Ceaseless

After the class reunion ended, Su Xi kept in touch with Yang Ji on social software.The other party asked him to go on a trip during next year's annual vacation on the mobile phone.Let's watch the League of Legends World Championship together during our next monthly vacation.After watching the game, I went back to school and ate roadside Mala Tang in the back street.Occasionally, he would talk about Shen Qingyi's matter, optimistically guessing whether the other party is still single, whether there is a possibility of falling in love with him.

Su Xi seldom talked about his own affairs. Most of the time, he was listening to Yang Ji, listening to Yang Ji planning the beautiful arrangements during the holidays, listening to Yang Ji's chatter, about his crush who still couldn't forget after two years of college graduation, this There will be another announcement and itinerary of which city to fly to within a week.

He listened so much that he occasionally felt a little anticipation and longing for the annual vacation travel in Yang Jihua, the World Finals of the League of Legends, and the Mala Tang on the roadside in winter.And amidst these quietly and wildly growing expectations and yearnings, there are also the words that Nie Jingze and the chef brother from the lobster restaurant next door said to him.

Until one day, Yang Ji asked him if he wanted to change jobs in the future.

That night, he dreamed of Nie Jingze and the chef next door.In the dream, he once again chewed and swallowed the words they had said.When he woke up in the morning, when he touched the mobile phone on the bedside of Zhong Qing, and saw that the time was showing the first day of the new week, he paused his fingers slightly, remembering Yang Ji's unintentional question the night before, and his heart was full of surprises. Really vaguely gave birth to the idea of ​​wanting to change jobs.

He sat up from the sofa bed and thought about it for a second, but he couldn't think of what kind of work he could do other than the most basic labor work.He temporarily put aside this idea that sprouted overnight, got up and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face, set up a frying pan on the stove as usual, and cooked a bowl of noodles for himself.

However, there are also places that are different from the past clear soup vermicelli.

In the bowl of noodles, he added a fried egg, a piece of ham, and fried pork with green peppers that he hadn't finished eating last night.He put the bowl of noodles on the dining table, buried his head in a bite of the fried egg, and when he looked up at the window that he had been tired of seeing day after day, he actually looked intently for a second longer.

Su Xi found that today's sky seemed to be cleaner and brighter than every day in the past two years.

After breakfast, he cleaned up the dishes neatly, went downstairs, and walked through the familiar alley to work in the hot pot restaurant.

When passing by the crayfish restaurant next door, the chef who was eating breakfast at the door bit off the meat in the buns and waved to him.

Su Xi raised his face and returned a bright smile.

The chef brother was surprised for a second, and when he came back to his senses, he raised his thick voice and said happily to him: "The crayfish I gave you for supper last time tasted good, right? I'll save some for you next time."

Following the other party's words, thinking of the box of crayfish left in Nie Jingze's car, he was silent for a second, and finally smiled sincerely: "It tastes very good, I like it very much, thank you."

The chef brother swallowed the last bit of bun skin in his hand with satisfaction, turned around and walked towards the door.

Su Xi went in through the back door of the hot pot restaurant to get his work card, while Chen Sheng was still squatting at the door smoking.When he appeared, the other party stopped him, and asked him casually in the same tone as before: "Hey, after punching the card, you and I can change the work area."

Su Xi pressed his fingerprint on the fingerprint register, looked back at him, but did not answer immediately, "Which area are you in charge of today?"

Chen Sheng took a drag on his cigarette and laughed unhurriedly, "The cleaning work of the box on the second floor."

Su Xi thought for a while, "I remember, I seem to be setting up a stage."

Chen Sheng stood up and walked towards him slowly, "You change with me. You go to clean the box, and I will help you set up the stage."

Su Xi nodded clearly, "It can be changed."

A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Chen Sheng's mouth, before he could open his mouth in time, he heard a sigh of relief: "But, why should I trade with you?"

Hearing this, Chen Sheng's expression froze slightly, and his eyes shot at him, "What did you say?"

Su Xi's expression remained unchanged, "You don't want to sweep the box, and I don't want to sweep it either. So, why should I trade with you?"

As if he didn't believe that he would refuse, Chen Sheng didn't react for a long time.After a while, the other party's complexion gradually turned blue at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he sneered, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

Su Xi didn't answer his words, and walked straight past him in the direction of the staff lounge.

Chen stood on the spot, with a pair of eyes fixed on his back, as if he wanted to see through the sudden change of temperament from the outside to the inside before giving up.A few seconds later, Su Xi's figure disappeared from his eyes.Chen Sheng lowered his eyelids, took the cigarette butt from his mouth and threw it on the ground, raised his foot to grind it vigorously, cursed a curse word in his mouth, and his eyes gradually darkened.

When serving the diners in the hall at noon, Chen Sheng still wanted to repeat his old tricks and cause Su Xi some trouble.The unexpected episode brought to him by the early morning breath still makes him unhappy.Moxi made him unhappy, so naturally he also felt unhappy.

The area assigned to Chen Sheng was the dining area for multiple people.On the left side of the front hall, there is a row of dining seats for multiple people against the wall. When the store was renovated earlier, a screen was deliberately used to separate the large round table for dining from the restaurant.It happened that employees from a nearby company came to the restaurant for a meal. One of the middle-aged men was drunk at the table, and he raised his hand at Chen Sheng inarticulately, wanting to ask him to come over and add some side dishes.

Chen Sheng glanced at the guests at the table, turned around and walked towards Su Xi who was standing on the other side, put his hand on his back, pushed him forward with moderate strength, and slightly pointed his chin towards the direction of the guests at the table, There was a little mockery in his eyes, "You go over there."

Before Su Xi could answer, he saw that there had been no service staff for a long time to respond. Impatient expressions appeared on the faces of the drunk guests, and their cloudy eyes were cast in the direction of Su Xi.

Su Xi stared at the man's eyes and walked forward, facing the drunk customer and asked formulaically: "Hello, what help do you need?"

The middle-aged man stared at Su Xi's face with a pair of dim and drunken eyes, but the color in his eyes became more and more chaotic, and he didn't speak for a long time.It wasn't until Su Xi asked for the second time that he rolled his tongue and said vaguely, "One more plate of Australian mutton rolls."

Su Xi nodded, and asked again: "May I ask what else do you need?"

"No more." The man said, waving his hands sharply.

Without noticing, the back of the opponent's hand slammed into Su Xi's wrist as he waved his hand.Su Xi avoided it without a trace, but saw that the drunk man slowly retracted his hand, then folded the back of the hand that had touched his wrist into his other palm, and rubbed it slowly.

Su Xi took a step back as usual, about to turn around and walk in the direction of the back kitchen.

Before he could take a step, a slightly chubby hand grabbed his forearm and pulled him back involuntarily.

Su Xi turned around, and when he raised his head calmly, his eyes met the flushed face of the middle-aged man with drunken eyes and slightly squinted eyes.
