The lights in the seaside restaurant were dim at night, with only a small electric candle at each table. The dim yellow light shines on Xuerou's delicate face, making it look particularly beautiful.
Compared with people of the same age, Xuerou's appearance is much more mature than them. She lost the innocence and innocence of a girl like Xiaojing, and gained the desolation and helplessness of the years. She took a few bites of salad, raised her head slightly, and focused her eyes on the old movie.
Suddenly, a message rang on WeChat, breaking the tranquility between the two.
Xuerou was nagging in her heart: Humph! Ye Siren, you damn monkey, are you finally willing to send me a message?
She clicked on it and saw that Lun Jingqing had taken a fancy to a certain brand of clothes and wanted to buy them, but she didn't have enough money, so she asked her if they could replace them.
After Xuerou explained, she recommended a few Taobao stores that she usually bought from, and finally dismissed Jingqing.
Soon, she ordered a three-layer assorted Wagyu Big Mac that was enough for four people, a snack platter for four people, and the Italian pizza queen margherita that Schubert ordered. As a person born in Vienna, Schubert has a fascination with pizza. For example, he thinks those with pineapple are alien and will never eat them, so he specially ordered this one with only tomato sauce and buffalo cheese (mozzarella). ) and basil pancakes.
As soon as the food was served, Schubert looked at the exaggerated portions on the table and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Can you eat so much?"
"If you can't eat it, just pack it away. It's nothing." Xuerou said calmly.
"Pack?"
"Just pack it, what's the problem?"
In the past, their family of three used to pack up leftovers from eating out and take them home. But when Schubert became rich, he no longer had this habit. Sometimes after a meal, there is still a lot left, and I don’t even bother to take it away.
Schubert was about to move his chopsticks, but Xuerou stopped him.
"Don't eat it yet, eat your phone first."
After she took some photos and checked in, the food was a little cold before she started eating. But before the burger was eaten, the WeChat notification sounded again.
Xuerou thought to herself: Are you finally willing to come? I will just look at you and not look back. I am so anxious for you.
She opened her phone and found that it was just a message from everyone in the group, asking her if the venue for her birthday party had been decided.
While typing, she said: "I have already booked a private room at my mother's place. You can go directly there when the time comes!"
After that, when I was about to eat, everyone in the group said a few more words: what to drink, what to sing, what games to play.
Xuerou went back and forth, half of Schubert's pizza was eaten, but she still didn't take a bite.
"Xue Rou, can you please stop playing with your mobile phone while eating? It's very rude. If you were outside, how would people look at you!" Schubert scolded.
Xuerou got angry after hearing this: "It doesn't matter what other people think of me, you only care about what others think of you!"
After that, he put down the knife and fork in his hand and stuffed the three-layer burger into his mouth in one big gulp.
In fact, the Big Mac burger in this high-end restaurant was originally designed to be eaten in layers by customers. But there are always some boys with big mouths who can bite off three layers in one bite. The store clerk never expected that a girl like Xuerou could also bite off three layers in one bite.
Sauce and meat foam instantly erupted from the burger and flowed all over Xuerou's hands. But I saw her sucking her fingers calmly and continuing to eat. Her left hand, which was still stained with juice, picked up another orange juice and took a big sip.
"Kah~" I didn't forget to say a long "karma".
Schubert was shocked when he saw it. When she thought about the aristocratic etiquette he had taught her for almost ten years, it was all in vain.
At this time, her WeChat message rang again. She quickly wiped her hands with a wet tissue and clicked on it.
Tmd, it's not Ye Siren, it's just Jingqing who came to ask her about Taobao. She casually brushed it off, then took another big mouthful of hamburger, then picked up the fried chicken wings from the snack platter and stuffed it into her mouth.
While biting, he cursed Ye Siren from the bottom of his heart: Good guy, except for parents, no one has ever dared not reply to my message within an hour, tmd, you didn’t reply for a whole day, right?
Good guy, come here without sending a message, don’t you think about replying!
She cursed a few times and angrily turned off the phone screen.
Schubert looked at it, a little concerned: "Eat slowly, don't be like a pig."
After that, he took out a tissue and wiped the sauce from the corner of her mouth.
"Even if he is a pig, he is still a cute little piggy." Xuerou ate the steak he brought to her mouth with satisfaction: "The days with dad are so happy!"
Xuerou in his mind said this to him.
Then, Xuerou now took the tissue as if she was a little disgusted.
"Why are you so angry? Is your boyfriend angry with you?" Schubert asked tentatively.
Boy friend! ?
Xuerou was stunned for a moment and couldn't react. The food was stuck in her throat and she was very uncomfortable.
Upon seeing this, Schubert quickly walked behind her and immediately used the Heimlich maneuver to rescue her. He stood behind Xuerou, put his hands around her waist, and asked her to lean forward slightly. Then make a fist with one hand, wrap it with the other hand, place the fist on the lower edge of the ribs and above the navel, and then squeeze upward and inward several times. It took a lot of effort to get the food out of her throat.
Xuerou blushed, panted, and sweated. She looked at Schubert's face a little weakly and said with difficulty, "Thank you..."
"Um."
The two of them were a little dazed, it felt like they had seen each other before.
After eating, neither of them said anything. Xuerou took the remaining things she packed and took Shubert's car back downstairs.
"Shall I take you up?" Schubert said softly.
He walked with her for half of the way, but Xuerou still felt a little uncomfortable and said, "I don't want it anymore...it's inconvenient."
she said softly.
"Well... okay then."
Schubert said indifferently, turned around and went downstairs, walked a few steps, stopped and said, "Can we go back to the way we were before?"
"It's impossible. After all, we can't go back."
"Yeah. That's true too." Schubert said and continued walking.
Xuerou kept looking at his back until he disappeared into the stairs.
At this time, it suddenly started to rain, just like it did on that midsummer night.
On the other side of Hong Kong, Uncle Ye's boat docked at a private pier in Tsing Yi, a deserted area.
Ye Siren got off the boat and the signal on his mobile phone returned to normal. He was thinking about whether to reply to Xuerou, but when it rained again, he wanted to go to his father's place of work and help him push something.
Along the way, besides reading the news in the group, Siren was just thinking about how to get back to Xuerou.
First of all, if he replies, he will definitely die. . .
But if he doesn't reply, when he meets Chen Nanfang when he goes back to her, he will die, and he will die even more hatefully;
However, if you reply, maybe after she is done with her anger, she will not be so angry next time we meet...
After several ideological struggles,
He wrote a short essay of several hundred words, clearly explaining his reasons and motivations, and also explaining his attitude towards Xuerou, so that she could have a balance in her heart.
He looked at his essay carefully and prayed several times while holding the cross on the subway: "Lord! Is it better to post it or not to post it..."
Finally, he took a deep breath, closed his eyes, raised his fingers high, and thought to himself: If it can be released at such a high level, then the Lord also wants me to release it, right?
After that, he waved his hand.
Soon, WeChat kept vibrating...
He opened one eye with difficulty to read WeChat...
A big red exclamation mark came into view.
Tmd, I was so nervous all day for nothing, but it turned out that I was blocked!
After thinking about it, isn't this blacklisting even more serious...
He still said a few words in disbelief, and sure enough...
Suddenly, Xuerou sent several more messages to scold him.
He also wanted to return her, but she had already blocked him...
turn out to be. . . .
Xuerou forgot that she had blocked him...
Still sending messages.
This time, Siren was left speechless.
Just after Siren got out of the subway station, there was a sudden crackle and thunder, and huge raindrops hit the ground.
"Oh no!"
He looked at the sky and worriedly rushed to the route where his father worked.
But I saw a sanitation worker, braving the rain, working hard to push a load of heavy garbage to the safety island in the center of the road. But accidentally, he and the cart overturned in the middle of the road. Seeing this, Siren immediately rushed out of the red light, rushed over, righted the car, and put the scattered garbage back into the car.
"Dad, are you okay?" Siren helped the sanitation worker and said.
"Didn't you go to Daya Bay with your uncle? Why are you back?"
"Uncle didn't say you can't get off the boat if you're passing by," Siren said.
The two said, smiling and slowly pushing the car to the safety island.
"Siren, although it is very hard to go to sea, returning from the journey will broaden your knowledge and knowledge, which will be very helpful for your future life experience. It is much better than studying music! No matter how good you are in music, it can only help the rich. People work for their entertainment." Dad Ye was teaching Siren while pushing the cart.
"Although this trip will affect your academic performance while studying in Hong Kong, having this official recognition from your uncle will also be very helpful for you to take the civil service examination and go back to the mainland to go to university in the future. So, you have to endure a little hardship and gain so much, It's worth it. Moreover, many people would envy them. It's not that you don't know that boat operators are much more strict now than before. It just so happens that your uncle has an establishment and he is a soldier. Although it is a bit risky, but As long as you follow him obediently and don't be impulsive, everything will be fine." Father Ye nagged again.
As he spoke, he stuffed another peace charm into Siren's pocket.
"Dad, I don't believe in this, I believe in God." Siren was disgusted and wanted to return it to his father.
"I don't care what you believe! In short, you...get it for me! Do you know that when I was in the first year of junior high school, I had to wait in line at Wong Tai Sin Temple to get the incense sticks, so I begged you back? I can guarantee you a safe journey!"
"Dad, don't be so superstitious! When Xiao Zhang was young, his father even helped him beg for a piece of invulnerable Baijia Yi, and he was beaten into a honeycomb by others with ak. If your immortal can bless you, we will Did you end up in this situation?" Siren retorted.
"If God had blessed you, would you have lost so ugly in the National Day game? Unfilial son, you thought you believed in God and had a heavenly father, so you wouldn't have me as a father, right?"
As Dad Ye said, he picked up the broom and hit him with the broom head.
Siren endured the beating and finally pushed the car back to the safety island.
At this time, the rain was getting heavier.
"Dad! Let's push the car to the sidewalk first, and then I'll hit you as you please, okay?" Siren said nagging.
At this moment, a white umbrella suddenly appeared on their heads.
