Chapter Twenty-Eight: Life Is Like a Hot Pot

"Who is so annoying in the morning!" Chu Ge rubbed his eyes and said unhappily.

Today is Saturday, and he finally doesn't have to go to school or look for a job, and when he wants to sleep at home, he is woken up by the ringing of the phone.

"No matter who you are, you'd better give me a reasonable reason, otherwise you'll ......," Chu Ge, who was out of breath, said in a threatening tone.

"Chu ...... Chu Ge, it's me, I'm Wang Yingjun......" Chu Ge's fierce tone made the voice on the other side tremble a little.

"Huh?" Hearing this familiar voice, the unhappy expression on Chu Ge's face suddenly disappeared, "Little Fatty, why didn't you play the game yesterday, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Tsk, this person is really talking nonsense with his eyes open, obviously as soon as he saw that Xiaopang was not there, he immediately went to arrange a multi-person cooperative copy by himself.

"Well, it's not busy. Xiaopang said helplessly: "Yesterday my dad launched a new hot pot base, and he asked me to bring it over for you to taste in the evening." ”

"Okay. Hearing the word hot pot, Chu Ge suddenly felt a lot more energetic, and the sleepy insect in his eyes was gone.

Wang Yingjun is Chu Ge's youngest child, when they were in high school, they were still in the same school, and later in college, they separated.

Wang Yingjun's family runs a restaurant, and when he was a child, Chu Ge often went to his restaurant to eat, and over time, his family got used to it, and whenever there was a good recipe or a new dish, he would give Chu Ge a taste.

Chubby himself also loves to eat, otherwise, Chu Ge would not call him Chubby every day. Chu Ge always felt that maybe one day, Xiaopang's restaurant would go out of business, and he would eat it.

"Then it's settled. A chubby happy voice came from the phone, "I'll bring the base and meat in the afternoon, you go buy some vegetables and other ingredients, and we will eat hot pot at your house in the evening!"

"See you in the evening. ”

After Chu Ge hung up the phone, he originally wanted to sleep for a while, but he thought that he had to go to the supermarket to buy ingredients, so he got up directly.

"Death is around!"

"Anna, watch out for the Iron Fist!"

"The sledgehammer's shield is gone, gather fire!"

In the living room, Chu Xiaowu got up earlier than Chu Ge, and was playing games early in the morning.

Seeing this scene, Chu Ge shook his head helplessly, Internet addicted girl, Internet addicted girl.

"Stop playing, we'll go out later. ”

"What are you doing when you go out?" asked Chu Xiaowu without replying.

"We went to the supermarket to buy something. ”

"Go yourself. ”

"Okay. A smile appeared on Chu Ge's face, "Then the hot pot at night, I ate it with Wang Yingjun." ”

"You dare!" Chu Xiaowu suddenly turned his head, revealing murderous eyes.

Chu Xiaowu had a dream last night, but she couldn't remember what she dreamed about, and she felt dizzy when she got up. And she lost the game when she got up in the morning, and her heart was on fire.

But when she heard that there was a hot pot to eat at night, the dissatisfaction in her heart gradually decreased.

There is no trouble that can't be solved with one hot pot, if it doesn't work, just have two!

So the brother and sister ate a little casually outside at noon and went to the supermarket to buy it.

hairy tripe, shutters, duck blood, shrimp slippery, fish balls, mushrooms, chrysanthemum, lettuce, kelp, bean curd, vermicelli......

After an afternoon of shopping, Chu Ge and the others walked towards home with large bags and small bags. Of course, the person carrying the bag is mainly Chu Ge.

When Chu Ge and the others came to the corridor, they found that there was a person standing sneakily at the door of their house.

It was a fat man in a sweatshirt, he was wearing a white T-shirt, a gray sports coat, and a black sports cap on his head.

He was carrying a large bag of things in his hand, probing his brain, as if he was waiting for someone.

"Chubby?" Chu Ge asked.

"Chu Ge!" Wang Yingjun looked back and smiled,

"Chubby, I haven't seen you for a long time, you seem to be fat again. Chu Xiaowu said.

"Really, I've been serious about losing weight lately!" Wang Yingjun's face showed a very serious expression.

Although Wang Yingjun looks a little fat, his facial features are upright, and there is a hint of handsomeness between his eyebrows, otherwise he would not be narcissistic, and his game nickname is handsome and chic.

People do have this capital, Chu Ge thinks that if this guy can lose 10 pounds, he is definitely a handsome guy!

"Don't stand outside, let's go inside. ”

At dinner time, the three of them sit together, and in the center of the table is a hot pot with a variety of ingredients around.

The red liquid in the pot is rich tomato juice, and you can see onions, shiitake mushrooms, shrimp and tender chicken thighs in the tomato juice.

It's a delicious tomato chicken soup hot pot.

"Cheers!"

The three of them raised the ice coke in their hands and clinked glasses, and Chu Ge couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, our life is like a hot pot." ”

"Why do you say that?" asked Chubby.

"You think. Chu Ge replied.

"There are all kinds of dishes in the hot pot, some like and some don't like. Just like our life, we will meet all kinds of people in this life, some like and some don't. ”

"Yes, it's like life is full of accidents, and you never know if you can successfully fish out the ingredients you put down. Chubby agreed.

"Can you two big men be less hypocritical?" Chu Xiaowu had been burying her head in eating meat, and she couldn't help but complain.

Chu Ge glanced at her with a disgusted expression, "Don't just eat meat, eat more vegetables, and leave some for the two of us!"

In just this moment, Chu Xiaowu had already finished eating a plate of meat, but Chu Ge and Xiaopang had not moved their chopsticks yet.

"Hmph, only those who strike first can dominate the hot pot, this is the true meaning of the hot pot general!" Chu Xiaowu said disdainfully.

"You've seen too much Gintama, hey!"

Chu Ge also joined the battle for hot pot, but he found that Wang Yingjun did not eat meat, but had been eating vegetables.

"Chubby, why don't you eat meat?"

"Isn't this losing weight recently?" Chubby's expression was helpless, "What do you think, what does this tomato and chicken soup hot pot taste like?" I'll give back to my dad when I go back." ”

"Not bad. Chu Xiaowu served another bowl of soup, "The soup has a strong flavor of eggplant, the chicken is also very delicious, and the combination of shrimp and shiitake mushrooms adds a lot of color." ”

"Speaking of tomatoes, do you want to listen to a joke about tomatoes?" Chu Ge took the opportunity to say.

"I don't want to hear it!" Chu Xiaowu and Wang Yingjun shouted in unison.

"Cut. Chu Ge, who didn't succeed, pouted, "You guys are really boring." ”

Xiaopang took a sip of soup and asked, "By the way, Chu Ge, how many levels did you reach yesterday?"

"Level 5. ”

", you hang up!" Wang Yingjun's mouth almost squirted out of the soup.

You know, there are a lot of people in the nightmare game now who haven't even been a novice, and there are very few people in LV3, and this guy is already LV5!

"Hehe, brother is a person favored by Lady Luck!"

"I've heard that it's hard to get the next murderous house. Chubby sighed.

"It's okay, I'll tell you the strategy first. ”

Xiaopang nodded, he looked at Chu Xiaowu, who was trying to gnaw on the chicken legs, and said, "Xiaowu, do you want to play together, this game is very interesting." ”

"Can this game draw a sword to summon a dragon?"

"No, you can't. ”

"Can this game be played to resurrect teammates?"

"No, you can't. ”

"Can this game kill an enemy who hammers into a wall with one punch?"

"Nor can it be ......"

"Then why should I play?" Chu Xiaowu rolled her eyes.

Chubby: "......"

"Alright, this guy has been holding a lot of grudges against Iron Fist lately. Chu Ge smiled and said.

Chu Xiaowu sighed, the chopsticks in her hand kept poking at the table, and she said angrily: "Hey...... It's 2025, why hasn't Iron Fist deleted ......"

Happy time always flies quickly, and after dinner, Wang Yingjun is going home.

Chu Ge sent Wang Yingjun to the door, "Chubby, let's try that sleep mode tonight, shall we?"

"Okay, Chu Ge, I'll go first, I'll see you in the game later!" Fat waved at him.

Chu Ge looked at Wang Yingjun's back and waved at him.

He and Xiaopang have known each other for more than ten years, and Wang Yingjun has been following him when he was a child, but he didn't expect that after so many years, their friendship has not changed.

We can have many friends, but few close friends.

Just like the ingredients in a hot pot, there are a lot of them that go down, but very few of them are caught...

He hopes that this happiness in their hearts will never change.

But when he came home and saw the pots, bowls and plates full of the pool, he felt like he couldn't be happy again.

"Chu Xiaowu, come and help me wash the dishes. Chu Gechao was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and Chu Xiaowu said.

"Hah...... I'm sleepy. ”

Chu Xiaowu pretended to yawn, she got up and walked towards her bedroom, "You brush slowly, I'll go to sleep first." ”

Chu Ge: "......"
