Chapter 35: Candlelight Dinner
On Saturday afternoon, Lu Mingxuan came back from a business trip and invited Tang Xiaoya to his apartment for a candlelight dinner.
Because of someone's confusion these days, Tang Xiaoya promised that she was ready to enjoy the world between the two. She specially picked out a close-fitting long line shirt to wear, the gorgeous rose red, which looked dazzling, and the waist was also just right, setting off the original slender figure exquisitely.
Ready, she turned around in the mirror, the beautiful shadows in front of her eyes, her eyes were like water, her lips were like red, and she carried her bag downstairs with satisfaction. As soon as he got out of the elevator, Xu Jun walked in from outside with a briefcase, dusty.
"Hey, I just came back......" Tang Xiaoya smiled at him, rotten like a spring flower, but unexpectedly it stuck to a cold butt.
"Dating a boyfriend?" Xu Jun paused, glanced at her, and saw Tang Xiaoya nodding and walking over with a slight smile, her expression was very light, and she didn't even bend the corners of her eyes.
Business talks are broken? Or is it not going well with Miss Anne? She secretly pouted and grimaced at the disappearing figure, "Miss Ben is in a good mood today, and she is not as knowledgeable as a copper-smelling merchant. ”
She drove the little cupid to Lu Mingxuan's apartment. The apartment is a hotel service, with a space of more than 100 square meters, and it is very spacious to live alone.
After Lu Mingxuan opened the door for her, he gave her a long kiss by the way, and then took her hand to the living room, "You sit on the sofa for a while, watch TV, I'll go and get busy, and it will be fine soon." After saying that, he put on his apron and turned around and walked into the kitchen.
Tang Xiaoya turned around blindly, idle, opened the sliding door of the kitchen, looked at the busy tall figure and smiled, the person had already gotten in, "Mingxuan, I'm here to help......"
"Well, I was missing a start." Lu Mingxuan nodded helplessly.
One washes vegetables and peels garlic, the other cuts meat and stir-fries, the atmosphere is very warm, and it seems to have returned to five years ago.
Lu Mingxuan's hands and feet were nimble, and in less than half an hour, he brought out four dishes and one soup, fried shrimp, steamed osmanthus fish, roast beef with potatoes, sweet and sour cabbage, and bitter gourd pork rib soup.
"Taste it." Lu Mingxuan didn't eat, but he picked all the dishes into the bowl opposite with chopsticks, and saw that she was satisfied with eating, so he picked up the bowl.
Tang Xiaoya had the vegetables in her mouth, her cheeks bulging one after another, and she didn't forget to praise, "Mingxuan, your skills seem to have progressed longer, and if you are unemployed in the future, you can consider becoming a chef in a five-star hotel, and those who cook better than you are not as handsome as you, so you must be popular." ”
"Poor mouth," Lu Mingxuan raised the corners of his eyebrows, too happy, and then leaned over and whispered, "I'll make it for you to eat alone." ”
"Hmm." Tang Xiaoya raised her head and looked at him, a little sweet and a little bitter.
Before going to the United States, once Lu Mingxuan planned the future with her and promised to cook for her for the rest of his life, but a few months later, everything changed dramatically, so everything came to naught. And this time, will it repeat the mistakes of the past?
After the meal, the two of them sat on the soft chair on the balcony to watch the moon while slowly sipping red wine. The moonlight dissolves like a promise, the breeze blows, and a piece of light flickers brightly, leaving a vague phantom in the darkness.
The scenery is beautiful, and the relative people can't help but be appethereal. Lu Mingxuan took away the wine glasses in their hands, hugged her body, gently supported her face and printed it, slowly tossing and turning, with a little warmth, a little apology, and a little love. In order to get rid of schizophrenia as soon as possible, Tang Xiaoya also cheered up and responded positively, and the two of them were ashamed to breathe.
Suddenly, a crisp doorbell rang, paused for a few seconds, and then persevered, waking up the two people who were drunk.
"Mingxuan, someone is coming......" Tang Xiaoya pushed the person away and pulled away for a distance. It's a little funny in my heart.,Last time in the Q playground too.,This time too.,Why is it that when it's critical.,The bell always comes to sabotage?
"Who's so scenic?" Lu Mingxuan reluctantly left her lips and got up and walked to the door.
As soon as Tang Xiaoya walked to the living room, she heard a pleasant child's voice coming from the door, and with a warm hug and cheers, she hurriedly walked out of the hall to take a look, and was stunned for a few seconds.
There was a woman leaning against the doorway, with a smile in her eyes, waist-length waves, and a white skirt tightly wrapped in bumps. And at this moment, in Lu Mingxuan's arms, a cute little girl was blinking at her, "Uncle Lu, who is this aunt?" ”
Lu Mingxuan put down the little beauty, took her hand and introduced, "Mr. Shen, this is my girlfriend Tang Xiaoya." HE LOOKED BACK AT HER AND SMILED, "XIAOYA, THIS IS MR. SHEN, AND HER DAUGHTER SANDY." They had just returned to China and were living in this apartment. ”
"You're welcome." Tang Xiaoya hurriedly let her into the living room, but she had mixed feelings in her heart. Shen Mingfang returned to China with her daughter to settle down? Why did Lu Mingxuan not mention a word?
Shen Mingfang was generous, stretched out his hand and shook it gently, "Miss Tang, fortunately, I used to hear Mingxuan often mention you, but when I saw it today, he was really a beautiful woman, no wonder he was so worried about it." ”
SANDY ON THE SIDE SUDDENLY BECAME UNHAPPY, POUTING AND CRYING, "MOM, UNCLE IGNORES ME, I WANT UNCLE TO PLAY WITH ME." ”
Shen Mingfang was suddenly a little embarrassed, squatted down and coaxed her, "Uncle has a guest today, let's come back another day, okay?" ”
SANDY KEPT CRYING, AND LU MINGXUAN HURRIEDLY CARRIED HER TO THE SOFA AND COAXED HER. TANG XIAOYA STOOD AT THE ENTRANCE, SUDDENLY FEELING THAT SHE WAS AN OUTSIDER, AND SHE HAD THE URGE TO FLEE IN A PANIC, SO SHE PICKED UP HER BAG AND SAID GOODBYE, "MINGXUAN, YOU AND MR. SHEN AND SANDY WILL REUNITE AFTER A LONG ABSENCE, AND TALK SLOWLY." Tonight, Xiaoyou will come back from Shencheng, and I will go first. ”
"Oh, okay then." Lu Mingxuan and Shen Mingfang raised their heads at the same time, looking full of pictures.
Tang Xiaoya walked into the elevator, her mood was inexplicably complicated, and she couldn't tell whether it was jealousy, sadness, or emptiness...... Obviously people who have no intimate relationship, why does it seem so harmonious? She remembered the words she had heard in the café that day. During the five years in the United States, Shen Mingfang and Lu Mingxuan got along day and night, fought side by side, and shared weal and woe. SANDY AND LU MINGXUAN ARE SO FAMILIAR THAT THEY CAN SEE THAT THE TWO SPEND A LOT OF TIME TOGETHER...... She felt that she was afraid, and there was a kind of sadness that floated faintly in her heart...... Maybe it's just her woman's sixth sense at work?
Along the way, she was thinking nonsense, and then she simply sat in front of the courtyard of her apartment blowing the cold wind, looking a little lonely......
Xu Jun was wearing a sweatshirt, slowly ran over from a distance, and saw Tang Xiaoya sitting on the bench in a daze, and couldn't help but walk over, sat beside her, and drank water with a grunt, "What's the matter, come back so soon, did the date go well?" ”
"Of course." Tang Xiaoya smiled, the smile floated on her face, shallow, not soaked into Wang Yang's eyes, "Candlelight dinner, moonlight sorrel, everything is so dreamy...... If there is no follow-up scene, it would be perfect."
Xu Jun looked at the street lamp not far away, and felt a kind of depression in his heart, "Xiaoya, is Lu Mingxuan really that good?" Is it worth hiding in your heart and waiting for five years? ”
Tang Xiaoya recalled while counting his benefits, "Well, he is gentle and careful, considerate, sometimes I want to be picky, but I can't always find fault with him." I waited for him here for five years, and he waited for me in the United States for five years, and now, we can meet again, it is a destiny destined by God, how can I not cherish it? The last sentence of the last sentence seemed to be said to herself.
"Then I bless you and reunite with the broken mirror." Xu Jun threw down a cold sentence and walked away with his long legs.
Half a month later, Tang Xiaoya found that the door was quiet again. When she goes out in the morning or returns in the evening, she will inexplicably stop for a few seconds, as if expecting some sudden movement or a familiar face to flash, but every time she is stunned.
