Chapter 18 The Unspoken Secret
Chapter 18 The Unspoken Secret
The author has something to say: It's been a few chapters of warmth, let's add some intensity and excitement, shall we?
The days passed in full swing.
Because the boss said that the people from Haohan Consulting have high incomes, and the meal standard can be raised higher, so in the end they agreed on a standard of 30 yuan per person per serving, and a [-]% discount if they buy a whole week at once.
Qi Siyu was extremely efficient in handling affairs, and in less than a day, he attracted more than 70 people into the group.There are also quite a few regular customers of Juqi Restaurant in the office building, word of mouth spread about the delivery, and many people took the initiative to join the group. Within three days, the number of people in the group was almost [-].
[Juqi Grain Bureau Haohan Branch]
This is the name given by Qi Siyu, which has a sense of age.
Liang Ze is also in the group.Because of his small appearance, people who came down to get food called him Xiaoliang, and later he simply changed his name in the group to Xiaoliang, and he was safe when he came.
Every day at 12:30 noon, he packed the prepared lunch in an incubator, transported it to the downstairs of the company with a battery car, and then sent a message to inform everyone to send a representative downstairs to pick up the meal.
This matter was taken over by him. He was not only responsible for counting the number of orders and cooking, but also responsible for delivering food and collecting payments. He was very busy every day.After things were on the right track, the boss originally asked him to do this job exclusively and leave the rest alone, but out of salary considerations, he still took the initiative to apply for the evening shift until 12 o'clock in the morning.
After two weeks of such high-intensity continuous rotation, his body soon became a little bit overwhelmed, but he didn't say anything to anyone, and he kept gritting his teeth and persisted.
He couldn't straighten his waist after cooking on Friday, thinking that he might be able to see Wu Ke, so he didn't let others do it for him.
After delivering the meal, Qi Siyu waited in the lobby for a long time, and only after finishing taking it did Qi Siyu stride over: "I'm sorry, did you wait so long? The meeting has not ended, and Wu Ke is still dealing with the boss on it."
Liang Ze bent down and took out the last box of lunch in the foam box, and lifted the thermos bucket on the table.The ones for Wu Ke have always been different from those for others, and they are packed separately in an insulated bucket.
The moment he straightened up, he was a little dizzy, and his figure swayed, Qi Siyu quickly took the things: "It's all right."
"It's fine." Liang Ze stood up straight.
"What's wrong with you? Are you sick? Your face is so pale."
"It doesn't matter, it's just that I'm too tired to cook these days."
"Why do you work so hard? The body is the capital of the revolution. If you can't do it, you can limit it. By the way, how did you get here? Is it a battery car? How about I call Wu Ke down and let him drive you? You can ride on the road like this." Too dangerous."
Liang Ze shook his head again and again: "Don't disturb his work, I'll just rest and rest."
Maybe it was cooler with the wind blowing on the way back, and his head was not so dizzy, and he regained most of his strength.I thought there was nothing wrong at first, but I didn't expect to get home from get off work after eleven o'clock in the morning, and when I walked halfway, I felt that something was wrong with me.
The liver throbbed in pain, followed by a nosebleed.
He quickly retreated to the side of the road and sat down, frantically looking for toilet paper.Before he could find it, a battery car passed in front of him, and returned after a while.
"Dude, throw up? Hurry up and wipe it off."
The person who handed him the tissue was wearing a helmet and sounded like a man.
"Thank you, I didn't throw up, I just had a nosebleed..." Liang Ze took out a piece of paper to cover his nose, and then raised his head in the darkness.
"Huh?" The other party seemed to know him, and after a few glances, he asked uncertainly, "Are you Liang Ze?"
He was slightly taken aback, and nodded.
"I just feel like you." He took off the helmet, a sweaty face, a small scar at the end of the right eyebrow, "Do you still recognize me? He Feng."
"He Feng?"
Probably because his blank expression was too obvious, He Feng grinned: "Isn't it you, anyway, I saved your little life back then, so I forgot your savior so quickly?"
Liang Ze opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to dig out this person from the depths of his memory, his expression instantly became extremely unnatural.What a savior, how can it be so exaggerated.
"Looks like I remembered it." He Feng smiled mischievously.
How could I meet this person here...
He closed his mouth, his peripheral vision flickered for a moment, and then he asked, "Why are you coming to the river?"
"You can come, but I can't." His tone of voice is still the same as before, "And everyone in the town who has some skills has come to Linjiang, and I can only starve to death in my hometown. I also come to earn some money to spend. .”
The two of them lived very close to each other before, but He Feng dropped out of junior high school, so they didn't meet too much since they were young.If Liang Ze hadn't fainted at the door of the house due to some unspeakable injuries back then, I'm afraid I wouldn't have gotten to know him too well in this life.
"What are you doing now? Why are you still getting nosebleeds on the street? I remember you thought there was nothing wrong with it." He Feng hung the helmet on the handlebar, and handed him a bottle of water, "Here, wash it Wash your hands, the blood on your hands in the middle of the night is too scary."
"Thank you. I cook for people in a restaurant. I'm too tired these two days. It's not a big problem."
"Understood, there is someone on our construction site who is also like this, just spoiled."
"You work at the construction site?"
"Yes, it's not far ahead. If you have time, you can find me there. Let's go out and play together."
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land is more cordial than embarrassing, and you get acquainted after chatting.Liang Ze nodded: "Yes, yes, but I've been too busy recently, let's wait a while."
"Where do you live, I will send you a section."
It was true that he was too tired to leave, so Liang Ze sat in the back seat and showed him the way, "Turn right at the second intersection in front of you, go in and you will be there about 600 meters away."
Compared with Liang Ze, He Feng's battery car drove better, and the speed was very fast along the way, so Liang Ze had no choice but to hug his waist tightly.After arriving at the gate of the community, he proposed to leave a contact information, but the input method of the mobile phone was strokes, Liang Ze couldn't use it, so he typed slowly.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, how are you and your crush?" He Feng suddenly turned his head, "I heard that you went to the south to work a few years ago, and I thought you went to find him."
Liang Ze's hands froze and he almost dropped his phone.
"I'm relying on you to get excited, I just bought it new." He Feng took it distressedly.
"...can you please stop talking nonsense."
"What am I talking nonsense about? Just asking casually won't do. Didn't you tell him—"
"Liang Ze."
Suddenly there was the sound of a car door closing not far away.
The two turned their heads at the same time and saw Wu Ke's tall and broad figure approaching.Liang Ze immediately climbed down from the battery car, subconsciously blocking the sight of the two of them.
But Wu Ke's gaze passed him immediately, and looked straight at He Feng behind.He Feng looked at the two of them meaningfully, then smiled ambiguously, "This is—"
"This is my friend." Liang Ze introduced them first, "This is my fellow villager."
"Hello."
Probably because Wu Ke nodded and looked too decent and meticulous. He Feng was deeply impressed by him, and immediately remembered where he had seen him before, "Damn it, you just—"
"Don't you have something else to do?" Liang Ze turned his head and cast a pleading look.
"Oh, I got it wrong." He Feng reacted quickly, put on the helmet with a smile, "I think you are a bit like a star in a movie, and you thought I was lucky today. I'm leaving first, Liang Ze, see you later. "
Then he waved his hands and walked away.
Wu Ke frowned.
He noticed the scar under He Feng's eyebrows, and always felt that this feature was familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.While recalling, someone touched his elbow.
Bowing his head, it was Liang Ze who naturally pulled him back, his gestures were both restrained and affectionate, "Don't look, I'm not the kind of fellow that I know very well, I just ran into it by chance. Go home."
Touched by the last three words, the doubts just disappeared in an instant.Wu Ker hummed, turned and walked towards the car parked by the side of the road.
Liang Ze was still a little nervous after touching him, afraid that he would resent such physical contact, but seeing that he didn't react too aggressively, he was relieved and stepped up to follow.
"Have you eaten your lunch?"
"Ah."
"What do you think? Is there any room for improvement? Is the clam and winter melon soup fishy?"
As the first customer of a new dish, Wu Ke would occasionally give him some valuable advice.
"The skin of the wax gourd is not removed thoroughly, and some are hard to bite."
Liang Ze took out his phone: "I'll make a note." In the next second, a new text message popped up on the screen: "I'm He Feng, and this is my Linjiang number. I'll ask you out for a drink some other day, so don't block me." ah."
He immediately locked the screen.
"Why don't you remember again?" Wu Ke's eyes narrowed.
"Go back and write it down. It's too dangerous to type while walking."
They didn't say a word until they entered the house.Liang Ze came out of the shower and overheard Wu Ke talking on the phone.
"Just got off work."
"Don't worry...um...how are you, auntie..." Wu Ke noticed him, got up and walked to the balcony, "Leave next month."
The hand that was wiping his hair stopped, Liang Ze stood in a corner of the living room, looking at the back of the phone call outside the glass door.The past two weeks have gone so smoothly, so smoothly that I almost forgot about Wu Ke's leaving.But time waits for no one, and the day of parting is still approaching day by day.
Through the door, the voice could not be heard clearly.With his left hand in his pocket and his right hand holding his cell phone, Wu Ke was facing the silent night in the distance.
Looking at Liang Ze's heart tightening, he felt out of breath, so he turned around and went to the bathroom to put a towel.Come back and the call is over.
"Your aunt?"
"Well, she's coming to visit on weekends."
Liang Ze nodded lightly: "Okay, then I'll go back to the dormitory on weekends."
"No, she's here to discuss business, drop by to see me. If you don't mind, you can stay and have a meal together."
I knew before that Wu Ke had an aunt who was also in Linjiang, but I had never met her.Liang Ze asked, "Is it possible?"
"I mentioned you to her."
"Did you mention... me?"
Wu Ke didn't explain, and turned to get his pajamas.
Liang Ze's heart warmed up: "Then I'll be in charge of cooking. Eating at home is more hygienic than going out. Elderly people should also like it."
"She's not an old man."
"Ok?"
"You'll know when you meet."
He groaned, watched the door open, and concealed it.Through the door, many words become easier to ask.
"Have you set a time to go abroad?"
"The seventeenth of next month."
The smile that just emerged froze on his face: "So soon, I thought it would be the end of next month."
"Wouldn't it be better to leave early?" Wu Ke's voice was far away and faint, "What are you doing?"
His attitude suddenly became a little colder, compared to before.Liang Ze vaguely knew why, so he stood there and waited for him to finish taking his clothes. When he came out, he smiled and said, "Today I got a nosebleed again. It's like acting in a TV show. It's inexplicable."
Wu Ke raised his head and frowned: "When are you in the store?"
"No, on the way home. I had a stream all of a sudden, and I didn't bring any paper. Fortunately, I ran into my fellow villager. He passed by on a battery car and thought I had drunk too much. He asked me 'did you throw up?'. It was really annoying. funny."
After standing for a while, Wu Ke went back to the bedroom without saying a word and took out his mobile phone: "Give me your ID number."
"doing what?"
"I'll make an appointment for a physical examination for you, and I'll go tomorrow."
Liang Ze's eyes widened slightly, and for a moment, his nose was so sore that he couldn't speak, and his chest was flooded with guilt.I said it deliberately in order to change the subject, but Wu Ke took it so seriously and valued it so much, even more than himself.
He wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, so his expression was very ugly and ugly.
Wu Ke frowned: "How much, tell me."
He shook his head.
"Don't go?"
"Yeah." His voice was choked up as soon as he opened his mouth.He took two steps closer and raised his eyes, staring at Wu Ke's serious face from bottom to top, "I won't go alone, I want to go together."
Wu Ke frowned even tighter: "How old are you, are you joking about this kind of thing?"
Liang Ze really started to laugh, but his eyes were so moist that he couldn't hold back, "No, it's not a joke. You also stay up late every day, how do you know that you must be healthy? If you want to go, go together. I haven't had a physical examination in a big hospital yet. But, I'm afraid of making a fool of myself."
"you--"
Wu Ke has nothing to do with him.
It seems that whether to lie or not is not so important, Liang Ze has something he doesn't want to say, so let's not say it, Wu Ke began to accept his fate.If they can live peacefully and happily before leaving, why bother to ask everything to the end.
But Liang Ze stood there, thinking about another thing.There is no doubt that Wu Ke treats him well.Even if it is just a friendship, it is a friendship that people will never forget.In the past, he always said that Wu Ke was the most important one to him, but now he gradually realized that he was also the most important one to Wu Ke, even though he had to use the word "friend" at the end to explain it.
But so what, he loves Wu Ke and has no complaints or regrets.Regardless of whether he got it or lost it in the end, he has had such a relationship that can be called death without regret, he is already much braver than others, so what if the end is far away?
