“Knock, knock, knock…”
"Who is it, so late at night?" Old Zhang, cigarette in hand, heard the door open outside. He stopped polishing the shiny stove and shouted outside, "It's so late at night, and someone comes just after I closed the door."
The person outside seemed not to hear and continued knocking on the door.
"I'm coming, I'm coming, stop knocking." Old Zhang put the towel he used to wipe his sweat over his body and walked towards the door. Looking at the alarm clock on the wall, it was already 12:15 midnight.
When I opened the door, I saw a young man with water dripping from his body and a pale face.
Seeing Old Zhang open the door, the young man said, "Boss, do you have anything to eat? Even a sip of hot soup would be fine."
"What happened to you? Did you fall into the water? It's the middle of the night, and you shouldn't be careful. If I hadn't been waiting for my daughter to get off her night shift, I would have closed the shop and left. Luckily you ran into me. Here, come in and wipe yourself." Old Zhang handed the young man a towel and turned to let him in.
Seeing the young people all wrinkled from being soaked, Old Zhang said as he started cooking noodles, "You young people just don't take your health seriously. Why are you swimming so late at night? Even though it's hot now, the water is cool at night. We're in the north, and the weather is not like in the south."
He refilled the pot with water, took out a cigarette, lit it, blew on it until scarlet sparks appeared, and handed it to the young man. "Have a cigarette, you'll feel better."
The young man took it with both hands, thanked him, and started inhaling.
Old Zhang moved quickly and brought a bowl of steaming beef noodles to the young man.
A big bowl of beef noodles, topped with beef, red soup base, snow-white noodles, black beef, and covered with chopped green onions and coriander, exudes a charming aroma.
The young man didn't bother to say thank you and started eating with big mouthfuls.
After eating a few mouthfuls of noodles, the young man's complexion seemed to have improved a lot.
“Ding-ling-ling…”
Old Zhang picked up the phone and went into the kitchen to clean up while speaking loudly to the person on the phone: "Hey, wife, go to sleep first. Xiao Ai hasn't answered the phone yet. She hasn't gotten off work yet."
"I know, I've already taken care of it. Don't worry about it. You're not feeling well. Go to bed early. Don't wait for us. We'll be back soon."
"Okay, okay, okay, I'm not smoking. There's a young man eating noodles in the store right now. When I'm done here, I'll go to Xiao Ai's company to pick her up. Don't worry."
"Okay, okay, I know. Just lock the door and we'll be back soon."
After Old Zhang hung up the phone, he said to the outside, "How is it, young man? Is my noodles delicious? Is it enough? If not, add more."
There was silence outside, no response.
Old Zhang walked out and saw that there was only a pair of empty bowls and chopsticks left on the table, with a banknote pressed underneath.
"This kid runs so fast." Old Zhang put the money in his pocket, then turned and went into the kitchen with the bowl in his hand.
......
Seeing that there was only one week left before the exam, Xu Yi rubbed her sore eyes as she looked at the densely packed words on the professional textbook.
"I've almost finished reading the book. How about a live broadcast for a while to relax?"
She did what she said. She returned to the dormitory, took out the mask and turned on the computer.
There is no one else in 305 now. They are all still studying with books in the library. Xu Yi doesn't have to worry too much. She opens the live broadcast room and clicks to start the live broadcast.
"Hi, dear netizens, I, Xu Banxian, am here again. I haven't seen you for a few days, and I miss you so much.
Do you guys miss me?
Oh, by the way, I have a final exam next week. After today's live broadcast, I have to review hard for the exam. See you in a week."
【Wow, the half-immortal is back again. 】
[As a fellow student, the Taoist priest actually has time to live stream. I can't wait to go to the cafeteria. Today, I almost got into a fight while trying to reserve a seat in the library.]
[Don't remind me of my final exams. It's a headache! I have a feeling I'm going to fail this semester. Woohoo.]
I regret studying electronic information. I'm overwhelmed by the textbooks I need to complete.
[Master, muah muah muah, bless me to have a smooth final exam. ]
"Sister Banxian, I'm going to be picked today. I want to know if I can get into my dream school this time on the college entrance exam. The exam is only a few days away, and I'm so nervous."
Looking at the frantic comments section and the rapidly increasing number of people in the live broadcast room, Xu Yi said to the screen:
"Most people have arrived, let's get to the point. As usual, three divinations, one thousand."
[May the heavens and the earth bless me, today is the luckiest day for me!]
【I was picked, me, me! 】
Xu Yi said to the little girl on the phone screen: "Hello, the future is bright. What can I ask you?"
The future is beautiful. He wears black-framed glasses, has smooth hair, and looks very gentle. He wears a pure white short-sleeved shirt, and has a student vibe.
She thought for a moment, looked at the locked door behind her, and then mustered up the courage to say:
"Hello, Sister Banxian, I want to ask about someone. I want to know his whereabouts. Is that okay?"
Xu Yi nodded: "Sure, do you have a photo of him or his birth date?"
The future is beautiful. I have been following Xu Yi's live broadcast room for a long time. Knowing Xu Yi's rules, I immediately sent the money and photos: "Yes, I sent it, please help me take a look."
"Okay, let me see." Xu Yi clicked on the photo while chatting with this gentle little sister.
[Sister, look at me, look at me. Can we be friends? Add me on WeChat? I'm not a bad person.]
