Chapter 9: casual words

"Secret love is when you hear someone say a word of liking casually, and secretly engrave the object you like in your heart, even ignoring whether the other party is just a little bit interested."

It turned out to be a blind date, Huo Sheng smiled calmly.

"Huh? I didn't misunderstand," Huo Sheng explained with a smile, "and there's nothing to be embarrassed about, isn't it normal?"

Cheng Yan looked at the other party's eyes, stunned for a moment, then shook his head slightly, and laughed at himself.

Why doesn't he know that these are normal, but it is still very troublesome when he comes. It's like he knows what people around him think when they look at him, but thinks that he is a boring person, can't speak, and has no hobbies. Even if they really date, it's only a matter of time before breaking up.

But what can be done? he thinks.

The thought of being everywhere and popping up at any time made him sigh deeply. He curled the corners of his mouth, still smiled slightly, and said, "It's okay, I just... don't want to delay the other party."

"Well," Huo Sheng smiled and nodded, and said, "I can understand it."

Well, how about you? Cheng Yan asked in his heart. But looking at the other party's appearance, he couldn't say anything. He could only hold back his mind a little and tore open the biscuits issued by the administrative staff.

But what he looked like was very obvious in Huo Sheng's eyes, but Huo Sheng was someone who had come over after all. He looked at his glance to the side, but he didn't speak again.

The three-hour journey is somewhat boring.

Because Huo Sheng got up early, he felt a little sleepy after a while, and the person next to him was awake, but he didn't speak, so he slightly put down the back of his chair and closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Seeing that the person was lying down, Cheng Yan secretly got the courage to look sideways for a while, but there were always a lot of people awake and chatting, so he didn't dare to keep staring, but took his mobile phone and flipped through it casually. it looks.

The unread messages above have all disappeared, and since he replied, no new messages have been sent from the other side.

After leaving the city, time seemed to speed up, and it didn't seem long before the bus stopped at the entrance of the hotel halfway up the mountain.

When the car stopped, half of the people in the car made a noise. Huo Sheng had already slept lightly, but when he woke up, many people had already left.

He was blindfolded, as if he was still not fully awake, until he saw Cheng Yan sitting sideways on the seat with his bag in his arms, and then he quickly stood up and said, "Sorry, you can get off first," and then Raise your hand to pick up the luggage on it.

Speaking of a hotel, it is better to say that it is a three-story homestay. When the crowd entered, the administrator went to the front desk to register and change the room card.

Miao Yu didn't seem to have slept well, and when she walked to Cheng Yan, she was still stretching and muttering, "You don't have to climb the mountain today."

Liang Chen followed Huo Sheng over from behind her. He happened to hear this, so he answered, "In the morning tomorrow, you don't have to climb today."

Miao Yu thought that only Liang Chen was alone, and was about to turn her head to say hello, but she didn't want to see Huo Sheng standing next to her as soon as she tilted her head, so she quickly retracted her hand and smiled a few times to show embarrassment , and then took a step back while there were many people and whispered to Cheng Yan, "Why didn't you remind me when someone came."

Cheng Yan then looked at the other party a little honestly, and said hesitantly, "Ah? I'm sorry."

"Hey, I don't want you to apologize." Miao Yu explained impatiently, "I just feel like I don't want to lose my image in front of the leaders."

Cheng Yan then glanced at Huo Sheng's expression and said, "No, probably not."

"I know," Miao Yu said, "but... just... Hey, I can't tell you."

Cheng Yan's mouth opened, not knowing how to answer.

However, Liang Chen turned his head to the side after listening to the movement next to him, then turned around and said, "Speaking of which there is a BBQ tonight."

As soon as the voice fell, the other three standing here had not spoken when they heard a child's voice from the phone of Huo Sheng, who was answering the phone just after entering the door: "Dad! Barbie!"

This voice made Cheng Yan and the others look over, and then saw Huo Sheng smiling, raised his hand to signal to go out, and then walked out.

After the people left, Liang Chen was left, Miao Yu, who couldn't see the situation clearly, and Cheng Yan, whose eyes had been fixed on Huo Sheng.

Liang Chen explained with a smile: "It's probably his daughter."

Miao Yucai asked, "How old is the minister's daughter?"

"I remember being four years old," Liang Chen said, "but he looks cute."

Cheng Yan heard this, thought for a while, and then looked back.

The administrative speed is very fast, and after a while, I took a lot of room cards and began to issue them. There are two-person and three-person rooms.

When they arrived in front of them, Cheng Yan still had a little bit of expectation, would he be assigned a room card for a two-person room, but unexpectedly, the administrator started to apologize as soon as he came over, saying, "I'm sorry, the last two-person room will be given to me. I stole it, and it happens that we have a boy in the administration, so is it convenient to insert it into your room?"

Seeing the other party's expression of apology, Cheng Yan nodded and took it over without much embarrassment.

The other party quickly thanked and said, "Thank you, Mr. Huo will help explain, and then I will let Xiao Chen go directly to the room to find you in a while."

After the room was allocated, the people in the hall quickly dispersed. Before Huo Sheng came back, Cheng Yan waited honestly in the hall with his room card and his bag on his back.

Without the crowd around him, Cheng Yan seemed to fit into the silence naturally. He was not very curious about the outside world. He didn't even look for some magazines to pass the waiting time.

He looked at himself reflected in the mirror in the hall, and seemed a little annoyed. The gray short-sleeved and trousers sneakers looked a little dirty.

But when he saw the person walking behind him in the mirror, he turned around quickly, as if nothing had happened.

He heard the other person ask him, "Why are you waiting here?"

Then he looked up again and explained, "Just now the administration said that there are no double rooms, so I took the triple room card. I... I'm afraid you don't know the room number, so I'll wait here."

Cheng Yan's voice sounded gentle, and he spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Huo Sheng was not in a hurry, but said to him, "Just now the administration called and explained it to me." Then he called him again and said, "Go, let's go up."

And Cheng Yan looked at him with a smile all the way, and unconsciously bowed his head and bent the corners of his mouth.

The two went to the room to put things, and went downstairs to gather to the cafeteria.

During the meal, the administrator announced the itinerary. Only then did Cheng Yan know that the afternoon was all indoor activities, and he would only start going up the mountain tomorrow morning.

To talk about such indoor activities, Cheng Yan was very distressed. Although a team building must focus on entertainment and not be too serious, he is not very able to talk to unfamiliar people.

Fortunately, as soon as he entered the activity room after eating, the host informed him that the activity was based on a newly established department, which made Cheng Yan relieved.

In the afternoon, there were three hours of indoor activities. There were three games arranged by the administration, and the content was relatively simple.

Because Fatty and the other two couldn't come because of family matters, Cheng Yan and his group consisted of only four of them.

Huo Sheng and Liang Chen were both highly efficient people, Cheng Yan was careful, and Miao Yu responded quickly. After three games before and after, their group took a high or low ranking and hung in the middle, and finally they were assigned to be responsible for the preparations for the evening BBQ.

It sounds like preparation work, but there is absolutely no need to go shopping. After all, this is halfway up the mountain, and it takes nearly an hour to drive to the township below. The administration side explained that the hotel helped to purchase a lot of ingredients, and let Cheng Yan and the others slowly string together there.

Miao Yu and Liang Chen were both typical family pets, and they never took a kitchen knife twice. After discussing, Cheng Yan was more experienced, so he took the initiative to pick up the kitchen knife and cut the ingredients into small pieces.

Although it was the next day to climb the mountain, the administrative team arranged drinks for dinner.

When Miao Yu turned out with two plates of food to eat, she saw Cheng Yan standing at the table with only a beer in his hand and nothing.

"Cheng Yan, don't you want to eat?" She was a little puzzled.

Hearing her question, Cheng Yan just took a sip quietly and said, "There are a lot of people, I'll take it later."

"Then you can't stop eating? That's all for tonight. There's no takeaway if you're hungry at night." Miao Yu said while staring at him.

It happened that Liang Chen came over with two trays of things, then handed a tray to Cheng Yan, and said clearly, "You're welcome."

Cheng Yan just looked at the person, didn't speak, just took it with a little embarrassment, and then saw Huo Sheng, who came over with Liang Chen, and simply ate in silence.

It's just that when Rao was chatting, he didn't say a word, but his brain didn't stop, and his heart couldn't stop rejoicing.

Because he heard Huo Sheng say with a smile: "The barbecue this time is really good, I like it very much."
