Su Qing began to gag violently, but he couldn't vomit anything, so he started coughing.
Did you buy a counterfeit product?
Su Qing checked and found that it was genuine, and the brand was the same one she had always used before.
Wait, does something that has no taste even need to be branded?
Damn.
Su Qing didn't believe it was because she hadn't eaten for several months and hadn't adjusted, so she reached out to grab some more to eat.
But even with the protein tablet in her hand and near her mouth, Su Qing couldn't swallow it for a long time.
Am I... resisting?
What is he resisting?
Su Qing was stunned.
He looked down at the so-called complete nutritional meal replacement on the table and suddenly muttered to himself.
"I'm so hungry, I really want to eat Mahiru's cooking..."
Once this thought arises, it spreads uncontrollably like a wildfire, eventually engulfing everything.
"I don't want to eat this garbage, I want to eat what Mahiru makes!"
The boy clutched his head in anguish, but where in this city could one find true daylight?
wrong.
wrong!
He had watched Mahiru cook, but he didn't say that his culinary skills were based on Mahiru's.
Su Qing had never been so grateful for her extraordinary memories.
Leaving the rented room, a wave of heat hit my face, so hot it felt almost bizarre, and I felt dizzy.
The afternoon sun seemed to grow even more scorching.
Su Qing didn't linger for a moment, only thinking about quickly going to the market to buy groceries and cook.
Damn memories, the taste buds have been constantly replaying the Mahiru cuisine they once experienced since the very beginning.
Damn damn damn! !
This feeling, like quenching thirst with the sight of plums, tormented him like a maggot seeping into his bones, constantly.
Su Qing simply hailed a small electric scooter to go grocery shopping.
Calling a taxi might not even be as fast as a donkey.
"Brother Tian, I'm so bored. What do you suggest we do?"
"Tsk, how about I take you to find a girl to play with?"
"Hey girl, where's the girl?"
"Hmm...why not just strike up a conversation on the street? Those little brats haven't seen the world before. You can easily take advantage of them by buying them a bubble tea and watching a movie, hehe..."
"Brother Tian is awesome."
During her bike ride, Su Qing encountered two blond-haired men with cigarettes dangling from their lips, looking nonchalant and carefree, but Su Qing didn't pay them much attention.
Social garbage exists in every era and every country.
Nothing surprising.
Soon they arrived at the market. Looking at the dazzling array of ingredients and hearing the lively shouts of vendors, Su Qing's mood suddenly calmed down.
"Mahiru, what should we eat first tonight?"
The boy turned around and smiled, but there was no one behind him.
Su Qing's smile vanished instantly, and her eyes became restless.
What am I doing?
Later, Su Qing left the market in a short while, having only bought some shrimp, seasonings, and eel.
He plans to recreate the tempura and eel soup that Mahiru made tonight.
This is the answer his taste buds told him.
……
The way back was the same way she came, and Su Qing ran into those two blond-haired guys again.
The difference was that there was a little girl with the two blond-haired men.
Judging from his young age, he should be a junior high school student, Su Qing concluded.
"Hey, I'll take you for milk tea, wanna come?" the man called Brother Tian asked.
"I told you I'm not going, so don't block me."
The little girl, expressionless, tried to walk around to the side, but was blocked by another person.
The man laughed twice and said, "Why are you talking like that? This road is so wide, it's not yours to stand here. If you don't like it, go around it."
The little girl knew they were bullying her and deliberately causing trouble, so she simply turned around and walked down another road.
But the two blond-haired men exchanged a glance and immediately blocked her way, one in front and one behind.
"What, what are you trying to do?" The girl panicked. She was still in fifth grade, but she was well-developed and looked like a first-year junior high student.
"It's just a milk tea, don't be so scared. You can have whatever you want, like Tea Jade Way or Shanghai Godmother?"
"I won't drink it, let me go."
"No way! I'm fine with watching a movie instead of drinking milk tea!"
"I told you I..." The girl was so aggrieved that she was about to cry, and then she really burst into tears, like a riverbank bursting its banks.
"Why, why do you all bully me?"
"Holy crap, Brother Tian, what do we do?"
The underling beside him, who had never seen anything like this before, quickly asked.
"It's okay, offering comfort is a good opportunity to strengthen the relationship..."
The man called Brother Tian smiled confidently and stepped forward, about to speak, but his face suddenly darkened.
Gloomy in a physical sense.
"Hey buddy, who are you? You know you're blocking my way."
He spoke in a very aggressive tone, acting as if he feared nothing.
"Get out." Su Qing lowered her eyes.
He didn't want to get involved, but the girl was crying, and her tears reminded him of Mahiru and Yui...
"Damn, I've never seen anyone so arrogant! Erzhu, let's go together and take him down!"
He had just turned his head to say those words when he turned back and received a solid punch from Su Qing.
It hit him squarely in the face, then lay motionless on the ground, probably asleep.
Youth is wonderful; you can fall asleep the moment your head hits the pillow...
Su Qing was a little envious.
He turned his gaze to another blond-haired man and spoke to him, his eyes filled with fear.
"Sleeping is not allowed here. Drag him away, understand?"
"Yes, yes, brother is right. We can't sleep here. Brother Tian, let's go. Sleeping here is an eyesore..."
Upon hearing this, the younger brother immediately nodded obediently and then came to Brother Tian's side to try to carry him on his back, but he was not strong enough, so he could only apologize to Brother Tian and grab his legs to pull him along.
Are you going to stay and lie there, only to end up trending on local social media the next day?
He knew the headline with his toes: "Shocking! Two men slept together on the street until the next morning..."
Su Qing watched them leave, then decided to continue riding her electric scooter home to cook.
You should know that he got off in a hurry and didn't set up temporary parking on his phone. Now, the wasted time will be counted in the cycling time.
2.5 minutes per 10 minutes!
"Big, big brother, wait a minute."
Su Qing was pondering when he had developed such a thrifty and frugal habit when the girl's voice called out to him.
"Thank you for helping me. My name is Bai Qian. What's your name, big brother?"
Bai Qian looked up; Su Qing was so tall that even the tears she had just been crying stopped.
My mom said that when I feel like crying, I should tilt my head back at a 45-degree angle and I won't cry anymore, and it's true!
Mom didn't lie to me...
Su Qing shook her head, said only "Go home quickly," and then turned around.
"Hey big brother, don't go!" Bai Qian's delicate voice appeared in front of him, and the little girl looked at him with only a pair of watery eyes.
"Big brother, can you play with me?"
"No."
"why?"
"I'm going home to cook," Su Qing said expressionlessly.
"Oh, okay then..." Bai Qian lowered her head in disappointment, but it seemed she didn't intend to persist.
Looking at her, Su Qing couldn't help but say, "You're only a middle school student, right? Why do you have to play with strangers? Don't you know it's dangerous? You saw those two people just now. Go home early."
"I...I'm in fifth grade," Bai Qian said, her head bowed and her voice trembling with sobs. "My parents are divorced. They asked me who I wanted to choose, but I didn't know, so I ran away. My teacher said that I need to be in a good mood to make the right choice, so I wanted to ask you, big brother, to play with me. And you just saved me, big brother, you must be a good person..."
Su Qing was stunned, and then she heard a string of curses.
"Ganlinliang, who put a shared bike here? Don't you have any manners? Super White."
Su Qing glanced at it and realized it was the car she had swept, but it was clearly parked on the side of the road and hadn't bothered anyone.
The worst part is that the person who was cursing him is now attacking the vegetables he just bought.
"How many horses would it take for you to touch my things?"
……
As the sun moves westward, its warmth gradually diminishes.
Su Qing felt less dizzy, so she bent down and said to Bai Qian, "Half an hour. After that, nothing you say will matter, understand?"
"Okay!" the little girl smiled innocently.
"What do you want to ask?" Su Qing asked.
He didn't understand what children his age played.
"Is 'one, two, three, freeze!' okay?" Bai Qian asked after thinking for a moment.
"Whatever," Su Qing replied dismissively.
"Then big brother, you go and count one, two, three."
"casual."
……
Time flew by, and more than twenty minutes of the game had passed in the blink of an eye.
Su Qing kept the time in mind and planned to leave early.
But as I was leaving, a cat and a dog suddenly appeared in the alley.
"Hey, it's a kitten and a puppy! This is the first time I've seen them around here."
Bai Qian, as if he had seen something interesting, excitedly went to the cat and dog and observed their appearance.
But the animals didn't seem to like her, probably because they were frightened by her recklessness.
So the cat and dog hurried over to Su Qing's feet.
