my you

Chapter 13 Candlelight Dinner at the Grilled Fish Shop

After listening for a long time, Lu Ding probably understood why this person likes to listen to piano music.

Even if it is mixed in the orchestra, the clarity, richness, and ups and downs of the piano can give the whole music a finishing touch.

"Fang Sheng." Lu Ding turned his head and called him softly.

"Ah."

"It's okay, I'll call you, I think your name sounds nice."

"..."

Just after the concert ended, Lu Ding received a call from his mother.

Compared to being domineering some time ago, Lu Ding felt that he could easily restrain his temper now, just like now.

"mom."

"Ding Ding," on the other end of the phone, although Ms. Liu deliberately calmed down her tone, she couldn't hide the trace of sexual desire, "How are you doing these days?"

Lu Ding breathed a sigh of relief, "That's it, I borrowed money from my sister, and I didn't starve to death."

"How much money does your sister have as a student who just took part in an internship? All right, I'll give you some money." Mom paused and asked, "Have you participated in the recent national financial literacy competition?"

"Participated, the day after tomorrow is the provincial competition." Lu Ding followed Fang Sheng while making a phone call. There were too many people and his legs were lame. Afraid of getting separated from Fang Sheng, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the hem of his clothes, hugging him with a cane. In his arms, he walked out bouncing and bouncing.

"Mom and Dad are busy recently, so I don't have time to take care of you. Let's go and watch it at the national finals."

Lu Ding said "um", hung up the phone, and then received a transfer of 1 yuan from Ms. Liu.

"Fang Sheng," Lu Ding put his phone in his pocket, "Brother is rich, can I treat you to dinner?"

Fang Sheng led him out of the theater bouncingly: "What do you want to eat?"

Lu Ding thought for a while, "There is a Malatang restaurant nearby that is especially delicious."

"You're so picky." Fang gave him a blank look, "The rich young master invites people to dinner, so he invites Malatang?"

Lu Ding thought about it again: "There is also a very delicious grilled fish shop."

"lead the way."

This grilled fish shop is an old shop that has been around for more than ten years.

Lu Ding studied in the attached primary school when he was in elementary school, and this grilled fish shop opened at the entrance of the attached primary school, and he moved here later.

When he was young, his family didn't give him too much pocket money, so he saved about a month to come here for a meal with An Shaowen.

Haven't been here for many years.

When he opened the curtain, the familiar smell in his memory hit his face.

The burnt fish skin has a hint of fishy smell, coupled with the unique sauce of this shop, just the smell is enough to make the mouth water for three thousand feet.

"Boss, a grilled fish, about five catties, do you have it?" Lu Ding looked at the menu that hadn't been changed for many years, and ordered the dishes skillfully.

The boss wiped his oil-spattered glasses, "Is it Lu Ding?"

Lu Ding nodded in surprise, the boss remembered him after not coming for so many years.

"Then the one next to him is Shaowen? It doesn't look like it." The boss turned his gaze to Fang Sheng who was beside him again, and looked him up and down.

Lu Ding took two cans of Sprite from the shelf next to him, "No, An Shaowen starts school today, and he's busy, so he can't get out."

The boss said "Oh" twice, "I still remember you two brats. You used to come every month. When you came, you would order a two-jin small fish to eat. While eating, you discussed your homework and quarreled a lot. times. I have never seen such a hard-working student, and it has a profound impact on the two of you. By the way, which university did you all go to?"

Lu Ding really admired the eloquence of the boss, "I got into Xingda University, and An Shaowen went to the police academy."

Seeing that the grilled fish was ready and served, Lu Ding didn't want to talk nonsense with the boss, so he dragged Fang Sheng to sit in the corner.

Fang Sheng sandwiched a piece of meat, under the burnt yellow skin was snow-white fish, still juiced, when it was put into the mouth, the fresh fragrance remained on the lips and teeth, the skin was crispy and refreshing, and the meat was firm and chewy.

Lu Ding opened the jar of Sprite, raised his head and took a sip, and also ate a piece of meat.

The taste did not change.

"Is it delicious?" Lu Ding asked.

Fang Sheng nodded, "Unexpectedly, you loved studying so much when you were a child. You did your homework while eating, didn't the oil drip onto your homework?"

"I've been there before, and I could smell the smell of fish when I opened my homework the next day. The teacher always beat me and An Shaowen for this. But we did our homework well, so she didn't say anything." Lu Ding said Before he swallowed it clean, he took another piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

Fang Sheng was still eating slowly, looking up at the way he was eating, he couldn't help laughing, "No one will compete with you, eat slowly."

Lu Ding paused, and slowed down his movements, "That's right, without that kid An Shaowen, I can feel much more at ease when I eat."

Fang Sheng took a piece of meat and put it on Lu Ding's plate: "Does he always grab food from you?"

"When he was young, his family was not as rich as it is now, and he rarely had these delicious foods, so we both rushed to eat when we ate together." Lu Ding said, "Later, An Shaowen became the rich second generation, but he It’s still digging and searching, I’m used to it after so many years.”

Fang Sheng listened intently, "You two have a good relationship."

"That's right, An Shaowen is my best friend." He peeled off the skin of the fish, picked out a piece of tender meat and put it in the Fangsheng bowl. "It's not easy to have this kind of relationship."

"I see."

"As a person, I don't want to be sincere when I get along with others. I'm afraid that my friends won't pass the test of my mother." Lu Ding choked up, "So, in fact, I haven't had any friends for so many years. An Shaowen and Yu Zhang is the only two left, the others were driven away by my mother."

"What about me?" Fang Sheng asked cautiously.

Lu Ding looked up at Fang Sheng, "My mother is sure to be satisfied with this model of yours. You are handsome, good at studying, have no bad hobbies, and you are also a very good athlete."

In fact, it goes without saying that his mother is satisfied, even Lu Ding is very satisfied.

Fang Sheng can be said to be a perfect person.This boy is full of gentleness, but sometimes his mouth is a bit poisonous, and he always argues with him.

"I'd rather be friends with you." Lu Ding stared at him involuntarily.

The yellowed lights of the grilled fish shop cast a soft filter on the food and people.

It tastes like a candlelight dinner.

Fang Sheng noticed the undisguised gaze from the other side, and continued to eat his food as if nothing happened, and asked: "The day after tomorrow is the final, how are you preparing?"

Lu Ding quickly withdrew his gaze and pointed to himself: "Me? You don't have to worry about it at all, your leg brother's strength is amazing. But you, with 96 points, can you pass this level? I'm still waiting to talk to you In the final showdown."

Fang Sheng smiled and pointed at him, "98 points, I'm waiting for you too."

The provincial competition was different from the school selection. The examination room was moved to the studio, and the whole process was broadcast live.

Likewise, whenever someone turns in a paper, the score will be shown in fact.

Only 100 students from 500 colleges and universities in the province were finally selected to participate in this provincial competition, and the competition pressure was very high.

Lu Ding sat on the backstage stool and shook his legs. After a few days of rest, his feet no longer hurt, but he still limped a little when he walked and couldn't exert himself.

Seeing Fang Sheng come in, he invited him to sit next to him.

I've been concentrating on preparing for the exam recently, so I haven't talked to him much.

Fang Sheng's eyes were still in the crowd, and he heard Lu Ding ask him cheaply: "Are you nervous?"

Fang Sheng shook his head, "I'm looking for my fellow villagers."

"Huh?" Lu Ding was a little surprised, "You still have fellow villagers in Xingchuan?"

"Yes, he has been admitted to the police academy. I just found out yesterday that he also participated in this competition." Fang Sheng finally found the man in the crowd, and waved to him, "Su Hui, here."

Lu Ding looked at the person walking towards them, and estimated that his height was about the same as him, but this face was frosty, who was he showing his ugly face to?

Su Hui gave a slight "hmm", sat next to Fang Sheng, and began to chat with Fang Sheng casually, but basically Fang Sheng was leading the chat.

In comparison, Fang Sheng is still willing to chat with old friends.

Lu Ding was a little upset when he was left alone.

He managed to find a place to interject and asked, "Isn't your police academy a month of military training? Are you on vacation?"

Su Hui hated this kind of interruption for no reason, and his face turned dark, "No, I'm asking for leave."

"Then do you know An Shaowen?" Lu Ding asked again.

"Yes, my roommate."

When Lu Ding wanted to continue talking, Fang Sheng turned his head and winked at him, probably to tell him not to say any more.

The corner of Lu Ding's mouth twitched.

If you don't say it, don't say it.

The female voice of the system came from the loudspeaker: "Hello, candidates from Province S, this is the provincial competition site of the National Financial Knowledge Contest. Today's exam schedule is as follows: the first round, the non-professional group competition. The exam time is one hour .Examination method, paperless computer-based examination. There are a total of 10 multiple-choice questions in this test, with a full score of [-] points. One point is awarded for each correct answer. In the end, ten people with the highest test scores will be selected to enter the national finals. The second round , the professional group competition... Now there are still [-] minutes before the non-professional group exam, please enter the arena in order, choose a suitable seat to sit down, and prepare for the exam."

People around got up and went to the studio one after another. Lu Ding wanted to wait for Fang Sheng to go with him, but Fang Sheng ignored him and entered the studio with Su Hui.

Why do you want to get angry?

Lu Ding stared at Su Hui closely, and could see that the man's face was bright and cloudy for a while. He didn't know what happened to him, and he frowned and pointed at Fang Sheng.

It's very frustrating.

Lu Ding originally followed the two of them far away, but when he saw Su Hui raising his hand to slap Fang Sheng on the forehead, he rushed over and got caught between the two of them.

When I ran over just now, I could vaguely hear what Su would say about "waste all previous efforts" and "end it as soon as possible".

Lu Ding pushed Su Hui away, feeling uncomfortable looking at his black face, and didn't know how Fang Sheng became friends with him.

"Get up and drive." Su Hui said in a bad tone.

Lu Ding was speechless, still standing in front of Fang Sheng.

He looked back at the man, his eyes were red, as if he had cried.

"Why did you mess with him?" Lu Ding's tone was even worse, with strong irritability.

Unexpectedly, Fang Sheng pushed him away, "It's okay, it has nothing to do with you, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Are you okay?" Lu Ding asked.

Fang Sheng nodded, "It's okay. Let's go, the exam is about to start."

Lu Ding followed Fang Sheng dubiously, he had clearly seen his eyes red just now, how could it be all right, but he himself said he didn't need to worry about it.

Really bad.

Lu Ding found the seat next to Fang Sheng and sat down, glancing at him from time to time.

The system voice came again, "Attention all candidates, the exam will start in 5 minutes, please take the exam honestly, the whole exam will be broadcast live, no matter what small actions you make, it will be marked as a violation, and this exam will be terminated immediately. So Candidates, please pay attention to the order of the examination room and cherish the opportunity of the examination."

Lu Ding shifted his gaze from Fang Sheng to his computer screen, the exam is more important right now.

Not long after it started, someone was arrested.

"The candidate with the seat number 397 looked left and right during the exam. According to the exam regulations, his exam in this field will be terminated immediately."

Logically speaking, in this case, the test paper would be automatically handed in. Lu Ding looked up at the big screen, and sure enough, 28 points.

Lu Ding still wanted to take a sneak peek at Fang Sheng.

It stands to reason that Fang Sheng didn't cry just because he was born with this temper.

Before he glanced over, the invigilator's eyes were fixed on his face.

Forget it, forget it, don't watch it if you don't let peeking.
