Chapter 2 I’m so hungry and want to eat

After driving on the provincial highway for 20 minutes, the high-rise buildings in T City could be vaguely seen. It was getting closer and closer to the urban area, and at the same time, it was getting closer and closer to the time to go to work. Li Ming was a little anxious, because he would be deducted for being late. of.

It happened that at this time, the vehicle in front suddenly slowed down, and the lane next to it was crowded with cars. Yes, there was a traffic jam. Li Ming let out a long sigh and glanced at his phone. It was 08:11.

"It's over, there are less than twenty minutes left." Li Ming leaned back and muttered to himself in despair.

There is no other way, just wait. It is useless to be anxious at this time, and many vehicles behind are honking their horns non-stop. Some drivers are also anxious to stick their heads out of the car and look ahead, but there are only private cars in front of them. I couldn't see anything strange, and I had no idea what was happening at the front.

After waiting anxiously for a while, Li Ming picked up his phone again and looked at it. At 08:22, eleven minutes had passed. At this time, many drivers began to get off the car and walk to the front. Li Ming also had some. A little anxiously, he stuck his head out of the car, and vaguely seemed to see some surging heads.

At this moment, Li Ming's cell phone rang suddenly. It was someone calling. When he saw the call note: Manager, his first reaction was: It's over.

Li Ming answered the phone, and a woman's voice came quickly , " Li Ming, do you know about today's regular company meeting?! Where are you now? Have you prepared your information?!"

"I ... I'm on the road now, stuck in traffic ... " Li Ming replied.

"I don't want to hear excuses. Come to the company on time before 8:30 and prepare all the materials. If you don't arrive after 8:30, then you won't come to work in the future ... beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep " After saying that, the call was hung up directly.

Li Ming looked at the many cars in front of him, put his cell phone in his pocket, opened the door and got out of the car. As he walked forward, he complained angrily , " Damn, isn't this a traffic jam in the city?!"

Private cars lined up dozens of meters apart. After Li Ming walked a distance, the situation in the distance immediately became clear. At this time, more than a dozen drivers or passengers had gathered around. What could be seen was A billboard support fell on the roadside in the middle of the road, blocking the road. It also pressed against the front part of a black private car, but did not hit the body at all.

This billboard stand is a circular hollow iron frame, about the same thickness as a person's waist. There is no billboard placed on the top, just like an iron rod. At this time, more than a dozen people are gathering at the top of the iron frame, intending to join forces. Push the iron frame away.

Although the overall iron frame was relatively heavy, the combined efforts of everyone were still able to push it off the black car. However, everyone still pushed the iron frame hard, as if they wanted to move it off the road to allow vehicles to pass.

Seeing this, Li Ming quickened his pace and was ready to step forward to help. At the same time, vehicles and people were getting on and off one after another. There were more people and more strength. With the efforts of everyone, the iron frame was pushed to the side of the road bit by bit. As Li Ming After Ming joined, four or five people came later.

With the strength of nearly twenty people, the iron frame has been slowly pushed halfway, and now the other half of the road is passable.

"Okay, that's it. Leave the rest to the traffic police. I'm still rushing to get to work." One of the men in black suddenly said.

Li Ming also felt that it was almost done. Half of the road should be barely passable first. Besides, the roots of the iron frame have not been completely disconnected. It is not that easy to completely push it off the road. It is impossible without heavy equipment.

At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket rang again. Li Ming took it out and said the caller's note: Manager, looking at the time, 08:31.

Li Ming answered the phone, and a woman's voice immediately came , " You don't need to come, the finance department will settle the remaining salary for you."

After the other party finished speaking, he hung up directly.

"MD, I ... " Li Ming looked at the phone angrily. The other party had already hung up, without giving him a chance to speak.

Looking at the iron frame in front of him again, Li Ming became angry, and then kicked the iron frame angrily.

'bang'

'Whoosh'

The ten-meter-long iron frame flew directly out, spun around and landed in the woods in the green belt next to the road.

Li Ming was stunned. He obviously didn't use any force. How could he just kick the iron frame and the iron frame that could only be moved by twenty people flew out? The drivers who had not gone far stopped one after another, and their eyes stopped for a moment. On Li Ming's body.

Li Ming opened his mouth wide, turned around slightly, glanced at the strange eyes of those people, then lowered his head and walked quickly to his car, but the eyes and expressions of these people were completely unbelievable.

He quickly returned to the car, closed the door, and closed all the windows. Li Ming checked his right foot. There was no change, not even a trace of pain. It was as if he had been kicked on a wooden stick, but why? Will it be so powerful? Li Ming himself felt incredible, and even murmured in his mind , " What's going on? Super power?"

The vehicle in front drove slowly, and the road was completely opened. Except for the black car that was hit, the other vehicles began to drive away in an orderly manner. Li Ming restarted the vehicle and followed the vehicle in front to drive slowly. After entering the iron After getting into position, Li Mingbu Wang turned his head and glanced, his expression suddenly changed.

The iron frame was not only kicked away, but the part hit by the kick was dented, and the entire iron frame was bent. Seeing this, Li Ming stepped on the accelerator hard and left quickly.

As the vehicle entered the city, Li Ming picked up his cell phone again. It was out of battery and turned off. The speed of the vehicle suddenly slowed down. Going to the company? I've been fired, and there's probably no point in explaining it to the manager. go home? Sitting at home? The car loan still requires monthly payments.

Beep beep beep ...

"​ Are you sick? "

Li Ming breathed a long sigh of relief, stepped on the accelerator and rushed out. He shuttled back and forth through the streets of the city. After a few turns, he arrived at the door of the community where he lived. Although he didn't know where he was going, he walked back home. .

This is the place where Li Ming rents. There are many parking spaces at the entrance of the community. After parking the car, Li Ming was in a daze in the car. At this time, he saw in the rearview mirror the entrance of a large shopping mall across the street. There was a group of people gathered there, as if there was some lively activity going on in the shopping mall.

Li Ming opened the door and looked over there. A host was talking on the high platform in the square in front of the shopping mall. As soon as his voice stopped, dynamic music sounded, and as soon as the music stopped, he started talking again. What.

Li Ming closed the car door and walked over, and the host's voice rang clearly in his ears.

"[Super Delicious] Dessert Chain, the second Big Eater Competition is about to begin. Today our Super Delicious Dessert T City Head Office is here to sincerely provide benefits to everyone!!! As the saying goes, there is no free lunch in the world. , but today’s free lunch is in front of you! ! Do you still remember the heated scene of the first Big Eater Competition?

Yes, you heard it right, the super delicious dessert shop is so awesome, it’s not your first time! It’s your fault, you will regret it if you miss this time!”

"Today, in addition to the three players we have selected through layers of selection, we also invited the previous champion to see whether the new player is better or the old champion can defend the title. In addition, we will select two players on site. Are there any Want to sign up?”

Li Ming has already appeared among these enthusiastic audiences, and the crowded crowd is watching the situation on the stage carefully, looking forward to the performance beginning.

The host on the stage walked back and forth, carefully looking at the crowd below, and continued , " No? Really? If any of our friends here can win, we will have an additional reward, which is 20,000 yuan in cash!"

"Is there anyone in the audience?! Don't you dare to challenge yourself?!"

The host continued to shout, and as soon as the voice stopped, the dynamic music sounded again. Although there were many people watching, after what he said, no one took the initiative to sign up.

At this time, several girls in uniform had already set up the competition table on the podium, while several other boys came up to the stage carrying large plates of snacks. There were three large plates on each table, and the plates were one foot long and wide, piled high with pointed ends.

If you eat too much desserts, you will inevitably get tired of them, but for those who love desserts, they can naturally eat more.

At this time, the host suddenly waved his hand and said , " Okay, our competition dessert has been presented, which is our signature snack, delicious cookie. Then let's invite our last champion, Mr. Zhang, And three other players come on.”

A chubby man in his twenties with short hair came up, followed by two men and one woman. The four of them took the stage and stood in front of the table.

The host first came to the slightly fat man and said , " As the last champion, do you have the confidence to defend your title?"

"have!"

"Do you have anything to say to the other players?"

"If you can't finish it, keep it for me."

"Okay! The big words have been released, and the other three contestants should also work hard. Now we need to find two contestants from the audience. If no one signs up, then I will start to select."

As the host spoke, he began to look at the crowd, and soon a fat man came into view , " This is you, big brother. Come on, big brother, you can be in the top three with your body type."

The fat man in the audience immediately shook his head and waved his hands, and was also saying something, but no one in the noisy scene could hear clearly what he was saying.

"This eldest brother is a bit shy. We won't force him. Let's talk about this gentleman. Oh my god, sir, is this all your saliva? Or you just took a shower at home without taking off your clothes."

The host said and looked at Li Ming who was nearby.

Since the desserts were brought out, Li Ming's eyes have never left those snacks, but Li Ming has no hobby of eating sweets, but he just feels hungry when he sees these snacks.

The saliva at the corner of his mouth was like a faucet that was not turned off, dripping and dripping. At this moment, not only was his shirt completely soaked, but there was even a puddle of water under his feet. If Li Ming hadn't been wearing formal clothes, he would have been soaked. Treated as a psychopath.

When the host said this, Li Ming realized that he was actually drooling so much. This made Li Ming himself unable to believe that he didn't like sweets, but why he made such a fool of himself today that his drool almost turned into a river.

"Hahaha ...... "

"Ha ha ... "

The onlookers couldn't help bursting into laughter when they saw Li Ming's appearance. The first impression of anyone who saw this scene might be: He couldn't be a fool.

In this embarrassing situation, Li Ming couldn't wait to find a way to slip in. It was embarrassing, so he had better retreat quickly.

The host grabbed Li Ming and forced him to the stage, and then said , " You can see that our desserts are so tempting. It doesn't matter, sir. This is normal. I often see good desserts." My mouth will water when I eat it, but it’s not as much as yours.”

If Li Ming wanted to leave, he could definitely leave, but as soon as he saw this food, Li Ming's body reacted violently, as if his brain had only one command, eat! I want to eat!

The host pulled Li Ming down to one of the tables. At this time, five contestants, including Li Ming, were already standing on the stage. The host continued to look at the audience and said , " There is still one less, there is still one less." , Okay, just this beauty, it’s okay, beauty, you can eat whatever you want, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get the ranking, the main thing is that you can eat for free.”

With that said, a woman in her thirties was invited to the stage.

The host placed the woman at the last table and said , " All the contestants are already in place. The second session ... Hey, sir, wait, wait, we haven't started yet. There's no point in eating now." "

While the host was talking, Li Ming had already eaten half of the first plate. He stopped when the host stopped him.

"Okay, without further ado, let's serve milk tea and juice. The second super delicious Big Eater Challenge begins now ... "

As the host finished speaking, all the contestants began to eat, and with the music, the group leaders who were watching became excited.
