Over the mountain is the sea

Chapter 25 A Thorn in the Heart ([-])

Yi Nan rushed towards the apartment with a net bag of fresh vegetables that she had just bought from the supermarket.Passing by the gate of the community, she caught a glimpse of the newsstand in the corner that was still open. In the past, when she came home, she could basically only see a dark, square silhouette.The top of the newsstand was lit with yellow lights, which looked extraordinarily warm in the early winter night. Yinan's footsteps froze for a moment, and she couldn't help turning over to pick out a few casual magazines. Tonight, she no longer needed the profound and incomprehensible meditation. For reading, she wants to relax completely.

Arriving downstairs in the apartment, Yi Nan stood still in front of the electronic door, and was about to enter the password when someone patted her shoulder suddenly. She was startled, but she didn't dare to look back. His hands froze.

Meng Shaoyu's voice immediately rang in his ears, "Hey, I don't seem to have performed the body-holding technique."

When Yi Nan heard that it was him, he breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed his body, quickly unlocked it and walked in, while slowly saying to Meng Shaoyu who followed: "I heard a story when I was young."

When they reached the elevator, Meng Shaoyu pressed the up button and waited for the elevator to come down.He asked with interest: "What is it?"

"A man was walking on the prairie when something caught his shoulder suddenly. He turned his head and met a pair of wolf eyes. Seeing him turn his face, the wolf bit his neck, blood gushing out... After that , he becomes a meal for wolves."

Meng Shaoyu shook his head, "It's cruel!" However, his shining eyes blinked a few times, and then narrowed a little, "You think I'm a wolf?"

Yi Nan squinted at him, "Aren't you?"

The elevator came down, the door opened, and they walked in.

Meng Shaoyu shrugged, "You can say whatever you want, anyway, in your eyes, I'm not a good person." He glanced down at the magazine in her hand, pulled it over immediately, flipped through it, scanned a few pages, and glanced at it. She, "Want to travel? Remember to call me!"

Yi Nan stretched out his hand to ask him if he wanted to come back, frowned, and simply stuffed the jacket bag in his hand to him, clapped his hands and said, "Take it together, and return it to me at the door."

Meng Shaoyu stared at her, of course he understood her intentions, he laughed, but said: "It's an honor!"

He picked up the whole bag with one hand, examined it through the translucent plastic bag for a long time, and asked Yi Nan with a salivating face, "Is this our dinner today?"

Yi Nan had already come out of the elevator and walked towards her apartment, opened the door, turned around and took the bag and book from Meng Shaoyu, and corrected him: "It's not 'us', it's 'me'."

Meng Shaoyu arrived at the door of her house and pestered her facelessly, "Yao Yinan, don't be so stingy! It's rare that everyone gets off work so early today, it's so lively to eat together!"

"It's still early? It's already seven o'clock." Yi Nan said with a tense face, "Fortunately, you are not my boss."

The door was held against him by his body, and couldn't be closed. Yi Nan had no choice but to pause, and suddenly felt that eating with more than one person might not be a bad thing, so he changed his mind, raised his face and asked, "Are you okay?"

Meng Shaoyu immediately replied: "No disease! No disease! I just had a physical examination last month...do you want me to bring you the medical examination report for your review?"

"No. You go back first, and I'll call you after cooking."

"Good!" Meng Shaoyu handed over the battlefield cheerfully, "That's refreshing!"

Yi Nan cooks at home very few times. As long as she wants, her three meals a day and even her accommodation can be settled in the hotel.It's just that she was troubled by "phantoms" twice in a row, which made her doubt her own mental state. She needed to change and relax completely, so she didn't want to stay in the hotel anymore. Even when she returned home, she was just facing boredom alone. the four walls.

In the past at home, grandma was good at cooking. She wanted to train Yinan to be a good wife and mother, so she taught her how to cook, cook and make soup very early.But that was really too long ago. With his sparse memory, Yi Nan bought the materials back and planned to suffer alone. Since someone is willing to be a guinea pig, it would be better.

As soon as the rice was put on the pot and the vegetables were washed, the doorbell rang impatiently. She knew who it was without guessing. She wiped her wet hands and ran to open the door. As Meng Shaoyu said, it is indeed too lonely to be alone.

He opened the door, but saw Meng Shaoyu stepping in with a fresh face and a smile. He seemed to have taken a shower, and even his clothes were newly changed.

"How's it going?" he asked bluntly.

"It's just started, and we have to wait!" Yi Nan closed the door behind him, and ran into the kitchen to work again.

He followed him in, and the rice was steaming on the stove. He yelled unconsciously, "Huh? How do you use a pressure cooker to cook rice? Let me tell you, I saw a kind of rice cooker in the mall. It's not big, it's fully automatic. It works very well. Does it look like..." He gestured with his hand, regardless of whether Yi Nan saw it or not, he continued: "It's a bit like a vacuum cleaner."

Yi Nan took all the washed vegetables into the basket and said with a smile, "That's not bad, it can cook and vacuum at the same time."

"I'm not joking with you, really." He raised his hand and snapped his fingers, "I'll buy one another day, anyway, just the two of you, buy the smallest size that can cook for two. .” He said more and more seriously.

Yi Nan pushed him away rudely, and took the salt shaker from the stove on the right, "Come on, I'm not going to treat you to dinner for a long time."

"Don't act like you don't want to see me. In the worst case, I will pay you for meals on a monthly basis."

"I don't want to be your mother."

Meng Shaoyu's eyes widened, "You want to kill me wrongly?! Just like you, to be someone's old mother? No matter what, you have to be Mrs. Ru! Haha."

He smiled happily, but to his surprise, Yi Nan's face turned pale for a while, she lost her grip on the salt spoon she was holding, and the fine salt spilled all over the floor. Gather the grains of salt together without saying a word.

Meng Shaoyu also knelt down to help her. Seeing that she looked a little strange, he thought that he was joking too much.

Yi Nan lowered his head and was busy working, while slowly saying: "You should stay outside."

When Meng Shaoyu heard that her voice was changing, he felt uneasy, and he obediently retreated without daring to refute anything.

A good mood takes hard work to pay off, but a small blow can destroy it.

Yi Nan stared blankly at the scattered salt grains on the ground, lost interest in the moment, but the people who were waiting for dinner were still outside, and she had no reason to drive them away for an inexplicable reason.

Sighing, she got up and continued, if the chef's mood would be integrated into the meal and tasted by the diners, she could only feel sorry.
