I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 273 Winter is like summer

There are only two residential communities within a two-mile radius of North China Normal University, one is AllBright Apartment and the other is Baoyu Community.

Therefore, there are many teachers and students from North China Normal University living in these two communities, but more students choose AllBright City, because most of AllBright City has small apartments of 60 to 90 square meters, the houses are older, and the rent and housing prices are also cheaper. Some.

Baoyu Community has regular housing types ranging from 90 to 150. The houses are relatively new and the community is better built. House prices and rents are naturally more expensive. Therefore, there are relatively few students from Beijing Normal University renting in Baoyu Community, but there are at least two. units.

Of course, there are definitely only a handful of second-generation rich people like Miss Xu who choose to buy a house directly, but as far as Li Peifeng knows, he has many old acquaintances renting and living here, such as Yao Xun, a young rich woman majoring in music. The other party seems to live in Building 1, which is the predecessor of Building 2.

One time, Li Peifeng went out and was seen by Yao Xun, who mentioned it in the [School Beauty Concentration Camp], but... why was Yi Meng here too?

The long-haired black guy wearing a short down jacket next to her is Yao Xun, right? Are the two of them walking together?

"Hi~"

Li Peifeng was confused, so he took two steps closer without delay and waved to say hello: "Two classmates, can you still recognize me?"

Seeing his partner approaching the beautiful woman, the delivery boy also became more energetic. He adjusted his goggles and stepped to follow.

Most people wear protective clothing, masks, and goggles, and even their parents may not be able to tell if they don't make a sound.

But Li Peifeng's height was very eye-catching, and He Yimeng could tell it from afar. At this time, he was even more sure when he heard his voice. He stopped, and his face under the mask seemed to be smiling: "I haven't seen you for a long time. Do you think I will just wear a vest?" Don’t recognize you? But who is this?”

Yao Xun didn't speak, just nodded slightly as a greeting, and didn't even take off his mask. His beautiful eyebrows were lightly frowned, and his pair of almond-shaped eyes, besides being cold, also revealed a hint of worry.

"Lu Ren, volunteer."

The delivery boy announced his name and then said nothing. Li Peifeng asked: "Why are you here? I remember you don't live in the dormitory?"

"The founding location of [True Love] Psychological Counseling Studio is set to be here."

He Yimeng sighed softly, pulled Yao Xun forward slowly, pointed to a garage in Building 1, and explained to Li Peifeng: "That's the garage in No. 3, I plan to transform it into a consulting room Room. Originally I wanted to set the location in AllBright City, where the rent is cheaper, but since you invested in me, I chose this place because the income level of the residents in Baoyu Community is higher than that of AllBright City, and the potential customers of the consulting studio are also More."

Li Peifeng glanced at the closed garage and other examples of garages transformed into supermarkets, grocery stores, lottery stations and other small retail units. He nodded and did not ask He Yimeng why he didn't rent a serious retail unit. .

Otherwise, it is too expensive, and psychological counseling rooms are not like restaurants or milk tea shops. They need to be opened in commercial areas with huge traffic to attract customers. Psychological counseling is highly private, and if it is set up on a busy street, it will make people embarrassed to go in. It is very wise to open it like this in a community.

"I also rented the first floor above the garage. I plan to live there in the future and let my shooting team work upstairs. There are visitors who come downstairs to the garage to chat, but there are no visitors. I am thinking of jokes upstairs. , shoot videos, and do live broadcasts.”

He Yimeng said: "So, from now on, this place will be regarded as a branch of 'Trinity'. I discussed this matter with Sister Yue, and she agreed. As long as we go to the 'headquarters' every week to have a meeting to strengthen Just communicate. She drove me here just now. We looked at the house together. She went to your house to eat while I cleaned up here... didn't she tell you? "

Maybe it's not enough time...

Li Peifeng coughed dryly: "No, it's pretty good, but now that the lockdown is in place, the renovation of the [True Love] studio has to be put on hold."

"Yes." He Yimeng frowned and said: "And I haven't had time to move into the house I just rented. I don't have the bedding or clothes, and there is no food, oil, rice or noodles at home. Fortunately, Yao Xun and I live in the same building, and she can lend me some free mattresses. , otherwise I would have trouble sleeping today."

Li Peifeng pondered: "If you can ask your roommate to bring it to you, I can help you pick it up."

He Yimeng glanced at the work badge hanging on his chest, nodded and said, "You also signed up as a volunteer? Thank you very much."

Yao Xun sighed softly: "But we haven't eaten yet."

Li Peifeng vaguely remembered that Yao Xun was also a non-commercial person. He usually ordered takeout and went to restaurants. Although he rented a house but did not open a fire, he might not have much leftover food, rice, oil and salt at home, so he said: "I think the community seems to be well prepared." I bought some bread and milk at the property office, and I’ll ask them when they will distribute it later.”

Yao Xun nodded: "Thank you."

He Yimeng pinched the mask on the tip of his nose tighter and said as if he was joking: "You really have the heart to let us two eat bread? What did you and Sister Yue eat? Can't you invite us upstairs to try it?" "

That will be a good fruit for you to eat.

Li Peifeng lamented endlessly, and told about the three guests at home, and said that he was also powerless, which surprised He Yimeng: "Besides Sister Yue, there are two more? I heard her say that Xu Manying was on a business trip, wasn't she? Who are those two?"

"My mentor, and a friend you haven't met."

He Mengyin realized something, and his eyes were sympathetic: "No wonder you want volunteers, because you are afraid of this sudden blockade, but there are several more guests at home."

The three of them walked forward while chatting. In the blink of an eye, there was a long queue at the nucleic acid test entrance. Lu Ren, the fat takeaway guy who had been following them and disappeared silently, suddenly appeared from the property office and walked towards the three of them, holding his hand. He carried two plastic bags in his pocket, which contained food and drinks such as bread, milk, ham sausage, mineral water, and instant noodles.

"This is our share."

Lu Ren poked Li Peifeng and said loudly: "Give my share of the benefits to volunteers to your friends. They didn't eat at night, but I can still get them tomorrow."

After saying that, I handed one bag to Li Peifeng and the other to Yao Xun.

He's a warm-hearted and nice guy, but you fucking stole my part, you know...

Yao Xun was quite surprised: "Thank you, brother."

Li Peifeng was also slightly taken aback, and then handed his bag of supplies to He Yimeng: "You all keep it for food, I still have some food at home."

He Yimeng didn't take the bag. He looked away from the mobile phone screen, looked in the direction of the property management office, and thought thoughtfully: "Are there any benefits? How did the volunteers sign up?"

"You want to sign up too?" Yao Xun reminded, "Not only is it dangerous, but it's also tiring."

He Yimeng was helpless: "You don't have food in your house. My house is cleaner. He has three more mouths in his house, so he can't count on them. So if I don't volunteer, what will we eat? The community can at most distribute some rice, noodles and eggs. Pointing at those things and living for half a month? I'm afraid you're going to be depressed!"

After a while, Li Peifeng took He Yimeng to find Sister Zheng, and Baimao also became a glorious volunteer.

At first Yao Xun didn't seem to agree, but He Yimeng cleverly analyzed the many benefits and not only convinced her, Yao Xun even wanted to volunteer, but He Yimeng persuaded her to quit.

"Yimeng, you are in charge of registration at the nucleic acid point. Someone will teach you the specific operation process later..."

Sister Zheng said so, but Li Peifeng interrupted: "Sister Zheng, can you let Yimeng patrol with me?"

"Because there may be some lesbians and elderly people who can't help but go downstairs for a walk. It's not easy for me to persuade them to go back. Yi Meng is a little girl. She is more approachable and the effect is better. What do you think? ?”

Sister Zheng took a closer look at Li Peifeng, and then looked at He Yimeng who was standing right next to her. She seemed to understand something, and suddenly laughed and said: "So you are... It's okay, it just so happens that you have one article and one article." Wu, it's not tiring to work with a man and a woman. Then let's form a team for now, call Lu Ren, and I'll arrange some other work for him."

Sister Zheng seemed to have misunderstood something, but the two did not defend themselves.

"Okay, thank you."

Ever since, Li Peifeng changed his partner, walked out of the office to say hello to Lu Ren, and said hello to Yao Xun, and the two of them went on patrol...

"No need to do nucleic acid?"

"You can change your clothes and work with me first. You can wait until most people in Building 1 have finished doing the nucleic acid test, otherwise you will still be queuing here."

"Then go change in the corridor."

The two entered Corridor No. 1. Li Peifeng stood at the door and acted as a doorkeeper. He Yimeng, wearing protective clothing inside, joked: "Seriously, why do you want to change partners when you are so good? Is it because they give us food?" Are you jealous?"

"You think too much."

"I think it's a good job to do nucleic acid registration in the house. It's winter. Patrolling with you in the middle of the night is tiring, cold and boring."

Li Peifeng turned his back to her and rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "It was obviously you who deliberately pulled me down, okay? If you don't want to be with me and think the registration work is easier, then let's go back to Sister Zheng now Say it and you can go back to your house."

"I'm just kidding you, why are you angry..."

He Yimeng changed his clothes, put on a mask and goggles, and then patted his back: "Let's go, Xiao Zhuanfeng, let's go on patrol."

But just as he left the door, He Yimeng's cell phone rang, and the caller was Wu Wenyue.

It seemed that Boss Wu finally remembered that his actors were probably trapped in this community, so he expressed concern.

"Do you have nothing? What is the most lacking thing right now? You can have someone deliver it to the gate of the community. Li Peifeng will be a volunteer, and I will ask him to pick it up for you."

"No need." He Yimeng glanced at Li Peifeng and said with a smile: "I have also signed up as a volunteer, and I have a classmate who also lives here. With her and me, we don't have to worry about basic life."

"Oh? That's pretty good!"

Wu Wenyue felt relieved and talked about some work issues. The general idea was that even if the community was blocked, she should try not to delay the video shooting. She could have a remote meeting with the behind-the-scenes staff to discuss the script, decide on the content and shoot it herself with a camera, etc. .

He Yimeng agreed and said that he would contact the team in the evening to determine the shooting content of the first video and get his video account on track as soon as possible, and then hung up the phone.

"Why didn't you say you were on my team?"

Li Peifeng raised his head and looked at his home in Building 2, feeling a little lucky in his heart. If Wu Wenyue knew about this, he would be in trouble again.

"Didn't that sell you?!"

He Yimeng said calmly: "And tell Sister Yue, she will inevitably think too much. I have just joined the job, and I don't want to cause trouble. Let's team up with you today. I will ask my roommate to deliver my luggage later, in the name of patrol. It’s also convenient to pick up. After picking up your luggage, I’ll listen to the community’s arrangements tomorrow. I’ll do whatever work the community asks me to do. When I’m separated from you, don’t be reluctant to leave me.”

"Mengmeng, please don't say that. I wish I could stay away from you to avoid misunderstanding..."

Li Peifeng said to himself that he has three ancestors upstairs, how can I have the time to talk about love with you?

He Yimeng chuckled and said, "Oh, I've already misunderstood. That Sister Zheng, and Yao Xun, why do you think she doesn't let me be a volunteer? Seeing that I insist on being a volunteer, she still wants to join me? Isn't it just for you?"

"Sister Zheng did misunderstand, but Yao Xun, I feel that you are overthinking it. She and I were all four years ago. This is the first time I met her after I went to graduate school. Now it's more... Strangers are better.”

"Can you say this?"

"I'm so unfamiliar. Didn't you see that she just nodded at me when we met just now?"

"That's because Yao Xun is shy! As soon as we walked out of the corridor, she recognized you immediately and asked me to confirm. Now you actually say that your relationship is only better than that of strangers?"

Li Peifeng sighed: "Then what do you want me to say? You want me to narcissistically think that wearing protective clothing does not affect my appearance, but looks more handsome. I don't need to do anything. Can be noticed. Yao Xun loves me to death. Four years have passed, and his affection for me has not faded with time but has become deeper. I don't care about it. Am I a complete scumbag? "

He Yimeng was slightly surprised and turned around to look at him carefully: "Shuai is indeed handsome, handsome is strange, handsome makes no sense... But Peifeng, you are a little anxious, are you in trouble? Are you worried about the epidemic, or are you worried about the epidemic at home? How many extra people are there?”

Li Peifeng changed the topic: "I'm thinking, how about we clean up your garage recently, just do it briefly and it can accommodate people. If the community is closed, the residents inside will definitely not be in a good mood. You You can try to provide them with psychological assistance. Getting familiar with them will be good for future studio business, and the community will definitely support them."

He Yimeng smiled: "It's not impossible, but why not start with you first?"

"Have you forgotten the principle of not talking to acquaintances?"

"It's not a consultation, just a casual chat."

He Yimeng's tone was casual. He accidentally saw a shared bicycle in front of Building 4. His eyes lit up and he patted Li Peifeng: "I'm tired from walking, so you can take me on a bicycle."

Li was not very happy: "How ambiguous. Who said you should keep a distance from me just now?"

"Then I'll ride and you go."

He Yimeng walked to the bicycle regardless, and Li Peifeng could only agree, choosing to ride a bicycle to carry people instead of watching her ride on foot.

The patrol duo now have a means of transportation - a shared bicycle!

"Too bad...it's not summer."

The cold wind in the early winter night was still a bit cold. Although He Yimeng wore a lot of clothes and wore goggles on his head, and his whole body was wrapped tightly, the gloves on his hands were made of medical rubber, a thin layer, and Not windproof.

"The sparrows outside the window are talking too much on the telephone poles. If you say this, it feels like summer..."

Li Peifeng rode his bicycle, hummed a few lines of a song, and then suddenly asked: "What about now? Does it feel like summer?"

He Yimeng didn't answer. He retracted his open hands and put them around Li Peifeng's waist. He looked up at the stars that were not bright in the night sky and said softly: "Continue."

"It rained all night long, and my love overflowed like rain. The fallen leaves in the yard were thick with my thoughts. Even a few words of right and wrong could not cool down my passion..."

One was riding a bicycle and singing softly, while the other was sitting in the back seat watching residents on other floors in the community to see if they were going downstairs without authorization. The two had different thoughts.

[I hate the night, I hate the winter, I hate being banned, but it would be nice if I could sit on the back seat of his bicycle like this all the time. 】

That's right, Li Peifeng accidentally discovered that the skill [Heart to Heart] can also hear He Yimeng's voice, which is understandable.

It's hard to say how much so-called 'love' there is between two people, but it's impossible to say that there's no emotion between men and women at all.

The number of times He Yimeng shouted to keep distance from Li Peifeng doubled the number of heartbeats.

Li Peifeng read "Qian Fan" and once really wanted to fall in love with her, but was calmly rejected by He Yimeng. If he said that he had no regrets about this in his heart, it would be a lie.

"Why don't you sing?"

Why Mengfei Li Peifeng fell silent halfway through the song, so I asked.

Li Peifeng seems to be feeling emotional: "I can't sing all the dreams of rise and fall, and I can't play all the sad sighs. The music doesn't express my feelings, and I don't want to sing anymore."

"Then tell me about the difficulties you encountered."

He Yimeng smiled and said, "If you tell me, maybe I can help you with some ideas."

"I have no difficulty!"

Li Peifeng immediately denied it, then hesitated a little, slowed down the bike, and stopped the bike with his left foot on the ground. Then he turned back and said hesitantly: "I was just imagining a new book recently. The theme is a harem novel. The protagonist will have many girlfriends." . But I have never thought about how to write it so that it can be more reasonable and let the heroines accept this kind of relationship. I am a little stuck, so it is very annoying... Do you have any good ideas? "

He Yimeng stared at him seriously, and after a moment, he said slowly: "I don't recommend you to write this kind of book, a harem book? It will make you angry! And it will definitely make you miserable!"

Just talk, what are you going to do with gritted teeth? !

Li Peifeng coughed dryly: "This protagonist has nothing to do with this author, don't make random associations!"

"Absolutely not."

He Yimeng sneered and said: "I also wish a certain Kawen author to get stuck to the end!"
