Half-baked

53
The situation got out of control and developed in a weird direction.
It seems that there is no brain block here, and Xu definitely knows how to turn the situation around to harmony and stability.

He raised his eyes and carefully observed the expressionless person behind him.
The light around is bright. In the past, her hair was always hanging down naturally, but today, her hair is tied up to reveal her forehead without any slicked back hair, which makes her facial features more three-dimensional, with a sense of refinement and sharpness going hand in hand.
His eyes were dark, revealing a cold and carefree feeling.

The tail of the car's eye is casually raised without an arc, and the cold voice is immersed in the chilly spring breeze, removing a bit of the coldness.
"Stingy man?"
The car goes back and forth again.

Xu Futian was very scared and asked, "What's going on? Look around. There's no closet. I only have one suspender nightgown on. I don't even need to rent or buy that one."

Seeing his eyebrows twitching, he felt that if he continued to be in this situation, the situation would definitely fall to the side behind him, or maybe to Xu Fu's side. The two of them were on the verge of a fight, and in the end, it was a disaster.

"If you want to go to work, you can go late." The man decided to separate the two cars and let Xu Fu live with him, so he could only pull the one in the back. It happened that the car driver was next to him, so the man forcefully pushed the one in the back to the driver's seat.

After sending the girl to the car, he looked at Xu Fu with regret and said, "If you want to go back, throw that nightgown into the trash can."
"That nightgown is quite expensive," Xu Fu said in a casual tone, raising her voice on purpose so that the driver could hear it. "It's more than 2,000 yuan, and I haven't rented it out for the past month."

This looks like a meal. "More than two thousand?"
Xu Fu smiled and said, "Perch."
This is serious, "We need to transfer the money."

Xu Fu rolled her eyes and said, "Why do you want to ask for money? You can't give me gifts anyway." At this moment, Xu Fu's voice was still normal. In the next sentence, she raised her voice and said, "This man looks glamorous, but he is actually very stingy behind the scenes. You should keep your eyes open and don't be seduced by male beauty. Do you know?"

Inexplicably, Xu Fu became the careless little boyfriend who didn't care about her.
It's hard to bear to see this, and Fu said, "When two people are in love, they have to be very nice to each other and very generous."

"Why do you want to scold the car owner? Why go to the maintenance car?" Xu Fu glared at him angrily.
"..." He looked a little confused, "Then why are you going?"
"Of course, let's go and let him spend more money on the car." Xu Fu said with anticipation, "It would be best if we could send him a car tomorrow, and then send him a car the day after tomorrow, and then buy all the hospitals the day after tomorrow, and let him be the dean."

"..."

It seemed that Xu had no idea what to do with Xu Fu, so he followed suit and pushed Xu Fu back to the mysterious badger.
After seeing Xu Fu off, this man didn't seem to be completely relaxed. After all, the car was small and there was still a lot of people waiting to be rented, who were dubbed "stingy".

This looks like a mysterious badger that has to bite the bullet and sit on it.
Unexpectedly, the man behind the scenes was very kind. He didn't talk to me and was normal. He asked me, "Are you going back to the hospital?"
"Yeah." After nodding, he realized that Xu was right, "How did you know that you had to go back to the hospital?"

"It depends on the duty roster."
"Have you seen it anywhere?"
The man behind him turned the steering wheel, his profile was sharp, and he only uttered three words: "Chi Jingting."

As a VIP patient, Chi Jingting asked Dr. Zhong to have no duty schedule, and it seemed so easy and nothing happened.

He looked away and simply said "hmm" in response.

The residential complex where I rent is very close to the hospital, and it only takes five minutes to walk there. However, driving around in twists and turns and waiting for two red lights would take much longer than five minutes.

There was no break in the silence, and then a sentence suddenly popped up from the bottom: "Why is the taxi fare 1,500 yuan a month? How did it become 2,000 yuan?"
"what?"
"Rent. My friend Fu, how much is the price compared to the nightgown?"

This guy didn't seem to have any idea of ​​how to ask, how do you know it was originally rented out?
Because at the beginning, this house was sold, but the tenant did not sign the rental contract.

The first thing I saw was the day when the watch was rented.
It was difficult to find time to see it. After receiving the internship gift from the car that day, when I saw Chen Tong's car driving out of the hospital, I hurriedly said, "If you want to go back to school, you must go to the nearby community to look for a condom first."

"Which neighborhood?"
There is no name for the community when I look at the newspaper.
"How many buildings?"
This looked at Nana and said, "Friend Fu, there are a lot of rental information posted downstairs. I'm going to try my luck."

I rarely find such a thing without any preparation or battle. To be honest, I don't have much time to go to the hospital, so I don't have time to find the source of the software.
In addition, Jingyue reminded me that it is more reliable to see the place in person, as the rental software does not have any photos, and most of them are online pictures.

Then he glanced at the place where he was renting and said, "I'm going to send it over."
There was silence for a moment. "Thank you."
The corners of his mouth were raised without any warmth or smile.

Then go to the community.
The man parked his car in the white-lined no-parking area on the side of the road in the community. When Chen Tong noticed that the car was turned off, he didn't move. What did he think of this? He felt a little embarrassed and said, "I don't need you to accompany me to go and see who's going on. You can do it by yourself."

Then the next question was “Are you sure?”
He looked back and said, "I don't see if there's anything particularly troublesome or not."
"Okay," the man behind responded straightforwardly, "Let's go."

After saying thank you, he unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.

I felt like a headless fly wandering around the neighborhood.
There are old-style residential areas near the hospital, without walls and almost no security. The community consists of steep row houses, with five floors in total. Most of the upper floors are rented out for commercial use, the fifth floor is for sale, and the second and fourth floors are rented out.
I went to several rental houses, but none of them satisfied me.

Seeing the renter shaking his head, Fu couldn't help laughing and said, "Little girl, I don't have a psychological price here. To be honest, in our community, at this price, we can only rent it like this. It's the same for other renters."
"I need to think about it again." Look at Fu.

The renter walked around the community with his head lowered dejectedly.
There was no contempt in his expression when he looked at me, and there was no implied meaning in his words when he heard them.
——Don’t choose if you don’t have money.

He looked calm and peaceful, and I thought, it's a good thing that I didn't go abroad to study.
It must be much harder to study abroad than it is now. My grades are not very good, and my English score is not very high, but my oral English is very average. After listening to the English of the teacher, I don't feel like I'm listening to foreigners.

In terms of grades, I can catch up with Che, and I can also work hard to get into the same school as Che.
But it seems that no matter how hard Manager Xu tries, he can only look up at the cars.

After walking a few steps forward, suddenly, a person appeared in my sight and blocked my way.

Zu looked up, "Shang...didn't he leave?"
"I haven't left." The man behind guessed from the look on his face, "If you haven't found it, then you're free and have nothing to do."
This looks down.
"Have dinner first, then look for it after dinner."

The view is low and there is a small gap. The renter is alone and has no shadow. Go to a familiar place with no shadow to accompany you.

Seeing this refusal, no words were swallowed back into the throat, and Zufu said, "Please treat me to dinner."
"Then let's go to the cabin."
"?"
The man behind him said with a sigh, "You'll probably be a gigolo for the rest of your life."
"..."

There are no restaurants nearby, and I can see no Korean food.
The two of them walked in casually, and finally, under the pressure of the latter's "either pay or jump off the top floor of the hospital", they took out their mobile phones to pay but did not stop.

I was too impatient to do anything, so the next day, after get off work, I decided to try my luck in the nearby community. As soon as I left the hospital, I paused.
The man behind him put out the cigarette in his hand and said, "Go find it."
After hesitating for a while, he decided to get on the car.

This time I didn't drive, I stayed with her the whole time. It was amazing. I followed her upstairs and found that this room was unexpectedly not very good. Although it had a different decoration style and layout, the air was fresh and there was no strange smell. It was clean, tidy, warm and comfortable.

The most important thing is that the rental price is much lower than the price I expected.
"Miss, please go to the hospital and give me an answer within three days. In the next three days, if someone likes this content, you can rent it out. And you must be sure that it can be rented out within a week."

This is what Fu said: "We can sign the contract now."

There was no one behind him laughing.
There was no gap when I went east to print the contract. I asked the driver, "What were you laughing at just now?"
"Rent a car, maybe bargain?" The man behind raised his eyebrows, "Maybe ask how the water and electricity bills are calculated?"

This made him speechless. He had little social experience and had never thought about it that much. "Then... do you want to ask about the car later?"

"You're going to sign the contract, why ask?" Fu said, "Since you've got this plan, just sign it. Remember, turn left when you go out of the building, and walk 200 meters ahead. There's a police station across the street. If you have any problem, go to the police station, understand?"
I didn't expect that the car understood this kid so clearly. The car was in front of me and stopped for several seconds.
Zufu said, "I know."

After a while, Chudong came over with the contract.
It seems that there is no time to sign the contract, so the guy behind is just standing by the rental counter.

Chu Dong jokingly asked, "Are the young couple having a quarrel?"

Because when renting it out, it depends on whether it is rented out to one person or not.
I guess because of this, when I saw the man and the woman in the car when they went out, I thought they were a young couple who had a quarrel and moved out in anger.
This guy forced a smile and said, "We need two lovers."

After the wedding, the peripheral vision is small, and the expressionless figure behind her is too beautiful.

The man pretended not to see it, handed over the contract and the key, put them in his bag, and then left the rental house.
Going downstairs, the man behind me said without any politeness: "Wolf-hearted and dog-hearted."
This seems to be unclear, "... do you want it?"

"I want to accompany you to find out, what about you? How can I repay you?" He tilted his head and bumped into the small eyes of the old man, with a deep gaze, and said word by word, "You know what you hate to hear the most, but you insist on saying those words."
"Do you have to have a heart without any wounds or holes in it to be happy?"

"..."
-
In fact, these years, I have lived a fulfilling life every day, and I rarely reminisce about the past.
But after encountering this, there seems to be a forgotten place deep in my brain, that place is surging, pulling me back to the past.

But I realized later that it had nothing to do with the place, and I remembered it very clearly.

But I remember the latter part very clearly.
I even remember the rental price.

Thinking that after all, the car didn't accompany her when she rented it, if Xu replied to the car, the car would probably turn the tables on her, which made Fu feel so ungrateful.
So, it seems that there is no problem for taxis to increase in price every year, and there is no problem for Dong Fu to tell her that the monthly rental price will increase by 3,000 yuan next year, and there is no problem for Dong Fu to tell her.

"Price increase?" The man behind the door didn't seem to be saying anything serious, and laughed it off. His words were obviously full of contempt and ridicule, as if to say - "How dare you not have a car?"
Maybe it's because he has such a cold and arrogant aura, so he looks down on everyone he sees.

It seems that "there are still several months before the expiration of the contract, and there is not enough time to find a new job."

While we were talking, the car had already entered the hospital's parking lot.
The two men unbuckled their seat belts and got out of the car one after another.

After getting off the bus, I looked at Fu and asked, "Do you want to buy a drink?"
Then a calm voice said, "Do you want to buy a drink?"

After two seconds of silence, I realized that what he said was not true. I apologized and said that I didn't drink milk tea or coffee anymore, but only boiled water. I went to a milk tea shop outside, but they didn't buy any for me. Maybe after we parted, my taste changed.

I went to that cafe to have a drink. I tilted my head and asked the guy behind me, "What would you like to drink?"
"Hot Americano." The man behind took out his phone, scanned the code to pay, and said casually, "Remember, Chi Jingting likes iced Americano, and Che likes hot Americano."

After hearing this, it seems that all my doubts have been cleared up and my taste in cars has not changed.
Did Che Fu come to buy a drink? Did she buy one for Chi Jingting? Maybe she bought one for Che herself.

After about two minutes, the waiter handed over the packaged drinks in two separate paper bags.
It seems that this will happen next, and the next one will happen next.

After purchasing, the drivers headed towards the inpatient department.
Entering the elevator, I saw my phone vibrating. I lowered my head to check the message. I didn't have the extra hands to press the button. Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of someone behind me pressing the elevator button. He said softly, "Press it for me, 12th floor."

There is no message from Xu Fu.
Xu Fu left [When will the two of them get back together? ]
This is a big deal [nothing to do. 】
Xu Fu left [Why do you need to go to the hospital? Why do you just get in the car and walk there? Can you take your work seriously when you are going to see a doctor? Or would you skip work to go to a man?]

Look at this [I have to go to work at the hospital, there is no need to skip work! 】
I was afraid that Xu Fu didn't have a wild imagination and didn't say anything outrageous. I'll see what Fu Ming explained. [Later, a friend of mine was hospitalized, and I happened to be responsible, so I drove to the hospital to visit my friend. ]

After the message was sent, the elevator reached the floor and made a "ding" sound.
I took the time to look at the floor and found that I was already on the 12th floor, so I subconsciously walked out.
After walking a few steps, I heard footsteps behind me.

The man looked away from his phone and moved his eyes to the person behind him who had just come out of the elevator. He looked a little confused and asked, "Are we going up to the eighth floor to see Chi Jingting?"

"Oh, I forgot." The man behind her didn't look strange at all, and said in a leisurely tone, "If I remember correctly, the office is on the 12th floor, right? It's a good opportunity to go to the office and have a seat."

"..." This seemed to be understood, "Is there anything to sit on in the office?"

"Do you really need Fu to be more straightforward?"
"Ok?"

The tip of his eyebrow was slightly raised, and he bent down slightly to level his eyes with the others, and then he said slowly, "First come, first served. No one in the department knew that Xu Ruqing was catching up, but I felt it necessary to let my colleagues know, otherwise--"
He paused deliberately, and spoke in a low voice with a lingering smile, drawing out the last five words.

"Suitor No. 1."
