Chapter 61 Variables
Pei Yuezhou agreed to withdraw the bodyguards, but he couldn't let it go in his heart. He specially gave Yu Zhi a watch so that he could locate Yu Zhi at any time in a critical moment.
At this moment, Yu Zhi, who had originally planned to go to Hainasen, suddenly lost the idea.
When she was bored, she was browsing her circle of friends and saw Lu Zhuoyuan recommending a noodle restaurant. He praised it highly, which aroused her curiosity.
When the state-banquet-level chef at home learned that Yu Zhi was going to run several kilometers for a wild chef, he silently picked up a bowl of lemon juice that was originally intended to be used as seasoning and drank it, then looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.
The small noodle shop is not located in a busy street market, but is hidden in an alley shaded by plane trees.
The decoration is not luxurious, but it exudes a kind of comfort that has been accumulated over the years. Several small wooden tables are close to each other, but it does not seem crowded.
Yu Zhi found a seat and sat down at random, and immediately ordered the crab roe noodles that Lu Zhuoyuan strongly recommended.
When it is served on the table, the golden crab roe is wrapped in smooth alkaline noodles and sprinkled with chopped green onions. It looks shiny and glossy, which makes you very hungry just by looking at it.
She was eating happily when several guests sat down at the table opposite her.
There were three girls and one boy, all of them looked like high school students around 17 or 18 years old.
The girls gathered together, looking shy, and the boy also sat uncomfortably, his eyes wandering around, not knowing where to look.
The old man who was writing down the menu nearby seemed to have seen this scene many times. He took a look and joked, "Oh, is this an online relationship meeting in person?"
The words hit the nail on the head. The table fell silent instantly and the atmosphere became even more tense.
The heroine, sandwiched between her two best friends, wanted to bury her head under the table.
Grandpa didn't care and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay, it's okay. Let's order first and talk while we eat."
Because there were so many people, in addition to a bowl of noodles each, they also ordered several stir-fried dishes.
Halfway through his meal, the boy suddenly stopped eating and timidly looked up at the three girls across from him: "Um... which one of you is my girlfriend?"
The girl who was sandwiched between the two sides suddenly blushed and her voice was as thin as a mosquito's hum.
Yu Zhi took in the entire scene and couldn't help but whisper to Xiao Shui beside her, "So this is what it's like to meet someone in real life after being socially anxious online."
[Host, please don't pry into other people's privacy. The boy across from you is almost losing his temper because of your staring.]
Yu Zhi: "Sau Rui~"
It’s not her fault. They were just too close, and it was hard for Yu Zhi not to notice.
While the other side was arguing, the heroine suddenly stood up and took her two best friends to the bathroom.
The boy's pressure suddenly dropped, and even the food tasted delicious. He hurriedly ate several mouthfuls of peas.
Before he could swallow it, he happened to meet the eyes of the girl who came back to get paper. His face turned red immediately and he was so scared that he spat out peas.
Yu Zhi quickly took her noodles and retreated to the table behind her. As soon as she sat down, she saw Yu Huaizhang who was stunned.
Yu Zhi was a little surprised: "It's you."
The other party came back to his senses: "What a coincidence, we meet again."
The boy at that table who lost his composure came over to apologize to Yu Zhi in time after adjusting himself.
Yu Zhi didn't bother with him and waved her hand nonchalantly.
The noodle shop was not big, and it was dinner time, so there were no empty seats. The table where Yu Zhi had just been had been slaughtered, and she really didn't want to go back.
"Brother, do you mind sharing a table?"
Fearing that Yu Huaizhang would refuse, Yu Zhi added, "I still have half a bowl left, and I'll finish it soon."
Yu Huaizhang was picking up noodles with chopsticks. He looked up at what he said and said in a calm voice, "Please do as you please."
He ordered a bowl of clear soup noodles with chopped green onions floating on the soup. He ate neither fast nor slow, and even chewed so lightly that the sound was almost inaudible. He looked like a well-educated person.
Yu Zhi's movements were obviously faster. Although the other party was easy to talk to, no one would want to sit down and taste the food carefully with a stranger.
She finished the remaining crab roe noodles in a few mouthfuls and put down her chopsticks: "Goodbye.
Yu Huaizhang nodded slightly, but his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of Yu Zhi turning and walking towards the message board not far away.
She lowered her head and wrote on the note for a long time. After she finished writing, she pressed it on the board and turned to leave the noodle shop.
The autumn sky was high and the air was crisp. The doors and windows of the store were open. A cool breeze blew in and blew down the note that Yu Zhi had not affixed tightly.
It spun lightly and landed right next to Yu Huaizhang's hand.
He paused, staring at the beige paper for a moment, and finally picked it up. On it was written neatly and beautifully:
——The noodles are delicious, highly recommended, but be careful when encountering pea shooters!
Yu Huaizhang looked at the line of words, the corners of his mouth curled up almost imperceptibly, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
It's quite interesting.
When he left, he came to the message board and stuck the note back firmly.

Before Yu Zhi went home, she bought herself the first cup of milk tea in autumn. Afraid that Pei Yuezhou would see her and nag her, she hid outside and drank it secretly before driving back.
Just as I turned the corner, my phone rang. Song Nuan's voice pierced through the receiver: "I've arranged everything here. I'm just waiting for you to start work tomorrow. Remember to yell for help when the time comes. Don't mess up the performance."
Yu Zhi tapped her fingertips on the steering wheel, her tone tentative, "How about... I sign up for a crash course in acting now? What if my screams aren't heartbreaking enough, or if they don't seem genuine enough?"
Song Nuan could be heard rummaging through something from the other end, and said in silence, "Please, this is about as difficult as playing house in kindergarten. Don't overdo it."
Yu Zhi had no choice but to give up the idea, but her tone suddenly became serious: "It's like this, as the victim of this incident, I would like to make a small request."
"you say."
"Can you wait until I'm full before taking action? What if I delay too long and the other party abuses me as a victim and doesn't give me food? If I get hypoglycemia then, wouldn't that be very troublesome?"
Song Nuan was silent for two seconds, and finally compromised: "Eat something before nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
"And, and," Yu Zhi pressed on, "Tell them not to use ropes that are too thick. I just got my new manicure inlaid with diamonds, it would be a shame if they were worn out."
Song Nuan took a breath, "Yu Zhi, you're going to stage a kidnapping, not go on vacation!"
Then, she couldn't stand it anymore and hung up the phone.
Yu Zhi couldn't help but chuckle: "How come these sisters have no sense of humor at all?"
[Host, you are so carefree. No one knows what the situation will be like tomorrow. What if there are any unexpected changes...]
Xiaoshui was interrupted by a sharp brake before she could finish her words.
Because there was a car blocking the road ahead, standing straight across the middle of the road, as if it was waiting for something to happen.
Yu Zhi sensed something was wrong and just as she turned the steering wheel to turn around, the shadow of another car appeared in the rearview mirror, blocking her retreat.
The doors of the front and rear cars opened at the same time, and several strong men in black jackets walked down. They all had fierce looks on their faces, and their eyes were fixed on her car accurately.
The smile on Yu Zhi's face instantly faded away, and she curled her lips: "Xiao Shui, your crow's mouth skill is quite good."
[Oh my god! This this this… How about I activate my buff and rush out now?!]
Xiaoshui's voice was trembling.
Yu Zhi's fingertips slid quickly across the watch on her wrist, accurately pressing the inconspicuous metal protrusion on the inside of the dial, and a barely audible vibration came from her fingertips.
"It's too late." She whispered.
There were already "bang bang" sounds coming from outside the car window, and the tempered glass was buzzing due to the vibration.
Yu Zhi's eyes flashed, and she calmly took out the gun from her bag and stuffed it neatly into her boots, letting the cold metal stick to her calf muscles and hide it. Her movements were so fast that the afterimage was almost invisible.
The roars of the strong men came through the glass. One of them was kicking the car door lock hard, and the sound of metal clashing was so sharp that it made your teeth ache...
