007 Embarrassment
After eating, after Chen Xu washed the dishes, he found Luo Xiyun, who was walking around the base camp, and said, "Let's talk." ”
"Okay." Luo Xiyun nodded and followed him to his usual place.
After sitting down, Chen Xu asked her, "What are your plans in the future?" ”
A trace of confusion flashed in Luo Xiyun's eyes, and his voice was a little low, "I don't know ...... either."
If the entire world of humanity were to disappear, there wouldn't seem to be much difference anywhere.
"In that case, I suggest you stay here for now." Chen Xu said.
Luo Xiyun raised his head and looked at him.
He continued, "One, the two of us are together, we have a headache and brain fever, and we take care of each other. Second, I have made a lot of preparations this month, and the living conditions here are definitely better than those in other places. What do you think? ”
"Let me think about it."
Luo Xiyun didn't agree on the spot, "I'll give you an answer in the evening." ”
"Okay."
Of course, Chen Xu hopes that she can stay, so the next few months will be much easier.
However, taking 10,000 steps back, even if she is unwilling to stay, it is not difficult to accept.
It's just a dream, and in five months, you'll be back in reality. It's not that you can't live without her. It was impossible for him to beg her to stay in a low voice.
………………
In the afternoon, Chen Xu cleaned up a room in a shop next to him and came out for Luo Xiyun to live in.
The room was empty for a month, and it took a lot of time to clean it.
Luo Xiyun also helped out.
After cleaning, another bed was brought in, and some tables, chairs, etc.
Before you know it, an afternoon has passed.
For dinner, Chen Xu simply fried two steaks, and there were no vegetables to match, so he got a little leftover mung bean sprouts and put them next to the plate. The sprouts were made by himself from mung beans, and he used them as vegetables.
After Luo Xiyun sat down, Chen Xu took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and said, "This is the legendary Lafite in '82, I took it in a very high-end Western restaurant, and I don't know if it's true or not." ”
As he spoke, he opened the wine and poured a glass from a goblet.
"It's the Genting restaurant on the top floor of the XX Building, right?" Luo Xiyun picked up the wine bottle and looked at it, and asked.
Chen Xu was a little surprised, "How do you know?" ”
"I used to go a lot." Luo Xiyun put the bottle down, "This has the logo of that restaurant on it." ”
The two worked together in the afternoon, diluting the strangeness, and talking to each other more.
Chen Xu raised his wine glass and said, "I heard that this red wine should be decanted with a special decanter, and the taste will be better." However, there really isn't that thing here, so we'll just do it. ”
"That's good, too." Luo Xiyun also raised his wine glass, touched it with him, and then took a sip.
After putting down her glass, she said, "I decided to stay." However, there are some things that I think are better to say in advance. ”
Chen Xu was very happy when he heard her say that he was willing to stay. There are still five months left until the end of the dream. It's better to have a companion than to be alone.
What's more, she is still a big beauty, and it is not bad to look at it every day, he said, "You can say anything." ”
"Then I'll be blunt."
Luo Xiyun crossed his fingers with both hands and looked at him, "You are not the type I like, I hope that in the future, we can keep a little distance between each other......"
The smile on Chen Xu's face froze, and he couldn't control the expression on his face and became stiff.
He couldn't have imagined that what she was going to say was actually this.
He knew that he was not handsome, nor tall, nor was his family rich. From childhood to adulthood, his popularity as a woman was not very good. However, he never felt how bad he was.
Now, in this dream world, only Luo Xiyun and him are left. In this case, it seems to be a matter of course for the two to get together. If any man has such an experience, I am afraid that he thinks the same way.
If I change to another woman, I probably think the same way.
However, Luo Xiyun told him bluntly, saying that she would not like him, and let him die of this heart.
Who do you think you are, why do you dislike me like this?
Chen Xu's face was hot, and he felt that his self-esteem had been hurt severely.
After Luo Xiyun finished speaking, he didn't say anything more.
There was an unspeakable silence.
Only the faint roar of the diesel generator running outside the door.
Chen Xu pinched the red wine glass in his right hand, stared at the steak on the table with a slightly charred skin, and after a while, he said slowly, "It's good." ”
His voice was a little hoarse.
After opening his mouth, his heart gradually calmed down.
It's not the first time he's been rejected by a woman, and it's just in a dream, and even the woman in front of him is not a real person, but a virtual one.
He coughed lightly and continued, "There are some things that are good for everyone to make clear in advance. I think your request is very reasonable and completely acceptable. ”
Luo Xiyun's originally tense face couldn't help but relax.
Chen Xu let go of the hand that was clenching the wine glass, took a clean towel next to him, and wiped the sweat off his hands, "It just so happens that I have something I want to discuss with you." ”
Luo Xiyun leaned back slightly, his brows furrowed obviously, and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"Since you are willing to stay, then, the two of us will live together in the future. I'd like to talk about the division of labor. ”
Chen Xu didn't look at her and continued, "Now, it's likely that there are only two of us left in this city. No electricity, no running water, no takeaways. Everything, you have to do it yourself. ”
"Before, I was doing all this alone. Now that you're here, it makes sense to share part of the work, right? ”
Luo Xiyun nodded and said, "It's indeed very reasonable." ”
"Originally, if it was really fair, all the work should be done in turns. Today I'll fetch water, you'll cook, tomorrow it'll be the other way around, I'll cook, you fetch water, but—"
"Considering the gender differences, I think it's better to change the distribution method. Manual work such as fetching water, getting diesel, and carrying heavy loads is mine. Things like cooking, washing dishes, and doing laundry are up to you. Do you think this distribution is reasonable? ”
Luo Xiyun nodded again, "It's quite reasonable." ”
"The specific distribution will be discussed tomorrow." After Chen Xu finished speaking, he picked up the knife and fork and cut the steak that had already cooled.
Luo Xiyun didn't say anything, and silently picked up the fork.
