speechless: "And how do you know it wasn't KO cheating on you?"

"It's impossible!" the student vowed, "I see it through. Don't look at KO's always cool appearance. When it comes to love, he must be very pure and infatuated. You have such a strong relationship with him." , the last time you said bad things about his girlfriend, he was still angry, and he is the only one who protects his shortcomings to this extent."

Tsk, that makes sense.Hao brow twitched, the people in this food stall can't do other things, they gossip well, and they have the potential to switch careers and become paparazzi.

"Okay, okay, you can't think of others better." Hao Mei waved her hand: "I assure you, her girlfriend definitely didn't cheat."

——Because I don’t even have a girlfriend at all.

After sending off the students, the schoolgirls are here again.He stared fixedly at Hao Mei with a kind of blurred eyes, staring at her with horror.

"Heroine, tell me what you have to say, don't do it like this," Hao Mei rubbed her arms, "It's scary."

"Brother Mei, tell me the truth." The paparazzi seemed to have been trained, even the opening line was exactly the same: "KO's girlfriend..."

Hao Mei took the lead: "No cheating, no cheating!"

I'm dying, why do everyone like to care about KO's emotional life so much, is there no one else to gossip about? ?You are middle-aged with a beer belly and a bald food stall owner who spends all day working in the aunts of the neighborhood committees, and you are not so interested.

"I didn't ask this," the student girl said with blazing eyes, "KO's girlfriend is actually you!"

"Pfft!!" Hao Mei sprayed out the remaining half cup of tea, "I...cough coughcough...I'm so stupid..."

The student girl quickly came over to give her a little comfort: "Brother Mei, don't be nervous, I will definitely not say anything."

"No, wait a minute," Hao Mei wiped her mouth, "Which of your eyes can see that I look like a woman!"

"Oh, I made a mistake," the student girl corrected, "It's a boyfriend."

"It's not!!!" Hao Mei almost knelt down for this group of people: "You have to be logical when you open your mind!"

"My logic is very rigorous." The student girl shrugged: "Look, KO has been injured for so long, and his girlfriend has never shown up. Instead, you have been taking care of him. You are usually careless, but you are meticulous when taking care of KO. Incredibly."

"He's my good brother," Hao Mei argued, "Besides, his girlfriend might be taking care of him at home. If you didn't see it, it doesn't mean you don't have one, right?"

"It makes sense, so here comes the important point." The student girl squinted her eyes: "You said last time that KO's girlfriend can't do housework, and if there is no KO, the house will be a mess, so they live together, right? "

"...Yes, yes..." Hao Mei shrunk his neck guiltily: "It's quite normal for a young couple to live together."

The student girl smiled ambiguously: "Brother Mei, you didn't notice it, you two wore the wrong socks today."

——? ? ? ! ! ! !

Hao Mei almost jumped up, and subconsciously looked at her feet—the left foot was gray, and the right foot was white.

The evidence is conclusive, the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, and it is impossible to argue with a hundred mouths, even if you jump into the Yellow River, you can't clear it up.

"No...not...that..." Hao Mei collapsed: "Listen to my explanation..."

"No, no, no, you don't need to explain," the student girl's eyes lit up, "I'm just saying I'm not mistaken, KO definitely likes cute types! And the way he looks at you, oh, that's gentle, that doting, I can't wait to put you in my pocket, sometimes when you eat here, he comes from the kitchen
