When they went downstairs, the two of them still walked in tandem.
Li He couldn't stand it and pulled her forward. "Why are you so far away from me? I won't eat you. Walk faster, I'm starving. There are glutinous rice cakes, fried dough sticks, and soy milk at the door. "
"I'm really hungry!" He Zhaodi only heard this. "Let's hurry up then."
She ran to the front and stopped in front of a breakfast shop. "Boss, four glutinous rice cakes, no, eight. And a bowl of soy milk. "
The glutinous rice cakes had just been scooped out of the oil pan. The golden skin was bubbling with cute oil bubbles.
The air was filled with the aroma of rapeseed oil.
By the time Li He caught up with her, she had already bought the soy milk and glutinous rice cakes and was waiting for Li He at the table.
Li He was out of breath. "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"You're hungry. Hurry up and eat."
"Why aren't you eating?" Li He took a bite. The outer layer was thick and crispy, while the inner layer was white and soft glutinous rice.
He Zhaodi shook her head. "I'm done. You eat."
"How can I finish so much? You eat one too." Li He handed her a pair of chopsticks.
He Zhaodi took the chopsticks but didn't eat. "I'll eat if you can't finish it."
"I'll eat six. You eat two." Li He pushed the plate to her.
"Eat it."
People came and went in the restaurant. The two only cared about eating and didn't say anything.
"There's no more seats." An old lady came in with a child.
He Zhaodi looked at the child the old lady brought in.
The child was obviously hungry. He was drooling at the glutinous rice cakes on the table. She understood. She stood up and said, "Sit in my seat."
The old lady said hurriedly, "Thank you, thank you."
"Let's go." Li He had also finished eating by then.
As he walked out of the restaurant, he habitually asked for cigarettes. He didn't notice that the pack was empty, so he could only walk a few steps and throw it into the trash can.
He turned around and found that He Zhaodi had disappeared. As he was looking around, He Zhaodi ran over from afar.
He Zhaodi handed a pack of cigarettes to Li He. "We don't sell the kind of cigarettes you smoke. You can have a Zhonghua."
"Thank you." Li He suddenly didn't know what to say.
He Zhaodi said, "You should smoke less in the future. Look at my father. He smokes too much and coughs every day. He even suffers."
"I will slowly quit smoking." Li He lied.
He Zhaodi hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I'm not asking you to quit smoking. It would be best if you could quit smoking. I know it's hard to quit. Dad told me to quit smoking and he never quit."
"I know, you're doing this for my own good. The two of them chatted as they walked. Li He asked, "I heard you bought a car again."
"Yes, they are all old cars from the city's transport team. I heard that a new car costs hundreds of thousands. I can't afford it. It's enough to transport bricks and sand. "He Zhaodi changed the topic and said confidently," But I'll be able to afford a new car in two years. "
"Is it tiring?"
"It's not tiring. It's all tiring. It's just not as tiring as reading and using your brain."
Li He said with a smile, "Reading is the easiest."
He Zhaodi said seriously, "You're smart, but you don't think so. I get tired and annoyed after reading for a few minutes. My head hurts."
After entering the hospital, Li He didn't go upstairs. He found a flower bed and sat down. He Zhaodi also sat down.
"Did anyone in the county give you trouble?" Li He would definitely help if he could.
"At first, there was. They blocked my car and said that my car crushed the road in front of their house and didn't allow me to cross. It's not like you don't know our road. It's all dirt roads. How could it be crushed? Occasionally, there are stone roads with potholes, but they're public roads. What does it have to do with them? They're deliberately making life difficult for me. I'm not afraid of them. I took a shovel and aimed it at their heads. "
Li He tensed up. "Are you messing around? What if something happens?"
He Zhaodi burst out laughing. "Bullsh * t! I'm not an idiot. How could I really hit their heads? Wouldn't it become a watermelon? It'd be terrible if it got rotten. I was just scaring them. This bunch of cowards only shouted loudly. These people are cheap. If I don't beat them up for three days, they'll tear the roof tiles off. If I don't be ruthless, they'll think I'm afraid. "
She said happily, her eyebrows dancing. However, Li He's heart ached. "Next time we go back, tell me who it is. I'll go back and beat them up."
"No need, no need. Your third brother and Chen Yongqiang are all helping me. It's just that I didn't let them. Trust me. No one dares to look down on me. Don't bother with these good-for-nothings. They'll never be able to see the back of their heads for the rest of their lives. Let them grow as they please. " After comforting Li He, He Zhaodi suddenly remembered how excited she was just now. She seemed to have said some vulgarities. She blamed herself and said, "Sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you."
Li He asked, "Have you ever thought about coming out to develop your career? I have some business here too. Why don't you come and help me? There are many opportunities in this big city. If you're smart and can endure hardship, you can make a fortune no matter what you do. "
"No need, no need. I've never studied. I'll be poor if I can be poor at home." He Zhaodi stood up and said with a smile, "I'll go back first. If I go back, my father will be anxious again. He can't sit still with that temper of his."
Without waiting for Li He's reply, He Zhaodi jogged. When she reached the stairs, she couldn't help but cover her face and cry.
She understood in her heart that he was still pitying her.
Everything was just her wishful thinking. How could she, He Zhaodi, need someone to pity her?
However, she quickly wiped away her tears. He was married, he had a wife, and he had a child. What was the use of her being unrequited?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sob. Seeing the curious gazes of the people around her, she hurriedly hid in a corner of the corridor. She just wanted to stay quietly for a while.
Li He looked at her back, feeling baffled. He didn't know what he had said wrong.
In the next few days, he went to the construction site a few times. Everything was progressing in an orderly manner.
Accompanied by Pinsong, Li He looked at the plots of land and properties that Pinsong had bought.
"We've bought all the land along the Beiqing Highway."
Pinsong was shocked. "Brother, although this area is big, it's desolate and uninhabited. There's no use in buying it. Huacao, Huaxin Town, and Zhudi Town don't have many decent streets. Why don't we buy a better area? "
Li He smiled and said, "We can buy it to make a logistics park or a warehouse."
He had lived here before, so he couldn't be mistaken. Later on, whether it was an internationally renowned logistics company or Four Links and One Reach, they all set up warehouse centers here.
"We don't even have a truck."
"Who told you that we need a truck to build a logistics park? We're not building a transport team, we're a warehouse center. "Li He didn't have the patience to talk to Pinsong. He just said," Buy it first and make arrangements later. "
Pinsong could only agree helplessly. He knew that Li He always did whatever he wanted and didn't have a plan.
Li He had arranged everything that needed to be arranged. Now that he was free, he felt anxious.
He couldn't help but look for He Zhaodi again. Afraid that He Laoxi would feel that something was wrong, he didn't enter the ward and only waved at He Zhaodi from outside.
He Zhaodi said, "I'm busy."
"Oh, go ahead then." Li He turned around and left.
Li He realized that He Zhaodi's smile was a little forced, and his heart was naturally stifled.
Li He went a few times, but He Zhaodi still treated him like this. She didn't even ask him to stay for a meal.
He Zhaodi looked at his thin back in the distance. How could she not feel heartache?
When she saw him, she had to pretend to laugh louder than usual. She knew very well how much her stomach was flooded with tears.
Li He left the hospital and stood on the street. Looking at the bustling, noisy, and bustling crowd, he was a little at a loss. Indeed, places with many people were lonely.
He thought that if he was liked, he would always be liked.
He only thought, I haven't done anything bad in my two lives, so why is it like this?
