On December 24 of the lunar calendar, in the new year, Lin Chuxue took the initiative to ask Han Gexing for lunch for the first time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Since the school holidays, Lin Chuxue has lived a life of day and night. Play games at night and sleep during the day. Because of lack of sleep, I also pushed an invitation to the Korean song line during the period. This made Lin Chuxue feel a little guilty, and because the family was going back to their hometown on the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, she took the initiative to make an appointment with Han Gexing for the first time.
For this date, Lin Chuxue deliberately gave up the anime she was chasing the night before, and after quitting the game, she went to bed early. However, when she woke up the next day, it was nearly eleven o'clock.
Fortunately, it was noon, and Lin Chuxue was glad while brushing her teeth with a blurred look in her eyes.
After washing, Lin Chuxue, who hurriedly changed her clothes, just left the house and met Lin's mother carrying several high-end packaging bags. There is no need to ask, Lin Chuxue also knows that these things are gifts to be brought back to her hometown to give to her aunt and uncle's family.
Seeing this, Lin Chuxue hurriedly reopened the door that had just been locked, and then stretched out her hand, intending to help Mother Lin carry the bag: "Mom, I'll help you get it." ”
However, Lin Mu refused, and said while walking past Lin Chuxue and inward: "No need, it's a bit heavy, you can't hold it." ”
Lin Chuxue, who was "......" weak chicken physique, was speechless, and could only stand silently outside the door.
Lin Mu put the things away, and saw that the door was not closed, and Lin Chuxue was standing outside, and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing with the pestle?" Hurry in and close the door. With that, he went to the kitchen, intending to make lunch.
Lin Chuxue hurriedly stepped into the door and said, "Mom, I have something to go out, and I won't go home for dinner at noon." ”
"Why do you have to go out at this time? Don't forget, we have to catch an afternoon flight back to our hometown, so don't miss it. Mother Lin frowned.
"No, then I'll go first." Lin Chuxue waved her hand at Lin Mu, turned around and ran to the elevator.
The sun was shining outside, and when she got out of the elevator, the moment Lin Chuxue walked out, she was almost dazzled by the white and shining sun. She reflexively raised her hand and covered it in front of her forehead. Look up and see the clear blue sky. And such clear skies are very common in the typical southern city of G City. Even though it's already winter, it rarely rains, and it's mostly sunny.
The winter sun is just as hot as it is in the sun. If it weren't for the gentle breeze that brought the slightest coldness, people would often forget that this moment is already a cold winter. The north under the same sky, snow-capped and frozen for thousands of miles. But compared to the South, it's really like two worlds.
While Lin Chuxue was hurrying, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth when she thought of her friends who wanted to hibernate in the WeChat group every day.
Approaching the Spring Festival, everyone is busy preparing for the New Year, and major shopping malls have also launched promotional activities early. Even bus and subway stations are posted with advertisements to welcome the new year, and there is a festive atmosphere everywhere. However, the New Year's flavor in big cities is still lighter than that in small towns.
Lin Chuxue was in the subway, looking at the patches of Chinese red, and couldn't help but be in a trance. A year seems to have passed in the blink of an eye.
Because Lin Chuxue was in a hurry, she made an appointment with Han Gexing at the Tianyu Department Store closest to her home. However, the place she chose this time was not Lin Chuxue's favorite Hunan restaurant, but it was also her favorite hot pot restaurant.
Unlike traditional hot pot restaurants that take the same menu and order the same thing, this Wanwan shabu-shabu does not have a single item, but only serves a set meal. There are small hot pot courses for single people, as well as a couple course and a dinner plan for four people. However, there aren't many types of packages. The attraction is that there is also a buffet. The food in the buffet area is very plentiful, with staples, snacks, seafood, desserts and drinks.
Of course, relatively speaking, the consumption here is also much higher. But because of the luxurious decoration and good atmosphere of the store, there are still many young people who like to come here, especially couples.
Lin Chuxue chose this place, not because of the style like others, but simply because the food in it was in line with her taste. Moreover, eating hot pot in winter is also a pleasure.
As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, Lin Chuxue's phone rang. pressed the answer button, and unexpectedly Han Gexing's voice came from inside.
"Come to table 27."
"Got it." Lin Chuxue responded. She thought she was coming early, but she didn't expect Han Gexing to be earlier than her.
Hanging up the phone, Lin Chuxue walked into the door of the shabu-shabu, refused to be led by the welcome girl, and walked to the location of Han Ge Xing with ease.
Lin Chuxue is also a frequent visitor here, so she quickly found Han Gexing.
Probably a waiter had come to entertain Han Gexing before, knowing that he was waiting for someone. As soon as Lin Chuxue sat down, a rather handsome-looking waiter came over with the menu.
"Have you ordered it?" Lin Chuxue flipped through the menu and asked Han Gexing.
"Waiting for you." Han Gexing said lightly, but his expression was not as cold as before, but with a trace of gentleness that was difficult for others to see.
"What about this?" Lin Chuxue spread out the somewhat heavy menu, pointed to a seafood couple's set meal, and asked Han Gexing's opinion. Although Lin Chuxue doesn't like seafood, it is acceptable to make hot pot.
"Yes." Han Gexing nodded.
"That's what you want." Lin Chuxue made the final decision.
In terms of eating, Lin Chuxue never said the word "casual". And after a few months of getting along, Han Gexing, who got to know her personality and some hobbies, never said these two perfunctory words when Lin Chuxue asked him for his opinion.
"I'll go to the self-service area to get some food, do you want to come along?" Taking the list from the waiter who went and returned, Lin Chuxue asked Han Gexing.
"Okay." Han Gexing said and got up. Lin Chuxue also got up, and the two went to the buffet area together.
Lin Chuxue doesn't know what other people's situations are like when they are in love, maybe most of them are the man who takes the initiative, and the woman enjoys the feeling of being pampered. But Lin Chuxue is lazy, but she doesn't want feelings that are just unilaterally paid. Even though in the relationship between the two, Han Gexing usually takes the initiative to invite each other, but Lin Chuxue admits that she is not treated as a princess by Han Gexing.
And the reason why she and Han Gexing can get closer and closer, Lin Chuxue thinks that it is probably because Han Gexing knows how to keep a distance. It is not deliberately flattering and flattering, but it is not so alienated that it disappoints. He seemed to know what he wanted, and knew when to go in and when to leave. Looks, it's a bit like an experienced love master, but it makes people think he's very reliable.
Han Gexing would never reject all the behaviors that Lin Chuxue might embarrass him because he wanted to maintain his image. For example, when shopping, Lin Chuxue would not ask Han Gexing to help her carry her bag. When Lin Chuxue offered to pay the bill after eating, he would not refuse. For another example, now, Lin Chuxue proposed to pick up the food for the buffet, and Han Gexing did not take this task alone. Instead, he went over with Lin Chuxue, even if the two of them didn't get much food, one person and two hands were enough.
However, Lin Chuxue likes Han Gexing's attitude. Let her feel that she is equal to him, and it will be much easier for the two of them to get along.
Han Gexing was still a little curious about Lin Chuxue's rare initiative to meet. However, he couldn't help but ask, but waited for Lin Chuxue to take the initiative to speak.
However, it wasn't until Lin Chuxue ate that her stomach was almost round. She put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and said to Han Gexing: "I'm going back to my hometown." ”
Han Gexing's hand holding chopsticks paused slightly when he heard this, and soon returned to normal, he sandwiched the cod fillets thrown in by Lin Chuxue in his hot pot into the seasoning bowl and dipped them, while asking, "When?" ”
"It's three o'clock this afternoon." Lin Chuxue pinched her fingers and replied.
Han Gexing glanced at the famous watch on his wrist, and then put down his chopsticks: "I'll send you back." ”
"But you haven't finished your food yet, don't worry." Lin Chuxue pointed to the bowl in front of Han Gexing and said, "Moreover, if you send me, it is not as fast as me taking the subway." ”
"Together." Han Gexing's rare insistence, "It's a little faster, it's not close to the airport." ”
Lin Chuxue was still about to object, but the mobile phone rang inappropriately.
"Why haven't you come back yet, you kid? The whole family is waiting for you......" As soon as Lin Chuxue's phone was connected, Lin's mother scolded her with a face.
"Mom, I'll be back soon, and I said I wouldn't delay business." Lin Chuxue hurriedly answered two sentences and hung up the phone.
"Let's go." When Lin Chuxue answered the phone, Han Gexing wittily paid the bill.
In the end, Lin Chuxue still did not refuse Han Gexing's send-off. It's just that Lin Chuxue always feels that something is wrong. Lin Chuxue, who had queued up to pass the security check, looked at Han Gexing who was waving to them, and finally remembered that she had said that she would be sent to the gate of the community, but she was sent to the airport as soon as she was delivered.
So, is this meeting with parents? Looking at the parents who were smiling and frequently turning their heads to interact with Han Gexing, Lin Chuxue said that her head was a little dizzy.
