Lu Zhou was a little surprised. He pulled out his phone and saw that Yang had actually sent him a message.

[Teacher Lu, my apology. I have a meeting at the office and I can't go back. Maybe ten o'clock until I get back. I'll pay you double your salary for your inconvenience. Hope you can forgive me.]

Double salary ...

Which means, 400 yuan per hour?

Lu Zhou took a deep breath as he thought, "Mom, don't be polite. You don't even have to come back tonight! "

He knew that would not happen.

Han Mengqi poked her head out of the kitchen, looked at Lu Zhou, and asked, "Are you eating chicken or flavored beef? There's only sandwiches in the fridge. The woman locked the door so we couldn't order food delivery. ”

Lu Zhou looked at the frozen sandwich in his hand and could not help but ask, "You ate it for dinner?"

"Is there a problem?" Ask Han Mengqi. He doesn't care at all.

Of course there's a problem!

Lu Zhou sighed. He stood up from the sofa and walked towards the kitchen.

Han Mengqi asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?" He took a step back.

"I'll make food."

"Can you cook?" Ask Han Mengqi. He looked at Lu Zhou with his eyes wide open, as if he did not believe him.

Lu Zhou washed the pot, smiled, and said, "Yes, you think I'm the same as you?"

Han Mengqi raised her chin dejectedly and asked, "What do you mean?"

"none. If you don't have something to do, go and read the thing I wrote. It's in the living room. It will help you, "said Lu Zhou as he rinsed the pot. He didn't even look.

This family did not cook for too long so there was a layer of dust on top of the frying pan. Lu Zhou had to wash it many times to clean it thoroughly.

In addition to sandwiches, refrigerators surprisingly also have some fresh food. As Han Mengqi said, it was "that woman" to make a salad.

“I'll fry cabbage and fry chicken breast with chili. That's two plates in there. I'll cook two cups of rice. If I eat too much, I eat more. "

Lu Zhou washed his hands and placed the cutting board on the kitchen table. He used his experienced hands and cut the food. Chicken breast is a bit tricky because it has to boil it first in water. The temperature can not be too high, otherwise the meat will become hard, making it difficult to chew.

However, to Lu Zhou, this was no problem.

By the time her mother was sick, she would cook for her family almost every day. Even though she hadn't been in the kitchen for two years, she still hadn't forgotten what she learned.

Han Mengqi sat on the living room sofa and listened to the cutting sound from the kitchen. He looked at the outline that Lu Zhou had written to him and felt so annoyed that he could not focus.

After a while, the kitchen door opened. The smell of food splashed to the tip of his nose.

Han Mengqi's nose twitched. His mouth began to water and his stomach rumbled.

Lu Zhou's voice called out to him.

"Let's eat if you're hungry. Add your own rice. "

Han Mengqi wanted to say some evil words. He looked at the revised textbook on the coffee table and then at the food on the table. In the end, he decided not to say those inappropriate words. Instead, he muttered, "OK" and went to the bathroom.

People generally know the difference between good intentions and bad intentions.

Han Mengqi washed her hands and served half a bowl of rice to herself. He sat across from Lu Zhou.

He looked at the dishes cooked at home and hesitated. He picked up a piece of cabbage with his chopsticks and suddenly looked at Lu Zhou suspiciously, "You didn't put anything strange in here, did you?"

Lu Zhou heard it and almost choked on the rice. He lifted his head to stare angrily at this girl before saying, “Are you crazy? I really ate it too. "

Han Mengqi flushed. He realized how stupid the question was. He did not want to admit his stupidity and said stubbornly, "Is there no medicine where if you eat it first, you are immune to poison ..."

Lu Zhou said rudely, “You must be stupid for watching too much television. Don't eat it if you don't want to. Go and eat your sandwich. "

Han Mengqi stuck out her tongue and did not say anything as she continued to eat.

While eating, the two did not exchange a single word.

They eat slowly. Lu Zhou finished the rice and was about to stand up, but when he saw Han Mengqi go to the kitchen and serve a bowl of rice to himself, he was shocked.

Isn't this his third bowl?

Why is this girl eating so much?

Lu Zhou stared at his tiny body in disbelief. It seems he can't eat much.

Maybe he just added a little rice every time?

Lu Zhou walked up to the rice cooker, opened it, and was immediately startled.

There's nothing else?

Lu Zhou looked back at Han Mengqi who was eating ferociously.

"What ... Are you looking at me?" Ask Han Mengqi. He watched Lu Zhou look at him and felt embarrassed. He swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, "What if I give you some?"

"No, thank you ... You are still growing, you should eat more," Lu Zhou said as he nodded. He then placed the cutlery and bowl into the kitchen sink.

He was about to finish cleaning the kitchen when Han Mengqi walked in with her empty bowl and looked at Lu Zhou apologetically, "How about .. I wash the dishes?"

This man worked too hard to the point that he felt ashamed.

"It's okay. Just leave it there. Go use this time and study in the living room, "said Lu Zhou. He washes dishes and doesn't even look.

Study again ?!

Lu Zhou finished cleaning the kitchen and walked back to the living room. When she saw the girl reading the material she wrote, she smiled in her heart. He sat down next to her and asked, "How? Can you understand?"

"Yes .. that's too easy."

"Easy? You messed up a lot of these easy questions, ” said Lu Zhou. He took out the last exam paper and said, “For example, this question. It asks you to determine the relationship between a line and a circle according to the equation. As I see it, it's a free sign. "

Han Mengqi pouted and argued, "You've gone to college, of course this is easy for you."

"Very? I didn't learn this at university. I haven't touched on this type of question in a year. I just saw him this afternoon, ” Lu Zhou replied with a smile.

“Yeah, this is my math level. Do what you want, ”said Han Mengqi. He gave up, leaned back on the sofa, and crossed his legs.

"You're surrendering? I think I can still help you, "said Lu Zhou.

“You don't have to entertain me. I know my own situation. I basically did not study last semester, ” said Han Mengqi with an expressionless face as she crossed her arms.

Lu Zhou smiled and replied, "You don't even have the courage to try?"

"Don't try luring me with it."

Ah…

He didn't think he would see the trick.

The atmosphere was cold again. Han Mengqi was playing on her phone. He did not know why he did not lock himself in his room anymore. However, he did not say a word to Lu Zhou.

The sky gradually darkened and Lu Zhou turned on the living room lights.

By this time he realized that owning a big house was not a good thing.

The more people the better. It's pretty empty if anyone's alone. The dark and empty house looked like it could suck one's soul.

Lu Zhou picked up the book from the bookshelf and sat down on the living room sofa as he began to read.

Han Mengqi was playing on her phone as she silently looked at him and silently muttered.

"Thank you."

"What?" Ask Lu Zhou. He turned his face towards her slightly and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Cooking you .. is delicious," Han Mengqi said in a stiff tone as she continued to stare at her phone.

"It's a very simple thing ... Your mother never cooked it for you?" Ask Lu Zhou.

Han Mengqi's facial expression was cold as she sneered, “She? He does not cook ... I barely even saw him. "

No wonder he ate so much. He may not have eaten home cooked food in a long time!

Lu Zhou thought his cooking skills had improved, but it turned out that he had misunderstood.

"What about your father?"

Lu Zhou immediately regretted asking this question because the answer was obvious.

"He's fighting a legal case with my mother, but it should be done right away" Han Mengqi said with a face that was still expressionless as she hugged her legs while sitting on the sofa ..

Lu Zhou's throat slightly choked. She did not know why, but seeing him like this made her feel sympathy towards him.

Han Mengqi stared straight ahead and suddenly spoke.

"... In the future, can you cook for me?"

Lu Zhou thought for a while and said, "If you study hard, I'll think about it."

“... Wow, prerequisites. Lame, ” Han Mengqi replied before turning her head.

Lu Zhou said, "After all, my job performance will be evaluated. If your mom thinks I'm doing a bad job, she can fire me, okay? ”

“There is no solution for that. The woman likes to force others to do things, ” Han Mengqi said. He lowered his head and hugged his knees tightly as he said, "I'll try hard, but there's no guarantee."

"OK," Lu Zhou smiled, "then we will be satisfied with that."

The couple began discussing school work. The tension is initially high, but it quickly relaxes.

It was about eleven o'clock when the sound of the car came from below.

Soon after, the entrance opened. Madam Yang finally came home.

Han Mengqi silently looked at her mother and did not say anything. He went back to his room.

The woman's face remained the same as usual. He looked at the textbooks and summaries on the coffee table. His brows relaxed and he slightly bowed to Lu Zhou. His tired voice sounded very sorry as he said, “I'm very sorry for delaying your time. What if I send you home? "

"No need, I can call DiDi," Lu Zhou said as he waved his hand. She smiled and said, “Let's stay home with your daughter. He still needed a lot of work to build the foundation of mathematics. I gave him an outline of the study. If he spends time studying it, I'm sure he can catch up. ”

“Thank you, Master Lu. I'll remind him, ” said Mrs. Who with a smile while nodding his head.

"No problem. I'm goin. Oh yeah, you guys need to communicate more. I mean, about studying. After all, learning cannot be rushed. This will create the opposite effect if you push it too hard. It is better to let the child find his own problem-solving rhythm. ”

Mrs. Yang offered to send Lu Zhou home again, but Lu Zhou still refused. He got off the elevator and called a DiDi taxi.

After he got in the car, ma'am. The one using WeChat paid and sent money to Lu Zhou's phone.

The first five hours are 200 per hour, the last five hours are 400 per hour, which adds up to 3,000 yuan.

He looked at the pay of 3000 yuan and could not help but think.

The rich really don't value money ...

He only had 3000 or so in his bank account and he instantly doubled his bank account.

If not for the summer classes he had to attend, he would have worked here every day ...
