The cold wind was bleak, and the cold air blowing in through the cracks in the windows made Ruan Jiujiu shiver.
The tip of her nose was itchy, and she almost sneezed, but Ruan Jiujiu quickly covered her. She doesn't want Cheng Juan to find out the truth about her ordering food, so it's better to be careful. Thinking of this, Ruan Jiujiu's movements became more and more cautious.
At this moment, Ruan Jiujiu didn't know it at all. A few meters away, a faint death stare from someone was watching her actions that she thought she hadn't exposed.
"Gulu Gulu..."
Ruan Jiujiu swallowed with a growl of hunger and thirst, imagining the wonderful life of watching soap operas while eating mochi.
She waited patiently for a while. The takeaway boy downstairs hadn't shaken the rope yet, but the rope in his hand had already felt the feeling of falling objects.
"..." Strange, is this good or not
Ruan Jiujiu grabbed the rope with one hand and opened the window halfway. The chilly wind was instantly unobstructed, and rushed in suddenly, almost blowing Ruan Jiujiu into facial paralysis. She shrank her neck, regretting that she should have put on a coat, and while Cheng Juan was still, Ruan Jiujiu sneaked out of the window.
Xiao Li, the takeaway boy downstairs, stood there with a dazed expression, still struggling with the choice of reminding or not reminding.
He also has professional ethics. What if the tip is gone without a reminder
Looking down from Ruan Jiujiu's point of view, I could only see the little brother standing there, looking up at Ruan Jiujiu as if looking up.
Ruan Jiujiu made an OK gesture to him.
She tugged on the rope tentatively, and found that the other party was tied quite firmly, so Ruan Jiujiu simply pulled it up step by step. She moves very slowly, trying to maintain a constant vertical speed so that the takeaway can reach its destination successfully.
Not to mention, it's quite heavy.
Ruan Jiujiu was dumbfounded the next second.
The takeaway was stuck on the fence downstairs.
"..."
Ruan Jiujiu blushed and stretched his arms with difficulty, trying to pull the lunch box out. The takeaway was heavy, Ruan Jiujiu was sweating profusely from exhaustion, and his arms were trembling slightly. She is in a very depressed mood at the moment, why is it so hard to eat alone
The takeaway boy suddenly got on the cart and slipped away. A yellow figure ran extremely fast in the dark night, but disappeared within a few seconds.
Ruan Jiujiu's cell phone rang, it was a phone call.
Afraid that the phone would disturb Cheng Juan, she quickly grabbed the rope tightly with one hand and connected the phone with the other.
"Hey?"
Ruan Jiujiu's voice was extremely low: "Don't worry, I will send you red envelopes later..."
"No, it's not about the red envelopes. I am also a person with professional dignity." Xiao Li's voice was calm, "That... Ms., out of conscience, I suggest you poke your head out and look at your east window. I will I helped you get here, we will see you in Jianghu."
"Beep beep..." The other party hung up the phone.
Ruan Jiujiu: "???"
With a questioning face, she stuck her head out according to the delivery boy's instructions, and looked at the window on the left.
Then…
As if there was a tacit understanding in the thousands of looking back, the two looked at each other. Cheng Juan stood in front of the window, staring at her for an unknown amount of time, looking at her with faint eyes, resembling the embarrassing scene he encountered in the restaurant that day.
"..."
"..."
Ruan Jiujiu was stunned.
The strength in her hand subconsciously loosened, and she saw the heavy takeaway box with the rope instantly lose strength and fell down. Ruan Jiujiu recovered and tried to save it. She stretched out her arm to catch the rope that was flying down, but unfortunately, it was too late up.
Ruan Jiujiu watched helplessly as the takeaway box rolled down in a tragic manner, and hit the lawn with a bang. The takeaway box was torn apart and dripped out of the plastic bag.
Looking at this scene, Ruan Jiujiu hugged his head helplessly, almost crying out loud.
Her takeaway! her money! Her crayfish!
Nothing!
…
ten minutes later.
Wrapped in a thick black down jacket, Ruan Jiujiu walked downstairs dejectedly, followed by Cheng Juan. The two were silent all the way, which made Ruan Jiujiu very embarrassed.
She turned on the flashlight and looked at the lawn, easily finding the scene of the tragedy.
Cheng Juan was carrying an empty plastic bag and a roll of paper in one hand, and accompanied Ruan Jiujiu to deal with the tragedy. Ruan Jiujiu was always a little uneasy as he let the takeaways scattered everywhere and fell asleep like this, since this is a public place after all.
Ruan Jiujiu was even more frustrated. Who would throw two hundred yuan of rubbish on the lawn!
Could she be more prodigal
The two moved to the side of Crayfish, squatted down, and looked at each other speechlessly.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Ruan Jiujiu joked: "I heard that it took a few seconds for something to be picked up and eaten after it was dropped on the ground. We've only had a few minutes, so it's okay, hahahaha."
Listening to Ruan Jiujiu's words, Cheng Juan, who was squatting aside, fell into deep thought.
He stared at the cold crayfish lying on the lawn: "..."
Ruan Jiujiu: "Stop eating!"
Dealing with the mess was mainly done by Cheng Juan on his own initiative. He put on plastic gloves, packed up the residue in a bag, and wiped it several times with paper. Ruan Jiujiu illuminated him with the flashlight of his mobile phone.
Cheng Juan didn't say a word the whole time. He picked up the oversized crayfish and was silent.
Ruan Jiujiu lowered his head: "I'm sorry."
He picked up the cold skewers again, silent.
Ruan Jiujiu lowered his head, "I'm sorry."
If it was embarrassing to be found secretly ordering takeout, now in front of Ruan Jiujiu, she picked up all the evidence of her eating alone, as if it was too late on the spot, making Ruan Jiujiu almost burst into tears.
Oh my god, she swore she would never eat behind Cheng Juan's back again!
Ruan Jiujiu asked dejectedly, "How did you find out that I ordered takeaway?" She almost suspected that Cheng Juan had a nose like a snorting dog, and could smell it thousands of miles away.
Cheng Juan was very calm: "It happens to open the window for ventilation."
Ruan Jiujiu: "..."
She has no luck.
In fact, Cheng Juan had been standing by the window, distracted. Ever since Ruan Jiujiu fell asleep, he had been standing by the window, looking at the deserted ground. Until he watched a figure of a delivery boy walking towards his downstairs, Cheng Juan quietly opened the window, and saw a crack in the next door window, throwing a "rope" down.
Ruan Jiujiu sighed.
Ruan Jiujiu's face blushed immediately as his stomach rumbled.
Cheng Juan stood up, carrying a bag of garbage without being too dirty, and took the lead to walk forward. His cool voice came from the cold wind: "Go, let's make a living."
Ruan Jiujiu knew he was wrong, so he could only pretend he didn't hear it.
What Cheng Juan said was not enough.
The two sat in a box of a Jianghu restaurant and ordered a table full of dishes. There are hemp and barbecue, the color is attractive, the fragrance is tangy, and people can't stop drooling. Ruan Jiujiu was not polite to him, and peeled off the red hemp on his own. Her mouth was full of oil, and her mouth was so spicy that she sucked it, but her face turned red after a while.
While eating, Ruan Jiujiu suddenly remembered the reason for today's cold war.
She asked depressedly: "What happened to you today? Why did you suddenly ignore people?"
When Cheng Juan heard this, he paused for a moment in the movement of peeling the shrimp: "It's my fault, it has nothing to do with you, I'm sorry."
"What's the matter with you? If you're unhappy, I'll adjust it for you."
Ruan Jiujiu leaned closer with a smile: "I'm definitely not happy about saving."
Cheng Juan said slowly, "Is it happier than eating alone?"
Ruan Jiujiu: "...you are still unhappy."
Cheng Juan didn't intend to speak, and Ruan Jiujiu had nothing to do with him. She simply stopped asking Cheng Juan and ate alone, which was considered harmonious.
Ruan Jiujiu was so full that he lay back on the chair and didn't want to move.
She asked sadly, "Will I get fat if I eat like this?"
Cheng Juan slowly popularized science: "Your daily basal metabolism is only about 1200 kcal, and your metabolic rate is lower if you don't exercise. You also eat high oil, high salt and carbohydrates at night, not only will you gain weight but also..."
"Do you want to die?" Ruan Jiujiu interrupted him with a sneer, "Women only want to hear one sentence at this time: You will never get fat."
Cheng Juan, who was forced to shut up, said that women only like lies that are harmful to them.
…
Cheng Juan paid the bill, while Ruan Jiujiu waited behind him with his hands in his pockets.
The good looks of the two attracted the attention of other people in the store. Even the cashier clerk was very polite, offering a 36% discount on everything they said, and even gave them a VIP card. I hope they will come again next time.
Ruan Jiujiu put on a down jacket hat and tried to cover half of his face. Fortunately, Cheng Juan moved quickly, and took Ruan Jiujiu away after paying the bill.
It was pitch black outside, and Ruan Jiujiu shivered from the cold.
She followed Cheng Juan's footsteps and walked towards the place where her home was. The two of them hadn't taken a few steps when suddenly a car sped past and almost ran over the pedestrian area from the road. Ruan Jiujiu's eyes blurred before she could panic , and was pulled back tightly by a strong force. She staggered and took a few steps to the side. Fortunately, Cheng Juan's movements were steady so that she would not fall in embarrassment.
Then, she bumped her head against Cheng Juan's body.
Cheng Juan pressed Ruan Jiujiu's wobbling head with one hand, and asked, "Are you injured?"
He lowered his head, and the distance suddenly narrowed. Under the dim light, his eyelashes fluttered like a crow's feathers, and his lowered eyes lost their usual indifference when staring at Ruan Jiujiu. His pupils were extremely black, smudged with the deep ink color of the night, with strong emotions Ruan Jiujiu couldn't see clearly.
Not to mention she was hurt, Cheng Juan's quick reaction was still far away from the car.
Ruan Jiujiu's sluggish nerves finally made her feel the lingering fear in her heart, and her small face was snow-white.
"It's nothing, go home."
Cheng Juan hummed, but did not let go.
He took Ruan Jiujiu's arm and walked towards the place where his home was. His footsteps were a little fast, making Ruan Jiujiu involuntarily trot along with him. Cheng Juan seemed to realize that she couldn't keep up, so he deliberately slowed down so that Ruan Jiujiu could keep up.
Ruan Jiujiu suddenly felt that Cheng Juan was quite attractive when he was serious. The peerless beauty at that moment even made her a little dazed.
The two of them were silent all the way, except for the slapping of their shoes on the ground. Ruan Jiujiu didn't feel uncomfortable being pulled by the arm. She walked a few steps and whispered, "Thank you."
Although it was only her husband in name, Cheng Juan was quite reliable.
Cheng Juan hummed lightly.
He was wearing a long black down jacket. He was slender and tall. He only left Ruan Jiujiu with a lazy and casual side face as usual, as if he was indifferent to Ruan Jiujiu's thanks, with a cool energy.
Ruan Jiujiu glanced at him, then at him again.
"Ok… "
Ruan Jiujiu looked hesitant.
"How do you walk with the same hands and feet?"
Cheng Juan: "..."
