Chapter 6 He smiled at me! No matter what Xiao Zhier said, I...
This meal could be considered "a safe and secure one". The surprise came when Xiao Zhier suddenly remembered halfway through the meal that the military training had not yet ended. How did this kid Xu Censheng get out?
Fortunately, Xiao Zhier discovered that Xu Censheng had sneaked over the wall again and escaped, so he caught him and brought him back to school in time. He also gave Xu Ze, who was going back to the hospital for duty, a ride.
The car stopped at the entrance of the student dormitory building. Xiao Zhier watched Xu Censheng get off the car dejectedly, and couldn't help but remind him: "I didn't know you were Grandpa Xu's grandson before, but now I know. If you have any problems in the future, I can contact your family directly. So you should be honest in military training these days, and don't just think about running outside, understand?"
Xu Censheng nodded obediently. Although his eyes were rolling around and it was obvious that he was planning something weird again, he nodded obediently.
Xiao Zhier looked at his expression and was silent for two seconds: "If you do something stupid again, I will contact your uncle directly."
Xu Censheng's eyes didn't dare to gurgle anymore. He lowered his head with a bitter face: "I know, Brother Xiao..."
The two men watched Xu Censheng get out of the car and return to the dormitory building obediently. Xiao Zhier was afraid that the students in his class would cause trouble again, so he parked the car downstairs of the dormitory building for another 20 minutes. He started the car again only after he saw no one sneaking out.
Xiao Zhier smiled at Xu Ze: "I heard you just told my grandfather that you have to be on duty tonight. Will it delay your work? I will take you back to the hospital now."
Xu Ze smiled and shook his head. He took off his glasses slowly, wiped the lenses and put them into the glasses case he carried with him. "It's okay. I'm here to attend the class today. I won't be called in unless something unexpected happens."
Xiao Zhier also had a friend who studied medicine, so he naturally understood what Xu Ze meant.
The so-called on-duty system means that in addition to the medical staff on duty that day, other medical staff will be arranged to be on standby 24 hours a day in case of emergency due to insufficient staff.
As a doctor on duty, Xu Ze did not need to stay in the hospital all the time. He just had to make sure he could arrive quickly when he received a call asking him to provide support.
Therefore, Xiao Zhier glanced at the time and curled his lips slightly. It was past eight o'clock in the early autumn evening. The moonlight melted into the light of the street lamp and fell into Xiao Zhier's eyes, making those amber peach eyes seem to be filled with rippling water light.
He is good-looking, with a pair of very standard peach blossom eyes. When he looks at people, it always makes people feel that they are deeply loved by Xiao Zhier, and Xu Ze is no exception.
Xiao Zhier's smile was so seductive, like the siren in Western legends who would use her singing to lure sailors to drown. Her eyes were just like the sea where the sirens lived, trying to make Xu Ze willing to drown in that ocean.
Xiao Zhier's voice was also gentle: "I said I would treat you to a meal, but I was in a hurry to send Xu Censheng back and didn't have a good meal. Why don't I treat you to a meal now?"
Xu Ze looked at Xiao Zhier's smile, his mind had been confused for a long time, and at this moment there was only one sentence in his mind.
He smiled at me!
Xu Ze had no time to think about what Xiao Zhier said. He saw Xiao Zhier's lips moving and just nodded.
Xu Ze: No matter what Xiao Zhier said, I agree!
Xiao Zhier raised his eyebrows slightly. He stared at Xu Ze for a few seconds. Seeing that this man was looking at him and nodding unconsciously, he was not sure whether Xu Ze had heard what he said clearly.
He hesitated for two seconds and tried to speak: "Is Xu Ze unconscious?"
Because he felt guilty, Xiao Zhier subconsciously lowered his voice.
Xu Ze: "Yeah, yeah, ok, ok."
Xiao Zhier: ...
Damn it, so stupid.
He sighed silently, raised his hand, aimed at Xu Ze's shoulder and slapped him.
Xu Ze was startled by Xiao Zhi'er's slap. He suddenly came to his senses and looked at Xiao Zhi'er with a confused look: "Xiao, Brother Xiao?"
Xiao Zhier glanced at him and shook his head helplessly: "It takes several hours to eat a meal in a nearby restaurant. I'm afraid you might have to rush back to the hospital for something. Why don't you eat at a nearby restaurant?"
Xu Ze was immersed in the joy of Xiao Zhier's initiative to invite him to dinner, and he nodded immediately: "It's all right, I'm not picky about food."
Xiao Zhier smiled. He understood that Xu Ze was going to stick to the four principles of "It's all right, it's all right, you decide, I have no problem" in front of him. Xiao Zhier simply didn't ask Xu Ze what he wanted to eat, since this guy could only say "I'm OK" anyway.
He parked the car on the side of the road, turned around and got out, and walked around to the passenger side where Xu Ze was sitting to open the door for him. In fact, Xiao Zhier didn't need to do this, but he was really afraid that Xu Ze would not get out of the car in his current unconscious state.
Fortunately, Xu Ze's IQ returned while he was sitting in the restaurant waiting for his meal.
Perhaps it was the spicy air in the spicy hot pot restaurant that finally brought Xu Ze back to his senses. He looked at Xiao Zhier, who was sitting opposite him and carefully removing the wood from the disposable chopsticks: "Do you like spicy hot pot?"
Xiao Zhier looked up at him and saw Xu Ze also started to pull out his chopsticks and open the dish, so he knew that he had come back to his senses. Xiao Zhier smiled and said, "My colleague recommended it to me before. I've eaten here a few times and it's pretty good. I'll bring you here to try it."
Before Xu Ze could say anything, the number plate on the table made a sharp beeping sound, which scared him. Xiao Zhier couldn't help but shook his head laughing when he saw this, then stood up, picked up the two number plates and went to get their food.
Xiao Zhier handed over the number plate and heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Xu Ze who followed him. The young man smiled at him obediently: "I'll help you."
Xiao Zhier didn't stop him. He let Xu Ze carry the two bowls back and went to get the tableware and dipping sauce.
Xu Ze couldn't eat spicy food very well, and he felt nervous when he saw the bright red bowl of spicy hot pot in front of Xiao Zhier.
Xiao Zhier noticed Xu Ze's gaze. He lowered his head to glance at his bowl and silently stopped reaching for the chili jar: "I remember you don't seem to be able to eat spicy food?"
Xu Ze nodded obediently. When he saw Xiao Zhier stopped, he took the chili can and opened it in front of Xiao Zhier: "It's okay, you don't have to worry about me. I've also been practicing eating chili recently."
Xiao Zhier picked up the small spoon from the jar and scooped two spoonfuls of chili into his bowl. He put the spoon back to signal Xu Ze that it was enough: "Practice eating spicy food? Why do you suddenly want to practice this?"
Xu Ze stared at the chili jar and hesitated for a long time. He carefully added half a spoonful to himself before putting it back. While stirring the chili, he smiled and answered Xiao Zhier: "Because the person I like loves chili, I want to adapt to his taste so that I can ask him out for dinner in the future."
As he spoke, he silently clenched the chopsticks in his hand, bit the corner of his lip with the tip of his teeth, and seemingly nonchalantly stirred the hand-rolled noodles in the bowl, but his eyes were always glancing at Xiao Zhier opposite him.
Xiao Zhier has never been a dull person.
He realized in the morning that Xu Ze paid too much attention to him, and he could also tell that he did not hate Xu Ze.
However, for Xiao Zhier, starting a relationship with someone he had just gotten to know was a very unreliable decision, and he was not prepared to agree to Xu Ze so quickly.
But he would not resist Xu Ze's approach.
After all, it takes some time for people to see their own hearts clearly.
Xiao Zhier thought so.
He just didn't want to reject Xu Ze like this.
Perhaps it was because of those eyes that looked at him warmly and tenderly like a big dog every time they met.
Xiao Zhier heard the hidden meaning of Xu Ze's words. He suddenly raised his eyes to look at Xu Ze, and met the other person's gaze, which he did not have time to retract.
He smiled softly, reached out and scooped a beef ball that was not even coated with chili from his bowl and put it into Xu Ze's bowl: "It seems like you like this."
Xu Ze seemed to realize that Xiao Zhier was not ready to continue this topic with him. He pursed his lips lightly, with a slight smile on the corner of his lips: "Thank you, Brother Xiao."
Was this a polite rejection?
As Xu Ze thought so, his voice became low, as if he was deliberately suppressing some emotion. The young man did not look up, but just kept his head down and gently blew on the meatball on the chopsticks.
Xiao Zhier didn't say anything. He wasn't very hungry anyway, so he didn't order much. He simply filled his stomach and put down his chopsticks, casually pushing the vinegar bottle in front of Xu Ze.
Xu Ze was slightly stunned, and he subconsciously looked up at Xiao Zhier.
Xiao Zhier smiled at Xu Ze: "Why are you still crying?"
He softened his voice on his own initiative, and his speaking speed was clearly the same as usual, but the voice, which originally had a hint of warmth, immediately sounded much softer and more gentle after being deliberately controlled by Xiao Zhier, like the tender paws of a kitten, gently hooking Xu Ze's heart.
Xu Ze suddenly felt a sore nose, and the tears in his eyes became more obvious.
He was not usually a crybaby, and he didn't want Xiao Zhi'er to think he was a crybaby, so he raised his hand and took out a piece of paper and gently pressed the corners of his eyes, then smiled at Xiao Zhi'er: "No, the chili in this store is a little spicy, these are physiological tears."
Xiao Zhier looked at the young man opposite him with red eyes. He considerately did not expose Xu Ze's words again. He just got up and went to the front desk to buy a bottle of yogurt: "To relieve the spiciness."
Xu Ze obediently opened the bottle and took two sips. As the cold yogurt entered his mouth, the burning pain in his mouth caused by the chili pepper was indeed relieved a lot.
Seeing that he no longer looked like he was about to cry, Xiao Zhier spoke softly, "There's no need to force yourself to adapt to other people's tastes. If you can't handle spicy food, I'll treat you to Guangzhou cuisine next time."
Xu Ze widened his eyes slightly.
He stared at Xiao Zhier for a few seconds. Xiao Zhier raised his eyebrows when he saw this. He raised his hand and tapped Xu Ze's forehead: "Why are you looking at me? If you really can't eat, forget it. I'll take you back to the hospital."
There was a thin layer of calluses on Xiao Zhier's fingertips from practicing the piano. When pressed against the skin, it was not as delicate and soft as Xu Ze had imagined, but it brought a strange feeling that Xu Ze could not explain.
He just lowered his head and took a few big bites, then wiped off the oil stains and followed Xiao Zhier out the door.
In September in Shaocheng, the night wind had already brought a slight chill. Xiao Zhier was in a hurry when he went out, and he only wore a short-sleeved shirt. However, Xu Ze wore a thin windbreaker when he came, so he didn't feel cold at this time.
It was just time for supper when the two of them came over. The street was crowded with people and it was difficult for vehicles to drive in, so Xiao Zhier simply stopped at the intersection. It would take another five or six minutes to walk from the store.
Xiao Zhier trembled slightly for a moment, then he subconsciously stomped his feet and headed towards his car.
At this time, footsteps were approaching rapidly behind him, and a warm windbreaker was draped over his back. Xiao Zhier was startled. He subconsciously turned around and met Xu Ze's eyes that were filled with worry.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Xu Ze seemed to have just realized something. He quickly took a step back and said, "It's cold, Brother Xiao, you should put on your coat."
Xiao Zhier didn't say anything. He just raised his hand to straighten the collar of his windbreaker, said "hmm" softly, and then walked away.
The night breeze gently brushed across his cheeks, the clothes on his body felt warm, and a faint fragrance lingered around him. Xiao Zhier couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his lips. He couldn't help but lower his head to smell the fragrance on his clothes, and even thought about it with some anticipation.
What kind of perfume does Xu Ze use?
Xiao Zhier took a deep breath.
Grass, spicy hot pot flavor.
