"Qixi Festival?" Xia Ni was stunned, took out her mobile phone, dropped down the menu, and looked at the month card, really, on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, a good day for the reunion of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

"Sister Rani, you seem to have lost your soul, I'll invite you to eat steak when you go. ”

"What kind of steak to eat, it's all countdown, do you still have the heart to celebrate the festival?" Xia Ni thought with her hair, she knew what medicine was sold in this kid's gourd, it was not easy to learn well, and it was a bad one. It's only been a few days since I came to the police force, and I've learned to pick up girls, and it's no one else, it's her beautiful captain.

"Sister Ni, why are you so strict, let's talk about tomorrow's things tomorrow, brother, I don't mean anything else, I just see that you are very boring alone, and I want to take you out to breathe, should you not sue me, you have already made an appointment with another man, right?" Zou Xiaokai said, his heart twitched, today, the time and place are all right, and it is strange if no one makes an appointment,

"Ask you a pig's head, is your sister and I such a casual person?" Xia Ni glanced at him, took the flower casually, and sniffed it, it was indeed quite fragrant, as a girl, for the first time in her life, she was given a rose, and she was still a little excited in her heart. In the past, when she was in the police academy, there were many students from the same school chasing her, but her personality was too spicy, not only was she a champion in physical training, but also a firearm shooting was among the best.

"Hehe, let's go, I've booked all the seats and paid a deposit of fifty yuan." ”

"Poor burning. Looking at his sincere appearance, Xia Ni felt a little unbearable, Zou Xiaokai was the object of her key cultivation in the future, and refusing at this time was a little unreasonable. Besides, when I go back, I also go to the night market stalls to buy and eat, so why bother to go far.

"It's not expensive, I specially checked it on the Internet, booked a two-seater, that store is very popular, and it lines up every day all year round. Zou Xiaokai smiled and raised his watch: "Sister Ni, it's too late if you don't move." ”

"Hurry up, you go out first, I'll change my clothes. ”

A few minutes later, when Xia Ni appeared in front of Zou Xiaokai again, it was like two people before. Women are like this, no matter how beautiful a woman is, when she wears a military dress, her femininity will be greatly reduced, but once she changes into casual clothes, she will have two completely different temperaments.

"Sister Ni, if you wear this, you will kill many men. The two walked side by side and entered the elevator, and Zou Xiaokai closed the door while complimenting.

"What nonsense, I'm restrained enough. Xia Ni is right, it is indeed very restrained, skinny jeans, pure white elastic shoes, and a beige short sleeve, supporting the abundance of the chest trembling slightly.

This kind of style is neither trendy nor outdated, but it matches her own temperament very well, because she likes sports very much, so she can always radiate infinite vitality in her gestures. Especially the flawless vest line on the abdomen, which is not something that can be practiced by running a few steps casually, it takes a lot of effort to do it. So every time she goes to the gym, someone who claims to be a manager invites her to be a part-time coach, but there are clear rules in the system that in-service police officers are not allowed to work part-time and start a business privately.

The place to eat is similar to what Xia Ni expected, it is the kind of foreign restaurant whose name is all in English, and the waiters all comb the big back of the old Shanghai thirties, and don't speak good Mandarin, but have to turn on the semi-automatic mode, and from time to time they will drag a sentence or two of English, regardless of whether the menu is called a menu, it has to be called a menu, and this is not a livestock market, what kind of cattle to buy.

The funniest thing is that as far as the eye can see, the Chinese people in the entire restaurant can't even look like half a foreigner.

"Xiao Kai, what do you think in your head, this kind of place is expensive and expensive, and you will lose half a monthly salary for a meal. Xia Ni looked at the menu, smacking her tongue secretly, and feeling distressed, a serving of foie gras is hundreds, a bottle of red wine is hundreds, and a plate of vegetable salad is ninety-nine, it is better to grab it directly.

"Sister Ni, you be quiet, if you come, you will be safe, I don't feel sorry for you. Zou Xiaokai looked at it, knowing that Xia Ni couldn't do it, so he coughed lightly at the waiter and nodded to himself.

Seeing his ease of appearance, Xia Ni was a little inexplicable: "Do you often go to this kind of place to take care of your sister?"

"Where, when I was studying, I worked part-time, worked in a Western restaurant, and cut beef slices for people, and at that time I was thinking, when can I straighten my waist and go to this kind of place to eat a big meal, and also enjoy the taste of being served. When Zou Xiaokai said this, Xia Ni was not surprised, for a working class like them, a meal here was indeed a luxury.

"Cut, vanity, if it were me, I wouldn't think so, the money I used to eat here to masturbate, I can masturbate it several times. ”

"Sister Ni, you don't understand, this is called feelings, you must have feelings, a person can only learn to earn money if he first learns to spend money, spending money is to establish ambition, and earning money is to realize ambition. ”

"What bullshit logic, who taught you?" Xia Ni knew that this is how the loser came about.

"Brother Lin. Zou Xiaokai shrank his neck and explained.

"I knew it. Xia Ni smiled angrily: "That guy, the dog can't spit out ivory from his mouth, no wonder his private life is so inappropriate, he deserves to be kicked." ”

"But I think what Brother Lin said is quite reasonable, oh yes, he also told me that what the poor lack is not money, but the ambition to become a master. ”

"Oh, that's what he said? This is in a TV series. Xia Ni couldn't cry or laugh a little, she didn't know how many such thinking modules Lynch instilled in Zou Xiaokai, a policeman, if his mind was filled with this kind of self-interested thoughts, then it would not be far from corruption, once people have a corrupt heart, like a slogan for serving the people, it can only be regarded as a slogan.

"Sister Ni, don't you want to be promoted and make a fortune?"

"I don't want to. Xia Ni shook her head: "If I wanted to, I would have followed Sun Delong a long time ago, in fact, it is good to be ordinary, the higher you climb, the less like you live." ”

"But sometimes, people are in the rivers and lakes, you can't help yourself, you don't climb up, others will push you up, and ......" Zou Xiaokai said this, suddenly wanted to stop talking, he regretted a little, he shouldn't have passed by the door of Team Liang's office in the middle of the night, but driven by curiosity, he overheard the mysterious phone.

"And what?"

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, I just think you shouldn't just be a vice-captain, you're better than a lot of senior executives. ”

"Xiao Kai, did you inquire about something?" The more Xia Ni looked at him, the more she felt that he was weird, although this kid usually talks a lot, but it is all trivial, but today is different, he seems to have taken the wrong medicine, inexplicably discussed life and ideals, and finally talked about promotion and salary increase, and said it so strictly.

"No. Faced with Xia Ni's questioning, Zou Xiaokai hurriedly covered it up.

"Whether there is or not, now is not the time to be distracted, hurry up and eat, go back and rest after eating, your task tomorrow is very simple, you will follow wherever I go, and you will not be left behind." ”

"Understood. ”

While the two were talking, the ordered dishes had been served one after another. A steak that is said to have been imported from Hokkaido, second only to Japanese Kobe beef, is thinly sliced by the knife chef and served with cuttlefish salt or lemon salt. A piece of roasted oily foie gras topped with a few sesame seeds-sized black truffles imported from overseas.

These two main dishes alone are worth more than 2,000 yuan.

"What the hell, this is not cooked, can you do it?" When the chef opened the steak, Xia Ni observed that the meat was still bloodshot, is this for people to eat? This is for dogs, right?

"Hello Miss, you want a five-ripe steak. The chef glanced at Xia Ni and explained helplessly, saying where did this firewood girl come from, she looks very handsome, but her temper is not small.

"What's the five maturity, I think it's you cutting corners, right?" Xia Ni heard his explanation, but felt very far-fetched, this craft is not as good as what she does at home.

"Sister Ni, the steak is like this, half-cooked is the best, you can taste it. Zou Xiaokai's face was full of black lines, his intuition was extremely embarrassed, and he hurriedly gave Xia Ni a look, it seems that the captain is also the first time to spend in this kind of high-end restaurant, and all the food stalls he went to before was.

"Really?" Xia Ni realized that the steak didn't seem to be overcooked, so she quickly picked up a piece with a fork and put it in her mouth to taste it, it tasted really good, delicious and chewy.

"Sister Ni, if you don't know how to ask me in the future, don't be anxious, this is not our territory. Waiting for the chef to leave, Zou Xiaokai said with a red face.

As soon as Xia Ni stuck out her tongue, she also felt a little embarrassed, so she simply lowered her head and ate it.

"Xiao Kai, are you okay, or AA?" When it's time to settle the bill after the meal, Xia Ni is a little distressed about this guy's wallet, the internship period has just passed, and the monthly income is about the same as that of a college graduate from a bachelor's degree, where can you afford to do this.

"Don't tease Sister Ni, aren't you slapping me in the face, where is the reason for a lady to pay the bill. ”

"Okay, okay, you pure man, okay. Xia Ni felt angry and funny, she didn't know why, men nowadays like to pay bills so much, even if they don't have money or don't have much money, they have to slap their swollen faces and become fat. And no matter where a beautiful woman goes, she just needs to brush her face.

After settling the bill, the two walked side by side on the street, very tacitly, no one said where to go, just walked aimlessly.

It's a holiday, the streets are full of roses selling, and couples are holding hands, talking and laughing, immersed in their own happy world.

"Sister Ni, what do you think about the two of us, the two of us have a holiday, and the two of us single dogs come out to join in the fun. ”

"Didn't you say you were going to come to eat steak?" Xia Ni walked all the way, looking around, without waiting for Zou Xiaokai to respond, she said again: "I know what you mean, you are full of wine and food, and on the day of great joy, it is time to mention the confession, right?"

"You...... Do you know everything?" Zou Xiaokai blushed, and he couldn't resist it at all, how could this captain take the initiative when it comes to emotional problems than him.

"Cut, just that little Jiujiu in your heart, who can't see that the old lady is a girl who doesn't have a hairy hair?" Xia Ni said, patting him on the shoulder, holding it with both hands, and looking at each other: "Don't do this kind of stupid thing in the future, it's nothing if you send me flowers and invite me to dinner, just like you said, you must have some feelings to be a man, I am willing to satisfy you because you are my brother and comrade-in-arms, not what you imagined." ”

"Sister Ni, you really don't feel anything for me?" The boy turned his face and looked at the face that haunted him, this was the first time in his life that he boldly pursued the woman he had a crush on, but unfortunately this was just the beginning, and he was doused by the other party with a basin of cold water.

"Xiao Kai, I don't want to send you a good person card, but we are not suitable, I really can't accept the love of sister and brother, forgive me, okay?" Xia Ni didn't know why, when she rejected Zou Xiaokai, there was an inexplicable sourness in her heart, from the police academy to the police force for so many years, she has degraded from the initial longing to numbness, love seems to be just a pool of stagnant water for her, no matter how others stir it up, it is difficult to touch her heart that has been sealed for a long time. Because she is not a person who is willing to make do, she can't do things that are in love for the sake of falling in love.

It is this firm character that is close to spiritual cleanliness that makes her feel like a fish in water in her work, and casts a perseverance to punish evil and promote good wholeheartedly.

"I know, you still like Brother Lin like that. Zou Xiaokai lowered his head, loss was inevitable, but it was more heartache, the first time, it was so confused.

"I like him and I can't be with him. Xia Ni shook her head, she admitted that there was indeed something she liked in that person, but she just liked it, not to mention that he was still a married man, heh, probably an excellent man, there will be many women who like it at the same time.

"Since we can't be together, then why do we have to be reluctant?" Zou Xiaokai was a little unconvinced.

"It's not reluctant, my relationship with him is limited to good friends, he saved my life, I'm willing to help him, it's as simple as that. ”

"I wish you happiness. With that, the boy turned and walked away.

Looking at the departing back, Xia Ni subconsciously pursed her lips, she didn't mean to hurt anyone, but life is not cooking, it is impossible to prepare all the ingredients before cooking. The same is true of feelings, first bitter and then sweet, and then always. She knows that even if Lynch comes back, she still won't get anything, but it doesn't matter, what matters is what she has done for this and what kind of effort she has put in, maybe this is the meaning of survival, fighting for the people she cares about is really alive.

When she was stunned, the mobile phone rang, and the SWAT team turned it on and asked her to do pre-war mobilization together......
