just like it

After get off work, Luo Yuchuan drove to pick up Jiang Miao at the agreed place.

He originally wanted to pick up Jiang Miao's neighborhood, but it was Jiang Miao who suggested another place.

From the design institute to Jiang Miao's residence and then to Luo Yuchuan's house, he had to go around the boss in a circle, so Jiang Miao found a central place to wait in advance.

"This will save some time," Jiang Miao said.

Luo Yuchuan was secretly moved by the thoughtfulness after the proposal.

Arriving at the appointed place, Luo Yuchuan saw Jiang Miao carrying a small bag from a distance, drinking a cup of milk tea standing by the side of the road.

Before Jiang Miao got into the car and fastened his seat belt, he handed the things in his hand to Luo Yuchuan: "Senior, here you are."

It's a cup of milk tea.

Luo Yuchuan was stunned: "Mine?"

Jiang Miao took a sip of her cup of milk tea, nodded and said, "Well, I just bought it with ice."

The weather was getting hotter, and Luo Yuchuan saw that there were still tiny beads of sweat on the tip of Jiang Miao's nose, and the lips that were biting the straw were rosy with water, and he felt as if he was being pinched by something.

Jiang Miao saw that Luo Yuchuan was stunned and did not move. The hand that was passing the milk tea turned slightly, and pointed the straw inserted in Luo Yuchuan.

"Huh?" Jiang Miao gestured to Luo Yuchuan with her eyes.

Luo Yuchuan looked down, lowered his head, bit the straw and took a sip.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Jiang Miao's eyes sparkled, like a child waiting for praise.

Luo Yuchuan nodded.

Jiang Miao smiled with crooked eyebrows: "Yes, it's icy, sweet, and comfortable."

Is it sweet?Luo Yuchuan sighed inwardly, no one is sweet.

Jiang Miao was holding milk tea in both hands, so Luo Yuchuan leaned forward, stretched out his hand and pulled the seat belt to help Jiang Miao buckle it up. When he raised his eyes, he unconsciously stretched out his finger and scraped the tip of Jiang Miao's nose.

Jiang Miao bit the straw and stared at Luo Yuchuan inexplicably.

Luo Yuchuan twirled his fingers lightly: "I'm sweating."

"Ah." Jiang Miao quickly glanced out of the window, her cheeks flushed slightly.

Luo Yuchuan started the car and turned on the air conditioner. He asked, "Do you want to eat outside, or buy vegetables and cook them yourself?"

"Huh? Can I cook it myself?" Jiang Miao immediately turned her head to look at him with a joyful expression.

However, Luo Yuchuan choked for a moment, and let out a "huh" again.

"I'm not very good at cooking, but I like to cook and eat by myself," Jiang Miao took a sip of milk tea happily, "Senior, can you cook?"

"I know a little."

"Then let's do it ourselves."

"……it is good."

Luo Yuchuan thought about the location of the nearest supermarket, and turned the car into the driveway, feeling very uneasy.

Lifting a rock and shooting himself in the foot probably means the current him.

He just asked casually and didn't think much about it. He really knows how to cook, but he does know a little bit, such as the scrambled eggs with tomatoes that everyone knows, and its sister dish, scrambled eggs with green peppers.

For the rest, the level of cooked dishes can be guaranteed.

Luo Yuchuan comforted himself again, don't be afraid, at least the two sisters can still guarantee that there will be no mistakes.

When they arrived at the supermarket, Luo Yuchuan and Jiang Miao pushed a cart and went straight to the fresh vegetable section.

Jiang Miao's eyes were full of curiosity and anticipation when looking at the fresh vegetables on the shelves that were neat or messed up by customers.

"Senior, shall we make fish-flavored eggplants?" Jiang Miao shook two eggplants, then picked up a bitter melon, "Do you like bitter melon? It would be nice to fry another bitter melon, ah, that asparagus seems to be very fresh too." .”

Luo Yuchuan didn't say anything, and silently put the dishes that Jiang Miao had selected and handed over into the cart basket, but the corners of his eyes looked regretfully at the prepared semi-finished clean vegetables on the refrigerator.

It seems that I can't be lazy anymore, Luo Yuchuan thought, it's okay, when the time comes, I will check a few recipes on my mobile phone and hold my feet temporarily.

After buying the vegetables, Luo Yuchuan picked some more fruits, and when he went to line up at the cashier, Luo Yuchuan took a few boxes of yogurt from the freezer.

I don't expect any good results from the dishes at night, and I have to prepare some desserts after dinner.

Back at Luo Yuchuan's house, Jiang Miao looked at her while changing her shoes.

Luo Yuchuan's house has two bedrooms and one living room. It's not too big. It's more than 90 square meters. It's clean and tidy.

A little deserted, aloof.

However, the pile of fluffy and puffy cushions with lively colors on the sofa seemed to add some other footnotes to this desolation and aloofness.

Jiang Miao reached out to help carry the food, Luo Yuchuan carried it with one hand, and pointed to the study: "The computer is in the study, you go first."

"I'll get you some food first." Jiang Miao followed him to the kitchen.

Luo Yuchuan turned around and stopped him: "No, didn't you say that there are quite a lot of films to be repaired? I can come alone. Oh, there is a power strip on the ground, and the power switch on it needs to be turned on."

Jiang Miao was not very persistent, so she turned around obediently and went into the study.

Luo Yuchuan carried the dishes into the kitchen, took them out one by one and put them on the cooking counter. With his hands on the countertop, he silently recalled Jiang Miao's menu.

Fish-flavored eggplant, fried bitter gourd with salted egg yolk, fried pork liver with hot pepper, soup, oh, the soup is the simplest, tomato and egg soup.

Luo Yuchuan took a deep breath, it's okay, a tall building is built on the ground, step by step, no matter how complicated the dishes are, they have to start with washing the vegetables.

After making up his mind, Luo Yuchuan didn't feel so flustered. He took the fruit and yogurt out of the shopping bag and put them in the refrigerator, thinking that it would take about an hour to prepare the dishes by himself. I don't know if he is used to using his computer, the computer...

Luo Yuchuan's heart skipped a beat, and he rushed into the study in a panic, not caring about putting things away.

"You..." Luo Yuchuan shouted, then became dumb again, staring blankly at Jiang Miao.

Jiang Miao was sitting in front of the computer, holding the mouse in one hand and typing on the keyboard with the other. Hearing the sound, she turned her head and looked at him blankly: "...what's the matter, senior?"

Luo Yuchuan was stunned for a while, looked down at the things in his hands, walked to the computer desk, and handed the things over: "Are you hungry? It will take a while before the meal is ready, so drink some yogurt first."

Jiang Miao suddenly smiled: "Thank you senior."

Jiang Miao took the box of yogurt, inserted a straw, took a sip, smiled at Luo Yuchuan, and said, "Thank you, senior."

Luo Yuchuan was looking away from the computer screen, and responded with a guilty conscience: "Ah, it's not hard. You, take your time."

He turned around and left the study, closing the door behind him.

Standing in front of the cooking table again, Luo Yuchuan slowly let out a few breaths, feeling his flustered heartbeat gradually calm down.

On the computer desktop, he still used the photo with Jiang Miao that he took from the exhibition board of the photography club.

Just now when he went in, Jiang Miao was already editing the film, so I don't know if Jiang Miao saw the desktop clearly.

Luo Yuchuan carefully recalled Jiang Miao's expression just now, and there seemed to be nothing unusual.

He took that group photo with his mobile phone, and it wasn't very clear in the first place, and it was even blurred when it was zoomed in on the desktop, and the icons on the desktop blocked it...

Luo Yuchuan supported the table with his hands and let out a long sigh.

I hope Jiang Miao didn't find anything.

He didn't know how to explain the candid photo to Jiang Miao.

To explain this group photo is bound to explain my own secret thoughts.

He didn't know how to explain it.He's never been good at explaining.

I don't even know if Jiang Miao can accept it.

After a while, Luo Yuchuan turned on the faucet and began to wash the vegetables.

After washing the dishes, Luo Yuchuan washed the rice and put it in the rice cooker. Then he remembered to tie an apron on himself. The apron was a gift from the supermarket. out.

After soaking the rice, tying up the apron, and putting away the cutting board and knife, Luo Yuchuan was not in a hurry to chop the vegetables, but took out his mobile phone and started learning the recipes.

He has a good memory, and he can basically memorize the recipes of several dishes after reading it.So confidently put down the phone and started chopping vegetables.

To be honest, he usually cooks occasionally by himself, but today he didn't know if he wanted to show off and was afraid of disappointing Jiang Miao, so he was inevitably nervous, which made him feel uncomfortable from the beginning of cutting vegetables.

Eggplant cutting hob... what kind of cutting method is the hob?

Take out your phone and check...

Cut the eggplant, cut the bitter melon, this is simple, just slice it, first cut the bitter melon from the middle... Oops, I didn't grasp the angle of the knife, cut one side bigger and the other smaller, a capital C, and a lowercase c... Forget it, don't care about these details.

Luo Yuchuan almost gave up on himself, and then he found that he gave up on himself a little earlier, and when he started cutting the limp pork liver, he was almost driven crazy by this bloody and powdery thing.

What is this cut out?Slices are not slices, dices are not dices, just chop them into pieces, have you heard of pork liver balls?So why didn't I recommend eating chicken wings, a food that doesn't need to be cut and shaped?

After finally chopping all the vegetables, Luo Yuchuan felt that he was already sweating profusely, which was probably more effective than running on the treadmill for half an hour.

Suddenly there was a sound from behind, Luo Yuchuan immediately turned around, Jiang Miao came out of the study with a yogurt box, and was walking towards the kitchen.

"What... what are you doing?" Luo Yuchuan asked warily, holding the door frame to block the kitchen door.

Jiang Miao stopped, and he was taken aback by Luo Yuchuan's state of facing an enemy: "Well, where to throw this?"

He shook the yogurt box in his hand.

"...give it to me." Luo Yuchuan reached out to take it.

"And that one, senior, where is the bathroom?"

Luo Yuchuan pointed in the direction, and Jiang Miao hurriedly turned around.

Luo Yuchuan lowered his head and threw the yogurt box into the trash can, but instead of continuing to cook, he leaned against the kitchen door, waiting for Jiang Miao to come out of the bathroom, and nodded to him: "The dishes will be ready in a while, you can continue to edit the picture." Come on, I'll call you later."

There was no expression on his face, he looked quite serious, Jiang Miao was a little confused, Luo Yuchuan made him feel embarrassed by such a solemn notice.

So he nodded awkwardly, went into the study again, and when he turned around to close the door, he looked at Luo Yuchuan suspiciously.

Luo Yuchuan closed the sliding door of the kitchen, stood in front of the stove, and took a deep breath.

It's almost time to hit the door, come on.

However, the reality taught Luo Yuchuan a serious lesson.

A good memory doesn't improve his logic about cooking.

And the grasp of the heat is experience, and timing with a mobile phone cannot solve the problem.

Facing a pot of burnt pork liver, he hesitated for two seconds before dumping it all into the trash can.

There are two more dishes, let's struggle a little more.

So he reviewed the idiom again, in vain.

Luo Yuchuan didn't understand at all, how the fish-flavored eggplant sauce that was prepared according to the instructions of the recipe would turn out a pot of dark unknown matter, which was completely different from the sample pictures on the Internet.

There is also a plate of bitter gourd... Forget it, Luo Yuchuan dropped the spatula and gave up struggling.

He picked up his phone and clicked on the takeaway app.

Maybe we should choose this way from the beginning, so that we don't have to waste nearly an hour of time and food.

Luo Yuchuan found the nearest stir-fry restaurant and quickly placed an order.

While waiting for the takeaway, Luo Yuchuan couldn't leave the kitchen. He turned on the range hood and smoked a cigarette silently.

The kitchen door was closed and the range hood was humming.

Pretend to be cooking.

Luo Yuchuan looked at the failed works dumped into the trash can, and thought, should I throw them away now, what if the evidence is found later?

Ah, who would be so bored to look at the kitchen trash can.

The more Luo Yuchuan thought about it, the more frustrated he became. Although he was only here to borrow a computer, it was Jiang Miao's first visit to the house after all. What did he do...

At that time, it would have been nice not to talk too much about cooking by myself.

However, Jiang Miao looked so happy when she was happy.

Luo Yuchuan sighed, put out the cigarette, took out the fruit from the refrigerator, and washed it in the sink.

The takeaway came quickly, Luo Yuchuan had been paying attention to the delivery information, and as soon as the doorbell rang, he hurried to open the door.

Returning to the kitchen quickly with the packed lunch box, Luo Yuchuan hurriedly found out the plate, poured out the food in the lunch box, and put it on the table.

He thought to himself mockingly, fortunately, the rice cooker is at least successful if it cooks a pot of rice.

After finishing the meal and setting the chopsticks, he knocked on the door of the study: "Jiang Miao, it's time to eat."

Jiang Miao responded and came out quickly, taking a deep breath: "Ah, it smells so good."

Luo Yuchuan was embarrassed, he turned around and brought Jiang Miao to the table, and asked, "Do you want to drink anything?"

Jiang Miao said, "No need, isn't there some soup?"

Luo Yuchuan looked at the three dishes on the table and thought to himself that he forgot the soup.

"Huh? Didn't you make soup?" Jiang Miao walked to the table and was also taken aback.

"I'll do it now." Luo Yuchuan turned around and walked to the kitchen.

"Ah, no need, no need, there are already a lot here, and if you make soup, you will have more to eat." Jiang Miao said hurriedly.

Luo Yuchuan poured two cups of warm water, sat down and began to eat.

Jiang Miao tasted the fish-flavored eggplant, nodded, and said admiringly, "It's delicious, the senior is so good at cooking."

Luo Yuchuan was even more embarrassed.

At this moment, he would rather the food in this restaurant be a little worse, it doesn't matter if it's salty or bland, so maybe he will feel less guilty.

"I thought I heard the doorbell ring just now," Jiang Miao said.

Luo Yuchuan almost choked, and slowly swallowed the food in his mouth, before saying, "Wrong way."

"Oh."

Jiang Miao didn't take this matter to heart, he concentrated on eating, and it seemed that all the dishes were to his taste, and the chopsticks almost never stopped.

Luo Yuchuan relieved a little and comforted himself, as long as Jiang Miao likes to eat.

After eating for a while, Luo Yuchuan heard Jiang Miao say, "Senior, did you throw away the sharp peppers and replace them with green peppers?"

Luo Yuchuan looked up blankly: "What?"

Jiang Miao looked at him with a smile.

Luo Yuchuan looked down at the green peppers and sharp peppers on the table... He suddenly remembered that the peppers they bought in the supermarket were good for fried pork liver with sharp peppers, and now the pork liver was mixed with chopped green peppers on the plate , distinctly different species.

Luo Yuchuan was completely embarrassed: "You...you found out..."

Jiang Miao took a sip of saliva and said, "Senior is really smart. If I can't think of a solution like ordering takeaway, I will probably want to cry with a pot of spoiled food, but I can't cry."

Rao Yuchuan was used to being calm and calm, so he also wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in at this moment.

Want to cry but can't cry, isn't it just me?

He lowered his head and didn't know how to face Jiang Miao.

As if he didn't see Luo Yuchuan's embarrassment, Jiang Miao said again: "But for me, whether it's takeaway or cooking by myself, it's all the wishes of the seniors. Don't waste it. Eat it well."

Luo Yuchuan raised his head in surprise, watched Jiang Miao eat the food with chopsticks, and squinted his eyes in satisfaction: "It's delicious."

The mood that had been entangled all night seemed to be relieved all of a sudden. Luo Yuchuan wanted to laugh a little, put a piece of pork liver into the bowl, and said, "I will learn."

Jiang Miao smiled and shook her head: "It doesn't matter, you are a great senior whether you can cook or not."

However, Luo Yuchuan secretly made up his mind that he must learn a few special dishes.

After dinner, Jiang Miao continued to edit the film in the study. Luo Yuchuan cleaned up the kitchen and gave him fruit and water once. The rest of the time, Luo Yuchuan sat on the sofa in the living room and read his professional books.

The room was very quiet, only the sound of Jiang Miao clicking the mouse could be heard.

Luo Yuchuan was suddenly in a trance.

There are two people in the family, each is busy, but they accompany each other, they don't speak a word, but they seem to be connected with each other.

He longed for such a life but never had it, but at this moment, it seemed that he had already lived like this for a long time.

Luo Yuchuan tried his best to focus his attention on the book, not to be greedy for the tranquility and tenderness of this moment.

He was afraid that he would be too greedy, and also afraid that he would be too addicted, so he took his wishful thinking as truth.

Time passed unconsciously, and when Jiang Miao came out of the study, the hour hand of the wall clock on the wall had already pointed to 10:30.

"Ah, it's so late, I'm sorry to delay your rest." Jiang Miao said apologetically.

"No," Luo Yuchuan walked to the entrance, picked up the car keys, "I'll take you home."

"I'll just take a taxi by myself. It's too late, and it's a long way to go." Jiang Miao also went to the entrance and bent over to change her shoes.

Luo Yuchuan looked at Jiang Miao's hair spinning and said, "It doesn't matter."

Jiang Miao stood up and said, "Really, I'll call a taxi, senior..."

"I'll send it off, don't worry." Luo Yuchuan's tone was very flat, but he was very persistent.

Jiang Miao looked at him for a while, then lowered her head, smiled lightly, and said, "Senior, I want to report something to you."

"what?"

"I changed your computer desktop for you, and that one is not clear enough."

Luo Yuchuan lowered his head to change his shoes, and suddenly raised his head to look at Jiang Miao after hearing this, Jiang Miao still lowered his head and said, "I didn't ask for your opinion, would you blame me?"

Luo Yuchuan only felt that his face was hot. The panic of his secret being discovered and exposed made him a little dizzy. It was shameful enough to be found out for taking other people's photos privately. Isn't it an attitude to help him change it? ?

Luo Yuchuan leaned against the wall and twitched his fingers. He thought, the overhead light in the entrance is so bright, wouldn't it be better to turn it off?This way Jiang Miao won't see his ugly face, right?

"However, I'm a little selfish. I didn't use a group photo. Instead, I changed my solo photo. Senior, do you mind?"

Luo Yuchuan shook his head, he wouldn't mind what Jiang Miao said now... Wait!Single photo? !

Luo Yuchuan hurriedly looked at Jiang Miao, but saw Jiang Miao looking up at him slightly, with a smile in his eyes and a sly smile on his lips.

He asked: "Senior, do you mind?"

Luo Yuchuan looked into his eyes, lost his mind, and said, "I might, I'm going to check my body."

Jiang Miao was stunned: "What?"

Luo Yuchuan took a step forward slowly and said, "My heart is beating too fast."

It took Jiang Miao a few seconds to realize what Luo Yuchuan meant. He wanted to say, me too, senior, didn't you notice that I was so nervous that my hands were shaking?

But he couldn't say anything right now, he just stared blankly at Luo Yuchuan gradually approaching him.

Luo Yuchuan looked at Jiang Miao fixedly, with gentle and affectionate eyes.

Jiang Miao couldn't help lowering his head, Luo Yuchuan's eyes seemed to be warm, and he felt that his face was about to burn.

Luo Yuchuan raised his right hand, bent his index finger to gently support his chin, and slowly lowered his head to him.

Jiang Miao closed her eyes.

The cell phone rang suddenly and sharply, and the ambiguous and beautiful atmosphere was instantly broken.

Jiang Miao quickly took out her mobile phone. Because of her nervousness and panic, she almost lost her grip and dropped the mobile phone.

Luo Yuchuan put his arms around his waist.

Jiang Miao regained her composure and saw "Wu Xia" on the caller ID.

Jiang Miao cleared her throat and picked it up: "Hey, Wu Xia, I'll be back right away, do you want to..."

He thought it was Wu Xia asking him to help bring supper again, but he heard a low panting from the phone, and then Wu Xia's trembling voice sounded: "Jiang Miao, hurry... come and save me..."
