Chapter 2 The deceptive system

But there seemed to be some doubts in his tone, as if he was not sure about the identity of the person in front of him.

Suddenly, a loud snoring sound came from the ward. Xu Nan withdrew his eyes from Lu Nanzhou and looked at the source of the sound.

The patient who was originally lying on bed No. 4 turned over and was sleeping soundly.

Xu Nan: "..."

Now, no matter how stupid she is, she can understand what's going on.

Because she cried so sadly just now, it was all in vain.

Standing at the door of the ward, this tall, handsome man wearing a white coat was Lu Nanzhou himself.

Xu Nan touched his nose and lowered his head in embarrassment.

When the nurse saw Lu Nanzhou coming, she decisively packed her things and prepared to run away, leaving only one sentence:

"Doctor Lu, your family members are here to see you. If nothing happens, I'll leave first."

*

Returning to the family building attached to the hospital, the atmosphere in the room was extremely awkward.

Lu Nanzhou stood in the living room and looked at Xu Nan, who had been standing at the door since returning home, and asked:

"Is there gold on the ground? Why are you staring at the floor tiles?"

"The floor is polished and spotless. You can't even see a speck of dust. It's extremely clean."

Lu Nanzhou: "...so?"

"…You have mysophobia."

Xu Nan's tone was very sure, and he even nodded.

Lu Nanzhou: "..."

Xu Nan lowered his head and looked at the clean and reflective floor tiles, feeling that he was about to get sick from embarrassment.

After living for almost twenty years, this was the first time that she had to die in such a society.

She moved her toes and felt that she could create three bedrooms and one living room.

After finishing speaking, she quietly raised her head and looked at Lu Nanzhou. She would be lying if she said she didn't feel guilty.

After all, his wife not only admitted her mistake in front of her colleagues, but also cried in mourning along the way.

This scene will definitely add a strong color to his glorious career.

Fortunately, Lu Nanzhou didn't say anything. He just took her to the living room, asked her if she was hungry, and then went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

*

At the dinner table, the two of them were speechless.

Xu Nan really didn't know what she should say to this cheap husband. After all, she had only known him for more than two hours.

She looked at the food on the table. There were three dishes and one soup, namely hand-shredded cabbage, cold shredded chicken, stir-fried pork with mushrooms, and a pot of fragrant chicken soup. The combination of meat and vegetables was suitable, which was very appetizing.

This cooking skill made Xu Nan, a well-known food blogger, couldn't help but admire her.

Xu Nan took her chopsticks and looked at the dishes on the table. They were all delicious and delicious, which aroused the greed in her stomach. Her stomach growled unsatisfactorily, which was very loud in the empty room.

Xu Nan's face turned red instantly.

Jiu Min, this is so embarrassing.

Xu Nan lowered his head, his eyes tilted involuntarily to the opposite side, hoping that the other party did not hear him.

When he raised his eyes, by chance, he caught the fleeting smile on the corner of the man's mouth.

Sure enough he heard it!

Xu Nan's face turned red again. She embarrassedly took her chopsticks and silently poked at the white rice grains in the bowl.

Suddenly, a pair of chopsticks reached out to her bowl and picked up a piece of meat for her.

Xu Nan raised his head blankly, looked at Lu Nanzhou, and saw the man saying to himself in a gentle voice:

"Aren't you hungry? Eat quickly. The food will be cold in a while."

Xu Nan looked at the man's face and hesitated to speak. He almost wanted to speak, but stopped when the words reached his lips.

She hesitated and thought about whether she should apologize to him for what happened today. After thinking for a moment, she suppressed the words that came to her lips.

Forget it, let's talk about such an embarrassing thing one more time just to help him remember it one more time.

Doesn't she want to lose face?

Xu Nan lowered his head and worked silently, without saying a word, and directly ate two bowls of rice to vent his anger.

*

After dinner, Xu Nan took the initiative to wash dishes in the kitchen. Lu Nanzhou stopped him, but he couldn't resist Xu Nan's enthusiasm.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks, she put them on a nearby shelf to dry, and then started cleaning up the stove.

First, he packed up the pile of seasonings he had just used and placed them neatly. Then Xu Nan looked at the kitchen knife on the chopping board, preparing to pick it up and clean it.

As soon as I got the kitchen knife, before I could turn on the faucet, a golden light appeared in front of my eyes.

A mechanical voice sounded in my ears: "Welcome to the God of Cooking system to get rich!"

The sudden sound startled Xu Nan, and she threw the kitchen knife out of her hand uncontrollably.

A loud "clang" sound startled Lu Nanzhou who was in the living room.

"What happened?"

Lu Nanzhou's voice came from far away.

Then panicked footsteps sounded, and Lu Nanzhou strode over.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Xu Nan quickly wiped his hands with his apron. When he looked up again, he saw that Lu Nanzhou had already walked in front of him.

She pointed to the kitchen knife that had fallen into the sink with a harmless expression and said to Lu Nanzhou: "I applied dishwashing liquid, but my hand slipped and fell without me holding it."

After saying that, he touched his chest again to soothe his trembling little heart, looking as if he was still in shock.

Lu Nanzhou just thought she was scared, reached out and fished out the kitchen knife from the sink, rinsed it with water, and placed it again on the chopping board.

He raised his arm and looked at the time on his watch. It was almost six o'clock in the evening.

He has to go back to the hospital for duty tonight and won't be back until noon tomorrow.

He then raised his head and murmured to Xu: "I will go back to the hospital to be on duty tonight. If I don't go home tonight, you can rest early at home."

After finishing speaking, he walked to the living room, took out a red notebook from the drawer, returned to the kitchen door, and handed the red notebook to Xu Nan.

Xu Nan was stunned for a moment, thinking what the hell was this?

Xu Nan met the man's gaze as soon as he raised his head. Lu Nanzhou was very tall. Xu Nan's visual estimate was that he should be over 180cm tall.

At this moment, the two of them were facing each other, which made Lu Nanzhou feel a little condescending.

Fortunately, the man didn't feel oppressive to her. Seeing Xu Nan staring at the red notebook and refusing to pick it up, Lu Nanzhou thought she was embarrassed.

There was an apology in his tone, and he explained in a gentle voice:

"This is my salary passbook. You can use it for your monthly living expenses in the future."

"I have been working overtime in the past few days. I asked Aunt Li to go out with you tomorrow and buy you some daily necessities."

Lu Nanzhou looked at Xu Nan and felt a little nervous. After they got married, they spent very little time together.

As for his little wife, even though they have been married for nearly a year, they still don't understand each other.

The county town is too far away from his hometown, and he only goes back during the Chinese New Year. The last time he met Xu Nan was when they got married.

The girl's eyes were too pure, which made Lu Nanzhou feel uncomfortable. He touched his nose unnaturally, and then murmured to Xu:

"It's almost six o'clock. I'm on duty at the hospital. If you're home alone, remember to lock the door."

After speaking, he pointed to the landline next to him:

"Call me if you have any questions. I wrote the office number on the note."

After saying that, he put the bankbook into Xu Nan's hand and strode away.

After Xu Nan watched Lu Nanzhou leave, he looked at the little red book in his hand with a fresh look on his face, turning it over and over.

No wonder she felt it was new, it was actually the first time she had seen this thing so big.

Being accustomed to mobile payment, she silently opened the little red book, lowered her head to study it, and counted the numbers on it.

"One...ten...hundred..."

Xu Nan was shocked. She counted it many times, thinking she had made a mistake. The balance in the passbook was... 705 yuan.
