Chapter 28
Lu Ming leaned into the store and saw fresh vegetables on the shelves, and there were many stoves, pots and pans further inside.The boss, Sun Yong, is a middle-aged man with a bald head, always smiling, and looks very energetic.

It didn't take long for Tao Xinyi to pick out the dishes and half a catty of meat from the freezer, then turned and went into the public kitchen to cook.

Lu Ming originally wanted to fight, but when his hand was injured, he could only watch from the sidelines, chatting with Sun Yong.

To be honest, the vegetables sold in this store are a few cents cheaper than those in the vegetable market. Sun Yong hardly makes any money, and he would not open this store if he wanted to make money.Many family members of patients who come and go will say hello to Sun Yong, but they leave in a hurry before they can say a few words.

On the contrary, Lu Ming was considered an idler. After chatting with Sun Yong for a while, he started calling him brother.

After several conversations, Lu Ming learned that Sun Yong couldn't let go after his wife died of illness, so he opened a patient self-service kitchen near the hospital.For long-term hospitalized families, all the family money is saved for their lives, and most of them are not rich.

Sun Yong's store doesn't want to make money either, it's good to be able to make ends meet every month, and it's struggling to maintain it.

Lu Ming looked at the dark blue eyes under Lu Yong's eyes and said, "Brother Yong, when will your store open until?"

"That's not sure, sometimes it's eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening, counting the cleaning and finishing in the early morning." Sun Yong smiled wryly, with water in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Tired, but very fulfilling. But it is losing money, I don’t know if it will not be able to drive on that day.”

As he spoke, the voice of this 1.8 meter tall man trembled a little, choking slightly.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if my shop is gone, I just feel sorry for those patients. If my shop is gone, where should they go to cook home-cooked food..."

"Brother Yong, I admire you."

As he spoke, Lu Ming took out 620 six yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Sun Yong's arms.

Seeing him stuffing money into himself, Sun Yong's face became extremely serious, and he stuffed the money back into Lu Ming's hands with his rough hands.

"It's not easy for your parents to find money. No matter how hard it is, the elder brother can still maintain it. Take it away, I don't want it. You are still in high school, so you can keep the pocket money yourself!"

Lu Ming couldn't help but feel a sore nose and said: "I earned this money myself. It's easy for me to make money, really. You can think of me as a rich second generation who was born to rest on money, just take it."

"Rich second generation, you eat farts! Which rich second generation has more than 600 yuan in pocket? Go out with the girl to wear street goods, and the shoes are so old that they have been worn for several years." Sun Yong sighed, with complicated emotions, and shot Patted Lu Ming's shoulder: "Your kindness, Brother Yong appreciates it."

For a moment, Lu Ming didn't know what to say.

After he was reborn, it was too easy for him to make money. It is possible to throw money into the stock market and buy some familiar GEM stocks, which can be multiplied hundreds of times.Today, they can't even give more than 600 yuan.

"Brother Yong, how about this? I'll give you the more than 600 yuan, but put it in my hands to invest first. When I make money, I'll come see you wearing a brand-name suit and give you the dividends."

The young man's eyes were full of confidence and were extraordinarily bright, and the certainty in his words made Sun Yong startled.

Sun Yong has been struggling in the society for several years, and he has long realized that money is not easy to earn. He only thinks that this is a young man with a little arrogance, and he thought the same way when he was young, so he grinned.

"That's fine. Ah Ming, you are so hardworking. Brother Yong will wait until you get the money."

Although Lu Ming heard that Sun Yong was perfunctory, he didn't say anything, just lowered his head and smiled.

Now that I am reborn, let me make up for more regrets.

Tao Xinyi watched with satisfaction when the braised pork was fried. The color was attractive and the meat was full of aroma. Sprinkled with green onion and a little garnish, it was really delicious. She put it in the packing box, but she held the plastic cover and was reluctant to cover it. She turned her head shouted at Lu Ming.

"Come here!"

Hearing her call to him, Lu Ming thought something was wrong, and under Sun Yong's teasing eyes, he hurried to Tao Xinyi's side and said, "What's wrong?"

Tao Xinyi picked up a piece of braised pork that was both fat and thin, and handed it to his mouth. With beautiful eyes, she said softly, "Try it? I made it delicious."

Meeting her gaze, Lu Ming felt his heart beating wildly after stopping for a second, as if he was floating in a dream.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Tao Xinyi began to think about it again, lowered her eyes, and said sadly: "I just wanted to feed you a bite because you hurt your hand."

"Actually, you don't like me, right? I crossed the line, you go get the spoon."

Lu Ming took a bite of the braised pork, chewed it exaggeratedly, and said while eating, "It's delicious, wow! It's so delicious! So if you like it or not, no one in the world will hate you!"

The aunt who was cooking next to them couldn't help sneaking a peek at them, holding back her laughter desperately, secretly thinking that it's nice to be young.

"That's right. Well, just go out and wait for me to fry some cabbage."

Because Tao Xinyi buried her head too low, Lu Ming couldn't see her expression clearly, only saw her earlobes were as red as pomegranate grains, looking hot.

The public kitchen is not big, and there are constant people coming and going. It is not easy for Lu Ming to stand in the aisle for a loafer, so he backed out.

"Hey, you're not bad, kid."

Sun Yong teased, many past memories flashed in his mind, and he turned to greet other customers to check out.

Nothing happened to the left and right, Lu Ming was standing outside the store, passing by many people wearing ripped jeans and the popular Walkmans at that time.The girlfriend who could cook that I wanted to find before turned out to have appeared so early.

How old did I meet Tao Xinyi?
Just as she was thinking about it, Tao Xinyi came out of the store carrying the packed meals, and seeing Lu Ming in a daze, she couldn't help but make a sound.

"What are you thinking?"

"I forgot when we met. Do you still remember?" Lu Ming stretched out his hand to hook the meal in her hand, and touched her warm fingertips, his pupils constricted.

"13 years old. We were classmates in junior high school, and we were classmates at that time. Later, we were promoted to high school, and we didn't expect that we were assigned to classmates again."

Tao Xinyi walked forward without looking back, and said to herself, with obscure emotions hidden in her eyes: "Then, in the third year of high school, we became tablemates..."

Lu Ming followed her, walking slowly and listening quietly, feeling regret and happiness in his heart, and filled with emotions.

However, Lu Ming's silence seemed to Tao Xinyi to be hesitant. No matter how ambiguous it was just now, it was not made clear.

The midday sun was terribly dazzling, and it was so bright that her eyes hurt, anticipation turned into a bitter medicine and poured into her mouth, and the damn secret love continued.So, does he like me?

Or is he like any girl?

After all, he also said, "I like pretty girls as long as they look good."I'm so good-looking, he must just like it casually...

Seeing that Tao Xinyi remained silent for a long time, Lu Ming stepped forward, turned in front of her, and asked, "Of the boys in our class, who do you like the most?"
