150 I Went To Fix a Lightbulb (2/2)
Shen Jing glared at Mo Wen then walked angrily into the kitchen. Why was it she felt odd? After going round and about, they still returned to the same point,”Eat, eat, eat. All you know how to do is eat. I'll let you eat till you die.”
Not long after, a table of dishes was laid out. Its aroma filled the air.
Mo Wen just walked to the table and sat down, looking at the table of delicious dishes while nodding his head looking satisfied.
”Eat,” Shen Jing had a deadpan look. She filled a bowl of rice and slammed it heavily on the table in front of Mo Wen.
Mo Wen picked up the chopsticks and was about to grab some food, when he stopped and hesitantly looked at Shen Jing saying, ”You didn't poison it, did you? You said you wanted me to eat till I die?”
Shen Jing grinded her teeth and said, ”You can choose not to eat.” She had half a mind to chase this bastard out of the apartment. To avoid looking at Mo Wen and getting angry, Shen Jing took a bowl of rice and ate sitting alone on the couch.
”You are just eating rice and not having the dishes?” Mo Wen said vaguely with his mouth full of rice and dishes.
Shen Jing sat on the couch with a bowl of rice, furiously stirring the rice as though she had a vendetta against it.
”Mind your own business,” Shen Jing turned her head to the side. She felt lazy to deal with Mo Wen.
”That's right, I forgot something!” Mo Wen suddenly slapped his head as though he had just remembered something. Shen Jing was shocked. She looked at him incredulously.
”I still have something to do. I need to go first, but I'll come again. Oh right, next time prepare more dishes. Today's dishes weren't enough.”
Mo Wen stood up and headed out. His steps were rushed and in a blink of an eye, he was out the door and disappeared from sight.
”You…” Shen Jing stared at Mo Wen's silhouette, unable to say anything for a while.
”That bastard. Next time I will not prepare dinner for him anymore,” Shen Jing grinded her teeth and stomped her feet heavily on the ground, saying. The table full of dishes was left relatively untouched. Even the rice was just two mouthfuls less and the man had gone without a trace.
It was getting dark. In front of the cafeteria, two silhouettes stood waiting at the door for a long time, catching a lot of strange stares.
”Xiaoyou, let's not wait anymore. He probably forgot already.” Wang Xiaofei gently sighed and said.
”Xiaofei, you better go eat first. Don't wait for me, I'm not hungry yet,” Qin Xiaoyou silently lowered her head.
Wang Xiaofei did not understand what Qin Xiaoyou was holding out for. It had been around an hour and a half. The cafeteria was almost empty. If she waited any longer, there wouldn't be anything left to eat, ”I told you we shouldn't have waited. With Shen Jing such a beauty as company, why would he think of you? Don't be foolish. Let's go eat. Why let ourselves starve for a guy like him?”
”He will come,” Qin Xiaoyou bit her lip, clutching her small hands together. She believed that he would come, because she said she would wait at the entrance of the cafeteria for him.
”You're obsessed. I don't understand you.”
Wang Xiaofei really felt like slapping Qin Xiaoyou in the head to wake her up. How could a woman who fell in love have her IQ plummet so low.
”Xiaofei, just go eat first. Don't wait for me, okay?” Qin Xiaoyou's voice had a trace of tearfulness in it. Rows of tears started flowing down from her eyes and silently fell to the ground.
Wang Xiaofei sighed softly. She didn't say anything anymore. She just held Qin Xiaoyou's hand and stood beside her silently.
They waited for another half an hour; the cafeteria was almost empty now. Qin Xiaoyou and Wang Xiaofei were still standing around the entrance all alone like two statues.
”Xiaofei, let's go to eat. We'll go to the fifth floor. I will treat you.” After a long pause, Qin Xiaoyou wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes quietly, then she held Wang Xiaofei's hand and walked into the cafeteria, dejected.
Wang Xiaofei patted Qin Xiaoyou on the back of her hand, but she didn't know what to say. To eat on the fifth floor of the cafeteria required a few hundred bucks. With Xiaoyou's family background, it was a little hard on her wallet. However, she knew that today Qin Xiaoyou was not in a good mood.
”Wait! I still haven't eaten. Bring me along.” From afar, a figure flashed past and moved around hundred feet in an instance. In a blink of an eye, he had appeared right behind Qin Xiaoyou. His speed was shocking, but fortunately nobody saw him along the way. The person who spoke was none other than Mo Wen. He stood behind Qin Xiaoyou, rubbing his hands, smiled awkwardly and said.
Qin Xiaoyou suddenly spun around. Looking at the person behind her, her tears started flowing again.
”Don't cry. Don't cry. Just now I was… I was a little busy…” Facing Qin Xiaoyou's tears, Mo Wen did not know what to do. Halfway eating at Shen Jing's place, he suddenly remembered that Qin Xiaoyou had said that she would wait for him to have dinner at the cafeteria. Based on his understanding of Qin Xiaoyou, he knew she would surely have waited for him. She would keep waiting until he came, so he didn't hold back and dashed here.
”Just now Miss Shen Jing wanted to see me… her house lightbulb was broken, so I helped her fix it…” Mo Wen looked left and right, laughing dryly as he explained.
”I know you are very busy. You're probably hungry. Let's eat,” Qin Xiaoyou lowered her head, quietly hugging onto Mo Wen's arm and walking into the cafeteria.
”Yes, let's eat. Fifth floor, my treat. Just order any delicacy you want,” Mo Wen waved his hand, feeling generous, and strode towards the upper floors of the cafeteria. He was more than happy that Qin Xiaoyou didn't get in a strop with him. He silently breathed a sigh of relief and walked upstairs gleefully.
”Before you lie, wipe the rice from the corner of your mouth!” Wang Xiaofei purposedly walked behind Mo Wen, grinding her teeth as she whispered this in his ear. Haven't eaten yet? Only a fool would believe him. Fixing a lightbulb? She had never heard of fixing a lightbulb requiring two hours to complete.
”Uh…”
Mo Wen tripped over himself, nearly falling face first on the ground.
