James Chen left, but Ah Jiu didn't. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info This café is unexpectedly good, in addition to the coffee can be refilled, there are magazines, newspapers, comic books to read, and there is nothing left and right, Ah Jiu is ready to spend a leisurely afternoon here. In the reading area, there is a tablet embedded in the table, which can be used to browse the web, and the Korean Wi-Fi wired and wireless are very cheap, so the coffee shop is also unlimited for data use.

In my memory, the last time I stayed in a library-like place like this was when I was studying at Sungkyunkwan with Krystal. Sungkyunkwan University's library is a famous meeting place in the school, and the design is very clever, and the partition between the bookshelves allows almost every couple to be in a relatively independent space, which is very convenient. Therefore, there is a saying in Sungkyunkwan that people who study seriously do not go to the library, on the contrary, those who go to the library have a very different purpose.

Ah Jiu casually picked up a book from the bookshelf, found a place to sit down, and gently rubbed the book cover, but had no idea of opening it...... Although they have been separated, they still miss seeing similar scenes and cannot be restrained.

Ah Jiu sighed and put the book aside. He lit up the screen of the touch screen, looked at the real-time hot spots, and clicked in casually, and there was nothing worth paying attention to. Suddenly, he felt a person walking in front of him, looked up, frowned slightly, this person he recognized, it was a Chinese compatriot, as if he was in a certain group...... But he couldn't remember the specifics.

"You ......"

"I'm Cao Lu, don't you remember me?"

"Ah...... Cao Lu, remember, why are you here?"

"I'm here to read the comics, it's only five minutes from our dormitory," Cao Lu sat down in front of Ah Jiu, a little restrained, but more enthusiastic: "What about you, why are you here?"

"I met a friend just now, and I happened to be leaving," Ah Jiu remembered what he had helped her before, and asked, "The situation is much better now than before, has the agent bullied you anymore?"

"Have switched to a new agent, so always wanted to thank you. Cao Lu looked at Ah Jiu with some expectation and asked, "Do you have time today?"

"Invite me to dinner...... Ah Jiu hesitated, first of all, he helped Cao Lu, not to let her have a treat, and secondly, if he went to a restaurant to eat, what was the point. Cao Lu observed the words and looks, and seemed to see what Ah Jiu was thinking, and hurriedly said: "I buy vegetables to cook, my skills are very good, I will basically cook whatever you want to eat." ”

"That's it......" Ah Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then where are we going to eat?"

"Let's go grocery shopping first, and then go back to our dormitory!" Cao Lu was very happy when she saw that Ah Jiu agreed, and reached out to take his hand, but Ah Jiu dodged without leaving a trace, stretched out his hand to signal ahead, and said, "Okay, let's go." ”

Cao Lu was a little embarrassed, but she quickly covered it up, walking in front of Ah Jiu and leading the way.

……

Cao Lu has lived in this neighborhood for several years, but not in the same place. At the beginning, she lived in a basement with several other Chinese trainees, and then those Chinese trainees returned to China, and she rented a semi-underground house with a few Korean trainees, and was found by the mother who came to visit, and she was distressed that her daughter rented another floor of the house, and then it became a pre-debut and changed to the current place, three floors above ground, which is the best place for them to live. Five people live in almost 70 square meters, which is not particularly crowded, but for girls with more luggage, it is definitely not very sufficient.

These messages were all said by Cao Lu herself without Ah Jiu asking. Ah Jiu hasn't said much, his mood has been in the range of shocks these days, like illness, he often thinks of Krystal, and then the whole person is in a constant self-contradiction and denial and affirmation, which seems to be a little trance. Cao Lu also saw that his interest was not high, so she wanted to say more to make him happy, but she was not Krystal after all, and although she had worked hard, she still did not achieve the desired effect.

It can be seen that Cao Lu often buys vegetables and is already familiar with the store. I don't know if it's because their combination is not popular enough, she buys vegetables here and doesn't cover up at all, but in fact, no one can recognize her. When I saw Ah Jiu, I thought it was her boyfriend and joked kindly. Ah Jiu didn't say anything, but Cao Lu was very nervous, and quickly explained that it was not or not, but it was all regarded as a double negation, which made all the aunts and uncles laugh.

At the end of the selection, Cao Lu paid the bill. Ah Jiu didn't rush to pay with her, because this was what she said she wanted to treat because of the last time she helped, and if she rushed to pay, I'm sorry for her thoughts. Cao Lu was also very happy that Ah Jiu didn't interfere like that, her smile was more natural, and she could see that she was in a good mood.

Ah Jiu's menu is dumplings and hot pot, two things that don't seem to be eaten together. But for Cao Lu, neither of these is a problem at all. It just so happens that these two foods are what she likes, and she often makes them to eat, and these two foods are not difficult to make, Cao Lu is quite patient with making food, and in the two years when her debut was blocked, she even planned to open a restaurant next to the school...... If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't pay the rent, I really would have done it.

To Ah Jiu's slight surprise, the dormitory was empty and there was no one. Cao Lu explained that it was other people, some of whom had their homes in Seoul, and some of whom had relatives in Seoul, and after the group had income, the power of personal control was also greater, and the company no longer made it mandatory to live in a dormitory. But if you return, you have to be in the dormitory, which is the same as girlhood.

Most of the time, Cao Lu lives here alone. Occasionally, members will come, but none of them will be permanent residents, so her current plan is whether or not to get a pet......

“Oppa…… Ah, I'm used to speaking Korean, that...... Your age is ......."

"It's no problem to call Oppa," Ah Jiu just secretly searched for Cao Lu's age, the two were the same year, but Ah Jiu never asked about his birthday, so he acquiesced that he was older than Cao Lu. Cao Lu also felt normal, nodded with a smile, called Oppa again, and then muttered Oppa...... Although I'm almost past my cute age, I still look cute.

Cao Lu's posture of cooking is definitely not a fist embroidery leg, but a real way to do it. Even a layman can see this. Just like martial arts, when you reach a certain realm, you will naturally 'walk in the clouds', and those who can't cook will be in a hurry. Ah Jiu sat on the sofa and looked at Cao Lu, who was busy in the kitchen, and suddenly felt a little envious, he was not envious of Cao Lu's cooking skills, but envious that if there was such a good cook among his wives, it would be really good.

"I'll help you make noodles...... "It's a little embarrassing to wait for food, Ah Jiu came over to help, but was pushed out by Cao Lu: "My mother taught me since I was a child that the kitchen is not a place where men should come in, so you just wait there to eat...... If you're bored, there's a lot of movies under the TV, so you can see if you like them."

Ah Jiu walked to the TV and really saw a lot of discs. There are very few movies that I still watch on discs these days, Ah Jiu picked it up and watched it, it is indeed not modern, but in the eighties and nineties of the last century, there are Hong Kong films and Western films, and the range seems to be wide. Looking at the label attached to the disc, Ah Jiu understood that it was a disc borrowed from school, and it was not surprising that Cao Lu was a student of the drama college of Central University.

Ah Jiu casually chose a disc and put it in, and the picture that came out made him a little embarrassed, it turned out that this disc with the cover of Ivy on the outside turned out to be a little 'color' movie inside, although the lens was still beautiful, but the sound was ...... Ah Jiu hurriedly withdrew the disc and found a Stephen Chow's comedy and stuffed it in.

Cao Lu actually heard the voice, but it was so embarrassing that she was selectively deaf. Her embarrassment was not that Ah Jiu chose this kind of disc to play, but that she couldn't explain to Ah Jiu why she had such a disc here...... Elderly leftover women also have physiological needs, can it be said?

Cao Lu is a 'fast hand' when it comes to cooking. After asking Ah Jiu about her preferences, she made steamed dumplings, which was also the fastest. Ah Jiu finally saw the stunt of rolling the skin with one hand and making dumplings with the other, which he couldn't do, because when he was in the Oolong Courtyard, he ate pasta without filling.

The hot pot is even simpler, it doesn't take long to wash the vegetables, the most important soup base, Cao Lu actually has a 'stock', it is still red oil, and the chili pepper is the last time her mother came to visit her, and the chili pepper she brought is very authentic.

From the time I came in to the time when Cao Lu finished preparing it, in less than an hour, the two dishes requested by Ah Jiu had already been served. Ah Jiu went to the table and looked at the dishes on this table, which was indeed very tempting. But even this dish dish is a bit shabby, and it doesn't look like a set. Cao Lu was a little embarrassed and said, "These dishes are all bought and moved to change places, and they are reluctant to throw them away...... So I've been saving it all the time, and I don't know if it's become a habit, and the habit of collecting tableware ......"

"It's good."

The steamed dumplings made by Cao Lu are made with a rice cooker because there is no cage drawer, but the taste is the same as the cage drawer. Ah Jiu put one into the bowl and took a bite, it really tasted very good. Cao Lu didn't move her chopsticks, just stared at Ah Jiu, as if waiting for his evaluation. Ah Jiu finished eating a dumpling before he nodded and said, "It tastes very good, if you open a dumpling shop, you can indeed make money." ”

"Yes, I know!" Cao Lu was affirmed, very happy, and talked about her dumpling shop: "My dumpling shop, I have thought of the name, it is called a thin skin and stuffed dumpling shop, this name, there is a homonym of my name in it, absolutely not? When I make enough money and am not a singer, I must open this shop, I have thought about the location, it is at the gate of the university, and I will definitely be able to rob the guests of the canteen." ”

Ah Jiu fished some enoki mushrooms again, and said while eating: "How much does it cost to open a store, why don't I lend it to you, don't count the shares, and slowly pay me back when you make money." ”

"Still don't. Cao Lu smiled and said, "This is my dream, in fact, it doesn't have to be realized so quickly, isn't it good to take it slowly?" My mother told me since I was a child, I don't need to make much money, I can spend it myself. I don't have any big ambitions, just do what I like and be worthy of my hard work. If you help me make this dream come true, then I have to think about another dream, which is very brain-consuming. And I've planned it, so I'll take it slowly, and by the time I retire, I'll have enough money to make. ”

"The mentality is quite good," Ah Jiu smiled and said, "Then if that's the case, you can still contact me at that time, don't forget to remind me, when the time comes, I want to buy shares, you don't have to give me dividends, I can just eat for free." ”

"Okay," Cao Lu agreed with a smile and added another dumpling to Ah Jiu...... Suddenly she remembered something, got up and went back to her room, and after a while came out with a small wine jar in her arms. There was also a flannel cover, Ah Jiu looked at it curiously, Cao Lu was a little embarrassed, and said, "This, my father buried it next to the house in his hometown...... That one...... You've heard it too, my daughter is ......"

Cao Lu said embarrassedly, "My dad thought I would be able to get married at the age of twenty, but how could it be, how old would I be after studying, he had been looking forward to me getting married early, but now I guess I'm desperate." The last time my mother came, I heard that my father had dug up the wine, and this was what he brought to warn me...... I occasionally drink a glass, the prescription is very high, and I faint after drinking, and it is very useful for treating insomnia. You've got a good amount of alcohol, so let's have a drink, and I'm not going to drink it. There's no other wine here, I didn't think about it just now, and I forgot to buy it. ”

"Okay, then pour me a drink."

Ah Jiu is not a good drinker, but what he thinks is that Cao Lu actually took out such an important wine, and it seems even more rude if he doesn't drink it. But how do he know Cao Lu's thoughts, in the tradition of Xiangjiang's children, girls will only give their daughters to the objects of affection. Although I don't want to talk about this now, this girl's mind is the same for thousands of years.

Ah Jiu didn't know this tradition, Cao Lu poured a cup, and he drank it, and the taste was indeed mellow. He doesn't know much about wine, so he can't drink it well or badly, but this wine is cool in the mouth and tastes really good.

"Do you have any plans to return this year?"

"There should be...... I don't know, it seems that there is a plan for the return of the single, "Cao Lu said that she didn't drink it, but she didn't know what to think, so she poured herself a glass and took a sip. She seemed to be really overwhelmed, and her face turned red just by taking a sip.
