Chapter 5: We Are Old Classmates(1/2)

"It's so slow," as soon as Mo Xiaoyan showed her face, the other three people shouted.

"Sorry, I just got lost," Mo Xiaoyan was sitting down while talking nonsense, "You know, people tend to get lost easily when they get older."

"Senior Shen," Jiang Yuhan stood up when she saw Shen Chen, who came in a few steps late.

"I bought some barbecue, let's eat together," Shen Chen held a disposable box in his hand. From the smell inside, Mo Xiaoyan knew it was grilled gluten and grilled squid.

"After ordering so many dishes and buying barbecue, senior is really spending a lot of money," Sun Jingjing, who was sitting next to Mo Xiaoyan, stood up quickly and took the bag, "Yu Han, pass some tissues to senior."

"Since everyone is here, let the boss serve the food," Ni Weiwei raised her hand to signal the waiter, who immediately understood and went to the kitchen.

Here, Shen Chen and Jiang Yuhan were sitting side by side near the corridor, just opposite Mo Xiaoyan, while Sun Jingjing and Ni Weiwei happened to be sitting on the other two sides.

Jiang Yuhan and Shen Chen, one was wiping their hands, and the other was holding a box of facial tissue in front of him. The two were very close, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

"Sister Yan," Sun Jingjing pushed the barbecue box in front of her, "These are the snacks you must eat when you come to the commercial street. Come on, come on, eat more tonight, it won't cost you anyway."

"I also like to eat squid," Ni Weiwei pulled over the squid box, and the two of them didn't pay attention to what the people on both sides of the corridor were talking about.

Except for Mo Xiaoyan, who stared closely at the people in front of him.

Mo Xiaoyan seemed to suddenly realize her gaffe, and turned away to look at Ni Weiwei. She left the gluten in front of her and went to pull the squid in front of her.

"Here you go, forget it, you are a carnivore," Ni Weiwei had already taken two skewers, and while talking, she put one skewer into her mouth and handed the other skewer to Mo Xiaoyan.

"Thank you," Mo Xiaoyan pushed the box back, took the squid, and chewed it tastelessly.

"If you don't eat gluten, then I'll eat it," Sun Jingjing pulled back the box in front of Mo Xiaoyan, and then asked the two people beside the aisle, "Don't you want to eat it?"

"I eat gluten," Jiang Yuhan put down the tissue box, reached into Sun Jingjing's box and took two skewers, then turned around and handed them to Shen Chen, "Senior, how about some?"

Shen Chen took it and smiled, saying thank you, and everyone at the table ate the barbecue quietly.

All this is in Mo Xiaoyan's eyes. I don't know why, but it is obviously hot food, but it is cold in the stomach.

In the past, Mo Xiaoyan would gnaw on these things with big mouthfuls. Today, she didn't know what happened. She bit the string in her hand and chewed it slowly, and her face was covered with oil.

"Here comes the food." The barbecue was almost done, and the ordered dishes were starting to be served. Sun Jingjing hurriedly took the last bite of the barbecue, stood up to take the food vaguely, and signaled to others not to rush and eat slowly.

"Grilled fish?" Ni Weiwei on the opposite side also hurriedly took the last bite and helped put the bamboo sticks and boxes on the table into the bag.

"I ordered some of Sister Mo's favorite foods." Everyone put the bamboo sticks into the bags. Jiang Yuhan, who was sitting next to her, stood up and took Ni Weiwei's bag. "I was just going to wash my hands. Give it to me!"

"I'll go too, let's go together," Ni Weiwei followed Jiang Yuhan, and the two of them went downstairs together.

"Sister Yan, your mouth!" Sun Jingjing, who was standing there, gestured to Mo Xiaoyan, who was stunned.

"What?" Mo Xiaoyan suddenly wiped it with his hands.

"Oil," Shen Chen took the tissue box, pulled out the tissue and handed it to her, "It's best to go to the bathroom and wash it. Your face is covered with oil after eating."

"I'm happy, and I don't want you to worry about it," Mo Xiaoyan finished speaking for a long time before he realized that his tone was too cold, and he didn't care about his mouth, so he got up and ran to the bathroom.

"Sister Yan," I met the two people coming up at the corner of the stairs, "are you going to the bathroom? Do you want to wait for me?"

"You guys eat first," Mo Xiaoyan waved her hand and went downstairs without even pausing.

"What's wrong, Sister Yan?" The two people who returned to their seats asked casually.

"Maybe you bit your tongue while talking?" Sun Jingjing also felt confused and didn't know what she was making.

"Bit your tongue again?" Ni Weiwei was not surprised. After being together for so long, Mo Xiaoyan would either choke on her own saliva or bite her tongue every once in a while. She was really curious about how she had been doing in the past twenty years. Came here.

"She said let us eat first," Jiang Yuhan said to Shen Chen, "seniors should eat first!"

"Eat first, eat first. Sister Yan needs some time to accept the fact that her tongue was bitten. Let's mourn for her tongue while eating!" Ni Weiwei had already picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up the pickled fish.

"Senior, you ordered two fish dishes?" Sun Jingjing felt that this way of ordering was a bit strange.

"Maybe some people don't like grilled fish, so they can eat pickled fish. If they don't like pickled fish, they can eat grilled fish. They always order fish. I don't know if you like to eat light or something else." Shen Chen explained.

"I ordered it," Jiang Yuhan hurriedly took over, "I'm learning from Sister Yan. Every time we go out to eat together, we always want to eat something we meet. Doesn't Sister Yan do the same thing? I think this method is good."

"You also like to eat grilled fish and pickled fish?" Sun Jingjing smiled while serving the soup, "Didn't I remember that you only like to eat pickled fish?"

"I like to eat," Shen Chen held the chopsticks but did not move, "I often do this too."

"Same as Sister Mo, senior," Ni Weiwei said vaguely, "Every time Sister Mo does this, we will say that she can't have her cake and eat it too, and she can't be too greedy. What do you think Sister Mo said? "

"A person who gives up a choice is too stupid. He can trade half a bear paw with a fish seller for a fish. You know, bear paws are extremely expensive nowadays," Jiang Yuhan said in a hurry.

"What if that person only has fish?" Shen Chen asked and answered himself, "Then first practice your eloquence, go to the bear paw seller, and convince the bear paw seller to give you half."

"Exact answer," Sun Jingjing gave a thumbs up, "People who don't know may think you two know each other. You know, Sister Mo said those theories are just nonsense. Now that I have money, I can eat whatever I want!"

"We do know each other," when Shen Chen said this, Mo Xiaoyan happened to come back from the bathroom and was standing behind him.

"Do you know each other?" Sun Jingjing and Ni Weiwei looked up at Mo Xiaoyan who was standing there.

"That-" Mo Xiaoyan really wanted to go to the bathroom again.

"High school classmate," Shen Chen turned around knowing that Mo Xiaoyan was behind him, "But we have only been in the same class for one year. I went back to my hometown to study in my senior year of high school."

"My high school classmate, Sister Yan, didn't even tell me," Jiang Yuhan was very surprised, "I thought you didn't know each other."

"Sister Yan, let alone Jiang Yuhan mentioned the senior so many times, you don't even know who he is? Even if you don't know who the specific person is, the name should still feel familiar, right? You haven't even mentioned it to us," Sun Jingjing said. Hu was deceived.

"That's right, you two have met a few times, and it's so unkind to let us know that you two are old classmates now," Ni Weiwei also expressed her grievances.

It seems that this dinner is about to turn into a denunciation meeting.

Mo Xiaoyan didn't know what to say, he just stood there blankly.

Shen Chen, didn’t you say they were just ordinary friends? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t mention the past? Old classmates? What do you mean?

"I think she may not even remember me. I just remembered it," Shen Chen interjected, "After all, at that time, we were all college entrance examination machines, reading, writing and memorizing every day. My deskmate only knew the name, but didn't know How is he doing today and is he in a good mood?"

The heated denunciation at the dinner table stopped immediately.

It took a long time before someone broke the silence.

"Yes, if I don't look at the graduation photos, I won't remember who they are, I only remember a face," Jiang Yuhan agreed.

"I don't think so," Ni Weiwei bit her lip, "I don't think I even know all the faces. Don't you feel the same way? When I looked at my graduation photos, I suddenly realized why there were so many strangers. Someone pretended to be a student in our class’s graduation photo?”

"It's not scary not to remember the face," Sun Jingjing said, "The scary thing is that you clearly remember that he looks ugly, but when you go home in the car, a handsome guy or beautiful girl with a very handsome temperament greets you, He also told you that he was so-and-so, don’t you remember? My whole body was not well at that time.”

"It's possible for handsome men and beautiful women to become losers," Ni Weiwei immediately agreed.

"That's good. I finally have someone I know who can pry out Sister Yan's past secrets from him." Sun Jingjing put aside the topic just now, "Senior, is there any earth-shattering incident in Sister Yan's high school?"

"I want to hear it too," the other two people said, also full of gossip.

Mo Xiaoyan only felt her head buzzing, and everything around her became silent.

"Yes, I remember she was quite fat in high school," Shen Chen looked at Mo Xiaoyan with questioning eyes, "Am I remembering correctly?"

"Are you very fat?" Jiang Yuhan was the closest, grabbing Shen Chen's arm and asked.

"It's okay," Shen Chen looked thoughtful, "I'm not very fat, but I'm definitely not slim."

"Is there anything else? Is there anything else?" Everyone at the table put down their chopsticks and sat there waiting for the news.

"It seems like there's nothing left. High school is boring and there aren't any big events, right?" Shen Chen stopped there.

Mo Xiaoyan felt relieved.

"Big events are all fiction in novels. This is real life for us. The biggest thing is just being caught climbing over the wall in the middle of the night to go online and being criticized in the school." Jiang Yuhan unconditionally agreed with Shen Chen's words, "The life of high school students across the country It’s almost the same. Even if a big event happens, the school will try its best not to let too many people know about it, and those big events will eventually become the horrific school history circulated on campus.”

"Speaking of which, there weren't any big events in my high school," Ni Weiwei shook her head, "Oh, eat, eat, and chatting while eating is prohibited, as it affects your appetite."

"Sister Yan, what are you standing there for? Come in!" Sun Jingjing stood up and motioned for her to go inside.

Only then did Mo Xiaoyan react, nodded and went inside.

No sensitive topics were brought up during the entire dinner. Sun Jingjing and Ni Weiwei discussed people and things in their respective clubs as usual, one mentioned a drama, and the other talked about the latest activities of Wenxin Club. Jiang Yuhan and Shen Chen chatted in low voices, occasionally The name of the director of the News Department of Jiang Yuhan's student union popped up, as well as the Sports Department.

Mo Xiaoyan has adapted to the current situation. Others ignored her and she did not interrupt. She just kept eating with her chopsticks. Most of the two plates of fish were eaten into Mo Xiaoyan's stomach.

In fact, in his sophomore year, Mo Xiaoyan invited Shen Chen to dinner for the first time. It was to thank him for helping her review science and comprehensive studies before the monthly exam. They only served two fish dishes and no other side dishes.

It was the weekend, and Mo Xiaoyan was waiting for Shen Chen in People's Square with two hundred yuan in his arms.

Finally, when ordering food at a restaurant in the food city, Mo Xiaoyan swallowed her saliva while looking at the reference picture on the menu. At that time, Shen Chen had already ordered several home-cooked dishes and egg soup.

However, Mo Xiaoyan was stumped by the choice and wandered between grilled fish and pickled fish.

"Just pick one, why are you so confused?" Shen Chen drank all the pot of tea brought by the waiter. The waiter waiting for the menu couldn't wait any longer and left the pen and paper on the table.

"But I want to eat them all," Mo Xiaoyan was still hesitating.

"Let me choose," Shen Chen pulled the menu and looked at the two sides that Mo Xiaoyan was confused about.

"Let's pickle fish," Shen Chen suggested.

"The pickled fish doesn't have the flavor of grilled fish and is very bland," Mo Xiaoyan stared at Shen Chen with big watery eyes.

"What about grilled fish?" Shen Chen changed his mind.

"There's no soup for grilled fish, and it might be very spicy," Mo Xiaoyan pouted.

............

The two of them have been arguing for ten minutes.
