"What a mess." Adrian said, "Pillow and quilt and bedding."
Fein asked: "What kind of pillow and quilt should I buy? Why, you two are going to sleep in separate beds?"
Adrian deeply felt that this day's chat could not go on, he squeezed out the words: "We have always slept in separate beds."
"Oh yes, you have a spare set at home, and I have slept in it." Finn asked even more puzzled, "Then why buy a new one?"
Isn't it because that damned little brat won't come into the nest? Adrian looked at Zhong Yan, which meant: You mentioned buying the quilt, you go.
Zhong Yan went up. He quickly cut through the mess and said, "One set is dirty."
Fein asked, "Wouldn't it take two hours to put it in the washer-dryer?"
"... It's broken. Just throw it away." Zhong Yan reluctantly continued.
Fein asked in shock, "What did you do to make the quilt not only dirty but torn?"
Zhong Yan looked at Adrian, as if he was asking for his opinion, asking if he could speak, but actually it meant: I can’t make it up anymore, you come.
Adrian's eyes were full of words: See what stupid reason you made up.
Fein himself hesitated in disbelief: "Could it be that you... had a fight?"
"Adjutant West, don't ask about the quilt." Wei Lan stopped him.
Both Adrian and Zhong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and then Wei Lan continued: "The quilt must be dirty for reasons that are inconvenient to say, and the commander didn't say anything, so don't ask."
"Pfft." Finn couldn't help laughing.
Adrian held his forehead, and Zhong Yan turned his head to observe Adrian's car logo, pretending that he was no longer involved in this difficult conversation.
"What's the matter?" Seeing the reaction of the two, Wei Lan said with a hint of confusion in her tone, "After the commander made an opinion last time, I reflected on it myself and found it reasonable, so recently I have been practicing observing words and expressions... What I said Is there anything wrong?"
Fein immediately restrained his expression, and said seriously: "You are so right, Doctor Wei! It's because I'm too bad at observing words and expressions, so I won't ask. Have you started practicing recently? I think you've made great progress!"
Adrian said to Wei Lan: "No, I don't think you..."
Before he finished speaking, Fein wrapped his arms around his neck, took him aside, and said in a low voice, "Brother, what's the matter with you? Can you be nice to Dr. Wei? "
"I'm not friendly enough to him?" Adrian couldn't bear it anymore, "What the hell is he talking about?"
"Then why do you say you bought a quilt?"
Adrian: "…"
"You see, if you don't say it, isn't that the reason why it's inconvenient to say it? What did they say wrong?"
At this moment, Adrian had an urge to tell Fern that there was a rabbit in his backyard. Although this guy would definitely laugh at him, if he was laughed at, he would be laughed at.
"Besides, it's not because of your random comments last time that he talked like this. Look at the good things you caused yourself." Finn persuaded, "And he was kind enough to help you out. If he didn't speak just now, I would I’m planning to play for a while, it’s so interesting.”
"Playing with you, uncle." Adrian said, "I can't stand him after eating and going his own way."
The gap between people is too great, Adrian thought, not even one percent of Zhong Yan's understanding, only Finn can bear it.
"Okay, okay, don't bother you to buy bedding, okay? Be friendly, ah."
Finn walked back with him shoulder to shoulder as he spoke, and said enthusiastically to Wei Lan: "The commander said, I don't think your hard work is fruitless, and it's fine now!"
Adrian couldn't bear to listen and turned his head to look aside, only to find that Zhong Yan was looking straight at him. With outsiders around, his expression was as calm as water, but Adrian could see that those beautiful phoenix eyes were full of resentment.
What's wrong? Adrian was puzzled for a second, then realized that Finn's arm was still hooked around his neck.
Zhong Yan once accused him of "liking Finn".
With a chill, Adrian picked up Finn's arm and shook it away.
"What are you doing?" Fein asked inexplicably while talking with Wei Lan.
"From now on, just talk when you talk, don't talk about it, so many people are watching, how decent it is."
"Why are there so many people watching?" Finn asked.
Zhong Yan passed the ladder to Adrian calmly: "What is there to eat on the main star of Na'vi? I saw a steak restaurant with high reviews in the virtual community. Can I go to that restaurant?"
"Okay, get in the car." With years of tacit understanding, Adrian went down the ladder without hesitation. He opened the door of the driver's seat, and said to Fein earnestly, "I've had a day off and I'm going to start working tomorrow. Take it easy, don't keep asking questions."
"What? Why don't I accept..."
Before he could finish speaking, Adrian had already entered the car, and finally said "I'll send you the address" and closed the car door.
"Did you really see a good steakhouse?" Adrian asked.
"Well, I saw someone said that his black pepper juice is very delicious and homemade." Zhong Yan turned on the virtual screen and showed him the address, "Have you been to this place?"
"No. Let's go, try it." Adrian sent Finn the address.
Zhong Yan thought of what Adrian said not long ago that his taste had changed, and hesitantly asked, "Why haven't you been there? Don't you like black pepper steak anymore? How about we change... "
Adrian activated the operation screen, "You think too much, this is a new store, I've been too busy recently, I just haven't had time to go."
The four met outside the restaurant, and half the Steak House stood up as they walked through the door together.
"Hello Commander" and "Hello Adjutant" rang out one after another in the restaurant.
Adrian nodded to them, stretched out his hand and pressed slightly to signal them to sit down: "Happy New Year everyone, you eat yours."
Although he said this, it was obviously difficult for anyone not to pay attention to them. Adjutants and medical officers often eat together, commanders and adjutants often eat together, but it is not common for commanders to appear together with the unspeakable person.
The business in the store was good, they came just in time, the table for four in the corner had finished eating, and there was a seat available.
Zhong Yan walked into the innermost seat and sat down, Adrian sat next to him, and Finn and Wei Lan sat opposite them. The ordering virtual screen appeared on the desktop in front of everyone. Adrian closed his menu without even looking at it, and connected his personal terminal virtual screen to the desktop. Generally restaurants will place such a setting, and customers can conveniently watch terminal information displayed on the desktop while eating.
"Commander, don't you want to eat?" Wei Lan asked strangely.
Finn rolled his eyes, and answered first: "No, he eats. Someone will order for him."
Adrian was reading the news. Hearing this, he raised his head and was about to speak when he heard the person sitting beside him whisper softly: "I have chosen. Is yours still five-five? Don't add noodles to the side dishes, I I will give you half of the steak, too much to fill you up."
Adrian said casually: "It's fine, just watch it."
"Doctor, take a look. I really can't stand it. They used to eat like this every time they were in school." Fein complained to Wei Lan, "I never ate with them alone, and I never Said that the gossip forums in the school are spreading rumors every day."
Wei Lan is not naturally curious about these interpersonal relationships. For him, reading gossip is not as interesting as reading medical literature, but Finn is his rare friend. , and came to the conclusion that "Fin envied Adrian to order food for him". Because it was an area he was not familiar with, he carefully reasoned it out in his mind, and felt that there was nothing wrong with the conclusion, so he said, "Adjutant Cister, if you don't mind, I can also order food for you."
This time, not only Adrian, but even Zhong Yan, who was as immobile as a mountain, raised his head to look at them.
Fein seemed to have suddenly suffered from aphasia. Looking at Wei Lan's delicate face, he couldn't utter a single word. He murmured for a long time before saying, "I... don't need it, let me help you order, no, I mean..."
"I've already ordered it." Wei Lan observed his breathing in confusion, "Adjutant, you seem to be short of breath, what's wrong? Is there a hypoglycemia attack?"
Zhong Yan shook his head unobtrusively, then lowered his head to add another drink to Adrian on the menu screen.
Adrian sighed inwardly, and clicked on Fein's communication.
Fein received two text message prompts one after another. He quickly excused himself from reading the message to get rid of Wei Lan's consultation. He clicked on the message:
Adrian: Are you stupid
Adrian: It's too embarrassing, don't say that you got out of it because of me.
Finn: Buy your quilt and leave me alone.
Wei Lan was the fastest one to place an order among them. After a while, his meal was ready. A young girl came over with a plate, put the plate in front of Wei Lan, and told a few words according to the process, "Your order The hot drink is hot, please pay attention to the hot" and other warnings.
When she was leaving, she focused on Zhong Yan several times, and a strange smile completely different from the professional smile appeared on her face completely uncontrollably. The girl's gaze was so intense that both Adrian and Zhong Yan noticed it.
... I don't know why, but I always feel that this kind of smile and this kind of look are a little familiar. Zhong Yan thought.
Adrian thought much more simply. Some people stared at Zhong Yan because Zhong Yan was really good-looking. This was not uncommon when they were still in school. He raised his eyes and glanced at the restaurant—he and Zhong Yan sat in the innermost seat, facing the whole restaurant, and could easily have a panoramic view of the whole restaurant. Everyone in the restaurant was secretly looking at this table.
Fein and Wei Lan had their backs to the entire restaurant, and the only ones who could see their faces were him and Zhong Yan, and he was resident on the main star of the Na'vi sector, so it was not uncommon to see him here.
Adrian looked sideways at Zhong Yan. In order to create an atmosphere in the steak house, the overall lighting is very dark, but there is a beam of mild dim yellow light above each seat.
Zhong Yan was surrounded by his beam of light. Even though the light was warm yellow, his skin was extremely white. At this moment, he rested his chin on one hand, lowered his head quietly and looked down at the virtual screen on the desktop, his long eyelashes There was an ambiguous shadow under his eyes, obviously he was in a quiet and warm oil painting, but if he had to look closely at the faces of the people in the painting, he felt full of temptation.
Adrian stood up suddenly, and the other three people on the table were startled.
"You two," Adrian said to Fein and Wei Lan, who had their backs to the restaurant, "change seats with us."
