Chapter 17: Hot Pot
"Susu, this way, this way!"
As soon as she came to the door of the hot pot restaurant, Su Anxi heard Xu Jiani's familiar voice and immediately waved at her.
"Ah~ This is the great god, hello, I'm the loofah meow. Xu Jiani walked over, and the enthusiastic Chao Xu Wen stretched out his hand.
"Hello, just call me Xu Wen. Xu Wen stretched out his hand and shook her hand.
After a short greeting, the three of them walked into the hot pot restaurant together and sat in the pre-booked position of Xu Jiani.
At the same time, Ren Lingxuan, who had been busy all day, just got home, pushed open the door, and looked at the empty living room, and felt a strong sense of loneliness.
In fact, Ren Lingxuan was used to being alone since she was a child, and when she was six years old, her father left her and her mother to form a new family.
After that, my mother devoted herself to work, leaving early and returning late, and gave Ren Lingxuan twenty yuan a day to buy food for herself.
Ren Lingxuan is also very sensible, in order not to let her mother worry too much, she can be said to be very hard in studying, in order to take out the roll full of red hooks, her mother will smile and rub her head, and say, "My Xuanxuan is awesome." ”
Growing up in such an environment, she has long been accustomed to living alone, and she doesn't feel too lonely. But after living under the same roof as Xu Wen, she suddenly found that it was such a happy thing that someone waited for her to come home every day, someone chatted about family affairs during meals, and someone shared her feelings while watching TV.
Now that Ren Lingxuan is looking at the empty nest, the loneliness that she has not felt much before will suddenly come to her heart.
Won't he be back later? With this thought, Ren Lingxuan slowly walked into the kitchen.
……
Xu Wen has talked a lot about the hot pot restaurant, from games to life, and in the chat, Xu Wen knew that Su Anxi had just graduated from college this year, which belonged to the most indulgent time period, so she could be an "Internet addict girl" every day
"Are you majoring in media, then you plan to find a job that matches your major in the future?" asked Xu Wen as he picked up a beef ball and put it in the sauce bowl.
"Well, this~ secret. Su Anxi smiled mysteriously, "What about you, a freshman junior student, what are you going to do in the future?"
Xu Wen shook his head: "I haven't started thinking about it yet." ”
Su Anxi: "I see you going to play professionally in League of Legends." ”
"No, no, where is my half-opponent. ”
"Are you still half-baked?" Su Anxi stared at Xu Wen with wide eyes: "Although my own level is not very high, I have seen a lot of masters, and I have only seen you if I can take my sister in the diamond game and maintain this winning rate." ”
Xu Wen smiled: "It's not that if you play well, you must go professional." ”
"That's the same~"
Hearing Xu Wendu say this, Su Anxi didn't continue.
After eating until 9 o'clock in the evening, the three of them left the hot pot restaurant satisfied.
"It's still early, do you want to go to the Internet café to line up again?" Su An asked Xu Wen hopefully.
"No, there's something to do when you go back. ”
Although I sent a text message to ask Ren Lingxuan just now, Ren Lingxuan also said that she was fine, but Xu Wen was still a little afraid that she would be reckless, so he thought it would be better to go back early.
"Okay~" Pouting in disappointment, Su Anxi waved at Xu Wen, "See you tomorrow." ”
"Well, see you tomorrow. ”
After speaking, Xu Wen pointed to the left and said, "I'll take the bus over there to go back, what about you?"
"We took a taxi. ”
"Okay, then I'll go first. After speaking, Xu Wen waved at them and walked away.
As soon as Xu Wen left, Xu Jiani, who had been standing silently next to her, suddenly pinched the soft flesh on Su Anxi's waist and said, "Okay~ No wonder you hide it so tightly, it turns out to be such a little brother who is both beautiful and artistic." ”
"Phew, who hid!" Su Anxi decisively denied.
"Yes, yes, you didn't hide. Xu Jiani had an expression that I understood, "But where did you pick up this little fresh meat with beauty and technology, tell me, I'll pick one up too." ”
"Guohai Park Blind Date Corner!" Su Anxi said angrily, and then stopped a taxi that turned around.
……
"Click, click"
"Click, click"
Looking at the door lock in front of him, Xu Wen sighed helplessly, although Ren Lingxuan had taught him the trick of opening this lock at the beginning, but every time he opened the door, it always failed and did not work.
And just as he was about to try to unlock it for the third time, the door "clicked" open.
"You're back. Ren Lingxuan in the room welcomed him with a smile.
"Well, it's a little late today, I bought some grapes on the way, can we eat them together?" asked Xu Wen as he picked up a plastic bag.
"Okay, but before you eat the grapes...... I have something to discuss with you. ”
"Oh, what's the matter?" Xu Wen asked curiously, putting on his slippers.
"emmmm......" Ren Lingxuan lowered her head and teased Liuhai, and after a long time of confusion, she said, "Have you tried to share a house?"
"Shared apartment?" Xu Wen was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "That's not true." ”
"That'...... Do you want to try sharing a house with me?" After speaking, Ren Lingxuan hurriedly added: "Look, you keep saying that the house you rented is inconvenient, and I just want to change the environment, and if there is anything to take care of each other, it feels like the best of both worlds, what do you think?"
Looking at Ren Lingxuan's nervous appearance, Xu Wen replied with a smile: "Okay." ”
He knew that Ren Lingxuan might not have come out of the shadows yet, but he didn't want to trouble himself like this all the time, so he came up with such a solution, and it would be more cost-effective for him to rent a house for two people, so he didn't have any reason to refuse.
Hearing Xu Wen's decisive answer, Ren Lingxuan raised her face and said with a smile: "It's great if you are willing to agree, then I'll check the rental house later, choose a place that is closer to my company and your university, and let's take a look at the house type and community environment together." ”
"Okay, then I'll go wash the grapes first. ”
……
When choosing a house, Xu Wen found that this kind of thing is still more careful for girls, unlike herself, when she first rented a house, she only thought about cheapness, and a series of other problems such as old houses, inconvenient transportation, furniture and interiors were not considered at all.
"That'...... Let's go to these houses this weekend. ”
After careful selection, Ren Lingxuan took a fancy to the three suites, all of which had their own advantages, so she decided to go to the field to make a final decision.
"Okay. Xu Wen nodded, looked at the wall clock on the wall, which was already pointing to 12 o'clock, and said to Ren Lingxuan: "Go to bed early, you have to go to work tomorrow." ”
"Wow, that's it. Ren Lingxuan, who glanced at the wall clock, was taken aback, she thought that they had only chosen for a short time.
"Then you wash up first, I'll clean this up. After Xu Wen finished speaking, he picked up the grape skin and walked to the kitchen.
Looking at Xu Wen's back, Ren Lingxuan couldn't help but look down at her phone screen with a smile.
The screen wallpaper is a crayon drawing, and a girl running through an empty street with a document bag under the blue starry sky, and between the starry sky and the girl, there is a line written here.
[Work harder, you will meet better people, and a better future]
