According to Yuan Wu's habit in the past, he wouldn't take the initiative to ask such a question, because the answer would make him feel like he couldn't bear it or deal with it.
But he didn't know what happened today, although he didn't think about how to answer if Lin Chengbu really wanted to know this, he still asked.
Mouth out of control.
Or out of control
Yuan Wu squeezed a strip of bacon out of the lunch box and put it in his mouth.
"I wanted to ask," Lin Chengbu said, "but after you say that, I don't dare to ask."
"Then don't ask." Yuan Wu said.
Lin Chengbu didn't cooperate, he asked very clearly when he finished speaking, "Did you miss me?"
Yuan Wu didn't speak, swallowed the bacon in his mouth, squeezed another piece and put it in his mouth, and slowly finished eating before opening his mouth: "A little... I think about it."
There was no Lin Chengbu's voice in the receiver, it was very quiet.
"What's wrong?" Yuan Wu asked.
"No," Lin Chengbu replied after a while, "it's just a little emotional."
"Want to cry?" Yuan Wu asked again.
"Maybe," Lin Chengbu said, "but I didn't cry."
"Be strong," Yuan Wu lit a cigarette, "I'm quite a young man."
Lin Cheng paused for a while, then laughed after a while: "Hey, you're a bit of a spoiler."
"Otherwise, what should we do?" Yuan Wu smiled, "Let's hug each other and cry together."
"Tell me," Lin Chengbu thought for a while, "will you still miss me when I go back?"
"No," Yuan Wu said, "What do you think about seeing each other every day, this time I've been apart for a long time before I realize that I'll miss you."
"...Why are you so calm?" Lin Chengbu couldn't help but ask.
"I just look calm," Yuan Wu took a cigarette, "I'm surging in my heart."
"Can you swell on your face?" Lin Chengbu said.
Yuan Wu pondered for a while, and sighed: "I can't turn it over, I'll pick you up when you come back, and I might be able to turn it over."
Lin Chengbu laughed there for a minute.
"By the way, where are all your thick clothes," Yuan Wu asked, "I don't see any thick coats in your closet."
"In the upper cabinet door, there are down jackets and coats," Lin Chengbu said. "Just pick one up and send it to me."
After Yuan Wu hung up the phone, he went into the bedroom and opened the door above the closet. There were a few jackets hanging inside. He glanced at them and felt that Lin Chengbu's face and figure were wasted by these styles.
In addition to the hanging clothes, there were also several folded down jackets. Yuan Wu picked one out and looked at it. It was a very ordinary style, and it would turn into a candied haws after wearing it.
He clicked his tongue, stretched out his hand and pulled out another piece. Before he could see it clearly, he felt that something slipped out along with the clothes and fell to the ground.
He looked down at it, it was a small book.
journal
An illiterate cook still keeps a diary
My gosh is this amazing...
Yuan Wu picked up the book, hesitated, and opened the first page.
This is a Lori-style ledger, and it is estimated that, like the picnic basket, it was given to him by a female member of Lin Chengbu's family... But the most amazing thing about Lin Chengbu is that he can use all these things.
Yuan Wu felt that if he hadn't known Lin Chengbu for so long, he would definitely have thought this person was a bitch.
There is a line on the first page of the ledger.
-The list of losses and expenses suffered by the Lord
Yuan Wu stared at this line of words for a long time before he understood.
This is not a diary. After turning over the next few pages and looking at it again, Yuan Wu stared at the words on it a little in a trance.
This is probably Lin Chengbu's debt collector's account book.
From the day he left Shenqiao, the book went to Lin Chengbu for training, recording all kinds of expenses piece by piece.
Some looked funny, but Yuan Wu didn't laugh very much.
Lin Chengbu has done a lot for him, this is something he has always known, and it is precisely because of this that he has never been able to care about Lin Chengbu as he did before.
But when everything is laid out like this in a checklist, the impact of that straightforwardness is a bit surprising.
The last line of the bookkeeping content was written - waiting for Yuan Wu to drop off the plane and say goodbye at home, but I missed the airport bus and had to take a taxi fare.
He should have written it down before going out, and Yuan Wu flicked it on the notebook.
Under this line of words, a bar was drawn with a straight line.
Is this stage over
Or will it not be recorded anymore
Yuan Wu took out his mobile phone, photographed the book page by page, and stuffed it back into the closet.
After thinking about it, I took it out again, found a pen and wrote a line on the last page.
-I don't know how much it costs to buy a coat for the sake of improving the aesthetics of Yahweh and Bubu.
According to Yuan Wu's standards, none of Lin Chengbu's coats looked good, so he had to get up early the next day and go straight to the mall.
Jiang Chengyu had just walked into the underground parking lot of the mall when he called him to have afternoon tea.
"I'm not going," Yuan Wu said, "I'm outside."
"Which one is outside?" Jiang Chengyu asked, "You still went out in such a cold weather?"
"Buy clothes." Yuan Wu replied.
"Isn't that pretty close?" Jiang Chengyu knew that the shops where he usually buys clothes are very close to the 18th. "Come here after you buy them."
"I'm not buying my own clothes." Yuan Wu said.
"... Who do you buy?" Jiang Chengyu was stunned, "Lin Chengbu?"
"Ah," Yuan Wu threw a few bags on the back seat, "He said it was cold over there, and he didn't bring enough clothes to send a coat over. I took a look and his clothes were too ugly."
"Fuck me, so you bought it for him and sent it over?" Jiang Cheng was a little surprised, "Why didn't you deliver it yourself..."
Yuan Wu thought for a while: "Alright?"
"Okay, sir!" Jiang Chengyu said, "No leave is allowed during this time! It's so cold that it will affect business, so it's up to you to pull people for me."
"Then you talk shit." Yuan Wu said.
"I'm just talking shit," Jiang Chengyu sighed, "Xiao Wu, are you serious?"
"Probably," Yuan Wu got into the car, "you still drink afternoon tea, don't you go to the hospital to see Chang Yu's cock?"
"... What?" Jiang Chengyu was stunned.
"Didn't you say that his dick is broken inside?" Yuan Wu started the car.
"Yuan Wu, is your brain enough?" Jiang Chengyu said, "He has appendicitis!"
"Really?" Yuan Wu laughed, "I may have misunderstood, mainly because I was a little surprised. It stands to reason that you have to fold the inside..."
"Don't fucking mention this shit?" Jiang Chengyu said, "Hurry up and send your clothes, I'll let you say no to your emotions!"
"See you tonight." Yuan Wu hung up the phone.
After Lin Chengbu's clothes were delivered, Yuan Wu sent him a message and gave him the waybill number.
Then he sat on the edge of the flower bed at the door of the courier company and lit a cigarette.
For some reason, Jiang Chengyu didn't say that when he sent the clothes over, he didn't have any idea. He just felt a little bit of Lin Chengbu and hoped that he would be by his side.
But after Jiang Chengyu said those words, he became a little irritable.
The kind of miss for Lin Chengbu suddenly became very strong. He opened the mobile phone calendar and took a look. It was necessary to turn the pages before Lin Chengbu came back.
This annoyed him.
Hold.
It's still so long
Why did the training take so long
He was invited to a bartending training class for two months before, but he refused to go because it was too long.
three months
Isn't that chef annoying
After smoking a cigarette, he stood up and prepared to go back. It was time for dinner, and Lin Chengbu's chasing soul-killing serial meal would be delivered immediately. At noon, he missed the one that was left in the corridor.
Before the car left the parking space, Lin Chengbu's phone called: "Is it sent so soon?"
"How slow is it to send clothes," Yuan Wu put on his earphones and backed up the car, "You'll catch a cold if it's late."
"Which one did you send?" Lin Chengbu asked.
"None of them were sent," Yuan Wu sighed, "Xiaobubu, you should keep those clothes for ten years before wearing them, okay?"
"Oh," Lin Chengbu responded, "then what did you send me?"
"New clothes." Yuan Wu said.
"Did you buy me clothes?" Lin Chengbu was stunned.
"Well," Yuan Wu said, "don't be too moved."
"I don't care about being moved right now," Lin Chengbu said, "I'm a little worried now."
"What are you worried about?" Yuan Wu was puzzled.
"I'm worried that you will buy me a middle finger, so how should I wear it?" Lin Chengbu answered honestly.
"Don't I just put the middle finger on, it's summer clothes." Yuan Wu was a little speechless.
"You still have a middle finger mask and a chicken T-shirt," Lin Chengbu was still worried, "did the coat you bought me have a pattern?"
"When did I wear a patterned coat!" Yuan Wu roared, "The solid color just makes you look less like a candied haws!"
"Oh," Lin Chengbu responded and laughed, "Hey, do you think I'm annoying?"
"Yes." Yuan Wu said.
"Then what should I do?" Lin Chengbu continued in a good mood.
"Hurry back." Yuan Wu said.
Yuan Wu's emotional expression has always been quite direct, even if this emotion is unfamiliar to him now, just like he hates, dislikes and is impatient, his thoughts are also direct, making Lin Chengbu feel caught off guard , I laughed for a long time with a chicken wing in my mouth without putting it in my mouth.
The opposite Hao looked at him like a patient. After he hung up the phone, he said, "Xiao Lin, let me tell you, it's easy to be disgusted when you fall in love like this."
"Why?" Lin Chengbu asked with a smile.
"If the other party feels that you care too much, they will not care so much." Hao Lai educated him seriously.
"Really?" Lin Chengbu took a bite of the chicken wing, "I can express as much as I like."
"For girls..." Hao Lai wanted to continue.
Lin Chengbu smiled and interrupted him directly: "It's not a girl."
Hao Lai was stunned, and after a while he said, "Are you a guy?"
"Well," Lin Chengbu nodded, "hey, these chicken wings are not as good as what my mother made..."
"Are you dating a man?" Hao Lai came back to his senses and was even more surprised.
"Yeah," Lin Chengbu took a bite of the meal, then looked at him after thinking about it, "you can change the room if you mind, it's fine."
"No, I didn't mean that," Hao Lai quickly shook his head, "I just didn't expect..."
"Don't be afraid that I have no idea about you." Lin Chengbu said.
"... I'm really not afraid," Hao Lai let him have fun, then sighed after laughing for a while, "Hey, it's not easy for you to be like this."
"It's okay," Lin Chengbu said, "the hard part is over."
When Yuan Wu arrived at the downstairs of Lin Chengbu's house, he happened to see the delivery boy parked the car, took his mobile phone and was dialing.
"Hey," he called after getting out of the car, "here, did Lin Chengbu order the meal?"
"Yes," the little brother handed over the lunch box, "Do you eat it every day? I've delivered it many times."
"Someone forced me to eat every day." Yuan Wu said.
Haven't eaten the lunch at noon, and have a hot snack at night
Yuan Wu pinched his waist, eating like feeding a pig every day, a feeling that his body was starting to swell.
Forget the noon meal for a while to waste.
Yuan Wu was stunned when he got out of the elevator. It seemed that this lunch at noon… would not be wasted.
The lunch box was placed on top of the fire cabinet beside the door. Standing beside the lunch box was a cat. It had slapped the lid of the lunch box open and was eating. Hearing his footsteps, the cat turned around and watched vigilantly. he.
"How did you get up?" Yuan Wu asked in shock, "Is it the elevator or the stairs!"
The cat didn't answer, just picked up a spring roll and slowly raised one of its front paws, as if planning to run.
"You can eat," Yuan Wu said, "It's alright, I don't want it anymore."
He moved slowly over and opened the door, then went inside and closed the door.
From the cat's eyes, you can see that the cat held the posture of holding the spring roll and raising its front paws for two minutes, and then ran away.
Yuan Wu sighed and did not go out to clean up.
This cat has a big belly, and it looks like she is pregnant with a kitten, and it is estimated that she will come back to eat later.
Yuan Wu put the takeaway in his hand on the table.
He went back to the door and looked out, and when he saw the cat, he remembered that he hadn't been to the rescue station for a long, long time.
I used to go often, give some money, and bring some cat food and dog food.
The moment he saw this cat, the days of the past came back, and the memories were much clearer than he imagined.
Many small emotions are still in his mind.
Those lonely, goalless, dazed and restless days made him suddenly a little unsteady.
He always felt that a long time had passed, but in fact, it didn't seem that long, so many memories were still there, unhappy, uncomfortable, unpleasant...
He opened the lunch box and took a bite. Today's dinner is fried pork ribs with tomatoes, scrambled eggs and corn ribs soup.
taste good.
He put down his chopsticks, took out his mobile phone and called Lin Chengbu.
He knew that it was not a good time to hit the past. Lin Chengbu was either writing that damn summary or was resting and preparing to continue training at night.
But he still hit.
For some reason, those memories of the past suddenly made him panic, but he couldn't understand why he was panicking. He just suddenly felt that Lin Chengbu was like his placebo.
He needs to take a small breath now.
Lin Chengbu quickly answered the phone over there: "Hello?"
"I'm fine." Yuan Wu said.
"...Oh," Lin Chengbu was stunned, "then you called..."
"Listen to your voice." Yuan Wu said.
"Oh," Lin Chengbu seemed a little surprised, and then said after a long time of stunned, "then what should I say for you to listen to?"
"Whatever." Yuan Wu said.
"I...then what..." Lin Cheng stammered, "you... hey, I... I'm relying on Chef Liu to come. I have to... I need a while... or at night... "
"Say you won't disappear." Yuan Wu said.
"What?" Lin Chengbu was stunned again, but quickly reacted, "I won't disappear, I will always be there, whether you can see me or not."
"Come back soon," Yuan Wu lined up the lunch boxes in front of them one by one, "I don't want to eat takeout anymore."
Days go by slowly in two cases.
Nothing to look forward to and nothing to look forward to.
Although Yuan Wu didn't express as much as Lin Chengbu every day, I miss you, I want to go back, and now I look at Chef Liu and want to fast-forward or pull the progress bar, but the number of times I look at the calendar has increased significantly. I can also remember clearly what day of the week it was.
"It's almost New Year's Eve," Jiang Chengyu grabbed at the phone, "what kind of tricks are you going to make this year... Daqi! How long will it be for the New Year?"
"One month and seven days." Yuan Wu took a sip of wine.
Jiang Chengyu turned his face to look at him, then leaned in front of him and stared at him for a second time: "Xiao Wu, are you living your life with your fingers right now?"
"How many days do you need a wrench?" Yuan Wu looked at him, "It's a miracle that this IQ can open a bar."
"How long will Lin Chengbu be back?" Jiang Chengyu asked.
"You miss him?" Yuan Wu said.
Jiang Chengyu laughed: "Fuck."
Not a few days.
Yuan Wu thought it was very strange. He could remember the days before, two months, one month, twenty days, fifteen days. The closer he got to the day Lin Chengbu came back, the more he could not remember.
Every time I think of it, there is only the concept of "a few days away".
He had never expected anyone like this, except for Lin Chengbu, probably no one had expected him like that. He might be inexperienced in missing and waiting in remembrance.
Can't figure out the numbers.
It was not until Lin Chengbu called him early in the morning and woke him up from his dream that he jumped out of the infinite loop of "it's been a few days".
"I'm going to the airport now," Lin Chengbu said, his voice a little out of tune because of his excitement, "I checked the time, and if I'm not late, I'll be there at 12:15 noon, but I think it's definitely late. I'm embarrassed to say that I'm a plane later..."
"Yeah." Yuan Wu looked at the time.
"You don't have to come too early, you don't have to wait if you come later." Lin Chengbu said.
"Well." Yuan Wu glanced at the time again.
"Uncle," Lin Chengbu said, "why are you so calm? I don't even dare to go back."
"Ah!" Yuan Wu shouted, "That's great!"
Lin Chengbu was probably startled, but he didn't say anything for a long time.
"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Yuan Wu continued, "You are finally back! Haha! Is this okay?"
"...You should calm down," Lin Chengbu said, "by the way! I have a request."
"Huh?" Yuan Wu responded.
"I want to drink milk tea, can you bring me a cup?" Lin Chengbu said.
"Okay." Yuan Wu said.
After hanging up, he got up and called Da Qi while changing his clothes: "Are you in the store? Help me prepare some cream... I'll use it later."
