In a Sichuan-style hot pot restaurant near the mall, Ji Xiaoru ordered a lot of dishes in a big way, looking at the steaming hot pot soup base in front of her, Ji Xiaoru was already gearing up before the dishes were served.

Ji Xiaoru praised without hesitation: "Look at this butter, look at the tomatoes and wolfberries floating on it, I feel that my saliva is about to fly down 3,000 feet!

"Well," Tang Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "Who told us that the heavens and the earth are rich in natural resources? If it were a country where the land was barren and poor, and there was nothing to ask for, then the common people would be thinking about filling their stomachs all day long, and where would they have time to study how to make delicious food?"

"Makes sense. Ji Xiaoru nodded again and again: "Thank you for the prosperity of our great motherland, I really love our country more and more now! Especially after playing around with Lu Chenxi abroad, I feel more and more that our country is good everywhere!"

"Is it so exaggerated? ”

"That's different," Ji Xiaoru said in a heartfelt manner: "Happy is happy, but my taste buds have never been satisfied for a moment, the scenery of foreign countries has foreign beauty and law, the eyes are full, but the stomach is not full, I am abroad all the time thinking about our Chinese food, especially this-"

Ji Xiaoru once again cast her salivating gaze on the red and oily bottom of the pot in front of her, and snorted a mouthful of saliva by the way: "Hey, why can't we serve the dishes we ordered? I'm really hungry to death." ”

This hot pot restaurant is a very famous chain, because the taste is authentic and the portion is full, and the price has not increased for decades, and the meat is absolutely fresh, the business has been very hot, every meal. Everyone in the queue outside can circle the storefront several times.

Tang Xiao and Ji Xiaoru came early today, and they only waited for about ten minutes before coming in.

However, the hot pot restaurant was crowded, and there was no vacancy as far as the eye could see, which showed that the business was indeed good.

The clerk kept shuttling through the food with it, and he couldn't stop for a moment, and in this case, there was really no way to complain about the restaurant because he had to wait for ten or even twenty minutes for the food to be served.

"Wait. Tang Xiao didn't look anxious at all, sitting opposite Ji Xiaoru while talking to Ji Xiaoru while looking at his phone.

"Xiaoxiao, what about you swiping Weibo?" asked Ji Xiaoru.

"Hmm...... That's right. Tang said with a smile.

Ji Xiaoru also took out her mobile phone, and said a little depressed at the same time: "I don't know what's going on, Lu Chenxi hasn't chatted with me much on WeChat in the past two days, do you think he should be empathetic?"

"Poof......" Tang Xiao hurriedly moved his eyes from the screen of his mobile phone, looked at Ji Xiaoru and said, "Don't think nonsense, isn't Lu Chenxi with Cheng Lie, even if he empathizes and doesn't fall in love, who can he fall in love with?"

"Hahaha......" Ji Xiaoru couldn't help laughing when she heard it: "No, right? Hey, what if the two of them are really a couple?"

"Impossible. Tang smiled and said: "Cheng Lie is definitely straight. ”

Ji Xiaoru nodded, still with a smile on her face: "I also think that Lu Chenxi can't be bent, if he is really bent, then I can't spare him." ”

Tang Xiaoren smiled: "Don't worry, if he bent it a long time ago, where did he have to wait until now?"

"That's it, besides, it's impossible for a real to get hard!" Ji Xiaoru said with a grin.

The tables in the hot pot restaurant were already close to each other, and Ji Xiaoru's voice was loud, and as soon as this sentence came out, several men at the table next to him looked sideways.

Tang Xiao couldn't help but reach out to cover his forehead, and for the first time he had the urge to pretend not to know Ji Xiaoru.

As for Ji Xiaoru herself, she is completely unaffected by other people's eyes.

Tang Xiao was about to say something, when the mobile phone in his hand "buzzed" and vibrate.

When I picked it up, it was WeChat sent by Cheng Lie, two simple words: good-looking.

The corners of Tang Xiao's lips hooked.

raised her eyes and glanced at Ji Xiaoru, and saw that she was lowering her head and scrolling on Weibo, so she quickly replied to Cheng Lie: Then I will buy it for you.

Soon, the phone vibrated again, and when he looked again, Cheng Lie grinned with bared teeth.

Just by looking at this smiling expression, Tang Xiao could make up for Cheng Lie's stupid appearance.

Who would have thought that the usually cold growth officer would be as happy as a child because his wife wanted to buy him a watch?

When Tang Xiao was just picking out a gift for Tang Mi with Ji Xiaoru at the jewelry counter, he glanced at the watch counter next to him a few times, and one of the simple mechanical watches immediately attracted Tang Xiao's attention.

There were so many watches lined up on the counter, but there was only that one, and Tang Xiao couldn't take his eyes off it after taking a look.

It was a black mechanical watch, all pure black from the dial to the strap, and there was almost no decoration, which was very different from other diamond-encrusted watches.

But Tang Xiao only glanced at it, and felt that this watch must be very suitable for Cheng Lie.

She had also seen Cheng Lie's other watches at home, almost dozens of them, all kinds of everything, but she remembered that Cheng Lie said that those were bought for him by his family or relatives, and he didn't particularly like them.

Cheng Lie occasionally wears a watch, but also on some special occasions with suits.

In peacetime in the army, it is absolutely impossible for Cheng Lie to wear a watch.

After Tang Xiao and Cheng Lie got married, they almost never gave Cheng Lie anything, so when she saw this watch, she instantly had the urge to buy it and give it to Cheng Lie.

It's just that because she was with Ji Xiaoru just now, she was afraid that Ji Xiaoru would find out that she and Cheng Lie didn't quarrel, so she restrained herself, and just secretly took a photo of the watch with her mobile phone when Ji Xiaoru wasn't paying attention and sent it to Cheng Lie.

Although Cheng Lie only replied concisely with the word "good-looking", Tang Xiao knew that the watch he was looking at must be very synthetic.

Tang Xiao held the mobile phone, imagining in his head what Cheng Lie would look like when he wore the watch, and he actually had the urge to buy the watch immediately.

I really want to see Cheng Lie right away, and then put this watch on for him with my own hands. Tang Xiao thought silently in his heart.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing in a daze?" Ji Xiaoru's voice pulled Tang Xiao back to reality.

"Oh? no...... I was just wondering if we had enough food we had just ordered. Tang Xiao said casually.

"Poof!" Ji Xiaoru was shocked: "Isn't it?, have you forgotten that the two of us have already ordered more than a dozen plates, and it is more than enough for two people to eat!"

"Ah, yes? That's good. Tang smiled and said: "Do you still remember, when I was in college, I didn't have money to eat hot pot, so I could only eat spicy hot pot to get over my addiction, and at that time, I was most envious of those who could order a big table of dishes in a hot pot restaurant." ”

"yes. Thinking of the embarrassed appearance in the past, Ji Xiaoru also smiled: "I really didn't expect that in just a few years, we have become the kind of people we dreamed of, how good is this! It's a qualitative leap, isn't it? So, it's still good to be alive, at least, you can eat so many delicious food, which is what I dreamed of before." ”

"Hmm. Tang Xiao looked at Ji Xiaoru thoughtfully and said, "Then you promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you must think that there are countless delicacies waiting for you to eat in the world, and you must live well." ”

"That's a must!" Ji Xiaoru said with a relaxed face: "I, Ji Xiaoru, am not the kind of person who likes to drill the horns of the bull, don't worry, I will live well and eat all the food in the world!

Ji Xiaoru felt strange, it was obvious that the person who had not been in a good relationship recently was Tang Xiao, but how did he become Tang Xiao to worry about herself?

"Well, not really. Tang Xiao still had a smile on his face, but there was a faint sadness in his eyes.

She once again thought of Ji Xiaoru, who was in her sleep in the morning with tears on her face.

In Xiaoru's heart, she must have never forgotten Lu Chenxi's death.

It's just that the truth was buried in her heart by herself.

Is the current Ji Xiaoru truly happy?

What happens when she remembers the nightmare that lies deep in her heart?

As Ji Xiaoru's only best friend, how can she not worry about her.

Being stared at by Tang Xiao, Ji Xiaoru seemed to notice something, and said sensitively: "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you?

"No, no. Tang Xiao rubbed his cheeks quickly, trying to make himself look happier.

Ji Xiaoru looked at her suspiciously, and wanted to continue to ask, but at this moment, the waiter in the store came over with a plate.

"Wow, it's time to go!" said Tang Xiao rubbing his hands excitedly.

Ji Xiaoru's attention was immediately attracted by the waiter's plate.

"Tut, this shop is really a conscientious merchant! Look at this mutton roll, look at this shrimp slippery, and look at this tripe, my mother, it's amazing!" Ji Xiaoru said as she spoke, her mouth secreting saliva again.

The bottom of the pot was already boiling at this time, and Ji Xiaoru couldn't wait to pour the whole plate of mutton rolls into it.

For about ten seconds, the two tacitly reached into the pot with their chopsticks at the same time, and each picked up the tender and delicious mutton rolls that had just been scalded.

The food is enough to make people forget all their troubles, and when they were feasting, Tang Xiao and Ji Xiaoru didn't even forget to speak.

After eating until the belly bulged, the action of the two of them constantly stretching their chopsticks slowed down.

Even so, the two had no intention of resting.

"Hmm, it's delicious!" Ji Xiaoru touched her bulging belly while picking up a fish ball from the pot and stuffing it into her mouth.

"Yes, this restaurant tastes so authentic!" Tang Xiao also scooped up a boiled cheese beef balls from the pot.

The only way to solve your worries is good food.

The satisfaction of the taste buds is enough to offset all the sorrows.

But maybe she ate too fast, Ji Xiaoru likes spicy food, and while eating until her belly is round, her stomach also began to make noise.

After a while, she couldn't help but stand up with her stomach in her hands and said, "Xiaoxiao, I'll go to the toilet, you eat first!"

As he spoke, without waiting for Tang Xiao to answer, he walked tremblingly in the direction of the bathroom.

Tang Xiao still had a half-eaten fish ball in his mouth, and he couldn't help crying and laughing when he saw this.

Eating hot pot is always the more people you eat, the more fragrant it is, as soon as Ji Xiaoru left, Tang Xiao was a little bored eating alone.

simply stopped the chopsticks, and waited for Ji Xiaoru to return while scrolling through Weibo.

After a few minutes, Ji Xiaoru still showed no signs of coming back, and Tang Xiao couldn't help but >

Ji Xiaoru replied: It doesn't matter...... But I guess I'll have to squat for a while.

Tang smiled and said: Okay, then you take your time, don't worry.

Ji Xiaoru: Good ...... Wait until I've empty my stomach and fight again.

Tang Xiao smiled and shook his head, thinking that Xiaoru, a foodie, was really eating hot pot with his life.

After waiting for a few more minutes, Tang Xiao was really bored, and suddenly thought about it-

It just so happens that Xiaoru is not here, can't you take advantage of this time to go to the shopping mall next door and buy the watch?

Tang Xiao didn't have a chance to ask carefully just now, what if there was only one watch left, or if it was simply a limited edition, and someone else bought it in two days?

Tang Xiao rarely took a fancy to something for Cheng Lie, but he didn't want it to end up in vain at that time.

Moreover, Tang Xiao really wanted to see Cheng Lie wear the watch he bought for him.

Thinking about it like this, Tang Xiao no longer hesitated, stood up directly, took his and Ji Xiaoru's bags, explained a few words to the waiter, and hurried to the shopping mall next to him.

Next to the jewelry counter in the mall, Sun Mo was accompanying Ren Feilin to choose a necklace.

"Do you like diamonds, or do you like gemstones?" Sun Mo pretended to be generous and said: "As long as you like it, just say it." Don't be embarrassed. ”

Ren Feilin pursed her lips, her eyes swept around the counter in front of her, and she thought to herself, if it was Brother Lie, he wouldn't say such a thing.

A man like Brother Lie will definitely directly ask the clerk to bring the most expensive limited edition.

If a man is genuinely willing to spend money for a woman, where will he need a woman's opinion.

Just buy it directly, and what woman can refuse a domineering man who is willing to spend a lot of money for herself?

This Sun Mo ...... In the end, he is still a phoenix man, and he is a little too small.

Sun Mo didn't know what Ren Feilin was thinking, he felt that his behavior was very decent and chic, and when his eyes looked at himself in the mirror, he was almost overwhelmed by his charming demeanor.

A man as good as him, no matter what kind of woman he is, should obediently surrender to him and be conquered by his charms.

And at this moment, he accidentally saw the figure of a woman walking from a distance in the mirror.

Just a glimpse, Sun Mo couldn't help but turn around and look at the woman in a ghostly manner.

Although at that moment, he also thought in his heart that such a move would make Ren Feilin beside him unhappy, but he still couldn't control himself.

The woman walked very fast, not looking at the jewelry counter at all, and seemed to go straight to the watch counter next to her.

She didn't notice Sun Mo's gaze at all, but Sun Mo had to notice her.

Even, when he looked at her, he couldn't help but wonder, did he see her somewhere?

This woman ...... There's really a different kind of temperament.

Her skin was white and she didn't look like she was wearing much makeup, but she was even more eye-catching than Ren Feilin.

The long hair is so casually draped, gently fluttering with the steps, like a waterfall, so natural and fresh.

She was very tall, and she looked much taller than Ren Feilin, but she was not the kind of height that men were afraid of.

To be precise, her height is the same as the feeling she gives people, very "goddess-like".

And her figure is also very perfect, convex and backward, graceful, the delicate collarbones and plump and even-toned shoulders, as well as the slender waist, are so upside down.

Sun Mo found that in addition to him, there were several men next to him who were staring at the woman.

And the woman was unaware of all this.

Sun Mo's eyes watched nostalgically as she passed by him, bringing a gust of fragrant wind, and then drifting away.

Until you stop in front of the watch counter next to it.

He couldn't help but think, what kind of man is worthy of such a woman?

Is he Sun Mo worthy?

Originally, he thought that Ren Feilin was beautiful enough. However, when he saw this woman, he understood what true beauty was.

Compared to her, Ren Feilin always seems to be a little worse.

What is it?

Sun Mo's eyes locked on the woman who was talking to the teller, pondering in his heart.

The woman's side face is also so good-looking, the corners of her gently raised mouth, and her sparkling eyes are so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.

Before he could come up with an answer, a voice suddenly sounded in his ear: "Sun Mo, I like this...... Sun Mo?"

Sun Mo turned his head as if he had just woken up from a dream and saw Ren Feilin looking sideways at him.

Her carefully drawn eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a look of doubt appeared on her fair and beautiful face.

In an instant, Sun Mo suddenly understood.

Ren Feilin didn't look natural enough.

Her whole person seems to be carefully packaged.

Beauty is beautiful, but it is like a beautiful woman wearing painted skin, without that natural and dynamic charm.

And the unknown woman is the opposite.

He could see that she was dressed casually, but she was full of confidence and health.

In comparison, Ren Feilin looks too slender, and even when she is smiling, she inexplicably gives people a feeling of being preoccupied.

Is it a delusion?

No, Sun Mo was willing to trust his own instincts as a man.

Moreover, he is not just an ordinary man, he used to be a police officer.

He quickly adjusted his smile and said to Ren Feilin: "Buy it if you like." ”

Ren Feilin still frowned slightly, and asked suspiciously, "Sun Mo, what were you looking at just now?"

Sun Mo could feel Ren Feilin's displeasure.

And Ren Feilin at this moment is indeed a little unhappy.

She hated the feeling of being overlooked, especially since this man was a man she didn't like at all.

Since then, even such a man can not take himself seriously?

He just ...... Are you looking at other women?

Ren Feilin didn't believe that there were more beautiful women than herself in this mall.
