CHAPTER XX
In the restaurant on the second floor of the Ritz-Carlton, Xu Hui asked for the advice of late autumn and opened his mouth to the waiter next to him, "I want a shrimp dumpling, water chestnut cake, a steamed osmanthus fish, a vegetable salad, and then two mangoes for bird's nest." ”
The waiter left politely after placing the order, and it was almost 8 o'clock at this time, and there were not many people in the restaurant, sitting loosely, which was very in line with the noble style here.
"Can you do this?" said Late Autumn asked him in surprise after hearing that he had just added a fish on top of himself.
"I don't eat much at night" Xu Hui smiled, originally made an appointment for dinner in late autumn today, but he didn't expect to leave when he suddenly had some urgent work to deal with, so he didn't eat until this time, it was rare that he waited for him in the nearby shopping mall for more than an hour, and there was no complaint at all, and there was no displeasure when they met, and he couldn't help but feel a little more satisfied with late autumn and was bound to come.
"I'm really embarrassed tonight, I didn't expect something to happen when I left, so I made you wait so long" Xu Hui said apologetically.
"It's nothing, I found a bookstore to read books for a while to pass the time, and it didn't take long. Late autumn opened her mouth indifferently, in fact, when Xu Hui called and said that it was necessary to be later, she could have used this to cancel the date, but she didn't do it, but really found a place to wait for him for more than an hour, and maintained such a peaceful mood, which is not surprising.
"Oh, whose books do you usually like to read?" Xu Hui asked with interest after hearing this.
"Wang Xiaobo's, Natsume Soseki's, they all like it. ”
Xu Hui smiled, she didn't expect that the type of novel she liked was quite different from what ordinary girls liked, and when she saw him sitting there laughing, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and ask, "Is there any problem?"
Xu Hui waved his hand and explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just thought that girls should like writers like Guo Jingming or Han Han." ”
Late Autumn pouted, "Everyone's preferences are different"
Xu Hui looked at her pouting, no longer such a dignified lady, there was a little more cute and delicate for no reason, and he suddenly felt itchy when he saw it, as if he had been gently crossed with a feather, although it was gentle, but it was unbearable.
After eating, Xu Hui proposed to go to the movies, and Wanqiu felt that she wanted to refuse, but Xu Hui seemed to see her thoughts, so she said that the family knew that the two of them would make an appointment to eat again tonight, and if they watched the movie after eating, it would increase the credibility of the two of them already developing.
Wanqiu glanced at him with a smile, and knew very well in her heart that the purpose of what he said was not really to increase credibility or other nonsense, but she didn't expose him, and after thinking about it, she felt that there was nothing to do when she went home, so she agreed, and the two met to watch a movie again, and when she was in the underground parking lot, Xu Hui always let her lean inside, while she walked the outer circle.
Unexpectedly, this person was quite careful, and when he walked to the elevator door, Wanqiu couldn't help but think like this.
When Ms. Luo received the news that she was going to return late in late autumn, she couldn't help but be happy in her heart, it seemed that these two children were getting along well, she flipped out the photo sent by Aunt Zhang on her mobile phone and looked at it, well, a very good young man, he is also very handsome, much stronger than the Luo Hao last time.
Thinking of Luo Hao, Ms. Luo couldn't help but snort lightly in displeasure, a guy who has no eyesight, I heard Aunt Zhang say that this Xu Hui also opened a company by himself, which is very good, although the family background is not as noble as Luo Hao, but it is smart and capable enough, which is better than anything else, the more Ms. Luo looks at it, the more she likes it, and she thinks about asking Late Autumn to find time to bring him back to see.
When Ms. Luo mentioned it to Wanqiu the next day, Wanqiu drank the bird's nest in the bowl and muttered: "He didn't ask me to meet his parents, so I brought it up to bring him to see you, wouldn't it seem that I was too proactive?"
When Ms. Luo heard this, she secretly blamed herself for being too anxious, why didn't she think of this layer? The girl can't be too active, otherwise the man will look down on her, fortunately, the child in late autumn sees far away, she looked at late autumn with great satisfaction, "It's the thoughtfulness that my mother didn't think about, fortunately you are sensible, then take him back when the opportunity is ripe."
Wanqiu smiled and nodded, and put the empty bowl on the table, "Okay Mom, don't worry, I will let him meet you when there is a suitable opportunity." With that, he got up and changed his clothes and prepared to go to the studio.
When I arrived at the studio, I saw a large bouquet of red and delicate roses on the coffee table, the three girls were lying on the sofa, Doudou and Xiao Tang were standing on the side, both of them and a cat were staring at the bouquet of flowers with great interest, after hearing the sound of her entering the door, Xiao Tang turned his head and said with an ambiguous smile: "Sister Late Autumn, the flowers sent early this morning are sincere enough."
Wanqiu was stunned, walked over, and saw a card in the bouquet, signed by Xu Hui, she couldn't help but shake her head helplessly, this person is too wrong, obviously he just said that he was just dealing with his parents, what is he doing now?
Then Xiao Tang turned his head to look at the bouquet of roses, with a nymphomaniac look, "Alas, it would be nice if I could receive such a big bouquet of roses one day, it's so romantic."
Late Autumn couldn't help but be amused by her exaggerated expression, "Don't exaggerate, it's just a bouquet of roses, as if you were talking about something great." ”
Xiao Tang turned to look at her sadly, "Sister Wanqiu, don't be hungry here, for a poor person like me who doesn't know where his boyfriend is, it is really a great thing to receive such a bouquet of loving roses one day." ”
Doudou looked at Wanqiu's expression playfully, seeing that although there was helplessness on her face, but there was no disgust, it seems that this person named Xu Hui has taken a good step this step, he seems to be able to properly grasp Wanqiu's emotions and feelings about himself, and can understand when to do what kind of things are appropriate, neither too passive and blindly waiting, nor actively annoying, the old driver, she sneered in her heart, and then took out her mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Qu Heng: When will you ask your friend named Xu Hui to meet, I have to take care of our family's late autumn。
It didn't take long to hear the mobile phone message prompt sound, she took a look, and saw Qu Heng reply to her: No problem, I'll arrange it.
At this time, there were two knocks at the door, and a man who looked like a big boy stood at the door and said a little shyly: "Hello, I'm here to order a cake." ”
Hearing that business was coming, Doudou immediately smiled like a flower and greeted him, "Come in first, what kind of cake do you want to order? When do you want it? I'll show you our brochure first." ”
The boy seemed to be a little unable to withstand her enthusiasm, his face flushed, and he stammered a little: "I want to find Late Autumn, I read her Weibo introduction." ”
Could it be another disciple who covets the beauty of Late Autumn? The smile on Doudou's face froze after hearing this, and he had the urge to throw him out immediately, but thinking that he was a customer after all, he still held back and said lazily to Late Autumn: "Late Autumn, looking for you." ”
Late Autumn also heard what the boy said, and she felt a little uncomfortable, but she smiled very reservedly and said softly: "I'm Late Autumn, do you have any requirements for the cake you want to order?"
The boy's face turned even redder when he saw her, and he seemed to have a feeling that he didn't know how to put his hands and feet, and he said a little shyly: "I followed your Weibo, and I also saw the cake you made, and I thought it was very powerful, so I wanted to order a fondant cake from you, and I wanted to use it when I proposed to my girlfriend." ”
"Are you going to get married at such a young age?" Xiao Tang couldn't help but ask in surprise after hearing this.
Doudou was also a little surprised when he heard the boy's words, but he didn't expect that his intention was to set a cake for the proposal, and after glancing at Xiao Tang, he immediately smiled and said to the boy very sincerely: "Come, sit down first, let's talk slowly." ”
The boy nodded, walked to the edge of the sofa, and saw a fat and very cute big cat with brown markings lying in the middle of the sofa, the coat was very bright and beautiful, and when he saw him looking at himself, he just looked back at him lazily, and did not want him to mean it at all, Doudou smiled embarrassedly when he saw this, and hurriedly went over to pick it up and threw it to the ground, the third girl meowed very dissatisfied, and was about to jump back, but was stopped by Doudou with his feet, and had no choice but to give up, and was temporarily aggrieved to lie at her feet.
"How did you come up with the idea of using cakes for marriage proposals, isn't it usually used at wedding banquets?"
"Because my girlfriend usually loves fondant cakes, I thought that if I could have a beautiful cake when I proposed, the success rate might be higher. When he mentioned his girlfriend, the boy's face was tender.
"Your girlfriend is so happy to have a boyfriend like you. Xiao Tang looked envious, she was caught off guard today and was sprinkled with two handfuls of dog food in a row.
"Xiao Tang, you should go and see if there are any materials in the warehouse, so we can replenish the stock in time. Doudou smiled and looked at Xiao Tang, but his eyes were naked warnings, as if to tell her that if she continued to be a nymphomaniac here, the end would be ugly, Xiao Tang stuck out his tongue, oh, and quickly hid in the warehouse.
"Then what kind of cake do you want?" asked Wanqiu with a deep groan, since it was for a marriage proposal, the requirements must not be low.
"Yes, animals, flowers, cartoons, do you have any ideas of your own?" asked Doudou with a smile.
"I see that you usually do all the looks that are very good, so I thought, can you make a picture of my girlfriend?" The boy looked at Wanqiu expectantly, looking very confident in her.
Late Autumn "......."
Doudou "......."
When Xiao Tang heard the boy's words in the storeroom, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile quietly, what an interesting person, how can a cake be made like a real person? But looking at his serious appearance, it seems that this is not a difficult thing to complete, and it is very cute and silly.
Finally, after the discussion between Doudou and the boy in late autumn, although the character shape depicted could not be as real as his girlfriend himself, it was already very charming, and the boy paid the deposit with satisfaction and agreed to pick up the goods three days later.
