Chapter 629 The Little Assistant's Drama King 21
The North Tower has a total of twelve floors. When I first started climbing, the air was cool in the early morning and there were many people.
By the time the two climbed to the eighth floor of the North Building, there were significantly fewer people visible to the naked eye. Most people had chosen to give up in the first few sections of the journey, and some also ended their journey at the eighth floor of the North Building.
Because anyone who knows a little about it knows that starting from the eighth floor in the north, the slope behind is very steep. Going up and down is very tiring, especially for the legs. People with poor physical fitness cannot climb up.
Gu Xiao was no longer in a hurry to rush forward with his backpack. He and Lingyao each held a hiking stick in their hands and followed closely one after the other.
When we arrived at the eighth floor of the North Building, the damp and cool air in the early morning turned into dry and warm. I knew it was time for lunch without looking at my watch.
Gu Xiao climbed up before Lingyao and found a flat, wide stone nearby where people could sit.
He took out a tissue from his bag and wiped it briefly, then stood guard at this spot and waved to Lingyao: "Here."
When Lingyao walked over, he had already bent over and started rummaging through his big backpack.
After a while, he took out two packaged sandwiches from the bag. They had been in the bag for the whole morning, so they were inevitably a little deformed.
He stared at it for two seconds with a bit of regret, then handed the sandwich that looked better to Lingyao.
"Here." Ever since we finished chatting, there has been a smile on his face, as if it was painted on and never faded.
As he handed it to her, he sat down next to Lingyao, with a fist's space between them. "It doesn't look good, just bear with it. We'll have something better to eat when we get down the mountain."
Lingyao took the sandwich and took a look at it. Apart from being a little flattened, it actually looked pretty good.
She raised her hand to peel it and was about to eat it, but she suddenly stopped while staring at the sandwich in her hand.
Gu Xiao, who was standing next to her, had actually been secretly paying attention to Lingyao. Seeing Lingyao staring at the sandwich, he suddenly became a little nervous.
He moved his butt over, not even within the distance of a fist, and hunched his back to look at Lingyao's hand.
He didn't dare take off the hat on his head, and the dark hair on his forehead was pressed down a little by the hat, just hitting his thin eyelids. He had no makeup on his face, his skin was fair, and he looked less mature than usual and more youthful and refreshed.
Gu Xiao just leaned over to take a look, and his body suddenly stiffened.
He unnaturally pulled back, sat up straight, turned around, tilted his body with his back facing Lingyao, with something in his mouth, and his voice was vague and ethereal.
“I didn’t know that when I bought it.”
There is plenty of sunlight on the eighth floor of the north building, enough to see clearly everything under the light.
When Lingyao peeled open the sandwich in her hand, she discovered that half of the egg had been squeezed out and was hanging precariously on the bread.
A heart-shaped one.
Slightly mushy fried eggs.
Just bake in the sun.
"There are a lot of people opposite you." Lingyao looked at Gu Xiao facing her stubbornly with his back and spoke suddenly.
Sure enough, within a few seconds after he finished speaking, he finally turned around.
Gu Xiao's face looked like it had been fried in the sun, with pink all over his ears and cheeks, and he was so embarrassed that he was about to die.
Gu Xiao thought that if she dared to laugh at him or show any sign of something wrong, he would immediately put on his bag, climb up to the twelfth floor in one breath, and not say a word to her on the way!
...I won’t talk to her more than ten words!
Fortunately, there was no teasing expression on her face, nor any emotion that would make him explode immediately. Instead, she had two lunch boxes in her hands without him noticing.
Gu Xiao's brain short-circuited for a moment, and he looked at the thing in her hand, wondering: "What is this? Where did it come from?"
"Food." She was as neat and tidy as ever. She rewrapped the sandwich, held it in her hand, opened the lunch box, and handed it to Gu Xiao. "I brought it from home. Try it."
There are three compartments in the box, one compartment contains three multi-grain rolls made with crab sticks, and the other two compartments contain sushi that makes people's appetite increase just by looking at it.
There were yellow peaches and fried shrimps, and they climbed all the way up, and even the salad dressing on top wasn’t too messy.
Gu Xiao looked at the bag she placed next to her in surprise. He saw that she seemed to be carrying it very easily, but he didn't expect that she was carrying such two large boxes in it.
He smacked his lips, stared at Lingyao and murmured: "I underestimated you, Teacher Xiao1."
Of course, the God of Wealth looks down on everyone.
Lingyao felt that Gu Xiao was quite sensible.
From simple sandwiches to rich sushi, you will know what to choose.
Gu Xiao didn't feel awkward or think that the things he brought were inferior to those brought by others. Instead, he felt as if his heart was filled with marshmallows, soft and sweet.
No matter what, it proves that she cares about him, very much!
Otherwise why would he bring double portion of food? Just like he would want to bring food for her, he would prepare it because he cares about her.
When he was preparing, he thought that girls might have smaller appetites, and it would be inconvenient to bring other food because of the cold weather, so the sandwich should be enough. As for himself, he didn't plan to eat a full meal.
As someone who had eaten with him several times before, she should know that if he wanted to eat enough during a meal, he would probably have to carry more weight in his backpack.
Gu Xiao spread out his hands, wanting to take back his sandwich which didn't look good and tasted just average.
"Let me eat the sandwich together, you eat this." Gu Xiao handed the open box to Lingyao and was about to take the sandwich from her hand, but Lingyao leaned her upper body back to avoid him.
Lingyao moved fluently. He leaned back, raised his hands twice and opened the sandwich, which was not wrapped tightly to begin with. He took a bite. His movements were quick and decisive, and he looked quite handsome.
After taking a bite, she looked at him calmly and said, "I've already eaten it. It's mine now."
"What's wrong with having eaten it? I made this, so it's obviously mine."
Without thinking, Gu Xiao looked at her with a look of "what can you do to me" and blurted out.
Lingyao raised her eyebrows and said, "Didn't you say you bought it?"
Gu Xiao: “…”
There were some young kids nearby who looked like they were still studying. They were full of energy and were laughing and chatting during the break.
But when that laughter reached Gu Xiao's ears, he could hardly hold his face.
He wouldn't speak to her more than five...eight sentences.
In the end, each of them ate a sandwich, Lingyao ate three sushis, and the remaining two boxes all went into Gu Xiao's stomach.
Gu Xiao finished the last one and was just 70% full.
He felt that compared to her, he was a little exaggerated. And not just compared to her. Even in the crew, few people ate more than Gu Xiao.
Sometimes, directors who don’t know him well would get worried and ask Chen Yuan to persuade them.
Don’t keep taking photos of yourself, or your small face will become a small oval one, which will not look photogenic.
However, it turned out that the director was worrying too much. Although Gu Xiao had a big appetite, he also exercised a lot, and he had an enviable physique that made him less likely to gain weight.
Gu Xiao, who usually didn't feel anything, quietly glanced around at the tourists who were sitting down to eat like them...it seemed that none of them ate as much as he did.
He cleared his throat, and Lingyao handed him some water at that moment. He took it, but did not drink it. Instead, he said something to Lingyao with a stern face.
"I'm a little tired from climbing the mountain today. Normally, I don't eat that much."
Lingyao also tilted her head back to drink water. The electrolyte water was lime-flavored and tasted sweet but not greasy.
After swallowing the cold water, Lingyao glanced at him indifferently.
The words that were uttered mercilessly revealed Gu Xiao's last "fig leaf".
"Are you done pretending? It's not like we haven't had dinner together before."
The wind blew towards him, carrying her words, and slapped Gu Xiao in the face.
Gu Xiao choked again: "......"
Teacher Xiao1, you are so talented.
