Oh, dear! Fish me again

Chapter 14: Sugar Crisp? So sweet!

Ning Hao couldn't help but look at Tang Shu a few times along the way. This girl was delicate and well-behaved, but her words and actions were generous.

People at the bottom of society are best at reading people's faces and detecting the subtlest attitudes in other people's eyes.

After just a few minutes of spending time together, Ning Hao knew that Tang Shu didn't mean to look down on him at all.

People like them, who went to vocational high schools in their teens, spent two years there in a daze, learned nothing, and only learned how to smoke, pick up girls, and play billiards, and then hurried out to welcome their own ruined lives.

The little hooligans are destined to have no future, and they know it themselves, but they have no education and no good family...

Just take it one day at a time and muddle through.

Noticing Ning Hao's gaze, Tang Shu looked up and smiled at him.

She has no prejudice against humans. She just has a special preference for those who are good-looking.

She didn't understand the so-called division of people into different classes and the disparity in social status.

Even though I understand it now, I still feel disdainful. These are things that people with inferiority complexes will cling to.

Every industry has its own rules, and the gangsters are just making a living by following their own rules.

No one is causing trouble for her for no reason, so there is no need to treat them differently.

Tang Shu looked at Ning Hao. This yellow-haired gangster leader was a person she had only met twice before. He always looked sinister in front of others.

But now it was just the two of them walking on the quiet road, and he didn't say much, and seemed a little more reserved.

Noticing this, Tang Shu took the initiative to open the topic with a smile.

"Brother Hao, are you familiar with this area?"

Sure enough, after she took the initiative to speak, the other party visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I grew up here, of course I'm familiar with it."

Ning Hao stretched his arms and asked her, "How come your sister is studying in No. 1 Middle School and lives in that old and run-down compound?"

"Is there any conflict between the two?"

"Of course, No. 1 Middle School is a famous aristocratic school."

Tang Shu smiled and said, "Then I am probably an exception. I have no money."

"Tsk, what about me?" Ning Hao stopped, took out a familiar wallet from his trouser pocket, and threw it to Tang Shu, "I'm returning the wallet to you. Explain clearly that you gave it to me this morning."

Tang Shu was stunned for a moment. She really forgot about her wallet.

I put my wallet away and happened to pass by a row of snack shops.

The shop next to me has a big copper pot at the door, with a large pot of meat braised in it. It smells particularly delicious. There are a few big, rough words written on the sign: "Authentic Braised Meat from So-and-so".

Tang Shu had never eaten it before, so she smelled it again.

"Brother Hao, would you like some braised pork? I'll treat you~" she asked Huangmao.

Ning Hao raised his eyebrows. There were many women who asked him for money to treat them, but this was the first time a girl wanted to buy him food.

He was in a good mood and nodded.

"That's great, let's eat a few skewers."

*

The two stopped in front of the snack bar because Ning Hao said that this kind of food is only authentic if you eat it standing on the roadside.

The proprietress was wearing a clean apron and had a happy smile on her face.

"What a pretty girl! Do you want some chili oil?"

Tang Shu thought about it and answered seriously,

"I want to eat~"

Ning Hao lowered his eyes and glanced at her, with only one thought in his mind: this girl is so well-behaved.

With this look, this figure, and this personality, he dared to say that there was no man she couldn't win.

He is only eighteen. What will happen when he is a few years older?

Fortunately, he knows his own capabilities and won't have any inappropriate thoughts.

"Brother Hao, do you like spicy food?" Tang Shu turned around and asked him.

The lady boss shouted, "Of course he eats spicy food. He has loved spicy food since he was a kid!"

Ning Hao smiled at the proprietress, looked back at Tang Shu, and lowered his voice.

"My name is Ning Hao, you can just call me by my name."

Tang Shu nodded, "Brother Ning Hao, my name is Tang Shu."

"Sugar crisps?"

Ning Hao raised his eyebrows and joked, "So sweet~"

"Hey!" Tang Shu opened the wallet in her hand and showed him the ID card inside, "It's this Shu..."

"I've seen it before. I'm just teasing you."

The yellow-haired gang leader showed a smile that was out of place for him, and he didn't even notice it.

*

Just after taking a bite, Ning Hao suddenly felt several eyes looking at him from behind.

He looked vigilantly to the left and back, where there was a foot massage shop.

A gangster came out from the door, glanced at him, and lowered his head to talk to his phone.

"Walk."

Alarm bells rang in his head, and he immediately pulled Tang Shu and ran away quickly.

Several men quickly ran out of the foot bath shop and chased after them.

Tang Shu certainly had no prejudice against gangsters, but she also had no idea about their daily lives.

At this time, she and Ning Hao were stuck in the small street opposite the barbecue restaurant.

There were six people on the other side, led by an arrogant guy with tattoos on his arms.

"Hey, isn't this Haozi? Why did you come to my territory alone? Isn't this a gift to me?"

Ning Hao stopped Tang Shu and said, "Let her go. I will play with you guys slowly."

The flower-armed man spat on the ground and looked at Tang Shu with a lecherous look.

"Why are you leaving? You have such a beautiful sister, why don't you just play with her?"

"Are you kidding me?" Ning Hao picked up a brick on the ground and rushed over with a cold face.

So the two sides started fighting after a disagreement.

*

Tang Shu was not afraid, but the two subordinates of the tattooed man were always trying to come over and pull her, and their smiles were very disgusting.

The street was narrow and cramped, and she couldn't hide away.

Just when she was about to get pissed off, a hand suddenly reached out from behind her, grabbed her wrist and pulled her behind him.

Tang Shi looked up in surprise and saw Zhang Li's profile turned slightly.

How come he followed me?

Zhang Li kicked away the gangster who was trying to pull Tang Shu away, then turned around and glanced at her quickly.

Seeing that she was not implicated, he ignored Ning Hao who was not far away and pulled her to the end of the street.

There was no one chasing after them, so Zhang Li pulled Tang Shu and turned two street corners before stopping.

Tang Shu took two deep breaths and asked him,

"Brother, why are you here?"

Zhang Li pursed his lips and said, "I'm worried. Come and have a look."

Tang Shu nodded, then looked into his eyes with a deliberate smile, and asked sourly,

"Oh... so your little sister Xiao Lan doesn't want to eat?"

Zhang Li looked up at her but said nothing.

"Let's go." He walked forward.

Tang Shu grabbed his wrist and immediately let go when he turned around.

"Aren't you going back to help? Ning Hao is alone..."

Zhang Li shook his head, "I'm not familiar with him."

Tang Shu reached out to pull him again, but this time she pulled his fingers instead of his wrist.

She advised softly,

"Brother, let's go back and help. Aren't you working in that bar? Having a better relationship with Ning Hao should help you with your job. Besides... that family might come to the neighborhood to make trouble again. Ning Hao is familiar with this area... In short, this is a good opportunity. It will be good for you to make friends with him..."

Zhang Li looked at Tang Shu, not understanding why someone could speak of such a dirty mind so openly and as if it were a matter of course.

But her eyes were so clear, she pulled his finger and shook it gently, and her tone was also considerate of him.

It's a bit strange, since they have only met three times...

Finally, Zhang Li let out a breath.

"Okay, I'll go back and help."

He pointed to the street ahead and told Tang Shu, "Go from there and you'll be able to get back to the community."

"What should I say? Of course I'll go with you~"

As soon as he finished speaking, the girl had already run out two steps, turned around and urged him anxiously, "Zhang Li, hurry up!"

".......oh."

This was the first time she called his name, and it was also the first time that Zhang Li felt that his name was quite pleasant to the ear.

He looked around, picked up a discarded stool leg from the ground, and strode after him.
