Chapter 107: Leaving with grievances
Standing outside the door of the "Fat Man's Stall", I blew on my stiff hands, then opened the door and walked in. I looked around but couldn't find an empty seat.
I queued up to order, and waited for almost 5 minutes before it was my turn. The cashier was a little surprised when she saw me, so I told her to be calm, and then ordered a bowl of soy milk and a Kung Pao Chicken Rice Bowl as my meal.
's dinner.
After paying the bill, I looked around again, but still couldn't find an empty seat, so I stood in the corner and waited.
"Zhang Yixi, come here to share a table."
I followed the sound and saw that it was Bai Jing. She found an empty table first and then noticed me, so she invited me to share a table with her.
I nodded gratefully to her and sat down opposite her.
"You are the helmsman of the Fatty Restaurant, do you want to order food and wait for an empty table?" Bai Jing looked at me in confusion and asked.
I smiled and said, "I'm just like you when I'm eating, just an ordinary customer."
Bai Jing praised it and said, "Not bad, it's people-friendly enough."
I smiled again and even responded to Bai Jing, but my attention was focused on the snowflakes flying outside the window. I really don’t know how long this snow will continue to fall!
The food Bai Jing and I ordered was brought to us by the waiter a moment later, and the two of us started eating.
"Hey, Zhang Yixi, is the woman you are with today your girlfriend?" Bai Jing suddenly asked me.
"Which one?" I raised my head and asked.
Bai Jing thought for a while and said: "The one who is particularly beautiful...by the way, is wearing a long red coat."
I knew that according to Bai Jing's description, it was definitely An Qi, so I nodded and admitted.
"Zhang Yixi, how did I find out that you are a boring gourd? You are nothing like Zuo Lan!" Bai Jing was very dissatisfied with my silence.
"Sorry, I drank too much at noon today and I feel a little uncomfortable."
My behavior of not being angry but apologizing made Bai Jing a little embarrassed, so she didn't say anything more, lowered her head and started eating by herself.
It wasn't until the meal was almost finished that Bai Jing and I communicated again. I asked her: "Has Zuo Lan had a hard time in the past few years?"
Bai Jing looked very surprised at my question: "I thought you Zhang Yixi no longer had this first girlfriend in your heart."
Not only was Bai Jing surprised, but I was also surprised. I didn't know why I suddenly asked Bai Jing this question. It seemed to be an instinct that was beyond my control.
"Actually, you should ask Zuo Lan if she is doing well... However, I can tell you that when she left you, she definitely left with grievances."
My fragile nerves were aroused by Bai Jing's words without any preparation. After a while, I asked Bai Jing: "Can you explain it more clearly?"
Bai Jing shook her head and said, "If you really want to know, just ask Zuo Lan himself. I don't know exactly what happened."
Bai Jing's hazy words made me fall into entanglement again. Subconsciously, I wanted to know why Zuo Lan left me back then. But it has been so long. Is there any point in asking now?
.......
I walked in the snow blankly, lowering my head to prevent the snowflakes from falling on my face, but I saw the transparent and crystal clear ground, but my world was not as white as the ground. There were too many, too many
There are so many unknowns waiting for me to uncover them.
Back at the hotel, I lay on the bed, tossing and turning, and my brain was filled with random thoughts. This divergent thinking made me unable to find a focus, so I became more and more anxious, wishing I could take a shower this winter.
Cold bath.
I finally couldn't bear it any longer and dialed Zuo Lan's phone number. Although I knew it was pointless to investigate the past now, I was not a person who liked to live in a muddle. I wanted to find out what Zuo Lan was because of the pain he suffered back then.
What kind of grievance did you have to leave me?
The phone was answered when I was feeling uneasy, and Zuo Lan's somewhat unexpected voice came through: "Yixi, is something okay?"
I controlled my emotions and said in as calm a tone as possible: "I want to talk to you, right now."
"Not now, Pippi hasn't gone to bed yet. I don't feel comfortable leaving him alone at home." Zuo Lan rejected my request.
"Then you call me when he rests. I have to talk to you." I said persistently.
"If there is anything, you can discuss it on the phone."
"I couldn't explain it clearly on the phone. I'll tell you when we meet later...Pippi called me when she was asleep, that's it." I didn't give Zuo Lan another chance to refuse, so I hung up the phone after saying that.
.
........
The snow seems unwilling to stop. Standing at the window and looking out, the world has been completely covered in white. You can predict what kind of snow scene it will be like tomorrow morning.
Waiting always makes people anxious. I couldn't wait for Zuo Lan's call. I looked at the time and it was already 9 o'clock at night. At this time, Fatty Restaurant was already preparing to close its business. I made a call to inquire.
How the store is operating today.
I am very satisfied with the result of the inquiry. Today we sold a total of 578 membership cards. The minimum recharge amount for each membership card is 200 yuan. In the end, we received about 150,000 yuan in cash from the membership card alone. In addition, many members
The membership card consumption was nearly 1,000 yuan, which was a miracle figure and finally added some comfort to my messy life.
I ended the call with the store manager. Almost at the same time, the doorbell rang outside. I was a little surprised. Who would come to visit me at this time? Or the hotel's cleaning staff?
I opened the door, and to my surprise, it was Angel standing outside the door, with unmelted snowflakes on her shoulders and a thermos box in her hand.
"Why are you back? Didn't you say you would spend the night at the resort tonight?"
"It's not because I was worried about you that I drank so much wine like I was dying!" An Qi said and walked into the house. She put the thermos box on the table and said: "This is the red date and snow pear soup I bought specially.
, it’s good for your stomach, drink it quickly.”
An Qi went to the bathroom and wiped her slightly wet hair with a dry towel. Seeing me standing there dumbfounded, she said again: "Why are you just standing there? I went to many stores to buy the soup. You should drink it while it's hot."
.”
"Oh!" I responded seemingly calmly, but I was extremely moved in my heart.
I poured myself a bowl and took two sips. It tasted pretty good. I said to An Qi who was busy in the bathroom: "You can come out and drink some too. It tastes pretty good."
"You drink first, I'm busy." An Qi responded, and turned on the hair dryer to blow her hair. I suddenly found that everything seemed so natural and calm, and we seemed like a young couple living together.
At this time, the phone finally rang. I quickly took the phone out of my pocket. Sure enough, it was Zuo Lan calling. She should have put Pippi to sleep.
On the phone, I heard Zuo Lan gently closing the door. Her voice was even softer: "Pippi has fallen asleep. Come out."
"Well, wait for me at KFC in Lotte Mart." I said.
"I know, please drive slower on the road."
"The same to you."
.......
I put on a thick jacket, a scarf, and gloves, and came to An Qi who was still drying her hair in the bathroom and said, "I'm going out to do some errands and I'll be back in a while."
An Qi turned off the hair dryer, put it back in its place, and asked, "It's very late now, what else do you have to do?"
I was stunned for a moment and then said: "The Fatty stall will be closed soon. I'm going to patrol the store."
"I'll go with you, just in time to drink another cup of hot soy milk." An Qi said and left the bathroom, then tied her scarf and put on her gloves.
