Chapter 5 Meet again

It is easy to fall asleep when people are preoccupied with things.

As soon as Lu Xiangyang lay down, he felt tired and didn't want to move.

He stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, and the lights were on.When he just took a shower, the bathroom was full of water vapor, and the mirror was foggy, showing the wound on his forehead indistinctly.

I haven't been this embarrassed for a long time.

Fighting was commonplace for Lu Xiangyang when he was a child.My father owed a lot of debts, my mother was an alcoholic, and every day the wine bottles and ash were piled up at home.From time to time, someone came downstairs, holding a wooden stick and a water pipe, banging on the door hard, threatening to break the legs of his family members.

He also has a sister.

The girl was so frightened that she cried, every time Lu Xiangyang took out the stool leg fixed for fighting, and went downstairs to fight with them.

Children from poor families tend to mature precociously.The same goes for Lu Xiangyang.

He calculated in his heart, it has been two years since he left home, and if it takes a little longer, he might forget a little more.

But when he looked in the mirror tonight, through the hazy water mist, Lu Xiangyang saw in a daze that the look in the corners of his eyes and bridge of nose was his mother's appearance.

The picture in Lu Xiangyang's mind suddenly became clear, as if the dust on the photo was wiped clean in one go.

"Fuck." Lu Xiangyang kicked the quilt away to prevent himself from thinking about it, "It's useless."

He always felt that his mother was amazing.Women in that era had a lot to bear, and their family was poor. In order to support several younger brothers to study, she went to karaoke halls to dance and earn odd jobs at a young age.

At that time, there were no beauty filters, and it was all on my own.Despite this, his mother is still sharp and flamboyantly beautiful, like a begonia blooming high on a branch.Lu Xiangyang's appearance advantages are actually all thanks to her, but he also added his father's contribution, but it was obviously a hindrance, and instead made Lu Xiangyang a lot gentler.

The mother soon mixed up in the karaoke bar, and was spotted by a small business owner, who was his father.But after getting married, his father learned to gamble in the business field not long after the couple lived in love.

From that day on, his home was gone, noisy, and never saw the light of day.

How could he not understand Xiao Hua?Lu Xiangyang thought vaguely, that's how he got here.

He suddenly remembered his wound, and stretched out his hand to touch it. The wound was a little tight, and there were signs of scabbing, and a few strands of broken hair were scattered on his face.

Zhou Xi told him not to drench him before leaving, but he still resolutely washed his hair.First, his hair was stained with blood, and it was unbearably dirty. There was another reason that he couldn't explain clearly.When washing his hair, the water flowed warmly against the back of his neck and flowed down his back to his heels.

Lu Xiangyang was very uncomfortable.

He seemed to be cared for.

This man was blatant, telling him like a child that the wound should not touch water.

But wash it all.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt uneasy, and raised his hand to touch it, not knowing what to verify.

Unexpectedly, the touch didn't matter, something hot and scalding immediately flowed down the side of his face.Lu Xiangyang naturally wiped it with his hand, and wiped off the bright red color in his hand.

The blood began to flow unstoppably, covering his hands, legs, and covering his whole body.

His whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"--what!"

Lu Xiangyang forcefully choked out a short cry from his chest, the voice pulled him back from the scarlet world instantly like a life-saving straw.

He struggled to open his eyes, rolled over and sat up.

The lights in the house are still on, the bedding is clean, the walls are white, the rain outside the window has stopped, the sky seems to be awake, and the world is as peaceful as ever.

The wound was scabbed over and there was no blood.

It's a nightmare.

Lu Xiangyang was stunned for a long time, sitting on the bed not wanting to move, he shouted hoarsely: "Tianmeow spirit?"

"I'm here. You say."

Tianmeow Elf is the only electronic device at home that can answer him.The red artificial intelligence speaker is small in size and is placed on the coffee table in the living room.

Lu Xiangyang asked, "What time is it?"

I have to sigh that the current science and technology are quite good. It’s just such a small thing. After connecting to the Internet, it can tell the time, control the smart home, and tell jokes while chatting.

Tianmeow Elf replied: "It's 6:30 in the morning, good morning, Mr. Lu, a beautiful day has begun again!"

Lu Xiangyang struggled feebly and moved: "Good shit. Turn off the lights."

The lamp did not move.

The Tianmeow elf should only listen to the half of it, and it said happily: "Mr. Lu, I guess, you want a lot of farts, please answer yes or no?"

"……what?"

It was the first time Lu Xiangyang heard this kind of answer, and he couldn't turn his mind for a while.

What function is this updated?

"Okay, received." Tianmiao ignored him and continued, "Then you listen carefully, puff-puff-puff~puff..."

"Damn it! This is mentally handicapped!" Lu Xiangyang was dumbfounded, he got up and shouted amidst the vivid and indescribable voices that filled the room, "Heavenly Meow! Heavenly Meow Elf! Shut up!"

What had been a bad day was now even worse.

Xiaohua doesn't come today, he's the only one in the store.In addition to ordering a cake, Lu Xiangyang also had to repair the door.

He couldn't sleep or eat early in the morning, so he simply brought a tool box from home to the store.The shop originally opened at 09:30 was forced to open at [-]:[-] today.

It was still early, and there were only a few scattered shops on the street.Sunflower is facing the direction of the street corner, and there are two parking spaces just in front of the store.Lu Xiangyang didn't have a car, so Sister Qingqing usually used it.Her car was not there today, and there was another black car parked in the parking space, and it was not clear whose it belonged to.

Boss Lu withdrew his eyes and yawned tiredly.

The phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

He took it out and saw that it happened to be a message from Sister Qingqing.Qingqing's profile picture is a photo of her traveling by herself, and she took it very freely.

Qingqing flower shop: Xiaolu Xiaolu, Huahua is with me.

Holding the screwdriver in one hand, Lu Xiangyang replied to her with one hand: OK, where are you going?

Qingqing quickly sent a selfie.

Lu Xiangyang clicked to look at it. In the photo, Xiao Hua was sitting in Qingqing's co-pilot, with snack bags and a few bottles of soda piled up beside her. The two of them stood in front of the camera, making a V comparison.

Xiaohua smiled sweetly, as if what happened last night no longer existed.

Qingqing Huadian: I took Xiaohua girl to the beach to play.

Before Lu Xiangyang replied, Qingqing sent another message: I will accompany her to visit her mother later.

It seems that neither of them will come here today.

Lu Xiangyang replied a good word to her.

Or girls know girls best.Xiaohua has only been here for two weeks, and she has become one with all the beauties and sisters in the flower shop. She can share a cup of milk tea, so she almost left him to help others.

When he put down his mobile phone, a person happened to pass by the door with a bag. When the person looked up, the eyes of the two met coincidentally.Boss Lu suddenly sat up straight.

"Zhou, Zhou Xi?!"

Zhou Xi was also very depressed.

Sunflower's store door clearly says "open from 9:30-18:30".Before he left last night, he took a special look at it, thinking that he would sneak the car home while he came early.

I didn't expect to bump into each other face to face.

Accidents will happen.

"Morning." Zhou Xi put the car keys back in his pocket calmly, "Repair the door?"

"Yes, the lower door clamp is loose, and the screws need to be replaced." Lu Xiangyang stood up and patted his pants, "I have to find a piece of cloth to support the glass door before removing it. I'm afraid it will crack if I can't support it."

"Let me help you." Zhou Xi said as he put down the computer bag on his hand, "You change it."

Lu Xiangyang glanced at him hesitantly: "It's not that fast. Are you not going to work?"

"I work on the move, I can do it anywhere." Zhou Xi looked at him and shrugged, "The network at home is down, so I went out to find a coffee shop to catch a glimpse of the network."

This kind of glass door is not easy to repair, and it is generally necessary to find a special installer to deal with it.But it was not difficult for Lu Xiangyang.When I was young, my parents quarreled and smashed everything, but I couldn't afford to replace it with new ones.Lu Xiangyang fumbled for sewing, repairing and disassembling by himself, and finally practiced his good home rescue skills.

Probably the most difficult thing he ever repaired was an old-fashioned music box.

Zhou Xi held on to the glass door, looking down, he could just see his hand twisting the screwdriver, somehow he thought of his tightly clenched fists when fighting.Lu Xiangyang's hands are more beautiful than most people's, with slender knuckles, clear meridians float up when he exerts force, and have a wild texture.

"There's only forest coffee around here, right? There are a lot of people going to surf the Internet." Lu Xiangyang collected the replaced screws and installed new screws in. Open."

Zhou Xi let out a sigh of melancholy. He originally wanted to drive to the city center.

"I also have internet here. If you are in a hurry, you can use it first." Lu Xiangyang said, "There is no one in the store today, so sit wherever you want."

When people are unlucky, they can't even get out of the community.

With Zhou Xi's help, the speed doubled, and the job of repairing the door was over early.It's just that Boss Lu suffered from obsessive-compulsive disorder, and kept squatting on the ground to adjust the closing speed of the floor spring. Zhou Xi helped him push and pull back and forth outside the door to test, opening and closing, opening and closing.

The courier brother delivered the goods back and forth several times, and every time he passed by, he saw two people tossing the door.When delivering goods to the flower shop, he couldn't bear it anymore. He stopped and pulled the windshield of his motorcycle helmet away, and shouted, "Boss Lu!"

Lu Xiangyang is very familiar with my brother.The courier boy has a very good personality and enthusiasm. He gets along well with the neighbors, and everyone calls him Brother Shun.

"Hey." Lu Xiangyang poked his head out from behind the door, "Brother Shun, do you have my package?"

"Yes, the warehouse is almost full. I'll send these large items away first." Brother Shun said, "You are a small item. I will bring it for you in the afternoon."

Zhou Xi was shocked.

He only heard slut, and the word bounced back and forth in his mind like a highlight.

Lu Xiangyang cursed back fluently: "Screw you little thing."

Brother Shun laughed. He poked his head and moved the motorcycle forward. Only then did he notice that Boss Lu had an injury on his head. He asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"I accidentally let the little girl kiss me last night." Lu Xiangyang tightened the screws, stood up and pushed the door out, he leaned on the door frame and smiled triumphantly, "Believe it or not?"

Zhou Xi was shocked again silently in his heart.

"Fuck, you knocked on the door, right? It took me so long to fix it." Brother Shun laughed at him, then looked over at Zhou Xi, "Who is this?"

Boss Lu raised his chin: "I'm a customer."

Zhou Xi nodded to him politely.

"I haven't seen it before, new customer." Brother Shun didn't forget to solicit a wave of business for Boss Lu before leaving, "Friend, let me tell you, Boss Lu's food is delicious, and someone entrusts our site to send it to you." Overseas!"

Zhou Xi coughed suddenly and adjusted his glasses: "Okay, I will definitely come here often."

When Lu Xiangyang heard about it for the first time, he was stunned for a moment: "Which country is it?"

"America! Sent several times." Brother Shun pulled down the windshield, and the motorcycle engine hummed suddenly. He was afraid that Lu Xiangyang would not hear him, so he spoke louder and louder, "It was sent by your landlord Aunt Xu, and I received it. pieces!"

Zhou Xi's heart was overwhelmed, and he wished that the courier brother would say a few words less.But he still raised his hand in a very timely manner and waved to Brother Shun: "Go slowly."

Brother Shun left, but Lu Xiangyang was still shaking his head in surprise: "Oh my God, Aunt Xu actually has relatives in the United States..."

Zhou Xi stood beside him, and immediately heard Boss Lu's second sentence with emotion: "My craftsmanship has gone overseas..."

"It's been a long time since I've tasted Boss Lu's craftsmanship." Zhou Xi once again showed his lack of skills here, and he pretended to be sorry, "If there is a chance, I will..."

"Then, let's have lunch." Lu Xiangyang opened the door with a smile, and said to Zhou Xi, "Go into the house. I don't have much work today, so I should make a meal and eat together?"

The author says:

It was worse than Zhou Xi today.I ordered a takeaway and filled in the wrong address... The delivery boy ate it.Very hungry now.

PS: Oh, Zhou Xi can’t even get out of Boss Lu’s door (?`?Д?′)
