CHAPTER XIII

Now it was Lin Yuan urging him: "What are you doing?" ”

Su Chong picked up the phone, fortunately the screen was not broken, he blew a mouthful of ash, sent the reply to Lin Qing, and stabilized his voice twice before confirming to her: "Teacher Hu's house?" Hu Buxian? ”

"Teacher Hu's family recently opened a noodle restaurant, and she asked for leave a while ago to help her parents open the noodle restaurant," Lin Yuan was vaguely envious, "The noodle restaurant is not big, but there are a lot of trivial things, I heard that Teacher Hu has lost two pounds." ”

I don't know if she envies Hu Buxian's family for having a noodle restaurant, or if she envy Hu Buxian for losing two pounds.

Su Chong was in the association, trying to inquire for so long, and he didn't know anything about Hu Buxian's whereabouts, but he didn't look up and look down with Lin Yuan all day long, this honorary member of the fishing team at work actually had first-hand information?

He stared at Lin Yuan strangely for a long time, why didn't he find out that in the Lin family twins, this two hundred and five was actually a treasure?

"Oh, can you hurry up?" Two hundred and five stomped their feet indignantly.

Su Chong borrowed the screen of his mobile phone to quickly check his image, the young and beautiful five good young people looked online, and he sorted out his coat easily: "Let's go." ”

He walked into the elevator with Lin Yuan lightly, and suddenly realized a terrible question: "Wait, Mr. Hu's noodle restaurant, Mr. Hu's parents are also there?" ”

"Yes, it's run by my uncle and aunt." The signal in the elevator is not very good, and the message sent by Lin Yuan to Hu Buxian has been circling in circles.

Su Chong almost knelt down for this aunt, he didn't say a few words to Hu Buxian, and now he saw his uncle and aunt directly, does God want to change his life for him and let him ascend to the sky in one step?

"I'll ask Mr. Hu what the most expensive item in their family is, and see if there is a big bowl of family photos," Lin Yuan looked back at him, his eyes revealing pity, "Su Chong, you give me a thorough explanationβ€”β€”"

Su Chong was frantically thinking about how to make a good impression on his uncle and aunt, when he suddenly heard Lin Yuan's long tone, and he was so nervous that he sweated.

He looked at Lin Yuan's gaze with a weak heart, why, could it be that even this two hundred and five had been discovered?

If Lin Yuan knew, he wouldn't have to eat his melons on the entire fourteenth floor, so he silently clicked on the quantity and quality of the gossip essence on the fourteenth floor in his heart.

This group of people may run hand in hand to Hu Buxian to announce the good news.

In her heart: "All ......" all?

Lin Yuan was unaware of the big drama in Su Chong's brain, and shook her arm to draw a huge circle, and her movements were a little exaggerated: "Family photo bowl, can you eat it?" ”

She said "Forget it" with a face: "Hey, don't bother yourself, you should eat a small bowl." ”

As soon as the elevator door opened, Su Chong Lin Qing was this rice bucket sister. He, a sunny young man, strode forward: "You send me the location, and I'll drive." ”

Lin Yuan came from behind, gave the young man a beating, and then pulled him to pick the most expensive special car and left.

Su Chong, who couldn't hold the steering wheel, had to rely on memorizing the route to relieve the pressure, and Lin Yuan, who was sitting in the back row with him, "dripped" twice on his mobile phone, and received two non-sympathetic voices.

Su Chong peeked at the two bubbles, and began to get nervous again, he tried to maintain his composure on the surface, and bent down slightly to the position of Lin Yuan's mobile phone by three inches.

Hu Buxian said: "It's too far, will you be late?" ”

Lin Yuan clicked on the second one, and Hu Buxian said, "Why don't I bring it to you." ”

Su Chong pretended not to care, his eyes fell on the car window, and the roadside street trees were mixed with light, casting a shallow mottle on his face: "Lin Yuan, when did you become so familiar with Teacher Hu?" ”

"Huh? Teacher Hu and I have been like this," Lin Yuan typed back to Teacher Hu, "When I was a child, Teacher Hu and her family were upstairs in my house, and she lived with her sister, but then she and her sister moved away. ”

Su Chong muttered sullenly, "Why don't I know? ”

Lin Yuan patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, you didn't ask me." ”

The special car carried them through at least two districts, and finally stopped in front of a residential community, Lin Yuan also came for the first time, and after getting off the car, he looked around, and the storefront lined up a whole street. Needless to say, he also guessed that Hu Buxian's family is estimated to be nearby.

But what he was puzzled was: "I thought that the association had divided the house for Mr. Hu." "The senior volunteers all lived in the association's real estate, and he was later demoted to the middle level, and the association also confiscated his house. Mr. Hu and his fellow senior volunteers, no matter how poor they are, they won't even be able to live on the 14th floor.

"It's divided, Teacher Hu said that her parents are old, and she can't take care of them if they live far away."

Lin Yuan finally found a place and pulled him to one of the stores, where Su Chong craned his neck to see that the brand-new signboard read "Nie Hu Noodle Restaurant".

She pushed her arm open the glass door, and an electronic voice sounded from the sensor overhead: "Welcome." ”

There were three long tables in the store, and it was just open for business, with only a few customers. An aunt in the kitchen lifted the curtain to take a look at the sound and greeted them: "What to eat?" ”

"Hello Auntie, we are Hu Buxian's colleagues," Lin Yuan walked over with a smile and looked into the kitchen, "Is Uncle here?" Good afternoon, uncle. ”

Su Chong followed behind Lin Yuan and held on to the door: "Auntie is good." ”

"Really? Specially here? I'm so embarrassed," Auntie wiped her hand on her apron and looked at them with a smile, "Say whatever you want to eat, I'll invite you to eat." ”

"That's not good, you have to give money this time. Auntie, you leave the exemption for the next time I come. ”

The aunt only joked with this girl: "Okay, you can come every day." ”

Su Chong read the menu in the store twice, and with this rice bucket to eat, she could close down Hu Buxian's new store.

Lin Yuan sat down and knocked on the edge of the table with chopsticks like a drum: "A big bowl for family portraits, a small bowl, and no coriander in a big bowl," she asked Su Chong, "Hey, do you want coriander for that small bowl?" ”

Su Chong, who had been dumb since entering the door, shook his head.

In less than ten minutes, a large and a small stack of noodles and bowls full of ingredients were served, and the uncle who cooked noodles in the kitchen gave them two poached eggs each.

Su Chong flipped his small bowl with chopsticks, and fished out a chopstick noodle from the bowl full of various braised pork, Lin Yuan's bowl was bigger than her head, and the scale of the side dishes in the big bowl was even more exaggerated, she hurriedly took out her mobile phone: "I'll take a photo for Teacher Hu to see." ”

Su Chong finally tasted the same noodles he had seen in Hu Buxian's circle of friends before, and tried his best to hold on to his steady personality and not dare to collapse, holding a small bowl and accidentally using too much force, eating noodles in small bites, eating like a big lady.

Lin Yuan, who was opposite him, seemed to have changed roles with him, she snorted and splashed the noodle soup on half of the table, halfway through eating, she thought of Lin Qing, who was treating, and pulled the paper and wiped her mouth: "Auntie, I want to pack another wonton noodle, and I don't want coriander." ”

Su Chong ate almost, took out a piece of paper and wiped the table for Lin Yuan, and asked casually: "Auntie doesn't seem to be very similar to Teacher Hu, does Teacher Hu look like uncle?" ”

Lin Yuan didn't say anything when he heard this, lowered his head and drank the noodle soup, his eyes dodging for a while.

This expression was common when Su Chong was working, but he had never seen it on Lin Yuan's face. He was sick for a moment, and his knuckles tapped twice on the table.

Lin curled his shoulders, hid behind the big bowl, held on to his gaze for a while, and finally stretched out his little finger hesitantly: "Let's pull a hook, you can't say it, and you can't talk to Huo Wei." ”

Su Chong hooked her, she lowered her voice and said, "Aunt and uncle are actually Mr. Hu's aunt and uncle." ”

He thought of the "Nie Hu" on the signboard, and just wanted to ask about Hu Buxian's biological parents, Lin Yuan turned his head and saw that his aunt was already packing for her, waving chopsticks and talking nonsense: "Auntie, don't give me chopsticks, that person likes to eat with his hands." ”

After Lin Yuan paid the money, she was almost deflated with Lin Qing, she didn't care whether the noodle soup was spilled or not, she shook the packing box, and said goodbye to her uncle and aunt in a jumping motion, when their special car returned to the association, she passed by the ice cream shop, and Lin Yuan went down to buy three ice cream balls.

***

Lin Yuan only told him half of it, and he couldn't chase her and ask non-stop, Su Chong couldn't stay at home at night, so he drove along the impression of the day, parked the car two street corners, and walked slowly towards the noodle restaurant like every person who goes out for a walk at night.

The street lamp forcibly poured the light from the branches of the street trees, and he copied his pockets when he saw a girl dragging a garbage bag half a person high and throwing it into the garbage can on the side of the street. She coiled her hair, her figure looked like a beard, Su Chong looked at her in a daze, the girl turned around and raised her eyes, and recognized him in the orange light: "Su Chong? ”

Su Chong froze.

"My mother said that Lin Yuan and her boyfriend came to dinner at noon today," Hu Buxian smiled at him, "It turned out to be you." ”

He regretted that he didn't give her a hand just now, and he could only explain awkwardly when he heard this: "Lin Yuan is not my girlfriend." ”

"I'm sorry, then my mom misunderstood." Hu Buxian whispered apologetically.

"Well," he emphasized, "I don't have a girlfriend." ”

"Then I'll apologize to you." Hu Buxian looked at him with a face full of confusion, obviously she misunderstood, what was he embarrassed about?

She pointed to the noodle shop: "Do you have a supper?" ”

Su Chong walked back to the noodle shop with Hu Buxian depressed, the noodle shop was already closed, but the lights inside were still on. Hu Buxian asked him to wait and walked straight into the kitchen.

He heard the sound of boiling water coming from the kitchen, and the chairs were neatly stacked under the table, making Su Chong a little afraid to sit down, she should have been cleaning in the store before, and the ground was shining with water, and it seemed that it had only been delayed for a short time.

Soon, Hu Buxian brought out two bowls of noodles, wontons, wontons, and dumplings.

"I haven't eaten dinner yet. There's not much stuff in the store, so I'll put some of everything, don't you mind? ”

Don't mind, Hu Buxian brought him a bowl of coriander for him to eat, and he didn't mind.

Hu Buxian sat opposite him and lowered her head to eat noodles, her eyelashes hung down to cover her eyes, she ate quickly, and her forehead was quickly covered with a layer of sweat.

Su Chong gave her the dumplings and wonton in the bowl, she looked up at Su Chong, and asked him strangely, "Don't you eat it?" ”

is also hungry, Lin Yuan eats like he has a grudge against the bowl.

Su Chong shook his head, put down his chopsticks, and said to her, "Lin Yuan told me that you used to live upstairs with your sister in her house. ”

"Yes, I didn't go out often at that time, and I didn't know anyone in the neighborhood," she smiled when she thought of Lin Yuan, "I know that there is a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses in the building, and it's hard for her to remember me." ”

Su Chong froze, and under her casual expression, she gently explained in her heart: At that time, my sister locked me up and didn't let me see anyone else.

Shocked, he almost said to himself: "...... She said you moved out later. ”

"Yes, it was more than ten years ago, and we haven't seen each other since."

More than ten years ago, my aunt rescued me.

Su Chong's back stiffened, but when the door of the store was closed, he felt a chill and didn't dare to speak.

***

Lao Tang and Huo Wei returned to the fourteenth floor from the hospital, and they didn't have time to eat lunch, so the two of them sorted out the report and finally handed it over to the association before getting off work.

The next day, the association sent him an email back, and there was only one sentence in the email.

Old Tang's face changed after reading it, and the association only asked one question: "Is it possible that Zhang Mo is a person with special abilities?" ”
