Chapter 24
Pei Heyang tried his best not to say anything, and asked, "I just want to ask...how is your English review going?"
The person on the other side of the video smiled, "I can pass!"
"So powerful." Pei Heyang looked at the face on the screen, his mind was in a mess, he licked his lower lip, and suppressed the fire in his heart, "Then I can rest assured."
Chi Yue was so sleepy that his eyelids were about to close, "Come on, too."
Pei Heyang said: "Okay, you go to sleep."
"Then I..." Chi Yue slowly closed his eyes, "Go to sleep first."
I forgot when, the face on the screen turned into a ceiling, but the sound of even breathing became a sleep aid. Pei Heyang wore headphones and fell asleep quickly.
The next morning, Chi Yue opened his eyes, and went to touch the phone under the pillow as usual, but held it in his hand and pressed it for a long time, but the screen was still black.He yawned hugely, resisted his reluctance, lifted the quilt and got out of bed to get the charger.
After plugging in the power, he went to the toilet to brush his teeth and take a shower. After doing a handsome hairstyle, he came out with a towel wrapped around his waist.
It's not too late today, but the dark blue plastic slippers placed by the shoe cabinet made Chi Yue mistakenly think it was noon. He looked up at the watch on the wall, it was a quarter past nine.
Chi Jianguo left so early?
Not a single note was left.
Chi Yue felt that something was wrong, so he went into the room and used his mobile phone to make a call.
After about a dozen beeps, no one answered. He didn't give up, so he played it again, and it got through quickly.
Chi Jianguo's voice was a little hoarse, "What's the matter, son, I went to the wholesale market today to see if there is any good beef, it came out early."
Chi Yue breathed a sigh of relief, "I was taken aback. I thought there was something wrong with the noodle shop. I'm fine. I just wanted to ask where you are."
"What can you do at the noodle shop, silly boy, make some breakfast yourself, I have to go straight back to the noodle shop later, you're about to take the exam, don't come over for these two days, and study hard at home." Chi Jianguo asked a few words, and someone next to him talked to him, so he quickly told Chi Yue, "Son, I have something to do here, so hang up first."
"Okay, hang up." Chi Yue said.
After hanging up the phone, Chi Yue flipped through the chat history and looked at Pei Heyang who was on the top. He remembered that the two of them had a video before going to bed last night. He clicked in and saw that the call was long, and he was shocked.
It turned out that the phone was out of power like this.
Heart skipping a beat, Chi Yue put down his phone and went to the refrigerator to find something to eat.
When Ms. Wei was gone, the food leftovers at home ran low. Before, there were still some sesame seed cakes and ham left, but now the refrigerator is more than half empty.Just as Chi Yue was about to order takeaway with his mobile phone, there was a knock on the door outside.
He walked over to open the door inside and asked, "Who is it?"
Pei Heyang's voice sounded outside, "It's me, open the door quickly."
Without even thinking about it, Chi Yue opened the anti-theft door directly, with a surprised face, "Why are you here?"
Pei Heyang held up two paper bags and said triumphantly, "Bring you breakfast!"
After walking in, he stopped suddenly, and his gaze fell on Chi Yue's lower body and the bath towel around him.
After realizing it, Chi Yue pushed his face away, "Don't look."
Then he rushed into the bedroom and slammed the door behind him.
After a while, Pei Heyang let out a breath, and swept the tip of his tongue around his mouth. The evil fire on his body didn't seem to be going down. He took several deep breaths, but it still didn't work, so he simply put the paper bag on the table, Push the door and leave.
Just as Chi Yue changed his clothes and was about to come out, he heard the anti-theft door being shut with a 'snap'. He opened the bedroom door, and there was no one in the living room, only the breakfast bag on the table.
This kind of thing is too embarrassing, the best way is for neither of them to mention it, and let the transition happen naturally.
So, Chi Yue sat down, opened the paper bag, took out hamburgers, fried dough sticks and porridge from it, and ate breakfast quietly as if nothing happened just now.
Half an hour later, Pei Heyang knocked on the door again.Entering the room, he pointed to the breakfast bag on the table and asked, "How is it, is it delicious?"
Chi Yue glanced at the bag, nodded, and said, "It's delicious, thank you."
"You're welcome." Pei Heyang was a little unaccustomed to his tone, pulled up a chair and sat down, took the remaining bag, "Are you... full?"
Chi Yue was a little distracted, and replied after two seconds of reaction, "Well, I'm full, you can eat."
"Oh." Pei Heyang cleared his throat, "Then I'll eat."
Chi Yue rubbed his thighs, stood up and said, "Eat, I'll boil a pot of hot water."
"Okay." After Pei Heyang finished speaking, he didn't dare to look at him, and lowered his head to find out the food in the bag.
Chi Yue stayed in the kitchen until the water boiled, made tea, skimmed off the foam on the surface of the tea, and then came out with the teacup.
Pei Heyang looked up, and immediately pulled away the chair next to him to let him sit.
Chi Yue, who originally wanted to drink tea at the coffee table, had to sit down at the table.
There was an awkward silence between the two.
"Your figure...is pretty good, do you usually exercise?" Pei Heyang couldn't hold back, trying to solve this topic with small talk.
Because he found that no matter how much he held back, it would be better to use a joke to bring back the scene just now, so he asked a question that sounded normal.
Chi Yue didn't expect him to ask such a straightforward question. He took a sip from his teacup and said honestly, "I'm not healthy, and I haven't played for a long time."
In order to prevent him from asking further questions, Chi Yue simply strangled all topics related to sports.
"That's it..." Pei Heyang nodded, and then made another stab, "Then you are really beautiful, and you don't have any fat on your waist."
Chi Yue couldn't hold back, and gave him a white look, "You can shut up if you don't know how to chat, classmate Pei Heyang."
Pei Heyang immediately testified, staring at Chi Yue's non-stop drinking tea, and finally couldn't hold back his smile, "No, you said we two did it? Isn't it just naked? Who hasn't seen it before? Aren't we all like this?"
Chi Yue glanced over coldly, "That's you."
As soon as these words came out, Pei Heyang actually recalled them carefully. In the end, he swallowed his throat and said with a smile: "It seems to be true."
Chi Yue snorted lightly and turned his head, "Stupid."
"Okay, okay, don't mention it, let's turn this matter over, let's enjoy the next topic." Pei Heyang leaned in front of him and asked, "After the exam on Wednesday, what do you want to eat?"
Chi Yue was stunned for a moment, "You haven't taken the test yet, and you're just thinking about what to eat? Your heart is wide enough!"
"Hey, didn't you say you have to celebrate after the exam? No matter the score." Pei Heyang was a little anxious, "The 24 hours haven't passed yet, why did you forget?"
Chi Yue put down his teacup, "I haven't forgotten."
Pei Heyang smiled, "It's fine if you don't forget. What do you want to eat?"
"What do you eat and what do you eat?" Chi Yue said.
"Okay, then I'll think about what to cook later." Pei Heyang has already started thinking about the dishes.
Afraid that he would be distracted, Chi Yue thought about it, and then said, "Just get the big set meal of Yinghe and Japanese Food 688, it will save you trouble."
Pei Heyang raised his eyebrows and said, "You can have this."
While chatting, his cell phone rang, and he took it out to see that it was an unfamiliar number, "Hello, who is it?"
The other person didn't know what to say, his face immediately sank, as cold as ice cubes frozen in the refrigerator, "Go to hell!"
Chi Yue asked, "What's wrong?"
Pei Heyang shook his head, "It's okay, you stupid salesman."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone turned on again, and a text message came in, the same number as before.Originally, he wanted to block the blacklist directly, but after reading the content, Pei Heyang's eyes panicked for a moment. He raised his head and asked Chi Yue, "Did someone go to the store to make trouble a few days ago?"
Chi Yue thought about it, and answered, "No, what's going on?"
"Pei Sihai's little daughter-in-law..." Pei Heyang frowned, realizing the name he had spoken, and explained, "Pei Sihai is my biological father. He is a new wife and has a son. The egg hurts, looking for a pump."
A few days ago, a group of children paid for the money suddenly appeared in Chi Yue's mind, and he asked, "Do you have a picture of him?"
Pei Heyang shook his head, and then said: "I remember his name on Weibo, let me see if there are any photos on it."
He opened the app, entered a few words, and found the Weibo that he wanted to see. There were also a few selfies in this person's album, "Ugly and stupid."
Chi Yue tilted his body to look, and the young and clean man in the photo was the boy who wanted to pay in cash yesterday, but was short of five yuan, "He came to the store a few days ago."
Pei Heyang's eyes were full of doubts, "What happened to you?"
"What can he do to me with his small body?" Chi Yue was puzzled, but he still explained the incident yesterday in detail from beginning to end, and at the end, he added, "But when he finally asked me why I saved that boy ,I did not understand."
Pei Heyang raised his eyelids, "What do you mean?"
"I remember that I rescued a long-haired one..." Chi Yue said here, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Could it be a boy with a wig?"
"It's not right." Pei Heyang slowly shook his head and said, "This idiot has been honest for more than a year. Why did he start looking for trouble recently and even ran to your noodle shop? There must be something wrong."
"Does this kid you... know have any grudge against you?" Chi Yue asked, "He knows you know me? Or is he working in a noodle restaurant?"
Pei Heyang was stunned, his lips were a little dry, and he stuck out his tongue and licked it, "Well...he...knows that I have played with you, but he probably doesn't know that I work in a noodle restaurant. sky."
"But there were a lot of people who came to eat before, and recognized you." Chi Yue thought about it, and then said, "There must be some interest disputes or emotional hatred between you, so he will always trouble you, right? However, a kid like him, fourteen or five years old? What trouble can he cause you?"
Pei Heyang sneered and said, "He was born outside by Pei Sihai, he is a little older than my brother, he has entangled interests, he just wants to inherit the family property."
Chi Yue frowned. He didn't like to judge this kind of family matter.
"It's hard for them mother and son, they want to mess with me endlessly." Pei Heyang suddenly let go of his shoulders and leaned back in the chair, "He troubles me, he just keeps disgusting me, he is not the only one, he will also take a A large group of people came to disgust me."
Chi Yue said: "Last time he came with a group of people, but it seems that those people don't like him very much."
"That's what he asked for." Pei Heyang didn't even realize how cruel he said.
Chi Yue got up and went to the kitchen. When he came out, he held a teapot and a cup in his hand, "Okay, don't think too much about it, take care of your brother first, and wait and see how other things change."
With that said, he poured a cup of tea, pushed it in front of Pei Heyang, and raised his chin to signal him to have a taste.
Pei Heyang didn't say anything, he raised his teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
Chi Yue smiled, "So those rumors are true?"
"What rumor?" Pei Heyang took the teapot and poured himself another cup, "Is this the delicious tea I said last time?"
"Yes." Chi Yue replied, "The rumors say that you have a bad temper."
Pei Heyang lowered his eyes and suddenly smiled, "Do you believe it?"
Chi Yue saw that he finished pouring tea, took the teapot, filled his cup with tea, and put the teapot back on the table. After this series of actions, he calmed down a little.Afterwards, he raised his tea cup, touched Pei Heyang's cup, and said, "I only believe what you say."
After speaking, he raised his head and drank it up.
Such a seemingly naive, but very practical behavior, Pei Heyang immediately exploded. He held the cup tightly with his hands, endured it for a few seconds, drank it in one last gulp, put down the cup, and said: "In the afternoon, accompany me to the hospital , look at my brother?"
Chi Yue nodded, "Okay, then go out and buy some fruit later? What does your brother like to eat?"
"Apple, he doesn't eat much of other fruits." After Pei Heyang finished speaking, he asked subconsciously, "What about you?"
"Me?" Chi Yue said, "I don't eat durian, I love cherries the most."
Pei Heyang, who loves durian the most, gave an 'ah', hesitated, and asked, "If there are people around who eat it, can you do it?"
Chi Yue put his arms around his chest, "Do you like to eat?"
Pei Heyang nodded, "Favorite."
"Oh." Chi Yue thought about it, and when he was about to speak, Pei Heyang interjected directly, "It's okay, it's okay, if you can't take it, then I won't eat it from now on."
An ordinary sentence, but instantly overturned the peace in the eyes of the two of them.
"I'm going to write the set of questions first." Chi Yue stood up, "You sit down and call me when you leave later."
Then, he walked into the bedroom and left Pei Heyang alone in the living room.
Five minutes later, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
Chi Yue looked sideways, "Come in."
Pei Heyang pushed open the door, poked his head out, and asked, "Can you... tutor me in math?"
Chi Yue stared at him for a while, and finally looked away before staring at Mao, raised his finger and pointed outside, "Bring a chair in."
Pei Heyang smiled and ran over to get the chair, and when he entered the room again, he felt as if he had passed away.He sat down next to Chi Yue, put his arm on the edge of the table, and asked, "Huh? Are you reading English? How about I supplement your English first?"
Although he mentioned this before, Chi Yue never took it seriously and always thought it was a joke.
But unexpectedly, Pei Heyang took the test paper and read it carefully. After reading the two selected questions, he frowned, "Can't remember the words or the grammar points?"
Ever since he was a child, Chi Yue has never felt what it means to be "weak" in his studies. Of course, except for English, he felt a little twisted when he heard Pei Heyang ask this question, but he still told the truth, "I can't even remember." live."
Pei Heyang was stunned for a moment, and it was totally unexpected to hear Chi Yue's honest resignation, and comforted him, "It's okay, there are tricks in learning English."
"What's the trick?" Chi Yue was curious. If there was a trick, he had to be able to do it. Then he spent a lot of time in the past eighteen years, "Tell me."
Pei Heyang leaned over and said, "Look at memorizing words, the brain actually has memory traces. English words are not made by memorizing the alphabetical order by rote, but to be familiar with the pronunciation, and then memorize it, which is more efficient."
As he spoke, he pointed to the word in the first practice question and said, "For example, this affectionate, if you can pronounce this word, the spelling is definitely not a problem."
Chi Yue followed the reading method he taught, and had to say that Pei Heyang's voice and intonation were quite true.
"Reading it once is not enough. You can read the word ten times in a low voice by yourself. After reading it, you can think about how to spell the word in your head." Pei Heyang looked serious, and he didn't even mean to gossip. Use root affixes to remember, all..."
Chi Yue suddenly interjected, "What does this word mean? Teacher Pei?"
Pei Heyang withdrew his hand that was pressing on the paper, put half of his body on the desk, and lay across between Chi Yue and the table in an arrogant posture.With affectionate eyes, he asked, "Student Chi, do you want to know?"
Chi Yue looked down and landed on the prominent Adam's apple on his neck, lowered his eyes and smiled, "I'm a scumbag, I don't understand."
Pei Heyang suppressed a smile and said, "Did you hear a story when you were young?"
Chi Yue turned his head and shrugged his shoulders, "The stories I heard when I was young were all about Three Kingdoms and Water Margin."
"I'm talking about a foreign story." Pei Heyang said, "It's called Pinocchio."
"Pinocchio whose nose grows longer when lying?" Chi Yue asked knowingly.
Pei Heyang nodded, "A child can be taught."
Chi Yue raised his head and met his gaze, "I still... quite hate you."
