Chapter 25: The Mist

Before Gong Yuze got off work, he took out the stomach adjustment plan that Zhu Xiaodong gave him.

His fingers slowly slid down from top to bottom.

He found today, which was clearly printed: June 3rd, ten hamburgers at noon, porridge for dinner

These four words are simply a gift to him!

He didn't know why, no matter how much he ate the hamburger, even if his stomach was about to explode, he still had a sense of dissatisfaction, as if the burger would never produce a spirit that could not satisfy him.

He needed porridge, more than ever! He folded the schedule and put it in his trouser pocket.

At this time, Gong Yuze's mind had probably locked on a porridge shop.

This porridge shop is right next to his house.

The home is actually one of the low-cost apartment buildings near the East River, five stations away from the company.

He chose the apartment because of the cheap rent.

……

Gong Yuze saw the dilapidated apartment building from a distance.

The exterior walls of the gray-green apartment buildings, the skin of which has fallen off in many places, are mottled and unsightly.

Some of the windows in the hallway were glass-cladbed, and some were nailed to them, and the cardboard was covered with dust.

Next to the apartment building is this porridge shop.

In contrast, this porridge shop looks bright and spacious. The big red sign is exciting!

Two large portions of seafood porridge. He used the pencil on the table. A heavy tick was drawn on the light gray buffet menu.

He had just handed the menu to the waiter.

At this time, a man in his 30s, with squinted eyes, thick lips and rough skin, walked across the street, looking simple and honest.

The man walked straight to Gong Yuze: "Hello!"

Gong Yuze thought that this person was asking if there was anyone in the empty seat opposite him. Before Gong Yuze could wave his hand, this person spoke again: "If I'm not mistaken, are you Gong Yuze, the second place in the last Big Stomach King Qualifier?"

Gong Yuze couldn't help but be stunned: "How do you know?"

"I saw it online occasionally. The man said and sat down.

Gong Yuze nodded and stopped talking.

The man put down the big backpack in his hand, and then accosted: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to touch you." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"This is also a kind of fate, I also ordered porridge, or let's compare the two of us. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm a little tired......"

"Isn't two bowls of porridge a piece of cake for you?"

"No, I ......"

"That's it, okay? If you say anything, you will look down on me!" said the man, who took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and took out a pen and began to write on his own.

Gong Yuze immediately became vigilant, and he remembered Tian Peng.

Could it be that the conspiracy suffered by Tian Peng is now going to be his turn again?

Gong Yuze watched the man bow his head and finish writing, and sneered: "I didn't promise to compare with you." He reached out and took the piece of paper first, and sure enough, it was a thick piece of postcard-sized paper.

It reads: Two large bowls of seafood porridge, the one who finishes it first wins. The loser bears the full cost for both of them.

Gong Yuze took the piece of paper in front of him, turned it over and fumbled, and looked at the four corners of the paper carefully, he was sure that one of the corners could be lifted, and there was a copy coating!

However, Gong Yuze studied for a full five minutes. Nothing was found.

This man seemed to see his thoughts, and said with a hahaha: "Brother, you think too much." ”

Gong Yuze realized that he was indeed a little suspicious, and he smiled embarrassedly.

"No problem, let's compare. ”

……

Seafood porridge for two people is served at the same time.

A few bowls of porridge were steaming, and the steaming heat made the two sit opposite each other, but no one could see anyone.

The aroma of seafood porridge made Gong Yuze's appetite greater, and squid, sea cucumber and shrimp loomed in the crystal rice porridge in the bowl.

The man pulled out his phone and found the timer function.

Begin!

Gong Yuze quickly picked up the white porcelain spoon, he didn't stir the whole bowl of porridge, but only blew the top layer, and then used the spoon to scoop up the most superficial layer of porridge, only the side that touched the air was the easiest to cool.

He brought the porridge to his mouth. Although it was hot, it seemed to be tolerable to the degree.

The person on the other side did not reach for a spoon or any utensils, but took out a portable cooler from the bag he was carrying.

He snapped open the lid of the box and poured a pile of ice out of it.

The ice cubes were crystal clear, the size of a sugar cube, and they disappeared in an instant when they were poured into the porridge.

Gong Yuze was stunned.

"What?you, you brought your own ice cubes?!"

The man ignored him, but took the bowl and poured the porridge into his mouth.

This sudden change made Gong Yuze extremely annoyed.

But he has no way back now, and he has to win this fight!

Gong Yuze gulped the porridge in the bowl, and each bite was to use all his strength to blow the porridge noodles out of the pits one by one.

But no matter how much he blew it, the porridge in his mouth was still very hot.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a scream.

As soon as Gong Yuze looked up, he saw that the head of the person opposite was pressed into the porridge bowl by a big hand, and at the same time, a voice came: "Even you dare to use this kind of trick!"

Everyone in the hotel was stunned. People don't know what's really going on.

And Gong Yuze was so surprised that he almost spit out the porridge in his mouth: "It's you!" He shouted: "Chi, Chi Jian!"

Chi Jian didn't respond to Gong Yuze, but grabbed the man's collar.

The man had been unrecognizable, and his face was full of porridge poured down his neck into his shirt. The man squinted his captivated eyes and touched the tissues here and there like a blind man.

I saw Chi Jian yelling at the man in a low voice: "Get out!"

The shopkeeper walked out, and Chi Jian looked apologetic: "I've caused trouble in your store." As he spoke, he took out a handful of money from his pocket and put it in the shopkeeper's hand: "I'll pay for the porridge."

Chi Jian returned to his seat, picked up the piece of paper that had been set up as a note just now, and tore it to shreds.

Since the last time he had a small steamed bun competition in Jizhao, Gong Yuze had never seen Chi Jian again.

Seeing this today, Chi Jian was like two people.

Gong Yuze's mind was foggy.

Chi Jian pointed to the shredded notes on the table: "Don't be naΓ―ve. Do you think the tricks you used on Tian Peng will still be used on you?"

Chi Jian helped his glasses. Gong Yuze saw that his rebellious eyebrows were still unkempt, and the two striking ears were still supported like a fan, but he couldn't say what point had changed on his face.

Chi Jian continued: "This time they don't want to get your signature, but to burn your place!"

Chi Jian said and pointed at the tongue that came out.

Gong Yuze suddenly realized.

Only then did he feel that the few bites of seafood porridge he had eaten in a hurry just now had made his tongue hot.

He didn't want to drink porridge anymore, and walked out of the porridge shop with Chi Jian one after another.

Chi Jian seemed to have seen Gong Yuze's thoughts a long time ago: "Let me tell you the truth, I withdrew from the Southern Association." ”

"The way I used to eat was ...... It's a shame!"

He didn't wait for Gong Yuze to speak, he clenched his fist at Gong Yuze: "I know you used to have a bad impression of me, but now I have nothing to do with the Southern Sect." ”

Gong Yuze saw Chi Jian's sincere face, and hurriedly replied: "It's all in the past, you ...... now"

"Now, I want to ask you something, can you say a few kind words to President Lin Suwen and let me join the Northern Association?" Chi Jian looked at Gong Yuze expectantly after speaking.

"Oh, I haven't joined yet. I, I'm afraid I can't help you. ”

Gong Yuze had a mystery in his heart that had not been solved, and he didn't know what this Chi Jian had experienced.

He only clearly remembered that time in the auspicious omen, Chi Jian's expression of resentment towards Li Yunzhong when he was leaving.

Gong Yuze knew that with his identity and current situation, he couldn't agree to any of Chi Jian's requests. What's more, his bad impression of Chi Jian has not been completely eliminated.

He turned and prepared to walk in the direction of the apartment building.

"Slow, don't you want to hear information about Han Tianrui? I'm afraid this is information that even President Lin doesn't know. ”

Gong Yuze was not surprised when he heard Han Tianrui's name.

He was surprised that the information that Chi Jian was about to say didn't even know Lin Suwen.

Gong Yuze stopped and turned back to .......
