"I'm a man and I can't take your things." Lu Jianguo still refused to take the can handed over by Li Jinfeng.
Li Jinfeng was anxious. The first time they met, he gave her three kilograms of national food coupons. This was the second time they met, and he paid two yuan for her medical expenses, and also let her get so much gauze and two bottles of anti-inflammatory medicine for nothing.
Now, she just wanted to give him a can of lychees worth two cents in return, but he refused to take it. Li Jinfeng really didn't know how to face Lu Jianguo.
"Comrade Lu, just take it. Compared to what you helped me with, this can of food is really nothing." Li Jinfeng tried to persuade Lu Jianguo.
But it seemed to be no use, he just didn't answer.
Li Jinfeng couldn't force it on him. As a grown man, his strength and flexibility were far beyond the reach of a skinny girl like Li Jinfeng.
There was no way out, and in the end the can of food returned to Li Jinfeng.
Forget it. This man is too principled. If he says no, he means no.
No matter how much Li Jinfeng talked, it would be a waste of effort. It would be better for her to remember Lu Jianguo's kindness and repay him when he needed her in the future.
"Comrade Lu, I... I have something else to do, we..." When they reached the end of the street, Li Jinfeng stopped and looked at Lu Jianguo embarrassedly.
Fortunately, she was wearing a mask, otherwise, her face, which was red and about to bleed, would have been exposed in front of Lu Jianguo.
Lu Jianguo's expression changed slightly. The distance from the hospital to the end of the street was actually not short, but in Lu Jianguo's eyes, it was completed in the blink of an eye.
He even had a feeling of...reluctance.
Li Jinfeng didn't know what was wrong with her. She had clearly said that she wanted to leave, but her feet seemed to be rooted and she didn't move for a long time.
"Have you had lunch? How about... I treat you?" Li Jinfeng felt dizzy and said "treat you" directly.
After saying that, he felt annoyed again. The other person didn't even want a can of food worth twenty cents from him, so how could he accept his invitation to dinner?
Unexpectedly, just when Li Jinfeng wanted to strangle herself to death, Lu Jianguo actually said the words of agreement, "Okay!"
Li Jinfeng was stunned and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.
"I...should we find a state-owned restaurant to fill our stomachs first?" Li Jinfeng suggested.
Lu Jianguo still nodded, "Yes!"
Finally, Li Jinfeng led the way and the two chose a state-owned restaurant.
As soon as Li Jinfeng entered, she asked Lu Jianguo, "Comrade Lu, what do you want to eat? Rice, or..."
"noodle."
"What about the shredded pork noodles?"
"kindness!"
After talking with Lu Jianguo, Li Jinfeng happily called to the waiter, "Two bowls of shredded pork noodles."
Shredded pork noodles were the most expensive noodles on the entire menu, costing 20 cents and 2 taels of food coupons. Li Jinfeng ordered two bowls, which cost 40 cents and 4 taels of food coupons.
She rummaged through her pockets for food coupons. While she was doing so, Lu Jianguo stood up, walked directly to the counter, and quickly took out forty cents and two taels of food coupons.
Before paying, he asked again, "Do you have braised pork?"
"Yes, it's 2.5 yuan per pound, and includes a meat ticket for one pound." The waiter said without even looking up.
Meat in the market costs fifty cents per pound, but in state-owned restaurants, the price is five times higher.
But Lu Jianguo said nothing. He took out another two dollars and fifty cents, plus a pound of meat ticket, and handed it to the waiter, "A pound of braised pork."
