Chapter 265 Young Heart
"By the way, did you receive the message?" Li Mu asked Brother Nan.
"what news?"
"It was sent by Wen Ting from the Organization Department."
"Oh, I got it." Brother Nan suddenly lay down on the table, supporting his face with one hand, turning his head to the other side, staring at the menu posted on the wall.
Looks a bit weird
"Let me see the message Wen Ting sent you." Li Mu said, glancing at Brother Nan.
"No."
"What are you looking at with your head turned?"
"Well, I'm looking at the menu on the wall."
"."
Li Mu suspected that Brother Nan was deliberately not looking at him and put one hand between him and her.
At the same time, Nan Ge didn't hear Li Mu's reply, so she turned her head little by little until she could see Li Mu. She quickly glanced at him and asked hesitantly, "Why are you looking at me?"
"I'm looking at the menu too. There's one on the wall behind you, too."
"No more watching! I won't watch it either!"
"Oh." Li Mu withdrew his gaze.
Brother Nan finally put his hand down, but he still didn't look at Li Mu. He turned his head and looked around, "It seems like we can add some side dishes here."
After saying that, she stood up and went to take a look.
After a while, two roasted pig's trotters, two braised eggs, and a plate of cold pickled pepper and black fungus were served.
Brother Nan took out two pairs of chopsticks and handed one to Li Mu.
The two of them lowered their heads and ate in silence. For some reason, they always had a strange feeling in their hearts.
Soon, the rice noodles arrived.
Served in a coarse porcelain bowl, there were white rice noodles and a large bowl of chicken soup topped with some scraps of chicken and chicken blood.
It’s a time-honored brand indeed, it smells really good.
At the same time, the steaming chicken soup also dispelled the strange atmosphere between the two of them.
After eating the pig's trotter, Brother Nan wiped his hands, picked up the chopsticks, and first picked up a piece of thick rice noodles from Li Mu's bowl.
"good to eat!"
"The thinner ones are tastier! Try mine!"
"Ah."
Li Mu also picked up a few rice noodles from Brother Nan’s bowl, tasted it, and nodded.
The rice noodles look light and taste the same, but they are very delicious. One bite makes every internal organ feel comfortable.
He secretly took note of this restaurant and decided to bring Li Qinran and Yogurt there to eat again in the future.
Just as I was thinking about it, Li Qinran sent me a WeChat message.
Qinran: Have you finished your activities with Brother Nan?
Li Mu: It’s over now. How was the photography exhibition?
Qinran: The photo has been selected, but the specific ranking will depend on the judges’ review.
Li Mu: Oh.
Qinran: Did you and Brother Nan have dinner outside?
Li Mu: Yes, I’m eating.
Qinran: As expected, when Lao Li asked me whether you were going home for dinner, I told him that you must be eating out with Brother Nan.
Li Mu: Are you coming? This is a time-honored rice noodle restaurant, the taste is pretty good.
Qinran: No!
Qinran: I think eating is part of your activity today, so I won’t disturb your date. If you’re interested, just pack some for me.
Li Mu secretly glanced at Brother Nan and typed: Don’t talk nonsense.
Qinran: [expression]
"Who are you chatting with?" Brother Nan asked.
"Qinran."
"Oh."
It was already dark when we finished eating the rice noodles.
Li Mu got up and packed a portion for his sister and paid the bill at the same time. Brother Nan gave him a red envelope.
"Why are you sending me a red envelope?" Li Mu looked at Brother Nan in confusion. "Here." Brother Nan took out his cell phone and showed it to him.
The message sent by Wenting was the same, probably copied from the group message, except that the message sent to the girls about having dinner together had a bracket at the end saying that the expenses would be shared equally, but the message to the boys did not have that.
The Organization Department’s considerations are quite thoughtful.
The two of them pushed their bicycles and walked slowly along the street to eat.
Brother Nan chattered about how there was a Laocang vinegar rice noodle restaurant in the provincial capital where you could drink fruit vinegar for free, and he suggested going there next time. Li Mu nodded in agreement.
The wheels turned under the street lights, making a hissing sound.
Finally they rode their bikes back home.
Li Mu went home only after sending Brother Nan back to the provincial party committee compound.
When he arrived at the community, he looked at the time and it was already half past nine.
After locking his bicycle downstairs, Li Mu just went upstairs and saw a small figure squatting at the door. The security door was open a crack, and the small figure was waiting silently.
Sitting upright, a little fluffy ball.
Hearing the footsteps, the kitten raised its head, stretched out its little claws to push the gap in the security door wider, and looked up at him: "Nimu, you're back."
"Well, Lady Yogurt, you've been waiting for me for a long time, right?" Li Mu bent down and picked her up.
"No, Mr. Yogurt has only been sitting here for a short while."
"Oh, I see." Li Mu smiled.
"Ms. Yogurt is so good to you. She ran to the door and squatted to wait for you after dinner, and even jumped up to open the door." Li Qinran said enviously while unpacking the rice noodles. "I asked her to lie on the sofa and wait for you, but she didn't listen."
"Mr. Yogurt is afraid that I'll get lost." Li Mu held the kitten's four paws lovingly and warmed them with his body temperature.
As soon as he picked up the kitten, he knew that Yogurt had been waiting at the door for a long time, and all four pads were cold.
"That's right. People's eyes are blind at night!" The cat lay on Li Mu's legs. "The nose is not sensitive either. It's easy to get lost."
"Don't be afraid, Master Yogurt is so powerful, even if I get lost, he will definitely find me."
"Yes!"
Li Qinran ate rice noodles while watching Li Mu chatting with Suo Yang with envy.
Mr. Yogurt has now allowed her to be touched, but not hugged. She still needs to work harder.
After sitting in the living room for a while, Li Mu took a shower, cleaned up and lay down on the bed.
The kitten lay on her back beside him, reciting the ancient poem that had just been taught to her in a soft and gentle voice, with great seriousness.
Li Mu listened silently for a while, took the phone and opened Brother Nan’s WeChat.
The single youth gathering activities have a fixed task, which is to send a good night message every night and remind the participants to go to bed early.
Li Mu: Are you there?
Brother Nan replied immediately: Not here.
Li Mu:.
Li Mu: What are you doing?
Jiang Daimao: Just finished a bath and ate an apple.
Li Mu: Didn’t you play games?
Jiang Daimao: No.
Li Mu: Why don’t you play? Don’t you play a game every night?
Jiang Daimao: Not playing today.
Li Mu: Why?
Jiang Daimao: I don’t want to play.
Li Mu: Then do you watch TV series?
Ginger Daimao: No brushing.
Li Mu: Why?
Jiang Daimao: Are you sick today? Why are you asking so many questions?
Li Mu: You should go to bed early.
Ginger Daimao:
Li Mu: It’s your turn.
Jiang Daimao: You should go to bed early.
Li Mu: Okay.
Jiang Daimao: OK/silly
Li Mu: Good night.
Jiang Daimao: Send me a selfie.
Li Mu: Why?
Jiang Daimao: I want to see it.
Li Mu turned on the camera on his phone and switched to the front camera.
He was wearing a very ordinary white T-shirt without any decoration. He lay on the bed and looked at the camera, changing several angles before pressing the shutter.
Sent successfully.
Li Mu typed quickly, wanting Brother Nan to reciprocate by sending a selfie, and then he received her message.
Jiang Daimao: Good night.
