Chapter 33 An eyesore
1448 Words
After leaving school, Zhuang Ziang went to the snack street to find food and saw a small stall selling fried potatoes from a distance.
This was the first thing he ate on the first day he met Su Yudie.
"Auntie, give me a portion of potatoes, with more chili." Zhuang Ziang stepped forward a few steps.
Auntie was busy with her hands, smiled and nodded, and asked casually: "Where is the girl who was with you last time?"
Zhuang Ziang asked in surprise: "Auntie, do you know Little Butterfly?"
Auntie thought for a while and said: "She used to come to buy potatoes often, always chattering a lot, she is a very cute girl, I was impressed by her."
"When did you first meet her?"
"Three months ago!"
Zhuang Ziang stopped there and didn't ask any more questions.
Otherwise, it would be easy for Auntie to misunderstand and think that he was a pervert with bad intentions.
While eating perverted spicy fried potatoes and holding a glass of iced Coke, Zhuang Ziang ran into two acquaintances head-on.
Lin Mushi and Xie Wenyong
"Zhuang Ziang, I'm a little nervous about the exam tomorrow, so I asked Xie Wenyong to accompany me to eat barbecue. There's nothing between us." Lin Mushi spoke first.
Zhuang Ziang was confused: "You guys eat your own food, why explain to me?"
Lin Mushi frowned: "I don't know what you've been busy with recently, and you don't eat with me. It just so happens that Xie Wenyong is free. You don't mind, right?"
"I don't mind. It's normal for classmates to eat together!" Zhuang Ziang smiled.
Lin Mushi gritted her teeth in anger, and her face turned red.
Zhuang Ziang, you're fooling around with other girls every day.
We agreed to watch a movie together, but you forgot about it.
"Zhuang Ziang, how about eating together?" Xie Wenyong asked tentatively.
After all, Zhuang Ziang spoke for him in the class meeting yesterday, and he was embarrassed to be aggressive again.
After careful reflection, he had done a lot of wrong things before.
"Okay, I have nothing to do when I go back anyway." Zhuang Ziang agreed.
Xie Wenyong: "..."
I was just being polite, you really don't consider yourself an outsider.
He wanted to slap himself twice, what nonsense was he asking?
It took a lot of effort to get Lin Mushi, and now he has to spend more money to get a light bulb, which is really looking for trouble.
The barbecue restaurant they came to was the one that Zhuang Ziang and Su Yudie came to last time.
Zhuang Ziang saw the beer in the display cabinet and couldn't help but smile.
The barbecue was self-service, and Xie Wenyong started to work diligently as soon as he sat down, brushing oil, grilling meat, and making dipping sauces.
Lin Mushi, as a princess who was high above, didn't know how to work at all, just waited to enjoy the food.
Zhuang Ziang was too lazy to do it, like a big boss, stabbing potatoes with bamboo sticks.
"Can you stop eating potatoes? Isn't this a waste of my money?" Xie Wenyong glared at him.
The self-service barbecue was charged per person, and Zhuang Ziang filled his stomach with potatoes, which was not cost-effective.
Zhuang Ziang didn't care about that and continued to eat with relish.
Lin Mushi's eyes were always on Zhuang Ziang.
I always felt that there was a shadow behind his pretentious and cool attitude.
He has been absent from class too frequently recently.
After the first plate of food was baked, Xie Wenyong consciously began to peel shrimps for Lin Mushi.
Zhuang Ziang smiled and said, "You are good at peeling shrimps, so help me peel two!"
"You can't peel them yourself?" Xie Wenyong muttered.
"I'm too lazy to wash my hands, so just be a good person and peel them together!" Zhuang Ziang said loudly.
Xie Wenyong was so angry that he gasped. You are a good person, and your whole family is good people.
Lin Mushi laughed.
It was quite funny to see Xie Wenyong being embarrassed in front of Zhuang Ziang.
"Zhuang Ziang, the girl who looked for you outside the classroom that day, was she your girlfriend?"
Lin Mushi hesitated for a long time before asking this question.
Zhuang Ziang shook his head: "No, I just met her last week."
Lin Mushi immediately asked: "Which class is she from?"
Zhuang Ziang said bluntly: "To be honest, I don't know either. She said she was from Class 23."
As we all know, there are only 22 classes in the whole grade.
So this must be a lie.
"It doesn't make sense. If there is such a beautiful girl in our grade, how could no one know her?" Xie Wenyong joined the topic.
Lin Mushi said with a hint of sourness: "So beautiful, how beautiful is she?"
Xie Wenyong quickly admitted: "Of course, you are still a little inferior to Mushi."
Zhuang Ziang has been repeatedly pondering their doubts for several days.
There is always a layer of mystery about the little butterfly.
During the meal, Lin Mushi spent most of the time chatting with Zhuang Ziang.
Zhuang Ziang was also very generous and shared some test-taking skills with them.
As for Xie Wenyong, he was like a waiter the whole time, busy with the barbecue, and didn't eat a few pieces himself.
After brewing for a long time, he lowered his posture and humbly asked Zhuang Ziang for advice. "What's your secret to being a class monitor? Why do people obey you but not me?"
People who take favors from others are grateful, and they are soft-hearted. Since the two of them didn't have any major conflicts, Zhuang Ziang smiled lightly and told them his secret.
"The class monitor serves the whole class, not for you to put on airs."
"As long as you are sincere and dedicated to the class, the teachers and classmates can feel it."
"Come on, you will be a good class monitor."
...
After listening, Xie Wenyong looked ashamed and thought about something.
Zhuang Ziang's mind and pattern are indeed much better than his.
It's impossible not to accept it.
"I'm full. I can't eat too much at night, otherwise I'll get fat." Lin Mushi put down her chopsticks.
"I'm almost done too, after all, I ate some potatoes." Zhuang Ziang said.
"What? You all don't eat anymore, I'm just starting!" Xie Wenyong was anxious.
Lin Mushi said amiably: "Then you stay here and eat for a while, I will leave with Zhuang Ziang first."
Zhuang Ziang suppressed his smile: "Xie Wenyong, thank you for your treat, I will leave first."
The two stood up together and walked out of the barbecue restaurant side by side.
Xie Wenyong was stunned in his seat, and the chicken wings in his mouth were no longer fragrant.
The snow fluttered, the north wind whistled, and the world was vast...
"Mushi, you take a taxi!" Zhuang Ziang stood on the side of the road, trying to help Lin Mushi stop a taxi.
"Wait, Zhuang Ziang, I have something to tell you." Lin Mushi bit her red lips.
Zhuang Ziang turned around and looked at the school beauty in front of him quietly.
Lin Mushi is very beautiful. Except for a little princess disease, she is also a very cute girl.
It's just because of her family that she always has a noble and elegant temperament, which makes Zhuang Ziang unconsciously feel distant in his heart.
Or, getting along with Lin Mushi, always feels a little inferior.
Su Yudie is different, beautiful, cute and down-to-earth.
Being with her, I can always forget all my troubles in an instant.
Lin Mushi thought for a long time before she mustered up the courage to say: "Zhuang Ziang, are you in trouble?"
Zhuang Ziang's recent series of abnormal behaviors made her deeply worried.
She wanted to lend a helping hand to Zhuang Ziang, but in order not to hurt the boy's self-esteem, she tried to speak tactfully.
"Mushi, thank you, I'm fine, don't worry." Zhuang Ziang forced a smile.
"You obviously have something to do, aren't we good friends? Why do you hide it from me?" Lin Mushi asked angrily.
Compared with the carefree Li Huangxuan, Lin Mushi, as a girl, is much more delicate and sensitive.
She vaguely felt that Zhuang Ziang had encountered a big trouble.
She even speculated whether it was related to the mysterious girl.
"Zhuang Ziang, tell me honestly, are you in love?"
"No." Zhuang Ziang immediately denied it, and hesitated for a long time before adding another sentence.
"But I seem to really like her."
