Looking at the contract in Li Shi's hand, I was a little nervous, this nervousness has a reason, if it is a simple contract, there is no need for her to do it rashly.

I reached out and took the contract, and as soon as I glanced at it, anger filled my body, and I squeaked my fist, unable to say a word, and the contract was clearly aimed at me: if I wanted the hostel to continue operating for the next two months, then the only requirement was for me to leave Youtu.

"Two months from now?"

"The traditional tourist season in this area is coming, and if you sign a contract to cooperate with the company's business, you can operate for another two months, but after two months, no one can guarantee ......"

"Don't you think you're going too far?"

Li Shi replied unmoved: "If you want to blame, you can only blame you for being too talented." ”

What does this have to do with my talent, it is unbelievable that I was speechless for a while, looking at Li Shi's face full of threatened expressions, could it be that my existence threatens her promotion?

"I can sign it, but you're going to tell me why I'm doing it."

Li Shi and I looked at each other, still with an indifferent expression, but I couldn't understand what was hidden under her expression.

Seeing that Li Shi didn't answer, I stared at her for a long time, took the pen from her hand as if resigned, quickly signed the terms, and said, "Now you can rest assured, right?" ”

Li Shi took the contract and looked at it, and said without seeing joy and anger: "Since the words have been signed, there is no need to say it, so be it!" ”

I pulled her away, but unexpectedly, Li Shi, who was still cold-faced for a second, suddenly smiled gratefully, but my scalp was numb for a while, and I was no longer able to entangle, after coming back to my senses a little, I suddenly remembered something, and said in a consultative tone as much as possible: "Can you reserve room 710 on July 10th, Jingqi wants to use it." ”

"Yes!"

"Please don't tell my parents about this."

"I know, is there anything else to explain?"

"Nope."

……

Back in my room, I sat in a state of distraction for a long time, from the afternoon to the evening, the work had not yet been completed, and once I left the house, I was afraid that the dilemma of having nowhere to go would haunt me for a short time.

In my distraction, I looked out the window again, as if I saw all the darkness before the night, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: in fact, most of the time, your loyalty only touches yourself, others don't actually know it, and you don't want others to feel it......

As night approached, Li Shi turned on all the lights in the yard, as if she intended to let me take a good look at the grass and trees here.

In the huge room, I was still alone, opened the window, the warm breeze of the night with a trace of inexplicable melancholy, blew in from the open window, just like my mood, and sat dry for a while, then I had a feeling of hunger, I sorted out my emotions, ready to eat something.

opened the door, just walked out, eyes unconsciously focused on the door of a figure to come, her figure is so good, walking posture is more soft and smart, a moment later appeared in the light, at this moment she is wearing an apron, a light blue silk scarf on her head, like a cooking dress.

"Are you awake?"

"I didn't sleep at all."

Li Shi walked into the kitchen, and while he was busy, he said casually: "It's normal to not be able to sleep, and it's called heartless when you fall asleep." ”

I was a little speechless, she always choked me half to death so calmly, and paused for a while before saying, "Buying so many vegetables, is this going to celebrate?" Or are you going to practice it for me? ”

Li Shi surprised me a little, and didn't fight back at me, but just smiled at me and said, "Whether it's celebration or practice, you have to eat." ”

In the past two days, I have inexplicably looked down on a lot of things, and I don't want to quarrel with her, so I don't care if I am disgusted or not with her smile after victory, anyway, the image of my poor character has been preconceived and engraved into her heart, no matter how much I toss, I'm afraid I can't change anything, just leave and be okay!

I stood aside, looking at her clumsy appearance, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to make a name for myself after tossing all night, so I took the initiative to classify the ingredients, and then asked her to give me a hand, after all, I still have to eat this meal.

I fried shredded potatoes, boiled a fish, braised pork and winter melon pork ribs were still stewed in the pot, and in less than an hour, I basically finished the dish, just waiting for the braised pork and pork ribs to cook before cooking.

During the waiting period, the slightly hot kitchen made me unable to stay, so I took out the beer that had been chilled in advance, and drank it with Li Shi one by one.

Li Shi only opened the beer can, but did not take a sip, went back to the house and poured himself a glass of warm water, fortunately I have long been used to drinking alone, but I do not feel lonely.

I sat quietly, looking at everything around me, and suddenly felt that the hostel had begun to fall at some point, there was no prosperity, no liveliness, a desolate and desolate area, spreading the atmosphere of decadence and despair.

I don't know how long I was stunned, Li Shi served all the dishes on the table, she took the initiative to serve me a bowl of pork rib soup, and reminded: "Don't drink beer, drink some pork rib soup!" ”

"Why is it so good to me?"

"Weak-hearted."

I looked at Li Shi in surprise, and bit the topic: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Don't ask, have a good meal."

I put down my chopsticks and continued to pick up my beer.

"You don't have to worry with me, after all, this meal is made by yourself, whether you eat it or not depends on your own mood!"

"Miss Li, do you know what the biggest feeling I have had since I been in contact with you these days?"

"Don't call me that, I'm not used to it."

She didn't notice the point of my words, so I asked myself as if I was asking, "My biggest feeling is: I really don't know what kind of emotions to treat you." ”

Li Shi took back the chopsticks that were ready to pick up the dishes, didn't eat by herself, and didn't get tired of my stalking like before, and said to me patiently: "Yu Hang, we are all strangers who met in Pingshui, aren't we?" I'm not going to stay here for long, so I don't want people to hate me, and I don't want anyone to think of me as good, and every time I do this to you, my own conscience is condemned, although sometimes you are a real asshole......"

Li Shi's words were like a needle piercing the softest and most painful part of my heart, a paralyzing and suffocating pain, I suddenly broke out in a sweat, and after pouring myself a sip of beer, I had a feeling of difficulty breathing.

"Why do I think your existence is a conspiracy?"

Li Shi smiled faintly and said: "Now is a society ruled by law in the 21st century, and 007 will not be staged in your life." ”

I picked up the chopsticks again and said to myself in the night: "Fortunately, society can still guarantee my safety, if you are really a female agent, I will only have to wait for death, I have always thought that I am a thorn, no one can do anything about me, but I was solved by you in a few clicks, and now I am not ready to get out." ”

Li Shi looked at me with her chin propped up, but suddenly remembered something and asked, "I remember that you said that there are some very good ideas, but they have not been implemented because of lack of funds, can you tell me about them?" ”

I looked at Li Shi, the expectation on her face was real, more like an owner eager to renovate her home, but she clearly said in the afternoon that she only planned to let the hostel open for another two months or so......

"This is a store that has lost so much that there is no tomorrow, so why invest in it again?"

I miscalculated this woman again, she looked at me, neither sure nor negative, and asked for a long time: "Is there a tomorrow that I can't control, but at least there is today, are you right?" ”

This sentence made me have a strange feeling in my heart, for a long time, as if to produce a kind of power, and finally straightened out my emotions and said to her: "Xi'an has always been a city with a heavy label, and this youth hostel, more like a microcosm of the fusion of tradition and modernity, I once thought that when the business in the store is booming again, I will build an earthen stove in the yard, where many people can cook food, the wind will blow the smoke from the old house, the smell permeates the entire yard, I plan to build a swing frame in the northeast corner of the house, In the summer, the creeper covers the entire wall, and in the autumn the leaves of the ginkgo tree outside the house are just enough to cover the whole corner, and I also want to raise a cat, watch it nap, and want to pull a few wires under the shed overhead, so that every customer who has come here can hang a sign that can be written, and when I come again next time, I can also take a look at the mood and wishes written last time, perhaps, when he (she) comes again, this period of time is short or long, but in those times that can not be returned, remember a certain day of that year, It's also a new experience......"

Li Shi quickly ran to the room, picked up his sketchbook, and quickly drew my thoughts on paper, to be honest, I had no organized language, even I could hardly think of specific scenes, but Li Shi seemed to be very focused, very serious about my thoughts.

"Am I making it clear?"

After asking, I waited anxiously for an answer, but she just said "um" softly, but her hand didn't stop, and the whole yard seemed to be filled with only the sound of pencils and paper rubbing.

After a while, Li Shi stretched out the sketchbook in front of me and asked a little unconfidently, "Is that so?" ”

From the first time I saw her painting, I knew that she was superb, in just 20 minutes, she quickly showed the scenery I said, I stared at the painting for a long time, as if I felt: it was a sunny autumn afternoon, I leaned on the newly built bench of the hostel, wearing dry cotton socks on my feet, a blanket on my body, holding an open idle book in my hand, on the small coffee table by the bench, Longjing tea in the glass, glowing with lovely yellow-green light and shadow in the sun...... Meng Meng tugged at my ears and called me to get up to play with her, but I was lazy and pretended to be asleep, so in such a warm afternoon, the fake show was really done, and I really fell asleep so lazily, so leisurely, lazy, and carefree......

Li Shi did not break this tranquility, picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat, she seemed to like to eat the braised fish I made, the other dishes almost did not move, I was difficult to completely come out of the picture, looked at Li Shi very sincerely, she seemed to sense something, but there was a hesitation on her face, and only after a while did she say to me: "If you plan to open your mouth to paint, then don't open your mouth, so as not to embarrass me." ”

My heart suddenly seemed to fall into the ice cellar, and it took a while to recover, and then said to her in a joking tone: "People say ugly things in front, you are ugly, you say it first, but I don't mind, good things can only be collected to show their value, you see I gave away all the hostels, you can't give me a painting, right?" ”

Li Shi ignored my jokes and said, "Don't embarrass me! ”
