Chapter 111: Happy Box

Previous Chapter

"Happy Box" is such a nice name, Jingzhi thought to herself. She picked up her chopsticks and ate them with relish.

Florence walked over to say hello. She had changed into her overalls and was wearing a dark brown coat with a light brown turtleneck sweater underneath. Judging from this "airtight" dress, she is also a person who is very afraid of the cold.

“What do you make of the Happy Box?” (What do you think of that Happy Box?) )

“I don’t know why, but hohe more I eat, the happier I am. Is there any magi that?” (I don't know why, but honestly, the more I eat, the happier I feel.) Is there some magic there? )

"Ha...... (Ha...... Florence laughed, "I like that ent." (I love that compliment.) )

“Thanks.” (Thank you.) )

Florence glanced at her watch with a look of panic.

“I must be off. The rehearsal starts in half an hour.” (I have to go.) Rehearsals are still half an hour away. )

“Have a great time in your rehearsal room!” (Have fun in the rehearsal room!) )

“Thank you. Enj here!” (Thank you.) Enjoy it here! )

“Thank you. I will.” (Thank you.) I will. )

“Goodbye, then.” (Goodbye then.) )

“Bye!” (See you soon!) )

Gradually, the guests who had come to eat at noon left one after another, and only a middle-aged woman with her hair scattered was still sitting there. Next to her was a little boy of about two or three years old. The child sat on a plain wooden seat for babies and toddlers, with a snow-white napkin around his neck. Mom had just spooned her a mouthful of fruit salad, and he was slowly chewing the food in his mouth. His expression was calm, and he didn't seem to want to cry in the slightest, and it seemed that he was slowly savoring, like a gourmand appreciating good food.

Su Yi walked over and wanted to take away the empty food box in front of Jingzhi, muttering, "How is it, how are you eating?" ”

"Well, that's great!" Jingzhi exclaimed, "It's a hundred times better than what is sold in the school cafeteria!" ”

"That's good......" Su Yiwan smiled.

"Sister Suyi, today I plan to have afternoon tea here."

"Okay, I'll take the food box away first, and I'll bring you the menu later, okay?"

"Thank you, Sister Sue."

Su Yi's pace was not fast, and by the time she brought the menu, Jingzhi had already opened a book at hand and read it intently.

Seeing Jingzhi's attentive appearance, Su Yi couldn't bear to disturb, so he quietly put the afternoon tea menu in the corner of the table.

Almost an hour has passed, Jingzhi has not raised her head to look at the menu on the table, her appearance of hard reading is impressive. The Roman numerals, Greek letters, and English letters printed on the book were like black snowflakes flying in the sky, reflecting on Jingzhi's pupils and flying into her mind.

The number of guests in Ruyiju gradually increased, and most of them were married wives, and people of all colors appeared. They are fashionably dressed and elegant, sitting together, drinking tea and chatting, very comfortable.

Sue is busy? Looking at Jingzhi from time to time? Let's see if she orders something.

Half an hour passed, and Su Yi couldn't help it, so she poured a cup of hot water from the cup of coffee? Put it in front of Jingzhi, thinking? If she feels thirsty, drink some water to moisten her throat? It's also good, but Jingzhi was thinking intently, not noticing that there was an extra coffee cup next to her, and she didn't feel a dry mouth.

Soon after, the water in the cup cooled down? Cold. Sue reluctantly poured out the cold water? Pour another cup of hot water over again. At this time, Jingzhi had already spread out her notebook, holding a pen in her hand, writing and drawing on paper.

Su Yi had no choice but to shake his head helplessly and walk away.

I don't know when? It's snowing outside. Snowflakes dance proudly in mid-air, sticking to the glass next to Jingzhi? reluctant to fall to the ground.

After a while, a dark figure walked over, took the cold water on the table, and replaced it with two glasses full of drinks. He stood beside Jingzhi, frowned, picked up a book from the table casually, opened it and read it for a while, pushed away the chair opposite Jingzhi, and sat down opposite her.

Jingzhi had been busy taking notes, and she didn't notice the extra pair of hands on the dining table at all. The hands were now holding an old book she had just borrowed, and the owner of the hand was reading it with great energy.

The light music in Ruyi Curie lingered, and the guests were in a good mood, talking and laughing, and the night fell quietly. Jingzhi was still sitting in place, writing on her desk.

The dark shadow opposite Jingzhi has always been very quiet, and even when turning the book, it is very cautious and does not make the slightest sound.

It didn't take long for Jingzhi's thoughts to finally stop, as if she had accomplished something important, she raised her head, exhaled deeply, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

"What, it's finally done?"

The black shadow opposite Jingzhi moved his lips and said casually. At this time, he was in the middle of reading, and suddenly stopped, still unfinished.

"yes, that's a lot of work." Jingzhi lamented, "But now I finally understand how the theories mentioned in this book can 'add lustre' to what I have written." Ah, I can finally sleep peacefully tonight. Jingzhi pressed the corners of her forehead with her two hands and sighed, "Otherwise, I must be so nervous that I can't sleep, I guess I'm even dreaming of reading." ”

"Hey, it sounds like you have gained a lot today, it must be because Ruyi lives here with good feng shui, and here, you have solved the difficult problem at once. If you think about it, isn't it amazing that something that can be done by a person in the office for days can be done here in one fell swoop? ”

"Well, you have a point." Jingzhi nodded very affirmatively, "Happy Box, there's magic in there, you can become smart if you eat it." ”

"Really?" The dark shadow was skeptical, "I'll try it next time to see how amazing this magic is." Happy Box, do you like it? ”

"I love it." Jingzhi replied in the affirmative.

"That's good, as long as you like it."

Jingzhi suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "I'm going to have afternoon tea here." Sister Su Yi helped me get the menu just now. ”

"The menu for afternoon tea," said the dark shadow as he handed over the menu on the table, "You want this menu?" ”

Jingzhi took the menu, looked at it a few times, nodded and said, "Yes, it's this menu." ”

Jingzhi read the menu carefully, and didn't know which one to choose, so she raised her head and asked embarrassedly: "The first time I stayed here in the afternoon, there are so many set menus, I don't know which one to choose." Can you recommend one for me? ”

The black shadow took the menu from Jingzhi's hand, shook his head helplessly, and said in a very regretful tone: "The things on this menu are all very good, but unfortunately, it is past tea time now; By this time, what was on this menu was no longer available. Look outside, it's already dark. ”

"Tea time is over?" Jingzhi rubbed her eyes, looked out the window, and then lowered her head sharply, and glanced at her watch, it was almost seven o'clock in the evening. She looked around in a panic, and the tables were filled with dishes for dinner, and there were no refreshments.

The black shadow asked curiously: "You are a little strange today, I only saw you here at night before, why, you are dressed so formally, you came here at noon, and you have been sitting here all afternoon." ”

"I," Jingzhi smiled shyly, "I read here just like in the office, as long as I have a chair, a table, and a pen and paper, it's very convenient." ”

"That's true, but I'm just curious why you don't go back to the office, or go to the library, and read here."

"Because I'm waiting for someone!" Jingzhi laughed shyly.

"Wait for someone? When did that man come here? A friend of yours? Would I like to have dinner with you? ”

The questions asked by the black shadow out of curiosity were like a surging river, endless.

"I don't know when he came here, but he happens to be sitting across from me right now; I don't know if he's a friend of mine, and I don't know if he'll have dinner with me. ”

Jingzhi's answer was perfect, and the black shadow did not show weakness.

"Well, let me tell you, I got here by car at five minutes and six o'clock; Of course I'd like to be friends with you if you want, and it's my pleasure to have dinner with you. ”

Jason is wearing a dark blue shirt today and a tie that is also dark blue with white checkered stripes; He was wearing a black watch on his hand, it was cold outside, and when he entered the door, the dial was covered with a layer of mist, and now there were a few droplets smaller than sesame seeds on the edge of the dial; His face was much thinner than before, and his skin was a little less shiny, but much paler, and he looked tired; But his gaze is still sharp, and when he reads, his gaze is concentrated in one place, like lightning, and he can see everything.

Jason tugged at the tie violently, loosening the knot at the neckline a bit, trying to breathe a sigh of relief. It was as if he had just participated in some battle, and he won the thrilling and narrowly won.

Jingzhi looked very relaxed and calmly closed the notebook.

"Here, let's have a drink," Jason pushed a glass toward Jingzhi.

It's rare for Jason to speak so softly, as if coaxing a naughty child to drink her most hated bitter medicine.

Jingzhi picked up the cup, because she had written too much just now, her wrist was sore, but her heart was as sweet as if she had been watered with honey. I guessed right, he'll still come. As long as I wait patiently here, he will always show up, but I didn't expect happiness to come so quickly, what a good day today, it's really a happy event! Thinking of this, Jingzhi couldn't help but laugh.

"You're pretty energetic," Jason said, gulping down the half of the drink he had at hand, "I'm so hungry and don't have any energy ......at all."

After speaking, he made a look like he was about to faint, which frightened Jingzhi. She immediately stood up, ran to the bar, took a menu, brought it to Jason, and said, "You, you order, eat something, otherwise it will be easy for you to faint with low blood sugar." ”

Seeing Jingzhi's panicked appearance, Jason really couldn't cry or laugh, he never expected that his unintentional joke would make Jingzhi worry like this.

Jason stood up, holding the menu with one hand, and gently patting Jingzhi's neatly coiled hair twice with the other, bending over, leaning into her ear, and said earnestly: "You, you are so simple, you believe what others say." How can I be so fragile that I don't eat a few meals, and I won't faint from hunger. ”

Jingzhi stood stupidly in place, when Jason touched her bun just now, she seemed to have been struck by lightning, her heart was beating violently, her internal organs were churning, her fingertips trembled slightly, and she couldn't help it.

Seeing that Jingzhi's body was restrained and in a trance, Jason stood there in a daze, so he asked in a concerned tone, "I see that your face is not very good, are you hungry?" ”

Jingzhi didn't hear what he said, she only felt a buzzing in her head, and she couldn't hear anything.

"I can't help it." As he spoke, Jason took the menu in his hand, flipped through the pages and asked her what she wanted to eat.

"This? This one? This ......" Jason flipped through the menu from beginning to end, but Jingzhi was unmoved, neither nodding nor shaking her head, like a wooden man.

"Well......" Jason sighed, "I can't help you." ”

He grabbed Jingzhi's arm, pressed her to the chair and sat down, and told her, "You wait here, I'll be back soon." ”

With that, he took the menu and strode away.
