Chapter 38 Jia Dongxu is too miserable



"Mengjing, why did you come here? I've been waiting outside for a long time."

Xu Mengjing walked forward quickly with her bag on her shoulder, "Why are you waiting for me so early in the morning?"

"Waiting for you to go to work together. Look, I made breakfast for you."

Jia Dongxu lifted the gauze to reveal the tortilla inside.

"You can eat by yourself. I'm going to be late for work and it's too late."

Xu Mengjing didn't mean to look down on corn cakes.

Yesterday I was reviewing well, but Jia Zhang and Silly Zhu delayed a lot of time, so I had to work overtime and stay up late to review.

This morning it was Xu Mengjing's turn to broadcast. She got up late and saw that she was going to be late. She was very anxious. She walked out hurriedly, Jia Dongxu following closely behind her.

"Mengjing, no matter how anxious you are, you still have to eat."

"Mengjing, take the cake and eat it while you're walking."

Xu Mengjing was so preoccupied with the broadcast that she couldn't think of breakfast.

"You really don't have to worry about me, just eat it yourself."

"You can't eat it if it's made just for you."

"..."

Jia Dongxu kept talking behind Xu Mengjing, like a monk chanting sutras, and Xu Mengjing was tired of hearing it.

"Okay then, give me the cake. I'll eat it when I'm free."

His efforts finally paid off. Jia Dongxu was so excited that he stuffed all the corn cakes into Xu Mengjing's hands.

"You must try it when you have time. It's so fragrant and sweet."

"Ding ding ding ding ding..."

A car bell rang behind him, and Lin Bai rode to work.

Since he got a bicycle, he didn't have to get up early. Every time everyone in the courtyard was gone, he was the last one to go out.

"Give it up, let it go."

Lin Bai greeted the two people in front of him while riding his bicycle.

Jia Dongxu stepped aside consciously, and Xu Mengjing also stepped aside after being stunned for a moment.

When the car passed by and she saw the back seat was empty, she subconsciously yelled, "Stop!"

"Squeak!" Lin Bai stopped the car with a sound, "What's the matter?"

"Can you give me a ride? I'm almost late for my shift."

She had an anxious look on her face, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead. She was obviously very anxious.

"Come up."

Lin Bai sat in the back seat and pursed his lips. Xu Mengjing smiled happily, took two steps and jumped on the bicycle.

Unexpectedly, he jumped up so fast that he staggered and almost fell down after sitting down. In desperation, he grabbed Lin Bai's clothes and finally sat firmly.

The moment she grabbed her clothes, Xu Mengjing felt the sense of security brought by Lin Bai's strong shoulders and blushed.

"Sit tight, I'm leaving!"

Lin Bai's feet slid on the ground for two steps, then he kicked the car very fast and ran towards the steel rolling mill.

This operation made Jia Dongxu stupid.

He stayed on the spot with his hands hanging down, no different from the fool in the village.

People waited, and cakes were delivered, but in the end they ran away with Lin Bai, and all their work was in vain.

Jia Dongxu's mind went blank and his whole body became limp.

Lin Bai rode all the way and rushed Xu Mengjing to the steel rolling mill before the bell.

As soon as the car stopped, Xu Mengjing jumped out of the car and took out a dollar and handed it to Lin Bai.

"Here, I'll give you the fare. Thank you."

Lin Bai waved his hand, "I didn't give it to you for money, take it back."

"I know you're not doing it for money, but I have to repay you for helping me, otherwise I'll feel uneasy."

Xu Mengjing wanted to repay her for such a small favor. Compared with the beasts, she was like one in the sky and one on the ground.

If you help the beasts and don't take the opportunity to chop you twice, it will be considered a kindness, and there will be no reward.

Lin Bai saw that she was holding a cake in her hand, and he hadn't had breakfast yet. "You can repay me by sharing the cake in your hand with me."

"Well."

Xu Mengjing readily agreed, leaving two for herself and giving the rest to Lin Bai. Lin Bai took the cake and nodded.

"Okay, come on in, don't waste any time."

Xu Mengjing nodded and ran into the factory.

Lin Bai put the cake in front of his eyes and took a look. The aroma of the cake entered his nose. He picked up one and took a bite.

Not to mention, it’s fragrant and sweet!

Xu Mengjing was not late with Lin Bai's help, but Jia Dongxu, who came on foot, was miserable and was half an hour late.

He ran all the way to the workshop panting and was scolded by the uncle.

"Why are you here now? Look how late you are."

"The team leader came over just now to check that you were not there, and I was scolded by him."

"I'm sorry, I was delayed because of something at home. I'll make you a nice glass of wine later to apologize."

"Humph, that's pretty much it. Stop standing around and go to work."

Jia Dongxu was immersed in the grief of Xu Mengjing being cut off and couldn't help himself. He couldn't think of work. His work efficiency was extremely low and he didn't do much work all morning.

I finally managed to wait until noon to eat, so I immediately got off my tools and went to the cafeteria to get some food.

The cafeteria was dark and every line was full of people. Jia Dongxu found a shorter line and got in line.

Being cut off by Lin Bai today was an accident. Tomorrow morning I will go directly to her door to wait for her. "

Knock on her door and ask her to get up early so she won't be in such a rush like this morning. "

The tortillas were only given to her, not to anyone who asked for them. I didn't eat any of them, which made me hungry all morning.

Jia Dongxu was thinking about things in his mind and unknowingly lined up at the window.

"One piece of rice, one piece of cabbage..."

Jia Dongxu put the lunch box into the window without raising his head.

"Next person!"

The lunch box was handed back. Jia Dongxu took the lunch box and left the team. He took two steps to put it in the lunch box and frowned.

Who brought this meal? The rice and vegetables were too little, less than half of the usual amount.

Jia Dongxu looked back and saw that it was Shazhu who was cooking, and Shazhu smiled contemptuously at Jia Dongxu.

His fire was suddenly ignited. He was bullying me for no apparent reason!

"Silly Zhu, you filled everyone else's lunch boxes, why did you only give me this little?"

"Why do you have less than him? I'm not a machine. It's normal for my hands to shake more or less."

"Then why don't my hands shake when I'm serving food to others, but my hands shake when it's my turn."

"Hey, I said Jia Dongxu, are you looking for trouble? If you want to eat or not, get out of here. The people behind you are still queuing up."

"Yeah, go ahead and don't stop us from lining up."

"It's not normal for the cook to use a cup to measure a little more or less. Don't be so stingy."

Jia Dongxu stood in front of the window and hindered the people behind him from eating, so he had to step aside first.

I'm not convinced, it's obviously Silly Zhu's fault to deliberately make things difficult for me.

I haven't eaten in the morning and I've been hungry all morning. How can I eat enough with such a small amount of food? If I don't eat enough, I have no energy to work in the afternoon and my uncle will scold me again.

Jia Dongxu, who had been holding back his anger and had no place to vent it, and was bullied by Silly Zhu, finally burst out.
