When I left my house, my aunt told me repeatedly: Dongdong, at 9 o'clock on Saturday morning, it is cold and smoking, don't forget. When the time comes, my aunt will come to see you secretly!

I was so helpless about my aunt's enthusiastic gesture that I could only smile and say that it was counted, but don't get your hopes up too much.

Finally seeing off my cousin's family, I breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time a little lost, and felt that the whole family was quiet for a while.

When I returned to the living room, I was taken aback, because I saw Xue Qi just walking down the stairs, she was wearing a white dress, black hair, and a faint sadness between her eyebrows.

"Hmm...... Let's go, Qiqi come down. Facing Xue Qi, I suddenly felt a little weak and didn't know what to say, so I greeted her, Xue Qi looked outside the door of the living room, and after making sure that there was no one, she slowly walked down the stairs.

"Papa, when will they come back?" Walking to the sofa, Xue Qi suddenly raised her head and asked me.

"Oh, they're not coming for a while. What's wrong, Qiqi?"

"Not much, just a little scared. Xue Qi muttered.

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid of being seen by them. ”

"Hehe, don't worry, Qiqi, they won't know. ”

"But," Xue Qi looked at me with sorrow on her face, "Papa, what will happen to me if they see me one day?"

Xue Qi's words stopped me for a second, I thought about it, and then smiled and comforted her: "It's not going to be good, it's just a little troublesome to explain, I don't want them to know because I'm afraid of trouble, if I really know, it won't matter, Qiqi don't think too much." ”

"Oh. Xue Qi nodded, "I see." ”

"Okay, Qiqi, have you done your homework just now? Check up early and go to bed early. After I settled Xueqi, I immediately changed the subject.

"It's written. Over here. At my urging, Xueqi still took out her homework book and asked me to check it.

So next, I checked Xueqi's homework, but I don't know what's going on, I have been absent-minded in the process of checking homework, and I have been thinking about the blind date that my aunt told me, and then I think of Xueqi, I am even more uneasy.

Anyway, even if it's for Xueqi, I can't make a successful blind date.

I told myself.

After all, for 12 years, Xueqi has been the only one with me. She has no relatives, no kindergarten playmates, and lost her former elementary school classmates because of the transfer of schools, and now she is really the only one and only relies on me.

If one day I really find my love, then, what should Xueqi do?

That's the biggest reason why I've been unable to leave Xueqi behind to find my own lover.

Xueqi and I are already inseparable, and if we insist on separating us, it will only hurt us all.

I can't leave the snow behind.

I can't.

And it was with this belief that three days later, I met my blind date, a girl named Liu Yuhui.

At that time, I thought that she would only be a fleeting passerby in my life, but what I never expected was that she would become one of the most important characters in my life in the future.

Three days later, early on Saturday morning, I received a call from my cousin, and I was shocked when I answered the phone, and my cousin told me on the phone that he and my aunt had already driven to pick me up, and told me to hurry up and get ready, but not to run.

My cousin was completely on my aunt's side this time, and he came to pick me up so early, and it seemed that it was also my aunt's idea, and he didn't want me to make an excuse to slip away.

In desperation, I had to put on a neat black suit, tie, and leather shoes, and after washing up, I was ready to go out.

Actually, my original plan was to go on a blind date without even washing my face, because I didn't pay much attention to this blind date at all, I just agreed to come down for the sake of perfunctory aunt at the beginning, and I only planned to pat my ass and leave directly after a scene, if it weren't for my cousin's special emphasis on letting me dress formally, I really wanted to go unkempt, giving the woman an almost impression, and then the other party took the initiative to break up, I was so happy and relaxed.

It's a pity that reality is still reality, and it turns out that although I am a little reluctant in my heart, as a human instinct, I still dress much more formally in the end, and it can almost be compared with what I dressed when I went to the classmate's wedding with Tang Mengyan.

"Papa, where are you going, why are you dressed like this?" I changed into a suit in the bedroom, and Xue Qi lay on the bed, looking at me with sleepy eyes open, her face showing freshness and curiosity.

"I went to meet a client today, so dress modestly. I had already thought of an excuse, and after explaining my intention of going out to Xueqi, I instructed, "Papa may come back late today, and you will let Qiqi make the meal yourself." There are also fried noodles and roast duck in the fridge, which can be eaten by heating it up in the microwave. ”

"Oh. Xue Qi looked at me in a daze, listened to my words, and nodded. Xue Qi has been cooking for herself for a few years, and I have already made fried noodles last night, and just heating it up is enough for Xue Qi to eat for a day, so I don't worry about Xue Qi's self-care ability.

"That'...... Papa should be back soon. Xue Qi vaguely instructed me, then got into the bed again and began to sleep with her head covered.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon. ”

I smiled at the bulging mass in the bed like a small bag, then turned around, closed the bedroom door, and walked out.

My cousin and aunt had been waiting outside the villa for a long time, and when they saw me going out, they urged me to get in the car, saying that there was no time, you see, it was almost half past nine.

I was a little helpless and got into the car at their urging.

My aunt in the car kept talking in my ear about the precautions during the blind date, saying that I wanted to make a good impression on the other party, and I just nodded my head in agreement, but I didn't actually listen to it.

In order to be in a hurry, my cousin showed his excellent driving skills this time, originally my house to Leng Shengyan to take about 20 minutes, my cousin actually compressed to more than 10 minutes, I didn't even have the time to take a nap, the car stopped directly in front of a quaint teahouse in the city center.

"Here we are, Dongdong, this is it. Pulling down the window, my cousin pointed to the teahouse outside and reminded me.

"Okay, then I'll go...... Go back first. Don't peek. Seeing that my aunt and cousin were snooping outside the teahouse, I opened the car door and walked down, and then chased them away through the window.

"Don't worry, what are we peeking at, this is your marriage matter, you have to grasp it yourself. What we can do is to create opportunities for you, and now that the opportunities are created, it's up to you, and we won't take care of it. My aunt hurriedly grabbed the conversation and motioned for me not to worry about their prying eyes.

"Auntie, talking counts, if you suddenly run into the teahouse later, I will be ugly. ”

"You know, you go. We're leaving. My aunt said hurriedly, smiling all over her face, and then gave me a look and said, "Come on." ”

"Got it. I complained in my heart that I was bored, but I still said goodbye to my aunt, and then walked step by step to the teahouse called "Cold Smoke" in front of me.

This is a very elegant and quaint teahouse, the teahouse is completely made of bamboo, giving people a fresh and elegant feeling, in the hustle and bustle of the city, it is indeed rare to have such a quaint teahouse.

I stopped under the bamboo plaque that read "Cold Smoke", and for some reason, I was still a little indifferent before when I walked to the door, and suddenly became nervous.

I'm not going to make a good impression on the other party, so it doesn't matter what I do, so why bother like this?

I can't understand my own feelings, maybe it's human nature, no matter how calm I am beforehand, I will naturally get nervous when things really come. This is beyond man's control.

I took a deep breath at the doorway, then looked back at my aunt who was waving and smiling at me through the car window, and finally walked into the teahouse.

To my surprise, the teahouse was surprisingly small, with only three separate compartments at the back except for one service desk. Seeing me, the waiter came up and signaled, the waiter seemed to know me, saw me, asked my name, took me to a cubicle, and said to me, "Miss Liu Yuhui has been waiting for you inside for half an hour." ”

I was a little embarrassed to hear the waiter's words, I thanked the waiter, and then gently stood in front of the bamboo door of the cubicle, slowly turned the handle, and opened the door of the cubicle.

The moment I opened the door, I was a little shocked.

The interior of the cubicle is entirely Japanese, and the style inside is unbelievably simple: there is only a knee-high table and two cushions on the tatami floor, and there are no chairs. The whole compartment is small and clean...... It can be described as nothing.

There were no ornaments or furniture, except for a table, two cushions, and a floor-to-ceiling window.

This kind of design really makes me a little uncomfortable, that feeling, as if I accidentally walked into a house that has not been decorated, how can I feel that something is missing.

The table, the porcelain cups on the table, the teapot, the mats, the floor-to-ceiling windows, the tatami mats, these are the first things that come into my eye when I enter the cubicle.

It wasn't until the last glance that I saw the girl sitting on the cushion, frozen like a porcelain sculpture.
