Yu Chao screamed loudly in fright, rushed into the kitchen and hid behind Xu Jiaxi.

"Can you be of some use?" Xu Jiaxi was hugged tightly by him, unable to move, she said helplessly.

"Where did the ghost come from? You can see clearly."

Yu Chao was most afraid of these strange things in his life. Out of fear, he didn't know how much strength he used to hug Xu Jiaxi, and even when he was laughed at, he accepted it, because he was really scared.

"That's just a wall clock."

What!Yu Chao suspiciously showed half an eye from behind Xu Jiaxi.

There is a rope on the head of the bleeding man with seven holes, and looking up, there is really a bell hanging on the ceiling, and there is a door on it, which is open, and a rope is hanging from it.

At this time, the head was moving upwards, and then it was pulled into the door of the bell, and the door was closed.About five seconds later, the door of the bell opened automatically, and the head of the man just now appeared inside again, and it fell down with a "thump".

"This clock strikes the hour, and it is seven o'clock, and it will fall seven times."

After hearing this, Yu Chao let go of Xu Jiaxi's hand, feeling a little embarrassed.

Seeing that his eyes were a little wet, Xu Jiaxi couldn't be crying from fright, right?

Rarely felt a little compassion, and asked in a soft tone: "Are you okay? This is a prize from our office's team building activities in the past two years. No one wanted it, so I took it back."

"..."

Yu Chao was really scared just now, and he was a little speechless when he heard this, "Aren't you afraid of hanging such a thing on the ceiling in the middle of the night? Does it have to fall down 12 times at midnight?"

"Report from eight in the morning to eight in the evening, and do not report the rest of the time."

"You, you...your taste in straight men is really..." Yu Chao was still in shock and didn't want to speak.

"Go wash your hands and get ready to eat."

"Where is the bathroom?"

Xu Jiaxi pointed casually: "The corridor is at the end."

Unexpectedly, Xu Jiaxi's house is quite big. Apart from most of the open space in front, there are actually two small rooms and a bathroom in the corridor, but Yu Chao has no intention of paying too much attention to Xu Jiaxi's straight man at this time. Make an evaluation, wash your hands and come out.

"Where are we going to eat?" I didn't see the dining table and chairs at all. Do I have to sit on the tatami to eat?

"At the bar."

"..." Although he really wanted to complain, Yu Chao still helped to bring the dishes to the bar.Xu Jiaxi made steamed fish, fried snails, stir-fried beef and vegetables with tomato, it smelled delicious and very appetizing.

The two stood on the edge of the bar, looking at the dishes on it, neither of them moved.

Yu Chao thought, if Xu Jiaxi said at this time, "Let's eat standing up."

He had no choice but to admit it.

Fortunately, Xu Jiaxi finally remembered this matter.

"wait."

He opened the floor-to-ceiling windows, brought back a high chair from the balcony, placed it in front of the bar, and motioned to Yu Chao, "You sit here."

"There is only one chair? Then where do you sit?" Xu Jiaxi's house is so strange that there are so few things.There are not many cups, and there is only one chair.

"Originally there were two, one was broken, and this one is left. Sit down."

Yu Chao is neither sitting nor not sitting, "It's better for you to sit, I'll stand."

"No need." Saying that, Xu Jiaxi stretched her long legs, stretched her wrists, jumped onto the bar counter, stepped on a raised spot on the bar counter, and sat down with a relaxed and normal look.

"..." Yu Chao was dumbfounded!

Xu Jiaxi looked at Yu Chao "highly above", and motioned for him: "Sit."

"..."

"Do you want a big bowl or a small bowl?" Xu Jiaxi asked him, holding a small bowl of "Yi Oli Milk" and a large bowl of "Tong O Yi Lao Tan Sauerkraut".

"..." Yu Chao silently took over the "Old Tan Sauerkraut Bowl".

Xu Jiaxi knew that Yu Chao must be slandering her, so she didn't care, "Let's just use it, there is no other bowl."

This life is casual enough, Yu Chao thought to himself, but there should be some pursuit in life.

"Let's have a drink."

"How are you driving tonight when you're drunk?"

"Hee hee..." Yu Chao rolled his eyes, holding back bad ideas, "Aren't you going to keep me overnight? I can wash the dishes and warm the bed."

"Best Film King Yu," Xu Jiaxi sat high, feeling a little condescending at this moment, looking down at Yu Chao with serious eyes.

"We are just a contract couple, not a real couple. Please abide by the agreement. If you don't talk about that, we can still have a good meal and chat, but if you keep thinking about that, we have nothing to say gone."

Hearing this, Yu Chao's thoughts changed. The view from above brought him a lot of pressure, so he finally nodded.

Xu Jiaxi took the black O man's toothpaste cup and poured Yu Chao a glass of wine, and also poured a glass for herself.

Yu Chao received the "gift from above" and raised his glass: "Then, let's drink to the future revolutionary friendship!"

The two clinked glasses and sighed.

Before finishing drinking, Yu Chao couldn't help laughing to himself.

"Does this feel like that middle-aged and elderly meme 'Cheers to our friendship'? I'm so happy."

"Pfft..." Xu Jiaxi felt the same way, and almost vomited too.

The two laughed together, and the atmosphere was rarely so harmonious.

"Okay, stop laughing, let's eat." Yu Chao picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, stunned.

"Unappetizing?"

"No, no. Delicious. Delicious." Yu Chao picked up a few more pieces.

It's really delicious, the beef is tender and crunchy, not old at all, and the sourness of the tomato blends just right.

Cutting beef is a test of knife skills. If you don't know how to cut it, it will be hard to chew after frying. Xu Jiaxi's thickness is just right and it is delicious.

"I don't have enough time today, so I do it casually."

"Is this what you call casual? It's completely beyond expectations." At the beginning, Yu Chao asked Xu Jiaxi to treat him to dinner purely to tease him, never thinking that his cooking skills are so good.

He tried the snail again, and it was no worse than the one in the restaurant. He looked up at Xu Jiaxi and said sincerely, "I never thought you were a great chef."

"It may be a bit of talent, and I rarely do it."

"So it's talent flow." Yu Chao was hungry all night, and just now he was frightened again. Now he has a big appetite and eats very satisfyingly, "Speaking of which, I haven't eaten home-cooked food for many years."

"?"

"I can't do it myself, and no one in my family can do it. When I was young, my grandfather could do it. Later, my grandfather passed away and my uncle did it. But my uncle didn't do it for a few years because he...was sick."

Yu Chao seemed to be remembering something from the long past, and his tone of voice became slow and drawn out.

"My mother hired a nanny for us, but her cooking was not to my taste, and I always ate out. Then I went to boarding school and ate in the school cafeteria all day. I never fired a fire after I came out to work. , Occasionally go to a colleague's house for dinner, but their cooking is not as good as yours."

"Your mother doesn't cook?"

"My mother?" Yu Chao poured himself a glass of wine, feeling bored, "My mother flies all over the world, and I haven't been able to see her a few times throughout the year. Besides, she can cook an egg at most. Nine out of ten times it will be blurred."

"Oh, where's Dad?"

Yu Chao paused, then gave Xu Jiaxi a fish with chopsticks, "Eat more."

"I'm sorry." Xu Jiaxi was about to say something wrong, why did he forget that "father" is a taboo in Yu Chao.

"fine."

It may be that the atmosphere was unexpectedly harmonious, and Xu Jiaxi also had the desire/desire to speak.

"I also grew up in a dining hall."

"Do you live in boarding school, too?"

"No, my dad works in the school, so he is very busy and has no time to cook. I go to the school cafeteria to solve it by myself." Xu Jiaxi opened another bottle of wine and filled them both.

"As for my mother, she has her own family, just like you. I haven't seen her a few times a year, but she cooks delicious food."

Neither of them expected that their growth experiences were quite similar.

"Director Xu, toast?" Yu Chao picked up the cup and clinked glasses with Xu Jiaxi, it was the first time that he felt that it was not bad to simply eat and drink without purpose.

"cheers."
