It's almost ten o'clock at night.
The guests in the restaurant have been waiting for an hour and a half, but Jiang Xueming still hasn't come back.
Bu Liuxing and the head chef were preparing the last few dishes in the kitchen.
Jiang Bailu walked around the living room and garden several times, curiously looking at the various sea fish in the aquarium.
The two waiters, 9527 and 3301, helped to watch the hot water in the soup. They were not in a hurry and chatted without a word.
"Xiao Qi, why is that passenger of yours taking such a long time? Is something going to happen?"
"What could happen? Mr. Xueming is very gentle! He was very careful when blow-drying my hair. It was super warm!"
...
...
Just at this time.
Bu Liuxing called to the aunt who was looking after him and brought the last dishes to the table.
He asked everyone: "We are all alive! Is Brother Ming back?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Bailu running back from the side porch, shouting as he ran, "He's back, he's back! My brother is back, let's have dinner!"
Everyone sat at the dining table and waited quietly.
They heard the sound of heavy objects mopping the floor.
They saw Jiang Xueming retreating from the side passage, breathing heavily and sweating profusely, and had just half of his body out of the screen.
Jiang Xueming asked: "Who are you waiting for?"
"Uh..." Bu Liuxing felt embarrassed to ask, because Xueming's posture was really weird.
Ah Xing was ridiculed in his heart.
Finally I asked.
"Are you okay? Brother Ming? Well...where are my coach and two teachers? Didn't they come together?"
"Oh!" Jiang Xueming slowly dragged Li Zongzhu into the restaurant, using the same method as how he disposed of the corpse in a murder case.
Everyone at the table was stunned when they saw this scene.
Only Bai Lu looked normal, as if he knew his brother very well. He transformed into the leader of a violent rice-making team and served rice to each team member.
No one dared to gasp loudly, and no one spoke.
3301 looked frightened and leaned against Xiao Qi's ear, describing it in a super low voice.
"Qi...Are you sure this is the warm man you just mentioned...the gentle man who doesn't even dare to comb your hair?"
The corners of Seventh Brother's mouth twitched and he answered in the same super low voice.
"A man becomes more attractive if he has a little secret... Just like my old math teacher, when I was in class, I felt that he had many, many secrets. I didn't understand these secrets throughout high school."
Jiang Xueming carried Teacher Li Zongzhu to the guest seat. Only then did everyone realize that Teacher Li was still conscious, but very weak.
"Thank you...apprentice." Hearing the hoarse thanks coming from Teacher Li's throat, his eyes were sunken and his lips were cracked and there was no blood. He stretched himself out and raised his arms to force himself to bow, showing the dignity of a Jianghu person.
Jiang Xueming also returned the greeting: "You're welcome, teacher, thank you for your hard work."
Bu Liuxing still didn't know what happened, and then asked: "Brother Ming, where are my fitness coach and Teacher Liu who gave you the shooting test?"
"Oh..." Jiang Xueming wanted to answer.
Teacher Li answered weakly: "Those two bastards ran faster than the other and didn't take me with them..."
Jiang Xueming explained: "Teacher Liu came to the fighting venue to take a look, and suddenly received a call and said that his wife was going to give birth, so he left first."
"That's a happy event! I can give red envelopes to the baby! I'm an uncle! I used to call others uncle, but now I'm also an elder!" Bu Liuxing immediately became happy when he heard this, and asked again: "What about Liu?" The teacher has gone home, where is Coach Zhou?"
Teacher Li took the bowl handed over by Bai Lu and took a grateful sip of the ginseng soup, regaining some strength.
Jiang Xueming followed up and replied: "Coach Zhou also said that his wife is going to give birth to a baby, and the twins are still in labor, so it is very urgent."
"Oh! That's a good thing too!" Bu Liuxing clapped his hands with a smile and didn't feel anything was wrong: "Okay, I can give the baby a red envelope again, double happiness."
The family sat down neatly, with Ah Xing sitting at the head seat, enthusiastically serving dishes to the guests, and talking about the family's shortcomings.
"My mommy is not back and she is traveling outside. I am a carefree person, so I just did something casually. Don't dislike it."
"I made flower crabs and boiled cabbage hearts, and the rest are made by my aunts. There are milk toast, barbecued pork, asparagus and mushrooms. The main dish is Laoshan Ginseng Stewed Pig Zhan Soup. This is not Buddha jumping over the wall, but I Mommy knows how to stew Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, and let her cook it for you to drink later. It tastes very good. I can eat so much and grow so tall and strong thanks to her good cooking skills."
After Bu Liuxing said a few polite words, he started to grab food with Bai Lu.
The younger sister didn't see anyone outside at all, and she didn't go to any high-end restaurants in Hong Kong with her elder brother. She became a rival with Brother Xing at the dinner table.
While Jiang Xueming was putting away his own meal, he was helping Teacher Li add cups and cups, serving rice and vegetables.
Teacher Li Zongzhu was still wondering why this student suddenly became humane. He accepted Xueming's kindness with a flustered expression, "Thank you... thank you."
Jiang Xueming smiled and used serving chopsticks to put a few more wild ginsengs into Teacher Li's bowl. "You're welcome. I hope the teacher can recover quickly. I still have a lot to ask for in the future..."
Li Zongzhu's expression changed, and his eyes became extremely frightened.
Jiang Xueming continued: "I also want to improve my bone density. In fighting, the ability to withstand blows is very important. The pain will make my muscles spasm. I once vomited due to severe pain and abdominal cramps. This is very Dangerous situation.
If you want to train, the bones must be cracked with repeated blows. The cracks will grow new bone and become stronger. This is a long-term process. The nerve endings of the muscles will also slowly die and decline, and finally the pain sensation will be weakened. Is this the truth? teacher? So I will look for you often in the future..."
"Don't, don't, don't, don't... don't talk about work at the dinner table." Li Zongzhu was so speechless: "Have a good meal..."
Jiang Xueming just sighed: "It's a pity...the fitness coach left early, otherwise I could still work in the gym for a while."
The guests at the dinner table heard the whispers of Jiang Xueming and Teacher Li Zongzhu. The whole restaurant was filled with a weird atmosphere.
Bu Liuxing also understood. It seemed that Brother Xueming had tormented the two teachers to such an extent that the fitness coach went home to give birth to the child.
After eating and drinking, everyone dispersed in the living room. It was time to rest and chat.
Jiang Xueming helped Teacher Li back to the room alone. In the teacher's trembling expression, he said good night carefully and carefully.
When he walked out of the door and walked into the corridor.
He thought to himself that this teacher Li was really professional and responsible. If he hired this teacher according to the charging standards for fighting training classes, he would probably not be able to last long with the seven million in his account.
He has drawn up a long-term training plan and has a relatively accurate understanding of his abilities. The part that needs to be strengthened is this body that lacks strength, has fragile bones and is afraid of pain.
...
...
Under the guidance of the health aunt.
He returned to the room assigned to him by Bu Liuxing.
It was a private room with two bedrooms and one living room. In addition to the bedroom, there was also a small study room.
There are computers and drawing tablets in the study room, which A Xing seems to have specially prepared for Xueming - A Xing knows that Xueming can draw.
The floor-to-ceiling mirror in the study room can be opened, and inside is a barrier-free attic passage that leads directly to his sister Bai Lu's room. It only takes more than ten seconds for him to arrive at Bai Lu's side.
The left hand side of this pavilion road is the garden, and the right hand side is the road leading to the gate exit. If you encounter danger, you can jump down, but it is more than five meters high. You may be injured if you jump directly, and ordinary people cannot climb up.
...
...
After Xueming observed the indoor environment, he looked at the time again.
At 11:15, I decided to take a shower and change clothes to get ready for bed.
After a while, the sound of gurgling water came from the bathroom.
Just at this time--
——Xiao Qi sneaked over from Bai Lu's room.
Bai Lu whispered: "My brother is taking a shower, you seize the opportunity..."
"Thank you!" Xiao Qi took out the toffee from her bag and stuffed it into her sister-in-law's hand.
When Brother Qi tiptoed to push open the floor-length mirror, the alarm Xue Ming had prepared early went off.
The corners of the mirror pulled on the cotton thread, and the phone was pulled by the thin thread and fell to the ground, making an alarm sound.
Xiao Qi was stunned at that time. She didn't expect Mr. Xueming to do such a thing, and then looked back at Sister Bai Lu.
Bai Lu shrugged, her eyes innocent and helpless.
Xiao Qi had no choice but to bite the bullet and look forward.
She immediately saw——
——Hearing the sound, Jiang Xueming pushed open the bathroom door, revealing only a crack in the door, where Lao Yuan and Xiao Qi looked at each other.
From the crack in the door, Xiao Qi saw the bloodshot, tired and terrifying eyes, as if they were ready to eat people at any time.
"Hehehe... I'm sorry..." Brother Qi smiled awkwardly and stepped back: "I'll go out right now... I'll just..."
Jiang Xueming said word by word: "Which way are you going out from?"
Brother Qi immediately turned around: "Oh! I will never enter Bai Lu's room again...I...I'll go this way, take the main entrance."
When Brother Seven went to fiddle with the door lock of the room.
Mr. Xueming stopped Xiao Qi and asked him about something important.
"Wait a moment, I have something to discuss with you."
...
...
Brother Qi was sitting at the small table in the study playing with his fingers.
She was restless and worried, like a student who had done something bad and was waiting for criticism from the class teacher.
When Mr. Xueming revealed her identity before, she felt uneasy.
Talking about the past, she was just a coward at the station, delivering notes and tea to the big shots above.
For example, who came to the station recently, does this person look easy to bully, the route of action, where he lives, etc. This is the business that Brother Qi used to make a living on.
Also called [newsboy]——
——She also worked as a newsboy for many armadillo hunters, and later became a tainted witness. Many young men were arrested at the station, so she gave up her previous name and worked in the reclamation team for several years, doing several jobs. She worked as a coolie for many years. After she was released from prison, she changed her appearance as a waiter and became 9527.
Thinking of this, Brother Qi began to feel anxious.
She covered her forehead, feeling that if Xueming knew about this dark history, there might not be any good results.
"Even if he returns to the station, the first thing he will do is ask the boss to replace him with a waiter who has no criminal record." Brother Qi murmured carefully, clenching his hands eagerly, and digging his nails into his palms.
"Is Asing's waiter here?" Jiang Xueming was still taking a shower and asked casually: "If so, please call her over too. Be polite. I have something to ask you."
"Oh oh oh..." Brother Qi felt a little better. Although he didn't know what Mr. Xueming wanted to ask, now she, a bad student, finally had a companion. "That girl's name is 3301. Just call her 33." alright."
...
...
The two waitresses were whispering outside Mr. Xueming's door.
Brother Qi asked nervously: "Sansan... do you think he has guessed my identity? He has vaguely talked to me before, but he is so clever."
Sansan: "Just take things as they come."
Brother Seven is still worried: "I feel like I'm just like a bad student who didn't review at all but the final exam is over and is waiting for the teacher to issue a death notice..."
Sansan pushed up her glasses with an indifferent attitude: "That one is not called a death notice, that one is called a grade notice, or a fatherly and motherly love letter."
Brother Qi continued: "Look at me, look at me carefully. Am I beautiful?"
"Very beautiful, almost as good-looking as Wang Zuxian." Sansan boasted and attacked Seventh Brother: "When you and I were eating clay bricks in the reclamation team, I thought you were the most beautiful when you were eating clay. .”
Brother Qi was confused: "Why is it the time to eat dirt?"
Sansan said frankly: "Because at that time you were busy eating dirt and had no time to talk."
"Hmm... um!" Brother Qi pursed his lips, not paying attention to the words of his good sister, as if he had made up his mind: "I want to confess to him... I..."
Sansan waved his hand, asking Brother Qi to calm down.
"Don't be anxious. Look at your panic, and your nervous attitude as if you were a high school math teacher.
Can't you still modify your transcript by yourself? Teacher Xueming mentally gave you, this bad student, a failing grade. You can also talk nonsense and add a zero to the test paper. Isn't this an easy operation? "
Brother Qi calmed down and took out his makeup mirror to apply powder on his face and fill in his eyebrows.
"good..."
...
...
Then the two heard the sound of water in Xueming's room stop, replaced by the soft sound of unbuttoning and changing clothes.
Jiang Xueming's voice came from inside the door.
"It's been a long wait. Come in, you two. Sorry, I've been exercising a little too much today. I want to look clean and decent so that I can meet people."
"Hey, Xiaoqi." Sansan warned again before pushing the door open: "Don't be too excited when you meet the teacher. You'll tell everything as soon as you get up. Let's squat in the class room together. As your good sister, I will definitely help you cover."
"Yeah, yeah..." Seventh Brother became the leader of the violent kowtow group again: "Absolutely."
The two pushed the door open and entered.
In the mist-shrouded room——
- Keep the scent of shampoo and shower gel.
The moonlight shines through the iron railings of the terrace and in front of the study.
Xiao Qi saw Jiang Xueming sitting at the table in the study room, changing into serious clothes. Slim-fitting trousers hugged her hips and legs tightly, and her bare feet were on the floor.
The shirt on his body was still stained with moisture, his hair was not completely dry, and his skin was white and rosy and clean. He no longer looked like a beef offal seller working in a fume kitchen.
The man looked serious and stared at the drawing board.
The cold air from the air conditioner blew out, and his mouth opened slightly, breathing out white mist. He bit the penholder between his lips and teeth. The bruises on his right hand had not completely dissipated. He seemed to have encountered a problem.
At that time, Xiaoqi kicked off her legs and fell into the arms of her good sister.
Sansan hugged Xiaoqi tightly: "Isn't that right? Sister?"
"It's indeed a bit exaggerated." Xiao Qi still felt dazed, and stood up straight again and secretly said: "But this teacher is too awesome, isn't he?!"
Jiang Xueming talked about business to the two waiters at the door.
"I promised Ah Xing before that I would help him open a cafe at the station. In the middle of this month, I decided to go back to the station and talk to the BOSS about the armed employee ID. It doesn't matter even if it wants me to continue taking the bus. I To get this certificate, the armadillo hunters will not bother me, an armed employee.
In addition, regarding this cafe, I don’t know much about interior design, so I only made a sketch. If I want to open a store at a station, I have to ask you for advice on food hygiene, location selection and rent. "
Xueming had just finished exercising, had a meal and took a hot bath.
The air conditioner still couldn't dissipate the residual heat on his body, and there were all these chores in his head, which was also very disturbing.
After unbuttoning his collar, his chest was half-hidden and half-revealed. He fanned his ears, hoping to feel cooler.
"I hope you don't tell Axing about these things. After the decoration is completed, he is a Leo and his birthday is coming soon. I want to give him a surprise. Do you two hear clearly? Why don't you say anything?"
Xiao Qi covered her nose and said nothing.
Sansan handed over the handkerchief: "Did you have a nosebleed?"
Xiao Qi looked as usual: "No, those are tears."
Sansan rolled her eyes: "The distribution of your facial features is quite strange."
"It's touching, tears of nostalgia." Xiaoqi wiped away the nosebleed and immersed herself in the memories of the sixteen-year-old middle school: "Is this the feeling of teacher-student love..."
Jiang Xueming picked up the drawing board and turned around to look at it, looking confused.
Xiao Qi muttered silently: "He is so gentle, he is so considerate, he is so cute..."
Sansan lowered his head and wrote in the employee record book.
"She's such a disgrace."
