Chapter 159 An emotional crisis caused by a phone call
When Yang Xingyu put the ingredients in the refrigerator, Zhen Xin smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll go change clothes."

After saying that, she walked to her bedroom.

When Yang Xingyu saw it, he quickly speeded up and quickly put the ingredients into the refrigerator, then walked quickly towards her bedroom with a light step.

I wanted to do something that I should do on Christmas Eve while she was changing clothes.

However, as soon as he came to her bedroom door and reached out to open the door, the bedroom door opened by itself.

Zhen Xin, who had changed into a long white woolen coat, looked at him in surprise, "You put the dishes away so quickly?"

Did she just change into a coat?

Yang Xingyu felt a little disappointed. He immediately took back his right hand to open the door and said with a smile, "I do things quickly! Have you changed your clothes?"

Zhen Xin nodded, walked out of the room, closed the door and walked towards the door.

"Let's go! I heard that the restaurants outside are very busy every Christmas Eve. If we go there late, we might not be able to find a good restaurant to eat."

Yang Xingyu followed, "Speaking of restaurants, I really don't know about the better restaurants in the city. Do you have any recommendations?"

Although Shanshui City is his hometown, he is more familiar with the county where his hometown is than the urban area.

In his original time and space, whether he was going to college or starting a business, he was not in the urban area of ​​Shanshui City, so he was really not very familiar with the city.

Zhen Xin sat down on the shoe-changing bench and shook her head while changing her shoes, "You should know that I am a pretty homebody. Although I have been working in the city longer than you, I rarely eat out. , so I’m not very sure about any good restaurants nearby.”

Yang Xingyu was a little surprised.

"Then why don't you call your colleagues and ask them? There should be some of your colleagues who are more proficient in this field, right?"

Zhen Xin looked at him, shook her head and said, "I will listen to your arrangements tonight. Besides, if I call my colleagues today to inquire about the hotel, it is estimated that within a few days, all the teachers in our school will know that I went out on a date on Christmas Eve. We should be in love, I don’t want to be in such limelight.”

Yang Xingyu said oh while changing his shoes.

Already thinking about who to ask?
The first thing he thought of was Dong Xiaoxiao.

Dong Xiaoxiao has been running a clothing store in the city for a long time. She should have a good idea of ​​what good restaurants there are in the city.

But Yang Xingyu didn't want to ask Dong Xiaoxiao such a thing today.

He had long known that Dong Xiaoxiao was interested in him.

And today is Christmas Eve. He was asking about a hotel with a woman who was interested in him, but he didn't ask her to go with him. It seemed a bit cruel to Dong Xiaoxiao.

Later, Yang Xingyu thought of Jiang Jie.

Jiang Jie was his senior student. When he was in college, he and Jiang Jie were not in the same major or grade, but he was able to get to know Jiang Jie not long after he entered college because of fellow students.

Jiang Jie and he are fellow villagers.

Therefore, Jiang Jie may be more familiar with the situation in the city than he is.

After all, women are generally more interested in eating, drinking and having fun, and Jiang Jie's character...her nickname of "Little Wildcat" can explain a lot.

Her wheat-colored skin is probably not her original skin color. It may be that she was exposed to the sun from playing outside too many times.

With this in mind, when Yang Xingyu and Zhen Xin went downstairs together, they took out their mobile phones and dialed Jiang Jie's number.

"Senior! Let me ask you a question!"

"What's the question? Is there a prize for the correct answer?"

Jiang Jie asked back, her tone casual.

Yang Xingyu wanted to laugh a little, "Yes!"

Jiang Jie: "What is the prize?"

Yang Xingyu: "Let's discuss the prize later. First tell me if you know any good restaurants nearby? Recommend two to me!"

At this time, Jiang Jie, who was ordering food with her boyfriend at Fisherman's Wharf, heard Yang Xingyu ask this on the phone. She glanced at her boyfriend who came from Ningbo to spend Christmas Eve with her and said with a smile: "The fishermen on the riverside." Do you know the dock? It’s very popular here. There are a lot of people here tonight for dates. Sitting on a fishing boat and eating freshly caught fish from the river, you can not only enjoy the delicious food, but also enjoy the river view at night. You how do you feel?"

Yang Xingyu: "Is this the only recommendation? Are there any other recommendations?"

He wanted to ask a few more for Zhen Xin to choose from.

Jiang Jie: "Any other recommendations? Then go find a Western restaurant! For girls with petty bourgeoisie, Western restaurants should be very romantic, but the food is small and the price is very expensive, but I If you don’t know which Western restaurant is better, you can ask a taxi driver. Taxi drivers should know these things better.”

Yang Xingyu: "Any other recommendations?"

Jiang Jie thought for a while, "Other... farm food should be good too. I heard that there is a new Maolin Badawan restaurant on Zhongshan Road. I heard that it is a traditional banquet dish from Maolin. The portion is very generous. It tastes good, you might consider it.”

Yang Xingyu: "Oh, okay, thank you!"

Jiang Jie: "Haha, how can you thank me? You are my boss now, and serving you is what I should do! Haha."

Yang Xingyu: "Okay, hang up, bye!"

"bye!"……

At the end of the call, Yang Xingyu told Zhen Xin the three options Jiang Jie had just recommended, and then asked Zhen Xin where she wanted to go.
Zhen Xin hesitated slightly and then said: "Forget Western food, it's flashy. Since it's a traditional banquet dish, there are probably a lot of meat dishes in Maolin's Eight Bowls. You've made me gain several pounds recently, and I'm trying to lose weight!" It’s better to eat Yangtze River fish! Fish is white meat and it won’t make you gain weight easily, so it’s good.”

Yang Xingyu had no objection.

His mission tonight is to satisfy Zhen Xin and Qi Meilan.

Now that Qi Meilan is away, all he has to do is satisfy Zhen Xin for the time being.

"Do you want to drink? If you want to drink, we won't drive tonight. Let's take a taxi?"

Yang Xingyu suggested.

Zhen Xin thought for a moment and nodded.

So they walked out of the community gate side by side and stood on the roadside waiting for a taxi.

……

at the same time.

At Jiang Jie's place, her boyfriend Peng Zhaodong, who was sitting opposite her, saw Jiang Jie answering the phone and smiled and asked, "Did Yang Xingyu call you just now?"

Jiang Jie hummed, put down her phone, lowered her head and continued to look at the menu in front of her, preparing to continue ordering.

The business at Fisherman's Wharf was very busy today, and the waiters were too busy at all. At this time, there were only her and Peng Zhaodong in this small box, and there was no waiter waiting for her to order.

It was precisely because the waiter was not there that Peng Zhaodong squinted at Jiang Jie who was lowering his head to order, and asked again: "He just asked you to recommend a place for a date?"

When Jiang Jie just talked to Yang Xingyu, Peng Zhaodong heard all the places mentioned, so he roughly guessed the content of their call.

Jiang Jie hummed again, and suddenly she pointed at the spicy crab on the menu and said happily: "Zhaodong! Look, there is spicy crab here, let's order one?"

She likes spicy food, especially spicy crab.

Peng Zhaodong hummed. He knew that Jiang Jie loved spicy crab.

Seeing that Jiang Jie was still looking at the menu intently, Peng Zhaodong suddenly asked: "Has Yang Xingyu chased you?"

Jiang Jie: "???"

Jiang Jie raised her head in shock, frowned and looked at Peng Zhaodong opposite, her expression became unhappy, "Peng Zhaodong, what do you mean?"

Peng Zhaodong frowned and looked at her with complicated eyes, "Don't worry about what I mean. Just tell me the truth. Has Yang Xingyu ever chased you? Or, have you ever liked him?"

Jiang Jie's face darkened, she slapped her hand on the table, and said angrily: "Peng Zhaodong! What do you mean? Today is Christmas Eve. Did you come all the way from Ningbo to me just to ask me this kind of question? "

When Peng Zhaodong saw her getting angry, he lowered his head subconsciously to avoid looking at her again. He remained silent, slowly raised his head, looked at Jiang Jie again, and laughed at himself: "Xiaojie, I know that I am far behind Yang Xingyu now. He may be a big boss with a net worth of millions now, but what about me? I am an office worker with a monthly salary of less than [-]. He and you are fellow villagers. When you were in college, you had a good relationship. You are so beautiful, I don’t believe that he has no feelings for you at all, and he is so successful in his career now, how dare you say that you are not attracted to him at all? You have never thought about being with him? Do you dare to say that? "

Jiang Jie's face turned dark.

She originally had wheat-colored skin, but now her face was dark, giving the impression that she was on the verge of bursting into anger.

But Peng Zhaodong didn't look away at this time, just stared at her with squinted eyes.

Jiang Jie's chest heaved with anger. Then, she closed her eyes hard and took a deep breath. Then she managed to suppress the anger in her heart, opened her eyes again, and pushed the menu in front of Peng Zhaodong.

He said sarcastically: "Peng Zhaodong! You came from Ningbo specifically to break up with me today, right? If you want to break up, just say so! Don't pretend that you are here to spend Christmas Eve with me! Don't even pretend that you are here to treat me to a meal! Such a meal is not Just eat it!”

Peng Zhaodong looked down at the menu she had just pushed in front of him. He was lost in thought for a moment, and suddenly sighed softly. When he looked up at Jiang Jie again, a gentle smile had returned to his face, "Xiaojie, you misunderstood me." Well, if I really want to break up with you, I can just tell you on the phone. Why should I rush to you and tell you in person? Right? "

Jiang Jie looked at him coldly, "Then what do you mean?"

Peng Zhaodong: "I... Xiaojie, it's all my fault! It's just my imagination, but I don't think it's entirely my fault. After all, what I just said is also reality. Yang Xingyu is indeed much more successful than me now, and you are so beautiful, You are fellow villagers, right? Think about it! If he is not interested in you, then why did he ask you to help him when he started his business? Do you think this is normal? "

When Jiang Jie heard this, her brows moved slightly, and her heart also moved slightly.

Because she thinks Peng Zhaodong's analysis makes sense.

If Yang Xingyu was not interested in her, why did he ask her to help him as soon as he started his business?

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Jiang Jie asked in a deep voice.

Peng Zhaodong hesitated slightly and said: "Xiaojie, I like you. I believe you can feel this. I also want to believe you, but you and Yang Xingyu are under the melon fields now. I hope that if you also want to be with me for a long time, If so, then let’s avoid suspicion, okay?”

Jiang Jie raised her eyes slightly, "How to avoid suspicion?"

Peng Zhaodong smiled slightly, "Resign! If you resign from him and follow me to Ningbo, I will believe that you really have nothing to do."

　Thanks for the reward from Awakening.
