Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Angry Dummy
Mo Qiuci walked to the door and stopped, she raised her hand to open the door, and cautiously poked her head out.
It was only about six o'clock in the morning, and there weren't many people getting up, and she stared at the aisle outside for a long time, but she didn't see a single person passing by the aisle in front of her.
Hasn't Lu Mian gotten up yet?
Mo Qiuci looked at the staircase to the third floor suspiciously, she was thinking about whether she should go up and have a look, but as the saying goes, men and women don't kiss, although as a modern person with new ideas, she doesn't feel anything at all, but the people here are completely different from her.
Their minds are still in a very open stage, Mo Qiuci is afraid that if she knocks on Lu Mian's door today, it will spread everywhere at noon, besides, even if there is no such possibility, she doesn't know which Lu Mian's room is!
Alas, it can only be said that it is the will of God! It seems that I should go down and sit and wait for him to get up!
Mo Qiuci opened the door directly, walked out with his feet raised, and then closed the door with his hand, and walked downstairs quickly without looking back.
Now that she was up, it was impossible for her to go back and lie down, and she didn't want to go back to that room at all, and continue to face the things on the table that she didn't know who had put there.
As soon as Mo Qiuci saw them now, she would feel that the temperature around her had dropped suddenly, and the whole room had become cold and cold, as if there was a person she couldn't see who had been standing in the dark, so she didn't hesitate at all, and extinguished the idea of going back to lie down.
As soon as he came down from upstairs, Mo Qiuci saw that there were already some people sitting downstairs eating breakfast.
Eyes swept over the table in front of them, Mo Qiuci raised her hand and touched her stomach that had been "gurgling-" screaming, she thought that since she had already gotten up, it was better to eat something first, after all, nothing was more important than filling her stomach.
Thinking so, Mo Qiuci raised his feet and walked to the counter.
Yan Yanshan surprisingly didn't stand behind the counter today, Mo Qiuci glanced at it, except for a few people downstairs who were busy greeting guests and serving food, there were only guests left to eat.
She stood at the counter for a while, and the juniors busily passed by her, but no one paid attention to her.
Although Mo Qiuci was a little hungry, she was not in a hurry, she stood there and waited for a while, and at the same time stared at the little two who were coming in and out for a long time, and by the way, she also used her spare eyes to pay attention to the place where she went to the back kitchen, but after looking at it for a long time, she didn't see the person she wanted to see.
Is it out? Why not?
Mo Qiuci's doubts became more and more, and in order not to let them occupy her mind anymore, she reached out to block his way while Xiao Er passed in front of her.
"Eh, this little brother. She took a step forward in front of the little er, withdrew her hand and looked at him and asked, "Where is Boss Yan?"
The person who was pulled by her turned his head to look at her, and Mo Qiuci suddenly felt that he looked a little strange, but for a while he couldn't see that something was wrong.
"The cigarette boss went out and came back about noon, and the guests told us if they needed anything. Xiao Er looked at Mo Qiuci and pulled out an extremely standard smile, and after answering her question, he walked away directly.
!!??
That's it!?
Mo Qiuci was surprised.
Didn't she say that there was something to tell them?!He just left, so what else did she command?!
With surprise and doubt, Mo Qiuci stared at the back of the little second child leaving for a while, and when she retracted her gaze, she felt that something was wrong with him.
I don't know if it's an illusion, she thinks that Xiao Er is like a wooden man, and he has no popularity at all.
When Mo Qiuci just stopped him, his reaction was very indifferent, although his eyes stayed on her, his eyes were empty, his attention was not there, and in the process of Mo Qiuci opening his mouth to talk to him, he didn't have any expression the whole time, until Mo Qiuci asked him where Boss Yan went, and he had some expression on his face, but that expression looked very fake, as if a piece of wood had been carved with a smiling face, how weird it looked.
That Xiao Er walked quickly, and after his figure completely disappeared from Mo Qiuci's line of sight, she turned her head and turned her gaze to the others.
I always felt that what she had just seen was not an illusion.
After that Xiao Er left, there were only two Xiao Er in the store, and Mo Qiuci didn't go to see the guests who were eating, but set his eyes on them.
At this time, Mo Qiuci didn't care about anything different from men and women, she stared at the two little two for a long time, carefully observing their expressions and actions.
As she observed, Mo Qiuci was even more convinced that what she had just seen was not an illusion.
I didn't know if I didn't look at it before, but after this look, I found that the two little two were the same as the little two she stopped before, with a sluggish expression and a mechanical expression. At first glance, I don't think there's anything, but when I look at them more, I think they look like a dummy, no, it's a dummy at all.
Mo Qiuci recalled their appearance when she saw them yesterday, she remembered that they looked normal at that time, everyone was full of vitality and spirit, how could they become dummies in just one night's work!
Mo Qiuci couldn't figure out why, her eyes were still on one of the two Xiao Er, following him around, watching him approach her side little by little.
He should have gone to the kitchen, so he must have passed the counter, Mo Qiuci didn't think about it anymore, she suppressed the curiosity in her heart, and waited for the little second to come to her.
When Lu Mian woke up, it was not yet dawn, or he was not asleep.
After talking to Yan Yanshan and returning to the room, he closed the door and stood at the door for a long time, and finally washed up his legs and lay down on the bed.
It's just that he didn't sleep, but continued to think about things.
Those things are all about Mo Qiuci, and they are also about his future, and he can't be careless at all, which is why he is so annoyed.
is still the same sentence, Lu Mian doesn't want to continue to deceive Mo Qiuci, let alone continue to get along with her with the identity he created in front of Mo Qiuci now, because that will make him feel more and more guilty and feel more distressed about Mo Qiuci's situation.
A person like him, who has been manipulated by others all his life, can't have the slightest idea of feeling sorry for others, otherwise it will affect that person.
What to do?
Lu Mian thought about this question repeatedly, he lay on the bed tossing and turning, tossing and turning, although his eyes were always closed, he didn't feel sleepy at all.
In the second half of the night, he was almost finished, and then he fell asleep in a daze, but only after a while, he woke up again.
The moon was falling and the stars were sinking, the sky was almost dawn, Lu Mian was lying on the bed staring at the roof, he didn't plan to take Mo Qiuci with him.
Although she found that Xiao Er in the store was abnormal, Mo Qiuci still stopped the Xiao Er who passed in front of her and ordered a bowl of porridge, a few dishes and two small white flour steamed buns with him.
When the little second child got off and went to the kitchen, she found a random table and sat down, waiting for him to bring those things up.
Mo Qiuci didn't know what she should do now, she was in a state of confusion, despite what she had experienced yesterday, she was still confused.
And even if she wanted to do something, it would be difficult for her to do it.
So.
For now, let's fill our stomachs first!
When Lu Mian came down from upstairs, Xiao Er had already delivered the food to Mo Qiuci, and she was chewing steamed buns while sending side dishes to her mouth.
"Early. Lu Mian walked straight up to Mo Qiuci and smiled at her when she looked up at him.
“...... Early. Mo Qiuci hurriedly swallowed the steamed bun in his mouth and replied to him.
The steamed bun was just steamed in the morning, but it was still very choked after swallowing it violently, Mo Qiuci's face was suffocated, and after she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Lu Mian to say anything, so she directly lowered her head and took the porridge and poured it into her mouth.
"......" Originally, Lu Mian wanted to continue talking to her, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed back when he saw her like this, "You eat slowly, I just say hello to you, and if you don't answer, it's nothing." ”
He walked up to Mo Qiuci and reached out and patted her on the back gently.
After drinking that mouthful of porridge, Mo Qiuci immediately felt much better, and someone was patting her on the back, so she was even more comfortable.
After relieving herself, she waved her hand at Lu Mian, signaling that he didn't need to shoot.
Lu Mian withdrew his hand and sat next to her.
"Would you like something to eat?" Mo Qiuci asked, turning his head towards him.
Her face was still a little red now, because of some violent movements, and the hair that had been tied up was loosened a little, and a strand ran out of the headband, passed by her ear, and landed near her cheek.
Lu Mian looked at the strand of "escaped" hair, and was a little uncomfortable for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he had already reached out and pinned the strand of hair behind Mo Qiuci's ear.
His hand was still in Mo Qiuci's ear, and after reacting, he didn't know what to think, and even touched the tip of her ear.
Feeling Lu Mian's movements, Mo Qiuci was stunned for a moment, she looked up at Lu Mian, looking dazed and at a loss.
Why touch her ears all of a sudden!
She felt it when he was fixing her hair, but because his hand speed was so fast, she didn't have time to dodge him.
So Mo Qiuci thought that since he had already sorted it out, he would definitely withdraw his hand, so she didn't think about it anymore, who would have thought that before she put the steamed bun to her mouth, the tip of her ear was like an electric shock, and someone touched it.
Realizing what he had done, Lu Mian was suddenly extremely embarrassed, he stared at Mo Qiuci and winked a few times, then pulled out a smile full of apologies, and said to her: "I'm sorry, I just ......"
