Save the picky eater

ten o'clock sharp

Zheng Shaoli stepped into the 'taste'.

The boss was still standing behind the bar, and the clerk and the old couple were still listening to the radio, laughing from time to time.

The lights in the store are still warm and yellow, and the wind chimes are still blown by the wind.

Zheng Shaoli inexplicably relaxed the tense back muscles.

"Yo, are you coming?"

"Ah."

"What do you want to eat today?"

"casual."

The familiar conversation made them look at each other, and he couldn't help but look away with those eyes curved like the moon.

Outside the window was a silvery glow, gentle and lingering. In front of it, this old street was like his dream.

"Yo, isn't this little fresh meat?"

The sudden old voice broke the dream at the moment, Zheng Shaoli turned his head, the old lady pushed the old man, stood still in front of him, and said in a flat and soft tone, "Thank you sir for helping me last time."

The polite manner made Zheng Shaoli nod to her as well.

The old man laughed from the side, "I'm a vulgar person and I can't say those sour words, just one sentence, if you see a woman being beaten, is it still a man if you don't make a move? You're good, little fresh meat!"

One is foreign and one is native, one is polite and dignified, and the other is hippie smiling.

Two people with completely different temperaments stand together, but there is an unexpected and amazing harmony.

It's just that Zheng Shaoli, who is used to reticence, was a little overwhelmed by the two people who were too enthusiastic.

The exaggerated praise made him give birth to such an absurd exclamation that he thought he 'saved the world'.

Li Qianxiu looked at the wall clock, and smiled at the sixty-year-old handsome group who continued to use exaggerated rhetorical techniques to praise the moral standard of 'helping others', "It's very late, if you don't go back, the dean will come out to arrest people."

Ms. Chen turned her head to look at the clock, screamed, grabbed the old man who was still chatting and walked quickly to the door.

Zheng Shaoli breathed a sigh of relief in a timely manner.

A glance at the acquaintance, but there is a hint of tacit understanding.

After Xiao Ke went to deliver food, there were only two people left in the store.

Zheng Shaoli simply sat by the bar, his eyes fell on the succulents on the side of the bar, and there was an orchid.

He does not grow flowers, and this kind of work that requires meticulous care does not have much effect on self-cultivation for him, but his grandfather loves to grow flowers.

This orchid grows crookedly, and the leaves hang on the succulents one after another. It is a little lazy, but also has a cool and unrestrained style of "unconventional way" that seems familiar.

Zheng Shaoli looked at it for a while before realizing why it was 'deja vu'.

Li Qianxiu raised his eyebrows, "What?"

He shook his head, but still felt that the flowers followed the owner.

There's always something funny about it.

"Can I eat bitter melon?"

Zheng Shaoli looked at Li Qianxiu silently for a while, and then said for a long time, "What is bitter melon?"

Li Qianxiu,...

Why so serious?

The attributes of returnees made his rigor a little cute. Li Qianxiu held back his smile and thought about explaining, "Vegetables that can clear away heat and reduce fire."

Zheng Shaoli thought about it seriously, and said with a wooden face, "Yes."

The contrast was so cute that Li Qianxiu couldn't help but smile and glance at him, and then again.

His weird smile made Zheng Shaoli slightly self-doubt about the decision, but he didn't know how to express it. He could only watch in silence as Li Qianxiu quickly cut the weird and ugly green vegetables into cylinder shapes.

"Last time... I'm sorry." His tone was as flat as water.

Zheng Shaoli was stiff for a moment, and disappeared in an instant.

No matter what the woman's experience was, in fact, his attitude towards that woman was really not decent.

The humiliating action even threw the man's demeanor into a corner.

"why?"

The person who apologized should not be Li Qianxiu.

He bent his eyes, quickly and neatly worked on the chopping board in his hand, and absently spit out the sharp words, "You hate the third party."

Zheng Shaoli focused his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Yes."

Li Qianxiu shrugged, "Shouldn't I apologize for asking you to accompany me to save a third party you hate the most?"

He didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment.

Seeing more sympathetic and curious eyes, and self-righteous thoughtfulness, but actually digging up bloody wounds like paparazzi, I can't wait to get into the wound to see clearly and satisfy my own right and wrong.

Just stops everywhere.

As if I just remembered it by accident, and expressed my apology casually.

The soup in the pot was gurgling and steaming, blurring Li Qianxiu's lines again and again.

It concealed a little bit of his heart very well. For the first time, he was also surprised and flattered to be treated like this.

It's like the warm yellow lights above the head are much brighter.

"boom!"

The store door was kicked open, and Sister Hua stumbled in with a bottle of red wine.

The smell of alcohol all over her body and her red cheeks already indicated that she was not much sanity left.

Li Qianxiu frowned, and was about to speak, but was interrupted.

Sister Hua's gorgeous facial features also rendered a bit desolate under the tears and embarrassment.

"Why...they are all like this, they say they love me, they say they love me!"

Zheng Shaoli was a little impatient to hear a woman go berserk, but remembering that there was a little rabbit at home, he could only endure it, frowning and urging Li Qianxiu in a low voice, "I'll take it away, thank you."

Li Qianxiu nodded, knowing that he didn't like it, and prepared with his hands flying.

Sister Hua collapsed on the bar counter, muttering to herself, "I know you all hate me, I'm a mistress, I'm a mistress, I destroy other people's families, but what can I do, my younger brother has to go to school, my parents are in poor health No, Qi Ze said that he would love me, love me, and treat my parents and brother well, that woman is so rich, why would she just refuse to give Qi Ze to me. "

"I also have difficulties, why can't you all see my difficulties."

In the confrontation a few days ago, she thought it was her who fought side by side with her love, but she didn't expect that she was stabbed severely by love at the end of her life.

Wang Qize's wife only talked to her for 15 minutes, but she was killed from the inside out.

Maybe it was because Wang Qize behaved so well at the beginning, and the various love scenes with her made her believe too much in the relationship between them. How much she believed in their love, the knife on her deathbed was as vicious as it was.

"Xiaohua, I love you, but, but... Yes, she asked someone to beat you, but even though she asked someone to beat you, it's too shameful for you to be photographed naked, If this video is released by her, where will I put my face? You know, men are most afraid of losing face. Besides, my son just knows how to call Dad. How can I let him become a single-parent family not long after he was born? What about you? You are still young, and there are plenty of opportunities. You two are just a flash in the pan. Didn’t people say that you will be more hardworking after breaking up? I won’t forget it, so that’s it.”

After finishing speaking, the man in suit and leather shoes stood up, glanced guiltily at Sister Hua who was already stunned, and hurriedly chased after her.

Mrs. Wang did not take away the divorce agreement with a blank signature column, nor did she take away the mobile phone that kept playing the video of Sister Hua being beaten in a loop.

The two things, like their husband and wife, stayed there quietly.

Laugh at her stupidity.

"I'll be with him when he's sad, and I'll be with him when he's happy. Where's his wife? She doesn't know what to say all day long. She doesn't look like his wife at all. She quarrels without saying a word to him. The identity with background oppresses him, no one knows his suffering, only I know, if it wasn't because that woman is rich, how could he abandon me!"

"She is rich, but that man dare not not listen to her, what can you do."

Indifferent words are like a sharp sword piercing the armor she imagined for herself.

Sister Hua's face turned blue immediately, and she was about to jump up holding the wine bottle, "What did you say!"

Zheng Shaoli snorted lightly, he was not a mild-tempered person, but when he got serious, he was even more arrogant and hostile, making people afraid to speak.

"How much do you think the four taels of meat in your breast are worth?"

"you……"

"You are the only one who knows his suffering, and you are the only one who is with him. You played the role of a good wife perfectly."

"To shut up!"

All around was quiet, only Zheng Shaoli's mocking voice remained, "But you are not in the name of his wife to accompany him to suffer, not in the name of his wife to accompany him to laugh, you are in the name of a third party, you will always be the first in this life. In the name of the three."

"I told you to shut up!"

His half-smile eyes seemed to be watching a joke.

"Even if you are pregnant with his child, that child is the child of a third party, an illegitimate child! He will be the son of Xiaosan for the rest of his life!"

"Snapped!"

Sister Hua gasped heavily, her legs were so weak that she could hardly stand up, "I, I'm not, I'm not!"

Almost subconsciously, she threw out what could be used as a weapon in her hand.

She stumbled and ran out, trying to shake off the shackles on her back, and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.

When he came back to his senses, the smell of wine permeated the entire store in an instant.

Li Qianxiu turned down the fire, walked out from behind the bar with a frown, looked at Zheng Shaoli, who was covered in red wine stains, and said, "There are clean clothes in the dressing room at the back, I'll take you to change them first."

Zheng Shaoli said kindly.

The two walked towards the back room in silence.

He tugged at the shirt that was sticky on his skin from the red wine, and Li Qianxiu's thoughtful side face made him a little restless for no reason.

He's not good at talking, let alone explaining to others, or asking 'Why are you ignoring me, are you upset? 'Such a slightly 'intimate' question.

What's more, what he said several times in front of Li Qianxiu was extremely mean.

Besides...

He and Li Qianxiu are not in an 'intimate' relationship, so why do we need to explain a lot.

Huatou is pinched in the throat, and it can't be up or down, which is annoying.

The dressing room is not too big, just an ordinary room with three rows of single wardrobes. Li Qianxiu opened one of the doors and took out a clean short-sleeve from it, "You can change it, I will first..."

He turned around while talking, Zheng Shaoli had already taken off his wet shirt.

Li Qianxiu,...

He has a good figure, with broad shoulders and a thin waist. The rough lines of his arms and shoulders outline his rigid strength. His bulging chest muscles and sculpted abdominal muscles are stretched by his movements, and his waist is tightened. The suit pants perfectly wrap a pair of long legs...

Li Qianxiu coughed unnaturally, "Here, cough, there is a door next to it, and there is a bathroom inside, you can do whatever you want."

He was muttering something to himself, and when he lowered his head and was about to go out, Zheng Shaoli took his arm.

"you……"
