Chapter 19: An Unexpected Tacit Understanding
As the night grew darker, the lights hanging from the plane trees came on. Several people have already discussed various plans in full swing, and they are ready to help Xiong Wei answer the phone and create opportunities.
The honey-roasted little fragrant pig in the back kitchen has been roasted, just waiting for Song Tao to come and serve it.
Ignoring the laughter of the children, Xiong Wei took out a tissue and carefully wiped the empty stool deliberately left around him three times.
Half an hour later, a car drove into Hualou Street and stopped outside Uncle Fang's barbecue door.
Seeing Song Tao sitting in the car pushing the car door down, Xiong Wei stood up suddenly.
"It's all here!" Song Tao smiled like a flower and said hello.
At this time, Cui He got off the bus from the other side and stood beside her.
The energy-saving lamp was encircled by a plastic lampshade, and the light that fell on the two people was very faint. Fu Pengpeng saw Cui He's handsome side face, and suddenly remembered the photo taken by Lin Tao, and couldn't help but feel suffocated.
Fang Cai's laughter seemed to freeze in the air. Liu Bing whispered: ", it's in vain." ”
Fu Pengpeng kicked him in the leg, got up and beckoned: "Just wait for you...... It's two!"
Xiong Wei's face was as black as charcoal piled up under the barbecue grill, and he didn't say hello, but lowered his head and sat back again. Fu Pengpeng's eyes were quick, he pulled him up, and put his dishes and chopsticks beside him: "Uncle Fang, add a pair of dishes and chopsticks!"
After the two sat down, Song Tao introduced Liu Bing to Cui He. After greeting politely, Cui He looked at Fu Pengpeng and Xiong Wei, his eyes turned between them, and he seemed to think it was quite interesting: "Miss Fu, Boss Xiaoxiong, we meet again." ”
Song Tao wore a light-colored slim cheongsam skirt. Cui He is still wearing a short-sleeved shirt and suit trousers. They were dressed as if they were from another world.
"This place...... I've wronged you. Xiong Wei looked at Song Tao and Cui He opposite him in a daze, and his tone was sour. Cui He happened to sit on the stool he had specially wiped for Song Tao, like a stone pressed on his heart, Xiong Wei was extremely uncomfortable.
"What nonsense. I didn't grow up in Hualou Street, and I still hate it? Today I'm thinking about having a barbecue. Song Tao glanced at Xiong Wei.
That glance was like a beam of light, dispelling the haze in Xiong Wei's heart. He looked at Song Tao a little obsessively, and the words that wanted to confess to her rolled on the tip of his tongue. However, the skin of the mouth is as if it is glued, and it cannot be opened. He was sweating profusely.
In an instant, Song Tao's gaze moved to Cui He. Xiong Wei's courage to finally mention was shattered. He drooped his head and thought sourly, she has someone she likes, what's the point of confessing?
Cui He was looking at Uncle Fang's house with great interest. Song Tao's eyes were slightly dark, couldn't eating barbecue make him remember what day it was?
"Xiaowei, Uncle Fang can't be busy, let's take a hand!" Fu Pengpeng said with a smile and pulled Xiong Wei into the back hall.
Bypassing the wall, Fu Pengpeng pushed Xiong Wei into the corner, lowered his voice and said, "Either you boldly confess to Song Tao today and compete with Cui He openly." Either you put away this late girl's face, don't be ashamed!"
Xiong Wei kicked the corner of the wall hard: "I'm really convinced! I mustered up the courage to confess twice and met Cui Hezai." ”
"I've figured it out here!!"
"Cold salad!" Xiong Wei muttered, gritted his teeth and said, "Dude, you have to get Cui He drunk today!"
Hatred gave him courage, and he rushed to take the suckling pig from Aunt Fang's hand and took it out.
Fu Pengpeng couldn't help laughing.
----------------------
Growing up together, Xiong Wei understood with one look, and Liu Bing understood. Calling Brother Cui to toast enthusiastically.
Song Tao simply gave up the place and moved to Liu Bing's seat to sit, chatting with Fu Pengpeng and Xiong Wei.
The flattered Xiong Wei quietly pulled the corner of Fu Pengpeng's clothes.
This is to tell her to give up her seat so that the two of them can talk without hindrance. Fu Pengpeng was helpless, and took the opportunity of toasting to go around to the opposite side.
Inadvertently, she and Song Tao switched seats and sat next to Cui He.
"Your girlfriend threw you into the wolf's den, and you're less lucky today. Taking advantage of the gap, Fu Pengpeng teased.
When the two were talking, Song Tao and Xiong Wei chatted hotly, and they didn't even glance this way.
Cui He just smiled: "It's rare to play with Fa Xiao, it's good if she's happy." ”
After just two sentences, Liu Bing and the others went to Cui He to drink again.
"Hey, bullying my boyfriend?" Song Tao said suddenly, "How boring is it to always find him to drink alone? Let's play guessing boxing together." Start with me. The loser continues. ”
She stretched out her hands and looked at Liu Bing with a smile.
"I'll help you drink if you lose. Cui He said.
"Don't!" Song Tao refused, "Celebrate for your friends today." I'm happy!"
She found a job, Song Tao was happy, Fu Pengpeng didn't believe it at all.
Cui He was a little helpless, but he didn't say anything more.
Song Tao was unlucky. Lost three times in a row in front. The wine was dry, and his cheeks were already red. When it was Fu Pengpeng's turn, she giggled: "Pengpeng, I won't lose four games in a row, right?"
"Possibly. "I always feel that Song Tao is wrong today, as if she is looking for wine to drink. Fu Pengpeng was noncommittal.
Xiong Wei betrayed Fu Pengpeng without pressure at all: "Pengpeng's left and right hands are not coordinated, and everything is the same." Guess boxing nine times out of ten. Song Tao, you will definitely win!"
Fu Pengpeng rolled his eyes: "Song Tao was also misled by you if he lost!"
"Fifteen!"
"Ten!"
"Twenty!"
"Ten! I won!"
Song Tao cheered happily and excitedly turned around and stretched out her palm. Xiong Wei subconsciously did so. The palms of the two of them struck a crisp sound in tacit harmony.
So it was Fu Pengpeng's turn to be the banker.
"Pengpeng, come on!" At this time, Xiong Wei fell to Fu Pengpeng again. He hoped that she would win, so that Cui He would keep losing until he got drunk.
A year ago I played guessing in the UK. It's not about wine, it's about truth or dare. Cui He stretched out his two palms and lost to Song Tao. He chose to take a big risk, so he kissed her.
A trace of resentment floated from Song Tao's mind. She thought indignantly, you have forgotten that today is the first anniversary of their acquaintance! She blurted out: "Pengpeng, he likes to come out of ten!"
Song Tao didn't help Cui He, Xiong Wei's mood could be described as ecstasy, and his smug tail wagged: "Pengpeng, it's not too easy to win him." ”
"I like to come out of ten, you don't seem to be out of ten or zero. Who killed the deer?" Cui He just laughed.
The two shouted one, two, three. Begin!
"Five!"
"Five!"
"Ten!"
"Ten!"
Everyone didn't expect that Cui He and Fu Pengpeng only had one hand twice in a row.
Did he even forget the scene at that time? Song Tao bit her lip lightly.
Fu Pengpeng smiled: "I won't make the same two hands, and you won't only send ten!
Again, the two shot at the same time.
"Twenty!"
"Twenty!"
……
After seven or eight rounds of shouting, the two of them guessed the same.
Glancing at each other, Fu Pengpeng and Cui He laughed at the same time.
Xiong Wei screamed: "You two really have a tacit understanding!"
Cui He and Fu Pengpeng on the opposite side were smiling so happily that they had been forgotten by him. Song Tao forgot that she took the initiative to leave Cui He's side, and only felt aggrieved and sad. Fu Pengpeng's smile was so dazzling, which made her feel a kind of grievance of being left out. With the intention of drinking, she picked up the wine glass: "Forget it, it's really boring for you two to guess like this." Cheers to Celebrate Friends Getting Jobs!"
Cui He and Fu Pengpeng looked at each other and smiled, and the topic changed.
