Chapter 16 There is time

After Qi Yue went out, Gu Zhong couldn't figure out what he meant by that sentence for a long time.

He was a little dizzy tonight, since Qi Yue said that, he has been a little dazed, and he feels that some things seem to be opened up and become clear , but my mind became confused again because of this clarity.

I was in a daze all night, feeling that I had pondered a lot, and when I came back to my senses, I didn't know what I was pondering.

Not understanding Qi Yue's words, he subconsciously glanced at Xiao Ding.

Xiao Ding smiled at him and said, "Boss is very interesting."

"Yeah..." He suddenly felt a little embarrassed, always feeling that Xiao Ding had seen something, "He... has always been very interesting."

Xiao Ding was just smiling at first, but he laughed out loud after hearing his words: "You are also very interesting."

"Ah." Gu Zhong rubbed his nose, "I think so too."

Xiao Ding smiled and took a rag to wipe the table. Sleepwalker A was sleepwalking at the cash register. Gu Zhong stood up and moved around a bit. He walked outside to have a look. Why did Qi Yue go?

serious?What are you serious about?

Now Qi Yue is very serious. Before seeing Qi Yue sitting in a daze in the corner of the turret every day, Qi Yue who decided whether to make money today was completely determined by his mood. He never thought that one day he would see Qi Yue like this.

After standing at the door for more than ten minutes, Gu Zhong didn't even think about what Qi Yue was going to do.

But I didn't intend to make a phone call.He turned around and went back to the store. Sleepwalker A was still playing with his mobile phone. Xiao Ding finished wiping the table and sat by the wall to play with his mobile phone.

He slowly went up to the second floor and opened the door of Qi Yue's room.

I don't know why he had to look back when he went in, as if he was a thief.

Qi Yue shouldn't have lived in this place for a long time, and it's not considered a mess if it hasn't been tidied up. Qi Yue doesn't spend much time here every day, so he just sleeps at night.

Now I don’t have to watch old movies, and a middle-aged and elderly person doesn’t play with their mobile phones very much, so they probably go to sleep when they lie down in the house.Then get up in the morning and do a few sets of radio gymnastics.

Gu Zhong lay down on the leather cushion, stretched out his arms and legs, and sighed in a drawn-out voice. If he wanted to open such a small noodle restaurant, he was actually quite tired after working so hard all day, and his back was stretched right now. The feeling of opening made him close his eyes comfortably.

Lower back strength.Gu Zhong smiled.Spray.

He didn't know when he fell asleep or for how long.

But because he didn't close the door of the room, he was woken up immediately when some noise came from downstairs.

Are there any guests?There was a big round clock on the ground. He glanced at it, and it showed that it was ten minutes to nine.

They closed at nine o'clock. The business here is mainly based on shoppers. There should be no customers coming at this moment. He stood up.

When he walked out of the room, Gu Zhong heard a man's voice from downstairs: "I don't care if you are going to close the door! Now we brothers want to eat!"

"I'm really sorry, our ingredients are all prepared on the same day, and there will be no more in the evening..." Xiao Ding's voice trembled, but he still explained patiently.

Running into trouble?Gu Zhong quickly trotted a few steps and went downstairs

Sleepwalker A has already left, probably leaving Xiao Ding to clean up.

At this moment, besides Xiao Ding, there were three men sitting on the first floor, each sitting at a table. Before Gu Zhong could see the faces of these people clearly, he smelled the smell of alcohol.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Xiao Ding turned his head and saw that he immediately leaned against him: "The gentlemen want to eat, but our noodles are sold out..."

"Go out and buy it for me!" a man in a black jacket roared and slapped the table.

Gu Zhong suddenly felt the smell of alcohol on his face, and felt nauseous for a while.To be honest, he has never dealt with this kind of alcoholic troublemaking situation, or even encountered it, and these few don't seem to be pure drunkards, with "We are not a fun thing" written on their faces.

He also has no examples to refer to. The Paolou has encountered troubles, but Qi Yue's way is always smashing and making trouble.

This approach is clearly no longer applicable.

"Big brothers, let's change places." Gu Zhong said, "It's really closed."

"Let you go out and buy." The black jacket glared at him, "Are you deaf?"

"It's closed now, and I can't buy it anywhere." Gu Zhong also looked at him, "You just came in from the outside, you should be able to see..."

"Then you guys do it!" A man in tight pants, whose ass was strangled into a pumpkin, interrupted him, "Do you believe what our elder brother said, and I touched your shabby shop right now?"

brother?ha!ha!

Gu Zhong could almost hear the sneer in his heart at this moment.

brother?Just like the black jacket, that temperament, that aura, that... looks, how dare you call him big brother?

It's okay for this bull to brag in front of others, but it's not convincing in front of him. It's really like he's never seen a "true big brother".

"The elder brothers don't seem to be unreasonable people." Gu Zhong squeezed out a hypocritical smile, "We are just part-time workers, and the materials are gone, and the boss hasn't prepared them, so we can't change them."

The black jacket didn't speak, and swept the spice rack and spice jars on the table to the ground with one hand.

Probably in order to improve the style, Qiyue's shop used small ceramic jars for seasoning jars, and they all shattered when they hit the ground.

This movement seemed a little shocking in the already empty store, and Xiao Ding shivered in fright.

Gu Zhong frowned, this situation made him suddenly miss Qi Yue very much.With his previous personality, no matter how much he yells now, he will accompany him if he wants to hit him after the yelling. Now he no longer has the urge to strike at the slightest disagreement. The annoying silly hat is indeed very capable of making him angry.

"Brother, it's inappropriate for you to do this." Gu Zhong didn't bother to smirk anymore. "What's the point of embarrassing us two waiters? How much to buy and what time to close is the boss's decision, not ours."

Anyway, the boss is not here.

Pumpkin's butt glanced at him, then kicked the chair next to him, the chair was kicked over and fell to Gu Zhong's feet.

"Xiao Ding." Gu Zhong pushed Xiao Ding towards the stairs, "You go upstairs."

It might be impossible to call the police in front of these people. Xiao Ding went to the second floor to report to the police, and he could still hide in Qiyue's house.

Xiao Ding reacted quite quickly, reached out to pick up his bag, turned around and ran upstairs.

Seeing Pumpkin's buttocks, he immediately followed and kicked Xiao Ding's bag.

Xiao Ding screamed, and Bao was kicked to the ground.

"Go up." Gu Zhong didn't ask Xiao Ding to pick up the bag again. After Xiao Ding ran up the stairs, he took a step towards the pumpkin's buttocks and blocked him, "Talk to me if you have something to say."

"Cook!" Pumpkin roared as it stuck its butt in his face.

Gu Zhong was almost slapped by the smell of wine coming to his face, he was really speechless, and yelled at the face of Pumpkin's buttocks: "There is no material to make!"

"Go buy it!" Pumpkin's butt continued to roar, and by the way, kicked the refrigerator again.

The refrigerator shook, and Gu Zhong stretched out his hand to help him. He couldn't communicate with the drunk trash gangster. Just when he wanted to fight and push the man away, the black jacket that had been sitting still jumped up and down. He got up and overturned a table, then took out a knife, sat down at another table, and thrust the knife into the table.He didn't get it in, so he picked it up and slammed it at the table seven or eight times, and finally got it into the crack of the table.

Gu Zhong was annoyed and angry at first, but now he almost amused him.

"What are you arguing with them for? If you have any materials, you can find out by yourself!" Black Jacket also roared, with a vague drunkenness in his voice.

"Get out!" Gu Zhong really didn't want them to continue to fight here, "Get out!"

When the black jacket and the pumpkin butt stared over together, Gu Zhong was very grateful to the third person who had fallen asleep on the table.

He was thinking about how he would rush out from between the two of them if they were surrounded by them, when he suddenly saw a figure swaying at the door of the store.

He recognized Qi Yue at a glance.

"Call the police!" Gu Zhong yelled over there.

"What's wrong?" Qi Yue pushed the door open and walked in.

"Are you the boss?" The black jacket tossed the knife in his hand, and sat there like an uncle, "Go and cook something for us brothers."

Qi Yue didn't speak, he glanced at Gu Zhong, and then looked him up and down.

Gu Zhong guessed that he was checking to see if he was injured, so he shook his head, these drunkards hadn't reached the peak of excitement to do it yet.

"What do you want to eat?" Qi Yue asked, while walking towards the kitchen, he took off his coat and put it on the back of the chair next to him.

The moment the tattoo on the arm was exposed, both the black jacket and the pumpkin butt were stunned, staring at his arm, wondering if they heard Qi Yue's question, anyway, no one answered.

Qi Yue went into the kitchen, took something from the desk, turned around and came out again.When Gu Zhong saw clearly that he was holding a kitchen knife in his hand, he was also taken aback for a moment, and a dozen possible scenarios flashed through his mind in an instant.Very bloody.

They were all the scenes that my mother imagined that he would encounter if he continued to be with Qi Yue.But he was very sure that Qi Yue would not let such a scene happen, he had never dealt with things like this before, let alone now.

Qi Yue carried the kitchen knife and walked up to the black jacket. The black jacket was still sitting there, looked up at him, and when he was about to speak, Qi Yue raised his hand.Before everyone could react, he had already chopped off the arm of the black jacket that was resting on the table.

Gu Zhong felt that his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets at this moment.

Everyone didn't even have time to react, the knife had already slashed on the table with a "bang".

The air in the room suddenly froze.The black jacket stared blankly at Qi Yue with his mouth half open, as if he had fallen into a trance.

Gu Zhong was probably the first person to come to his senses, he quickly turned his head and glanced at the table.

The knife cut into the table against the arm of the black jacket.This is accurate!If it wasn't for the inappropriate situation, Gu Zhong really wanted to applaud Qi Yue.

"Are you sober?" Qi Yue leaned on the table and flicked his finger on the knife.

The knife that cut into the table by an inch made a crisp sound. "Ding."

Still unable to speak, the black jacket nodded with his mouth half-opened.

"It's closed." Qi Yue said, "If you want to eat noodles, come tomorrow. Just come after ten o'clock in the morning. There are many flavors to choose from. I recommend you to try our signature noodles. It is very delicious with black pepper."

Black Jacket continued to nod, his mouth still half-open.

Qi Yue went over and opened the store door, and made a gesture of invitation.The black jacket hesitated for a moment and stood up, glanced at the pumpkin's butt, and walked out to the door.

Pumpkin's butt also walked out, Qi Yue stopped him, he jumped back half a step as if frightened, and stared at Qi Yue.

"That brother." Qi Yue raised his chin to the one who was still asleep on the table.

Pumpkin Butt hurriedly turned around and pulled that person up, slapped that person in the face, and walked towards the door: "Sleep! You won't die if you sleep!"

After everyone left, Gu Zhong heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Qi Yue and said, "I thought your knife was going to chop off his arm."

"So don't believe me." Qi Yue smiled.

"No." Gu Zhong rubbed his nose, "I'm mainly worried that you cut it crookedly."

"As long as he doesn't move, I won't cut it crookedly." Qi Yue said.

"Then what if he moves!" Gu Zhong whispered.

"So hurry up, before he moves." Qi Yue patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I didn't stick to it either, it was quite far away, and I didn't dare to get so close."

"Wow..." Xiao Ding, who had been sitting on the edge of the stairs watching this side, came over, "Brother Qi, you are so cool."

"Are you all right?" Qi Yue asked.

"It's okay, it's okay." Xiao Ding waved his hand, "Xiao Gu still protected me and told me to hide upstairs, but I wanted to bring my phone up to call the police, but they destroyed my bag...my bag... ..."

Xiaoding turned his head to look, and went to pick up his bag.

"It's just a few people who got too drunk and ran in when the door was about to close. They were drunk." Gu Zhong went over and grabbed the kitchen knife and pulled it out. "I don't know that people like this usually..."

The kitchen knife didn't come out after a while, Gu Zhong was stunned for a moment, then added some strength, and said, "Usually..."

The knife still didn't move, he said a little annoyed: "Hey!"

"Chicken feet." Qi Yue laughed beside him.

"Usually..." Gu Zhong pulled it out again and picked up the table, but the knife did not come down.

"Can you finish talking first?" Qi Yue sighed.

"There shouldn't be many drunks like this, right? If they come here every now and then, they won't be annoying to death." Gu Zhong said.

"It's only happened once in a month or so. It's okay." Qi Yue said, "The police station is at the corner of the street, and there is a phone at the cash register. If there is anything to call, they will arrive very quickly."

"Oh." Gu Zhong hesitated, and leaned into Qi Yue's ear, "I thought you didn't want to call the police."

Qi Yue glanced at him: "Why?"

"Just..." Gu Zhongqing cleared the noise, and continued in a low voice, "Last time, the cripple said that you were afraid of the police."

Qi Yue looked at him, and laughed after a while: "How come you are sometimes very mature, and sometimes you are really...two."

"What?" Gu Zhong spat out

"But I was really scared before. When I saw the police, I walked around, wondering if I would run into the police's hands again." Qi Yue smiled, "Now I have nothing to be afraid of, I, a handsome , the owner of the noodle shop."

"Where's the face?" Gu Zhong looked down at the ground, "Who saw our boss's face?"

When I looked up, I saw Xiao Ding holding his bag, smiling awkwardly standing three steps away from them.

"Ah." Gu Zhong hurriedly took a step back. When he just talked to Qi Yue, he almost stuck together, "Xiao Ding, you should go home early, you have worked hard today."

After he finished speaking, he regretted it. He said this as if he hoped that Xiao Ding would leave quickly and not disturb their time alone.

"You two work hard, tidy up here before leaving." Qi Yue walked to the table and held the handle of the kitchen knife.

"Okay." Xiao Ding nodded with a smile, "Actually, I'm fine, it's quite exciting to think about it."

"There are seasoning jars in the cabinet upstairs, Gu Zhong, go get a set and replace it." Qi Yue pulled out the kitchen knife.

A miracle happened.The table bounced, but the kitchen knife didn't move.

"Didn't you chop too hard?" Qi Yue was also a little shocked.

"Wait." Xiao Ding opened his bag and took out his mobile phone, "Let me take a picture to commemorate the strong knife."

"Don't you want to commemorate the two men in your shop who couldn't even pull out a knife?" Gu Zhong sighed.

Xiao Ding couldn't help laughing, and took several shots of the knife with his mobile phone before he finally got a clear picture.

Qi Yue held the knife and the table together, and after shaking it a few times, the kitchen knife was finally pulled out from the table.

"The quality of the table is great." Qi Yue said.

"En." Gu Zhong nodded sincerely.

After cleaning up the store and closing the door, Gu Zhong went up to the second floor.Qi Yue stood by the window with a cigarette in his mouth.

"You're not used to it." Gu Zhong walked over, "I can't see the street anymore."

"Yeah." Qi Yue nodded, "But it doesn't matter, I used to look at the street view because there was nothing else to see, and now I don't have too many requirements for the place where I am in a daze.

Gu Zhong smiled, sat down beside him, put his legs on the chair and said, "Hey, I think this place is not bad, the business is good, at least we don't have to worry about going bankrupt."

The phone vibrated in the light, Gu Zhong quickly took it out

After coming out of the house today, he has been a little worried about his mother, whether he will be in a bad mood, whether he will feel uncomfortable, and whether the son left as soon as he said he would leave without saving her face, whether she will think that the son has been raised for nothing .

But his mother never contacted him again, and he didn't know whether to contact his mother. After all, their differences have not been resolved. I have to make noise again...

There was a message from his mother displayed on the phone, Gu Zhong quickly clicked on it.

"Son, mom thought about it just now. You are not a child anymore. Parents shouldn't take too much care of some things. You can judge for yourself."

Gu Zhong was stunned.This news from my mother is completely different from her attitude in the morning.

Such a huge change made him a little overwhelmed.Based on his understanding of his mother in the past 20 years, this is basically impossible. What happened?

"Who?" Qi Yue asked beside him.

Gu Zhong looked up at him, stared at him for about 30 seconds, and then asked, "Did you just go..."

"Huh?" Qi Yue put out his cigarette calmly, "What?"

It's Qi Yue!Qi Yue's reaction, if it wasn't for him, he would definitely not be so calm.

"Did you go to see my mother?" Gu Zhong asked.

"Why do you ask that?" Qi Yue sat next to him.

"My mother is quite stubborn." Gu Zhong said, "It's only been a day, and she gave in? How is it possible, this is not her style."

"Did she send you a message?" Qi Yue asked.

"Yeah." Gu Zhong clicked out the news of his mother and passed it in front of Qi Yue, "Did you find her? Otherwise, I really couldn't explain why she said that. When I came out in the morning, she still said, 'Don't you Reflect on your attitude that you're going to be a vagabond."

"Maybe... I feel sorry for you." Qi Yue said.

"I only have 50 yuan a week for pocket money. I don't think I can pay it every half a month. If I don't give it to me every day, I feel sorry for me." Gu Zhong clicked his tongue, "My mother is not an ordinary mother."

Qi Yue leaned back against the wall and laughed for a long time.

Finally, he sighed and said, "It's me, but I told her not to contact you first, I don't want you to think that I've gotten involved between you and your mother."

"She contacted me immediately." Gu Zhong said, "So my mother is not an ordinary mother."

"Don't mind." Qi Yue said, "I didn't say anything else, I just wanted her not to misunderstand me."

"I don't mind." Gu Zhong looked at him, then looked down at the phone, "Not only do I not mind, but I am also very...excited and moved."

Qi Yue smiled and said nothing.

"You said you were serious when you went out." Gu Zhong said, "I didn't think about it at all. I never thought that you would go to my mother."

"You've been waiting for news from her all day, and I can tell." Qi Yue said, "I can't leave you alone as a child..."

Gu Zhong squinted at him.

"I can't make you a... big man... Is this expression okay?" Qi Yue asked.

"Hey!" Gu Zhong sighed with a smile, "Where did you meet my mother?"

"Mahjong hall." Qi Yue said.

Gu Zhong suddenly laughed out loud; "It's her style. People usually go there when they find her. Her friend opened it. Later, when the business was not good, it became a mahjong parlor exclusively for their sisters... What do you do with her? Talking? Did she pick you up before she went up?"

"Ignore me at first, but later." Qi Yue whispered, "I helped her win two big hands, and her impression of me changed immediately."

"Mother..." Gu Zhong said.

"Very dear." Qi Yue nodded.

"Do you think I will believe it?" Gu Zhong tilted his head and narrowed his eyes.

"Believe it, she really ignored me at first, and then I really helped her win the card." Qi Yue said.

"What happened later?" Gu Zhong asked.

"Don't ask." Qi Yue smiled, "I can tell your mother some things if I go all out, but I don't want you to know."

"Did you express your determination with tears streaming down your face?" Gu Zhong said.

Qi Yue smiled halfway and said, "Your imagination is too limited."

"Okay." Gu Zhong didn't intend to ask any more questions, he just needed to know that Qi Yue was serious, and that he knew why he was admitting the truth, that's all. It didn't matter if he didn't know the process.

If there were tears streaming down his face, he didn't really want to know... Gu Zhong glanced at Qi Yue's eyes, but it didn't look like real tears were flowing.

In Qi Yue's new room, sleeping is much more comfortable than before, and he can sleep on his back.

Gu Zhong spread a small quilt on the floor and fell asleep. This sleep was almost the best and deepest he had ever slept since he was injured and hospitalized.

In the morning, when he heard the movement downstairs, he was so strong and confused for a long time before he woke up.

Qi Yue was not in the room anymore, the handsome noodle shop owner should have been busy in the kitchen at this time.

Gu Zhong yawned and went downstairs, there was no one in the store, but there were quite a lot of people at the door.

He was startled, and hurriedly rushed to the door. Could there be a follow-up to what happened last night?After he went out, he found that the previous signboard for "noodles" had been replaced, and several workers were installing a new signboard.

"Look, how's it going?" Qi Yue pulled him aside, "Two!"

Gu Zhong looked up and saw that it was still in a simple and crude style, with white characters on a black background and only one number on it - 2.

This "2" has some designs, and it looks like it has the artistic conception of swinging its arms and running around in the wind.

"Does it look good?" Qi Yue asked.

"It looks good." Gu Zhong looked at the sign, "Does it have any meaning?"

"No, if you want one, I'll think of one for you now." Qi Yue said.

"Want to come and listen to me?" Gu Zhong smiled.

"This 2 is you." Qi Yue said.

Gu Zhong turned to look at him.

"Really, can you feel it?" Qi Yue asked.

Gu Zhong didn't speak, and stared at the sign for a while: "Maybe, maybe maybe... I need to force myself to understand."

"It's okay." Qi Yue whispered in his ear, "There is plenty of time."
