073 Hongmen Banquet

At noon, the blazing sun unreservedly casts its light and heat onto the earth, and the flowers and trees exposed to the sun are sheathed.

Although the restaurant in the attached courtyard is crowded, it is very cool because the air conditioning is turned on.

Chu Yunchu, Liu Qian, and Wu Ming are queuing up to eat.

The melody of a song wafts softly in the dining room.

Chu Yunchuan whistled softly to the rhythm.

Liu Qian glanced at Chu Yunchu quietly: "You are in a good mood today." ”

Chu Yunchuan smiled happily: "Are you in a bad mood?" ”

Liu Qian looked at him suspiciously: "Where did you go last night?" ”

"Gathering with friends."

"Who?"

"Jiuling, Yunxia and Ruyi."

"Ruyi is here too? When did she and Wang Hao get married? Is the time set? ”

"They won't get married for a while."

"Didn't you say that Wang Hao had waited for her for many years and planned to get married as soon as she graduated?"

Wang Hao...... Anyway, it's impossible for them to get married at the moment. ”

"Why?"

"There's always a reason." Chu Yunchuan looked at Liu Qian with a smile, "Why do you suddenly care so much about others?" ”

"No, your good friend, just ask."

After eating, Liu Qian took Chu Yunchuan's arm and walked out of the restaurant: "My house has been renovated, and I want to treat you." ”

"Okay."

"Then invite Jiuling and them to come together, you are colleagues now, and you often play together."

"Invite whoever you want."

"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, it's better to invite it today!"

"Whatever."

Liu Qian instigated: "Call quickly." ”

"I'm fighting?"

"Can't you?"

Chu Yunchuan took out the phone a little reluctantly: "Who to call first?" ”

"Jade Ruyi."

Chu Yunchuan closed the phone: "She said that she was going back to work today." ”

"Ask again!" Liu Qian shook Chu Yunchuan's arm.

"No, you're not very close to her."

"You're close to her."

Seeing Chu Yunchuan looking at her inquiringly, Liu Qian explained with a smile: "Isn't Wang Hao your best friend?" Now that someone's girlfriend is coming to us, it's also appropriate to entertain others, just to return the favor - the last time I went to the countryside to play, they were so kind to us! ”

As soon as Chu Yunchuan dialed the phone, Liu Qian grabbed it: "Ruyi, I'm Liu Qian, Teacher Chu and I invite you, Yunxia, and Jiuling to come to our house tonight to play...... It's nothing, it's just that my house has just been renovated and I want to invite some friends to gather for popularity...... Just because you're at work now, it's not easy to go to the city, so why don't you take an extra day off...... You must come, Teacher Chu and I are ready...... Okay, let's say yes. ”

Liu Qian's house is on the eighteenth floor of a community.

"I heard that this is the wedding house that her family bought for her." Standing in the elevator, Yuan Yunxia said to Yu Ruyi mysteriously.

"Married? Dizziness is! Zhang Jiuling disagreed, "Teacher Chu doesn't like her very much, and maybe she won't get married!" ”

"Hey, don't talk nonsense!" Yu Ruyi warned Zhang Jiuling, "No matter how you say that Teacher Liu is also Teacher Chu's girlfriend, we have to respect her." ”

"Although she is beautiful and capable." Yuan Yunxia turned her head: "Somehow, I just don't like her very much." ”

"What's the matter with us? As long as Teacher Chu likes her, it's fine. Yu Ruyi pulled Yuan Yunxia and walked out of the elevator.

Ringing the doorbell, Liu Qian, who was wearing an apron, opened the door enthusiastically and bent down to them playfully: "Welcome!" ”

Chu Yunchuan had already arrived first, and he was playing games with Wu Ming in the living room. Seeing them enter, Chu Yunchuan looked over: "Jiuling, come on, Wu Ming's skills are too poor!" ”

Yu Ruyi and Yuan Yunxia followed Liu Qian into the kitchen: "Do you want us to help?" ”

In the kitchen, a young woman with short hair looked at them critically: "Fry the steak, will you?" ”

Yu Ruyi smiled and said, "We can learn." ”

"You're my honored guest, how can I make you do this?" Liu Qian stopped Yu Ruyi and introduced, "This is Xiaohe, Wu Ming's wife, Ruyi, Yunxia, and Chu Yunchuan's friends." ”

"Mr. Wu's lover?" Yu Ruyi politely bent over to Xiaohe, "Hello! ”

Little Lotus smiled and owed a debt.

"You two go take a break, there's fruit in the living room." Liu Qian smiled and said to Yu Ruyi and Yuan Yunxia, "We'll be fine right away." ”

Yuan Yunxia took Yu Ruyi around to visit Liu Qian's new house.

It's a compact two bedroom unit and it's been tastefully renovated.

Walking to the balcony, Yuan Yunxia whispered to Yu Ruyi: "It feels a little weird. ”

Yu Ruyi said hesitantly: "I also think something is wrong, maybe Mr. Wu's wife is not familiar with us, so she is a little rushed to speak, right?" ”

In the kitchen, Liu Qian and Xiaohe were secretly watching Chu Yunchuan's every move.

Seeing that the corners of Chu Yunchuan's eyes were really following the figures of Yu Ruyi and Yuan Yunxia, Xiao He frowned: "Which one is suspicious?" ”

"The tall one, Jade Ruyi. In the past, when he was interning in his hands, he took special care of others, and I thought it was really for the sake of the other party's boyfriend. But after all this time, every time he mentioned that girl, his eyes were still soβ€”it was so gentle! ”

"Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief! How did the girl react? ”

"The girl is stupid and doesn't know anything."

"That's good!" Xiaohe agreed and said, "It's right for you to be vigilant, this kind of sign must be pinched off as soon as it is discovered, and you must not give those stinky men any thoughts!" ”

After sitting down around the dinner table, Liu Qian suddenly said apologetically: "Oops, the wine is still in the refrigerator, Ruyi, the refrigerator is behind you, please help me bring it over." ”

Yu Ruyi opened the refrigerator and walked over with the bottle of wine placed on the outside.

"Oops, how do you take this?" Xiaohe fussed and said, "This is white wine!" Don't you know that steak is to be paired with red wine? ”

Yu Ruyi's face flushed: "I'm sorry." ”

"Why do you pay so much attention! It's not a state banquet. Chu Yunchuan beckoned to Yu Ruyi, "Come and sit down, let them get it themselves!" ”

Liu Qian and Xiaohe exchanged glances, and hurriedly smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll go get it." ”

Zhang Jiuling cut the steak: "Wow, it's only five ripe." ”

Liu Qian asked Zhang Jiuling with concern: "Do you want me to cook you again?" ”

"No, I don't. My brother also likes to eat three ripe, hot on the outside and cold on the inside, it's just two days of ice and fire. ”

Xiaohe pretended to be concerned and asked Yu Ruyi: "How many ripe do you like to eat?" ”

Yu Ruyi smiled: "Whateverβ€”there are no special requirements." ”

"It's not clear what maturity it is, right?" Xiaohe said in a joking tone, "I'm sorry, I forgot that it's hard for you to eat steak in the country." ”

Yu Ruyi's smile was a little stiff.

Xiaohe pretended not to see Yu Ruyi's expression: "The current businessmen are very sophisticated, and they know that the countryside people can't afford to spend, and the slightly more high-end shops don't open in the countryside." ”

"Perhaps." Yuan Yunxia immediately took over Xiaohe's words, "I always don't understand: what do those foreigners who invented steak think?" These proteins are well cooked and eaten badly, why do you want to make a half-baked one, how difficult it is to digest. ”

Everyone at the table laughed.

Yu Ruyi glanced at Yuan Yunxia gratefully.

Zhang Jiuling teased: "Maybe it's because they have evolved slower, and they are still at the stage of drinking Mao Ru's blood." ”

"It's because of different lifestyles." Xiaohe seriously defended, "Different people have different concepts of life, just like Liu Qian, she and Chu Yunchuan are people of the same level, and they are very consistent in all aspects. Uh, Liu Qian. Xiaohe quipped, "You two should have a glass of wine!" ”

Liu Qian glanced at Chu Yunchuan, saw that Chu Yunchuan was indifferent, and said thoughtfully, "Love is the deep understanding and sympathy of the heart, how can you care about the outside world." ”

After the meal, Yu Ruyi and Yuan Yunxia politely helped Liu Qian put the plates and bowls into the kitchen.

Xiaohe fussed and asked, "Oh, you guys are so good, you still have to help Liu Qian wash the dishes?" ”

"Just leave it here, I'll wash it later." Liu Qian walked out of the kitchen with a smile, "I'll go and prepare some after-dinner fruit for you first." ”

"There are so many of us, why do we need you to wash the dishes!" Xiaohe said as she began to clean up the stove.

Yu Ruyi and Yuan Yunxia had no choice but to start washing the dishes.

Xiaohe pretended to apologize to Yu Ruyi: "I'm sorry, I'm very straight, you won't be careful, right?" ”

Yu Ruyi smiled: "It's okay." ”

"I don't think you mind, because we're all friends, and friends are supposed to be open and honest with each other, aren't they?"

"Yes."

"Ugh!" Xiaohe pretended to be very affectionate and touched Yu Ruyi with her elbow, "What do you think of Liu Qian?" ”

Yu Ruyi replied casually: "Very good." ”

"What about Chu Yunchuan?"

"That's fine."

"Then do you like him?"

"Huh?"

Xiaohe hurriedly explained: "I don't mean anything else, I just think this Chu Yunchuan is very ordinary, I can't figure out why Liu Qian loves him so much?" So just ask. ”

Yu Ruyi replied honestly: "Teacher Chu is very good. ”

"Suppose, I said suppose, suppose you don't have a boyfriend, would you choose someone like Chu Yunchuan as your boyfriend?"

It turned out to be for this! Yu Ruyi was amused by Xiaohe's thoughtfulness. In order to reassure them, Yu Ruyi replied cheerfully: "No!" ”

"Why?" Xiaohe pressed step by step.

Why? Also asked why! Yu Ruyi looked at Yuan Yunxia for help, Yuan Yunxia's face was tense, and her anger seemed to be about to explode.

Yu Ruyi suddenly felt funny, and after thinking about it, she really couldn't think of anything bad about Chu Yunchuan for a while, but she just felt that Chu Yunchuan looked like an injured child who needed to be taken care of when she sang last night, so she smiled and said, "He's too young." ”

"Too small? He's almost thirty years old, still young? Do you mean he's too short? ”

"Short?" Ruyi said, "It's almost one meter eight, why do you think he's short?" ”

Seeing Xiaohe and Liu Qian at a loss, Yu Ruyi smiled and took Yuan Yunxia's hand and walked out of the kitchen.
