Chapter 26: The "White Egret" in the Toilet
It's really a comrade-in-arms, thinking back to the days of that time, Li Cai couldn't help but show a wry smile, really every day is like fighting.
Ji Wantong finally persuaded Li Cai's uncle and left Li Cai by his side. However, her approach was difficult for the people of the Ji family, whether it was her parents or her brother Ji Zhengyuan, to accept, or even understand.
When she and Li Jinshan got married, the Ji family did a very fierce ideological struggle, and they were finally forced to accept it. Now that the adults are gone, you still have to help others raise children, isn't this a brain disease?
So it is conceivable that during that time, the people of the Ji family came to the door almost every day, and Ji Wantong took Li Cai to hide from friends and colleagues as if they were fighting guerrillas. There was really nowhere to hide, and the two even lived in a hotel for half a month.
Now that I think about it, the relationship between the two of them is so good now, and there is not much difference between them and their biological mother and son, it should be that at that time, it was accumulated and tempered little by little.
This kind of life has been going on for nearly a year, and in the end, there is really no other way, so the Ji family has no choice but to admit it and accept Li Cai, Ji Wantong's cheap son.
said that it was a son, but the relationship between Li Cai and Ji Wantong was actually more like a brother and sister, after all, the age difference between the two was really not big.
……
Huang Youyou entered the donkey meat restaurant, and the first time, Li Cai did not go to Ji Wantong, but ran to the bathroom first to wash his hands, you know the reason.
The donkey meat restaurant is not big, only about 200 square meters, all of which are separated from single rooms, with a total of less than 20 tables.
It has been open here for many years, because the taste is not bad, and the price is also appropriate, so people from several nearby units prefer to come here to eat.
The bathroom is located in a corner of the dining room, regardless of gender, in one room, which is divided into four partitions, all of which are the same squatting urinal of the past.
After Li Cai came in, he walked directly to the sink, squeezed some blue hand sanitizer, rubbed it twice, and then turned on the faucet to rinse it.
And it was at this time, accompanied by the sound of flowing water, that suddenly, he heard a woman's voice ringing in his ears: "Hello, is there anyone outside?"
This voice is quite good, soft-spoken, melodious, just like the egret crying on the edge of the willow pond, revealing such a non-vulgar water spirit.
Li Cai was stunned, and he didn't see anyone else in the toilet. After scanning around, he finally found that three of the doors of the four compartments were open, except for the innermost one, which was tightly closed.
When I was pondering, I heard the voice sound again: "I'm sorry, are you still outside?" I'm in the innermost compartment, I didn't find that there is no paper in the compartment when I came in just now, and I didn't bring my mobile phone, I've been squatting for a long time, you are the first person to come in, can you bother to get me a wrapping paper?"
Hi, the melodious and tactful "egret" forgot to bring paper to the toilet!
Li Cai was speechless, not to mention anything else, just because this girl's voice is so good, she has to help!
Li Cai sweated for a moment, and quickly replied: "Hey, hello, hello, I heard it, wait a minute, I'll go out to the counter and buy you a pack, and I'll be back soon." ”
Hearing that it was a man talking back outside, "Egret" seemed a little shy, but she couldn't care about it so much at this time, she hurriedly replied: "Okay, thank you, I'll wait." ”
"Gotcha!" Turning around, Li Cai trotted out of the bathroom, went to the front desk of the restaurant and bought a pack of tissues for two yuan, and hurriedly walked back.
Walking back to the innermost partition in the bathroom, he said, "Hello, I'm back, I'll help you throw the tissue from above, you can take it!"
"Well, okay, thank you. The answer was instantaneous.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes, you're ready. ”
"Okay, let's go!" With a slight effort, Li threw the tissue through a gap about ten centimeters wide at the top of the partition.
Two seconds later, I heard a "pop" sound inside, and it was supposed to be the "egret" who caught the tissue.
After making sure that it was caught inside, Li Cai said again: "Okay, then you are busy, I'll go first." ”
He didn't want to stay longer, and when the girls came out, how embarrassing it would be to see each other. It's better to leave a good memory for each other, such as thinking of this person who inadvertently passed by in your life after the dry year.
"Okay, thank you. Hearing Li Cai's words, the "egret" solemnly thanked him again.
"You're welcome, goodbye. Knowing that she couldn't see it inside, Li Cai still waved his hand sassyly, and then turned around and walked out of the bathroom.
……
Li Cai always followed Ji Wantong to this donkey meat restaurant to eat when he was a child, and the door was very clear.
After coming out, he came directly to the private room that his mother told him on the phone, and as soon as he opened the curtain, he saw Ji Wantong gnawing on a big donkey meat inside.
"It's been almost an hour, why are you swollen before you came over?" After seeing her, Ji Wantong complained vaguely while chewing in her mouth.
"Isn't it bad to take a taxi? Li Cai was not polite, took out the dishes and chopsticks from the cabinet next to him, and then pulled out a chair and sat down directly.
After sitting down, he asked Ji Wantong, "Who are you going to invite today? What kind of friend? Isn't it a little too dignified to go to this small restaurant to entertain?"
"No, not an outsider. Ji Wantong swallowed this fire: "I invited my best friend today, we are junior and senior high school classmates, you haven't seen her." She went abroad after graduating from university, stayed abroad for many years, and only returned to China this year. ”
"We have been out of touch for many years, and I went to CCTV a few days ago to run into her again. ”
Speaking of which, Ji Wantong added: "She is a business student, and she used to be the manager of the operations department of the BBC, but she was brought back by CCTV's advertising department with a high salary last month, and now she is the deputy director of the advertising department." ”
"Hey, the head of the hall!" Hearing this, Li Cai was taken aback.
CCTV is a vice-ministerial-level unit, and the advertising department is his subordinate department. The deputy director of the advertising department, the second-in-command, of course, is the title of deputy director.
The capital jokingly said that a place where a billboard fell and could kill the director of the department, and it was not particularly rare for the deputy department level to be killed. But the scary thing is that this person and Ji Wantong are classmates, and they must be the same age, and they are in their early thirties.
At this age, being able to be a deputy department level is really a bit powerful. Only institutions and enterprises such as CCTV or petroleum and petrochemical can do it.
Li Cai was finally a little curious about Ji Wantong, his best friend who had never been masked, and he couldn't help but ask Ji Wantong curiously: "Where did your hall chief girlfriend go, why didn't you see it?"
Ji Wantong took a sip of Ejiao red date soup, and her tone was a little puzzled: "She went to the bathroom just now, and she has been going for a while, should she come back?"
"Bathroom?" Hearing this, Li Cai couldn't help but be stunned, his face changed suddenly, and he couldn't help but think of something. It can't be so coincidental, no, what's wrong with me today, Li Cai wants to cry without tears......
