Chapter 45: Eating is a Hard Job

"Hello?"

Rong Yue shouted into the phone nervously.

"Where have you been? Meals are going to be cold. Xi Zhengxuan's voice was still gentle and gentle, but it was gentle and gentle, but there was a little nervousness and doubt.

He was going to wait for Rong Yue to come back and eat together, but he couldn't see her left and right, and he didn't answer the phone, so he was anxious at the moment.

"You eat first, leave me alone."

Rong Yue covered her mouth with her hands, lowered her voice and secretly glanced at her mother.

Li Peilan, who was brushing pots and washing dishes in the kitchen, just turned her head.

"Yueyue, although you don't cook, there are quite a lot of things in the refrigerator, and why are they so fresh?"

Rong Yue was so shocked that she didn't have time to answer and hurriedly ran back to the bedroom.

He even pinched his phone to death!

Just in case Xi Zhengxuan hears it!

But on the other side, he still seemed to hear some voices.

"Do you have anyone there?" Xi Zhengxuan frowned, although he didn't hear it very clearly, but ......

"No, no, no!" Rong Yue was overwhelmed.

"Where are you, I'll look for you." Xi Zhengxuan asked again.

Rong Yue listened faintly, and he seemed to be getting up.

It is estimated that his leg accidentally hit the coffee table, which made Xi Zhengxuan snort in pain.

"Wait a minute! Don't move! Rong Yue, who was afraid that he would bump into it again, rubbed his temples with a headache, and made a "stop" gesture in mid-air, "I'll go back immediately, go back immediately!" Don't toss around! ”

She didn't give Xi Zhengxuan time to react, immediately cut off the phone, and then ran out and shouted to Li Peilan: "Mom, I'll go out and come back soon." ”

Li Peilan, who hadn't cooked for a long time, nodded and agreed: "Don't be too late, Mom's craft, rice-"

"Bang!"

The door slammed shut.

Li Peilan glared at the empty living room complainingly: "Reckless." ”

Rong Yue pressed the elevator but couldn't wait for a long time, so he simply went to climb the stairs, and when he knocked on the door of his house on the 20th floor, Xi Zhengxuan's voice sounded overhead.

"What are you doing, mysterious look."

"That...... An old classmate who hadn't been in touch for a long time called, so I went down to answer it. ”

Rong Yue was panting and lying, his eyes dripping.

Xi Zhengxuan asked casually, mainly worried that Rong Yue would be hungry if she didn't eat so late, so he beckoned and handed her the dishes and chopsticks.

Rong Yue smiled dryly, poured a glass of boiled water, and sat at the dining table absentmindedly munching white rice.

Xi Zhengxuan saw that she didn't move the food, so he took it to Rongyue's bowl and chatted with her without a match.

Rong Yue responded randomly, either "um" or "oh", and knew at a glance that he was not listening carefully.

This "perfunctory" attitude made the good-natured Xi Zhengxuan slightly annoyed.

And he said no more.

Rong Yue bit her chopsticks, and it took a long time to notice that Xi Zhengxuan's expression was a little ugly.

She closed her eyes in frustration and was about to laugh to please him, when the damn phone rang again!

Take a look at the remarks......

It's over, it's Mom.

"Why don't you pick up?" Xi Zhengxuan squinted at her and carefully took out her mobile phone from her pocket, like a thief, with a complicated expression.

Rong Yue covered the remarks and smiled stiffly: "Pick up." ”

Then she took it.

"Yueyue, didn't you say you'll be back soon? Where did you run, go home to eat. ”

Although Li Peilan is a broad wife, she used to live in a rental house with her husband and daughter, but she still learned to cook well. These three dishes and one soup are still very simple for her, and they will be done in a short time.

Rong Yue replied, "Okay, I know", put down the chopsticks and got up and walked out.

She even pretended to chat with her old classmates after the call, saying "I haven't seen you for a long time".

Then he turned his head to Xi Zhengxuan, who was looking at him, and said casually: "I'll go down and answer the phone." ”

After saying that, Rong Yue's soles slipped and ran away!

Xi Zhengxuan's sentence "Why don't you pick it up in the bedroom" choked in his throat, and he couldn't go up or down.

Do you have to go down and pick it up?

As if he was worried about him eavesdropping.

Xi Zhengxuan smiled angrily, put his chopsticks on the table, and even lost his appetite for eating.

This girl, are you starting to watch out for yourself?

What an old classmate, he is quite curious, he can make Rong Yue value it so much.

Xi Zhengxuan pondered alone.

And Rong Yue, who was out of breath and ran downstairs, was so tired that she wiped her sweat in the corridor.

Finally relieving herself, she patted her chest, took a deep breath, and walked into the room on the 19th floor.

As soon as the door opened, the smell of food wafted from the restaurant.

"Yueyue, you see that your mother made your favorite food before, and the craftsmanship hasn't changed at all."

Li Peilan pulled Rong Yue to the table and sat down, and then pushed a large bowl of rice in front of her.

"It's late, you must be hungry, eat more, it's not enough to have it in the pot."

She came after a meal at home, so this table of dishes was all prepared for her daughter.

Rong Yue looked at the fish and looked at the meat, only to feel that the nausea that had just arisen after the strenuous exercise was getting stronger and stronger.

To be able to spit out in front of her mother, she has used all her strength.

And I've already eaten most of the bowl of rice upstairs just now, and I'm ...... It's really completely unappetizing.

There was no way, Rong Yue stubbornly grabbed chopsticks and vegetables.

Li Peilan hurriedly used another pair of chopsticks to clip a big piece of braised pork and put it in her bowl!

Fat and lean pork wrapped in thick red sauce with a bright and greasy surface.

Rong Yue desperately suppressed the river and sea in his abdomen, grabbed the cup and drank water.

Mom's expectant gaze kept falling on Rong Yue, and she wanted to see herself take a bite of the dish she had carefully prepared.

For the first time, I felt that eating was a difficult job.

Rong Yue's amount of rice was not large, but for her mother's sake, she forced half a bowl of rice, two bowls of soup, three pieces of braised pork, half a fish and a few vegetables.

This is already the limit of her usual meals!

Finally ended this torturous dinner, Rong Yue slumped in the chair, unable to move.

It's a coincidenceβ€”

The deadly phone rings again!

When Rong Yue heard this voice now, he was instantly terrified!

You don't have to think about it to know that it's Xi Zhengxuan.

She wanted to cry without tears, and got up from her seat with her stomach in her hands, shouting "right away, right away", but her steps were very slow.

I was so full that I couldn't walk.

On the 20th floor, Xi Zhengxuan pointed to the half bowl of rice he had eaten on the table, and urged seriously: "I just ate too little, it's not good for my stomach, finish this." ”

On the 19th floor, Li Peilan dragged the ground and reminded with concern: "Eat for half an hour after eating, you can take a bath, go to bed early after washing, and don't stay up late in the future." ”

Rong Yue really wanted to blurt out-

"I'm not eating too much! In total, I ate all the amount I had from the previous day! ”

"Digestion? No, Mom, I've only eaten for half a minute! ”

But she ran back and forth upstairs and downstairs, not daring to say a word.

Rong Yue took a shower and changed clothes on the 19th floor, sent Li Peilan to the gate of the community, watched the driver drive the car away, and hurriedly returned to the 19th floor to change back into his original clothes, and then dragged his weak legs and fell on the sofa in the room on the 20th floor.

Xi Zhengxuan asked sourly, "Have you finished talking to your old classmate on the phone?" ”

Her stomach was uncomfortably swollen and tired, so Rong Yue said "um" without thinking about it.

As a result, Xi Zhengxuan, who was originally sitting next to him, suddenly snorted coldly inexplicably.

The hum is quite obvious.

It's the kind of air that comes out of the nose to express strong dissatisfaction.

Rong Yue heard it, so he turned his head in a daze.

Xi Zhengxuan got up on crutches.

She had to sit up with her hands, trying to help him.

Who would have thought, Xi Zhengxuan twisted his head, didn't look at Rong Yue anymore, and limped back to the bedroom recklessly.

Before closing the door, he glared at her viciously.

Rong Yue scratched his head.

Why are you still angry with yourself all of a sudden?

It was obviously her who was wronged this night, but Xi Zhengxuan started a little temper?

Rong Yue pursed her lips and simply went to sleep angrily.

Xi Zhengxuan, who was lying on the bed, tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Is it jealousy?

He has never been in love, and he can't grasp the reason for the change in his mood for a while, but he just feels uncomfortable.

Maybe so.

It seems that the emotions for Rongyue are getting more and more different.

He is not good at words, and he has never known how to express it.

Xi Zhengxuan sat up with support, looking at the lights of thousands of homes in the darkness outside the window in a daze.

Following.

Early in the morning, Rongyue went out.

Xi Zhengxuan saw that she had left breakfast and a note on the table, indicating that she was going home, and estimated that she would be able to come back on Sunday night if she was early, and wait until Monday if she was late.

Just in time I received a notification on my phone.

He opened it and saw that it was Rong Yue reminding him to remember the news of eating.

Xi Zhengxuan smiled slightly, and the trace of unhappiness last night disappeared.

It's okay, Rong Yue is not at home, and no one stops him when he plans to go to the club.

Although this leg is still a little inconvenient, it can be walked around.

When Xi Zhengxuan took a taxi to the venue, he was half an hour later than Dong Le.

"Captain? What are you doing here? Pan Qirui was the first to find him, and he was so shocked that he took off his helmet directly.

The others turned their heads one after another, and they were all stunned when they saw Xi Zhengxuan.

It's all injured like this, is it possible that he still has to train to prepare for the tryouts?

The team members instantly rushed up and surrounded Xi Zhengxuan.

He sat next to him, like a coach.

"Keep training, don't be lazy." Xi Zhengxuan grabbed the cue and knocked it on Dong Le's buttocks.

The training effect of everyone in the past few days has not been very good, perhaps because the main backbone of the team is not there, or it may be because of the loss of some fighting spirit.

But as soon as Xi Zhengxuan was present, the atmosphere was immediately different.

It's like, although he can't fight side by side with them, but with him by his side, he always has confidence in his heart.

Watching the players galloping on the field, Xi Zhengxuan looked down at his ankles.

In two days, he'll try to get back on the ice.

"Team Xi, why hasn't my sister-in-law come to the team recently?" During the intermission, Dong Le muttered.

"yes, we both miss my sister-in-law." Sun Bo chimed in.

"Where are you two now, Captain?" Someone else gossiped and asked.

There was a burst of laughter.

This sister-in-law is really more affectionate than herself.

Xi Zhengxuan shook his head and smiled helplessly.

But for some reason, he didn't explain the relationship between the two awkwardly like Rong Yue when he first came to the club, and only said: "She's busy." ”

Dong Le: They have some regrets.

Xi Zhengxuan leaned against the wall and thought to himself-

Develop?

Maybe...... The tryouts are a great opportunity.

He smiled.
