Today is not a weekend. There are no people in the shopping mall below Raffles City. However, the restaurants on the third and fourth floors are full of customers. At the entrance of many stores, there are still many people who have taken a number and are sitting and waiting for a seat.
.
Most of these people come here by taking the elevator directly from the underground parking lot, so there are no crowds at the entrance of the shopping mall below, but the hotel area above is bustling with people.
Jiang Yihe led Yu to say hello and walked past several shops with good business. She frowned slightly and did not go in. She walked to the door of a Chaozhou restaurant. The receptionist laughed when he saw her and said, "Ms. Jiang
Are you here?"
It seems like she is a regular customer here.
Jiang Yihe smiled and nodded at her, welcoming them and leading them in.
Unlike other restaurants where business is booming, the Chaozhou restaurant is a bit deserted, with half of the customers seated inside. Yu Wenhao understands, everyone knows that Chaozhou cuisine is famously expensive, your restaurant is okay to open in Vientiane City, but it is open in
Isn't this place looking for death? Only people like Jiang Yihe who are not short of money and don't like to go to crowded places will come here.
The two of them sat down at a table in the corner. Jiang Yihe asked Yu what he wanted to eat.
"I don't know. I've never eaten Chaozhou food in my whole life. You can order it." Yu Wenhao said.
Jiang Yihe pursed his lips and smiled, and asked: "Are there any taboos?"
"I dare not, my stomach is made of stainless steel, it can be anything from bitter to spicy, sweet to salty," Yu Wenhao said.
Jiang Yihe chuckled: "Okay, then let me see if there is any iron ore and coke that I can burn."
She scanned the code with her phone, quickly ordered it, and put the phone down.
Jiang Yihe looked around, leaned over, lowered his voice and said hello to Yu: "Be patient, don't be in a hurry."
Yu Wenhao asked: "What are you doing?"
Jiang Yihe said: "Don't forget that the business of this store is not very good, there are not many customers, and the food is served very slowly. If you ask them, they will tell you, because all the ingredients in the store are fresh and made fresh."
."
Yu Wenhao nodded: "Maybe even the chefs have to be recruited on the spot."
Jiang Yihe suppressed a smile and looked at Yu Wenhao and nodded repeatedly: "I think so."
"Tell me, did you come here to eat to help the poor on purpose?" Yu Wenhao asked.
Jiang Yihe finally laughed and said, "No, it's because there are few people here. I hate it when many people eat together, it's very noisy."
The waiter brought them tea first, and the two of them drank tea and waited.
Jiang Yihe looked at Yu and said hello, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Brother Yu, can I ask you to do something for me?"
"Okay, what's the matter?" Yu Wenhao asked.
Jiang Yihe laughed: "I haven't said what it is yet."
Last night, Yu Wenhao choked Jiang Yihe like this. Jiang Yihe choked back today, and Yu Wenhao also said:
"I think you are not a bad person. You will definitely not let me do bad things."
Jiang Yihe nodded, looked at Yu saying hello, her face became serious, and she said: "Brother Yu, I want you to do the same thing tomorrow morning as you did today, okay, let's do a live broadcast?"
Yu Wenhao said yes, "If you want, I can live broadcast with you every day."
"Really?" Jiang Yihe's eyes flashed.
Yu Wenhao nodded and said: "Really."
"You're so kind, Brother Yu!"
Yu Wenhao said: "It's not that I'm too nice, it's that I hope you are well, really."
"Thank you!" Jiang Yihe said, lowering his head and remaining silent. After a while, she asked: "Brother Yu, do you think I'm sick?"
Yu Wenhao was stunned. He didn't expect Jiang Yihe to ask so directly. He was just thinking about how to answer this question when Jiang Yihe continued:
"It's okay, I'm just sick and I know it."
Jiang Yihe raised his head, looked at Yu and said hello, saying word by word:
"Brother Yu, actually, I knew I was sick. My parents refused to admit it and never thought of taking me to see a psychiatrist. They thought psychiatry was only for mental illness. If I went to see a psychiatrist,
That’s a mental patient, and they feel so embarrassed and humiliated.”
Yu Wenhao said: "It's true that there are many people, especially those of your parents' age, who still can't change their minds."
"Yes. I also know that this is not good, but I just can't control myself. As soon as I want to go out, my mind goes blank and I start to get nervous. Then I have to do everything over and over again. I wiped off the lipstick.
, I applied it and wiped it off, but I always felt that it was not applied properly and it looked ugly.
"It's the same with clothes. When I put this one on, I think it's better than that one, but then it's still the same when I put on that one. Sometimes, after using perfume, I feel that the smell of the perfume is wrong and smelly. I
I just took a shower again, washed away the smell of perfume on my body, and changed to another brand. Isn’t this a disease? But I just can’t control it, I have to do this.
"I don't know when it started, it should be in the third grade of elementary school. I went to see a doctor, and the doctor told me that it might be like that. I went to a psychiatrist, and I went there secretly. Brother Yu
, I was really in pain, and I wanted to change, so I went to see him, but all such mental illnesses require the cooperation of family members.
"I didn't even dare to tell my parents about going to see a psychiatrist, so how could I get them to cooperate, so I went to see a psychiatrist in vain..."
"What happened when you were in third grade?" Yu Wenhao asked.
"When I was a child, I grew up with my grandparents. My parents ran factories and didn't have time to take care of me. I grew up with my grandparents in the countryside. It wasn't until I was in the third grade of primary school that I went to Jincheng Town to go to school.
When I arrived in the county, for me, it was time to go to the city and go to school in the city. Of course I was very happy.
"But when I got to school, I couldn't speak Mandarin well. I was in a rural area and all I spoke was country dialect. My classmates all laughed at me and said I was a country bumpkin. Even our head teacher, when talking to me,
, all deliberately imitated my accent and made the classmates laugh.
"At that time, I really felt low self-esteem. I just wanted to hide and not see them. Or shrink, so small that no one could see me. Every morning, I thought about going to school.
I was very scared. In the middle of winter, I deliberately didn’t cover myself with a quilt at night, hoping that I would catch a cold and not have to go to school the next day, but it didn’t work.
"Every morning, I don't want to go to school and want to stay at home. My parents are in a hurry to go to the factory. When they see me dawdling, they will yell at me. Sometimes my dad gets angry and thinks I am too slow.
, he would also beat me and put me on the back seat of the motorcycle. He rode to the school gate and asked me to get off the car. As soon as I got off the car, he rode away. I felt like a piece of garbage, being thrown away.
There it is.
"When I got to school, I felt like a country bumpkin. I felt ugly. The clothes I wore were ugly, the shoes were ugly, they were all ugly. I always walked with my head down.
Those who walk into the classroom don't even dare to speak, and once they open their mouths, they become like a standard country bumpkin, that's it."
"So every time you go out, you want to make yourself perfect, right?" Yu Wenhao asked.
"That's right." Jiang Yihe nodded, "But no matter what I do, I will still feel ugly. No matter how expensive cosmetics I use, or how good I wear famous brands, it's useless."
