Lu Wenzhou thought that eating noodles on his birthday would be appropriate, so he agreed.
Although it was past midnight and not his birthday, it was a good experience for him to sit face to face with Zhou Tao and eat a bowl of plain instant noodles.
Zhou Tao checked the time: "Five minutes, it's time to eat."
Zhou Tao took off the book covering the instant noodles and started eating them.
Lu Wenzhou is extremely picky about food. His family has Michelin chefs cooking for them. This is the first time he has eaten instant noodles in his life, and it tastes quite good.
He washed a plate of cherries and placed it in the middle of the dining table. Zhou Tao picked up one and put it in her mouth.
The cherry was deep red, which matched her lips perfectly. Lu Wenzhou was a little stunned.
"When will your movie Mingli Middle School be released?"
He forced himself to divert his attention and talk about her work.
Zhou Tao spat out a core and said, "It will be released on Christmas Eve soon."
“Are there other competitive movies in the same period?”
"Well, a movie starring the popular young actress Zheng Yunyun was also released that day."
Zheng Yunyun was born from a talent show and debuted as the center position with a huge gap. If Zhou Tao is a reserve female top star, then Zheng Yunyun is the well-deserved female top star.
Moreover, their movie was a powerful combination, shot together with some of the most popular male stars in the circle.
By then, it is estimated that their movie will have the highest screening schedule.
Lu Wenzhou nodded: "Yes, I understand."
After finishing the instant noodles, Zhou Tao took the bucket to the kitchen and threw it into the trash can. Suddenly, she thought of a night two years ago.
She cooked a lot of dishes, waited for a long time, and finally had to put the dishes into the refrigerator one by one.
She stretched out her hand to support the glass platform, and finally remembered that today was Lu Wenzhou's birthday. Oh no, it should be yesterday, after all, it was already past twelve o'clock.
That's why he wanted to have dinner with her.
Through the transparent sliding door of the kitchen, Lu Wenzhou was gently wiping the table with a tissue.
He was handsome and dignified, and even when he was doing housework, he always revealed a noble temperament. Zhou Tao sat leaning against the glass table and watched him.
He wiped the table carefully and then went into the kitchen carrying a plate of uneaten cherries.
It was raining outside, beating against the glass windows, making the room quiet.
"It's getting late, you should go back."
After hesitating for a long time, she still didn't say "Happy Birthday". Zhou Tao didn't know who she was competing with. Maybe she was competing with herself for the past few years of struggling.
Lu Wenzhou hesitated to speak, but couldn't help but said, "Yesterday was my birthday."
Zhou Tao pretended to be surprised: "Really?"
"Um."
Zhou Tao forced a smile: "Then why don't you go back to Kyoto? Don't you have to go back to your grandfather's house every year on your birthday to eat a bowl of longevity noodles?"
"I was planning to go back after daybreak. The old man knew I was busy, so he said it was up to me whether to go back or not, and he didn't care about the formalities."
Zhou Tao lowered her eyes and said, "After all, you are his most valued grandson. Lu Xu is on the set filming all day, you should go back and spend more time with him."
Lu Wenzhou laughed softly: "He doesn't really want to see me go back."
As for the reason, she should know it. After all, she angered his favorite granddaughter-in-law and ran away. Now, every time she sees the old man, he doesn't look at her well.
Zhou Tao didn't respond to his words. She straightened up again and said, "It's really late. Let's go back."
Zhou Tao walked him to the door and slowly closed it, but a big hand suddenly grabbed the door, and the door was gently pushed open. He looked a little humble, "Say happy birthday to me, okay?"
