Chapter Twenty-Eight: Warmth

From a distance, she saw Su Yinxi standing at the door of the Western restaurant. She beckoned to him and hurried after him.

"Why don't you go in?" she asked, looking at his wind-blown hair and his face red from the tip of his nose.

"I'm afraid you won't find it, so I'll stand at the door and wait for you. He smiled and showed a row of neat, white teeth.

They walked in on their shoulders, her heart pounding uncontrollably. It's the first time I've been so close to him for so many years, and there's a faint smell of vanilla on his body.

"What do you want to eat?" he said, removing the beautifully bound menu from his face, his eyes shining.

"I ......," she realized that her full attention was on him, and she didn't read a word of it, even though she had the menu in her hand.

"Try the steak here, it's not bad. He closed the menu, his eyes shining, and a smile on his lips.

"Then I'll have a steak. She closed the menu and said to him with a smile. A few years have passed, and his crooked eyes have not changed at all when he laughs, and he has faded from the youthfulness of his youth, and he has become mature.

"We've known each other for a long time. I can't imagine that it is the first time to sit together to eat and talk like this. He unfolded the napkin and spread it on his lap, and then he suddenly looked at him with a look that remembered something, "I think you're prettier than ever." ”

Her face couldn't help but get hot. It was the first time he had praised her in front of him.

"I remember you have a sister. He threw out a sentence coldly. "You two sisters look alike. ”

"My sister ......" smiled on her lips and her eyes darkened. "My sister is missing. ”

"Missing?" he opened his mouth in shock, a smile frozen on his face. "How so?"

"I didn't know, my sister disappeared a few days before we got married, and we tried many ways to find her, but there was no whereabouts. A dull ache slowly crept out of her heart, and she bit her lip.

"Is that so strange? Did you notice anything wrong with your sister beforehand?" he asked, a little curious.

She shook her head slightly, tugged around her long hair and said, "No." Shortly after I returned home, my sister was happy, but one day she suddenly disappeared, as if she had evaporated from the world. ”

"Incredible. Su Yinxi's lips fluttered for a while and said, "Did you call the police?"

She nodded: "I did, but it didn't work." After she said this, the atmosphere between the two became silent. In the end, he broke the deadlock and took the lead in laughing: "Look at me, I really can't speak, and I mentioned your sadness." ”

"Not really. My sister's matter is a problem for our family anyway, in fact, I just want her to live well. She felt a deep uneasiness engulf her.

"You can come to me anytime you have anything. He reached out and patted her on the back of her hand twice, and said to her with a sincere expression.

"Thank you!" she lowered her head to stir the coffee in her cup. Suddenly, she thought of something, opened her purse and said, "Well, I'll treat you to this meal." ”

He showed a surprised expression: "I obviously said that I invited you." ”

"No, I'll please. She scrambled to rummage through her purse, but a lot of jewelry fell out.

"You...... So many things to bring with you on the street?" he saw that her purse was full of bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and so on, and his deep surprise reflected in his face.

"No, it's not...... I'm ......," she zipped up, bewildered.

"Do you have something on your mind? Can't you tell me?" he said, his sleepy but earnest eyes.

She slowly tapped her eyes, knowing that he meant well. But how can I tell him what is on my heart, and besides, it is not a glorious thing.

"Do you need money?" he moistened his throat, his eyes keen to peek into her thoughts.

She was speechless in astonishment.

"If you just need money, I can help you, you don't have to be embarrassed, tell me, how much money do you need?"

"Anyway, it's only the first time we've sat down together to talk, and it's not appropriate to talk about these things now. I can figure it out myself. ”

"Why do you have so much jewelry in your bag, if you can fix it?" he looked at her and sighed. "Are you because of your sister?"

"No, it has nothing to do with my sister. She smiled reluctantly, her expression gloomy. "Thank you, but I think I should be able to fix it. ”

Su Yinxi didn't speak again, he took out a check from his pocket and put it into her hand: "I know this money is not enough, but you can take it to the emergency first." We've all known each other for so many years. ”

"How can I ask for your money?" she was shocked, "I really don't need to. I can solve my own business. ”

"Take it, and you'll give it back to me when you have plenty of money. His hand retracted, and he picked up the spoon and scooped up the coffee. "I've been keeping some things in my heart for a long time, but now is not the time to say them. ”

She stared at him with wide eyes.

"The steak is here, let's eat it first. He greeted him courteously.

She looked at the two million check in her hand, and it was as if a warm current had poured into her heart.
