"We two are really amazing to have come up with such a brilliant idea. I can already imagine the amazing looks on their faces tomorrow night. Just thinking about it makes me so happy and I'm really looking forward to tomorrow night," they said.
"Alright, since you're really looking forward to tomorrow night, then get a good rest tonight and recharge so you can enjoy the show even more, right?"
Song Lili thought Zhang Qinghua was absolutely right, so she quickly climbed into bed, lay in the covers, closed her eyes, and tried to fall asleep.
Tomorrow is a day she's really looking forward to, and she hopes they won't let her down tomorrow night.
With these thoughts in mind, Song Lili quickly drifted off to sleep.
Zhang Qinghua was caught off guard. He hadn't expected that Lili, at her age, would still be so childlike and playful.
Just one sentence decided the fate of those people tomorrow night.
However, Zhang Qinghua was also very much looking forward to that scene and to tomorrow night.
The next evening, just as they had agreed the night before, everyone came to Song Lili's house.
However, they were shocked to hear devastating news: Song Lili had not cooked for them and they had to do it themselves.
The first person to arrive was Wang Daming. He had been thinking about Song Lili's cooking all day, so he rushed back as soon as it was time to leave work, wanting to be the first to eat Song Lili's cooking.
However, to her surprise, Song Lili told her that she hadn't cooked dinner that night and that they should cook for themselves if they wanted to eat.
Wang Daming was so angry he wanted to smash the wall. He had finally gotten such an opportunity, but who would have thought that Lili would pull such a stunt?
Lili had never done anything like this before. In the past, she would always fulfill their requests.
So this time, the answer was different, which still surprised Wang Daming greatly.
However, when he heard that the last few people to arrive were cooking, Wang Daming became very interested and wanted to know who they were.
So he stopped being angry and sat down with Song Lili, patiently waiting for the last few people to arrive.
The second person to arrive was Song Fang, because she thought there would be many people eating at home today, and she came to find someone who could help her sister.
To her surprise, the answer was so delightful. Not only did she not need to cook, but she could also sit there and wait for someone else to cook for her.
This is such a wonderful surprise, isn't it?
Song Fang also joined the waiting group with great interest, wanting to see who would be unlucky today.
The three of them, each with a cup of tea, were thoroughly enjoying themselves.
Even though Wang Daming's stomach was growling with hunger, he was still very interested in waiting.
I just wanted to see the expressions on the other people's faces when they found out they were going to cook.
He was willing to starve himself to wait for this momentous occasion.
Wang Daming felt that dinner wasn't the main point tonight; the main point was who would be the last to arrive.
The third person to arrive was Song Jianshe. He had come early because he finished work early today, and unexpectedly escaped a disaster. He was not among the last few to arrive.
"Alright, now there are only two people left. Let them cook."
That leaves only Daqing and Chuci.
Song Li, you have no idea whether these two can cook or not, so this is even more interesting.
I wonder how furious the other two will be when they hear this news.
The second to last person to arrive was Chu Ci. He had left work early and gone home, but Song Fang wasn't home, so he needed to take care of the children.
After settling the children in, we'll have dinner in the alley.
But he heard news that struck him like a bolt from the blue: he would have to cook for someone else.
Chu Ci was stunned. Apart from cooking a few meals when he was a sent-down youth in Hongqi Village, he really hadn't cooked since.
Song Fang has always done all the cooking at home and has never asked him to cook.
Therefore, this request was so sudden that even Chu Ci found it unbelievable.
He looked at Song Lili and the others and asked, "How could you come up with such an idea? Are you deliberately trying to mess with me?"
"Or are you actually lying to me, and the food was already prepared, and you're just fooling me?"
Chu Ci shared the same thought as Wang Daming: they believed that Song Lili was definitely prepared.
Based on past experience, Song Lili would prepare a large table of food every time she came to the hutong for a meal.
Therefore, Chu Ci didn't really believe the idea of him cooking.
Wang Daming glanced at Song Lili, then at Chu Ci, and walked up to Chu Ci, shaking his head.
"Brother, you've got it wrong today. Lily really didn't cook. I thought the same thing as you."
"But I've already checked the kitchen, and the ingredients are ready, but we haven't actually cooked it."
"So for the rest of the time, it will be hard on you and Daqing, since you two are the last to arrive."
After saying that, Wang Daming laughed gleefully.
Watching the smile on Chu Ci's face gradually disappear, followed by astonishment, disbelief, and finally helplessness and resignation.
This series of changes is truly very, very interesting.
Wang Daming was now somewhat looking forward to seeing what kind of expression Daqing would have when she heard the news.
Hopefully, Daqing's expression will be even more interesting than Chu Ci's, so that their long wait here won't be in vain.
It took Chu Ci a long time to accept this.
Then, we sat there and waited with everyone for the final celebration to arrive.
Although he was the unfortunate one who contracted the virus, Chu Ci was also eager to try it out.
I just wanted to see how Daqing would react when he heard this terrible news.
It's different when one person is unlucky versus two people are unlucky. When you share the misfortune with someone, it doesn't feel as bad.
Chu Ci waited for Da Qing to come and share his own terrible feelings with him, and then the two of them would feel terrible together, which would make him feel a little better.
A group of people in their thirties waited childishly in the main room, just to see Daqing's astonished expression.
Zhang Shengtian and Wu Jiang were not interested in such things at all, and were quite helpless, unable to understand why they would do such a thing.
