She just sent a message asking him to call her at the designated time and drive to pick her up, but she didn't say what she was going to do next.
Han Qiqing said, "I'm in a good mood and I'd like to treat you to dinner!"
Song Shijun had no objection.
When the two of them were discussing where to go for dinner, Song Shijun's cell phone rang.
He glanced at it, as if he didn't want to take it.
Han Qiqing poked her head over curiously, wanting to see who was calling.
Just when the light was red, the car stopped. Song Shijun covered the screen with his palm, picked up the phone, and simply answered the call.
"Hey, I was about to go to dinner. I won't go. You can eat by yourselves. She's not here. I need you to take care of her. I was driving and I hung up."
The conversation went quickly, and before the light turned green, the phone was hung up and his hands were on the steering wheel again.
Han Qiqing held her chin in her palms, glanced sideways at him, and asked, "Who is it?"
Song Shijun said, "Just the people in my compound, ignore them."
Han Qiqing probably knew what was going on, so she smiled and said, "Did they ask you to go to dinner?"
He responded, "Yeah."
Han Qiqing said, "Where are they now? Let's go."
Song Shijun frowned imperceptibly and said to her, "I'm not going. There are a lot of them here and they are noisy. Let's go eat by ourselves and ignore them."
Han Qiqing smiled and said, "What does it matter? It's just a meal anyway. The more people there are, the more lively it will be. They invited me to a barbecue before. This time I'll treat them to a meal. Where are they now? Let's go there. If we haven't yet Choose a place, I’ll choose a place and ask them to come over.”
She thought that group of people was quite interesting and fun.
More importantly, they were his friends.
Of course his friends are also her friends.
However, Song Shijun didn't seem happy and continued, "There's no need to invite them, they can eat by themselves."
Hearing this, Han Qiqing couldn't laugh or cry. "Shijun, you are so weird today..."
Song Shijun glanced at her sideways, "What's wrong with me? You're the one who's weird, why do you want to invite them to dinner?"
"What does this have to do with it? They are your friends. Besides, the last time you took me to have barbecue with them, wasn't it just to let me get to know them? I'm inviting them this time, so we can keep going. Isn't it great?" Han Qiqing asked in confusion.
It is also polite to come and go.
Song Shijun, “…”
He, who was so eloquent, suddenly didn't know how to explain it to her.
Finally, he complied with her wishes, and the two of them went to find his group of friends and have dinner together.
After asking for the address, Song Shijun drove over.
Through the phone, Han Qiqing could hear the other party's cheers.
She couldn't help but feel amused, "Are they so happy?"
Song Shijun glanced sideways at her but said nothing.
After driving for almost half an hour, we finally arrived at the hotel.
The environment here is quiet and the buildings have the classic style of City A, which makes people feel full of nostalgia.
Han Qiqing likes it here very much and looks around in novel ways.
"It's nice here. How did your friend find such a good place?"
Song Shijun said, "They eat everywhere. There is probably no restaurant in City A that they haven't eaten at."
After all, these are officials, and there are too many people asking for help or building relationships, so they are invited to dinner every day.
We are tired of ordinary restaurants, so from time to time people look for some special restaurants.
The two of them passed by an elegant alley before actually arriving at the entrance of the store.
