"Yes, the factory cafeteria is closed today, so we have to eat out."

Fang Ming recalled the snack stand they were discussing just now, and asked them curiously: "Which snack stand are you talking about?"

When the two female workers heard this, they said to him happily, "Teacher Fang, do you want to go to that snack stand for lunch? We want to go too, or why don't we go together? We'll take Teacher Fang there!"

The factory where they work is a machinery factory, and Fang Ming is a technician in the factory.

After graduating from university, I was assigned here.

He is young, well-educated, gentle-looking, gentle and polite to others, and is very popular among the workers in the factory.

Especially for the female workers, Fang Ming is simply their dream man.

When they see him, they always call him Teacher Fang enthusiastically.

The two female workers were very happy to be able to travel with Fang Ming.

On the short walk out of the factory gate, the smiles on the two female workers' faces lingered for a long time, and they continued to chat with Fang Ming about the food at the snack stand.

Fang Ming didn't say anything and listened silently to the female worker's introduction.

As soon as they walked out of the factory, Fang Ming saw a long queue not far away.

The two female workers were shocked.

"Huh? There's such a long line so early today, will there be no more when it's our turn?"

"This stall seems to be doing very good business. But there are so many people here. By the time it's our turn, it might be past mealtime. Why don't we go to another stall?"

The hesitant female worker looked at Fang Ming cautiously.

"Mr. Fang, how about I take you to another restaurant? I know a restaurant that makes delicious food."

As soon as the female worker finished speaking, the person in front of them in the queue turned around and spoke to them.

"The boss lady found a helper today, and the speed is only faster, not slower. Don't worry, it will be our turn soon."

When the female worker heard this, her eyes lit up: "Really?"

After getting the exact answer from the person in front of her, the female worker looked at Fang Ming again and asked for his opinion.

"Teacher Fang, they all said that the boss lady found a helper today, and it's very fast. Should we wait a little longer?"

Fang Ming raised his head. He was tall and his eyes passed over the people queuing in front of him and saw two figures in the front who were busy.

There were indeed two people busy.

Ma Xiaohui packed the turkey noodles for the customer. She raised her head, smiled, and handed the turkey noodles to the customer.

At this moment, Fang Ming's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief.

"Teacher Fang?" Are you listening? "It was not until the female worker next to him called him that Fang Ming withdrew his gaze absentmindedly.

"What?" he asked softly.

The female worker was stunned for a moment, then after she realized what she was saying, she quickly repeated it again.

"Teacher Fang, I mean, should we continue to wait?"

Fang Ming's mind was filled with the woman's smiling face. His long-frozen heart seemed to be injected with boiling blood at this moment. The ice melted and his heart began beating again.

"Well, wait." Fang Ming replied calmly.

He has been waiting for three years, so a little while longer won't hurt.

Ninghe packed rice balls and mixed cold noodles and cold skin, while Ma Xiaohui was responsible for packing various pasta dishes and also paid attention to Qianlin's dynamics of collecting and giving change.

The three of them divided the work and cooperated with each other, which was extremely efficient.

Soon only half of the long queue was left.

Soon two female workers came to the line, and Ning He asked them with a smile: "What do you want to eat?"

The female worker turned around and glanced at Fang Ming behind her: "Teacher Fang, why don't you order first?"

Fang Ming shook his head, and the female worker gave up.

They said to Ning He, "Madam boss, I want a bowl of cold noodles with extra spiciness and a bag of sour plum soup!"

"I want turkey noodles in my rice balls, and a bag of sour plum soup!" another female worker said quickly.

"Okay!" Ning He packed the rice balls and mixed the cold noodles very quickly.

Finally, Ma Xiaohui helped pack the cold noodles and handed them to the two female workers.

The female worker took it and looked hesitantly at Fang Ming behind her.

Fang Ming finally spoke up: "You guys go back and eat first, I have something to do after dinner."

The two female workers knew that this meant refusing to have lunch with them.

They nodded, said goodbye to Fang Ming, and left the stall quickly.

"I want a bowl of turkey noodles." Fang Ming stepped forward and looked at Ma Xiaohui steadily.

Ma Xiaohui recognized Fang Ming as soon as he spoke. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Fang Ming.

Ning He, who was standing by, noticed that something was wrong with Ma Xiaohui.

At the front, Ma Xiaohui was particularly enthusiastic and quick to serve every customer.

But when the male customer appeared in front of her, she didn't even look at him, didn't even respond, and didn't take her food away.

Seeing that Ma Xiaohui did not respond, Fang Ming repeated it again.

Finally, Qianlin touched Ma Xiaohui's arm and said, "Aunt Xiaohui, this uncle wants turkey noodles." "

"Oh, right away." Ma Xiaohui said without even raising her head.

Ma Xiaohui picked up the bag beside her, opened the lid, picked up the chopsticks, and was about to put the turkey noodles into the bag when she suddenly thought of something.

With a "pop", she closed the lid and said to Fang Ming with some apology.

"Sorry, we're out of turkey noodles. Can I have cold noodles?"

Ning He glanced at the half remaining bucket of turkey noodles in disbelief.

When Fang Ming heard Ma Xiaohui talking to him, a long-lost smile finally appeared on his face.

"good"

Ma Xiaohui hurriedly went to get the cold noodles and mix them.

Ning He watched Ma Xiaohui's hands shaking as she added seasonings to the dishes. During this time, the seasoning bottle fell several times. She picked it up clumsily and started to mix the cold noodles with awkward movements.

Ning He felt uncomfortable watching Ma Xiaohui mixing the cold noodles, as the noodles were mixed extremely unevenly.

But Ning He did not interrupt her, but greeted the guests behind.

However, when Ning He greeted other guests, his eyes never left them.

After Ma Xiaohui clumsily packed the cold noodles, she handed it to Fang Ming, her voice as soft as a mosquito.

"Your cold noodles are ready, take them."

Fang Ming looked at the hand stretched out to him. The exposed half of his wrist was covered with mottled purple marks.

His face tensed, and he reached out to hold Ma Xiaohui's hand, wanting to take a closer look: "Did he hit you?"

Ma Xiaohui panicked and abruptly retracted her hand. No one caught the bag of cold noodles, and it fell to the ground with a "bang".

Ning He was also startled by the noise here. She frowned slightly and spoke to Fang Ming in an unhappy tone.

"Comrade, you have been pestering us all the time and affecting our business!"

Fang Ming realized his mistake and apologized sincerely, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I'll go to the side and wait until they finish shopping first, then I'll buy."
