Chapter VIII
Today is Friday, after school, Zhixia wanted to invite everyone to her house for dinner, but after Chu Ziang's strong protest, the location was changed to Yu Ming's house. Bao Ningqian and Chu Ziang went to the supermarket to buy ingredients, while Yu Ming went home to prepare. Zhixia wanted to go to the supermarket with Baobao and them, but remembered that Huahua was still hungry at home, so she had to go home first and settle it down.
Walking to the front of the house, Zhixia habitually took out the key into the pocket of his coat of clothes, and after touching it for a while, he found that the pocket was empty, and immediately found that it was not good, and after turning over all the pockets of his body, he suddenly remembered the cake shop he had been to in the morning.
Damn, after answering Dad's call in the morning, she seemed to have put the key on the table and forgot to take it when she left. After realizing this, Zhixia hurriedly ran to the cake shop, the cake shop should be closed early at night because the business was not good, thinking of this, Zhixia couldn't help but speed up his pace, and the breeze brought by the soles of his feet swept over the fallen leaves on the side of the road.
The pedestrians on the road were curious when they saw Zhixia walking like a fly, and she didn't stop until someone called her name. "Gu Zhixia!" Sweat wet the broken hair on his forehead, Zhixia heard the sound and stopped the car and bent over to gasp, slowed down for a few seconds before straightening up, wiping sweat and turning back.
Ji Yufan, who was standing at the door of a barber shop, leaned against the wall, a hint of playfulness flashed in his amber pupils, and looked at Zhixia with a smile on the corner of his mouth holding his arms, the corners of his blue clothes were a little messy by the wind, and his iconic red hair was also dyed black, and the juvenile feeling on his body was completely different from before, which made Zhixia a little afraid to recognize "Teacher Ji?" ”
Seeing that Zhixia recognized herself, Ji Yufan put down his arm and walked towards her slowly, "Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhixia didn't want to explain too much, the run just now made her speak a little intermittently, "Teacher Ji, I... I'll leave first if I'm in a hurry, goodbye. After speaking, he waved his hand at Ji Yufan and continued to run forward.
Ji Yufan looked at the girl's running back and touched her chin and didn't know what she was thinking, at this time another girl came to Ji Yufan with two cups of coffee, looking at Ji Yufan who was stunned, she took one of the cups of coffee in front of him and shook it, "Brother, what are you looking at?" Ji Yufan came back to his senses, shook his head after taking the coffee, and then grabbed the girl's shoulder with his other hand and walked in the opposite direction of Zhixia, "Yumo, maybe it's not as boring here as we imagined." ”
Remembering the girl Ji Yumo met in the piano room today, she nodded approvingly, and after a while, she seemed to remember something, and looked at Ji Yufan curiously and asked, "No, brother, don't you hate your father's arrangement the most." Speaking of his father, Ji Yufan's face instantly turned cold, and the corners of his mouth hung up with a sneer, but he didn't speak again.
Zhixia, who ran to the cake shop, looked desperately at the closing of the door, and looked at the store with some reluctance to stick to the door. Just when Zhixia was anxiously trying to slam the door, a roar of a locomotive suddenly sounded behind him, and a cool black locomotive came into view, one person dressed in black straddled it, one foot on the car and the other foot on the ground.
Zhixia tilted his head and looked at her with some curiosity, only to see that the man slowly removed his hands from the handlebars and helped her towards the helmet in the faint light of the setting sun, the light yellow hair slipped down with the action of the debt helmet, her waist-length curls were a little messy by the helmet, and a few buttons were unbuttoned on the black shirt at random, and the looming collarbone added a bit of wild beauty to her. The man held his helmet and looked at Zhixia who looked puzzled, and smiled, "You don't remember me?" ”
Hearing this, Zhixia was even more confused, she really couldn't remember when she had met such a cool girl. Seeing that Zhixia didn't speak, the man was not annoyed, took out a bunch of keys from his trouser pocket and threw them at her, the keys drew a graceful arc in the air and fell steadily into Zhixia's arms, Zhixia looked at Mickey on the key and looked at the person in front of him incredulously.
In the morning, the sweet appearance of the clerk constantly overlapped with the person in front of him, and without the cover of the eye sockets, the jewel-like dazzling eyes exuded more unscrupulous charm. The man smiled and said with a hint of playfulness, "It seems that I remembered it, I originally wanted to wait for you in the store, but I went out for a short time, and I must be in a hurry if I can't go home." Zhixia lowered his head a little ashamedly, "I left too much in the morning, I'm sorry, and I'm sorry to trouble you to wait for me." ”
The man didn't seem to care, grabbed his hair, and then took out a pair of helmets from the bag hanging on the side of the car and handed it to Zhixia, "I'm just bored, I'll send you where you go." Looking at the helmet handed over, Zhixia waved his hand in a panic and said, "It's enough to trouble you, I'll just walk back by myself." The other party pouted when he heard this, then patted the back seat and continued, "I just came here, and I'm not very familiar with it, so help me recognize the way." After hearing this, Zhixia didn't shirk and took the helmet strap.
After straddle the car, Zhixia just finished reporting the location and flew out, because of the inertia of leaning back, Zhixia hurriedly grabbed the corner of the person in front of him, the wind roared in his ears, and he swallowed his saliva in fear as he looked at the flashing scene around him, but although she was afraid, she dutifully followed the people in front of her every time she crossed an intersection to popularize the name of the road. Zhixia didn't know that what she said was all drowned in the wind, and the people in front of her didn't hear a word.
Bao Ningqian, who finished buying vegetables, stood at the door of the community, helplessly looking at Chu Zi, who was staring at the big yellow dog behind her in the distance, and raised her forehead, "Xiao Chu, look, I'm standing here, and it won't bite you if it's leashed, come here." Chu Ziang sighed when he heard Baobao's words, and just as he mustered up the courage to take a step, the big yellow dog yawned and the leaking fangs scared him back again.
Bao Bao looked at him a little anxious, and the uncle sitting in the security room looked at it for a while, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked out and said to Bao Bao, "Little girl, don't worry, I'll call its owner out and pull it back to the store." Bao Bao nodded gratefully at the uncle, and then ran to Chu Ziang's side and comforted: "It's okay, the security guard went to call his master." ”
Chu Ziang watched the dog owner tie the dog back to the store, and stumbled and said, "I... I'm not afraid it will bite me, I'm afraid it will bite you. Then he took the dish in his hand and raised his face calmly. Bao Bao shook his head with a smile and pulled the corner of his clothes to the community.
When he arrived at the gate of the community, Zhixia took off his helmet and stepped out of the car, bowed slightly to the man, and said, "I'm bothering you today, I'll definitely go to the store another day to thank you." The man lifted the windshield mask of his helmet and showed beautiful eyes, smiled slightly, and said to Zhixia that he was not polite, while taking out a business card from his breast pocket and handing it to Zhixia, "If you need to pick up and drop me off in the future, you can call me, as long as I am free to be on call, I will give you a twenty-percent discount." ”
By the time Zhixia came back to her senses, the man had already disappeared around the corner of the road on a bicycle, she lowered her head and looked at the business card seriously, there were no extra patterns on it, only a name and a string of phone numbers. Her fingers swept lightly over the words on it, and then inadvertently pronounced the name on it: "Li Xiaoran..."
After going home and feeding Huahua, Zhixia hurriedly came to Yu Ming's house, when she arrived, Chu Ziang was sitting in the living room watching TV and picking vegetables, Yu Ming went to the kitchen to help with the bag after opening the door for him.
Yu Ming's house was neat but didn't look like a home but more like a hotel suite, Zhixia took off his school uniform jacket and hung it with the other three identical coats on the wall, and then changed his shoes while looking around the room.
Chu Ziang looked at Zhixia and raised his eyebrows, pointed at her with the dish in his hand, and quipped, "You shouted to cook, but you ran away without a trace, and you came when you were almost done." Say, did you go home to hide and relax? Zhixia glanced at Chu Ziang's funny appearance, turned around and walked to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the bags were skillfully cutting vegetables, but Yu Ming was standing in front of the pot with an apron, putting condiments in the pot seriously, and it looked like Yu Ming was in charge.
Looking at his smooth movements, Zhixia opened his big eyes and circled around him curiously. "Yu Ming, do you know how to cook?" Yu Ming snorted and looked at Zhixia with a smug face: "Of course, I not only know how to cook, but there are many things you don't know." Zhixia pulled his mouth, and a few black lines slid down his forehead, if it weren't for the fact that Zhixia would have believed him if he didn't want salt and didn't want money.
After he put the fried vegetables on the plate, Zhixia snatched the spatula and pushed Yu Ming out of the kitchen while saying in his mouth, "You go out and rest, just leave the kitchen to me and the bag." ”
Yu Ming, who was pushed out, sat next to Chu Ziang. Chu Ziang looked at the reluctant Yu Ming and handed him a handful of vegetables with a smile, "Yo, I've been kicked out, you can accompany me to pick vegetables." Yu Ming took the green vegetables handed over and pouted and didn't say anything.
After inviting the big Buddha out, Zhixia appointed the person who poured the dish back into the pot, and while adding water to it, he muttered to the bag, "Baobao, why don't you stop him." Bao Bao smiled, and didn't stop in his hand, "If he wants to do it, give him a chance to behave, there are not many boys who are willing to cook these days." Zhixia pursed his lips and disagreed, "Really let him finish copying, it is estimated that we will all go to the hospital tonight." ”
Bao Bao put the written dishes into the bowl and walked to Zhixia's side, "Okay, didn't you come as a chef just now, you don't know, I'm not much better than him." ”
After picking the dishes, the two gay men watched the TV boringly, Chu Ziang pressed his head on Yu Ming's shoulder, and his legs dangled on the edge of the sofa, Yu Ming didn't push him away with some disgust on his face.
After a while, I saw Bao Bao come out with a plate of dishes and say to them, "It's time to eat", Chu Ziang immediately jumped up from the sofa and pulled Yu Ming to the kitchen to help serve the dishes.
Although Zhixia's craftsmanship is not as good as that of a serious chef, it is also very good. Looking at the dishes on the seat, Chu Ziang swallowed his saliva, "Xiao Zhixia, I didn't expect you to cook so well, with all the color, flavor, and flavor." He added a piece of meat to the bag and put it in Zhixia's bowl, and then said with a smile, "You think Zhixia is like you, eating delicious food in the world but not smelling the fireworks in the world." ”
Zhixia Yuguang glanced at Yu Ming, then raised his eyebrows and returned to Chu Ziang, "That's it, I can not only cook, but there are many things you don't know." Yu Ming touched his nose embarrassedly when he heard the familiar words, and then raised the juice in his hand, "Ahem, let's have a drink." ”
The four teenagers at the table were chatting about interesting things, and Bao Bao just wanted to mention Chu Ziang's embarrassment at the gate of the community, Chu Ziang hurriedly scolded her and said, "I have a ball game tomorrow afternoon, you come and cheer me on, as long as you come, I can definitely win." "Tomorrow is Saturday, so everyone has no opinion, Zhixia said to the bag while picking up the meal, "Tomorrow Saturday, you will stay with me tonight, anyway, I won't sleep at night, and Huahua misses you." Bao Bao thought for a moment and nodded, but did not refuse. After the four of them were satisfied, Zhixia took his bag and went home. Chu Ziang stayed behind to accompany Yu Ming to clean up the battlefield.
Zhixia, who returned home, put down the key, glanced at the bag and Huahua who were playing happily next to him, and then swept the messy room that was picked up by Huahua and sighed, and the bag looked at Zhixia who had no love and smiled, "Who made you so busy every day and didn't have time to accompany Huahua, it can only play with the trash can at home." Hearing the words of bag maintenance, Zhixia pouted aggrievedly, and then began to clean up the room as appointed.
After cleaning up the house, Zhixia smelled the smell of sweat on his body, and waved his hand in front of his nose in disgust, "Baobao, you play with Huahua for a while, I'll take a bath first." ”
After taking a bath, Zhixia seemed to be full of electricity, smelled the fragrance and walked to the desk and sat down while wiping her hair, and when she saw Zhixia coming out, she took out her exclusive pajamas from the wardrobe and entered the bathroom.
Listening to the sound of bathing in the bathroom, Zhixia hung the towel around his neck, his half-dry hair was messily drooping on both sides of his cheeks, Zhixia casually pulled his hair behind his ears, and then picked up the pen and began to record today's events.
The cold moonlight hit the spread out diary through the gap in the curtains, and suddenly the wind blew the branches outside the window and squeaked left and right, but the room was quiet and only the sound of breathing could be heard, and the two girls were lying on the bed with a smile on the corner of their mouths, hugging each other and falling asleep......
