I'm quite happy about this, at least she doesn't completely care about my life or death.
But I am really scared. The person I have offended is Li Laoer, a local gangster in Yunlong County. Will he let me go?
But Zhu Xiaoyan is not as worried as I am. She is quite happy, after all, she has gained control of all the garbage trucks in the county.
As for my life and death, for her, it is probably a matter of keeping it if it can be saved, and not keeping it if it cannot be saved.
She arranged a room for me to stay in tonight, which was a small room filled with sundries and didn't even have a window.
Her house is so big and has so many rooms, but she arranged such a utility room for me.
From this it can be seen that I am insignificant in her eyes, and allowing me to stay with her tonight is already worthy of me.
Of course I didn't say anything, saving my life was more important.
After arranging the room, she was ready to order takeout.
Ever since I entered her house, I discovered that she usually eats takeout, and there are empty takeout boxes piled up everywhere in the living room outside without clearing them away.
And I also saw that she didn't like to clean up. The mess in the house also proved that she didn't hire a servant.
This makes sense. A cautious person like her would not easily ask a stranger to live with her.
As she was ordering takeout, I asked her, "Can you use the kitchen?"
She tilted her head and looked at me and said, "What are you doing?"
"I know how to cook. If you let me come to your place, I have to be worthy of your kindness. I'll cook for you." I said this on purpose, just to make her trust me more.
"You know how to cook?!" She looked at me in surprise.
I nodded heavily and said, "How can a child who has been homeless since childhood live on his own?"
“But there’s no food!”
"Just buy it."
"Are you going to buy it?"
"Uh," I pondered for a moment, then said with a smile, "How about you go with me? I'm afraid what if I come back after I go out?"
"Why bother? I can just order takeout." As she said that, she picked up her phone and pressed it.
I continued to say to her: "Eating takeout is unhygienic. You don't know that many takeout restaurants do not operate offline. Their stores can only be described as dirty and messy."
"You know so much?"
"Everyone who lives at the bottom knows it."
I don't know which words moved her. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and stood up and said, "Okay, let's go."
I took a deep breath and went out with her.
I noticed when I came here just now that there is a large supermarket outside the community.
After arriving at the supermarket, I pushed a shopping cart, put some of the condiments I needed into the shopping cart, and went to the vegetable section.
I asked her: "What do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine, I don't have any particular favorite food."
I nodded, and then bought a few things that I like to eat, which are also my specialties. I must eat her stomach today.
After buying vegetables, I went to the fruit section to buy some fresh fruits.
After wandering around for more than half an hour, we headed back carrying our large and small bags.
To be precise, I was carrying large and small bags alone, while Zhu Xiaoyan walked in front of me with empty hands.
After returning to Zhu Xiaoyan's residence, I went straight to the kitchen and started working. It was a waste of money to not use such good kitchen utensils.
During the whole process, Zhu Xiaoyan came and urged me three times, asking me to move faster.
Except when she came to urge me, she would never come to the kitchen to take a look. Even if she came to urge me, she would stand far away from the kitchen.
After an hour of busy work, I finally made this dinner.
It's quite rich, including my favorite braised pork, fried pork with green pepper, ribs and corn soup, and a small stir-fry.
They are all home-cooked dishes. In fact, I don’t know if she is used to them.
After putting all the dishes on the table, I served another bowl of rice to Zhu Xiaoyan, and she even had to bring the chopsticks to her.
She sat at the dining table, first took a look at the dishes on the table, nodded with satisfaction and said, "It looks good, but I don't know how it tastes."
"Try it and see."
She immediately picked up her chopsticks, picked up the fried meat with green peppers and tasted it.
I looked at her with great concentration and asked expectantly: "How is it?"
She didn't answer me, but she answered me with practical actions. She picked up another chopstick.
Seeing her move, I knew she was satisfied, so I pointed to the bowl of braised pork, my specialty, and said to her, "Try this again."
"It's too fat, I won't eat this."
"Try it, it's fat but not greasy. If it doesn't taste good, just spit it out."
She still didn't try it and only ate the plate of side dishes and fried pork with green peppers.
I directly picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork, put it into her bowl, and said, "Try it, just one."
She turned around and glared at me, saying coldly: "Who asked you to put vegetables in my bowl?"
"I just want you to taste it and spit it out if it doesn't taste good."
She picked up the braised pork I had just put into her bowl and was about to throw it away. I also sighed.
But she put the piece of braised pork into her mouth and tasted it with a look of discomfort on her face.
I kept paying attention to her expression, which gradually changed from a sad expression to a relaxed one, and finally she felt a little unfinished.
The moment she took the initiative to pick up the braised pork, I finally felt relieved and started eating it too.
"I didn't expect you to actually know how to cook, and you're pretty good at it."
"I said I would do it."
Zhu Xiaoyan said to me while eating: "Then you will cook for me."
"Sister Yan, do you want me to stay at your place forever?"
Zhu Xiaoyan was silent for a while and said: "It depends on the situation! It also depends on your performance."
I nodded happily, as long as she can trust me, it will be enough. It would be better if I could let you stay with her all the time.
After eating, I took the initiative to wash the dishes. Anyway, I was quite diligent, even more diligent than at my own home.
Zhu Xiaoyan still didn't care about anything. After sitting in the living room for a while, she went upstairs.
After I finished washing the dishes, I was not idle. I took out all the takeout boxes she had eaten before and threw them away. I also cleaned the house.
While cleaning, Zhu Xiaoyan's voice suddenly came from upstairs: "Pour me a glass of water."
"okay."
I found the water glass, took a glass of warm water from the water dispenser, and carried it upstairs carefully.
I saw her exercising in a room. This room was a small gym filled with various fitness equipment.
Zhu Xiaoyan was wearing a sportswear, her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she was already sweating.
No wonder she maintains such a good figure. It really answers the saying: There are no ugly women in the world, only lazy women.
It can be said that Zhu Xiaoyan may not be very good-looking, but her figure is amazing!
When I brought the water glass in front of her, I accidentally saw her chest rising and falling with her breathing.
Beads of sweat flowed down her neck, making me feel a little angry.
Especially when she drinks water, I can't help but swallow my saliva.
It wasn't until she handed me the water glass that I came back to my senses and looked away from her chest.
"Okay, go down! I didn't call you, so don't disturb me."
I nodded, then pushed it out, and she continued to exercise.
After I came out of the gym, my breathing became rapid. After all, I am a normal man, so I would be lying if I said I didn't feel it.
But I didn’t think about it any more and continued to go downstairs to tidy up.
Zhu Xiaoyan didn't call me anymore. She had been exercising upstairs, and I could still hear her breathing while exercising.
Just when I was about to finish tidying up, I found a photo in a small compartment under the coffee table. There was already some dust on it.
I took the photo out and wiped off the dust with my hands.
Taking a closer look, isn't the person in the photo Antonsen?
