Chapter 41: The Black-bellied Che Hao
PART3: Why can't you hear my sincerity?
โโโ he/she doesn't love me
On Friday morning, Yunshi walked out of the house, and the sky was drizzling.
She didn't go to the office, but went to Kaiwu's No. 1 restaurant according to Wang Min's instructions.
As soon as I pushed the door, I saw that Qi Zhi and Mimi were already sitting in front of the glass window, and she also sat down.
Mimi was holding a cup of hot milk tea in her hand, and she saw her eyebrows and eyes smiling.
"Sister Tang, are there any arrangements for this weekend?"
"No, it's just tidying up. I'm moving next week. โ
"Moving next week?" Mimi asked curiously, widening her eyes. "Where are you moving?"
"Near the company subway station." Yun Shi said as she hugged Qi Zhi's neck on the side, and said deliberately numbly. "We're going to have a home together."
"You're going to live together." Mimi looked envious. "Take me with you."
"Don't you live with your boyfriend?" Yun Shi asked rhetorically.
After Mimi broke up with Zou Kai, she moved out of the wedding room prepared by Zou Kai's family, and lived with Dawei a few months ago.
"No, I haven't lived with other girls since I graduated from college, so I miss it."
"What are you doing with us?" Qi Zhi spread his hands and teased. "Yunshi and I are both homeless sinners after a failed marriage."
Yun Shi laughed when she heard the word "sinner" and echoed. "We're really sinners."
Wang Min, Fa Ge and Wang Lei all arrived later. Everyone had a brief meeting with the three chefs who were going to participate in the TV show. Next, we started experimenting with their recipes. After several tosses, the next five feasible solutions were finally determined from more than 20 plans. Yunshi enthusiastically participated in the whole process and also took the opportunity to taste the food.
"Chef Zhang, you have a great idea, Thai chutney with instant noodle burger does taste better than mayonnaise." Yunshi gave a thumbs up and was full of praise.
On the other side, Fa Ge and Qi Zhi were helping another Chef Li knead instant noodle meatballs. Qi Zhi watched the golden meatballs come out of the pot, and immediately couldn't help but put which one in his mouth.
"How can I take pictures when you're all done!" On the side, Wang Min couldn't help but complain while holding the camera.
"Didn't Minister Mi say that food should be eaten while it is hot to feel the warmth?" Yun Shi couldn't help but mutter. She saw Wang Min glaring at her. Immediately changed his smiling face and put the food in his hand back on the plate. "Then you shoot first, and I'll eat it after it's done."
A few people ate and worked in the store until four o'clock in the afternoon. The new project is finally completed.
"That's all for today." Wang Min sorted out the information, got up and said to everyone. "I've already applied for field work with Minister Mi, so you don't have to go back to clock in today, so let's get off work directly."
The crowd cheered and packed up their things and left.
After saying goodbye to her colleague, Yun Shi saw that it was still early, so she wanted to go to the hair salon to get a haircut. She found out the address of the hair salon that Mimi had introduced before, and found that it was a street away from her location on the map on her mobile phone.
The rain had stopped, and there were more pedestrians on the streets. She also joined the flow of people.
Yun Shi walked unhurriedly, looking at the still gloomy sky, and her heart was a little gloomy.
After so many years, the scars of childhood are still in my heart. It makes her scared of the rain. Every time she hears the sound of raindrops hitting the water, she will think of her little self standing in the cold lake water on a rainy night and calling her mother.
She lowered her head and stepped over the wet tiles step by step, trying to contain those sad memories. Forcing myself to think of something easy and happy. For example, what is better to cook dinner in the evening.
Just as she was hesitating whether it was better to make beans and eggplants or potatoes and eggplants, a slightly hesitant voice suddenly came from behind her.
"Is Shishi you?"
Yun Shi was stunned by the voice, thinking that she was hallucinating. She turned around and saw a man standing in the middle of the road on the sidewalk three meters away.
He was wearing an iron-gray cropped jacket with a red plaid shirt underneath and dark blue jeans, and his legs were slender and straight, and Yun Shi was short-sighted and couldn't see his face clearly. But the shape was all too familiar to her.
She froze in place like an electric shock, and when she saw the person walking towards her, she didn't know how to react for a while, so she turned around and fled quickly.
Che Hao didn't expect her to be like this, and after being stunned for a few seconds, he quickly chased after her.
"Let's talk." He scurried beside her, trying to grab her but she quickly dodged away.
"We don't have much to talk about." Yun Shi stared ahead, her face indifferent.
"I emailed you two months ago, and you haven't replied to me." He ignored her rudeness and kept smiling.
"I didn't get your email."
"Really? I checked my mailbox two days ago and it showed that the other party had read it. โ
The rhyme is speechless. Settle down and get rid of his entanglement. She walked fast, and when she saw that she was about to reach the intersection, she realized that there were ten seconds left in the signal light, and tried to rush through it with all her might.
Cha Hao suddenly stopped. Looking at her back and shouting, "I found Bobo and Xiaoying, who have been separated from you for many years!" โ
Yun Shi, who heard the words, stopped suddenly, and her back stopped in place.
"Don't you want to see them?" Cha Hao continued. "I was supposed to meet them tonight."
He saw that she was moved, and slowly approached her.
Yun Shi didn't run this time, she turned to look at him in a daze.
"If you're free, come with me!"
"Tell me what time it is, where it is." She finally looked at him. "I'll go after I cut my hair."
"Do you want to cut your hair?" He glanced at her long hair draped behind her head and smiled naturally. "I'm fine, I might as well accompany you to the barbershop."
He saw Yun Shi staring at him, and his eyes were very wary and uneasy. Said with a relaxed expression. "Why, are you still afraid that I will kidnap you in broad daylight?"
"It's not." Yun Shi concealed her inner panic, and her voice was slow. "I think it's awkward for us to be alone like this."
"Come on, are you still haunted by what happened N years ago?" He laughed. "I just want to treat you as an old alumnus and chat and catch up with each other, that's all."
Yun Shi saw that he was sincere, and thought to herself that it would be too childish if she was still like this. So she pointed to the intersection in front of her and said. "The barbershop is just around the street in front, let's walk there."
Cha Hao nodded, and walked obediently beside her with his hands behind his back.
Entering the hair salon, he was also a very gentleman and helped Yunshi get her bag and coat, and then sat alone in the rest area to read the newspaper.
Yun Shi wanted to make a big wave, but when she thought that time was limited, someone was waiting. After washing your hair, sit in front of the mirror and say to the hairstylist, "Just fix the ends of my hair." โ
Che Hao, who was sitting not far from behind the mirror, seemed to know her well, and looked up and said to her, "We have plenty of time, you can do whatever you want." Don't worry about me. โ
Yun Shi listened and stuck to her original plan. The hairstylist brought the tools and smiled at her and complimented her. "You have long hair and a round face. A big roll is also more temperamental, cute and charming, very good. โ
She finished talking and started work quickly, rolled up, applied the potion, and then pushed her under the perm machine.
Che Hao saw that her hair was tied and she was sitting there like a puppet, so he took the initiative to sit down and chat with her. Most of the stories are about the interesting stories of junior high and high school, and Yun Shi is relaxed when she listens to him, and her vigilance against him is getting smaller and smaller.
Che Hao left halfway to answer the phone, and the two aunts around Yun Shi took the opportunity to talk to her and praised Che Hao.
"Girl, this is your boyfriend."
"Auntie is not, we're just friends."
"Don't waste such a good resource." The aunt in yellow hurriedly spoke.
Another aunt with dyed hair also chimed in: "Don't be like my niece, pick and choose, and the men will run away." โ
"We're really friends, we can't be a couple." Yun Shi corrected a little embarrassed.
"What is this, as long as the man is unmarried and the woman is not married, and they are not blood relatives, then they can be together."
"Now people of the same sex dare to confess their love generously, girl, what are you afraid of."
Yun Shi only felt that it was difficult to argue, so she had to smile and accept the enthusiasm of the aunts.
By the time she and Che Hao came out of the hair salon, it was already dark.
Cha Hao took Yun Shi to the place where he parked the car and picked up the car. Yun Shi sat in the passenger seat and watched him drive all the way north, not asking anything more but keeping an eye on the time.
"Are we going to be late?" She looked at the watch on the display, and it was past eight o'clock.
"It's okay." Cha Hao smiled at her. "There's still some way to go, so if you're hungry we can get out of the car and buy some snacks."
"I've eaten almost a day today." Yun Shi laughed to herself, shaking her head.
"So your appetite is still as good as it used to be."
"My name is pรกn."
"Isn't it pร ng?"
"That's a polyphonic word, you've forgotten all your Chinese after staying in England for so long." Yun Shi teased him.
"That's right, but I remember the meaning of the idiom." He graciously admitted. "It's called 'Laugh and grow fat' in English."
"Better than me, I've been in France for three years and my French still sucks."
"You went to France?" He had a look of sudden realization. "No wonder I can't find you again when I go back home."
"You won't go back to China this time to find me, will you?"
Che Hao saw that uneasiness flashed in her eyes again, and calmly replied, "You think too much." I came back because of the family business. โ
Yun Shi breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a lot.
"I don't know if Bobo and Xiaoying have changed much?" She looked at the street lamp outside the window, and thought about the time she spent together in those years.
"It's not much changed, it's still fast-talking, heartless."
Che Hao glanced at the rhyme that was lost in thought, and then asked, "I have something I want to ask for." โ
"Huh? What's up? Yunshi turned to look back at him.
"Xiaoying said that you once had a crush on me."
"Haha, who hasn't had a crush in adolescence." Yun Shi pretended to be cool, and pretended to be calm. "I've been liking you for a few days, and I've been looking at the class leader next door again."
"Y-huh?" He pulled the two words and raised the corners of his mouth at her. "Bobo also told me that you had a crush on me for at least four years."
Yun Shi wailed in her heart, she was careless in making friends.
She laughed more and more embarrassedly, thinking about what to say. But suddenly I realized that the scenery outside the window became a little strange.
By the time she figured out where they were, it was too late.
"Cha Hao! Where are you taking me?! She immediately turned to stare at Che Hao and said angrily. Aren't you going to eat? Why are we on the highway! โ
