Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 156 156. I want to see you every day when I wake up

white shirt
Black coat
black casual trousers

Lightly waxed pomade, and put a white handkerchief in the outer pocket.

Li Xiao stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself who was rarely serious.

Carefully tidied up the collar, after all, it was the last journey, and deserved enough respect from myself.

The clothes fit well, because I just bought them last night.

White, black, the two most conflicting colors.

Yet strangely represents the same sentiment.

"You stay here today."

Li Xiao put a handful of sunflower seeds in Xiaolan's bird food plate. The sunflower seeds with their shells, like black and white piano keys being pressed, made a crisp sound.

"Then, you, be careful."

Xiaolan nodded obediently.

"Ah."

On the side of the road, at 12 o'clock, it was not as bright and clear as usual.

The clouds in the sky are very thick, blocking the blue of the sky and the glare of the sun.

"Driver, Lingyin Road Cemetery."

Li Xiao spoke lightly.

The driver's smile is restrained, not because of where Li Xiao is going, but because he knows that sometimes, certain behaviors and actions are very inappropriate.

The interesting joke that was about to be blurted out suddenly ended without a problem.

Emotions can be contagious and passed on, even if Li Xiao didn't reveal anything.

After all, wearing a black and white suit and going to the Lingyin Road Cemetery is definitely not a picnic.

"Ok."

The driver also spoke lightly.

Click, the door closes.

Tick-tock, the green empty car sign is put down.

Gently tap the accelerator, the wheels rotate slowly and accelerate, Li Xiao closes his eyes and leans gently on the backrest.

Some already familiar scenery outside the window is speeding back.

Inside the radio station, the hostess was talking in detail.

The place where Li Xiao lives is not far from the Lingyin Road Cemetery.

Driving to the side of the road, the driver hesitated for half a second and asked

"Here, do you want to drive in?"

Although Li Xiao knew that as long as he opened his mouth, the other party would definitely drive in.

After all, the drivers in Hangzhou are still very good.

But since the other party has opened their mouths, it is obvious that they have some scruples in their hearts, otherwise they would definitely drive in directly.

He also knows that every industry has its own taboos.

I don't need to force others to make things difficult for me. The reason why I set off early may be because of this thought.

Li Xiao smiled,
"It's okay, I just want to get off here."

As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and glanced at the billing meter.

A total of 33 yuan, click on the screen, scan the code, and prepare to enter the password.

The driver said apologetically

"30 will do."

Seeing Li Xiao talk so easily, he also felt guilty in his heart.

Li Xiao smiled, nodded, scanned the QR code to pay, and opened the car door.

Receipt notification sounds in the car
"You have received 33 yuan"

The driver poked his head out and saw Li Xiao walking on the side of the road waving his back, feeling a little lonely.

He sighed, regretting not sending Li Xiao in.

The road is long and short, and the cemetery is very quiet, without noise or noise.

From time to time, a slow-moving car passed by, the clouds in the sky were still thick, and Li Xiao's shadow on the ground was very faint.

Walking to the entrance of the vice hall, a black and white photo of Konosuke Kanko was placed at the entrance.

A staff member in white mourning handed out a notebook for someone to sign.

Although yesterday, Song Ruyue didn't need to bring anything.

However, Li Xiao still brought a white bag. After all, it was an acquaintance. Since the other party settled down in a big man, he should follow the old ways with the big man's etiquette.

white bag says
The time, the worshiper, and the name of the deceased.

There is 901 inside. In order to avoid the "double" or the "injury" of the homonym, the singular number is left at the end, which means reluctance and expresses condolences.

Putting down the white bag, Li Xiao signed it.

Take a deep breath and walk into the mourning hall.

The mourning hall is very simple, and there are only ten people sitting in twos and threes.

There are old and young, but the youngest is over 30, with sadness on his face, and several people are still wiping away tears.

In the innermost part of the mourning hall, stood Song Ruyue in white mourning clothes. She was particularly eye-catching today.

Although there was no makeup on his face and his expression was full of exhaustion, the white mourning clothes and the sad aura on his body made people feel very sorry.

Beside her, there was a very old woman with silver threads all over her head.

Seeing Li Xiao appearing, Song Ruyue was slightly taken aback, never expecting him to come so early.

After all, the funeral started at two o'clock, and it was only ten past one.

After the day she was in the hospital, she checked Li Xiao's information.

This anchor, who looks young but is very good at cooking, earns at least five figures for a 4-hour live broadcast.

Moreover, the frequency of his live broadcast is not low. If there is no personal matter, it is normal to live broadcast once or twice a day.

When Song Ruyue invited Li Xiao back then, she just wanted to try her luck.

After all, even though her father kept nagging Li Xiao and his master's names when he was sick, she knew very well that they were not familiar with each other.

In this world of chasing money and fame, who would do it for a dead and worthless person who is not even a good friend.

The people present here are all the few old friends my father made after he came to Huaxia, and the young ones are the disciples of the master.

Of course, they are not considered true disciples. Strictly speaking, they are students at most.

After all, father, he is a very traditional and rigid person, and he attaches great importance to such things as master and apprentice.

However, even if they were just students, when they heard the news of their father's death, they all expressed that they would definitely come to see him off.

What about wasting almost an entire day coming to a funeral?

Seeing Li Xiao approaching, the etiquette officer spoke with a very long voice
"A bow!"

"Bow again!"

"Three bows!"

"Family Thanks!"

Li Xiao first bowed at 45 degrees three times to the old man's body, and finally, Song Ruyue and the old woman bowed to him at ninety degrees in return.

Song Ruyue whispered a few words beside the old woman, then walked to Li Xiao's side
"I didn't expect Mr. Li Xiao to come so early."

Li Xiao sighed lightly
"I didn't expect that the last time we met was actually the last time. Anyway, it's okay, so it's better to come earlier."

Song Ruyue also sighed, indeed, they were all living in the best hospital in Hangzhou, and they were about to be discharged.

"The world makes people, accidents and tomorrow, you never know which will come first."

"Mr. Li Xiao, just find a place to sit down. My mother and I will preside over the funeral today. I'm sure the hospitality will be poor. I'm sorry in advance."

Li Xiao quickly waved his hand,

"How come? You are busy first, by the way, the condolences will change, I will just find a place to sit."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Li Xiao chose the corner seat and sat down.

Time passed slowly, and more and more people entered the venue.

Song Ruyue's colleagues, her mother's friends, her mother's relatives, all kinds of people, Li Xiao even saw a few people wearing the traditional costumes of the Sakura Kingdom.

The person who took the lead was about the same age as Konosuke Kano, but his momentum was much stronger, and the people behind who looked like younger brothers followed behind him obediently.

What the few people did was not the etiquette of a big man, but the kneeling of the Sakura Kingdom.

Li Xiao guessed that a few of them should be the old man's brothers and sisters, because the Sakura Kingdom seemed to value this kind of relationship very much.

It is very normal to travel thousands of miles to take the last journey.

People arrived quickly, but even so, the small auxiliary hall, which can only accommodate a hundred people, was not full, and the scattered and vacant seats seemed a bit shabby.

Song Ruyue stood on the stage, talking about the funeral speech

"First of all, on behalf of my mother and me, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the leaders, guests, relatives, relatives and friends who attended the memorial service today!"

The speech is very long, but compared to a person's decades, it seems very short.

The rhetoric is very gorgeous, and there are many things to say, but I don't know how much will remain in people's memory when the banquet is over.

The sadness in Li Xiao's heart became stronger and stronger. Emotions are so wonderful, the more they are brewing, the stronger they become.

"At the beginning, when my father came to the Han Kingdom for the sake of my mother, he gave up a lot and endured a lot."

"However, my father told me that he has never regretted it. If he did it again, he would make the same choice."

"Here, I would like to thank all the guests again for coming. I hope you all have a happy life. After all, other than life and death, other things are nothing more than trivial matters."

At 2:30, Song Ruyue's long eulogy finally came to an end.

At 2:35, all guests stood up and bowed.

At 2:38, the remains entered the cremation furnace.

At 3:38, the staff handed over the urn to the family members.

Song Ruyue and Xing Zhizhu's wife were already in tears.

At 5:05, after some pleasantries, the guests began to leave.

In the sky, the clouds began to change from papyrus white to light gray.

The wind also began to grow stronger, and the hair that had been sprayed with hairspray was blown into chaos by the wind that didn't know where it came from and where it was going to blow.

Standing on the side of the road, waiting for a taxi boredly, after waiting for a long time, I suddenly remembered, how could there be a taxi passing by in this place?
I clicked on Didi, and after 10 minutes, a car was called.

Coincidentally, it was the driver just now.

Li Xiao was a little stunned, looked up at some familiar colors on the car body, and subconsciously spoke

"Is it 91-94?"

The driver sneered, and said with some embarrassment
"Multiple platforms, multiple routes. Three melons and two dates are money, all for living. Don't complain to me when I send you an extra bottle of water later."

The reason for saying this is because most of the taxis are owned by the company. If the order is received on other platforms privately, once it is verified, it will be fined.

Li Xiao nodded, indeed, life, who dares to say it is easy?
The taxi will encounter all kinds of difficult customers. In order to avoid going to the toilet twice, they dare not drink water.

In order to run one or two more orders, the takeaway boy said sorry while rushing towards the red light regardless of safety.

Sanitation workers braved the scorching sun and swept the ground.

The white-collar workers in the office building worked overtime, changed plans, and scolded each other.

Middle-level executives are worried about whether they will be fired due to a mid-life crisis, worry about what difficult tasks will be issued by the higher-ups, and also consider how to train the lower-level people.

The boss is worried that the cost of materials will rise again, and there will be several more competitors in the market, and the price will start to be suppressed again.

Everyone, whether high or low, high or low, actually has difficulties and difficulties.

If you encounter a driver with a bad attitude, you should file a complaint.
If you encounter a rider who is too late, you should file a complaint.
If the aunt does not do well in hygiene, she should complain.

You can choose to let him go, or you can choose not to let him go.

It's not easy for everyone. You can't say that if you think it's not easy for you, you will ask others to let you go.

This is logically wrong. If you let me go, I have always only looked at the other party's wishes.

If I am willing to let it go, I will let it go, and don't brag about being kind and noble.

I don't want to let it go, so I don't want to let it go, and don't be morally kidnapped.

Li Xiao had no grievances with him, and the other party's attitude was also very low. Although it was true that he hadn't been sent in before, the matter was over and it was not a big deal.

Forget it.

After opening the car door and getting in the car, Li Xiao unbuttoned his coat and collar, and plunged into the back seat of AE86.

In the radio station, there was still a hostess with a smoky voice, talking in detail.

"Next, I will bring you a song."

"【goodbye】"

(With music, the reading environment is better)

"Those most sensational movie plots"

"It is said that love can transcend life and death"

Suddenly the phone in my hand lit up.

【You have a new Weixin reminder】

Li Xiao clicked on it, it was a message from Jiang Yingxue.

"Li Xiao, I'm sorry, I dare not tell grandpa and the others that you will have to cook at home during the Chinese New Year, after all"

Jiang Yingxue used an ellipsis at the end, but didn't say what was behind it.

However, Li Xiao understood.

Yes, what is the relationship between the two?
What relationship do you want to make that meal with?
friend?good friend?then what?
However, even if it is a good friend, what is it to ask a boy to cook at a girl's house during the Chinese New Year?
After reading the message, Li Xiao was speechless for a long time, and it started to rain outside the window.

Tick-tock on the white AE86.

The lights of the AE86 are turned on, and the mechanically driven headlights have a different retro charm.

Jiang Yingxue curled up under the blanket, looking at the phone nervously.

The long eyelashes trembled slightly, pressing the last ellipsis.

The light-white fingers stretched and stretched a few times before pressing the green send button.

She bit her nails, her mind turned a thousand times.

Although, they said, don't be so eager.

Although, they say, girls should be more reserved.

But that's just what they said.

Other people's experience is always someone else's.

Your own life, why listen to other people's dictates?
Seeing that the message was successfully sent, Jiang Yingxue's heart also rose.

Li Xiao wasn't live streaming at this point in time, to be precise, he wasn't streaming live all day.

And after 4 o'clock, even if it is a lunch break, I should have gotten up.

Sure enough, within five seconds after the message was sent, the status of the message became read.

one second,
two seconds,

three seconds,

1 minutes,

2 minutes,
Jiang Yingxue's light-white fingers were tight and loose, loose and tight.

The gray read reminder, the time that keeps beating in the upper right corner of the phone.

It made the originally warm bed become colder and colder. It turned out that the two people who thought they were in love were just wishful thinking?

Just when Jiang Yingxue's heart was about to drop to freezing point, her phone started to vibrate

"I'm just an ordinary person in the crowd"

"Inside my youth and my past"

"More timidity and low self-esteem"

"I dare not speak, dare not care"

"I don't even know who I am"

"I am as lonely as dust, like the dust in the corner"

"I always hide in the corner, inconspicuous"

"I never wanted a house and a car"

“but the sea and the sunset”

"It's the flowers that never fade in midsummer and you!"

"I don't want to, regret because I missed it"

"I don't want to, in thousands of dreams, I can't forget"

"Flowers will bloom again, summer will come again"

"But, I want to spend every midsummer with you every time the flowers bloom."

"I may meet a lot of people"

"I may encounter many things"

"But I don't want to miss you"

"I love you"

"I dare not make promises"

"Because I know that all promises can be broken"

"I just want to see the scenery I like, eat the food I want, and do the things I love with you."

"I'm just an ordinary boy"

"There Are No Wealthy Families"

"But I believe, I have confidence, and I have the ability"

"Bring you a better tomorrow."

"You are in charge of being beautiful"

"I'm in charge of earning money to support my family"

"I want to wake up and see you"

“It’s the kind you see every day”

"not a day"

"not two days"

“Not many days”

"It's every day, every day I want to"

"Would you like to be with me?"

"Do you want to be my girlfriend?"

one second,
two seconds,

three seconds,

1 minutes,

The information changes from green unread to gray read one by one.

Li Xiao also became nervous.

I don't even know what I'm doing.

When you are excited, you can say what is in your heart, what you think in your heart,

Throwing it out all at once, seeing that the last message has also become gray read.

He held his breath, and he regretted it a little.

Some of these words are not right.

Especially when I wake up and see you, will it be too straightforward.

It was all due to Douyin's big data push, and Li Xiao even suspected that Douyin had hijacked his mobile phone.

After knowing the death of Xingzhisuke, I have been in a bad mood, and the style of Douyin that I saw while hiding in the bed at night has all changed.

From the original XXXXXX, it has all become the push of some copywriting, and the cover of some old songs.

Emotions were constantly enhanced, rendered, and brewed, so that he, who originally only wanted to watch two videos before going to bed, went to more than 3 o'clock.

It wasn't until the phone hit his face that Li Xiao had no choice but to turn off the phone that was about to die.

2 minutes,

3 minutes,

Li Xiao's heart began to sink, and there was no reply for so long.

Sure enough, he was too straightforward, did he scare Jiang Yingxue?
The sound of tick-tock rain outside the car became louder and louder, and the light became increasingly dim.

On the radio, the hostess’ voice sounded again,

Intermittent music came to the ear again
(With music, the reading environment is better)

"The way to lose someone is to get too close"

"Then let's be fair"

"You come to me, I stand firm on you"

"If you're happy, it's okay to forget about me"

"Where we can"

"Please be kind to yourself"
