look forward to

The sky was dim, and the winter night came very early, and the lights were turned on. The "Five Brothers BBQ" was full of customers, and the shops next to it were also full of people. I usually don't think there are many people in Guancheng. It feels like all hands are out.

This was originally an open-air parking lot. During the day, passenger vehicles from various villages and towns would park here to wait for customers. At night, they would all leave. The higher-ups thought it was a waste of resources. Later, after integrating the scattered barbecue stalls, all of them were concentrated here. a night market.

"Fifth brother, let's get a beer first." As soon as the group sat down, Ai Mingrui asked the boss for a beer.

"Old Qin, it's better for you to order food. By the way, order some noodles for me. After cleaning up for a long time, I'm starving to death." Xu Yong pulled the stool away and pushed Qin Mufeng.

"Jin Chu, what do you want to eat? Go and have a look with Lao Qin." Ai Mingrui said while opening the wine with a corkscrew.

"Let's go." Qin Mufeng touched Jin Chu, and took Jin Chu to get vegetables from the freezer.

"Yeah..." Jin Chu saw that they were quite familiar with the boss, so they should come here often. He followed behind Qin Mufeng and watched him skillfully handle all kinds of vegetables and meat. In fact, he didn't particularly like to eat. Before taking it back, he was not qualified to be a picky eater and could eat basically anything.

Qin Mufeng asked him, "Is there anything you particularly want to eat? If not, I'll take it."

"Okay" Jin Chu didn't know what to do with him, he didn't take anything.

"Handsome guy, your tabletop is ready." Seeing Jin Chu and Qin Mufeng together, the boss guessed that he was fine. "Would you like to serve it?"

"it is good."

Qin Mufeng took the plate and hadn't finished ordering, so Jin Chu simply took a tray and served the noodles by himself. Seeing that Jin Chu had brought the noodles over, Xu Yong smiled and said thank you, and started to eat, probably really hungry .

As soon as Jin Chu sat down, Luo Yulin put a glass of wine in front of him, "Dude, it's a holiday, you can indulge yourself a bit." Last time when Ai Mingrui had a birthday, he saw Jin Chu's good drinking capacity, so he was not polite this time. up.

Jin Chu didn't make any excuses. To be honest, he didn't seem to be very good at getting along with people. Without Qin Mufeng, he really didn't know how to get along with them.

The barbecue was ready soon, a dozen beers were obviously not enough, the boss quickly ordered another dozen, Qin Mufeng's phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number.

He pressed the button casually, and then the phone rang again. There was a flash of impatience on his face, and then he touched Jin Chu and said, "I'm going to answer the phone."

Jin Chu nodded and looked at the back of Qin Mufeng walking out, Xu Yong touched Jin Chu's cup, "Don't look at him, let's drink."

When the call was connected, Qin Mufeng was not surprised at all. It was Tan Zhengxuan. He asked, "Tan Zhengxuan, are you so interesting?"

Tan Zhengxuan's somewhat hurt voice came from the other end, "Mu Feng, what you said is quite hurtful. Even if we are not together, we can still be considered friends."

"I can't do it here." Qin Mufeng said coldly, "Don't call me."

"Does he know you like him? Or are you already together?"

"Don't worry about it."

"He doesn't know yet, doesn't he know that you like men, Mu Feng, I'm curious what he will think of you if he knows."

Qin Mufeng tightened his hand holding the phone, "Tan Zhengxuan, why do you insist on making it so ugly? It's none of his business. What are you bothering about?"

"Mu Feng, you are not such a considerate person, why? Do you really like him?"

"Whether I like him or not has nothing to do with you now, you just need to remember that you are the one who wants to leave." Qin Mufeng felt a little dizzy, and he remembered Tan Zhengxuan when he said to break up. He never wanted to remember the feeling of heart-biting Gu, since he had already let go, why bother to repeat the same mistakes.

He said in a deep voice, "Tan Zhengxuan, I used to really like you, but now that we are over, you don't want to be so troubled all the time, right? Your current behavior is not because you still like me, but more because you are not reconciled. You know it yourself."

There was no response from the other end of the phone except for a slight breath, Qin Mufeng continued, "Don't toss about it, you said it wasn't like this when we separated, live well, let's not contact each other again."

"Mu Feng...don't, don't hang up..." On the other end of the phone, Tan Zhengxuan's voice was choked up, and Qin Mufeng's fingers froze when he hung up the phone. Is Tan Zhengxuan crying?That lonely and lofty Tan Zhengxuan cried?

Qin Mufeng softened his tone, "Xiaoxuan, let's leave good memories for each other. We have grown up, and since we have made a choice, we should be responsible for our own decision. In fact, you are right, we are indeed not suitable."

"Mu Feng, are you really... don't even want to be friends with me?"

"No, take care."

Qin Mufeng moved his frozen fingers, the phone was still in his hand, he was not someone who couldn't afford to put it down, he once thought that he and Tan Zhengxuan could always be together, go to the same school, go to the same university, We will spend a long life together in the future.

However, the love of adults cannot be guaranteed to be long-lasting. How long can the love between him and Tan Zhengxuan have a shelf life? A bird that wants to soar, the sky he can choose is too wide, fly to a new place, have New pursuits are perfectly normal.

He and Tan Zhengxuan just discovered that they are the same kind after awakening their youthful love.

Qin Mufeng looked at Jin Chu who couldn't let go of his hands and feet chatting with Xu Yong and the others. He ate cautiously and clinked glasses with others gently. Do he really like him?

He reached into his pocket, took out a cigarette and lit it.

"Old Qin, what are you doing, come here quickly." Seeing that Qin Mufeng hadn't returned yet, Ai Mingrui waved to the outside and shouted.

"coming."

Qin Mufeng sat back next to Jin Chu in the air-conditioning, and there was still a faint smell of tobacco on his body. He was a little weirdly irritable, but he didn't show it on his face. He took a sip from the cup on the table and saw that Jin Chu had been eating only vegetarian dishes. Ask, "Don't you like meat?"

Jin Chu still had a small piece of eggplant with garlic in his mouth, and whispered, "No." Although he said that he didn't like to eat it, Qin Mufeng didn't see him touch the shrimp that Qin Mufeng put in the bowl after hearing him say no. .

Qin Mufeng didn't know what was going on today, he seemed to pay special attention to Jin Chu, he seemed to have obsessive-compulsive disorder, he had to see Jin Chu eat the shrimp, and asked, "Why don't you eat it, don't you know how to peel it?" Jin Chu was about to refute, when Qin Mufeng put on his gloves and took away the shrimp in his bowl.

He peeled off the prawns neatly with gestures. Jin Chu didn’t know what to say for a moment. He wanted to tell Qin Mufeng that he didn’t know how to eat prawns. He thought...the prawns looked like bugs. It turned out that there was a bowl in the backyard of my aunt’s house, and it grew in the well. There are quite a lot of creatures, and there is a kind of shrimp that looks like a bug. It cannot be eaten, but it is quite scary. Later, when he saw all kinds of shrimps eaten outside, he felt that he couldn't eat them.

Jin Chu was not good at rejecting people since he was a child. He really didn't know how to reject Qin Mufeng's kindness, and Qin Mufeng had already put the peeled shrimp in his bowl.

"Eat." Qin Mufeng did not forget to remind him after peeling.

Deng Wen and the others on the side were stunned. How could Lao Qin be so considerate today? Why didn't he talk so much before and help others peel shrimp.

Ai Mingrui joked, "Old Qin, we want to eat too, why don't you peel it for us too~"

Qin Mufeng didn't even look at them, and said lightly, "Look in front of you, do you still want me to control you?"

Jin Chu was a little embarrassed for a while, seeing that Qin Mufeng's hands hadn't stopped, he bit the bullet and said, "Student Qin, thank you, don't worry about me, that..."

"Huh?" Seeing that he was about to speak, Qin Mufeng turned to look at him.

Jin Chu felt that it was a bit pretentious for a boy not to eat shrimps because they looked like bugs, but seeing Qin Mufeng taking care of himself like this, he moved his head closer to Qin Mufeng's side and whispered in Qin Mufeng's ear, "I...I won't Eat shrimp."

Qin Mufeng looked at him and asked, "Are you allergic?"

"That's not true, I just don't eat it." I can't tell you that it looks like a bug...

"..."

Then everyone just watched Qin Mufeng put his hand into Jin Chu's bowl, and took the peeled shrimp away again!

Then, he ate it! ! !

Qin Mufeng didn't think there was anything wrong with this at all, but the jaws of the people on the table were so shocked that Qin Mufeng had never eaten anything from their bowls, something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Jin Chu didn't think there was anything wrong. When my aunt was taking care of them, my aunt would take away the food my cousin wouldn't eat.

"Old Qin, are you celebrating the New Year here or are you going back to Yuncheng?" Ai Mingrui suddenly asked Qin Mufeng.

"No return." Qin Mu continued to peel the remaining shrimp without raising his head.

So isn't Qin Mufeng's family here?Jin Chu ate in silence, listening to them.

"It just so happens that Chinese New Year is too boring, we can go out and be happy." Ai Mingrui said happily.

A few people ate and drank until very late, and then let Brother Wu serve a dozen beers, and they were a little unsteady when they left.

Xu Yong had to go home the next day, so he went back by himself. Ai Mingrui was a little worried, so the two supported him back home.

Qin Mufeng drank a little too much this time, basically he didn't see anything to eat after eating those shrimps, and just drank. It seemed that Jin Chu couldn't bring him back to him like before.

Deng Wen and Luo Yulin also stood crookedly with their shoulders crossed, Qin Mufeng sat next to Jin Chu, and after saying "Go to Purple Star", he fell silent. Jin Chu himself was almost drunk, but he was still conscious of.

Deng Wen and the others also planned to go to Purple Star, so the four of them simply went together.

Hearing Qin Mufeng talk about Zixing several times, Jin Chu saw it this time. Zixing is actually a rather old hotel.

Although Guancheng is backward, many hotels have good appearances. This Zixing has a sign of "Zixing Hotel" shining purple in the alley.

However, after entering, Jin Chu discovered that they were going to climb up to the third floor.

Several people climbed up and down, and a woman about 30 years old was sitting at the cash register. Jin Chu first said, "Miss Boss, two standard rooms."

"Well, give me your ID card."

Jin Chu was stunned, he didn't bring them with him, and those few were probably enough, so no one thought about not going back at night.

"Have you brought your ID card?" Jin Chu still asked.

Several people shook their heads, Qin Mufeng came over and leaned against the cashier counter, "Sister, we all forgot to bring them, they are all my classmates, I really drank too much today."

Seeing that it was Qin Mufeng, the proprietress smiled and said, "Xiao Qin, why are you drinking like this? Forget it, go wash up and sleep quickly~" After speaking, she gave them two cards.

After a lot of tossing, it can be regarded as entering the house. The two rooms are next to each other, 507 and 508. Luo Yulin and Deng Wen entered the next door, 508, and they just screamed that they had to go to sleep.

Jin Chu supported Qin Mufeng and tightened 507. Although the purple star looked old on the outside, it looked good in the room.

When Qin Mufeng entered the door, he sat down on the chair beside him. Jin Chu quickly picked up the remote control on the table and turned on the air conditioner. Drinking so much beer in winter might catch a cold.

He saw that Qin Mufeng should be fine sitting there, so he took the hot water pot on the table to catch the water, boiled it to sterilize it, scalded all the cups, and re-boiled the pot of water. It cools quickly, pouring water back and forth in two cups, the water temperature drops quickly.

Qin Mufeng sat on the chair and felt a headache. He watched Jin Chu's busyness since he entered the door. He obviously drank a lot himself and took care of others like this.

He watched Jin Chu walk a little wobbly, but he was still able to sterilize and boil water consciously.

Jin Chu handed Qin Mufeng a glass of water that was warm enough to drink, "Drink some water and feel better."

"Well, thank you, you..." Qin Mufeng saw that he didn't pour it for himself.

"Mine is over there." Jin Chu pointed to the water glass on the TV cabinet.

Qin Mufeng held the cup in his hand, looked at the cup of steaming water, and tightened his fingers, "Why don't we drink together."

Jin Chu waved his hand and said, "No, drink it quickly, the water cools down quickly in winter, and you can drink it in a while." Drink a glass of water with Qin Mufeng, even if he doesn't mind, Qin Mufeng will mind, he has never seen Qin Mufeng Who shared what.

Of course, Jin Chu couldn't remember that when he was eating earlier, Qin Mufeng also ate the shrimp he took from his bowl.

"Go take a shower after drinking, are you okay?" Jin Chu asked tentatively.

Qin Mufeng "..." He couldn't do it, so he said, "Yes."

Jin Chu looked at his expression, is this question difficult to answer?

"Well, then you go wash first."

"Yeah." Qin Mufeng took a sip of water from the cup, and swallowed the warm water, and he felt much more comfortable. They used to drink, but no one would give him hot water to drink.

He watched Jin Chu shaking the cup gently, sitting at the end of the bed, not knowing what he was thinking.

The two of them were silent for a while, and after a while, he saw Jin Chu finally picked up the glass of water, put it on his lips carefully, and took a sip. Has this person always taken care of others like this?
