Chapter 26 A Past Event

 More than an hour later, I turned over and lay next to Xiao Ai, feeling a little complicated.

 Have only met Xiao Ai a few times, and have no feelings for her at all. He just regards her as Shen Rou's substitute.

 Xiao Ai leaned against me, her hot body pressed against my chest: "Brother Chen, I'm a little hungry, let's order takeout."

 I took the mobile phone on the bedside table and half I put my arm around Xiao Ai's shoulders: "What do you want to eat?"

   "I want to eat grilled sausage!"

   I didn't expect that Xiao Ai would only order one thing, so I was not stingy and ordered more barbecue and drinks.

 Just after ordering takeout, Xiao Ai asked me for a kiss again. I held her in my arms and kissed her for several minutes before we separated.

I have always had a question in my mind, so I couldn't help but ask: "You haven't known me for a long time, so why did you agree to come here with me?"

I don't know. Maybe it's because I think you're a nice person! You have good eyesight." Xiao Ai's answer was very vague and did not give me the answer I wanted.

  "What about you and those little yellow guys?" I asked a more sensitive question.

  "I just played with them, but I have never been with them!" Xiao Ai's tone suddenly became serious.

 He added, "They don't even have money to eat. Besides, I don't like them either. Don't take me so casually."

 I didn't expect Xiao Ai to see through my mind. After a while, the takeaway was delivered.

 Because it is a small hotel and there is no food delivery robot, I had to go to the front desk myself.

 While picking up food, I bumped into my colleague He Shiyu, who happened to be delivering food to this hotel.

  "Chen Hao, what a coincidence?" He Shiyu greeted me with a smile.

  I was wearing hotel slippers, and anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that I was here to book a room.

   "It's quite a coincidence!"

  "You came with your girlfriend?" He Shiyu asked with a bit of gossip.

  "Yes!" I could only respond bravely.

 "Then you guys have fun, I'm going to deliver the food." He Shiyu left the hotel after saying that.

 I walked back with my takeaway, thinking that being bumped into by He Shiyu would be no problem.

  Back in the hotel room, Xiao Ai got off the bed wearing a bath towel and saw the takeaway I got back. She was a little excited: "Why did you order so much?"

  "It's not too much!" I put the takeout on the table.

  Looking at Xiao Ai excitedly unpacking, I suddenly felt a little envious of her age.

  You can enjoy life without any worries, unlike me, who started delivering food non-stop as soon as I entered society, without even a holiday.

 Xiao Ai picked up a piece of grilled sausage and took a bite, eating it with gusto.

 When I checked out, the look in the eyes of the two waiters at the front desk was very unforgettable for me.

  Of course, the deposit was also deducted from the box of condoms that was used.

 Walking to the door of the hotel, I said to Xiao Ai: "I've called a taxi for you! I'll treat you to dinner another day."

 Xiao Ai kissed me on the face: "Then I'll go back first!"

· When passing by the Half-Awake Bar, I found that the door was extremely noisy, with many people gathered around it, and there was also a piercing fire alarm sound coming from inside.

 A group of people were rushing out of it in a panic, shouting, "Run!"

  I subconsciously tightened the brakes and stopped on the side of the road to watch: "What happened?"

  Several bar staff were shouting at the door to maintain order and reassure customers: "Don't panic, everyone! It's a false alarm from the smoke detector, not a real fire!"

 But the scene got a little out of control. Some people knocked down decorative signs on the roadside, and others squeezed off their shoes.

  The piercing whistle of the fire truck came from far away, and soon, two red fire trucks stopped at the door of the bar.

 The uniformed firefighters quickly got out of the car, set up a cordon, and began routine inspections and treatments.

 Although there is no open flame, this level of false alarms and safety lapses is enough for them to drink a pot.

      I heard the people watching the excitement muttering: "If we do this, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape if we close down for rectification!"

    Looking at the chaos, I recalled that three years ago, at the door of this bar, I meddle in one more thing.

 I had just finished delivering my last order that night, and when I passed by on an electric donkey, I saw a woman in a sequined dress slumped on the curb.

 Several men with ill intentions were surrounding her, trying to pull her up, saying, "Sister, you must have had too much to drink, I will take you home."

 By some strange coincidence, I parked the car and rushed over, pushing the men away.

 The conflict broke out quickly. During the pushing and shoving, someone took out the knife. After I was stabbed, I didn’t feel any pain at the time. I picked up half of the bricks on the side of the road and shot one of them.

  I clutched my lower back and staggered around, wanting to see how the woman was doing, but she was already gone.

  Even I don’t know her name, let alone what she looks like.

I had already forgotten about this incident, but when I passed by here today, I thought about it again.

   Back to the rental house, he saw Lin Xiaoyu walking out of the bedroom in pajamas: "Why did you work overtime so late today?"

   "I don't want to make more money and buy a house and a car early." This reason is very reasonable.

  "Don't work overtime until so late in the future." Lin Xiaoyu was very concerned.

  "Are you caring about me?" I was a little excited.

  "As a medical staff, I just want to remind you that overwork can lead to sudden death!" After Lin Xiaoyu finished speaking, he returned to his room.

  I can feel that Lin Xiaoyu still hopes that I can make a difference.

  After finishing the instant noodles in a few mouthfuls, I got up and took a shower.

 In the bathroom, I scrubbed my whole body carefully, especially my neck and chest, areas that are easily left with marks.

 Shampooed three times, for fear that the smell of little love would remain.

 After a while, I was lying on the bed, my mind in chaos.

  The scene of meeting Shen Rou today is lingering.

 I once thought she was the only light in my dark life, a person worthy of my doing everything I could to protect her.

  How ridiculous, it was just my wishful thinking from beginning to end.

 My heart felt like it had been stabbed hard by something, feeling hollow and painful. The last bit of self-deceptive protection was completely shattered.

  I think of Xiao Ai again, the innocent girl. I don't know if what I did just now hurt her.

At this moment, the phone suddenly vibrated. It was a message from Xiao Ai: "Brother Chen, I am very happy today."

  "I will study hard and learn my skills from now on, got it?" I replied.

  "I'm not happy now, and you're preaching again." Xiao Ai's message was followed by a crooked expression.

 Looking back on the past, if I had studied hard, I might have been able to get into a better university and study a better major.

 Perhaps I can find a good job now instead of being a delivery boy.

  The two things I encountered today will probably affect my mood for a long time.
