When I get home every day, I quickly wash my hands and change my clothes, and then plunge into the kitchen to do my job. In this busyness, his heart was brisk and flying. For many people, the tedious housework and cooking, for him, is a kind of enjoyment. He is more familiar with her kitchen than Guo Zhi himself, and knows what is in which corner.

At times like this, he felt as if he had taken root in this house.

It feels good, very good.

He put on headphones, hummed a song, and turned over the pork ribs in the pot. The aroma has permeated the entire room. He sniffed, satisfied. Put the lid on the pot, lean out and look at the wall clock on the wall in the living room.

It's almost time to come back, right?

Just as was thinking about it, felt a shock in pocket, and the music stopped.

Busy took out his mobile phone and saw Guo Zhi called.

"Sister Guo?"

"I can't do it today." Guo Zhi said, "Eat it yourself. It's too late today."

"In Meiying?"

"Yes. I won't tell you, I'm busy here!" Guo Zhi quickly hung up.

Alex looked at his phone, sighed, took off his headphones, and tucked the phone into his pants pocket. Turn off the fire.

Originally wanted to stir-fry green vegetables, but Guo Zhi didn't come back, so he ate two bowls of rice with spare ribs.

Eating alone is obviously something you are used to. But looking at the empty house, Alex inexplicably lost his food. The guy who usually eats three bowls of rice and drank two bowls of soup, today only ate two bowls of rice and drank one bowl of soup. But one plate and one bowl, plus a pair of chopsticks, just wash your hands.

If had nothing to do, went to Guo Zhi's study to look through it. Most of the books on the bookshelf are professional books in this industry. There are also some books on geography, some with a special angle in a certain place. Alex guessed that that was where Guo Zhi wanted to go.

such as Spain. There is a travel book, the part about Spain is broken in several places. But the book looks a little old, and I don't know if Sister Guo has been there since.

I flipped through some more... "The Domineering President's Little Wife"? what the hell? "The President's Favorite Wife"? what the hell?

Flip through it, Alex: "..."

I can't believe Sister Guo still reads this kind of essay. Alex feels like this is what his high school girl classmates saw, right? Think of Guo Zhi's consistent momentum and image... It's really against the harmony!

But he didn't put it down. Instead, he flipped through it again. After reading half of the book, he probably understood the routine of this kind of rhetoric.

The president is always domineering, rich and powerful, and calls for wind and rain. No matter how you and the heroine didn't understand each other before, as long as you understand your own feelings, you will start pampering! All kinds of showing off wealth, all kinds of short-term protection, all kinds of slaps in the face. In short, what the heroine wants, the president has everything, and can give.

So, even an independent woman like Sister Guo, will she yearn for such a man in her heart?

Alex shoved the book back in, sinking a little.

In this country, in this society, the most common values ​​are still that men and women should be weaker than men, or both of them can be equal, but at least men are a little bit stronger than women, yes, even if A little bit will make you feel comfortable.

If not, the balance between the male and female pair cannot be maintained.

In fact, even Alex's own values ​​are like this. Therefore, he was very frustrated with his "weakness".

Really, compared to Sister Guo, he is really too weak. This weakness is not only reflected in economic ability, but also in xingqíng. Guo Zhi is really more tenacious and tenacious than him.

This can't be done, Liao Yuan! You gotta do it!

But how to do it? It's even more frustrating to think about.

What if he tried his best to catch up now? But make some quick and hard money. In the modeling industry, food is green rice. He really had seen too many people who couldn't get along, and finally got old and could only leave sadly. David is one of them.

He does look better than Dawei. So what? There is never a shortage of handsome men and women in this circle. Let's just say that he used to do group performances and earned 50 yuan a day. Among the partners who were lying on the ground with him to play dead people, there were also a lot of handsome guys. They are not red.

If you are not popular, you will not be able to make money.

For the goal he wants to pursue, earning money is the first thing that must be achieved.

Alex sat on the sofa and rubbed his face. With his brain, he couldn't think of a good way out for a while.

Let's wait for Sister Guo to come back and have a good chat with her, and see if Sister Guo can point him. As long as you can show him a way out, he is not afraid of how hard it is.

He lay down on the sofa, picked up his phone and checked QQ. After chatting with classmates for a while, switched to WeChat to brush Moments.

Suddenly saw a circle of friends of Guo Zhifa.

A selfie.

Guo Zhi put on dead fish eyes, and also accompanied a scene map with a messy scene. The text reads: [Mom x! Delayed again! I don't know what time it will be today. Take a ten minute break to catch your breath. It feels like the stomach is already brewing up! ] The time is three minutes ago.

Feel like your stomach is brewing up?

Alex was taken aback. What's the meaning?

He replied below: [Sister Guo, what's wrong with your stomach? 】

Guo Zhi was obviously resting, and replied almost in seconds: [I didn't eat dinner well, I have a stomach problem. ] Alex remembered that Guo Zhi had said before that she used to stay up late and work overtime because she didn't eat on time, and her stomach was boiled.

The best thing is to have some hot porridge, she said. The kind that is boiled soft and rotten, drink it, the stomach will feel a lot more comfortable.

But the porridge in the porridge shop outside was made so rotten by adding baking soda. It was not really cooked. Drinking too much is not good for the body, she complained.

Alex looked up at the wall clock. Cooking porridge takes time. If you want to boil a pot of porridge to the point of being soft and rotten, you need more heat.

But that's okay! In addition to adding baking soda, there is actually another shortcut you can take.

Alex rolled over from the couch in a jiffy, and dug out a pressure cooker from the kitchen cupboard.

Yes, a pressure cooker.

As for how Guo Zhi, who is not skilled in the kitchen business, has a pressure cooker, Alex did ask Guo Zhi out of curiosity.

"Oh, that! My mom bought it last time!"

Sure enough, it was impossible for Guo Zhi to buy it himself. And when Alex found the pot, there was already a thick layer of dust on it. It can be seen that the "last time" Guo Zhi's mother came to the imperial capital was a long time ago, and after that, obviously the pot was never used again.

Later, Alex cleaned the pot and used it twice. Look, this time, it comes in handy again, isn't it.

Thank you Mama Guo!

Using the pressure cooker, a pot of soft and glutinous white porridge was quickly pressed. Alex found a heat preservation soup bucket - according to Guo Zhi, it was a prize drawn during the company's activities. It was brand new before, and the box had not been opened yet. After Alex found out, he shrewdly washed it. Look, it's also used now, isn't it?

So one must be diligent! Diligence is definitely not a bad thing!

At around 8:40, Alex went out with a bucket of porridge. Take a taxi to Meiying's studio.

This is also the famous big studio of Emperor Capital. Large companies like K's usually rent it here if there is no accident.

Alex really wanted to go in directly, handed the porridge to Guo Zhi, and watched her eat it with his own eyes. But he knew that was impossible. Sister Guo would never like her relationship with him to be known by her colleagues.

This realization made him feel a little sour and lost, and let him know that he had to work hard. If she can't be a person who is worthy of her, she will not let him stand by her side.

Yes, it is.

He called Guo Zhi outside the shed.

Coincidentally, Guo Zhigang shouted "Ten minutes to rest", and Alex's phone came in. She frowned, rubbed her aching stomach with one hand, and answered the phone with the other: "Hello?" She was careful not to call out Alex's name.

"Sister Guo, I'm outside the building, can you come out when it's convenient for you?" The boy's voice was cautious.

"...I'll go over now, you wait." Although she didn't know what happened to him, she thought it was better to go over there and take a look. Alex is not the kind of child who doesn't understand, and won't interrupt her work casually. There must be something wrong.

He hurriedly walked outside the building, but did not see Alex's person. Guo Zhi looked left and right, and heard the boy's voice suddenly sound: "Sister Guo."

Only then did I see that in the night, the boy was very careful to hide himself in a corner where there was no light. That place, even if someone walked by, if you didn't look there deliberately, it would be difficult to find a big living person there.

"What's wrong? What's the matter?" Guo Zhi walked over quickly and asked with a frown.

"This..." The boy handed over the heat preservation bucket in his hand and said softly, "I've made porridge. You can drink some of it when you have time to make your stomach feel better."

The bucket was handed over, and Guo Zhi subconsciously reached out to take it, but he didn't say a word for a while.

"I'm leaving Sister Guo. Remember to take time to drink. It will make your stomach feel better when it's hot." Alex still remembered telling her, "Don't forget to bring the bucket back."

He knew that Guo Zhi was busy, that she didn't like to be disturbed at work, and that she didn't like others to find out about his relationship with her. He didn't say a word of unnecessary nonsense, greeted Guo Zhi, and trotted away from here to take a taxi by the side of the road.

Guo Zhi only had time to say "um" a few times, but didn't say anything, and Alex was gone.

When it came, it was as quiet as a shadow, and when it went away, it was as neat as a gust of wind.

Only Guo Zhi was left standing there holding the heat preservation bucket in a daze.

When we returned to the shed, the rest time was not over yet.

Guo Zhi found a corner, opened the heat preservation bucket, and drank the porridge. The porridge was warm and hot, soft and glutinous, nothing was added, it was pure white rice. It was Guo Zhi's favorite drink when he had a stomachache.

A warm feeling slid down his throat all the way to his stomach.

Thinking of the boy quietly hiding himself in the dark corner... Guo Zhi bit the spoon, and his mood was mixed for a while.

Can't tell what it feels like.

☆、Chapter 44

In this way, even if he can't be worthy of her in the end, he can't stand by her side, so what?

not so good!

That's good!

Alex was sitting in the taxi, looking at the dazzling night view of the Imperial Capital. My heart is also a mess.

He actually ran away.

When he handed the insulation bucket to Sister Guo, Sister Guo's eyes... He didn't know what to do, so he ran away...

Until ran to the side of the road, until got into a taxi, heart was still pounding!

He suddenly looked away.

Yes, he will work hard and he will fight for it. But even if he is not worthy of her in the end, he is not afraid.

She was kind to him, long beyond him sleeping with her, she gave him the scope of the project.

The kindness she treats to him comes from the bottom of her heart. The simplest way is the kindness of one person to another.That's all.

Even if he can't stand by her side in the end, so what.He wasn't worthy of her.

As long as he can give him one or two in return while he is still by her side, he will be content!real.

Just like just now, he didn't think much about it, just because he was afraid of her stomachache, so he cooked porridge, so he sent it to her in the evening.He didn't want anything in return.But when she looked at him, it was an unexpected reward.

He was so surprised that he couldn't bear it, so he could only run away.

He's just... so useless...

Guo Zhi really stayed up late that day before returning.When she got home, the boy was already asleep.She took a shower lightly, and lay down gently on the bed, trying not to disturb him as much as possible.
