One big and one small are practicing love

Chapter 38 Self-service Barbecue

Not wanting everyone to argue with each other over this matter, Liu Xiaochen collected the money and asked about the return of the suit.

Although he had Zuo Kunmin's number, Liu Xiaochen didn't want to trouble him with such a trivial matter. So I sent a message to Master Zhao, explaining the matter of sending the suit, and asked Teacher Zuo when the time would be convenient.

Master Zhao replied that Zuo Kunmin would be busy tomorrow morning and would be at home after 2 p.m.

I have made an appointment with Zhang Chengjiu, Sun Xinxin, and Yao Yuting to have a buffet barbecue at Joy City in Xidan, Beijing, at noon tomorrow.

In order to make money back, they all said they would not eat in the morning, but would eat from noon until the store closed, and then go shopping together in this big shopping mall.

Liu Xiaochen explained the matter to Gu Liya. At the end, he said apologetically: "Liya, I have to trouble you about sending the suit."

"It's not troublesome, I have nothing to do anyway." Gu Liya said, turned on the flashlight on her mobile phone, walked to Liu Xiaochen, and said with a smile: "Xiaochen, I see you haven't finished applying the medicine yet, I'll help you take care of it. .”

"Okay!" Liu Xiaochen nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you, Liya!"

Liu Xiaochen went out at around 7 o'clock in the morning on Saturday.

It was my first time to go to Xidan. I didn’t expect the traffic to be so congested. I had to wait for the bus twice before I could get on the bus. It was difficult to squeeze in on Metro Line 1. After just three stops, we arrived at a transfer station. There were so many people getting off that Liu Xiaochen was squeezed out inexplicably.

The originally planned 2-hour drive ended up taking 3 and a half hours.

When I arrived in Xidan, I contacted the three of them but could not find anyone.

The subway station they took out was exit b, and Liu Xiaochen was at exit a. The same station is far apart due to different exits, complex routes, and similar surrounding buildings. They made seven or eight phone calls for more than half an hour before they finally found each other.

They met, walked around, chatted and joked. It was past 1 o'clock when we arrived at the BIG Buffet Grill in Joy City, Xidan. There were many people waiting in line at the door, and by the time their number was called, it was almost 2 o'clock.

"If you want to use coupons, you can't pay in cash, you can only pay electronically." The cashier explained.

Liu Xiaochen held the cash in his hand and asked, "Why? Aren't all the money the same?"

"We cooperate with the platform for these coupons. Each coupon corresponds to an account. We have to reconcile with the platform and cannot use our account."

"It's okay, let's each pay our own way." Zhang Cheng said, lowering his head to operate his mobile phone. Sun Xinxin and Yao Yuting also paid with their mobile phones.

Liu Xiaochen said sheepishly: "I will give you cash later."

Zhang Cheng handed the tableware to the three girls and said, "Liu Xiaotu, give me a reasonable explanation for missing the appointment on National Day, so you don't need to treat me to this meal."

They took a lot of pork belly, beef, luncheon meat, chicken wings, and prawns, and the small white plates on the table were piled high. There were also several small plates of lettuce, fruit, pasta, and small desserts, and each received their favorite drinks. Making condiments, grilling meat, chatting while eating in a lively manner.

Liu Xiaochen drank a cup of barley tea and ate a small plate of pasta, but rarely ate it. When she came, she took care of the baking sheet, flipped it, and gave it to them. Secondly, tell the story about the National Day and answer their questions.

"Xiaoxiao, do you mean that the person who has supported you and corresponded with you over the years is Teacher Wang's husband? Is he the tall, handsome man we saw when we were children?"

"Yes!" Liu Xiaochen nodded and said, "His name is Zuo Kunmin. His appearance now is similar to what we saw when we were young, but he looks more stable and mature."

"Oh! What a pity." Sun Xinxin sighed and said in frustration: "Teacher Wang is so beautiful and good, and her husband is also handsome and outstanding. They are a match made in heaven. Why did Teacher Wang leave so early?"

"Liu Xiaotu, how's the roasted corn going? Tingting wants to eat it." Zhang Cheng pointed at the baking pan and asked.

Liu Xiaochen picked up the piece of corn and looked at it carefully under the light. The color was evenly browned and he said, "It should be ready. You can take a bite first. If it's good, give it to Tingting. If it's not done yet, I'll bake it again."

Zhang Cheng took a small bite and exclaimed: "Yeah! It's delicious." Then he handed it to Tingting, then looked at Liu Xiaochen and said: "Liu Xiaotu, although there was a reason for the incident, you couldn't contact me that afternoon. There will be so many holidays later. God, why didn’t you come to me?”

"I haven't finished speaking yet. Teacher Zuo's family has two children, only six or seven years old. Teacher Zuo has to work, and the children are not taken care of. I helped take care of the children for a few days." Liu Xiaochen said as he finished baking The meat was divided into portions and given to them.

Zhang Cheng said disdainfully: "As you said just now, Teacher Zuo's family is very rich, but they still need a childcare worker?"

"I heard from Teacher Zuo that it seems that the mother of the child's friend is helping to take care of her. She traveled abroad during the National Day. We are recruiting new nannies and teachers, and no one happens to be taking care of the child during that time." Liu Xiaochen explained.

"As for you, stay away from such nosy things in the future. Children from rich families are so delicate. If they get injured due to a bump, you can't bear the responsibility." Zhang Cheng said, wrapped two pieces of meat in lettuce and handed them over. He gave it to Liu Xiaochen and said, "It's been roasting for a long time. You should also eat some."

After taking the meat, Liu Xiaochen smiled and said, "Forgive me?"

Zhang Cheng picked up the tongs, spread the raw meat evenly on the baking sheet, and said, "Go back and write a [-]-word review for me, and I will forgive you reluctantly."

Liu Xiaochen was eating meat and couldn't speak, so he rolled his eyes at Zhang Cheng.

The waiter came over, took the tray, and offered to replace it with a new piece of oil-absorbing paper. At this time, Liu Xiaochen's cell phone rang. When he saw Teacher Zuo on the screen, Liu Xiaochen quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, signaled them to keep their voices down, and then picked up the phone.

"Hello, Teacher Zuo." Liu Xiaochen said respectfully.

"Have you finished eating with your classmates?" Zuo Kunmin said bluntly.

"Huh?" Liu Xiaochen was surprised for a moment. She didn't tell Zuo Kunmin about this, and it was hard to ask. "We're almost finished eating."

"Liu Xiaotu, give me the cumin." Zhang Cheng suddenly said loudly.

Yao Yuting patted Zhang Cheng on the shoulder and said, "Zhang Cheng, didn't you see Xiaoxiao answering the phone? Take it yourself."

"Come here after dinner." Zuo Kunmin said.

"where?"

"Home." After saying this, he paused and then said: "As soon as possible."

"Oh~ Okay." Liu Xiaochen responded blankly, and a beeping sound came from the receiver.

After hanging up the phone, the three of them looked at Liu Xiaochen who looked confused.

"Why did Teacher Zuo call you?" Zhang Cheng asked.

Liu Xiaochen shook his head, "I don't know." Liu Xiaochen then remembered that she didn't ask anything. Thinking of the word 'as soon as possible', I stood up suddenly and said, "I have to leave first." As he said that, he packed his schoolbag.

"Hey! Liu Xiaotu, are you looking for that Teacher Zuo again?" Zhang Cheng's tone became urgent.

"I will give you the [-]-word examination with both hands next time." After saying that, he picked up his schoolbag, waved goodbye to them, and left quickly.
