The next morning, Cheng Yi was awakened by a violent knock on the door. Sleepy-eyed, he lifted the quilt and put on his slippers in the haze and came to the door.

He opened the door and was greeted by He Xi's magnified face. He Xi was carrying a lunch box in his hand, and before Cheng Yi could react, he rushed into the house first.

He Xi put the lunch box on the table and said, "This is the noodles that my mother got up early in the morning to make, come and taste them." ”

Cheng Yi stood at the door, hesitated for a moment, and finally came to the dining table, looking at the bowl of hot noodles on the table, he instantly had an appetite. He just thought that he would eat casually for breakfast and lunch today, and go out to eat hot pot with Jiang Heng in the evening.

Cheng Yi sat down, put down his chopsticks after eating two bites casually, and said to He Xi very seriously: "Thank you for the past two days, and Aunt Xing." He was really grateful to Aunt Xing for taking care of him during this time, and at the beginning he was still a little uncomfortable when he came to this unfamiliar environment.

He lives here alone, and no one chats with him when he is bored, and when he is homesick at night, he will secretly cry like everyone else, and he is the only one to support him when he is sick before, and his parents always use busyness as an excuse to take a break, and the number of times he comes to Nanju is only a handful.

It wasn't until he was in the second year of junior high school that his mother came to Nanju, got acquainted with Aunt Xing, and asked Aunt Xing to take care of him more in life.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yi couldn't help but take two mouthfuls of noodles.

"I'm not called "these two days", my name is He Xi. He Xi tilted his head and kept giggling on the side.

Cheng Yi looked at her like he was looking at an idiot: "He Xi, are you a pig?" Cheng Yi swears that he has never met someone as stupid as He Xi!

"I'm just kidding." He Xi came to the sofa and sat down, took out a comic book, she was almost bored to death when she stayed here yesterday, she was almost tired of playing games on her mobile phone, and Cheng Yi didn't have any extracurricular books to read on her bookshelf. So she brought breakfast to Cheng Yi at the advice of her mother, and specially prepared a comic book to relieve her boredom. There's no way, whoever makes Cheng Yi look lifeless and doesn't chat with her, she's almost bored to death.

After Cheng Yi finished eating, he took out the medicine from the cabinet on the side and ate it, and he took a language book from the bookshelf and began to flip through it.

"When are you going back?" Cheng Yi suddenly said, He Xi stayed here, he always felt that something was wrong.

"Later." He Xi flipped a page of the book, "What's wrong?" ”

"Nothing." Cheng Yi glanced at the comic book in her hand and said, "You read this every day?" Finished with math papers? Tomorrow the teacher will collect it. ”

Listening, He Xi's eyes widened suddenly, as if he had been electrocuted, and then he remembered that there was such a thing as a math test paper.

He Xi suddenly leaned towards Cheng Yi slowly, she looked at Cheng Yi with a smile, and said, "What, I saw you make a roll that day, see if you can ......" He Xi paused, "Borrow me to copy it?" ”

Cheng Yi squinted at her, with the word disgust written on his face: "Do it yourself!" As he spoke, he moved to the side in order to keep his distance from her.

He Xi looked at him with a bitter face, and said in a begging tone: "Just look at a few questions, I won't copy them all." ”

Cheng Yi still ignored her, and just as He Xi was carrying out the next "attack" on Cheng Yi, Cheng Yi's mobile phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone and pressed the answer button after seeing who the caller was.

Jiang Heng's anxious voice accompanied his footsteps rang on the other end of the phone: "Finally escaped from my mother's clutches, Xiao Yiyi, I'll look for you later, let's see you in the old place in the evening." ”

Cheng Yi let out a soft "um" and hung up the phone. After hanging up the phone, he looked at He Xi and hesitated for a long time before he spoke: "Jiang Heng and I are going to eat hot pot in the evening, do you want to ......?"

"Yes! I'll go. Cheng Yi's words were interrupted by He Xi before she finished speaking, and she was looking at herself happily.

"Oh." As he spoke, he looked at the book to himself.

He Xi, who was on the side, grabbed his arm very excitedly at the moment and asked, "Which hot pot restaurant is it?" What time are you going? ”

Cheng Yi looked at the hand that was grabbed by her, he frowned instantly, and subconsciously gently shook off her hand, He Xi looked at the palm that was thrown away by him, and he didn't care, just waiting for Cheng Yi's answer wholeheartedly.

Cheng Yi moved to the side again and said, "Where do you think there is a hot pot restaurant in Nanxiang District?" ”

That's right, the area of Nanxiang seems to be the hot pot restaurant in front of the alley, although He Xi has not been there, she has more or less heard of that restaurant. I heard that the business is quite good, and those who want to go there to eat hot pot must either go early or make an appointment early, otherwise it will be difficult to grab a seat.

Just when she wanted to ask something more, Cheng Yi didn't know when she got up, and stood in front of her, still holding a white scroll in her hand, and Cheng Yi handed it to her.

"I don't have any requirements for you, you can take this back, if you have the ability, try to make a few dishes yourself, and you won't look at it again." After speaking, Cheng Yi handed her a few more pieces of A4 paper, "Here is a detailed solution process, and I have also marked the formulas to be used for each question, you can do it yourself." ”

He Xi looked at him gratefully, pretending to snort, and took the roll, she was about to swell with joy, what kind of good day is this today? The hot pot allowed her to catch up, and she also copied the papers, so she finally didn't have to worry about being criticized by the math teacher, which is simply the pinnacle of the scumbag's life.

"Cheng Yi~ You are really my savior, I like you so much!" He Xi happily said some nonsensical words.

It may be that the speaker has no intention of listening to the heart, Cheng Yi was stunned for two minutes when he heard her last sentence, and when he reacted, He Xi was holding the scroll with two fingers, and the rest of his fingers were holding the comic book, looking at it with relish.

He Xi was seeing the wonderful part, she was engrossed in reading the comics, Cheng Yi didn't care about her, she sat there and reviewed, everyone did their own thing, and did not interfere with each other.

stayed at Cheng Yi's house until the afternoon, He Xi told Cheng Yi that she went home first, in order to keep in touch with Cheng Yi, she also asked Cheng Yi for her mobile phone number, and Cheng Yi gave her the number without hesitation.

On the way home on the bicycle, He Xi kept thinking about the plot in the comics, and I don't know how long it took, as soon as she looked up, she saw the building at home, and she pushed the car into it and went upstairs.

He Xi put the comics she had just finished reading into her schoolbag, and took out a comic she had read before on her small bookshelf, no way, her love for comics can surpass everything. He Xi lay on the bed and took the trouble to read the comics again, hey, who let her have no money to buy a new issue, and when her pocket money is sent next month, she must buy those two issues at once.

He Xi received a call from Cheng Yi at half past seven, she told her parents that she wanted to go to eat hot pot with Cheng Yi, so she hurriedly took a coat and ran out.

The three of them came to the hot pot restaurant, there were still the same number of people in the restaurant, Jiang Heng led them to the predetermined location, the waiter brought the menu, and several people began to order.

He Xi ordered a few dishes he liked and handed the menu to the waiter, Jiang Heng looked at He Xi, and was about to ask something, but he still held back his words.

"I almost forgot you can't eat spicy." Jiang Heng glanced at Cheng Yi and said to the waiter, "Here's a mandarin duck pot." ”

He Xi was sitting next to Cheng Yi and was looking at him with a questioning face: "Can't you eat spicy?" ”

Cheng Yi nodded and continued to order with his head down.

The three of them ordered the dishes, and after a while, all the dishes were served one after another, He Xi remembered that they hadn't prepared the sauce yet, and when she was about to go out, Jiang Heng stood up and asked, "I'll prepare the sauce, He Xi, do you have any taboos?" He knows Cheng Yi's taste best, and every time he eats hot pot, they will take turns preparing sauces, so he knows what kind of sauce he wants without asking Cheng Yi.

But He Xi, he didn't know, he just went to prepare the sauce today, so he still had to ask.

He Xi: "Huh? He waved his hand at him: "Don't bother, I'll do it myself." ”

Seeing that she insisted on coming by herself, Jiang Heng didn't say anything more, he went out first and walked to the sauce area. He Xi was blocked by Cheng Yi, and she said to Cheng Yi, who was playing a game next to her, "Cheng Yi, let me go, I'll go out to prepare the sauce." ”

Cheng Yi looked up at her at this time, just looked at her phone, and didn't care much that she was going out, Cheng Yi gave her way. He Xi also came to the sauce area, scooped a few spoonfuls of his favorite sauce and came back.

He Xi sat back and put the sauce on the table, as soon as Jiang Heng saw her sauce, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "He Xi, why didn't you ask for coriander?" Eating no coriander in the hot pot sauce is equivalent to losing the soul of the hot pot. ”

He Xi smiled, "I don't like to eat coriander, and besides, what kind of hot pot soul are you talking about, how can it be as exaggerated as you say?" She has been in middle school in her grandmother's village since junior high school, and occasionally goes out to eat hot pot with a few classmates, because she doesn't like to eat coriander, so her ingredients have not changed.

Cheng Yi also looked at it, but he didn't say anything in his mouth, he soaked a few pieces of mutton and ate it when it was cooked. He Xi also pinched a few pieces, when eating, because she was left-handed, and sat next to Cheng Yi, her left hand would always wipe the back of Cheng Yi's right hand intentionally or unintentionally when she held chopsticks.

She smiled embarrassedly and said, "What's that, otherwise, let's change positions, right?" ”

Cheng Yi hesitated, but decided to change positions with her, He Xi sat in Cheng Yi's position, and when she first sat up, she felt that the position was a little hot, and after a while, she sat comfortably and ate.

On the way home, Jiang Heng kept chattering, complaining about how his mother controlled him, and confiding in them how hard he had lived on the weekend.

He Xi listened to Jiang Heng talk about himself all the way, and he said that he would only live a leisurely life at Cheng Yi's house. At home, except for eating, going to the toilet, and sleeping at night, he studied under supervision, and had no private space of his own.

Cheng Yi listened to the dissatisfaction and complaints in Jiang Heng's mouth, but he secretly envied the feeling of being managed every day in his heart.

Jiang Heng, you don't know, the family you have always wanted to break away from is beyond my reach.
