Chapter 22 Hot Pot
The operation was far more difficult than expected. Xu Xing was busy until after three o'clock in the afternoon before finishing the operation. He was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he was not feeling well.

Xu Shijian took off his gloves, glanced at her, and joked slowly: "Yuan Xu, take it easy, this is a veterinary hospital, we can't treat people."

Xu Xing rolled his eyes at him, "Can you stop driving around in a white coat? It's very easy to remind me of the word "dressed beast."

Xu Shijian laughed, lowered his head to wash his hands, but his expression slowly became serious: "Xu Xing, tell me the truth, what is the identity of that man?"

He and Xu Xing had been classmates for four years, and after graduation they started a business together to open a pet hospital. They had a different relationship. Naturally, she knew that she had always pretended to be a brother Gu in her heart.Although he was very dismissive of that kind of little girl's admiration, he didn't think she suddenly fell in love with others.

Xu Xing sighed while washing his hands, "It's hard to say, I'll tell you when I have a chance." She was about to turn around and leave, then paused again, and turned around: "Shi Jian, you said that if one day, I suddenly disappeared, or was What if some perverted serial killer is kidnapped?"

Xu Shijian didn't look back: "Do you think this is the United States? It's been a perverted serial killer for how many years, didn't there be one just a while ago?"

"That's on the bright side. In places you can't see, there may be countless psychopaths who disguise themselves as normal people and wait for the opportunity."

Xu Shijian looked at her suspiciously: "...What's wrong with you? I've never seen you pay attention to this kind of news before. You don't even have time to read Weibo. Now you are not only late but also leave early every day. I think you are not thinking about it. I'm falling in love... By the way, our school's [-]th anniversary today, invitations are all sent to Xiaomeng. I'm too busy saving money for my wife, so I won't make any donations, what about you?"

"School celebration?" Xu Xing blinked, "Go!"

Xu Shijian knew what she was thinking at a glance, and couldn't bear to look directly at her forehead: "Xu Xing, Dean Xu, you are also a person with an annual income of several million, so don't be like this..."

After he paused, Xu Xing had already disappeared.

She didn't leave Xu Shijian on purpose, it's just that he couldn't stop talking, and Xu Xing was hungry, so he ran away.At first, she was ordering meals for herself with her mobile phone, but when she opened the office door, she found that the induction cooker she used to make tea...was cooking hot pot.

She stared blankly for a long while, and Xiaomeng stood up nervously: "Officers Han and Han made it, and told me to keep an eye on it. If there is no water, just add it. You just eat it after the operation." .”

Xu Xing: "..."

She walked over, lifted the transparent cover, and asked, "How many times have you added water?"

"Five, five times?" Xiao Meng said uncertainly.

The corners of Xu Xing's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at the boiled cabbage and the sloppy soup base.

Xiao Meng became even more nervous.She said, Xu Xing has always been demanding, how could he eat such a simple hot pot, and hurriedly said, "Xu Yuan, how about I order a meal for you..."

"No need." Xu Xing sat down, took the cold rice beside him, dipped two spoonfuls of soup into it, and started to eat while cooking. He raised his head and glanced at Xiaomeng in the middle: "Have you eaten?"

"Eat." Xiaomeng replied decisively.

"Yeah." Xu Xing lowered his head and continued eating.

Xiao Meng just watched her usually hypocritical Xu Yuan, and after eating half of the pot of food, she already classified Han Chen as a beauty and a disaster in her heart.

For the first time, Xu Yuan, who worked diligently, began to sabotage.

For the second time, the picky Xu Yuan ate hot pot and cold rice.

After Xu Xing finished eating, he took out a tissue and wiped his mouth: "I don't have anything to do today. I'll leave first. The Animal Protection Association only asks you to pay for the medicine."

Look, it's time to leave early again, Xiao Meng nodded with a stern face.

Xu Xing turned around and walked out to the lounge.

Through the glass door, she saw Han Chen sitting on the side of the sofa, looking down at his phone.The slender legs were stretched out casually, and the forehead was propped up with one hand, with a few strands of black hair interspersed among them, and the lining of the fingers became whiter.

She pushed open the door with one hand in her pocket.

Han Chen looked away from the phone, looked at her lips slightly curled up, and asked, "How about the hot pot?"

Xu Xing: "It's too nasty, do you eat this at the police station?"

A smile flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly, "I won't eat."

"But the rest of the team like it very much. No matter when you are busy, you can eat hot food immediately."

Xu Xing: "...Although you cook for me what you don't eat, I'm a generous person. I invited you to dinner. Would you like to go to the dinner worth 50?"

Han Chen slightly raised his eyebrows.
