Chapter 31: The First Date

Stepping on the green bricks on the ground that have been smoothed out by the years, looking at the wanton growth of moss on the marble bank railing by the river, and smelling the faint fragrance of Sheng Qianyu's body, Uncle Dongguo's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Unable to explain it, he found that he seemed to be infatuated with this feeling, and he hoped that the heavy rain would never stop, and that the road under his feet could extend indefinitely.

In that way, he can hold an umbrella with the person in front of him all the way to Baitou.

Dong Guo Yao walked like this, so much so that he almost raised all the umbrellas to Sheng Qianyu's head, and he didn't feel that he was already wet in the rain.

Both of them felt that the atmosphere was a little dull, but neither was embarrassed to break the silence first.

In the end, it was Sheng Qianyu who spoke first: "What do you do?" ”

Dong Guo Yao thought for a moment, and then said seriously: "I'm a writer!" ”

"Wow, you're actually a writer, an online writer or a traditional writer!" Hearing this, Sheng Qian's eyes suddenly flashed with a sparkling light and asked, it seems that he admires the profession of a writer very much.

"It's all written!" Dong Guo Yao replied.

"Can you tell me about your work? If you have the chance, you will definitely go and read it. Sheng Qianyu asked with a wink of beautiful big eyes.

"What can't be said about this, but at the moment I don't have many works, and there is only one physical book for the time being, called He ......" Dong Guo Yao said this, and suddenly he didn't want to speak, because he was afraid of causing Sheng Qianyu's misunderstanding.

"What's it called?"

Hearing that there was no more to say in the middle of Dongguo Yao's words, Sheng Qianyu turned his head curiously and asked.

Turning her head, she couldn't help but be stunned.

It turned out that Dong Guo Yao was afraid that she would get drenched in the rain and gave her all the parts of the umbrella that could cover the rain, so that half of his body was already wet with rain and he didn't notice it.

"Oh, don't just give me the umbrella, give yourself a little." Sheng Qianyu hurriedly stretched out his hand and pushed the umbrella in the direction of Dong Guo Yao.

"It's fine." Dong Guo Yao said, leaning the umbrella to his side.

"Hee-hee." Looking at Dong Guo Yao's stunned appearance, Sheng Qianyu suddenly smiled.

At this moment, Dong Guo Yao only felt that the flowers of the whole world were blooming for him.

Looking at Sheng Qianyu's beautiful smile, he finally understood what it meant to look back and smile.

Dong Guo Yao said to Sheng Qian stupidly: "You are so good-looking!" ”

When Sheng Qianyu heard this, his face turned red to the root of his ears, and he said in an inaudible voice: "Hooligans! ”

Then he turned his head and ignored Dong Guo Yao again.

Dong Guo Yao, who came back to his senses, felt a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to hold an umbrella and walk beside Sheng Qianyu without saying a word.

The two didn't get in the car, and they didn't walk fast, so they walked for half an hour to get to the place to eat.

This is a western restaurant located in Jiangzhou Pedestrian Street, called "Meet".

The pedestrian street in Jiangzhou is the only piece of land in Jiangzhou that has not been eroded by commercial real estate, and most of the buildings here are old mansions left over from the Ming and Qing dynasties, which well retain the antique style.

Since the pedestrian street is located in the commercial area of Jiangzhou city center, these houses have been converted into some shops. It adds a different scenery to the modern big city of Jiangzhou, and it is a good place to go in the middle of the noise.

Therefore, the "Meet" Western Restaurant located in it has become the best choice for young couples to date.

"Meet" Western Restaurant is quite particular about decoration, combining the architectural style of old Chinese houses and incorporating some design concepts of Western architecture. The placement of furniture and the use of lighting are just right, which makes people feel as if they are in two worlds at the same time as soon as they walk into the restaurant.

"This place is nice, how did you find out? I didn't even know it before. As soon as Sheng Qianyu walked into this restaurant, she couldn't help but say that she really liked the style of this restaurant.

"Whew, you chose the right one." Dong Guo Yao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

In fact, along the way, he was thinking about where to go on his first date with Sheng Qianyu, and then thought that Sheng Qianyu had the experience of studying abroad, so he chose this Western restaurant located on the pedestrian street.

"There's a seat there, let's sit there." Dong Guo Yao said, bent down slightly, and made a gesture of please.

Sheng Qianyu nodded slightly, and then walked towards the table.

The two of them sat down in their seats, and the waiter who was in charge of ordering the food walked over.

"What do you want to eat?" The uniformed waiter put the menu in front of Dongguo Yao and Sheng Qianyu.

"Whatever you want to eat, order it." Dongguo Yao smiled and said to Sheng Qian.

"I haven't been here before, I don't know what is delicious, so you should order it." Sheng Qianyu replied.

Dongguo Yao opened the menu and looked at it, but after a long time, he couldn't make a decision.

In fact, he didn't know what was better here.

Although he knew that the Western restaurant was famous in Jiangzhou, he learned about it in an episode of "Returning to the City at Night".

That episode of the show was about what restaurants are suitable for dating in Jiangzhou, including Meet Western Restaurant.

Fortunately, the waiter seemed to see the clue and immediately said, "If you don't know what to eat, you can try the new 'Western Cowboy Set' in our restaurant." Appetizers include caramel goat cheese, beetroot gazcho with lobster, Iberian ham platter, and sweet corn lobster cream soup. The main course is New Zealand lamb chops, grilled flounder and grilled beef loin and eye. New Zealand lamb chops are made from high-quality lamb imported from New Zealand, cooked using the "natural" concept that our restaurant has always adhered to, the meat is tender, fragrant and pure. Grilled halibut and grilled beef loin are also made with high-quality ingredients, and the cooking process also restores the attractive taste of the ingredients themselves......"

The waiter skillfully read out the western cowboy set.

Dongguo Yao threw a grateful look at the waiter, and said: "Okay, let's come to this set meal, the appetizer is sweet corn cream soup, the main dish New Zealand steak, and the dessert and drink after the meal." ”

"Okay, you guys, wait a minute." The waiter put away the menu, said to the two of them for a while, and then hurried to the back kitchen.

"What are you looking at?" After ordering, Dong Guo Yao saw that Sheng Qianyu had been staring in one direction, so he asked curiously.

"Look there." Sheng Qianyu stretched out his slender index finger and pointed at a girl not far away, and spoke.

The girl looked like she was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with short shoulder-length hair, a very quiet appearance, wearing a pair of black canvas shoes on her feet, a light blue denim camisole, and a white T-shirt to set off her very literary.

The girl is carrying a folk guitar on her back, and she is arranging the microphone on the resident stage of the restaurant at the moment, which should be the singer who sings in this restaurant.

Sure enough, after adjusting the microphone, the girl sat down on the barstool with her guitar in her arms and began to try to play it a few times.

After tuning in and clearing her throat, she began to play in earnest.

Hearing the prelude played by the girl, Dong Guo Yao was suddenly stunned, because the melody she played was "Childhood".

Just when Dongguo Yao was stunned, the girl's voice sounded:

On a banyan tree by the pond

I know that I am screaming about summer

On a swing by the playground

Only butterflies stop on it

Teacher's chalk on the chalkboard

Still desperately chirping and writing

Waiting for the end of class

Waiting for the end of school

Waiting for the game of childhood
