Lin Anyu's words were indeed loud complaints, with a tone full of resentment.
Han Zhou lightly tapped the scroll, which was his habit of thinking when answering questions, and he said helplessly, "You talk so much useless nonsense, what should I get?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Tell me if you are free tomorrow. I really need you, it's urgent!"
"You tell me what to do first."
When asked what to do, Lin Anyu was vague and said perfunctorily: "Anyway, I won't make it too difficult for you."
Han Zhou sneered: "It won't be too difficult, but it means it will be difficult to some extent..."
He was just about to play Tai Chi with this guy, but when he looked up, he saw a familiar figure outside the milk tea shop, so he quickened his voice and said, "I will not be free until after 6pm tomorrow at the earliest. If you are in a hurry, call me then. That's it."
Ignoring Lin Anyu's shouting, he hung up the phone, stood up and asked the shop assistant to help keep an eye on the test paper on the table. The shop assistant agreed with a blushing face.
At the same time, in front of a barbecue stall opposite the milk tea shop, Gu Zheng was having an intense struggle between her conscience and her desires. Suddenly, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, and without turning her head back, she firmly grabbed the hand that was patting her shoulder from behind, and subconsciously tried to twist it back.
Unexpectedly, the hand was so powerful that she turned around in surprise and saw Han Zhou with a distorted face.
"Han Zhou? Why are you here?"
Han Zhou was struggling to hold on, and said with difficulty: "Let go of your hand first..."
"Oh, sorry, sorry!"
Guzheng exclaimed, quickly letting go of her hand and explaining, "I've been practicing self-defense recently, and it's a bit of a conditioned reflex."
However, even though she said that, her eyes were almost smiling into crescents, and she didn't look embarrassed at all.
Her cheeks were puffy like a squirrel, and she didn't know how much stuff was stuffed inside. Suddenly she looked at Han Zhou suspiciously, "But when did you become so strong?"
You are the one with more strength, right? If I wasn’t in a dying state, my hand might have been broken...
Han Zhou was too lazy to expose this guy. The barbecue grill in front of him was brand new, and the surface was so shiny that it could be used as a mirror.
He could conclude that Guzheng had definitely seen him approaching just now, and that she had attacked him so cruelly, most likely in revenge for making her watch a horror movie yesterday. She really held a grudge.
The owner of the barbecue stall was a kind old man who was calmly fanning the aroma of the barbecue skewers to the two people's faces. When he saw that the time was almost right, he smiled and said, "Would you two like to eat something?"
The fragrance was like a chain that enchanted the soul, and soon attracted Gu Zheng's attention. She quietly swallowed her saliva, wanting to eat but hesitant: "I've eaten enough today..."
Han Zhou nodded and said, "I'm glad to know. You haven't finished chewing the food in your mouth yet."
Guzheng punched him and quickly swallowed what was in her mouth.
After thinking for a moment, she took a deep breath, and then, as if she had made some difficult decision, she said righteously, "Okay! Since you want to eat so much, there's nothing I can do. I'll treat you this time. Boss, this, this, and this... give me two servings of each of these!"
Han Zhou was dumbfounded, with an expression as if he had seen a ghost: "Can you stop lying with your eyes open? When did I ever say I wanted to eat?"
Guzheng pretended not to hear and watched the boss brush oil on the skewers intently. Her eyes were shining the whole time, and she even reminded him to add more spicy flavor when sprinkling the ingredients.
The boss glanced at the two of them, smiled without saying anything, and thought to himself how good it is to be young.
Han Zhou sighed inwardly. He originally wanted to ask Gu Zheng why he was here, but when he remembered that this was a food court, he was too lazy to ask - this guy was the real glutton that Mo Yixia had always dreamed of. It would be really strange if he didn't come to this place a few times.
But it’s okay. He had been planning to look for this guy to earn points after four o’clock, but now he can save himself the effort.
So the two of them found a place to sit down, chatting occasionally while waiting for the barbecue to be served.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 10: I don't hate you, I like you
The barbecue was quickly served to the table. It smelled delicious but looked quite hot. However, Guzheng didn't care about that and just picked up a skewer of lamb and put it into her mouth.
"I remember you were tutoring today, why are you here? Were you fired on your first day?"
She looked at Han Zhou with a wicked smile on her face, and her face and lips soon turned red. The barbecue she ordered was very spicy, and the skewers were very hot. She was obviously a little overwhelmed. She kept fanning her tongue while talking, and made a "hissing" sound from time to time.
Han Zhou wanted to laugh when he saw this, and he advised: "It's not good to eat too spicy food. If you can't handle it, don't force yourself to eat it."
"Who said I can't eat it? If you can eat it, so can I!"
But he seemed to have forgotten Gu Zheng's personality. It would have been fine if he hadn't said anything. Once he said something, this guy became more excited. He frowned, lowered his head and stuffed the skewers into his mouth in big mouthfuls, as if he would not stop until he finished it.
Han Zhou thought to himself that this was not good, but he also knew that it would be difficult to persuade Gu Zheng at this time, so he had to ask the boss to bring a few more bottles of water.
He actually likes spicy food. Gu Zheng ordered spicy food to cater to his taste, and probably also because she wanted to try it herself.
"You haven't answered me yet. Are you fired?"
Guzheng lowered her head and sniffed. Her voice was trembling from the spicy smell, but she still didn't forget the original question.
"No, there was just a problem."
Han Zhou briefly explained the reason why he was here, but did not mention the stupid things like turning off the power switch and helping Mo Yixia with the test paper. Gu Zheng is not only very competitive, but also extremely serious about her work. She will definitely keep talking about it after knowing it.
After hearing this, Guzheng paused and asked, "Is your student nearby now?"
"Ah."
"where is it?"
Han Zhou gave her a strange look and asked, "Are you interested in her?"
"Just a little curious..."
After a tough battle, Gu Zheng finally finished her portion of the barbecue. Han Zhou almost laughed out loud when he looked up. His whole round face was red from the spiciness, his eyes were full of tears, and there was a lot of chili powder at the corners of his mouth and even on the tip of his nose. He looked like a round-headed red pepper.
Gu Zheng was always very sensitive to Han Zhou's ridicule. She immediately glared at him fiercely and said unhappily, "Are you laughing at me?"
"Nothing."
Han Zhou coughed twice, handed over a pack of tissues, shook his head and said, "But I suggest you wipe your mouth first."
Gu Zheng snorted coldly and snatched the tissue. Just as she finished wiping her mouth, she saw a plate being pushed over. She heard the other party continue to say, "Are you full? Or you can eat mine too."
"Do you think I'm a pig?"
Gu Zheng looked at him unhappily and warned him, "This is my treat for you, you keep it for yourself and you must finish it, do you hear me?"
"Okay, but I'm going to go buy some pens for the students first. I'll be right back."
"Go quickly, and remember to come back and finish your food. Don't even think about running away!"
Guzheng seemed a little impatient and kept waving her hands as if to shoo away a fly.
Seeing Han Zhou disappear, she suddenly stood up, took a few stealthily steps in the direction Han Zhou left, and looked around a few times. Seeing that the other person's figure had completely disappeared, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she couldn't help it anymore, and hurried to the table to unscrew the mineral water and drink it.
"It's so spicy, so spicy, how can it be so spicy!"
Her tongue almost burned, but she couldn't drink water in front of Han Zhou for fear of being laughed at.
After drinking two bottles of water in succession, Gu Zheng felt that her tongue had regained some sensation and the pain on the tip of her tongue was relieved. At this moment, Han Zhou walked back from not far away.
Guzheng sat upright and pretended to be calm, fearing that someone would notice something was wrong.
Seeing Han Zhou sitting down with an expressionless face, she rolled her eyes and suddenly pointed at the plate and said loudly: "Hurry up and finish the rest. I'll watch you eat!"
Anyone could see the ill intention in her expression.
The owner of the barbecue stall not far away secretly shook his head, thinking that this girl was still too naive. He had just seen with his own eyes how Han Zhou hid behind the stall next door. He had been secretly watching the girl who was so spicy that she didn't know what to do. He was laughing so hard that tears came out, and he seemed to have taken a few photos with his mobile phone.
It must be hard to hold back your laughter...
"hurry up!"
"Oh."
Facing Guzheng's urging, Han Zhou remained calm. He picked up a skewer and suddenly pretended to be confused and asked, "Strange, where did the water I put on the table go?"
Guzheng turned her head to look at the gloomy sky. The heavy rain didn't seem to stop.
"What water? I didn't see any."
"Did you laugh just now? You're lying, you obviously laughed!"
……
[Daily Task 10 (Guzheng): Make the target fall into a heartbeat acceleration state 10 times 1/, get point]
[Daily Task 10 (Guzheng): Get the target ten sentences of "I'm Afraid" 10/1, get point]
After finishing a plate of barbecue, Han Zhou wiped his mouth contentedly, feeling happy.
From the perspective of daily tasks alone, Gu Zheng was obviously much easier to deal with than Mo Yixia. In just less than half an hour, he successfully completed two daily tasks. He was in a good mood for the moment, and the more he looked at the class monitor, the more he thought she was lovable.
However, he did not forget that he still had important things to do. Seeing that the time was almost up, he stood up and said goodbye, "I still have to supervise the students to do their homework, so I'll leave first. I'll come to your house to find you tomorrow."
Gu Zheng was in a low mood. After all, it was a pity that she didn't see Han Zhou getting so mad at the spicy food. After hearing that, she took out her phone and looked at it. She nodded and said, "Okay, then you work hard. I should go back to exercise."
"Did you bring an umbrella?"
"I have it." She took out an umbrella from her bag.
Han Zhou felt relieved, stood up and said sincerely: "Thank you, I enjoyed this barbecue very much."
"Just be happy. Remember to treat me to a meal some other day."
Guzheng waved her hand nonchalantly, walked into the rain with an umbrella, and disappeared soon.
Han Zhou watched her leave, and then he noticed that Gu Zheng was wearing a beautiful floral dress today, which showed off her girlish temperament and would definitely attract a lot of attention. It was a pity that his attention was not on that just now.
At the same time, Gu Zheng, who was walking in the rain, suddenly became annoyed. She stamped her feet fiercely and tugged at the hem of her skirt angrily: "Isn't my outfit good-looking? That guy didn't even praise me..."
Han Zhou naturally had no idea that Gu Zheng actually wanted to be praised. He had already returned to the milk tea shop at this moment. Although it took some time, it should not be a problem to finish the test papers on the table.
Mo Yixia has never come back, but it's normal to think about it. It's a rare opportunity to go out and play. If it were Han Zhou, he would probably come back on time. He threw away all distractions and began to answer the questions wholeheartedly.
It was soon four o'clock and the rain was almost stopping. Han Zhou stretched and had almost finished the test paper. If there hadn't been many girls in the milk tea shop secretly looking at him, and some even plucked up the courage to come over and ask for his contact information, he might have finished it even faster.
He had long been accustomed to this. After all, his charm was as high as seven points. Although he was not extremely handsome, he could still deserve the title of a handsome guy.
Strangely, Mo Yixia still hasn't come back. Han Zhou is a little confused. He originally reserved the time after four o'clock for Gu Zheng, but he had already seen her today, so he was not in a hurry. But it was still necessary to ask.
Not keeping your promises is not a good habit.
However, before he could contact the other party, a strange number suddenly called him. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be Mo Yixia calling.
As expected, as soon as the call was connected, Mo Yixia's indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone: "I'm Mo Yixia, is that you?"
Did this guy forget my name... Han Zhou said, "It's me. It's already four o'clock. Why haven't you come back yet?"
Mo Yixia was silent for a while, then said calmly: "I'm lost."
"What? Lost?" Han Zhou was stunned. This was a reason he had never thought of. "Where did you go?"
