Chapter 89 When Wang Jingzhe and Mao Xiaocao...
"Look at this beautiful night..." Actually, there is another sentence behind this sentence that Wang Jingzhe did not say. What he wanted to say was: "The night is beautiful, and people are even more beautiful."
After coming out of the wilderness in the eastern suburbs, Wang Jingzhe and Mao Xiaocao took a taxi back to the city of Chang'an. It was almost midnight. Mao Xiaocao leaned his chin against the car window, staring at the flashing street lights and neon signs outside, wondering what he was thinking.
Perhaps because he felt the atmosphere between the two was rather dull and awkward, Wang Jingzhe asked for conversation: "What are you looking at? What are you thinking about?"
Mao Xiaocao sighed and said, "I was wondering if you're going to trick me later."
"Ah?" Wang Jingzhe looked like an idiot and did not react.
Mao Xiaocao sighed again and said, "If you're trying to trick me, I'm wondering whether I should kick you so hard that you can't take care of yourself for the rest of your life, or just walk away in anger?"
"Ah?" Wang Jingzhe asked in confusion, "Why did you hit me?"
Mao Xiaocao: “…”
The taxi driver glanced at the young couple behind him in the rearview mirror and shook his head helplessly, with an expression on his face as if he was reminiscing about the past when he had once written glorious stories and was young.
More than 20 minutes later, the taxi drove to the door of a hotel. Mao Xiaocao pushed open the door and got out. After Wang Jingzhe paid the fare and was about to get off, the driver turned around and called him.
"Dude, let me tell you something. When you go to the hotel front desk to give your ID card, draw a circle on it with your index finger. Remember to turn your back to the girl."
"What does it mean?"
The driver blinked and said, "It's all based on experience. This trick is universal in all hotels in Chang'an. Just use it. When you're done, just thank me in your heart. I can help you get here too."
Wang Jingzhe got out of the car suspiciously. When he entered the hotel, Mao Xiaocao was standing in front of the bar, humming a little tune boredly, with his head down and fiddling with his fingers.
"Hello, sir, miss, do you want to book a room?"
"Yes, where is your ID card?" Wang Jingzhe took out his ID card and asked Xiaocao again.
After taking Xiaocao's ID card, Wang Jingzhe handed it to the front desk clerk. He suddenly remembered what the driver had told him before he got off the car, and then he drew a circle on the ID card with his index finger.
The waiter immediately smiled, with an expression that said "I understand", and winked at Wang Jingzhe implicitly , meaning, don't worry, I understand.
Wang Jingzhe: “???”
After a moment, the waiter looked at the computer and said, "I'm sorry, sir, our hotel is full and there is only one king-size bed room left."
"Swish, swish" Wang Jingzhe blinked in confusion, his brain froze instantly, and then he heard the sound of grinding teeth behind him.
"You're trying to trick me? I treat you as a brother, and you're actually trying to trick me..." Miss Xiaocao gritted her teeth, grabbed Wang Jingzhe's collar and pulled him over, poking her finger at his chest and saying, "Haha, with your IQ, you're still trying to trick me? If we were racing in IQ, I'd let you run 200 meters first and then I'd be able to overtake you on a curve. How can you trick me, you idiot!"
Wang Jingzhe continued in confusion, "No, the hotel has no rooms. It's not my fault. Who needs to have a fortune-teller before staying in a hotel?"
"You dare not admit it and still keep talking? Why did you draw a circle on the ID card? Do you think I don't know this routine?"
Wang Jingzhe understood instantly, covered his forehead and said speechlessly: "Don't say it, it's too embarrassing"
Ten minutes later, Wang Jingzhe and Mao Xiaocao arrived at the guest rooms upstairs. Of course, there were two rooms, with doors facing each other.
Wang Jingzhe pushed the door open with a creak and rushed into the room like .
Outside the door, Mao Xiaocao smiled and said, "Silly bird, you are such a pig."
"Plop" Wang Jingzhe threw himself on the bed after entering the room, buried his face in the quilt, kicked his legs back and forth and said, "How embarrassing, how embarrassing!"
In the room opposite, Mao Xiaocao closed the door, went to the bathroom, turned on the faucet to run hot water, and hummed a little ditty again. This time the ditty was much clearer: "Boys, don't try to guess what a girl is thinking... Don't guess, don't guess... Boys, don't try to guess what a girl is thinking. If you keep guessing, you will fall in love with her."
After a night passed, the sun was already high in the sky. Since he had slept late the night before, he got up late today as well. Wang Jingzhe called Xiaocao girl twice, but she scolded him back with her words "I want to have a beauty sleep" and "Are you a pig?"
It was almost noon when Mao Xiaocao got up. After washing and dressing herself, she came out of the room. When she saw Wang Jingzhe again, there was no change on her face, as if the little incident yesterday had disappeared after a good sleep.
Wang Jingzhe pretended to be calm and asked, "Did you sleep well?"
Xiaocao rolled his eyes.
The two came out of the hotel, and Mao Xiaocao asked, "It's time to eat. What do you want to eat for lunch?"
"There's a Pao Mo restaurant that's delicious. I've eaten there twice before when I came to Chang'an." Wang Jingzhe didn't give Mao Xiaocao a chance to object. He pulled her into a car and told the driver to go to the old city of Chang'an. Then they went into an alley and found an old restaurant.
"Two bowls of steamed buns, with more chili," Wang Jingzhe shouted.
After a while, two bowls of Pao Mo came up. Wang Jingzhe picked up the chopsticks, said "eat, eat, eat" a few times, and then buried his head in work. He picked up the Pao Mo with chopsticks and stuffed his mouth with it.
Mao Xiaocao picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks, slowly put it into his mouth, and chewed it slowly. Wang Jingzhe swallowed the food in his mouth with a "gulp" sound, and asked in surprise: "Don't you like it? It's delicious."
Mao Xiaocao looked at him seriously and said, "I beg you, next time you invite a woman to dinner, can you ask her opinion first? With so many peppers, do you want my face to be covered with acne? With so much oil, how much weight do you want me to gain? Shouldn't you ask first, do you like Western food, Chinese food, Sichuan cuisine, or Cantonese cuisine?"
Wang Jingzhe blinked his eyes and said seriously, "I just think the food here is delicious..."
Mao Xiaocao was helpless and sighed deeply, mumbling in his mind: "There is still a long way to go, but I still need to be disciplined."
After a while, Wang Jingzhe suddenly discovered that Miss Xiaocao was eating even more happily than him, and the bowl of steamed buns was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“I thought you didn’t like it.”
"It's not that I don't like eating, I was just telling you a truth."
After Mao Xiaocao finished eating, he wiped his mouth modestly and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Wang Jingzhe thought for a long time and said, "I don't know yet, what about you?"
Mao Xiaocao also thought for a long time and said: "I don't know either."
There was a sudden silence between the two of them. Then Wang Jingzhe suddenly opened his mouth in an embarrassed manner, but after a long while of grunting, no sound came out.
Little Grass Girl squinted her eyes and asked, "Are you trying to ask me to accompany you to travel the world with a sword?"
Wang Jingzhe's eyes flickered and he said, "I also wanted to travel the world with a sword, but... I failed the security check."
"Are you a pig?" Mao Xiaocao sighed sadly.
