Not only the men's cold deterrence, but also the high-end environment in which Lin Yuhe was at a loss.
He had heard of this place before, the Guojin Ring Restaurant, the restaurant has a large area, but there are only six seats, each with its own independent area. The decoration styles of the six areas are very different, and the cuisines are also different. The only thing in common is that the ingredients are delicious and the taste is top-notch. Correspondingly, the prices are also staggering.
But even so, reservations here are full all year round. Although it is not a private restaurant, it is more difficult to make a reservation than a private restaurant.
Shen Huixi, who has the best family conditions in the dormitory, once mentioned that his family once waited in line for a full month to invite someone to eat here.
Lin Yuhe remembered that his stepmother said that Mr. Lu had just arrived in Yancheng these two days, and he didn't know when the restaurant was booked.
And after he actually walked into the restaurant, he realized that the place was not divided into six areas as Shen Huixi said, but was all opened up, and there was only one table for them on the entire floor of the restaurant.
The interior of the restaurant has been specially decorated. It is not the kind of arrogant and luxurious beauty without temperature, but rather elegant. The surrounding decoration is very simple, and there is even a small indoor waterfall. In the spacious space, there are clumps of lush green bamboos, and the warm wind blows gently, and the green bamboo leaves sway slightly, sending bursts of bamboo rhyme and fragrance.
Lin Yuhe grew up in the bamboo forest, and he recognized at a glance that those were real bamboos.
This familiar bamboo scene inadvertently soothed his tense nerves a little bit.
It's just that as Lin Yuhe got closer and closer to the dining table, this comfort lost its effect after all.
The coldness of being watched by men regained the upper hand.
In fact, Lu Nan's appearance is quite handsome, no matter where he is, he is an extremely dazzling existence. This appearance is actually not a plus for the wealthy or the financial circle. It is easy to be ignored by people, and it is too easy to cause trouble.
But he is too cold, one look can make people feel cold all over, so that he has such a heart-pounding face, but there are few scandals.
Lin Yuhe felt the same way when he first met him.
it's too cold.
For the first time, he felt this kind of severe cold and frost that could almost be touched on a person.
Lu Nan's temper is also very famous, everyone is known to be cold and hard, so he is not only cold, but also looks fierce. As they got closer, Lin Yuhe could see clearly, and his pace couldn't help but slow down a beat.
The more he thought about it, the more absurd he felt.
Pretending to be intimate with such a gentleman...
How to pretend this
Even Lin Yuhe, who has always been indifferent, couldn't help but feel a little tricky. But at this moment, there was no way out, he could only walk slowly to the table, and nodded to the person.
"Mr. Lu."
Lin Yuhe was ready for the other party's disdainful response, but unexpectedly heard a deep voice.
"sit."
The man's voice is very low, with a bit of a metallic texture, indifferent, but also unexpectedly magnetic.
Lin and He sat down according to the words, and when they raised their eyes, they were facing a pair of bottomless black pupils.
Lu Nan's hair color and eye color are all pure black, without any variegated color, they press down like black mist, making people hold their breath.
Lin Yuhe froze slightly, and then he realized that the man had been looking at him since he came in.
It's the kind of sight that looks good for a moment and is extremely focused.
Lin Yuhe couldn't help being puzzled.
Does he look weird
Just when he couldn't help doubting himself, Lu Nan finally spoke.
The man's voice was deep and magnetic: "The title needs to be changed."
call
Lin Yuhe froze for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Yes, they want to pretend to be a couple, so calling Mr. Lu is indeed a little strange.
Lin Yuhe realized that his name was wrong, but he didn't know how to change it, so he could only ask, "What do you think should be called?"
Lu Nan looked at him, his eyes were still dark, and there was nowhere to hide.
He tapped lightly on the solid wood table with his fingertips. The sound was not loud, but it made people's eardrums slightly numb.
"At least not 'you'."
Lin Yuhe was a little embarrassed.
The interview had just begun, and he made two mistakes in front of people.
Lu's embarrassment didn't embarrass him for too long: "Call by name, or other names, it's up to you."
Lin Yuhe was still a little uncertain. Calling his name directly is too disrespectful, he can't say it. If it's called "Brother Difficult"...it sounds like a gangster again.
And even though there was a ten-year age difference between the two, Lin Yuhe still felt that he couldn't call him uncle, and felt that calling someone old was plain.
He hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Brother?"
Lu Nan's expression remained unchanged, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and his eyes narrowed.
Inexplicably, Lin Yuhe felt that the way he looked at her was meaningful.
Lu Nan was noncommittal about this title, but instead asked, "Do you often call people that?"
Lin Yuhe found that the man's words were actually a bit more than he expected, and he was not as exaggeratedly cold and ruthless as the rumors said. He shook his head and said honestly: "No, usually they are called seniors or brothers."
Lu Nan didn't speak, not sure if he was satisfied with this answer.
Lin Yuhe hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Then you call it that way, you...do you think it's okay?"
Lu Nan finally nodded: "Yes."
Lin Yuhe breathed a sigh of relief, vaguely feeling that his first test was a joke.
No matter how hard he tried, he might see the offer waving at him.
Lin Yuhe took the initiative: "You can call me Yuhe, or Xiaohe."
He thought to himself, it would be fine to call him Xiao Lin, that sounded most reassuring to him.
Lu Nan didn't respond.
Lin Yuhe didn't find it strange either. After all, men are notoriously reticent, and he only thought that the other party heard it.
However, Lu Nan was silent for a while, but said, "Isn't it Ningning?"
Lin Yuhe's heart skipped a beat.
"Ning Ning" is his mother's nickname.
It wasn't Wu Xin, but his biological mother who had been dead for nearly ten years.
He was so surprised that he blurted out: "How does Mr. Lu know this name?"
It wasn't until Lu Nan took a look that he remembered to change his words.
"Brother... How did brother know?"
With time to change his mind, Lin Yuhe also came to his senses after asking,
The stepmother must have given all her information.
"Is it mentioned in the information? Ningning is also fine."
Lu Nan said nothing more. After discussing the address, he rang the bell to call the waiter up.
There is no menu in the circular restaurant, and the dishes are all ordered when the location is set. Because those expensive ingredients must be prepared in advance, there is no need to order at this time, and the dishes will be served directly.
Seeing the meals brought by the waiter, Lin Yuhe unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it is Chinese food.
Lin Yuhe is not used to eating Western food, especially in winter when the stomach is weak and the pressure of eating Western food is even greater.
There were not many dishes for this dinner, but they were delicious. What surprised Lin Yuhe the most was that what he ate for this meal was actually his hometown cuisine.
Shu dishes are delicious, but they are usually not good at formal banquets. Lin Yuhe was ready to eat greasy fish roe, foie gras, or clear soup with little water, but was served with the most familiar delicacies on the table, with a pair of beautiful eyes. His eyes lit up a little.
The dinner started, and the food was silent, and the two were relatively silent.
However, since Lin's father remarried, Lin Yuhe has long been used to keeping silent during meals at home, and he doesn't feel too depressed.
Lin Yuhe ate with eyes downcast, his movements were quiet and elegant. Good-looking people are also pleasing to the eye when eating, and people look at them, and they can't move their eyes unconsciously.
His skin is very white, like fine nephrite jade, always inviting people to touch it. Lin Yuhe himself had some symptoms of lack of pigmentation. Under the warm light, the color of the whole person became lighter, and even the forehead hair and eyelashes became golden.
Only the color of the lips was made redder, making the redness even more surprisingly bright.
When drinking water occasionally, the thin lips are stained with a little light, making them look soft.
Lu looked at him awkwardly for a while, until the other party put down the tableware, the man looked away and glanced at the meals on the table.
He asked, "You don't like sweets now?"
Most of the sweets on the table were left, and they were basically untouched.
Lin Yuhe didn't expect a man to pay attention to what he eats, he shook his head: "It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I eat less sweets."
Lu Nan didn't speak.
But Lin Yuhe always felt that he seemed to have something to say.
Especially the question just now, the more Lin Yuhe thought about it, the more strange it became... Why did you add "now"
Could it be that Mr. Lu knew that he used to like sweets
But the man didn't say anything after all, he just asked, "What time is the access control?"
Lin Yuhe: "Eleven o'clock."
It took a lot of time to wait for Mr. Lu before, but now it is past nine o'clock, and it will take nearly an hour to return to school from IFC. After all, there wasn't much time left.
Lu Nan continued to ask, "When are you free this week?"
In fact, Lin Yuhe was not free for a whole week. There were many classes for medical students, and he was already nervous about reviewing when the term was approaching.
But he definitely couldn't say that in front of Lu Nan, and the man was much busier than him.
He simply said: "I can do it."
Lu Nan let out a "hmm" and said, "Do you know about the engagement next month?"
Lin Yuhe nodded: "I know."
Lu Nan asked, "Is there any request?"
For this kind of marriage by agreement, Lin and He would naturally not ask for any style and form without knowing the taste, and they just felt that it was good to leave the full power to the other party.
The only thing he had to consider was whether to tell the other party his concerns about the time of the midterm exam, but thinking of his stepmother's reaction, Lin Yuhe finally chose not to say it.
He shook his head: "No, I'll just follow the arrangement."
Lu Nan looked at him again with that look that Lin Yuhe couldn't understand.
The simple question and answer ended here, and the two got up to leave. When the man stood up straight, Lin Yuhe realized that the man was so tall.
Lin Yuhe is 1.78 meters tall. Although he has always been worried about the two centimeters difference, he is not considered short. But when he and Lu Nan stood together, they were half a head shorter than the other party. Even with a conservative estimate, a man must be 1.9 meters tall.
Lin Yuhe was a little envious. He unconsciously took a second look, and found that not only their height, but also their body shapes were obviously different.
Seeing the man's smooth muscular lines that couldn't be concealed by a suit, Lin Yuhe, who had been eating hard but not gaining weight, became even more envious.
Afraid of being noticed by the other party, Lin Yuhe didn't dare to look too much, and controlled himself to look away.
The two walked across the delicate stone bridge together, and there was a gurgling stream under the bridge. Lin Yuhe's eyes fell on the ancient decoration in the room, and he couldn't help sighing.
"It's so beautiful here."
If it weren't for the bright and gorgeous night view outside the circular 360-degree floor-to-ceiling windows, standing here would almost make people mistakenly believe that they are in a real extraterrestrial garden.
Lin Yuhe likes the decoration style here very much, especially the bamboo scenery.
He has a natural affinity for bamboo.
When Lin Yuhe said this, he just sighed, and didn't expect the man to answer. But unexpectedly, he heard Lu Nan's voice.
"As long as you like it."
Lin Yuhe froze for a moment.
These words really don't sound like Mr. Lu's style.
Just as he was surprised, the waiter at the door had already greeted them, guiding the two of them respectfully.
Lin Yuhe was stunned.
Oh, yes, in front of outsiders, the drama must be full.
He thought for a while and replied.
"I like it very much, thank you brother."
When the word "brother" sounded, the man walking beside Lin Yuhe stopped suddenly, and even the light in his black eyes dimmed a bit.
His voice was slightly hoarse, and he asked in a low voice, "What did you say?"
It just so happened that he had just come up the stairs, and the notification sound was mixed with the voices. Lin Yuhe thought that the other party hadn't heard what he said clearly, so he repeated it carefully.
"Thank you brother."
Lu Nan's pupils shrank slightly.
He looked at Lin and He beside him. Because of the movement of looking sideways at the elevator, the young man exposed his slender, white neck unsuspectingly to him. The smooth lines extend all the way into the tight collar, and the rest is invisible, only a piece of bare, delicate skin around the neck is exposed, eye-catchingly white.
That piece of white that is visible and invisible, together with the elder brother whose voice lingered just after it fell, made Lu Nan, who was originally cold-hearted and calm, stay in the forest for a long time. With the crane body.
Can't let go.
Can't move.
