8. Chapter 8
Half an hour later, Meng Wutong came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, still wearing the clothes he wore when he entered the door before, and he had to go barefoot without men's slippers. He walked into Shanhe's bedroom and saw her facing away from him, her hair had been dried, sitting on the edge of the bed with her chin in a daze, and she was still wearing the white bathrobe.
This was the first time Meng Wutong had entered her bedroom, and she couldn't help but look at it.
The style of the room is bright and simple, with dark wardrobes and desks, black and white curtains, and a one-meter-eight bed with black and white checkered bedding, which is not like a girl's room, but like a boy's room.
Meng Wutong took two more steps forward, stepped on a piece of white paper under his feet, and made a slight sound.
Shanhe turned around and found Meng Wutong. Her tone was still very light, "You've washed it?" Come here! ”
Meng Wutong walked towards her with some doubts, in fact, he still hadn't figured out what she wanted to do. Let him come to her house so late and let him take a bath. "Sugar Candy ......"
"Sit down!" She gestured to the large soft bed.
Meng Wutong sat down on the edge of the bed with some restraint, and when he looked up, he saw her standing a meter away in front of her, and began to untie the strap of her bathrobe. Before he could realize what was going on, the bathrobe had fallen lightly to the ground. Meng Wutong's breath was suffocated, and a stream of blood rushed to the top of his head.
Under the orange light, her skin glowed with an alluring pale pink sheen, delicate and silky, like clotted cream. Her figure is slender, her shoulders are thin, her two collarbones are particularly beautiful, and the undulating curvature of her chest is even more fatally tempting.
Meng Wutong almost forgot to breathe, and looked at the large spring light in front of him in a daze.
Mountains and rivers walked towards him, and their snow-white and round legs rubbed forward one after the other. Her gaze was cold, without a trace of waves, and she calmly reached out to unbutton his collar for him.
Meng Wutong met her cold gaze, and in an instant, it was as if someone had poured a bucket of ice water on her head. He grabbed her wrist and said withinfully, "Sugar Candy, what are you going to do?" ”
"Repay you."
"In this way?"
"Yes." Her tone was too flat, not a little shy, and the whole process felt like a transaction.
"Why?" Meng Wutong stared at her eyes steadily, trying to find a little bit of love from them, but no, nothing, her eyes were empty and godless, like a puppet without a heart.
"You like me, but I don't like you. I can't give you the love you want, I can only give you a body. ”
Meng Wutong only felt as if he had received a slap in his chest, and his face turned pale. He got up to avoid her, picked up the bathrobe on the floor and draped it over her, and tied her bathrobe with trembling hands to cover all the spring light.
"Don't you want me?" Shanhe's tone finally had a hint of surprise.
"Sugar Candy ......" his voice contained a lot of indescribable bitterness and sadness, "I like you very much, and I want to get you and possess you, but not in this way." ”
Shanhe lowered his eyes, hiding the slightly trembling light in them, and tried his best to say in a steady voice: "I can't give you the way you want, I said it, I hate you, and I will never love you." ”
She hated this kind of guilt from the depths of her heart, especially the guilt of Meng Wutong. She has always repaid her kindness and resentment, especially Meng Wutong's kindness, she didn't want to owe it at all, so she repaid him in this way, but he didn't accept it! Did he think she would be moved if he did this? No, nothing he did could move her, and she would never feel guilty about him.
Meng Wutong smiled bitterly, "I know you hate me and don't love me." But I don't help you to get your reward, you don't have to repay me. ”
"I don't want to owe you a favor." She said stiffly, "Don't try to move me with this method, I won't accept it." ”
"Yes, I understand." His voice was a little hoarse, as if he suppressed infinite sadness, "If you really want to repay me, let me hug you!" Shanhe didn't respond, he knew she agreed, so he stretched out his arms from behind her and took her tiny body into his arms. He hugged her gently, like a precious treasure, not daring to push too hard, for fear of breaking her.
She heard a grunt in his throat and felt his slightly trembling body, as if trying to suppress her inner emotions. But the more he looked like this, the more she hated him in her heart, the more she hated him. She didn't want his pity, she didn't want his affection, she would rather he slam her down on the bed, and after venting, they didn't owe each other.
"Meng Wutong, even if you don't want my body, after tonight, I won't be grateful to you for this kindness. In the future, I don't want to see you again. ”
His body stiffened, and he spat out a word with difficulty: "Good." ”
**
Life is back at peace.
Shanhe still gets up early every day to buy vegetables, but the business of beautiful fried is much lighter than before, and sometimes there are few customers who come to the door all day, which makes people panic.
Everyone in the restaurant looked listless, Uncle Ming sat in the corner, smoking a hookah sullenly; Ami waved the fly swatter, swatting the flies again and again; Ah Yong stood at the door of the hotel, looking at the street outside, and the infrared greeter kept sending out the prompt sound of "welcome", but unfortunately no one came to the door.
Uncle Ming said angrily: "I'm annoyed, don't stand at the door, it's so noisy that Lao Tzu doesn't have the heart to smoke." ”
Shanhe hurriedly turned off the infrared greeter, and the hotel fell into a dead silence again.
Ah Yong said, "I'm out of Kega! ”
"Where are you?" Uncle Ming shouted, "It's not good to go to work again, where are you going to go?" ”
"I don't have a business, what kind of thing do you do like a bag? I'm looking for Ah Ling. Ah Yong slipped away after saying that.
Uncle Ming opened his mouth and was about to scold: "You give Lao Tzu back......"
"Uncle Ming, forget it." Shanhe spoke up, "There is really no business, let Ah Yong go!" ”
"Ugh." Uncle Ming sighed, carried his hookah and turned into the kitchen.
Ami walked up to Shanhe and pulled her sleeve, "Sister, my mother asked me again for this month's salary, what should I do?" ”
Shanhe is even more depressed, now the hotel has no business, before buying a van and freezer, and lost 7,000 yuan to the project department, Boss Zhou's side of the trial compensation still needs a long process, the hotel now has no liquidity at all. Uncle Ming and Ah Yong never mentioned the salary this month, but Ami's mother was aggressive to ask for wages, where did she have the money to pay Ami's salary?
Shanhe knows that Ami's mother is such a person, except for her unsuccessful son, there is only money in her eyes, if Ami can't get the money back, Ami's mother will not only abuse Ami, but also her grandmother. Shanhe patted Ami on the shoulder and said, "Let her wait another week!" Sister think of a way again. ”
Ami nodded, didn't say anything more, she knew that it was really not easy for Shanhe to support the hotel now.
Shanhe walked to the counter and touched the mouse, and the display that was originally a screensaver suddenly lit up. She started browsing local news, hoping to find some business opportunities. When her eyes touched an investment advertisement in the upper right corner, she shouted in surprise: "Group buying is actually coming to Heting, we have a way to live!" ”

At noon, the sun scorches the earth.
Jiang Yu and Lao Wu drove to the Tianfang Tunnel. This is a bridge and tunnel project in an area, with four tunnels, including Tianfang No. 1 and Tianfang No. 2, and what they have to do now is the design work of tunnel blasting in the early stage.
When lunch arrived, the workers put down their work and went to eat.
Jiang Yu and Lao Wu were still discussing how the explosives should be placed in front of the design drawings in their hands.
A worker ran over to them and said, "Manager Jiang, you should go eat first!" ”
Lao Wu looked at the scorching sun in the sky, took off his helmet, wiped his sweat, and said, "Do you want to eat first?" I'm thirsty and hungry. ”
Jiang Yu didn't say anything and nodded.
The two walked along the rugged and steep mountain road for some time, and came halfway up another mountain. There is a small open space here, and a few rooms are simply built, and it has become the usual place for the workers of the ninth team of the tunnel operation frame to sleep and rest.
Due to the hot weather, the workers took off their shirts and sat shirtless under the trees to eat. The black and large mosquitoes in the mountains buzzed around them, ready to find an opportunity to bite from time to time.
Jiang Yu and Lao Wu didn't walk over, but just ate quietly with a lunch box next to them. Their hair and clothes were all soaked with sweat, and when they were eating, the sweat was still pouring out, and the climate was very hot.
"This it's hot to death." Worker A cursed.
"Forget it! It's not even the hottest time! The other man spoke out comfortingly.
"Phew, what kind of dish is this, it's unpalatable." Worker A spit out the cabbage in his mouth and continued to curse, "It's just a hot weather, why do you let us eat such an unpalatable dish?" There is no oil or water at all, it is all boiled. ”
As soon as these words came out, the other workers also chimed in.
"That's right! The fast food I ordered now is too unpalatable. ”
"Eating boiled cabbage every day, there is nothing new at all, alas!"
"I'm throwing up."
When Jiang Yu and Lao Wu heard these words, they glanced at each other and did not speak.
Someone found Jiang Yu and Lao Wu, and immediately whispered: "Don't say it, Manager Jiang is over there!" ”
The workers, who had been complaining just now, were immediately silenced.
Worker A simply walked towards Jiangyu with a lunch box, and said dissatisfiedly: "Manager Jiang, this meal is really unpalatable, and there is so little oil and water, how can we work when we eat such a meal?" ”
Jiang Yu said calmly: "I'm sorry, I'll go to the owner of the restaurant and ask them to add more oil and water." ”
The workers also knew that Jiang Yu was such a lukewarm disposition, so it was not surprising that he would say this.
"No, it's not just a matter of less oil and water, the key is that the taste is too unpalatable, and I really don't want to eat it." Worker A glanced back at the workers, and the little eyes that were supported by the workers turned back and continued: "Can you change back to the previous restaurant?" After eating fast food for so long, we all think that the fast food in that house is the most delicious, and they often change the dishes, so everyone will not get tired of eating. ”
Jiang Yu and Lao Wu both understood in their hearts that the restaurant that the workers were referring to was beautiful frying.
Frankly speaking, the beautiful fried fast food is made with the most care in terms of both the amount and the dishes, and the taste is difficult to fake, and you will know if it is good or not. According to their dishes, it can also be seen that their food delivery profits are the lowest, and if other restaurants want to provide the same level of fast food, the price of each fast food will increase by at least five yuan.
Jiang Yu pursed his lips and did not speak.
Lao Wu glanced at the worker and said to Jiangyu: "Other rack teams have also had feedback these days, and they all said that they don't want to eat this fast food anymore, and I also think it's very unpalatable." Why don't we change back to beautiful frying! The laxatives were not ordered by Xiaoshan, and the person who gave the medicine was also arrested, so it will be fine. ”
Jiang Yu sank his shoulders and said in a slightly regretful tone, "But...... I'm afraid that Shanhe won't want to cooperate with us anymore. ”
