Volume 5: Qingming Chapter 11 Trash Can
Jiang You took a shower, changed his clothes, and walked downstairs in slippers.
Guan Nuo was sitting at a long table, looking down at his phone. He raised his head when he heard footsteps.
"When are you going to school?" Jiang You asked.
"next week."
Jiang You walked past Guan Nuo, went into the kitchen, took out two cans of ice cola from the refrigerator, opened one first, drank half of it in one breath, then picked up the other can and walked back to the store.
He put the Coke in front of Guan Nuo and sat down opposite him.
"Brother Jiang."
"What is it?"
Guan Nuo put his phone aside and asked, "Have you been to the office recently?"
Jiang You thought for a moment and said, "I went there once about a week ago. What happened?"
"Is the section chief here?"
“Yes.”
"Did she mention me?"
Jiang You looked at Guan Nuo without saying anything.
"That's not what I meant. It's just that, me, my enemy, the one who killed my father, Sun Xiu who gave the order, and Hu Yuefeng behind him, they are all dead. I seem to have taken revenge, but..." Guan Nuo's eyes were a little confused, and he said, "It's like I had a dream, and then..."
"It doesn't feel real?" Jiang You helped him say it.
Guan Nuo nodded, unbuttoned the ring and drank a sip of Coke, "I have thought about it and fantasized about it many times. When I stand in front of my enemy, what should I say..."
"Are you still planning to make Sun Xiu and Hu Yuefeng kneel down in front of you and cry and admit their mistakes?"
"No, I just don't know what to do in the future," Guan Nuo took another sip of Coke, "Uncle Zhuang said he would take me to Yanjing, maybe for training or something, but I don't know if I should continue in the Special Operations Department."
He lowered his eyes. "In this small world, I am just a drag. What I know seems to be of no use."
"Have you discussed this with your mother?" Jiang You asked.
Guan Nuo shook his head. "I know her. She definitely doesn't want me to continue in the Special Operations Department. Uncle Zhuang said that Section Chief Tang will stay. I think, if I...if I...because they want me to be in charge of the Special Operations Department in the future, then..."
"She will stay for only two more years."
"Just two years?"
"Don't you have any ideas yourself?"
"I, I don't know," Guan Nuo shook his head and looked outside the store. "I don't have anyone to talk to. I can only talk to you, Brother Jiang. When I was in the small world, I fainted as soon as I entered. When I woke up, I saw Uncle Zhuang and Sun Xiu sitting face to face. I vaguely heard what they said. Uncle Zhuang wanted to cooperate with Sun Xiu. Later he told me that it was just to get out, but..."
"He's right."
"I know, but I want to take revenge in an upright manner. I know I have no right to say this. Before, before you come in..."
Guan Nuo gritted his teeth and swallowed what he was about to say. He looked up at Jiang You with a serious look in his eyes and expression. "If I become the head of the Special Operations Department in the future, and Uncle Zhuang and Uncle Su have different ideas from me, can I really do what I want?"
Jiang You threw the empty Coke can into the trash can. "That will be two or three years later. It's always a good thing that Jinghu Club is gone."
"That's right," Guan Nuo thought for a moment and said, "By the way, the couple at the pancake stall has a baby, and it's almost a month old."
“Pancake stand?”
"That's the one who pushed me into the water."
"Oh, that," Jiang You remembered, "it's already been born, a boy or a girl"
"Boy, they plan to take the child back to Sumo."
"fine."
Guan Nuo was silent for a moment, then he said, "It's pretty good."
"Please do me a favor." Jiang You said.
"What's up?"
"Look, there's a table with an umbrella on the terrace above my greenhouse. Can you help me take it down and put it in the yard? Also, take down two lounge chairs," Jiang You explained to Guan Nuo, "When I was doing push-ups today, I felt a muscle stuck in my arm and I couldn't lift it up."
"Okay, I'll go move it." Guan Nuo stood up and placed the tables and chairs in the middle of the yard as Jiang You requested. After that, he looked at Jiang You and asked, "Anything else to do?"
“No need.”
Guan Nuo looked around and said, "Then I'll go back."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
After Guan Nuo left, Jiang You walked into the yard and lay down on the recliner.
The breeze blowing on my body is very comfortable.
"I always feel like I have a passive skill, caring big brother, no, caring uncle."
He took out his cell phone, thought about it, and sent a WeChat message to Tang Butian.
Jiang You: The strawberry yogurt flavored ice cream cake will be delivered to me in about an hour and a half. Would you like to try it?
After posting, he went out to read novels for a while. About ten minutes later, Tang Butian replied to him.
Tang is not sweet: Eat.
…
When Tang Butian walked into the yard, Jiang You was taking the cake from the box to the table. There was also a family bucket, a large bottle of Coke, two cups of strawberry cream and two white porcelain plates on the table.
Jiang You turned around and said, "Hey, you're here. Look at this cake. Isn't it pretty?"
A pink cake with a pink unicorn and some letters on it.
"We each have half?"
"good."
Jiang You cut the cake in half and put it on a porcelain plate. Then he took his portion and sat down on the recliner. He scooped a piece with a spoon and put it into his mouth. "When I order this at the store, I always get a small piece, which is not enough. I've been thinking about finding an opportunity to eat it all at once."
Tang Butian watched Jiang You put the spoon on the plate. He reached out and took out a chicken wing from the bucket. He said, "Spicy chicken wings go really well with cold drinks. You should try it."
"Are you gaining weight?" Tang Butian asked.
"I'm losing weight. I've already exercised today, so I can eat as much as I want."
Tang Butian sat down on the empty recliner. She picked up the plate and scooped a small spoonful. It was icy, sour and sweet. It tasted delicious.
"I plan to be a thin person in the future. Being fat is not good. People always treat me like a trash can."
Tang Butian glanced at him, then lowered her head and concentrated on eating the cake.
"You don't believe it? I'm actually quite experienced in losing weight."
“Experience of failure.”
"I used to be a bit fat, but not as fat as I am now. I was probably about the same as when you knew me." Jiang You looked down at his belly, which was like a small hill. "If I hadn't been so passionate, I might have become this fat in a few years."
"And then?"
"Then I just ran. I was forced to run, non-stop." After Jiang You finished eating a chicken wing, he took a big mouthful of ice cream. After swallowing it, his esophagus seemed to be frozen. After a few seconds, the coolness spread throughout his body.
He lay back, tilted his head, and squinted his eyes at Tang Butian, "How's the Lin Yu case going?"
"Sun Yu is following, is he also from the Evil God Organization?"
"No," Jiang You took out a black bead from his pocket, "This is a magic weapon, I saved Lin Yu in Thailand, and I got this as a reward," he handed the bead to Tang Butian, "Duan Rui died, and this thing disappeared. Several months have passed, and no one has bothered Lin Yu."
"What's so special about him?" Tang Butian took the bead and looked at it carefully.
"I'm waiting for Zhuang Zekun to tell me," Jiang You yawned, "I guess I need to go to Chu City to figure this out. "
"When are you going?"
"Let's take a break first, and we'll talk about it in May." Jiang You took a few bites of ice cream and touched a chicken wing. "I'm recovering from my injury now."
"Recover from the injury."
"Yeah, I was injured there too." Jiang You noticed that Tang Butian's eyes fell on his right ankle. He said, "It's not a sprain, it's a real injury. I paid a price. Otherwise, why would my son be so well-behaved recently? He drew a picture a while ago, which is very artistic. I'll show it to you after he finishes eating."
