Chapter 5: Weak and pitiful but edible

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The phone was hung up, and Li Peifeng felt like he was going to hang up too.

"Death follows you like a shadow!"

"How the hell could I starve to death at the foot of the Imperial City, the capital of the Eastern Kingdom?!"

Unwilling to be reconciled, he picked up the phone with trembling hands and called Xu Manying again...

Fortunately, it was connected.

"I'll wait for you at the Cantonese fast food restaurant at the south gate of the school."

Regardless of the silence on the other end, Li Peifeng repeated the location of the hotel, and then added a little hesitantly: "If you really don't want to come, you can order takeaway for me... I'm really going to starve to death."

Humble little Li, begging for food online.

"Forget it if you starve to death!"

Xu Manying sneered twice and hung up the phone for the second time. But more than ten seconds later, she replied to Li Peifeng on WeChat:

"(Smile) Go to the hotel and wait."

Just wait! I'm afraid of you?

Seeing this reply, Li Peifeng's heart finally fell to the ground and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

According to his understanding of Xu Manying, there is a high probability that the other party will come. He was just a little angry when he heard that she was asked to treat him.

But seeing herself in such a miserable state, Xu Maning would jump three feet high in excitement, run thousands of miles without even taking a sip of water, and turn all her resentment and anger into a dagger full of poison when she met.

While sneering, he clenched the dagger, giving himself a hard blow to his "wanting to get back together" and his hot and "loving" heart, and then kicked himself away like a wild dog on the roadside...

"However, I have been fishing for ten years now. My heart is as cold as my fishhook. You can't hurt me at all!"

"Having said that, the breakup was clearly just a matter of inappropriateness between the two parties, but you are so resentful. Sure enough, you are still immature."

Li Peifeng began to prepare for going out.

In any case, this is considered a date, and in the future, you will expect the other party to go shopping for you and spend 30,000 yuan...

So, Li Peifeng dressed up a little, brushed his teeth, washed his face, shaved, styled his hair, then put on a stylish black windbreaker and military boots, and looked in the mirror with his most energetic attitude at the moment,

See what else needs to be sorted out.

"Except for looking a little pale, perfect!"

Looking at himself in the mirror, Li Peifeng smiled happily.

"If she doesn't come, find someone else to invite her."

"With a face like this and a body like this, if I just go out on the street and shout, thirty-eight women will be willing to take care of my three meals a day."

"No way, he's so handsome! Starve to death? That doesn't exist!!"

Just as he was about to open the door and go out, Li Peifeng hesitated for a moment, turned around and returned to the room, rummaged through the cabinets and found an 8k piece of paper, which seemed to have something drawn on it.

"I almost forgot about this."

He looked at it carefully, carefully rolled up the paper, put it into a long plastic cylinder, then stood up and left the house with the cylinder in hand.



Li Peifeng's handsomeness is the kind that is unquestionably handsome, the kind that is clearly handsome, the kind that makes girls look at him frequently when he walks on the street.

The height of 1.93 meters gives Li Peifeng the advantage to stand out from ordinary handsome men. The inverted triangle figure brought about by sports represents extraordinary attraction to the opposite sex.

Of course, the most important thing is Li Peifeng's sculpted and angular face, with his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes filled with the word "handsome" written horizontally and vertically on his facial features, which is enough to bring a full impact to ordinary women passing by...

"Handsome guy, here you go again? Me?"

"No, there is another one."

The waitress at the Cantonese fast food restaurant greeted her warmly, and Li Peifeng responded feebly. Then under the guidance of the other party, she took a seat by the window and took off her mask.

This store is located near the south gate of North China Normal University, less than 800 meters away from Li Peifeng's rental house, but it still took him nearly ten minutes to walk, which was so hungry that he took more than twice the usual time.

The reasons for choosing this restaurant are also very simple. One is that it is close, and the other is that it sells porridge! There are a variety of porridges with plenty of ingredients, and the rice is cooked well. The meal is served quickly in time for the meal.

If he chooses other foods, Li Peifeng is afraid that his stomach will not be able to digest it if he is hungry for a long time, causing food stagnation.

“The only drawback is that the hotel atmosphere is not suitable for dates.”

Li Peifeng looked around. The business in the store was booming. There were twenty tables and the occupancy rate reached 80%. The surroundings were noisy. Many female diners subconsciously looked at him and whispered...

"Wow, look! Handsome guy!"

"God, he's so handsome!"

"He's so tall, he must be 1.9 meters, right?"

"Oh hoo~ I suddenly understand what the male protagonists in those novels look like."

"Hmph! Male lust is ruining the country and disrupting the imperial court! What's so good about this?!"

As a handsome guy, it is normal to receive such treatment. Li Peifeng did not feel any complacency and even felt tortured.

Just because of the aroma of food emanating from the porridge shop.

"I miscalculated. I shouldn't have entered the store so early. I should have waited at the door!"

"If she doesn't come after a while, then I can only find a girl in the store to have a bite of food and date someone else? I can't wait, my stomach can't wait!"

Li Peifeng wiped his saliva covertly, put on the mask with difficulty, and then closed his eyes to rest in an attempt to shut down his five senses and minimize the stimulation brought to him by the outside world.



An hour later, a cement gray Audi A7 parked in front of the store, and a girl wearing a white down jacket came out of the driver's seat, which attracted the attention of a few diners and passers-by in the store.

Because it is October in the golden autumn, and even the shadow of winter has not yet been seen, there are many pedestrians wearing long-sleeved and short-sleeved clothes on the street, but this girl is wearing a long down jacket, as if she has entered the cold winter in advance, and with her beautiful appearance,

It’s inevitable that people will take a second look.

The girl is tall and her long down jacket goes above her knees, but this way you can see her light pink sweatshirt and loose knitted pants, as well as her graceful figure that is difficult to conceal.

The hood of the down jacket is worn on the girl's head. The fluffy white edge blocks part of her face, and only her delicate jawline can be seen, adding a touch of mystery.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Who are you?" The waiter came up to greet me as usual.

"You two...are there."

After she entered the hotel, she took off her hat, and saw that her face was as delicate as water, her white teeth and eyebrows were straight, her nose was high, her eyes were as light as the moon, and her single-lidded eyes were a little slender, with an aura of alienation and coldness, and her long black eyes

The smooth and shiny hair is scattered on the shoulders, forming a sharp contrast with the plush white edges.

As soon as Xu Manying entered the door, she saw Li Peifeng.

"Hiss~slip~"

At this time, Mr. Li was sitting alone at the dining table by the window, drinking a small bowl of seafood porridge, his expression focused and moved, and his face full of satisfaction...

"Are you full? Looks like I don't need to treat you anymore."

Xu Maning walked to the side and sat across from Li Peifeng. Her tone was neither cold nor indifferent. She was obviously annoyed by his behavior of asking people to treat guests but eating in advance.

"I thought you weren't coming, I'm a little hungry... let's order food."

Li Peifeng also knew that he was in the wrong and felt a little embarrassed.

Just now, he saw that nearly fifty minutes had passed and Xu Manying hadn't come yet. He couldn't hold back his crazy hunger, so he took the initiative to strike up a conversation with the two girls at the next table who kept peeking at him, saying, "This porridge is good."

Do you want to drink it?" "It seems to taste quite good." "I'm a little hypoglycemic..." These three sentences successfully replaced a bowl of porridge.

[Zheng Ling gave a gift of food (converted to 5 yuan in money). There are still 1 yuan left before the lottery starts. Please continue to work hard. 】

In the beginning, the distance to the lottery was 50,000 yuan. Yesterday, Li Peifeng went to the hospital and the nurse gave him some bread and milk, which cost him 15 yuan. With the current five yuan of porridge, the distance to the lottery was still a drop in the bucket.

"Didn't you order?"

Xu Maning looked at the dining table. There was no food on it, only a cylinder containing something unknown. She couldn't help but wonder: "Then where did your porridge come from? It can't be..."

She glanced at the two girls at the next table who had been observing and whispering, and was very surprised: "Did you ask them for it?"

"A friend gave it to you. Why are you wearing a down jacket? It's not so cold now, is it?"

Li Peifeng hadn't stopped drinking the porridge yet. After hurriedly swallowing a mouthful, he tried to change the subject with the weather.

Xu Maning didn't take that trick, and looked back and forth between the other girl and the two girls at the next table. She vaguely understood the whole story, and her face turned from cloudy to overcast, accompanied by the sound of thunder...

"You have as many female friends as ever. I don't think there's any need for dinner. You're not short of someone to pay for it, Mr. Li. I still have things to do. Goodbye."

After Xu Maning said sarcastically, she put on her down hat with her hands and stood up to leave.

Real crisis caused by a bowl of porridge!

"I thought you weren't coming, and I was so hungry that I couldn't bear it. I hadn't eaten for three days, so I asked for a bowl of porridge to fill my stomach..."

Li Peifeng stood up to persuade him to stay, but he still didn't put down the porridge in his hand.

"Do you know how busy I am? Do you know how far my company is from here? Do you know that I was fined for a traffic violation on the way? I'm too lazy to tell you! Don't contact me again in the future!"

Xu Manying glanced at him with disgust, turned around and left.

oh it’s really bad~

I was caught eating soft food~

Li Peifeng decisively stretched out his other hand to grab her, and immediately redressed: "I was wrong. I ask you to sit down first."

Li Peifeng understood that what Xu Manying said was true. As the only daughter in a family business, she started helping her family manage the business after graduating from her undergraduate degree. She worked part-time and studied, so she was indeed very busy every day.

Therefore, Li Peifeng is even more unwilling to let her leave like this. If she leaves like this, the relationship between the two will deteriorate again. Whether they can make a date next time is unknown. How can they complete the assessment task?!

"No need!"

Xu Manying seemed to be really annoyed and dragged him out.

The latter was afraid of making the other party even more angry, so he didn't dare to pull hard. He quickly drank the porridge in the bowl, put down the rice bowl, picked up the cylinder, and followed her out of the store.

Xu Manying said coldly: "I'm very disappointed. Before I came here, I really believed what you said about getting to know each other again. Now I see..."

Li Peifeng just drank a bowl of porridge given by the girl at the next table. Although it was not much, it was very timely and effective for a person who was on the verge of fainting from hunger.

Now he only feels warm in his stomach. Gastric acid is secreting and digesting the few foods crazily. The glucose concentration in the blood is also rising rapidly. Naturally, his IQ has regained its high ground...

Therefore, Li Peifeng interrupted the other party and said sincerely: "You were at least half an hour late. During this period, I called you but you didn't answer. I really thought you weren't coming. I also understand that you are very angry."

.But can you understand me for not eating for three days?"

"You haven't eaten for three days? Are you kidding me?"

"And even if you are very hungry, you won't order your own food and eat it first?"

Xu Maning snorted disdainfully: "You actually begged for porridge from a strange girl. Are you really hungry, or are you just like before, just out of vanity and taking advantage of your appearance to get around with women, and you feel complacent when you see them fawning over you and admiring you?

, so that you forget that you are a poor man who is empty in his heart and lacks love, whose gold and jade are ruined on the outside, and who is abandoned and forgotten by the world?"

Stop scolding, stop scolding, you will be stupid if you continue to scold.

Li Peifeng suddenly remembered one of the important reasons why the two broke up, that is, he was disgusted with Xu Manying's overly venomous tongue, too pretentious, unreasonable, and unreasonable style of doing things. And the latter hated his super high affinity with the opposite sex.

He repeatedly asked him to delete his female friends in Weixin, but after receiving objections, the two gradually drifted apart.

Now Li Peifeng regrets it very much. He regrets it very much.

It seemed that Xu Manying didn't want to treat her to dinner, so why didn't she ask the two girls for two more bowls of porridge just now?

Is that a simple seafood porridge? That is my life!!
