I walked in and handed her five hundred.
"This month's food expenses."
Yang Xue looked at me like I was a fool: "No, no, and besides, aren't you going to leave after just a few days?"
I stuffed it directly into her hand, then turned around, waved my hand in a self-righteous manner, and said loudly in the corridor: "Even if I leave, I can just send you a message in advance when I want to come. Anyway, you can't let me starve this month."
I said this, but I was thinking: I definitely won't come back after school. It's so far, it's not worth it. Just consider it a good deed. I'm such a warm-hearted person. I can't bear to see sad things. Even if it makes me tired and suffer, I want to protect others from the storm. I'm almost done with buying a gift for Mengxi. If it doesn't work out, I'll ask Zhu Wei to borrow some.
A large man's voice could be heard from another room in the hallway: "Why are dogs barking so early in the morning? Can't you let me get some sleep?"
I was startled and looked back at Yang Xue. Yang Xue stuck her head out and covered her mouth with her hands while laughing. I quickly ran away. If I was caught and they called the police for disturbing the public, I would be in trouble.
Soon, I arrived at Zhu Wei's house. I opened the door. The layout of the room was good, but the sound insulation was not very good. As soon as I walked to his door, I heard strange noises, and then I leaned over quietly and listened.
I thought: Have these two been busy all night? They are so energetic.
After listening for two or three minutes, I shook my head and thought: Am I a pervert? Listen to this.
Then I walked into the room they arranged for me, and looking at the made bed and quilt, I felt warm in my heart.
After washing up and turning on my phone, I still didn’t receive any message from Meng Xi.
I called her, but the phone was turned off.
I decided to send a message to Mengxi: I miss you, every day, what have you been doing these past two days? You're so busy, call me back when you have time, good night.
I was a little panicked, but I didn't know what to do, so I fell asleep while thinking.
I slept until two o'clock in the afternoon, stretched, opened my phone and saw a message from Mengxi: I'm a little busy these two days.
I called, but it still showed as turned off. I rolled my eyes and thought, as long as it's okay, I'll ignore it for now.
I got up, brushed my teeth and washed my face. After I was done, I put on my clothes and went out. There were two buns and a note on the dining table.
Looking at the note: Silly Yu, Xu Qian and I are going out to play, remember to eat the treasure your father bought for you when you get up.
"Damn it, you must be confused from all the trouble last night. You even wrote the word 'bao' wrong?" I scolded with a smile.
Then the phone rang. It was Yang Xue, and I picked up the phone.
"Come and eat, it's ready."
When I heard that, I remembered that I had already paid my living expenses yesterday. I looked at the cold Baozi on the table and then replied, "Here I come."
I picked up the two buns and went downstairs. Zhu Wei and the others didn't drive the car, so I opened the door and drove towards Yang Xue's house at full speed.
As soon as I walked in, I saw Yang Xue washing a pot. There was a small rice cooker next to her. She smiled and poured me a bowl of rice and said, "Eat first. I'll be right there."
"Let's eat together. I don't have the habit of eating alone first."
Hearing this, she looked at me, nodded helplessly, and filled another bowl.
We walked in and there were two dishes on the table, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and stir-fried meat with green peppers.
I took a bite and said, "This dish is absolutely amazing."
Yang Xue smiled and said proudly, "Well, I started cooking when I was eleven years old, which is almost fifteen years now."
"Whoever marries you in the future will be so blessed."
She looked at me, then lowered her head in disappointment: "But many people will care about my experience."
I looked into her eyes and said, "How could that be? That's all in the past. Why bother with that? I don't believe there are still people with that kind of thinking in today's society. Who hasn't been impulsive?"
She looked up, her eyes trembling slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't you dislike a woman like me?"
I shook my head and said with a firm look in my eyes, "To be honest, if someone is willing to live a stable life with me in the future, I don't care about her past. I only care about whether she can live a good life with me and support me through thick and thin. Of course, that's all in the future."
She started eating, glancing at me from time to time.
I rolled my eyes: "Can you stop staring at me? I'm getting goosebumps."
"Isn't it okay to look at you because you're pretty?" She said as she picked up a piece of meat for me.
I took a big bite of the meat she had picked up and said narcissistically, "He is indeed handsome, I cannot deny that, but you must not fall in love with me, after all, I am already taken."
Yang Xue paused, then smiled and said nothing more.
It was really delicious. I even finished all the chili peppers.
"Are you not full?"
I burped. "I'm full. I haven't eaten so well in a long time. Even meat and fish can't compare to this."
After washing the dishes and taking out the trash, they went to work together, chatting about irrelevant things along the way.
The days that followed were basically "green and green". I didn't see that woman again at Zhu Wei's house or Yang Xue's place. The morning of the 8th came uneventfully.
I asked for three days off from school. No one at the university cared and it was approved quickly. At noon, I drove to "Qingcong" and called Manager Meng, who asked me to come upstairs.
I arrived at his office. Manager Meng patted his big belly, stood up, and said with a smile, "Xiao Yu, what do you think of this place?"
I nodded and said, "Very good, no matter what aspect."
"If you're interested, would you like to work part-time for me on weekends?"
I thought about it and said perfunctorily but couldn't lose face: "Sure, I'll come as long as I'm free."
