Text Chapter 73 Chance Encounter
In the afternoon, Mu Fan and Dai Xueer visited the entire Wangfujing, but they visited all clothing stores.
Mu Fan was holding a large handbag in his right hand, and Dai Xue'er's white and tender little hand was holding in his left hand.
Ever since he got the virtual screen, Mu Fan has been experiencing all kinds of things and has never been idle.
It's no longer like before, when I'm idle, I can accompany my parents to the supermarket and come out for a meal.
Suddenly returning to normal life, Mu Fan felt a little uncomfortable, he couldn't help but sigh, he is a modern person, even if he is a "spirit" now, he should live a normal life, he can't live that kind of day of fighting and killing every day, right?
Mu Fan's desire to become stronger through the virtual screen is so that he can no longer be swayed by the world and live the life he wants, instead of being scared every day, so he feels the need to adjust his mentality.
"Xue'er, are you hungry?" Mu Fan asked with a smile, it was past five o'clock now, and he himself felt a little hungry.
"It's okay, are you hungry?" Dai Xue'er said with a smile, a pair of little tiger teeth are cute.
"Hey, sort of. Mu Fan smiled.
"Then let's go buy something to eat. Dai Xueer said playfully.
"Let's go. ”
There was a food court on the fourth floor, and Mu Fan and the others came here.
"It smells so good. Mu Fan smelled a burst of fragrance from afar.
"I remember that there was a 'pork rib rice cake' here that was particularly delicious. Dai Xueer said.
"Really, go and find it. ”
After a while, Mu Fan and the others found the "Pork Rib Rice Cake", which was a small storefront with the sign of "Little Changzhou Pork Rib Rice Cake", and the fragrance wafted far away.
"That's a lot of people. Dai Xueer sighed as she looked at the long queue.
"I'm going to get in line. Mu Fan walked to the front desk and lined up, there were still many people in front, and it was estimated that it would take half an hour to wait.
"I guess we'll have to wait a while. Mu Fan took the number and said helplessly to Dai Xue'er.
"It's okay, then we'll wait. Dai Xueer smiled.
"Why is this shop so popular?" Mu Fan had never eaten this before, and he had never heard of it, and then he saw the introduction in front of the store.
The small Changzhou pork rib rice cake is made of pork backbone meat from Changzhou, Wuxi and other places, marinated in soy sauce, and then put into an oil pot mixed with soy sauce, oil, sugar, green onion and ginger, wine, etc., until the color is purple red, the meat is fresh and tender, and the taste is strong and fragrant. At the same time, after the Songjiang rice is cooked, put it in the stone mortar and beat it repeatedly with a hammer, take it out after beating until the rice has no whole grain, cut 20 pieces per 500 grams, wrap a small piece of pork ribs that have been soaked in each root, and then boil it in the sauce oil pot, when eating, sprinkle with five-spice powder, then there is the strong fragrance of pork ribs, and the soft glutinous crispiness of rice cakes, which is very delicious.
Mu Fan couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw it, it looked really delicious.
"I've been here many times before, and of course it's delicious. Dai Xueer smiled playfully.
"Hey, Mu Fan?" Just as Mu Fan and Dai Xue'er were waiting in line on the side, a surprised voice suddenly came.
Hearing this, Mu Fan and Dai Xue'er were stunned, and immediately turned their heads to look over.
It was a man and a woman, holding hands and wearing couple clothes, looking about the same age as Mu Fan.
"Are you...... Cao Xingfa?" Mu Fan asked with some uncertainty as he looked at the young man.
When the young man heard Mu Fan's words, his brows furrowed, he was Mu Fan's high school classmate, and the high school they attended was not in City D, but the No. 1 Senior High School in City C, and both of them were from City D, and they came back by car together during the holidays or something.
"Mu Fan, what's wrong? I don't even know my old classmates?" The young man's name was Cao Xingfa, and when he heard Mu Fan's uncertain tone, he felt a little unhappy in his heart and felt very shameless.
"How can it be, it's not like I haven't seen you for too long, it's been four or five years, right?" Mu Fan's perception was so keen, he instantly felt Cao Xingfa's dissatisfaction, and hurriedly smiled.
Mu Fan remembered that the two were in the same high school at the time, but since graduating from high school, they had never seen each other again, although they were in the same city of D, they had never been in contact, so they didn't recognize each other for a while.
"It's been more than four years, and both of us are in D City, but we haven't seen each other since we graduated. Cao Xingfa said lightly.
Mu Fan chatted with him casually and talked about college life.
Mu Fan remembered that Cao Xingfa's academic performance in high school was very good, and Cao Xingfa told that he was admitted to a 211 university in another province, and now he is also successful in the postgraduate entrance examination, and continues to study in that university, looking at his expression is very high-spirited.
"Mu Fan, what are you doing now? You won't stay at home every day, right?" Cao Xingfa suddenly asked.
The woman next to Cao Xingfa has a good figure and looks like she is middle and upper-class, but her makeup is a little thick and looks a little distorted.
But Dai Xue'er next to Mu Fan is without makeup, completely "born beautiful", white and beautiful, full of youthful vitality, and when the two stand together and compare, there is a gap in an instant.
"Me? huh...... Now it's time to be a civilian in the Ministry of Armed Forces. Mu Fan thought about it and said, his relationship with Cao Xingfa is actually very ordinary, so there is no need to tell him in such detail.
"Oh, the Ministry of Armed Forces, why did you think of going to the Ministry of Armed Forces?" Hearing this, Cao Xingfa asked with some surprise, after all, the university that Mu Fan went to was not a military academy or anything, and it basically had nothing to do with this.
Mu Fan shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "Someone introduced me." ”
Cao Xingfa frowned, thinking to himself Could it be that Mu Fan, this kid, is still a second-generation official?
When he was about to ask, Mu Fan said directly: "My position in the Armed Forces Department is very miscellaneous, in fact, I am not a member of the army, that is, I am a mixed meal." ”
Mu Fan knew what Cao Xingfa was thinking, and he didn't want Cao Xingfa to misunderstand.
"Oh...... I said so. Cao Xing let out a serious sigh, revealing an expression of sudden realization.
Mu Fan smiled and nodded, but Dai Xue'er frowned slightly, she heard the meaning of Cao Xingfa's words, and it was obvious that Cao Xingfa felt that Mu Fan did not deserve a decent job, otherwise he would be unbalanced in his heart.
Mu Fan gently pinched Dai Xue'er's little hand and smiled at her, Dai Xue'er understood what Mu Fan meant, don't care about other people's opinions, just live by themselves.
The woman next to Cao Xingfa heard Mu Fan's words just now, and the corners of her mouth inadvertently twitched, although the movements were very subtle, but they were discovered by Mu Fan and Dai Xue'er.
"Mu Fan, is this your girlfriend?" Cao Xingfa suddenly looked at Dai Xue'er, who was holding hands with Mu Fan, and asked.
Mu Fan was caught off guard by the question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, and looked at Dai Xue'er who was in the same situation with some embarrassment, who held his hand harder.
"Hmm. In the end, Mu Fan simply responded directly.
"This is my girlfriend, Xiao Ying, who is also a college classmate with me. Cao Xingfa introduced, and at the same time, he didn't know why he was very awkward, because he felt that Dai Xue'er looked more temperamental and beautiful than Xiao Ying, and she was also Mu Fan's girlfriend, so he subconsciously felt that he couldn't compare.
"My name is Michelle Dai. Dai Xue'er said lightly.
"Xue'er, what are you doing?" Xiao Ying suddenly spoke, although she was very reluctant to admit it, Dai Xue'er was indeed much better looking than her, which made her feel a wave of jealousy.
"I, like Mu Fan. Dai Xue'er said casually, since Mu Fan didn't want to worry too much about them, she would follow Mu Fan.
"Huh, that's a pity, you guys are probably living in poverty, right?" Hearing this, Xiao Ying had a strong sense of superiority in her heart, and said with a pretended regret, but it sounded a little bitter.
"Probably. Mu Fan said lightly, his tone was already a little cold, although he didn't want to worry about Cao Xingfa and the others, but he was extremely disgusted to hear Xiao Ying say this, especially in front of Dai Xue'er.
Xiao Ying pursed her lips again, thinking to herself that you can pretend, what kind of good life can two people who do chores live.
"Hey, Mu Fan, do you have something to do tomorrow?" Cao Xingfa asked.
"No, what's wrong?" Mu Fan frowned, he didn't want to talk to Cao Xingfa and the two anymore, but the "pork rib rice cake" hadn't reached his number yet, so he could only wait here.
Cao Xingfa paused for a moment and said, "That's the case, I met with the class president a few days ago, and then the two of us discussed it and decided to hold a class reunion at noon tomorrow, and we have already notified the others, do you think you can come?"
Mu Fan was a little speechless in his heart, he remembered that Cao Xingfa in high school was the kind of stuffy oil bottle who didn't like to talk very much, and only knew how to study, and he didn't participate in the party in high school before, why was he so active now, as if he Cao Xingfa was the class president of high school.
"Everyone else has been notified?" Mu Fan asked rhetorically.
"It's basically over. Cao Xingfa subconsciously responded, as soon as he said it, he felt that he had said the wrong thing, everyone else had notified him but did not call Mu Fan, but then he was relieved, Mu Fan was just a small chores, what could he do if he didn't shout?
"Ah, okay, I'm fine, where is tomorrow? Mu Fan agreed directly, he was indeed a little unhappy in his heart, he was very popular in the class in high school, especially a few iron buddies, but he didn't receive the news of the class reunion, and it seemed that he had forgotten about him.
Hearing this, Cao Xingfa was stunned, he actually just asked politely, but he didn't expect Mu Fan to agree directly.
"In the Molybdenum Du Lihao International Hotel in C City, Mu Fan, in fact, if you think the economy is not very rich, ......" Cao Xingfa "kindly" reminded that Molybdenum Du Lihao is a star-rated hotel, and they go to dinner is AA system, he thinks that Mu Fan does not have this kind of economic conditions, and wants him to retreat.
"I know, it's fine. Mu Fan directly interrupted Cao Xingfa's words.
Cao Xingfa was a little annoyed, thinking that you can go as soon as you go, and then wait for the foreign appearance.
