CHAPTER XLII

The clerk smiled and took out a few bottles of drinks and put them on the cash register, and said with a smile: "There are very few of these goods, we can only get one box each time we buy them, and they sell very quickly. ”

Luan Chi was just about to reach out for a bottle, when he saw the clerk graciously stuff another bottle, "Try this too, the latest." ”

He understood what he meant, took out his wallet and paid for it, then picked up two bottles of drinks and walked straight out of the house with a blank face.

Compared with the clerk's enthusiasm, Luan Chi seemed a little cold, afraid that the other party would be embarrassed, Ying Ning had no choice but to smile at the clerk and follow.

She always felt that Luan Chi was a little weird, and she couldn't say it, but she was surprised that he could accept this kind of drink now, and he would never touch these things before.

It seems that time has changed, and it is no longer one who is alone.

The snack bar that Ying Ning said is indeed the kind of small shop that opens on the side of the road, and the place that is too high-end is not what she can stand now.

Fortunately, in the past few years with Luan Chi, I have eaten delicacies from the mountains and seas, and there are no fewer roadside food stalls, basically, the two of them belong to the cold and taboo, never care about the location, and do not care whether the environment is clean or not, as long as the taste in the mouth is good, it is enough.

"Here it is, girl. ”

Because Ying Ning often comes to eat bowls of noodles when she gets off work, even the boss knows her, and this time when she sees that there is a boy of the same age next to her, she can't help but squint and smile: "I brought my boyfriend here." ”

Ying Ning smiled awkwardly, but fortunately, Luan Chi didn't say anything, sat down opposite her, and looked up at the menu on the wall.

The two of them each ordered different noodles and a few side dishes, there are not many things to order here, they are all steamed porridge, noodles and dumplings, etc., prepared for people who work late and early, Luan Chi is not picky, and ordered two bottles of beer.

"I don't drink, I can't help it when I go to work, and I definitely don't touch a drop when I get off work. ”

Seeing that he was about to pour himself wine, Ying Ning hurriedly stretched out his hand to block the cup in front of him, then poured some tea into it, and said with a smile: "I'll replace wine with tea." ”

However, Luan Chi seemed to have something on his mind, and he poured a full wine glass and drank it first.

"You take a few bites before you drink. ”

Ying Ning was a little worried about him, thinking about it, being a little white face raised by a woman is also a great humiliation for Luan Chi.

She wanted to ask what he had done to make Luan Jin angry to the point of breaking off the father-son relationship with him, but when the words came to her mouth, she didn't know how to say it. Over the past year or so, too many unimaginable things have happened, everything has changed, including her relationship with him, which used to be so talkative, and there is no one in the world who knows each other better than them, but now, they are just, people who are slightly more familiar than strangers.

Luan Chi was silent, and when the noodles he ordered were just served, the two bottles of beer were empty.

"Boss, four more bottles. ”

He broke the instant chopsticks, greeted the boss again, then lowered his head and ate the noodles, and praised: "The taste is really good!"

Ying Ning wanted to stop him and prevent him from drinking, but when he thought that this might be the last time he would face him face to face, so close together, he didn't make a sound to stop him.

She lowered her head and pulled the noodles, obviously very hungry, but she had no appetite, she couldn't say anything when she was holding back her words, that kind of taste, it was really uncomfortable.

"Do you have any dreams?"

Luan Chi drank another bottle of wine, wiped his mouth, and asked while eating with side dishes.

Ying Ning put down her chopsticks, tilted her head and thought about it before saying, "Yes, how can people live without dreams." It's just that some of them can be realized, and some of them can't. I just want to find the person I love, but unfortunately he doesn't remember me. ”

Holding her cheeks, she couldn't help but stare into the distance, lost in thought.

Luan Chi, who was pouring wine, shook his hand slightly, and said in surprise: "You...... Someone you like?"

Ying Ning nodded subconsciously.

He was a little disappointed, a little melancholy, and a little sour. After drinking the beer in the cup in one gulp, Luan Chi was a little annoyed and said in a low voice: "Then why did you still ...... that night?"

She suddenly came back to her senses, but she didn't expect the two of them to talk about it again, so she immediately grabbed her chopsticks and lowered her head to eat noodles.

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end, one eating noodles and the other drinking.

When checking out, Luan Chi did not give in, and really let Ying Ning treat him.

He got up, staggered, didn't seem to stand still, and threw himself on top of her. Ying Ning hurriedly supported him while collecting the change he had recovered, and said in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"

Luan Chi yawned, seemed sleepy, and said indistinctly, "A little too much to drink...... Headache, dizziness ......"

Ying Ning couldn't help but say, grabbed his shoulder, and said hurriedly: "You hold on, I'll send you back to the bar!"

Unexpectedly, he grabbed her hand tightly, stood on the side of the road with her, like a child, stubbornly and loudly refused: "I won't go back!"

Her scalp tingled, and she felt as if she had made a mistake unintentionally and shouldn't have called him out. Now, it seems that he is in some trouble, if Zhong Wanmei knows that the two of them will go out in private......

"Where else can you go but the bar? I'll send you back. ”

Seeing that Luan Chi kept saying that he couldn't return to the "style", Ying Ning had to reach out to stop the taxi, just right, a car slowly stopped on the side of the road, and she helped Luan Chi get into the car.

The car started and drove towards the main section, Ying Ning just wanted to ask again, but a low snoring sound came from his arms, and Luan Chi was actually asleep.

"Miss, where are you going, it's been a few minutes since I got in the car, where am I going?"

The driver couldn't wait any longer and urged.

Ying Ning had no choice but to report the address of the place where she lived temporarily. Fortunately, her roommate is a college student, and it happens to be graduation season these days, and they are very busy, so they don't come back much, and she lives alone, otherwise, she will never bring the opposite sex to rent a room.

Tossing and bringing Luan Chi into the room and dragging him to the bed in his room, Ying Ning was already tired and sweating.

Fortunately, although he drank too much, he was not completely unconscious, let him take a step, he would subconsciously obey and do as he was told, otherwise, she would not be able to carry him upstairs.

She went down to the kitchen to make a bowl of ginger soup, fed him to drink, and helped him take off the shoes on his feet and cover the quilt, she really had no strength, closed the bedroom door, and then collapsed on the sofa in the living room.

After lying down for half an hour, Luan Chi, who was originally drunk and confused, suddenly opened his eyes, and there was no trace of chaos in his eyes.

He waited a few minutes before he sat up silently, got up, put on his shoes, and gently pushed the door open.

Seeing that Ying Ning was asleep on the sofa, he turned around and took out a thin blanket that had been stacked at the head of the bed, helped her cover her, and then stepped aside to get the bottle of drink that he held tightly in his arms even when he was pretending to be drunk.

He shook it, seeing that there was nothing unusual about the liquid inside, before carefully beginning to remove the layer of plastic paper on it.

A whole piece of paper was removed, and there was nothing on the back, Luan Chi didn't give up, walked to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and turned on the water flow very small so as not to make a sound.

He rubbed the paper lightly with his hand, and sure enough, as the water got wet, a layer of glue was washed off, and then a string of numbers gradually appeared on it.
