But this is nothing to Lu Xiangxiang, she has space to grow crops.
So she really doesn't lack these two things, she has plenty of them.
She took out an unopened bag of red dates and wolfberries and gave it to him. "Drinking this in water is good for your health."
Zhou Ziheng took it and said, "Thank you."
Suddenly, as if remembering something, she said, "I haven't treated Captain Zhou to a meal yet. It just so happens that my salary was paid yesterday, so I'll treat you today."
The girl looked at him with a pair of sparkling eyes, making it impossible to refuse.
He nodded.
She smiled and said, "Then let's go to a state-owned restaurant for lunch? Which one do you want to go to?"
"Anything is fine." He's not picky about this.
Fine, let her arrange it herself.
The nearest state-owned restaurant would be fine, she thought.
Time passed quickly. The morning was spent in a busy manner, and noon came quickly. When it was time to get off work, everyone went to the cafeteria.
Lu Tiezhu and the others asked Lu Xiangxiang if she wanted to join them, but she shook her head and said no.
After they left, only Zhou Ziheng and Lu Xiangxiang were left here. She sat at the desk waiting for him.
Finally he finished, and she stood up and joined him.
Sun Mei has packed her meal. She doesn't like to eat in the cafeteria, but prefers to take it back to the dormitory to eat.
When she came back, she happened to see Lu Xiangxiang and Zhou Ziheng pushing the cart out. Looking at their backs as they left, a hint of gossip flashed in her eyes.
Where are these two people going in the middle of the day?
When a single man and a single woman go out together, something happens.
In order to save time, Zhou Ziheng took her to the nearest state-owned restaurant on his bike.
"What would Captain Zhou like to eat?"
"Let's take a look at the menu." You can't order dishes in state-owned restaurants. You can only look at the daily menu, and only the dishes on the menu can be ordered.
The two walked to the window together. Because they were wearing police uniforms, the waiter's attitude was quite good.
He listened to them with a gentle expression, wrote the menu and asked them to pay.
Lu Xiangxiang took out her bag, which contained a lot of bills. She had to find them one by one.
I have both meat and grain coupons. They were given to me when I got my salary yesterday.
After paying enough for the ticket, I waited for my meal with my number tag.
They arrived quite early and there were plenty of empty seats.
The two found a place to sit down, and just as they sat down, a familiar voice rang out.
"Comrade Lu, you are here too?" A joyful voice sounded. She turned around and saw Song Jiarui smiling and waving at her.
There was a flash of surprise in her eyes, "Comrade Song, why are you here?"
"We were passing by on our way to work, so we ate here," he said with a smile.
Behind him was a group of people who were obviously cadres. One of them called his name. He nodded to Lu Xiangxiang and returned to the team.
During this time, his eyes swept over Zhou Ziheng, and their eyes met and then shifted away.
At the same time, their expressions turned cold, but Lu Xiangxiang didn't notice.
"How are you getting along with Uncle Zhong lately?"
"I still have a lot to learn from Uncle Zhong." Although Uncle Zhong had not received as systematic training as she had, his nearly forty years of experience was unmatched. She benefited a lot from studying with him.
"Uncle Zhong will retire at the end of the year. You'll be the only official medical examiner in our bureau. Will you feel any pressure?"
"No, don't we still have Comrade Zhong Zhihe?" With Zhong Zhihe around, everything she does will be much easier.
"That's good. If that doesn't work, I can help you delay Uncle Zhong's retirement."
"That's not necessary." Uncle Zhong has been working in this industry for almost forty years and is almost sixty years old. It is time for him to retire long ago.
Stopping him from retiring would be like killing someone for their money, so she couldn't do such a thing.
So she refused Uncle Zhong's offer to stay without thinking. She had already told Uncle Zhong that she could still come to him if she encountered a difficult job that she didn't know how to do.
The two talked about what happened at the police station for a while, and while they were talking, the waiter shouted directly in front.
"Dish number 25 is ready."
The two men stood up, and Zhou Ziheng said, "You stay here and I'll go."
"How can I not go with you?" She shook her head to refuse his words.
The two of them didn't say anything else and went to serve the dishes together.
The two of them ordered a large bowl of rice and three dishes, which was quite a large meal for two people.
After picking up their chopsticks, the two sat down. There were two meat dishes and one vegetable dish in front of them, one was stir-fried beef with celery, the other was chicken nuggets, and there was also a bowl of blanched lettuce.
The chicken nuggets were not from a whole chicken but from half a chicken. They were really cut from half a chicken. He picked out the chicken leg from the top and gave it to her.
She looked at the huge chicken leg in the bowl, glanced at the person opposite her, and took the chicken leg back.
"Captain, you eat it. I don't like chicken legs."
Zhou Ziheng: ...
How could anyone not like it? It must be a compliment.
Just as he was about to return the chicken leg, he saw her covering the mouth of the bowl with her hand.
Well, now he knew that she really didn't like it, and it was not nice to keep making excuses, so he didn't continue.
The chefs in state-owned restaurants are all very good at cooking. Also, chefs now have to take exams.
The junior level is just a formal chef who can only help out. If you want to be able to really cook, you have to be a fourth-level chef, which is just a chef in an ordinary restaurant.
For example, in Kyoto, you generally need to be at level five, otherwise you can't be a chef at all. It's just like people go to high places and water flows to low places.
Having a meal like this for a long time has a unique flavor. The two of them finished it quickly and sat there to drink some tea.
After eating and drinking, it was time to go back for lunch. Before leaving, she passed by Song Jiarui's table and smiled at him: "I'm leaving first."
"Yeah." Song Jiarui nodded.
I watched the graceful figure leave with a melancholy look in my eyes. Who was the person next to her?
He was guessing in his heart, when suddenly the person next to him laughed: "Xiao Song, who is that girl?"
"It's my friend." He came back to his senses when he heard the leader's teasing voice.
"Not just ordinary friends?"
"We're friends." He skipped the word "ordinary".
"That girl looks quite good, good-looking and has a good career. Xiao Song was not moved by so many people who introduced her to him before. It turns out he has such high standards."
Have high standards?
Maybe???
That’s not right, he just had a feeling for that face.
He doesn't know whether she is excellent or not. There is no such thing as too much to say about feelings. If you like someone, you just like them.
"Then you have to work hard." The leader said meaningfully.
Both Lu Xiangxiang and Zhou Ziheng were wearing police uniforms, and there was no ambiguity in their words, as if they were just colleagues having a meal together.
With such a beautiful girl right in front of you, who can resist being moved?
He smiled and said nothing, but he knew he had to work harder.
Because they had just eaten, the two of them did not ride their bikes back, but walked at the same time.
The weather in November was very cold, and the trees on the roadside were a little depressed.
Some yellow leaves kept falling from above.
