Oh, dear! Fish me again

Chapter 114 I am a family member?

There was a dinner party in the department in the evening. Everyone from the counselor to the class monitor called Tang Shu one after another and asked her to attend.

It is said that even the dean of the department will come to celebrate the successful overcoming of the project approval crisis by the Department of Botany, and to thank Tang Shu's family for their sponsorship.

The dinner location is Wangfujing commercial district.

I heard that a new Korean BBQ buffet restaurant opened there recently, offering all-you-can-eat food for 98 yuan, and even the waiters speak Korean, which is quite novel.

There is no group in the world who loves to join in the fun more than college students. Even if it is a long way to go, they will still go and give it a try.

"Barbecue? I'll go too!"

Gu Chiqi recommended himself while driving.

Tang Shu chuckled, "Brother Qi, it's the 98th one."

The other party immediately said, "I like the 98-yuan barbecue the most. I won't eat anything over one yuan!"

Tang Shu tugged at the hem of Gu Chiqi's T-shirt and said softly,

"Brother Qi, most of the students in our department are girls. You are so handsome and outstanding. If you go there, you will definitely be noticed by others. Then everyone will only pay attention to you. How can we have a dinner together?"

Gu Chiqi was the most susceptible to this, and the corners of his mouth were already raised.

"That's also..."

Tang Shu continued, "Brother Qi is my man, I just want to hide Brother Qi~ Next time we can go eat alone, okay?"

"Okay, I'll listen to Shushu~"

Gu Chiqi grinned, "After all, I am your man~"

In the back row, Qian Mingye sneered twice with unclear meaning.

Gu Chiqi picked up the Coke bottle next to him with one hand and threw it backwards.

"Shushu is going to a dinner party, you come with me to do something else."

"What?"

"Go treat Lu Tianchen to a good meal."

"Who is it...Oh, the one who wants to pursue Shushu?"

"Ah."

*

The barbecue restaurant has a lot of hype, but its location is not very good, as it is in an old shopping mall at the very end of Wangfujing Street.

Tang Shu got off the bus and waited for someone at the bus stop on the side of the road.

The bus stop is facing the side of a semi-old building, which looks somewhat familiar.

Looking at the sign, it’s a certain club.

Tang Shu understood. This was the place where she and Ning Hao had been before and saw him taking money from Zhang Li to do things. It was definitely a gray area.

At this moment, a man came out from the iron stairs at the back of the building.

Probably on the third or fourth floor, a rusty iron staircase meanders along the building from the back alley and is connected to an inconspicuous iron door, which should be the so-called emergency back door.

The tall man pushed the door open, leaned against the gray wall, and lowered his head to light a cigarette.

Tang Shu's eyes flashed. It was Zhang Li.

Zhang Li was wearing a white shirt that couldn't be simpler, with the hem hanging casually. There was a glaring red stain on his chest and sleeves, which was blood.

The splattered blood was obviously not his own. I wonder what happened in the building just now.

*

On the opposite side, Zhang Li lit a cigarette.

He leaned the back of his head gently against the wall, raised his chin slightly, and blew a puff of smoke upwards.

This action, when performed by a man of his level, looks both handsome and sexy.

When Zhang Li was with Tang Shu, he never smoked, so much so that she had forgotten about it.

At this time, he was standing in a place where the sun could not reach, looking up at the sky, his body stained with other people's blood.

What was he thinking as he watched the smoke dissipate?

He has worked so hard since he was a child, is it just to jump from one quagmire to another?

He is not much better now than in the original plot.

There is a kind of people who are born to live under the sunshine, grow up smoothly, and have a bright future, such as Gu Chiqi.

Some people seem to have offended the entire family of God in their previous life, and have come down to this life specifically to experience hardships and suffer. From birth, they are destined to live in a dark world all their lives.

For example, Zhang Li.

Tang Shu canceled the call to Zhuang Xiaomeng and called Zhang Li instead.

*

'Hmm? Shushu.'

On the opposite iron staircase, Zhang Li immediately put out his cigarette.

Tang Shu smiled immediately.

'Brother Zhang Li, did you miss me today?'

"Oh, I think so."

"Does my brother want to see me?"

'...May I?'

"It would be fine if my brother wore a white shirt today~"

Zhang Li looked down at his clothes and heard a low laugh from the person on the other end of the phone. He was obviously in a much better mood.

'Where are you? ' he asked.

Tang Shu stood up and walked to an unobstructed area outside the platform.

'Look to your right, across the road.'

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

After a two-second pause, Tang Shu looked over and waved at Zhang Li with a smile.

'Brother's clothes are dirty, shall I buy you a new one? Want to come?'

"...Okay, wait for me."

The man hung up the phone, his eyes fixed on Tang Shu, and quickly went downstairs.

He crossed the street and ran towards her.

*

The street-facing shops on the first floor of the mall were all having sales, loud speakers were playing loud music, and the shopping guides were holding big plastic hands and clapping non-stop, trying to attract customers in this unbelievable way.

Tang Shu also didn't like the skirt she was wearing. She felt disgusted when she thought that it was bought by Lu Tianchen.

She pulled Zhang Li into the nearest clothing store. A large poster at the door read [79 for all items].

Zhang Li looked up and couldn't help but rubbed her hair.

Neither of them was picky about clothing and they changed their clothes in just over ten minutes.

Same style white T-shirt, same style black sweatpants.

The outfit couldn't be simpler, but when worn by two handsome men, it instantly elevated their appearance by several levels.

Tang Shu said she wanted to buy something for Zhang Li, so she naturally went to the cashier to pay.

She handed the boss four hundred-yuan bills and waited for change.

The fat uncle at the counter smiled and shook his head.

"Beauty, the money is not enough~"

"Hmm? Isn't it 79 choices out of ?"

The uncle smiled mysteriously at her and pointed at the big-character poster above his head.

"Beautiful lady, please look carefully, the price starts from 79. Your top is 79, but the pants are our latest style this season, and they cost 179~"

Tang Shu looked upwards along the direction of his finger, and sure enough, behind 79, she found a very small word "起", which was semi-transparent.

Been tricked.

Humans are so cunning...

“So how much is it in total…”

'I'll round off the amount and charge you 550~'

She took out two more hundred-dollar bills with an expressionless face and handed them to the boss.

Behind him, Zhang Li raised his hands to cover his face and couldn't help laughing.

Tang Shu turned around and glared at him, but he suddenly embraced her in his arms.

Zhang Li's originally depressed mood was instantly healed. He gently stroked Tang Shu's long hair with his right hand, pressed her against his chest, and bent down to kiss her eyebrows.

He whispered to her teasingly, "I'll make it up to you later."

Tang Shu shook her head awkwardly, "It's just a small amount of money... I don't need it..."

Zhang Li raised his face, covered his eyes and smiled.

His Shushu always appeared when his soul was about to sink completely, and then shone on him like the sun.

Shushu is his sun.

"Why are you here alone?"

After leaving the clothing store, Zhang Li asked.

Tang Shu then told them about the department's dinner party.

Zhang Li nodded, took her hand, led her into the building from the correct entrance, and accurately found the elevator that led directly to the restaurant on the top floor.

"Go ahead and have fun with your classmates."

Tang Shu looked at Zhang Li, who was wearing a simple white T-shirt and black sweatpants, and she seemed to have returned to three years ago.

Three years ago, Zhang Li was wearing a half-worn white T-shirt, walking alone in the messy alleys of the old city, and turned to her and said, "Tang Shu, don't follow me."

The elevator door slowly closed, and Tang Shu suddenly reached out to stop it.

Zhang Li immediately stepped forward and blocked the elevator door with his body.

He asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did you get your hand caught?"

"No,"

Tang Shu shook her head, then held Zhang Li's hand.

"Brother Zhang Li, do you want to eat barbecue?"

The concerned expression on the man's face slowly disappeared. He lowered his head to look at her, frowning slightly.

Tang Shu slowly inserted her fingers into the man's fingertips, and then gently placed her palm against his.

The upper body leaned softly against him and whispered,

"I heard it's authentic Korean BBQ. Since it's a thank you dinner for me, I don't have to pay A. If you bring your family, you don't have to pay A..."

Zhang Li's Adam's apple slid twice, and he pursed his lips, but still did not answer.

Tang Shu shook his hand and asked coquettishly,

"Brother Zhang Li, do you want to eat?"

After a while, Zhang Li sighed.

"Tang Shu, are you sure you want to take me...to the dinner?"

Tang Shu nodded and said with a smile, "Why, Master Zhang doesn't like this kind of dinner?"

"Heh," Zhang Li chuckled.

He got into the elevator and pressed the floor button.

Suddenly asked Tang Shu, "I am a family member?"

Tang Shu raised her eyebrows.

"do not you?"

"Yes."
