Jiang Xiao was chopping vegetables, when he saw him coming in, he was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"let me help you."
"Go out," Jiang Xiao stretched out his hand to chase him away, "Go and sit outside, I will do it myself."
Lin Chengyu didn't leave.
Seeing him just standing there in a daze, Jiang Xiao glanced at him again, thought for a while, and handed him the garlic in the bag.
"Then peel the garlic and cut it into mashed garlic."
Lin Chengyu lowered his head and peeled garlic obediently there. After peeling and chopping the garlic, he looked at Jiang Xiao anxiously.
Jiang Xiao received this gaze, rummaged through the bag, and handed him a handful of green peppers.
"Cut this again, and cut it into shredded green peppers."
Chen Lang and Xu Liang were watching TV outside, and Xu Liang felt a little embarrassed sitting there, so he went to the kitchen and asked, "How about we come and help?"
Before Jiang Xiao could answer, Lin Chengyu answered righteously: "No need! Sit down, the two of us can do it."
It was hard for him to be alone with Jiang Xiao for a while, and since they were so close, there were very few opportunities to cook a meal together.
He loves peeling garlic so much! Cutting bell peppers is also fun!
Jiang Xiao then replied: "Sit down, the kitchen is small, and there is no room for so many people."
Lin Chengyu is still good enough to help him. He doesn't dare to handle the dishes when washing and picking vegetables to watch the fire. He is not as good as Jiang Xiao in the real world.
What Jiang Xiao cooks today is her own specialty. There are all kinds of cuisines. I made candied sweet potato, garlic and white meat, and I made green pepper beef, smoked bamboo shoots, bacon, and tomato beef brisket. I fried a small cabbage and made a fish head tofu soup. There are both spicy and non-spicy, taking care of everyone's taste. In the end, Jiang Xiao saw that he still had time, and watched them drink half of their beer, so he made a small fried fish to drink with the wine.
Pots are not allowed in the dormitory, and it was the first time for Chen Lang and the others to eat Jiang Xiao's cooking. They thought it was home-cooked food, and the important thing was to get together before the holiday, but they couldn't stop when they stretched out their chopsticks.
This taste is much better than what they eat outside.
The four boys cooked eight dishes, and Jiang Xiao usually cooks a little more when entertaining guests, so as to make sure they are full, but he didn't expect that they were almost finished.
He was not very hungry when cooking, and he didn't stretch out his chopsticks much. Basically, the other three people finished eating.
"Xiao," Chen Lang said while hiccupping, "you are on the wrong road, you shouldn't be setting up a department store, you should open a restaurant in our school, and guarantee to kill all the restaurants on the commercial street."
Jiang Xiao: "It's not that exaggerated."
When he started learning cooking, it was really just to save money.
"Really," Xu Liang continued, "There are so many girls in our academy chasing you, it's because they didn't eat the food you cooked. If they do, then it's not chasing, they have to rush."
If he was a woman, she would really do everything she could to get Jiang Xiao to get a certificate. She is capable outside and able to manage the family inside. God likes this kind of person.
But after he said this, he felt that Lin Chengyu's face, who was sitting across from him, had changed, as if it had turned darker for nothing.
So Xu Liang, who felt as if he had said something wrong, began to talk about him. These two people can't cook, but they can still wash dishes. Seeing that Jiang Xiao has been busy for so long, the two of them are embarrassed to keep sitting. He rubbed his stomach and went to wash the dishes.
Lin Chengyu also knew that many people in the school were after Jiang Xiao.
He is really popular. On the opening day, several girls sent flower baskets to celebrate the opening. Lin Chengyu was a little cautious when facing Jiang Xiao, so he sent two largest flower baskets, which were placed near the gate. , especially conspicuous.
Although it was hard to stop some of them, there were still many people trying to express their love to Jiang Xiao in various ways.
He has seen someone stop Jiang Xiao to deliver a love letter after class, and he has seen so many girls cheering him up and rushing up to bring him water after Jiang Xiao finished playing basketball, but if Jiang Xiao really doesn't like it, he will be very straightforward rejected.
"I'm really sorry, I don't plan to fall in love recently."
"I hope you meet a more suitable boy in the future."
"Thanks, but really not."
Lin Chengyu has seen the scene of Jiang Xiao rejecting people many times.
On the one hand, he was relieved, and on the other hand, he was a little uncomfortable.
Anyway, if others dare to confess, he would not dare to say these things to Jiang Xiao.
After finally staying with him for such a long time, the relationship has eased a lot now, Jiang Xiao is willing to accept his help, and can also quietly share a room with him to cook a meal, getting along like friends, which is better than when he first started. much better.
He should be content, but he is really not reconciled. He was afraid that if he took a step forward, the balance between the two of them would be broken, and he would not be able to maintain this kind of relationship, and he would not know where to regret it.
So he was uneasy, trying to maintain a harmless appearance on the surface, but he couldn't describe what he was thinking in his heart sometimes.
He watched Jiang Xiao get up, find a pot, cut half a lemon, make a pot of lemon honey tea, and drink it until he gets tired of it, and his stomach will feel better. Then Jiang Xiao divided the tea in the pot into four cups, Xu Lang and the others washed the dishes and went to wash their hands, and he handed the cups to Lin Chengyu first.
When Lin Chengyu received the cup, he touched Jiang Xiao's fingertips.
Jiang Xiao didn't care, he sat down and drank the tea by himself, Lin Chengyu looked at him and held the cup tightly.
Love is always accompanied by possessiveness.
Every time he sees Jiang Xiao, he can clearly feel how much he likes this person, wishing to possess him completely, and wishing to break himself into Jiang Xiao, he wants to be fair and aboveboard when others confess Declaring sovereignty, thinking that Jiang Xiao only belongs to himself.
People are always like this, pushing their feet, but now, he only dares to think about it.
Chen Lang was catching the train tonight, Xu Liang also left at about the same time, Lin Chengyu stayed a little later, he asked Jiang Xiao: "What do you want to do on vacation?"
Jiang Xiao probably won't return to Houlin during the Chinese New Year, and just passed it here. Lin Chengyu thought that there might be a chance to go out together, but Jiang Xiao obviously didn't want to say more.
"We still have to look at the goods," he said, "Let's talk about the specifics, we haven't decided yet."
Lin Chengyu wanted to say something more, but Jiang Xiao didn't let him continue.
"Then let's see you next semester," Jiang Xiao continued, "For business matters, thank you during this time."
Lin Chengyu still wanted to say something to delay the time, it seemed useless, as it was getting late, he had no choice but to leave in the end.
He was not idle during the holidays either. It has been about half a year since Yong Jiang started the development of the residential area. The land he bought has been demolished and some old houses have been demolished.
When he arrived at the construction site, he didn't look like a young master at all. He put on overalls and a hard hat, and like the workers next to him, he ate big pot meals together.
The big pot of rice at the construction site was quite delicious, but Lin Chengyu kept thinking about the meal he ate at Jiang Xiao's house before he left, and the meal in front of him was a little tasteless in comparison.
I really want to have a supper.
After a few days, many people left on the construction site. After all, it was Chinese New Year, and many people still had to go back. Lin Chengyu finally got to rest for a while on New Year's Day. The first thing he did was to drive to Lishi.
When he was in college, his place of work was very close to Jiang Xiao’s. He could drive to Jiang Xiao’s community in an hour’s shift. It would make sense for him to bring some New Year’s goods to his home on Xiaonian’s day. After all, he and Aunt Xia are very close. cooked.
Lin Chengyu happily parked the car on the curb, but when he opened the trunk, he found that he had bought too many things, and he couldn't get them all after trying many times. He was thinking about borrowing a push from the doorman. Car, as soon as he got near the gate of the community, he saw Jiang Xiao at a glance.
Sitting by the window of the cafe, the most important thing is that there is a girl sitting opposite Jiang Xiao, with long curly hair and exquisite makeup, looking at Jiang Xiao and smiling.
Although he knew that Jiang Xiao would not like girls because of his sexuality, Lin Chengyu still felt jealous.
He has never seen this girl before, and she certainly cannot be a relative of Jiang Xiao's family. I don't know why such a person suddenly appeared beside Jiang Xiao after he left for a few days. The location of this cafe is also very special. Downstairs in the Xiaojia community, there is a high probability that he took the initiative to make an appointment here.
Ever since Lin Heyuan's incident, he was very afraid that Jiang Xiao would be snatched away again. He wanted to go up directly, but when he approached, he calmed down for a while.
He is not qualified to do so at this time, and it is not clear what the circumstances are.
But Lin Chengyu couldn't hold his breath anymore, he sneaked in, found a seat in the back and sat there, ordered a cup of Americano coffee and sat there watching.
The Americano coffee in this shop was extremely bitter, Lin Chengyu took a sip and felt bitter from his mouth to his heart.
He doesn't like coffee at all!
There was actually no one in this coffee shop. After all, it was a young year, and many people had gone home. Jiang Xiao noticed it as soon as he came in, but he has business to do now, so let's ignore him and talk about it after we finish talking.
He can pretend not to see, Lin Chengyu's eyes are too obvious, it is impossible for the girl sitting opposite him not to see.
"That person has been staring at us." She reminded, "Is it someone you know?"
Lin Chengyu soon found out that he was exposed, because Jiang Xiao's eyes were swept over, he would be a fool if he couldn't find out, first he was nervous for a while at a loss, and then he just sat there, with a strong sense of crisis. Self introduction.
"Hi, I'm Jiang Xiao's..."
"College roommate," Jiang Xiao interrupted him, his eyes were helpless, and he felt that the things in front of him seemed to be difficult to explain, and he introduced the beautiful girl sitting opposite, "Ye Miaomiao, she came to me to talk about things in the store. business, we want to set up a cosmetics counter in it."
Just talk business.
Lin Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief, and then realized that he was too worried and did something stupid again.
Jiang Xiao didn't want to talk about anything with Lin Chengyu in front of others, he had already talked with the other party almost, and there are more details that can't be negotiated today, and then he has to go to the field to learn about Ye Miaomiao's products before making a decision.
The other girl didn't want to look at Lin Chengyu any longer, she showed a kind smile, and said, "Let's talk next time."
Jiang Xiao also smiled at her: "Okay."
After the other party left, Jiang Xiao rubbed the center of his brows, then turned to look at Lin Chengyu, and said, "Can you not do this next time? I'm really talking about business."
Lin Chengyu always admitted his mistakes quickly in front of him, and immediately raised his hands with a sincere attitude: "I was wrong."
