Chapter Ninety-Six: The Key to Romance

As soon as Tang Jingjing entered the restaurant, she saw a huge Western oil painting, with gorgeous decoration and bright lights, as if she had entered the palace.

"Hello, do you have a reservation?" The waiter greeted him professionally, but there was obvious disdain in his eyes.

"Which table did Mr. Li Guobin order?" Tang Jingjing didn't blame the waiter's attitude, and asked with a smile.

"Please come with me." When the waiter heard this, he was obviously a lot warmer.

"Jingjing, please be seated." When Li Guobin saw someone coming, he immediately stood up and said happily.

Li Guobin is the kind of man who makes people feel good at first sight, always with a warm smile. It gives people the feeling of a big brother next door, and it is very trustworthy. Today, he wore a pair of beige slacks and a light blue shirt, which made him look even more handsome. Tang Jingjing could feel that he attached great importance to this date.

"Hmm." Tang Jingjing smiled slightly and sat down. Seeing Li Guobin's enthusiastic smiling face, she couldn't bear to splash cold water on the other party.

"If you want to eat something, they say they have a good steak here." Li Guobin enthusiastically introduced. He really couldn't contain his joy.

"Let's have a steak, then." Tang Jingjing said with a smile. Actually, she prefers Chinese food.

Li Guobin ordered two steaks, asked for some small snacks, two cups of coffee, if Tang Jingjing hadn't shouted to stop, he might have asked for more.

Li Guobin felt that Tang Jingjing had always been very polite, and there was a sense of alienation, and he didn't talk much. It made him a little nervous.

"Don't you like it here?" Li Guobin asked tentatively.

"No, but seriously, I prefer that little noodle shop." Tang Jingjing smiled and confessed.

"To be honest, I'm not used to it either." Li Guobin smiled. During his years of studying, he rarely ate Western food.

"And you still come to such a luxurious place? It's too expensive. Tang Jingjing said with a smile.

"It is said that eating Western food is the best way to date, warm and romantic, it seems that I have been cheated by the Internet." Li Guobin looked at Tang Jingjing's smile and felt a ripple in his heart.

"State guest, I think it......" Tang Jingjing hesitated and didn't know what to say.

"Why don't we change stores?" Li Guobin seemed to have a premonition that Tang Jingjing was going to say something, so he interrupted.

"People are here, dishes are ordered, and they can't be wasted." Tang Jingjing said.

"Alright, here it is." Li Guobin said.

After a while, the meals they ordered came up one by one.

The two of them ate quietly, but they seemed to have something to say, but they were just looking for a suitable opportunity.

"Jingjing."

"State guests."

Both seemed to be overwhelmed by the overly quiet atmosphere, and spoke almost simultaneously.

"You speak first." Li Guobin said angrily.

"I would say I prefer the feeling of being in a small noodle restaurant." Tang Jingjing is actually hinting that she hopes that the two are friends.

"Me too." I don't know if Li Guobin understood the meaning of Tang Jingjing's words, smiled bitterly and said.

"Next time I'll treat you to noodles." Tang Jingjing said with a smile.

"Okay."

In this way, the meal was tepid. The two of them have their own thoughts, but they are at odds with each other. Li Guobin's pre-arranged lines were not spoken. He thought that maybe he was a little anxious, and he should give her more time to get used to-

Zhang Zongnian came to the door of the ward and hesitated to go in.

"Professor Zhang?" A young doctor shouted in surprise.

"Diplores? I haven't seen you kid out for a few years. "Zhang Zongnian didn't expect to meet him here. This young man can be regarded as his out-of-school student, and he often runs to listen to his lectures when he goes to school, and he has a lot of problems.

"Teacher, what are you doing here?" Shang Libo smiled.

"Come and see the individual." Zhang Zongnian pointed to the door and said.

"Oh, would you like me to say hello for you?" Shang Libo asked. Although he has not been here for a long time, he has a good relationship with everyone.

"I'll look for you when I use you." Zhang Zongnian said politely.

"When I go to the house to sit with you one day, I will be hungry for the braised fish made by my wife." Shang Libo said.

"No problem." Zhang Zongnian said with a smile.

"That, the leader is looking for me, don't nag for now." Shang Libo said.

"Let's get busy." Zhang Zongnian said. I thought to myself, the people inside must have heard the conversation between me and Shang Libos, and I have to go in if I don't go in.

Indeed, Zhang Aiguo in the ward had already heard the conversation at the door.

"Dad, I'll come and see Aunt Li." As soon as Zhang Zongnian entered the door, he explained his intentions.

"Quietly, she's just fallen asleep." Zhang Aiguo reminded in a low voice.

"What did the doctor say?" Zhang Zongnian asked.

"That's it." Zhang Aiguo sighed and said decadently.

"Dad, you have to pay attention to your body too." Zhang Zongnian persuaded distressedly. He could see that although there were two beds in this separate ward, his father must not have rested well for the past two days.

"If you still have a conscience, you know to come and see." Zhang Aiguo pretended to be angry and said.

"Look at what you said." Zhang Zongnian said with a weak heart. He was a little angry at first, so he never came. The key is that Li Aiying's eldest daughter is the vice president of this hospital, so he is not worried at all.

"There's nothing going on here, let's go." Zhang Aiguo said.

"Dad, I figured it out. If you want to have a wedding, just let me know. Zhang Zongnian lowered his head and spoke slowly.

"Yes, you can stop me." Zhang Aiguo's tone was not good, but there was a clear smile on his face.

"Yes, yes." Zhang Zongnian nodded vigorously. He knew that the old man was very happy in his heart.

"Let's go, let's go, your Aunt Li will be discharged from the hospital in two days." Zhang Aiguo said.

"Well, I'm leaving. I'm calling. Zhang Zongnian got up and retreated.

"You know what? My son agreed to get married. Zhang Aiguo whispered to himself beside Li Xiuying's bedside, with old tears.

"I see." Li Xiuying said softly in her heart. In fact, when Zhang Zongnian was talking to someone outside the door, she woke up. When she heard the conversation between Zhang Zongnian and the old man, the guilt in her heart finally disappeared.

After eating Western food, Tang Jingjing went home under the pretext. She obviously saw Li Guobin's frustration, but since she didn't love it, she shouldn't hesitate, otherwise it would hurt people even more.

When Tang Jingjing returned home, the light was really black.

Wei Lin is a person who is very good at coaxing girls to be happy, Gu Xue'er should be very sweet tonight, right?

"Oh no, Manager Zhang's quarterly report hasn't been written yet, and tomorrow is the deadline." Tang Jingjing suddenly remembered the task given to her by Zhang Zhiqiang, so she hurriedly put away those messy moods and ran back to the bedroom to work.

Two hours later, I barely had a first draft. Let's do it first, and then change it tomorrow. Tang Jingjing said to herself.

"This guy won't stay awake all night, will he?" After washing, Tang Jingjing looked at the clock on the wall, it was almost 11 o'clock, so she said to herself.

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of high heels hitting the ground sounded outside the door, it should be Gu Xue'er back.

"Did you just come back?" Gu Xue'er asked as soon as she entered the door. She thinks Li Guobin should have a lot of arrangements tonight.

"How can I have your sweetness, I've been back a long time ago." Tang Jingjing pretended to smile sourly.

"Huh? Why? Gu Xue'er couldn't believe it.

"How is Wei Lin doing?" Tang Jingjing did not answer the rhetorical question.

"It's okay." Gu Xue'er smiled.

"Silly." Tang Jingjing said with a smile.

"Do you know who gave those wilting roses? It turned out to be Wei Lin, and Li'er died. Gu Xue'er said this, but she was very happy in her heart.

"I think you're so happy." Tang Jingjing quipped.

"It's okay." Gu Xue'er smiled weakly.

"It's okay." Tang Jingjing followed Gu Xue'er's example and repeated.

"How's your two doing?" Gu Xue'er didn't care about Tang Jingjing's self-learning, and asked with concern.

"We're friends, really." Tang Jingjing said seriously.

"It's a pity." Gu Xue'er said with emotion.

"Nothing to be sorry for. Okay, I'm resting, I'm going to work tomorrow. Tang Jingjing finished speaking and went back to the bedroom.

"Good night." Gu Xue'er said.

"Good night."

Lying on the bed, Tang Jingjing thought. It is said that the IQ of a woman in love is zero, and I don't think the IQ of a man in love is not very good. Those vulgar methods are always scoffed at by sober people, but they can win the hearts of women. Isn't Gu Xueer a typical example?

If tonight's date is with someone you like, you should feel warm and romantic, right? ――

Alyssa came home and threw herself the bed. She wanted to cry, but found that she had no tears. She burst out laughing out loud, like a mad woman, terrifying.

Probably tired and tired, Alyssa lay asleep in bed, and there seemed to be a tear in the corner of her eye.

In a trance, she seemed to be back to the good old days of her childhood. A girl with pigtails, holding a straw puppy with a dog's tail in her hand, jumping in the grass in a pink flower dress, her mother looked at her lovingly. Everything looks so real and wonderful.

Suddenly there was a strong wind, lightning and thunder, the branches of the trees swaying, the sky was dark and terrifying, the clouds seemed to be pressed down, she shouted desperately, but she could not find her mother.

She ran alone in the pouring rain, unable to find her way forward. She stumbled into someone's chest, warm. When I looked up, it was the elegant middle-aged man, who was smiling at him.

But suddenly, his face changed to the shape of a monster, with long, sharp teeth, and he opened his bloody mouth to eat himself.

No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't break free. Seeing that the monster was about to eat her. She was so scared that no one came to save her, no one ......

"Don't." She shouted loudly and sat up abruptly, staring at her wide, unfocused, eyes.

It turned out to be a dream, and Alyssa wiped the sweat from her head and let out a long breath. The dream was so clearly imprinted in her mind that she couldn't sleep anymore.

Turning on the bedside lamp and pulling out a photo album, Alyssa gently stroked it and muttered, "God, since you gave me a good start, why not let it continue?" Mother, do you know how many times in the middle of the night when you dream back, your daughter can't sleep peacefully? ”

Alyssa gently wiped away her tears, and there seemed to be another resoluteness in her eyes.
