Chapter 491 The Cold-Hearted King is Inhumane When He Tortures Dogs
Xie Chang'an casually turned on the light, illuminating the room as if it were daytime.
Luo Ning glanced at Qiangzi, who was lying at her feet, and almost burst out laughing. "You're being too kind by giving such a grand greeting at a time like this!"
Qiangzi got up in a fit of rage, looked at Xie Chang'an behind the door and then at Luo Ning. This unscrupulous couple was simply too much.
"Brother Tiejun and the others left early because they were afraid the restaurant would close. I've been knocking on the door for ages and you haven't responded at all. I thought you'd been abducted by aliens and I was rushing in to rescue you. I never expected you to team up and play me like this!"
Qiangzi is a man born to make people laugh, that's for sure.
Luo Ning laughed three times and went out, with Xie Chang'an immediately following.
Qiangzi snorted coldly, slammed the door shut, and followed closely behind.
The three of them arrived at the restaurant quickly. Qiangzi was looking through the menu when Xie Chang'an snatched it away.
"Okay, you come on!" Qiangzi took out some melon seeds, showing his magnanimity that he wouldn't stoop to Xie Chang'an's level.
Xie Chang'an placed the menu in front of Luo Ning, "Wife, you order, order what you like!"
Luo Ning smiled and ordered seven or eight dishes in one go. The waiter happily took the menu and left.
Xie Chang'an read the menu from beginning to end and found that there was no stir-fried snail meat. Bad review!
Luo Ning poured Xie Chang'an a cup of tea, and then poured one for herself. "Let's eat our fill today. We've come all the way to Guangzhou, so we have to try the seafood to make the trip worthwhile!"
Qiangzi was so happy that his mouth stretched from ear to ear, and he offered up his sunflower seeds to pass the time.
He offered the seeds to Luo Ning, but Luo Ning forcefully stopped him, saying, "The sunflower seeds are delicious but too hard to peel. I don't want you to eat them."
"Lazybones!" Qiangzi muttered, completely ignoring Xie Chang'an.
Xie Chang'an grabbed Qiangzi's hand and shook it in front of him before letting go.
"Holy crap!" Qiangzi exclaimed as if he had discovered a new continent. Could he have met a fake Chang'an brother?
It must be that the sun rose in the west today; I, who never eat sunflower seeds, suddenly broke my craving.
Qiangzi, full of doubts, finished sending Luo Yang's message and sat back in his seat. He saw Xie Chang'an peeling sunflower seeds and felt it was all so surreal.
Chang'an Ge's hands are always holding guns, so it's a bit incongruous for him to be holding sunflower seeds.
Wang Tiejun's gaze lingered on Luo Ning and Xie Chang'an's faces for a moment, and then he suddenly understood something...
Xie Chang'an peeled all the melon seeds and gave them to Luo Ning.
Luo Ning smiled so broadly that her eyes disappeared, and every melon seed seemed to convey Xie Chang'an's affection.
Holy crap, Qiangzi was blinded by the sheer amount of dog food he was forced to eat. The cold-blooded Yama is utterly inhumane when it comes to abusing dogs.
Luo Yang suddenly felt a little dazed, remembering how he walked several streets in the winter to buy candied hawthorns for his beloved girl. He almost froze to death on the way back, but seeing Jingjing's happy face as she ate the candied hawthorns warmed his heart.
That scene will never happen again; his girl has married someone else, and from now on, Xiao Lang is just a stranger.
Luo Ning took in Luo Yang's forlorn expression; Luo Yang certainly had a story to tell!
The food was served quickly, and everyone started eating heartily.
Xie Chang'an picked up a few large shrimp and placed them on a plate. He started peeling the shrimp, but didn't eat them. Instead, he dipped them in sauce and put them in Luo Ning's bowl.
If there weren't outsiders present, he would have fed it directly into Luo Ning's mouth.
"I can't take it anymore!" Qiangzi exclaimed, clutching his still-unrepaired titanium alloy dog eyes. He was determined to report this place for animal abuse!
"So much delicious food can't shut you up!" Wang Tiejun isn't single, so he didn't feel the pinch, but he felt quite ashamed because he had never done these things for his wife.
Luo Hai swallowed the rice, swallowing the bitterness along with it. "Qiangzi, you should find a girlfriend soon, so you can peel shrimp for people!"
"Go away, go away! If you're a brother, don't mention that to me. I'm perfectly free on my own, why do I need someone to control me!" Qiangzi stuffed a mouthful of blanched bok choy into his mouth, making a strong statement.
"Let me tell you, it really saddened me to see them buried in pairs. When will they be able to be as free as I am!"
Luo Hai shook his head and chuckled, "Silly boy!"
I knew it from the look in his eyes—this person was destined to be single forever!
Luo Ning secretly felt a surge of happiness. Although she wasn't the pretentious girl who talked about peeling shrimp, Xie Chang'an was so considerate, she was bursting with happiness.
But Xie Chang'an's progress is too fast, it's almost like a rocket.
Luo Ning put some of her favorite foods into Xie Chang'an's bowl.
"Can't a person just eat in peace?!" Qiangzi wailed, slamming his head on the table, feeling utterly tormented by Xie Chang'an and Luo Ning, that heartless couple.
Everyone pretended not to see it; the seafood was really good.
They grew up in the north, which is not near the sea, and rarely ate seafood.
"Luoning, why doesn't this restaurant require a ticket?" Wang Tiejun, whose seat was directly opposite the counter, had observed for a long time before arriving at this conclusion.
"This is a city with a large migrant population. The ration coupons restricted many people's consumption. The planned economy system doesn't work here, so the boss changed his mindset and broke the old model. He abolished the coupons and raised the vegetable prices slightly, so anyone can come in and consume. The boss can earn more. It's a win-win situation!"
Luo Ning picked up a hairy crab, her eyes shining. She tore off a leg and placed it on a plate. Lifting the crab flap revealed the rich crab roe, which made Luo Ning's eyes light up. She picked up a small spoon and scooped two spoonfuls of crab roe into Xie Chang'an's bowl, then poured some dipping sauce on top.
"This is also the trend. The era of food coupons will come to an end, and Friendship Stores will be dethroned. From now on, you only need to carry money when you go out!"
Actually, you don't need to carry cash. For large transactions, use bank transfers; for small transactions, use WeChat Pay, Alipay, or fast food.
If you don't know how to use mobile payment, you'd be embarrassed to go out. Even collecting recyclables uses WeChat.
"That's a good idea," Wang Tiejun and the others nodded repeatedly.
It's so difficult to go out without a ticket. Luckily, Luo Ning had quite a few, otherwise even eating at a state-run restaurant would be a problem.
Luo Ning gave all the crab roe to Xie Chang'an and ate the crab meat herself. "These days we've been visiting various factories, have you noticed? There are a lot of women working here, and there will be even more in the future. The assembly line work isn't physically demanding, but it takes a long time and the work is very tedious."
Working girls leave their hometowns to make a living, and loneliness is inevitable. Finding a partner can solve this problem and even help with important life events.
However, there are very few male workers around them, and it is very common for several women to date the same man!
In cities like Guangzhou, Beijing, and Shanghai, urban development is almost entirely supported by the influx of migrant workers.
Many of the new forces in the high-tech industry are highly educated people from all over the country. When the Spring Festival holiday comes, the office buildings are empty and the cities are deserted.
Cuihua, who worked on the assembly line in Shenzhen, returned to her hometown in the north, wrapped in a thick cotton-padded coat, and sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) eating sunflower seeds.
Erzhu, who was carrying bricks at the construction site, took his wife, who worked as a laborer, to buy New Year's goods and go home to reunite with his mother and son.
Tom, who works in an office building in Beijing, returns to his rural hometown and becomes Gou Dan'er, joining the villagers for a traditional feast.
After the Spring Festival, they returned to their workplaces and began their mundane, arduous, or glamorous lives.
The construction of the city cannot be separated from them; they are the witnesses to the city's prosperity!
As reform and opening up deepen and become more sustained, our area will also become a paradise for migrant workers!
Wang Tiejun has a deep understanding of this, as he used to work on construction sites.
Meeting Luo Ning caused his life to take a turn, leading him onto a smooth and prosperous path.
The two men who had been eating at the next table suddenly got up and came over.
