Chapter 18

After leaving the coffee shop, Natsuki and Tachibana Aya said goodbye to Shiraishi Reika. During the whole process, Tachibana Aya's expression was distorted and painful, and her usual smiling expression was completely gone.

Also, you can't explain things like psychological shadow clearly. There is no quantifiable standard at all, and I don't know how to judge the amount of harm it can cause to people. I can only give an indeterminate answer based on the expression of the person involved.

Such an accurate answer.

Judging from Tachibana Aya's expression, it was probably a precise critical hit that hurt her.

Did he go too far? Xia Zhi thought to himself.

Although she has brought a slanderous impression to her own image that is difficult to clean off, although she always comes to her home to play without invitation, although she often causes trouble for herself...it doesn't seem to be going too far?

However, Xia Zhi felt that he should appease her. After all, the amount of damage from the critical hit this time was a bit beyond expectations. The buff monster that could have been left with residual health with one more A hit, but you killed it with just one critical hit. The mid laner

You must be screaming mmp in your heart, right? But there is nothing you can do to explain it.

The faith crit of the top laner's female box can also kill people, right?

The two of them walked slowly, and Xia Zhi was arranging his words. He had to show his concern for her, but not reveal the slightest regret in his heart, otherwise she would definitely demand her money back, and Xia Zhi couldn't resist yet.

.Even if it goes too far, this is a situation that must be avoided at all costs.

"Well..." After about two seconds, Xia Zhi tilted his head slightly and looked at Tachibana Aya: "Are you okay?"

"..." Tachibana Aya glanced at Xia Zhi lightly and said nothing.

"If you don't say anything, I'll just assume you're fine?"

"..." Tachibana Aya still didn't speak, but the painful expression on her face became a little more intense. It was okay, Xia Zhi could tell at a glance that this guy was showing off his acting skills again. But she would definitely not expose her directly.

I will admit it. What should I do?

“I originally wanted to invite someone for a meal, but it seems I’ll forget it...”

This time, Tachibana Aya's face showed some struggle, probably struggling to continue acting or to bow to the power of food. She said "Hmm..." for a while, then looked at Xia Zhi: "What should we eat?"

?”

"Drink the northwest wind." Xia Zhi said expressionlessly, like an emotionless killer.

Tachibana Aya, who instantly understood that she had been tricked, immediately put on the hurt expression just now, and the pain became more and more intense.

"Do you still have a conscience? You actually deceived a beautiful girl who is in such pain."

"If the pain were real, I would really feel guilty." It's a pity that you are a fake.

Really, if you want to act, be more serious...

"Hmph~"

After Tachibana Aya became a little emotional and knew that her acting skills could no longer continue, she put on a dissatisfied expression. Judging from the scene, it is probably her normal expression now, right? But this also means

Unsure, what should I do if I show dissatisfaction on my face but I am an emotionless killer on the inside?

Xia Zhi thought it would be better to remain dubious about Li Huacai. Even if she didn't have the talent to be a drama queen, but she had the idea of ​​a drama queen, it would be troublesome enough.

"So, is there any?"

"have what?"

"Dinner."

"……have it."

After all, even if she was in trouble, she received a lot of help from Aya Tachibana today. Although she didn’t know whether it was for her own pleasure or to help Xia Zhi, but in terms of the result, she did find the gift she wanted. In fact,

It's pretty good. And, apart from this, although the lunch at noon consists of various snacks, you can't just pretend it doesn't exist, right? So it's still necessary to return the invitation.

As for the time, today is the right day. I probably have the only free time today. In addition to going to school, I usually stay in the coffee shop, and even have dinner in the coffee shop. Although sometimes Xia Zhi does it, but

Judging from the finished product, it really isn’t much of a meal.

Therefore, if you want to invite people to dinner more formally, you probably have only two choices: eating out or making your own choice. The first option obviously does not exist, because Xia Zhi not only has no love, but also no money. Only

You have to buy ingredients and go back to your apartment to cook them yourself in order to maintain this kind of life.

And relatively speaking, the latter is more sincere than inviting people to eat out and cooking for others. Saving money is the second best. And generally speaking, the extra money spent to eat out is usually quite a lot.

It’s just used to buy time. Because you don’t have that much time to cook, so you spend money to let others do it. If you put aside the necessary cost of ingredients and treat the excess expenses as manual expenses, you will find that your

Time is quite valuable.

Of course, this algorithm may change depending on the region you are in, prices, purchasing power of money and other factors, but in general it can still be used as a source of self-deprecation.

My time is very valuable - five yuan an hour.

Of course, this money cannot be withdrawn. This is renewal money for your life. There is no way to check the balance, no way to recharge, and no way to withdraw cash, so please cherish it, just in case the deposit bottoms out one day.

what to do?

"What does it mean? Please explain it clearly." Tachibana Aya squinted her eyes: "It's really annoying for you Chinese to say something that is not obvious at all."

"This is called implicit. It is a way of communication that requires both parties to have high emotional intelligence. Sorry, I didn't think carefully."

"...What should I say, what the hell?"

Although he knew that Xia Zhi was definitely talking nonsense, Tachibana Aya really didn't know how to continue. Because the Chinese grammar is a quite, quite, quite complex system, a short sentence, the same vocabulary, the same order

, because different sentence fragments can produce different meanings, it is not unreasonable for Chinese to be among the top in the world in terms of learning difficulty.

A word has different meanings and different pronunciations. A meaning can be expressed by different words. In the process of expressing the sentence, it is wildly omitted, allowing you to guess what the sentence means based on the context, and the words are...

…Do you know how painful it is for foreigners when they first learn Chinese? It’s just as painful as us who have taken the CET-4 test four times and still haven’t passed it yet.

An international friend who did not want to be named once said: Self-study Chinese is almost the same as self-study mathematics. Xia Zhi did not know how painful it was to study mathematics by himself. His mathematics could only be kept above the passing line, and other than that he was very sad.

.

Just like when you learn English, you feel very painful. However, when foreigners learn Chinese, this pain will be multiplied several times. So English is really a relatively convenient language to learn.

Why am I saying this? Because I want to tell you——

No matter how easy it is to learn English, you still can't learn it.

"You're really not a straightforward person... Then I'll just take it for granted."

Xia Zhi didn't refute, and he wasn't planning to refute. But when Tachibana Aya started naming the dishes in Chinese next to her, Xia Zhi still couldn't ignore her.

"Then I want to steam lamb, steam bear paws, steam deer tail, roast duck, roast chicken, roast goose..."

"Are you the emperor? I haven't even eaten a few of the things you reported...How did you write this thing down?"

Tachibana Aya thought for a while: "I thought about asking you to treat me to a Chinese meal before, and then I searched for famous Chinese dishes. After giving the names of these dishes, I wrote them down. By the way, I can

Practice your speaking.”

"Are you the devil?"

Under normal circumstances, would someone use this thing to help them speak after they went out of their way to look up the name of a dish and got this result?

"Well, it's pretty easy to pronounce anyway, and I might be able to use it in the future."

It does make sense to say this. As for the name of this dish, it would not have spread so widely if it was not easy to pronounce. As for the possibility of using it, isn't it natural? When you don't know what to eat in the future, just press this

Isn’t it enough to just look for the name of the dish? How convenient, it gives patients with difficulty in choosing a way out.

Of course, it is probably impossible to eat all these things in a certain place... Even if you can eat them, 80% of the customers will doubt whether the cooking is authentic or not. Even if he has never eaten this dish,

I can't tell what the so-called authentic taste of this dish is at all.

"The only things I cook are shredded pork with green pepper, mapo tofu, braised lion's head and other home-cooked dishes that are not too troublesome to make. If you want to eat a Manchu banquet or something, I advise you to take all your property and go to China to find it.

.”

However, there seems to be no specific statistics on how many chefs in China can cook the Manchu-Hanban Banquet, but it should not be too many. Firstly, the Manchu-Hanbanese Banquet is too extravagant. Not to mention one person, even a whole family may not be able to do it.

After eating, even if you can do it, it will take time and effort, and money will be wasted. What are you trying to do?

Even the Man-Han Restaurant in Shenzhen probably hasn’t cooked a full Man-Han banquet for a long time, right? And most people can’t afford it...

"That's fine too. To be honest, I haven't had much Chinese food." Tachibana Aya was quite relieved.

"There are many Chinese restaurants in Japan, right?"

"Yes, there is, but I've never been there."

This is a bit strange. Now that the world is developing rapidly, most countries in the world are in a state of "you have me, and I have you". Basically, if you want to have contact, you can still get in touch, let alone this kind of restaurant.

. And as a high-end bourgeois, Tachibana Aya obviously has the conditions to go to such a restaurant.

"Why not go? I heard that there are many Chinese restaurants in Tokyo that even many Chinese people praise."

"Well, a lot of things have happened. You see, when I wanted to eat before, my parents were very busy and I didn't have much spare money, so I just put it off, and then I didn't really want to eat. Even now, a little bit

Now that I have some money, I am too lazy to go out and find any Chinese or Western restaurants, I can just find something that can satisfy me."

"In short, you just changed from a time when you had no money to a dead house with no way out now, right?" Xia Zhiyan concluded succinctly.

"How rude! I was working seriously!"

Although Tachibana Aya rebutted seriously, the core of the rebuttal was obviously not right...

So, is the Japanese otaku culture that goes hand in hand with the Chinese sand sculpture culture equally terrifying?
