He Xiaochen silently put down the phone.
Ren Qian who was sitting opposite looked up at her:
"What's wrong?"
He Xiaochen waved his hand:
"It's nothing, I just suddenly feel like I'm a little full."
Good guy, I didn't even give her any time to prepare, and just served a bowl of dog food!
Who can stand this
"real?"
Ren Qian didn't seem to believe her words, so he handed over a small porcelain bowl.
He Xiaochen lowered his head and glanced, inside was the fish that Ren Qian had already picked out.
She froze for a moment, coughed lightly, and said very reservedly:
"How embarrassing."
Ren Qian raised his chin:
"Try it, I came here with my classmates once before, and everyone said it was okay."
He Xiaochen: "Oh?"
She regained her energy in an instant, and didn't care about being reserved anymore, she took a piece with chopsticks and put it in her mouth.
Three seconds later.
He Xiaochen held the small porcelain bowl:
"I can do it again!"
Ren Qian looked at her with a smile: "Didn't you say you were full just now?"
He Xiaochen had no time to refute the words, the sweet and sour taste was appetizing, and she quickly began to sweep the dishes on the table.
She has never been to this restaurant before, but she did not expect the taste to be really good!
"This is delicious!"
"This one is delicious too!"
"Ah! Can I have another order of this?"
Ren Qian nodded while helping her pick out the fishbone.
"Can."
After sending those two items, Lu Huaihe returned the phone to Shen Li.
Seeing that He Xiaochen on the opposite side didn't return, Shen Li probably could guess her reaction at this time, so she couldn't help laughing.
Lu Huaiyu gently pinched her face:
"Are you hungry, go eat?"
Shen Li held his hand:
"good."
This time the two went to a restaurant that had just opened, only one street away from Xijing University.
Because the decoration is very stylish and the taste is good, it is very popular.
Except that the price is a bit expensive, there is nothing wrong with it.
Not far away, the two went for a walk together.
When I arrived at the store, it was already half past six, the sky was dark, the lights on both sides of the road were bright, people were coming and going, and it was quite lively.
The two entered the store, because they had already reserved a place before coming, and the waiter led them directly to a small private room inside.
Shen Li took the menu and ordered a few items, then handed it to Lu Huai and:
"Second brother, what else do you want to add?"
Lu Huaiyu leaned on the back of the chair and said with a lazy smile:
"I like everything Ali ordered, so let's just go with these."
Are you still joking about what happened just now
As if seeing through Shen Li's thoughts, Lu Huai raised his eyebrows:
"Well, it doesn't seem accurate to say that. To be precise, I like what Ali ordered."
This is also true.
Shen Li picked up the teacup, the turquoise tea was still hot with white mist curling up.
She took a sip of her tea, her eyes slightly bent:
"Second brother, we have been together for eight months."
After such a long time, it would be strange if she didn't know what he likes to eat.
Lu Huaiyu looked at her, suddenly remembered something, and didn't answer right away.
— She does know his tastes very well.
Not from when they were together, but earlier.
The first time they ate together, she seemed to know exactly what he liked and what he didn't like.
Even if he never said it.
At first he thought it was just a coincidence, but in retrospect, he felt...it seemed a bit subtle.
Those are small details, so it's not noticeable as it happens.
"Ali."
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyes, his eyes fell on her face, with a smile on his lips,
"I never asked, you are, since when did you like me?"
Shen Li was still holding the cup.
The white mist floated, covering her eyebrows and eyes, making it difficult to see clearly.
The private room fell into silence.
Shen Li blinked lightly:
"Why did the second brother suddenly ask this question?"
Lu Huai leaned lazily on the back of the chair, his tone was as loose as ever.
"I just remembered it all of a sudden."
As he spoke, his brows and eyes seemed to be stained with a little smile, and he said in a low voice:
"Didn't Ali say that she liked me for a long time?"
So, how long is it
Shen Li met his eyes with a calm expression, but her fingers tightened unconsciously, and her heart beat faster.
He had never asked that question carefully before, and neither had she.
But now that he asked, she certainly had no reason not to answer.
yes.
She has liked him for a long time.
But how to answer this question
For some reason, Shen Li inexplicably felt the surrounding space tense up.
After a while, she slowly put down the teacup and said:
"perhaps."
Lu Huaiyu looked at her with a smile, and said "um" very lightly, motioning for her to continue talking.
Shen Li's throat tightened:
".should be."
Before the words were finished, the overhead lights suddenly went out, and the entire private room was instantly plunged into darkness!
Shen Li's eyes went dark, and she couldn't see everything.
Her heart instantly seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand.
Lu Huai frowned slightly:
"power cut?"
As soon as the voice fell, there was a commotion outside.
There were footsteps, and the sound of someone talking, and the power went out while talking.
Lu Huai said:
"I'll go outside and have a look."
With that said, he got up and was about to go out.
In the darkness, he heard Shen Li's voice:
"Lu Huai and."
He froze.
Because Shen Li's voice sounded different from usual.
It seemed extremely tense and hurried.
Lu Huaiyu could already see the outline of the scene inside the house.
He went around the table and came to Shen Li's side.
"Ali."
He pulled her with one hand and took out his cell phone with the other.
The next moment, he held her hand.
Her hands were extraordinarily cold, but the palms were wet—it was full of sweat.
For some reason, Lu Huaiyu suddenly remembered the night when he brought her back to Yunding Fenghua for the first time, the power went out, and she also went up to the second floor, grabbed his hand in the dark, and asked, can I be with him? He sleeps in one.
Lu Huaiyu held her hand tightly and turned on the flashlight of the phone at the same time.
The light tore through the darkness, almost dazzling.
Lu Huaiyu could clearly see the appearance of the little girl in front of him.
Her face was expressionless, but her lips were pale, and her pupils were extremely dark, as if covered with a layer of mist.
"Lu Huai and."
She looked over and called out again.
Lu Huaihe's heart seemed to be stabbed by something.
—she is afraid.
I'm so sleepy after the vaccination, good night everyone
