Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 155 This meal is her treat
This rare day off was spent in a daze. I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can only continue integrating my skills tomorrow night.

Although Xia Shou knew that frequent use of [Self-Destruction] would leave hidden dangers, he had to admit that it was really cool to use Self-Destruction to perform synthesis skills. It was just like constantly brushing equipment attributes in the game. There was a sense of anticipation of forcibly brushing the attributes of an equipment from the "lowest level" to the "highest level".

Moreover, the fusion of skills this time is indeed important, because all the blood-related skills have been absorbed. Under normal circumstances, he has no skills to directly fight the enemy except for the expensive [Mirror Magic]. He must combine a skill that can be used in combat.

"You came back so late."

When Xia Shougang got off the car in front of the museum, he saw Su Weiyu leaning against the gate pillar with her hands behind her back waiting for him.

"I'm exhausted after reading all day! Let's go to my house for dinner."

Su Weiyu ran up with a smile on her face and took Xia Shou's hand: "I just heard in the office that the minister has assigned you to be the person in charge of my family."

Su Weiyu also called Shangguan Yan the minister, and seemed to consider herself as a member of the three departments.

Xia Shou was slightly surprised: "I haven't heard of it yet. I thought I still had to apply for it!"

“It seems that Brother Bai said that you knew Su Yue and mentioned it to the minister, so she just arranged it casually.

In fact, the task of the person in charge is just to make regular follow-up visits. Many operators are responsible for replaying dozens of families returning to their daily lives, so this is not a popular job.

But it's just right for you, I don't worry about other people either." Su Weiyu said with a smile.

"Wait, should I tell your parents in advance? They don't know I'm coming over. Besides, this is the first time I meet them. Wouldn't it be awkward for us to sit together for dinner?" Xia Shou said nervously.

Su Weiyu was stunned for a moment. She almost forgot that although it was her home, she had no right to invite guests. As Xia Shou said, it might be a bit too hasty to have dinner together on the first day.

"Ah, I really hadn't thought of that." Su Weiyu scratched her head embarrassedly, "Then forget it today. Wait until you talk to your parents tonight and get acquainted with each other first, and then have dinner together later."

Su Weiyu is very obsessed with eating. To her, anyone who can sit at the same table with her family to eat is a friend recognized by her family. She can't wait to let her father and mother get to know Xia Shou.

This is the first friend she has made in all these years!
"Let's just have a quick bite today. I want to tell you what I heard from 678 today."

Xia Shou nodded: "Let's go eat at a food stall. We are tired of the food in the hotel."

"Great! I also like food stalls!" Su Weiyu said with a thumbs up.

"Today... you seem particularly happy." Xia Shou keenly observed Su Weiyu's excited mood.

"It's OK. There are indeed a few happy things, but there are also a few unhappy things. Let's talk about it while we eat!"

As she spoke, Su Weiyu pulled Xia Shou and jumped onto the bus at the stop in front of the museum.

"I'm most familiar with taking the bus! Since I can't get a taxi, I can only take the bus or subway, so I can recite the subway and bus routes in Jiangbo City by heart. In fact, I wanted to drive myself before, but a driver who won't be noticed is too dangerous." Su Weiyu said.

It was the evening rush hour after get off work, and there were many people on the bus. The two of them squeezed in with great difficulty. Su Weiyu held the boy behind her waist vertically to her chest. Xia Shou held the hanging ring with one hand, and with the other hand he naturally created a small space for Su Weiyu that was not too crowded.

When Su Weiyu was surrounded by Xia Shou, her cheeks turned slightly red, but she quickly returned to normal and asked curiously, "Do most boys do this at this time?"

"It depends on the situation. According to my observation, handsome guys will appear very gentlemanly if they do this, but if it's an ugly guy, it's better not to use your hands to block other people for the female classmates. Just use your body to silently act as a reef to block the flow of people. Otherwise, it will appear greasy." Xia Shou replied, and a bad memory came to his mind.

Xia Shou thought that he was definitely not ugly, but he was indeed not popular with girls.

I remember that when he was in junior high school, he protected the girls he went home from school with like a gentleman, just like he does now. But the final result was beyond his expectations and was a very O. Henry-like ending.

So much so that later on, he basically stopped doing such "self-sentimental" things.

Don’t seek merit, but seek no faults.

But one thing is for sure, if it is Su Weiyu, then there is nothing wrong.

Because Su Weiyu was different from all the girls he had known before.

"Ordinary girls have it so good!" Su Weiyu said, touching her chin, somewhat jealously.

"When I'm riding in a crowded bus, I'm often pushed around, but I really have no way to deal with it, and I can't even find an excuse to get angry... because no one can see me, and they definitely don't want to push me on purpose, and there's no one who wants to take advantage of me."

After saying that, Su Weiyu's eyes lit up: "Oh right! So, Xia Shou, you've been out with girls before? Have you ever dated?"

"I went out with my classmates at a party. I was very popular with the boys, but I didn't seem to be popular with the girls."

The two of them chatted with each other, asking and answering each other in a random manner. In the crowded carriage, the two of them were squeezed into the corner near the window, very close to each other.

As night fell, the street lights that had just been lit up along the street cast spots of light on the car windows. The light and dark projections moved on Su Weiyu's white shirt as the car drove.

Xia Shou could feel Su Weiyu's hot breath on his neck as she looked up and spoke.

He remembered that there was a time before when he had served as a human wall for the girls in his class, just like now.

Although he didn't like the girl, he did feel a sense of ambiguity at that time.

But at this moment, Xia Shou's heart was very calm, so calm that even he was a little surprised.

Obviously, Su Weiyu was prettier than any girl he had ever known before, but he did not feel the slightest bit of emotion inside, only a strange feeling of relaxation.

At this moment, Xia Shou knew the answer to the famous question - Does pure friendship really exist between opposite sexes?
It definitely exists, he himself has proved it.

"We're here! Let's go down quickly! The food in this restaurant is delicious!"

The car door opened with a "hiss" and the two men jumped out of the car with difficulty. The aroma of barbecue and seasoning powder hit them in the face. This was a barbecue street.

Xia Shou randomly found a stall and sat down, watching Su Weiyu jumping around in front of the stalls, stealing the skewers that the chef had just grilled, and then generously put down a hundred yuan.

According to her, small business owners work hard and cannot just take away the money, but large chain stores don’t have to worry about it.

When asked about the underlying reasons, she replied that she intuitively felt it was a better approach.

Xia Shou was deeply impressed by this. If it were him, he might not have given the money. It was not because he wanted to take advantage, but because it was too troublesome.

It is difficult for players who are completely isolated from society and live in a game world full of NPCs to abide by the rules of the game. When they cannot get care from the outside world, it is also difficult for them to care about the outside world.

"Oh, it would be great if there were no monsters in this world. Then you wouldn't have to do this kind of work." Su Weiyu held a large plate of barbecue, placed it in front of Xia Shou, and opened two bottles of beer.

"Are you still drinking?"

"I've only drunk it once. I was so drunk that I almost froze to death. I haven't drunk it since then, but I still want to try it." Su Weiyu said expectantly.

It can be seen that she really wants someone to support her madness.

"Getting drunk will give you a headache, so know when to stop," Xia Shou reminded.

Su Weiyu hooked her finger at her chin and said with a proud smile: "This is called experiencing life! My life will start from now on!"

Xia Shou held his chin and looked at Su Weiyu who was pouring wine seriously, feeling extremely happy.

To be honest, although he and Su Weiyu had eaten together many times before, sometimes Su Weiyu would give him a feeling of being particularly cautious.

It's like being afraid of doing something wrong.

But Xia Shou didn't know what she was worried about.

After returning from Ettingburg this time, the cautious feeling in her disappeared.

"Although I think we don't need to say such polite words anymore, I still want to say it...A Shou, thank you." Su Weiyu smiled and said softly.

She gently placed the plastic cup filled with beer in front of Xia Shou, patted her chest and said, "This meal is also on me!"

Xia Shou put the beer away, raised his hand and shouted to the barbecue stall: "Boss, give me a bottle of Coke!"

"Okay!" the barbecue chef responded.

Su Weiyu was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked: "Why don't you drink?"

"…I think beer tastes terrible."

After saying that, Xia Shou smiled.

Su Weiyu also laughed.
