Chapter 33 Stir-fried meat with cucumbers

In the early morning of late summer, at about five or six o'clock, the sky reveals a faint white belly, and the yellowish morning light is weak cicada wings.

Xu Qing knocked on He Shenge's door at this time.

"What are you doing so early?" He Shenge opened the door, looking sleepy.

"Weekend dinner!"

"Then you don't have to get up so early, haven't they come yet?"

"Last time, we prepared the ingredients a night in advance, and last night we wanted to go grocery shopping, and you don't know where to go. ”

"Hmm. He Shenge lay back in the bed.

Xu Qing pulled her up: "Let's go buy vegetables, this time we will cook, and next time it will be their turn." ”

"I'm going to go to the Guangzhou Library this afternoon to check the materials, let me sleep. He Shenge hung his head weakly.

"You're just tossing around, how can you write this kind of copywriting alone? In the past, this kind of big copywriting was all three or four people together, and you were stupid. ”

"Miss Xu Qing, you also know, the work of three or four people, now I am alone! He Shenge felt weak, how could he have the strength to get up?

"You cook a delicious meal and bribe Gu Da and let Gu Da help you! He is the number one copywriter in our department!"

"I'll eat, and I'll make it so-so, not as good as you. ”

"Then you get up and go grocery shopping with me. Xu Qing dragged her off the bed with all his might.

He Shenge couldn't resist Xu Qing's high enthusiasm, so he got up and washed up without love.

It took a morning to buy vegetables, and after that, He Shenge was the assistant, and Chef Xu Qing used all the afternoon she planned to cook.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the doorbell rang.

Xu Qing was frying cucumbers, so he asked He Shenge, who was on the onion, to open the door.

With tears streaming down her face, she hurriedly put down her knife and ran to open the door.

Outside the door, Du Ku carried a bag of fruit and a box of Trensu, and smiled toothily at He Shenge.

He Shenge probed and looked at the porch, but found no other men.

"Deep song. Du Ku smiled a little reluctantly: "Gu Da said that he went to help Mr. Yuan move." ”

"Oh. ”

He Shenge took the fruit in his hand with his hand, and greeted lightly on his delicate makeup face: "Kutou, you sit down, you will be able to eat soon." ”

"I'll go help, I think you need to wipe your tears. Dooku put down the box of Trensu and hurried into the kitchen.

He Shenge opened her mouth to explain that her tears were because she had just cut the onion.

She put the bag of fruit on the table, and melancholy crept up to the bottom of her eyes, originally she wanted to thank Gu Lance in person, but it seemed that there was no need.

In the kitchen, as soon as Du Ku entered, Xu Qing thought that He Shenge had come in, and he didn't raise his eyelids, so he ordered: "Shenge, have you cut the onion? ”

Dooku silently picked up the knife and chopped the remaining half of the onion, tears falling like beads of unthreaded thread.

After a while, Xu Qing put the fried cucumber on the white porcelain plate, and then put the yellow flowers on the cucumber rattan prepared in advance to the side, took the dish with a smile, turned around and said: "Dangdang, cucumber fried meat, make ......."

Halfway through, her smile froze.

"Gu Da didn't come, I didn't seem to be very happy to see Shen Ge, so I came in to help. Du Ku glanced at Xu Qing quickly, and kept lowering his head to cut the middle wings of the chicken, not daring to raise his head.

Xu Qing put down the plate of cucumber fried meat, put the pan into the pool without saying a word, turned on the faucet, and the water jet sprayed out of the round opening.

It opened too violently at once, and the water droplets splashed everywhere.

Dooku quickly twisted the faucet, the water flowed less, and he smelled a faint scent of lavender, and all of a sudden, his heart beat faster, and his face flushed.

Xu Qingzheng was trapped in his chest by Dooku's hands, her waist just against the edge of the cupboard, and she was in a dilemma.

At this moment, He Shenge's drizzling voice came from the living room: "Qingqing, Kutou, I'm going to the library, you two eat." ”

"Deep song. Xu Qing wanted to stop He Shenge, but he was in a hurry and directly hit Du Ku's chest.

As it happened, her head hit Dooku's chin, and Dooku leaned over in pain and covered his chin.

"Are you alright?" Xu Qing turned around, his face worried.

"It doesn't hurt. Dooku immediately let go of his hand and straightened up to show that he was fine.

Xu Qing's slender fingers gently pressed Du Ku's somewhat scumbag chin, and his eyes were like spring water: "Does it really not hurt?"

Inexplicably, Duku's Adam's apple moved up and down, and his wide and thick hand grabbed Xu Qing's small hand, and his voice became a little low: "It seems, it hurts a little." ”

"Kutou!" He Shenge went and returned.

When Du Ku and Xu Qing heard this voice, they immediately bounced away.

He Shenge saw the two of them standing on the left and right sides of the kitchen, and was slightly puzzled: "You two ......"

"Why are you back again?, do you want to eat the dishes I cooked?" Xu Qing hurriedly asked.

"You can leave me some leftovers. He Shenge looked at Du Ku: "Kutou, will you go to the uncle tomorrow?"

"Well, I'll ask him to go to the tennis court tomorrow. ”

"Then you can help me bring the camera to him, and say I don't need it. ”

"Huh?"

"The camera is in the living room, remember to take it when you go, I'm out the door. ”

The next moment, the sound of the door closing in the living room was heard.

Xu Qing was stunned and asked, "Did the two of them quarrel?"

"Possibly. ”

Sunday, tennis hall.

Gu Lance sat on the ground sweating profusely, gulping down mineral water.

"Gu Da, Shen Ge put on makeup yesterday. Dooku put down his tennis racket and sat down to talk about yesterday.

He drank the water for a moment, didn't speak, and tightened the cap.

Duku grunted a bottle of water into his mouth, took a breath, and continued: "Yesterday she opened the door and saw that I was the only one, so she kept looking for you, and then I told her, you went to move for Mr. Yuan, not to mention how disappointed you are." ”

He wiped his face with a dry towel and didn't respond.

Seeing this, Du Ku added oil and vinegar: "I heard Qingqing say that she got up early in the morning to go to the market to buy vegetables and prepare for the dinner party in the evening, but you didn't come, she didn't even eat, so she ran to the library, and she was very tired for copywriting alone during this time." ”

"The work she took on her own initiative, no matter how tired she is, she has to hold on. Gu Lance relaxed, leaned against the wall, and fixed his eyes on a couple playing ball in the next room.

"Gu Da, aren't you going to help?"

Gu Lance smiled coldly: "If someone helps her, she won't need me." ”

"Anyone?" Du Ku asked a little bit of a clue, and asked with a touch of vines: "Gu Da, you mean, there is someone outside Shen Ge?"

"It's not. ”

"In that case, you must be the one who is wrong. Du Ku put his hand on Gu Qi's shoulder: "Gu Da, you are a man, and sometimes you also take care of other people's feelings, don't keep walking with Mr. Yuan, Shen Ge saw it, and it was not very good." ”

"Nothing bad. ”

"Guda, you must know that women are very sensitive animals. ”

Gu Lance glanced at Duku: "Still can't play?"

"I also treat you as a brother, and I hope you two will be well. Duku lowered his head and took out a small box from his tennis bag: "I think Shen Ge should be angry, she asked me to give you the camera, she said, she doesn't need it." ”

Gu Qi looked at the box, and then looked away indifferently, and there was no joy or anger in his tone: "She doesn't want it, then you take it and use it, and I don't need it." ”

"I don't need it, you still think about how to coax Shen Ge. Dooku put the box in Guli's tennis bag.

Gu Lance gasped, his gaze following the couple for a long time.

The couple in the next room was not playing seriously, laughing and chasing each other with a racket, such a cheerful scene made Gu Lance more and more irritated the more he watched.

He would remember when he was in the desert, he and He Shenge ran together, and he saw He Shenge's unbridled smile at that time, which was really attractive.

Thinking, he closed his eyes and didn't look at the couple.

At this time, the watch in the picture of the cold pot skewers last night came to mind.

He kicked Duku in annoyance, got up and said, "Get up and keep fighting." ”

On Monday, the end of September, the autumn breeze picked up and the sky was blue and high.

The door of the office was directly pushed open, and He Shen took the copywriter and rushed in.

Gu Qi, who was talking to the customer on the phone, frowned slightly, ignored the angry flames that erupted from He Shenge's eyes, and continued to discuss the details of the contract with the customer slowly and methodically.

He Shenge put the copywriter on his desk, lay on the table, and played with the magnetic ball on his desk.

He dealt with the customer casually, and the corner of his eye kept spying on He Shenge's small movements.

Although He Shenge, who was in a state of anger, also knew that Gu Lance was doing business, she restrained her urge to unplug the phone line, and kept fiddling with the gadgets on the desk with both hands.

Long.

Gu Lance finally hung up the phone, looking displeased: "Should you knock on the door? You weren't a teacher before? You don't even know this basic etiquette?"

"I'm not now!" He Shenge got up, supported the table with both hands, and stared at Gu Lance angrily: "Say, why don't you pass my copy? What's the problem, you just say, I can't change it? Why pass it directly? Tomorrow is the deadline, you reply to me directly, saying that you don't use my copy, and directly enable the backup copy!"

Gu Lance sat upright, held his hands, put them on the table, and replied solemnly: "Miss He, I am your boss, please pay attention to your words." ”

"Good. He Shenge took a step back, stood up, and tried to hold up a smile: "Editor-in-Chief Gu, are you dissatisfied with my copywriting?"

"Miss He, please go back and check my email again. His face changed suddenly: "Get out." ”

He Shenge and Gu Lance looked at each other for a long time, then withdrew their gaze, clenched their fists, and left silently.

At night, the night sky is dotted with stars.

Gu Lance asked Yuan Yunshu to eat at a Western restaurant because of copywriting.

He saw He Shenge's copywriting today, there are too many questions, if it is released at tomorrow's meeting, according to Yuan Yunshu's businesslike nature, her fate tomorrow will definitely not be much better, he didn't want to care about it, but He Shenge's angry look was replayed over and over again in his mind.

I'm really afraid that this woman will cry at tomorrow's meeting, so he still looks for Yuan Yunshu and tries to see if he can be accommodating.

"Yun Shu. Gu Lance held the wine bottle and poured a glass of wine for Yuan Yunshu opposite, the burgundy liquor occupied one-third of the glass, and then he put down the wine bottle and said: "At tomorrow's meeting, can you give me some face, what's wrong with Shen Ge's copywriting, let's discuss it privately?"

Yuan Yunshu raised her wine glass, clinked glasses with him, took a sip of red wine, the mellow liquid flowed into the bottom of her throat, and she smiled under the lamp: "Ah Li, you weren't like this before." ”

Gu Lance was slightly stunned.

She put down her glass and said, "You used to say that work is work and feelings are feelings, and they can't be mixed up. ”

"Really?" said Koki bowed his head and thinly sliced the steak.

"I thought you loved your work more than you loved me, you were always working overtime, you were always on a business trip, even if you lived in the same room, you were in front of the computer, someone else's boyfriend was at least playing games, and your girlfriend had a reason to disturb, but you were working, and I didn't seem to have a reason to bother you. ”

Gu Lance forked a small piece of beef and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly.

"Tomorrow's meeting, I won't give you face. She picked up the knife and fork: "If there is anything I have learned from you, it is to learn self-love and know how to be proportionate." ”

"Yuan Yunshu. He put down his knife and fork, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth gently, and said slowly: "At the beginning, it was you who abandoned me, don't say it, it seems that I abandoned you, didn't you owe me?"

Yuan Yunshu's hands holding the knife and fork trembled slightly, and the sound of the knife and fork rubbing against the porcelain plate was particularly harsh at this time.

"Since Mr. Yuan has a car, I won't send you away, I'll go first. Gu Lance got up and left the restaurant.

The autumn moon night is not hot, and there is some cool breeze on the road.

Gu Lance got off the bus, and when he looked up, he could see that the building where he rented his house was lit up at this time.

Two years ago, every time he came back, he would look up and see the light on the window of his rent, and he felt at ease, but now, the window is pitch black, and no one has prepared a light for him.

His face showed a faint remorse.

It turned out that he forced her away. But he just wants to make more money, buy a bigger house, buy a car, and then marry her and go home.

He admitted that at that time, he had just entered the Xingshi Travel Agency, and he was only thinking about climbing up, thinking about how to find a topic every day, writing a good copy, and running around with the original department boss, and he forgot to care about Yuan Yunshu, because he firmly believed that she would wait.

Gu Li looked at the house that he had once shared with Yuan Yunshu, and his heart felt as if he was burned by flames.

He lowered his head and turned to leave.

Guangzhou is a very small city, but there are many people and houses.

Gu Lance walked through the flow of people, walked through the streets, passed by the brilliant lights, came to the downstairs of the company, thinking that it would be better to sleep in the office tonight, so he raised his feet and went in.

As soon as the elevator opened, he found that the glass door of the department was unlocked, and slowly stepped in.

In the dark studio, there was a desk with a faint yellowish light, and the light pinned a slender shadow to the white wall.

The ancient lance quietly walked over.

Under the warm light, He Shenge was facing the computer, using a pen to outline the shortcomings of her copywriting, her hair hanging down from the side of her shoulders, and her side face was calm and gentle.

Gu Lance picked up his phone and glanced at the time.
