    Chapter 19 Social Fear

    Shen Li keenly noticed that Chu Xiang was in a bad mood, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

    "It's nothing." Chu Xiang threw the phone aside, "Let's eat."

    Shen Li's eyes darkened, and he gave a soft "um".

    Or that all the annoying people rushed to get together, and that night, Chu Xiang received a call from his mother.

    Through the phone, Chu Xiang could feel that the other party was in a bad mood, and asked, "Mom, why do I hear that you are in a bad mood?"

    Mother Chu said with a smile, "Why, I'm in a good mood."

    Chu Xiang was silent for a moment before saying, "Did my cousin and the others make trouble again?"

    Mother Chu was a little surprised, "How do you know that they went to find you?"

    "No, I guess." His mother was a very optimistic person, and few people could affect her mood. If there were, it would only be the cousin's family.

    Mother Chu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, "It's good if I didn't go to you, the family would be in a bad mood."

    After speaking, he worriedly explained, "Don't let your dad know about this, otherwise he will get angry again."

    Father Chu was originally relatives to his cousin's family, so he took care of each other at first, but only later did he realize that the family didn't know how to be grateful, and he was still scolding him behind his back.

    After that, Father Chu stopped taking care of their family, but he was still angry when he mentioned it.

    Chu Xiang nodded, "Well, don't worry."

    "By the way, what are they looking for you for?"

    Mother Chu sighed, "I want to ask you, it sounds like his son has found a good job. Asking where you are now, you don't need to think about it, and you want to show off in front of you, and finally let me fool you back."

    "Yeah." After Chu Xiang heard a few words of comfort, after hanging up the phone, he didn't take this matter to heart.

    After all, those people are really not worth his concern.

    ——

    The three big men eat every day, and the speed of consumption of ingredients can be imagined, so Shen Li and Chu Xiang have to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables every other day.

    Tang Feng said that he can buy good food to bring back after get off work every day, just need Shen Li to make a list.

    After all, he eats and drinks every day without doing anything, no matter how thick his skin is, he will be embarrassed.

    But his proposal was unsurprisingly rejected by Chu Xiang.

    Although Chu Xiang himself is quite a house, but now it is not enough to bring a Shen Li.

    The other party's current situation is almost like, as long as Chu Xiang doesn't go out, he will try his best not to go out and accompany Chu Xiang at home.

    Now grocery shopping has almost become one of the few opportunities for the other party to get in touch with the outside world.

    Therefore, Chu Xiang felt that he and Shen Li should go together with grocery shopping.

    Staying at home all the time is not conducive to Shen Li's recovery, so he is thinking about how to let the other party have more contact with the outside world.

    This is conducive to the recovery of the other party's memory.

    Until the two entered the supermarket, Chu Xiang was still thinking about this issue.

    Shen Li pushed the shopping cart of the supermarket, turning his head to look at Chu Xiang from time to time, the smile in his eyes never disappeared.

    He enjoyed the experience of going to the supermarket with Xiangxiang, as if...they were a family.

    When he moved to the fresh food area for the third time, even Chu Xiang, who had been thinking about the problem, reacted sluggishly, "I remember that we have already been here."

    He said why the supermarket is so big today, and he couldn't turn around for a long time.

    Found out? Shen Li nervously clenched the shopper's handle, he pretended to be calm and said, "I remembered that I still have something to buy."

    Chu Xiang raised his eyebrows with his arms folded, "What?"

    Shen Li licked the shopping cart with his fingers, "Well...the crayfish haven't been bought yet."

    Chu Xiang, who likes to eat crayfish, "."

    "Okay." Seeing Shen Li carefully selecting crayfish, he coughed lightly, "Buy more."

    A little thirsty.

    Shen Li silently curled the corners of his lips, "Well, good."

    Xiangxiang is really cute!

    Chu Xiang always felt that the other party was laughing at him, and asked with a serious face, "What are you laughing at?"

    Shen Li coughed lightly, "It's nothing, I think the crayfish is cute."

    The aunt on the side immediately said, "Young man, you see that our lobster is cuter than other places, you can go home as a pet!"

    Chu Xiang couldn't help laughing out loud. Auntie was really good at talking nonsense.

    Shen Li on the side blinked, seeing that he was so happy, he asked a little hesitantly, "Then... do you want to raise it?"

    As if Chu Xiangzhen said "raise", he would definitely bring the lobster back to raise it without hesitation.

    How stupid?

    Chu Xiang said angrily, "Keep it up, buy it home and keep it in your stomach."

    Shen Li, "Oh."

    Does Xiangxiang think he is stupid? Shen Li was a little annoyed, and when he spoke to his aunt, his voice was a little dejected, "Then call it five catties of lobster."

    "Okay." Auntie agreed with a smile. Looking at the two handsome guys, she couldn't help but ask, "Hey, do you have any girlfriends? Auntie will introduce you to one?"

    Shen Li's face turned dark immediately, and his tone was firm, "No need."

    "Oh, it's not Auntie blowing, the girl in my hand is the best, after passing this village..." Auntie is still trying to convince the other party.

    Shen Li pursed his lips even tighter, took the crayfish directly from the other party's hand, and dragged Chu Xiang away quickly, his heart beating fast, for fear that Chu Xiang would really be persuaded.

    The aunt didn't react for a while, and seeing the other party leave, she quickly reached out, "Hey—the thing hasn't been weighed yet."

    But Shen was so far away from them that he could still hear it.

    After he was completely away from the other party, Shen Li slowed down and breathed a sigh of relief.

    Chu Xiang was a little amused, "Why are you walking so fast? If you don't know, you think there are wolves chasing you."

    He didn't know that in Shen Xinli, the aunt who tried to introduce Chu Xiang to the object might be more terrifying than the wolf.

    Shen Li, "I...I'm a little socially afraid."

    Chu Xiang didn't expect the other party to say this, so he raised his eyebrows, "Well, if you come across someone who wants to talk to you in the future, you don't need to go, I'll pull you away immediately, how about it?"

    "Really?" Shen Li was obviously very happy after hearing this.

    Chu Xiang coaxed a child, "Well, of course."

    "Anything else to buy?"

    Shen Li shook his head, "No, let's go to the checkout."

    Chu Xiang, "Yeah"

    When the two arrived at the cash register, Chu Xiangcai noticed that the crayfish had not been weighed.

    Shen Li didn't dare to let Chu Xiang go over, he immediately said, "I'll take it back and say, just wait for me here."

    Chu Xiang stretched out his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you a social fear? I'll go."

    "No." Shen Li immediately hid the crayfish behind him and said casually, "I won't talk to her."

    After speaking, for fear that Chu Xiang would still want to go, he quickly took the crayfish to the fresh food area. Chu Xiang looked at his back and smiled silently.

    how so cute.

    I don't know that Shen Li, who was praised as cute by himself, came to the fresh food area, and the aunt was in charge, but this time he didn't give the other party a chance to speak, and left immediately after weighing the lobster.

    It's not that he is really socially afraid, but that he is worried that Xiangxiang alone will meet someone who will be introduced to him again.

    Thinking of this, the speed of his feet was a little faster.

    However, he was still late, Shen Li pursed his lips and looked at the middle-aged man who had a good chat with Chu Xiang, and walked over silently.

    Chu Xiang noticed him coming, and said with a smile, "What are you doing, I'll just say I used to weigh in?"

    Shen Li really regretted it, but he wouldn't let Xiangxiang go alone, he should let Xiangxiang go with him.

    His eyes fell silently on the middle-aged man.

    The middle-aged man, namely Zhang Jianguo smiled, "This is..."

    Chu Xiang took the lead in holding Shen Li's hand, "This is my friend, Shen Li, this is Uncle Zhang."

    Zhang Jianguo seemed to have reacted and swallowed back what he was about to say, "Xiao Shen, I heard Xiao Chu mention you, oh, the young man is really handsome."

    Shen Li held Chu Xiang's hand instead, his mood changed from cloudy to sunny, and replied indifferently, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang."

    After paying the bill, the group went out of the supermarket together.

    Zhang Jianguo opened a bakery next to the community. When passing by, he warmly invited him, "Xiao Shen Xiaochu, come and sit in my shop, just in time to taste the new product I developed."

    Zhang Jianguo can open a bakery entirely because he likes it. He often develops new products, which are very popular with the people around him, so his shop is busy almost every day.

    That is to say, it is working time now, and the store is relatively quiet.

    Knowing the situation, Chu Xiang refused with a smile, "No need for Uncle Zhang, we'll come over to try it some other day."

    "Oh, what are you waiting for another day, you guys wait here." After Zhang Jianguo finished speaking, he walked quickly into the store, "Wait for me to bring you some bread to taste."

    Chu Xiang was helpless, "I really don't need to."

    It's a pity that Zhang Jianguo has already packed a bag of bread very quickly, and he just stuffed it into Chu Xiang's hands, "Don't bother with your uncle so much, just help your uncle and try it for your uncle."

    The other party was so enthusiastic that Chu Xiang could not refuse any more, so he had to say, "Okay, Uncle Zhang, if you need any help, feel free to ask us."

    "What's the point?" Zhang Jianguo laughed, and he patted his head again, "Oh, I almost forgot, don't leave first, wait here?"

    After he finished speaking, he ran back to the store in a hurry, holding a flyer in his hand, "My store's 5th anniversary this weekend, remember to come and join us, and you can order whatever you want at that time!"

    Chu Xiang shook his head and said in his heart that he was not afraid of being too busy.

    It's also good, when they come over, they can still help out, and it just so happens that Shen Li can get in touch with people a lot.

    Thinking of this, he nodded, "Okay, we will definitely come when the time comes."

    Zhang Jianguo smiled and said, "Okay, I've agreed, if I don't come, I'll have to trouble you."

    The two said goodbye to Zhang Jianguo. On the way, Chu Xiang raised the flyer in his hand, "Are you going?"

    Shen Li was very straightforward, "I'll go if you go."

    Chu Xiang was not surprised by this answer, but he suddenly thought of something and smiled, "But you are afraid, why don't I go alone?"

    Shen Li was instantly anxious, "No, you can't go alone."

    There will definitely be many people by then, in case...

    Shen Li didn't even think about it, and grabbed Chu Xiang's hand, "I want to go with you, so I won't be afraid of being with you, Xiang Xiang, I want to go, okay?"

    Chu Xiang raised his eyebrows, ""Xiangxiang"? "

    Shen Li, "!!"

    Oops.
