The boys returned to the dormitory one after another after training, and when they entered the door, they saw Yu Ranfu chopping vegetables on the table. A hot pot was placed in the middle of the aisle, and the water had just reached the boiling point and began to churn.
Yu Ran cut the ginger slices, turned around and threw them into the pot, and called Chu Mian, who was doing nothing beside him, to pour the hot pot base. Chu Mian moved very slowly, no matter what ingredients he took, he had to read the instructions first, looking completely unfamiliar.
"Yu Ran, you really want to do this in the dormitory?" Fang Zhao entered the door blankly, then turned to Chu Mian, "Why didn't you stop me?"
Chu Mian calmed down: "Can I stop it?"
Yu Ran rolled up his sleeves and sat down, divided six sets of bowls and chopsticks, "Hehe" smiled and said to Fang Zhao: "You worry about this and that every day, just like my mother. Don't worry, you just eat. Responsible."
Fang Zhao bowed his head wearily, and quickly turned back to lock the door, while the others cheered for Yu Ran's boldness, and picked up their chopsticks bluntly.
Zhou Weixi put the meat slices in, "It's still a mandarin duck pot, your preparations are too thorough."
Yu Ran casually explained: "Well, Chu Mian can't eat spicy food."
Being called out suddenly, Chu Mian's original train of thought was interrupted. He quietly looked at Yu Ran's profile, and sat down after a while to help put the vegetables.
Fang Zhao came back to sit down after confirming that the door was closed tightly, and asked, "Where did the meat come from?"
Yu Ran sucked the tip of his chopsticks and said, "Yesterday I took off your dick while you were asleep and cut it up."
Zhou Weixi, who was chewing meat slices, instantly became stiff.
Fang Zhao snarled and retorted: "Fuck! It's not detachable! It's still on me!"
Chu Mian couldn't help laughing, glanced at the plate filled with meat, and asked Yu Ran: "Shouldn't you be able to cut so much?"
Fang Zhao was dumbfounded, unable to believe it: "Chu Mian, why..."
Yu Ran laughed resonantly, almost falling on Chu Mian, "Why are you so damn poisonous?"
He smiled and found a few shallow scratches on the back of Chu Mian's right hand, which were very conspicuous compared with his fair skin, so he asked him how he did it. Chu Mian looked down and didn't care.
After living together for the past few days, everyone has learned that Chu Mian's daily diet is very particular about nutrition, so when they order ingredients, they will first pick the best ones and put them in the clear soup pot. Chu Mian has always been unable to respond enthusiastically to other people's thoughtfulness, and she would inevitably be considered cold in the past. Now the situation has improved, Yu Ran seems to be his agent, without any politeness, he picks up food and stuffs it into his bowl without any explanation, and deliberately orders him to eat it with a grim face.
Zhou Weixi secretly brought a laptop when he came to the military training. He was too tired to take it out these days. He was almost full after eating hot pot. He asked everyone: "Want to watch movies? I downloaded several."
Maybe Yu Ran's bad deeds are so contagious, and under his leadership, everyone became more and more unruly. Fang Zhao was worried again: "If the instructor comes in, we will all die."
Yu Ran pointed at the computer screen: "Brother Yi, I want to watch this!"
The movie he chose was "2012", which was very popular in the past few years, and he always forgot to watch it. Now he can enjoy the fun with his friends.
Taking advantage of the fact that the instructor did not come to the dormitory to check, they hurriedly cleaned up the mess of the hot pot, then turned off the lights, raised the quilt on the lower bunk, and put it on the computer to play a movie.
Chu Mian had watched "2012" a long time ago, so he went to the side to turn on the desk lamp he brought, lowered the brightness, and began to write the self-criticism for being punished today.
But within a few paragraphs of writing, Yu Ran quarreled and couldn't write any more. He must sigh "wow" when he saw the thrilling movie scene, and he guessed that the next plot would have to open his mouth to say it. Without earplugs, it is too easy to be attracted by him.
Chu Mian simply put down her pen and sat down to review it with them.
He saw that he was half asleep, and when he woke up, the dormitory lights were on again. Yu Ran's voice sounded very anxious: "Where can I buy a ticket? Is there an age limit? Only scientists can go in... "
The boy said: "Don't worry, Yu Ran, let me do the math, you won't die in 2012."
Yu Ran pressed his shoulder eagerly, and said reverently: "Master, can you help me calculate the survival rate of my mother, father and brother?"
"Okay, just wait a minute." The boy sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyelids blinked wildly because of rolling his eyes, "Well... they are all fine, but you may have a bloody disaster on the end of the world."
"What?!" Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Yu Ran began to fidget.
Chu Mian was confused and didn't know what was going on with Yu Ran, just in time to hear Fang Zhao say: "Yu Ran, are you an idiot? You can believe what the Great God says. Last time he said he could see human tails. That's fine, this year There is no end of the world, if you don’t write the review, you will surely die.”
Chu Mian remembered that she still had business to do, so she immediately went over and grabbed Yu Ran by the collar, and dragged him to the table.
Yu Ran poked his chin with a pen, and asked earnestly, "Chu Mian, do you know how to buy tickets for Noah's Ark?"
Chu Mian's pen tip paused, and now he finally understood what Yu Ran was anxious about just now, and sighed, "Yu Ran, you have broken through the limit of my knowledge of your IQ."
"Tsk." Yu Ran pouted, "I was asking you something, why are you praising me!"
"Hurry up and write a review."
"Stop writing!" Yu Ran threw away his pen, raised his arms and shouted, "The hero has to find a way to save the world!"
He said he didn't want to write, so he really ran to the side to play with his mobile phone. Chu Mian sat alone at the table for a long time, and finally completed a self-criticism with a correct attitude and clear logic. Looking up, he saw Yu Ran listlessly sitting on the upper bunk in a daze.
It's not early now, and the evening training is about to begin, and there will be severe penalties for failing to submit the review on time. Chu Mian hesitated, but she still couldn't let her go, "Come down now and copy what I wrote."
The corners of Yu Ran's mouth drooped: "I don't want to write, why don't I give an impromptu speech later."
Chu Mian tried to persuade him, but there was a sharp whistle in the corridor, and everyone put down their phones, packed their clothes and went out to stand in line.
Yu Ran unhurriedly got out of bed, tied his shoelaces halfway, and was suddenly patted on the head with a piece of paper.
A page of neat handwriting appeared in front of him, and then he heard Chu Mian say, "Take it."
Yu Ran took it subconsciously, and found that it was Chu Mian's self-criticism, but his name was written on the top blank.
After understanding, Yu Ran asked: "Then what should you do?"
"Anyway, the teachers in our school will not punish me, let alone punish me." Chu Mian said firmly.
He is very aware of this, the school is under the care of his mother, and the preferential treatment for him is naturally exhaustive. But Yu Ran is different from himself. Ordinary students make mistakes again and again during military training, and they will definitely be criticized when they return to school.
"The school doesn't care, but the instructor will definitely punish him." Yu Ran said, "A lot of squats, push-ups, and leapfrogs."
"If you are punished, treat it as you owe me." Chu Mian gently dropped this sentence and walked out the door.
Yu Ran hurriedly followed, feeling from the bottom of his heart: "You are too fucking nice to care about me so much."
"It's not about you." Chu Mian seriously corrected his thoughts, "It's just weighing the pros and cons, and minimizing the punishment we can receive."
Hearing the "we" in the other party's words, Yu Ran smiled deeply. He knew that Chu Mian was affirming their friendship, so he didn't say anything more, put the self-criticism in his pocket, and followed Chu Mian closely.
Walking out of the dormitory building, there was a sudden roar in the night sky.
Yu Ran was overjoyed: "Fuck, the rain god has appeared!"
The instructor blew the whistle to tell everyone not to be too happy, so they squatted down and listened to the command. As a result, some people in the class started singing Xiao Jingteng's "Prince", and the rest of them were eager to pray for rain, and they also defied the instructor's password and sang loudly.
The instructor said loudly: "Don't be superstitious!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sky thundered loudly. After about half a minute, the raindrops "crackled" poured down, and the ground was quickly soaked. This time there is no need for the instructor's password, everyone jumped up and ran back to the teaching building singing.
The review paper had been ignored by the instructor, Yu Ran reached into his pocket, the folded corner of the page made his fingertips hurt a bit, but he quickly liked the touch, and kept pressing the sharp corners with his fingers. After thinking about it, he decided not to return the review to Chu Mian. After all, this thing was a testimony of their friendship, and Yu Ran wanted to keep it as a souvenir.
After turning off the lights in the middle of the night, Chu Mian noticed that there was still a faint light in his field of vision.
He listened attentively, and found that apart from the sound of rain outside the window, Yu Ran in front of his pillow was also muttering something.
Chu Mian thought he was noisy, so she urged her, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Yu Ran immediately turned over and lay on his stomach, crawled forward a little distance, and asked softly, "Can you read the Mayan calendar?"
"I told you, there is no end of the world."
"The Mayans predicted December this year, and it's only October now. Who knows what will happen to the earth next?"
Chu Mian didn't want to entangle him with such a topic without scientific basis, so she covered the quilt tightly, "You can believe it if you want."
Yu Ran approached him again, his head almost squeezed through the railing between the two beds, "Chu Mian, are you afraid of death? What if the world really ends next month? We agreed that day..."
Chu Mian felt that Yu Ran's voice seemed to be close to his ears. He raised his hand and groped in the air, and his palm touched Yu Ran's forehead, so he pushed it out hard, and said in a muffled voice, "Then we will die together." .”
Seeing that he was ignoring him, Yu Ran had no choice but to retract the quilt silently, and browse "What items should be prepared for refuge when the end of the world comes" on the post bar.
The next morning the rain stopped, Chu Mian woke up early and got out of bed to find water to drink. He habitually glanced at the next bed, only to find that it was empty.
He forgot to be thirsty, and immediately sent a text message to Yu Ran to confirm the location, and told him not to cause trouble.
—I'm detecting the soil on the surface, please help!
Chu Mian frowned as she read Yu Ran's reply.
At this moment, Yu Ran is squatting beside the flowers outside, concentrating on stirring the soil with a wooden stick. When Chu Mian found him, he had already dug out the soil to the size of a cup, and kept poking inside with a wooden stick.
"I see!" Yu Ran's eyes lit up, "Earthworms are emerging!"
When Chu Mian heard the word "earthworm", she took a half step back without thinking, stared at Yu Ran's back with disgust, and asked him what he was doing.
"According to the color state of the earthworm, analyze the activity level of the surface, and predict the disaster before the end of the world."
"I don't understand." Chu Mian didn't know where he learned the technique, "Is it disgusting, go back and wash your hands."
Yu Ran was immersed in his own fun and couldn't extricate himself, "Fuck, why did it drill so fast, it opened a tunnel in the soil—"
"Don't describe." Chu Mian's expression darkened.
"Come on, Chu Mian!" Yu Ran turned to him and smiled brightly, "Here is the breakfast I prepared for you!"
Chu Mian endured the word "roll" on her lips, walked over and glanced at the soil, then immediately looked away, and told Yu Ran: "It will only move on the surface after it rains, you find a damp place."
"Found it, then what?"
"Bring it out again."
Yu Ran said "OK", put down the small wooden stick, and cast a wink at the dirt heartily.
"It's not this kind of seduction." Chu Mian couldn't hold back, and kicked him directly into the flowers.
