Chapter 11
"Don't play along with me!" Mi Xiangxiang pushed Qiu Yi's shoulder and said, "Every classmate of yours calls me boss lady. You get angry when they call you by your name. Today, when this little boy comes, you ask him to call me sister. Tell me! What's the relationship between you two?"
Qiu Yi sighed helplessly: "At present, we are really classmates."
The meaning of this sentence was too obvious, so Mi Xiangxiang asked, "What about the future?"
Qiu Yi smiled slightly and said nothing.
"I forgot to ask, what's his name?"
"Tao Luanxi."
Mi Xiangxiang took a breath of cool air: "You said before that the person you like is named Tao, are you talking about him?"
Qiu Yi nodded, walked to the bar and got a glass of water by himself: "It's hard to believe that you haven't found a girl named Tao in our class after asking around for half a month."
Mi Xiangxiang pretended to hit him again: "Who knew that you liked a boy?"
Qiu Yi shrugged: "There's nothing I can do. I just fell in love with him. It won't work if it's not him. What do you say I should do?"
"Qiu Yi," Mi Xiangxiang's face looked a little ugly: "Are you taking revenge on your mother?"
Qiu Yi drank the water in the cup, took the empty cup and turned on the tap to rinse it.
"I won't do such a thing, don't worry!" Qiu Yi turned his back to Mi Xiangxiang, and his voice was emotionless: "Who I like is my own business, and has nothing to do with anyone else."
Qiu Yi wiped his wet hands with a piece of paper, turned around and leaned on the bar: "Can you please go to the kitchen to cook now? Our Xixi is starving to death."
Tao Luanxi sat obediently with her hands on her knees, but she was actually getting extremely impatient waiting and wanted to swallow the small plant on the table in one gulp.
Finally, footsteps were heard on the stairs. Tao Luanxi raised his head and stared in the direction of the sound with bright eyes, only to see Qiu Yi coming up with a plate of fruit.
Tao Luanxi looked disappointed: "Is the meal not ready yet?"
"It's freshly made, so it may not be ready that fast. Wait a moment and eat some fruit first." Qiu Yi pushed the plate in front of Tao Luanxi. The bright red sugar-mixed tomatoes in the white porcelain plate looked fresh and tempting.
But now Tao Luanxi is not interested.
"I want to eat."
"It will be ready soon. Try this first to whet your appetite." Qiu Yi coaxed her while forking a tomato and putting it to Tao Luanxi's mouth: "This is grown in Sister Xiangxiang's own backyard. It tastes good. Try it."
Tao Luanxi had no choice. This was the only food on the plate that could fill her stomach, so she had to take the fork from Qiu Yi and put the small piece of tomato into her mouth.
The slightly sour juice burst in the mouth along with the granular white sugar, fresh and appetizing. Tao Luanxi's appetite was aroused after eating one piece, and he ate most of the plate piece by piece.
"That's enough." Qiu Yi blocked it with his hand. Tao Luanxi immediately frowned unhappily and glared at Qiu Yi while chewing his food.
Why won't you let me eat?
Qiu Yi laughed at his expression, "It's not that I don't allow you to eat, it's just that it's cold after all. If you eat too much, we'll have to serve hot dishes later so you don't feel uncomfortable. Save some room for the meat later."
Tao Luanxi swallowed the tomato in his mouth and was about to speak when Mi Xiangxiang came upstairs with a plate of food.
"It's time to eat!" Mi Xiangxiang quickly put several dishes on the table and then handed the rice to Tao Luanxi.
"Xiao Tao, right? Sorry for the long wait. Come eat quickly!"
"Thank you, Sister Xiangxiang." Tao Luanxi took the bowl and chopsticks, reached out to pick up a piece of boiled pork and put it in her mouth. After chewing it for a few times, Xiangxiang smiled and said, "It's delicious. Sister Xiangxiang's cooking skills are really good."
This was probably the first time Mi Xiangxiang had dealt with a boy like Tao Luanxi. She was a little stunned by his smiling face and couldn't help but sigh, "This kid is quite well behaved. He's really lovable."
After saying that, he turned his face and gave Qiu Yi a look, saying in an ambiguous way: "Don't bully an honest child!"
Qiu Yi was unhappy: "Who bullied him?" I was so hurt that I didn't even have time to feel it!
Mi Xiangxiang snorted and went downstairs with her empty plate. As soon as she left, Tao Luanxi picked up her chopsticks and tasted all the dishes in front of her with anticipation.
This is delicious!
This is delicious too!
Tao Luanxi was busy and having fun, and Qiu Yi was watching with a smile on his face, giving Tao Luanxi some food from time to time.
"I'm not lying to you, am I? Sister Xiangxiang's cooking skills are very good, but she usually doesn't entertain outsiders. She only cooks a little when I bring people over." Qiu Yi poured a glass of water for Tao Luanxi and handed it to him.
Although the hot dishes were delicious, they were still a bit spicy after a few more bites. Tao Luanxi hissed a few times, took the cup that Qiu Yi handed over and drank a few sips. The cold water took away some of the spiciness. Tao Luanxi put down the cup and asked, "Why doesn't she open a restaurant?"
Qiu Yi picked up the chopsticks and fiddled with the celery in his bowl, with a somewhat lonely smile on his face: "She only cooks for me."
Tao Luanxi had just scooped up a spoonful of Mapo Tofu when he heard Qiu Yi's words. He paused in his chewing and stared at Qiu Yi, blinking.
"Then, enjoy it." Tao Luanxi put the spoonful of tofu into Qiu Yi's bowl, and said seriously, "It's shameful to waste food!"
Qiu Yi smiled: "Will you help me pick up some food?"
The light in the other person's eyes made Tao Luanxi feel uncomfortable. Tao Luanxi pretended not to care and shrugged: "It's a matter of reciprocity."
Qiu Yi ate all the tofu in the bowl and tilted his head to look at Tao Luanxi: "Xixi, I want to eat the fresh mushroom heart in front of you."
Tao Luanxi gave Qiu Yi a cold shoulder and said with a look of disgust: "Are you mean?" Then he pushed the plate of Chinese cabbage in front of Qiu Yi: "If you want to eat it, pick it up yourself!"
The meal was eaten very quickly. Tao Luanxi felt that she had eaten a little too much. When she stood up, she took a deep breath and shrunk her stomach. When she went downstairs, there were a few more customers in the store. Mi Xiangxiang was making milk tea. When she heard someone coming downstairs, she turned around and smiled at Tao Luanxi: "Are you full?"
Tao Luanxi nodded: "Very full, the food tastes especially good!"
"If you like, come with Qiu Yi next time!"
"Thank you, Sister Xiangxiang." Tao Luanxi smiled, took out her cell phone from her pocket, and looked around the wall for the QR code.
"No need," Qiu Yi hung up Tao Luanxi's phone, "You don't have to pay for your meal here."
"This...is not good!"
"What's the big deal? Qiu Yi, that damned brat, has never given me a dime, so why should I ask you to give him anything? Hurry up and go to class, don't be late!"
Seeing his attitude, Tao Luanxi felt that it would be inappropriate to force him to give it to her, so she thanked him again and left with Qiu Yi.
After leaving the alley, Tao Luanxi took out his phone: "What's your WeChat ID?"
"What?" Qiu Yi smiled and reached out to take the phone.
"…I'll transfer the meal money to you."
"I said no, don't bother with it." Qiu Yi took out his hand and walked forward. Before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly took out his cell phone: "You'd better give it to me!"
Qiu Yi tapped a few times on his phone: "Should I scan you or you scan me?"
Tao Luanxi saw what this guy was up to at a glance, and quickly made a gesture of rejection: "Just scan the QR code for me, no need to add friends."
Qiu Yi grinned and said, "Sorry, we don't support QR code transfers. We can only add friends."
Tao Luanxi took back the phone: "Then I won't transfer it. I'll give you cash later."
"Oh, by the way, I also have my fitness coach's number on WeChat, do you want it?"
“……” Damn! This guy just knows how to poke my soft spot!
The two men were in a stalemate for several minutes. Tao Luanxi lowered his head and muttered a few words. A few children playing outside passed by and just blocked his voice.
"What did you say?"
"I said! I'll sweep you!"
