Chapter 6: The First Sight of Embarrassment
Ye Ye's mind spun around a few times, and he opened his mouth to tell a lie: "I am her brother's friend, and her brother knows that she is in difficulty, so he asked me to come over to see him and send her tuition and living expenses, so that she can continue to go to school." ”
"That's great. I'm not in Class 4, but I have friends in her class who know her well. I'm going to find you somebody, and you're waiting in that noodle shop. The boy was obviously much more energetic, and pointed to the "hometown noodle restaurant" opposite the middle school, and trotted excitedly.
Ye Ye entered the "Fellow Noodle Restaurant" and asked for a big bowl of beef noodles, and swallowed a bowl of it, and the hot noodle soup was delicious, which felt really refreshing. After escaping for almost a week, it was often a few biscuits and a sip of water to make a meal, and today was the first hot meal to eat, which was really comfortable.
After one bowl was finished, I asked for a second bowl and a third bowl, and the owner of the noodle restaurant was so shocked that he stared at him, which hungry ghost was released from the hunger prison, and quickly persuaded the young man to eat slowly and slowly, don't choke.
Ye Ye had just finished eating the third bowl of noodles and was licking the soup with the bowl when he suddenly felt a thin figure shaking in front of him.
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl walked up, her appearance was very delicate and attractive, there was a vague outline of Lu Yang between her eyebrows, her eyes were big and focused, her eyelashes were lowered, and she seemed to be a little nervous when she suddenly saw a stranger.
After looking at each other in silence, Ye Ye took out the words he had thought of in advance: "You are Lu Qingzi, right? I am your brother's friend, and he asked me to come and see you." After hesitating for a moment, he decided to make it clear in advance, lest he would not leave after visiting the person and make her suspicious, "He asked me to ...... Let me take care of you for a while. ”
Lu Qingzi glanced at the three big empty bowls on the table in front of Ye Ye that had even licked the soup clean, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Where is my brother?"
"It's a mission, a long-term secret mission, it may take several years. He can't contact his family until the mission is over, so I'll take care of you. ”
Hearing her ask about Lu Yang, Ye Ye's heart ached, and his tears almost couldn't help dripping into the bowl, this was a pre-conceived statement, and it was also the most uncomfortable lie he had ever told in his life.
In order to disguise himself, he lowered his head and gulped down the soup, drank it loudly, and after drinking, he deliberately burped a very exaggerated fullness, and leaned lazily on the back of his chair, pretending to be very relaxed.
Lu Qingzi didn't doubt this much, she vaguely knew what her brother was doing, and nodded: "Where do you live?"
"I live ......" Ye Ye subconsciously wanted to answer the hotel or guesthouse, but suddenly remembered that he had dozens of yuan of change left in his pocket, which he still touched in the pocket of the old clothes that came from the cargo ship, and changed his words: "I just arrived, and I don't have a place to live yet." After speaking, he stared at Lu Qingzi with his eyes, hoping that this girl could understand something.
Lu Qingzi obviously had no intention of taking a man he met for the first time home to stay overnight, lowered his eyelashes to avoid Ye Ye's gaze, and whispered: "Brother, I know a small hotel, it's quite clean and cheap...... I'll take you there. ”
Ye Ye hung his head in frustration, so he had to hum and stand up. I thought about those few gross tickets in my pocket, and the small hotel couldn't afford to stay for one night, so it didn't matter, just find a bridge under the bridge or a square or something like that tonight, as for what to do tomorrow, I will find a way tomorrow.
shouted to settle the bill, and the owner of the noodle shop quoted the price, three bowls of beef noodles, a total of 48 yuan.
Ye Ye took out the only handful of ten or five yuan change in his pocket, and looked at it, it was less than forty yuan, which was too big, and secretly scolded himself for why he had to eat beef greedily?
The money is not enough, Ye Ye pinched his hand and it was not easy to give it out, he looked at Lu Qingzi hesitantly, he wanted her to take the money out but he was really embarrassed to export, people just called his brother, how can he be a sister when he first met?
Fortunately, this time, Lu Qingzi was finally "sensible", and silently took out the money to settle the account.
As soon as he walked out of the noodle restaurant, Lu Qingzi stood still, turned his head to stare at Ye Ye, his eyes were clear and compelling: "You told my classmates that it was a lie to be entrusted by my brother to send me money, right? You are really my brother's comrade-in-arms?"
Ye Ye was stunned when he asked, he found that he was facing an unexpected and laughable trouble, and he had nothing to prove his identity.
Lu Yang's relics are only the photo of the brother and sister taking a group photo, but the hatred also fell into the hands of the bastard surnamed Zhou, and he couldn't get it back in a short time.
He couldn't even take out a photo of himself and Lu Yang to prove his relationship with her brother, or he could take out 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan to hand it over to her, saying that it was brought by her brother, and it would make her believe in herself a little more.
Ye Ye took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I am really your brother's comrade-in-arms, and he asked me to come to see you." Something happened on the way, and I lost the money I was carrying. But don't worry, I'll get it to you a little later. ”
"Really?" Obviously not convinced, Lu Qingzi took half a step back, and crossed his hands on his chest.
Ye Ye had been trained in body language reading in the intelligence class, and he could see that this was a defensive posture, and said with a wry smile: "My surname is Ye, and I am your brother's best friend." You may not have heard my name from him, but you must have heard him say that there is such a man, he has a comrade-in-arms with whom he has lived his life, right?"
Lu Qingzi nodded slightly, the vigilance in his eyes subsided a little, and then he remembered that the strange man in front of him was dressed like a troubled ruffian, as if he was coming out of a hungry prison and even ate three bowls of noodles, which had nothing to do with the image of a mighty and masculine soldier. She subconsciously shook her head, if she believed that soldiers were like this, it would be too insulting to her brother.
Seeing that the other party still didn't believe it, Ye Ye had no choice but to make a move: "Your brother is a dog, his birthday on the lunar calendar is February 18, and his birthday on the solar calendar is March 15." ”
"A lot of people know that. ”
Continue to magnify the move: "Your brother has a mole on the back of his neck, he hates to eat snacks, and his nickname is Erdan......"
"It doesn't mean much. ”
Ye Ye was a little annoyed, he said so much Lu Yang's personal information to win her trust, but he still refused to believe himself, so he had no choice but to make a trick.
