Braised Pork

The two went downstairs, Lu Zhou was discussing the difficulties Fang Qiang encountered in writing code.

After leaving the corridor, they met Ye Qingchen again. She was carrying a vegetable basket in her hand, apparently she had just bought some vegetables and was going back to cook.

Lu Zhou said hello humbly, and took out ten dollars from his wallet, "Hello here is the money form the beer"

Ye Qingchen waved her hand quickly and said fastly, "No no I really can't take this money and You're welcome."

Seeing that Ye Qingchen was so evasive, Lu Zhou couldn't be more hypocritical, and he said, "That's ok. Why are you closing the store so early, are you going home?"

Ye Qingchen whispered, "Well, I have to go back to school later, so I won't open the store today."

Lu Zhou was little surprised as It turned out that Ye Qingchen was still a student, and probably worked part-time as a cashier on weekends, but he didn't think much about it.

"Oh I didn't know about that, I am going in a near by restaurant with my freind to have dinner, since you're busy." After that Lu Zhou and Fang Qiang prepared to leave together.

"Wait a minute..." Ye Qingchen stopped Lu Zhou while hesitating.

"Mr. Lu, if you don't mind, can i invite you and your friend to lunch."

After hearing this, Lu Zhou felt strange. After all from his first impression, Ye Qingchen didn't know him very well, he really didn't feel that there relationship between them so good, that she would invite them to lunch.

Lu Zhou saw Ye Qingchen holding a portable vegetable basket, and then said, "Thanks for your help for the last night. I didn't have time to thank you back then."

It's not surprising for Lu Zhou when she showed her gratitude towards him. The meal which Ye Qingchen made for Lu Zhou was a favor for helping her last night.

After figuring out what was going on her mind, Lu Zhou took Ye Qingchen's vegetable basket and walked in front, "Okay, then we have to try Chef Ye's cooking."

Ye Qingchen was a little shy, "Don't laugh at me if it's not good."

Lu Zhou also said haha, "we are not that qicky eater, and we will make sure to finish it for you."

Fang Qiang, who has been watching the conversation between the two, was little confused, and said, "I don't understand what is this all about?"

Lu Zhou also turned his head and called Fang Qiang, "Let's go, Fang Qiang, didn't you hear that we are invited for lunch?"

And Ye Qingchen also nodded.

After going upstairs, Lu Zhou realized that Ye Qingchen also lived upstairs in the same apartment, "So you live upstairs near my unit."

Ye Qingchen opened the door and replied, "Yeah. I have been living here for a long time."

"That's weird, I haven't met you before."

"I usually only come back on weekends. I have seen you and your girlfriend."

When Lu Zhou heard it, he snorted, "I see, maybe I didn't pay much attention to it, haha."

When the three of them entered through the door, Ye Qingchen took the vegetable basket from Lu Zhou's hand, and said "I'll go to the kitchen, you two sit here in the living room and wait for the food here."

Lu Zhou replied ok, then he sat on the sofa, his eyes were looking around unconsciously.

Ye Qingchen house was same as Lu Zhou. It is one room and one living room. House was cleaned very well. There is a faint fragrance in the air, revealing the breath of a girl.

"Well, it's purely a brain supplement."

There are several college textbooks on the coffee table, and there are notebooks densely written on the side. Lu Zhou picked up the textbooks and looked at them briefly. It was some design-related textbooks.

He flipped through it for a while, but he couldn't really see it, so he looked out again. There was an easel on the edge of the balcony. On the drawing paper, there was a picture of a woman, but it was obviously not finished, and the figure was not obvious.

When he looked out of the balcony again, the fluttering clothes made Lu Zhou jump.

"See no evil, see no evil... But this Ye Qingchen is a good student of literature and art." Lu Zhou thought as he retracted his gaze.

He glanced at the kitchen again, Ye Qingchen was busy, and she looked like she had cooked often.

But Fang Qiang suddenly stabbed Lu Zhou with his elbow, only to see his expression full of laughter, "Brother Lu, I understand why my sister-in-law left you."

Lu Zhou, "Huh?"

Fang Qiang said with a heartbroken expression, said "Hey, Brother Lu. Although Senior Sister Wen figure and appearance are not as good as the one in the kitchen, you should have not left sister in law because of this."

Lu Zhou was an explosive chestnut, "What nonsense, are you telling right now?"

Lu Zhou realized what he was thinking and said to him, "Stop taking nonsense."

But Fang Qiang was not think about what Lu Zhou was telling him, he was thinking he had got the main reason of breakup between them, "Tsk tsk, reveal the truth, how can you be like that."

In the kitchen, Ye Qingchen, who was peeling green onions, couldn't stop blushing, after listening what they where talking about.

Lu Zhou ignored Fang Qiang steadily, and casually flipped through Ye Qingchen's textbook.

Ye Qingchen was busy in the kitchen for a while, when food was ready she brought dishes to the table one after another.

Lu Zhou looked at it, three dishes and one soup, fried cabbage, fried beans, braised pork, and tomato and egg soup, all the dishes are commonly made in home.

Ye Qingchen brought rice to the two while letting the two of them come to the table for dinner, while she went to the kitchen to pick up the kitchen waste.

Lu Zhou looked at Ye Qingchen and didn't move his chopsticks, while Fang Qiang was little rude and started eating first.

"This kid..."

Two minutes later, Lu Zhou waited until Ye Qingchen finished packing, and she noticed that Lu Zhou was still waiting for her and didn't move his chopsticks, and said, "You're welcome."

Just when Lu Zhou was about to move his chopsticks, Fang Qiang unknowingly whether his brain was kept outside the door or what, and he said, "Ah you're so polite, braised pork made by my sister-in-law is so delicious, and I was not able to control my hand and started to eat first."

Ye Qingchen, "..."

Lu Zhou glared at Fang Qiang, Fang Qiang also realized the slip of the tongue, and quickly changed his words, "No, I mean it's more delicious than braised pork made by my ex-sister-in-law..."

Lu Zhou, "..."

Fang Qiang, "Uh no, forget it, what I just speak."

Lu Zhou could only sort the current scenario and said to Ye Qingchen, "Don't mind, Qiang mouth is not reliable, don't take it seriously."

Ye Qingchen also smiled slightly, expressing that she understood.

While they where eating, Ye Qingchen and Lu Zhou didn't say much. At the side of the room, there was only the sound of chewing food, and the atmosphere was very quiet.

As for Fang Qiang, he was terrible from the beginning to the end.

After all, he was just mixing rice, and was talking nonsense for no reason in the middle there talking, so he didn't dare to disturb them now.

After lunch, Ye Qingchen also said directly, "I'm going to school", obviously wanting to evict guests.

Naturally, Lu Zhou and Fang Qiang couldn't stay here any longer, so they said goodbye to Ye Qingchen and left her house.

When they went out, Lu Zhou was shocked when he saw the expression of Fang Qiang face, and said "I'm not saying you talked nonsense, it was just little embarrassing."

Fang Qiang said, "Brother Lu let go now finish the rest of the remaining work."

"Okay, it's not a big deal. The most important thing now is the project. As I have work in the afternoon so you have to finish the program today."

"Okay, Brother Lu, just relax."
