Nangong Chen washed his hands, wiped the water droplets with a tissue and walked back to Bai Muqing, he could feel that Bai Muqing was uncomfortable, so he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't like to eat Western food?" ”

"I just don't like to eat it so exaggeratedly." Bai Muqing said.

"Didn't that Lin Er Shao of yours bring you here?"

Bai Muqing didn't understand why he suddenly mentioned Lin Annan. She shook her head.

In fact, Lin Annan brought her here, and because it was the first time for her to show her foreign appearance, she also sprinkled red wine all over the table. And that time, although embarrassed, was also full of happiness. Because Lin Annan not only did not dislike her and was ashamed, but also smiled and explained to the waiter for her.

If it weren't for the failure last time, she wouldn't have developed a fear of this kind of place today.

She shook her head because she didn't want to be unhappy with Nangong Chen because of this kind of thing at this time.

"Since we don't like it, let's change it." Nangong Chen picked up her coat from the back of the chair and draped it over her.

Bai Muqing was forced to stand up from the chair, looked at him and said, "But isn't this place already set?" ”

"You can return if you have a reservation."

"Then where are we going to eat?" Bai Muqing followed his pace and walked towards the door of the private room.

"Go ......." Nangong Chen thought about it and turned his head to stare at her: "How about going to eat hot pot?" ”

"Huh?" Bai Muqing thought she had misheard.

He still wants to eat hot pot? It's not like what he would do.

She remembered that when Sister He explained Nangong Chen's illness to her, in addition to not drinking and smoking more, she couldn't eat too many of these high-calorie foods, and the hot pot was not only hot but also hot.

He has not touched hot pot since he was a child, in addition to the fact that his status is not suitable, which is the main reason.

"Don't want to go?" Nangong Chen thought for a while: "That's right, you only ate it yesterday." ”

"No, I'm thinking you shouldn't eat something that gets so hot." Bai Muqing said.

She's not afraid. Because her body has been very good since she was a child, she can eat cold and hot, and her ups and downs can't be difficult for her. And hot pot is everyone's favorite thing to eat, and she loves it even for three days.

"You can eat even a pregnant woman, why can't I?" Nangong Chen raised his eyebrows disappreciatively.

"I'm in better health than you, and ...... Aren't you afraid that grandma will beat you when she finds out? ”

"How old am I? Still afraid of grandma beating? Besides, ....... Nangong Chen glanced at her: "Didn't you hide it from her last night." I'll hide it from me. ”

Bai Muqing looked at him, and suddenly remembered the scene when he kissed her last night, and he said that he wanted to taste what hot pot tasted like. After living for nearly 30 years, he still doesn't know what hot pot tastes like, which is really sad to think about.

If he really wants to try it that much, then go with him once.

The elevator arrived, and the two stepped into the elevator together.

The western restaurant is on the eighth floor, and when the elevator passes through the seventh floor, a lot of people are crowded in at once, Bai Muqing is worried that he will be pushed down like the last time, and his body unconsciously squeezes to the corner of the elevator.

Immediately, her small body was pulled into the crook of her arm, she was stunned for a moment, turned her head and glanced at Nangong Chen. And he didn't feel anything, but looked like he was used to it.

When the elevator stopped on the first floor, Nangong Chen even used her other hand to protect her and walk out, obviously. He was more worried than she was about a repeat of what happened last time.

After the two returned to Nangong Chen's car together, Nangong Chen turned his head sideways and asked, "You have more experience in hot pot than me, where do you say to eat." ”

Bai Muqing thought for a while: "Why don't you go to the house we ate yesterday, there is a cool pot bottom, and it tastes very good." ”

There was a rare smile on her face.

Nangong Chen looked at her, she couldn't remember how long it had been since she had seen a smile on her face, since a high-end candlelight dinner was not as good as an ordinary hot pot?

Yesterday, Bai Muqing ate with Yao Mei and Yuan Gui, and the place was next to the Cultural Palace. Although the store is not high-end, the decoration is exquisite and distinctive, and it looks relatively hygienic.

Nangong Chen parked the car in the parking space at the entrance of the store, and as soon as Bai Muqing walked into the store, Shen Ke and Pu Lianyao arrived.

As soon as Shen Ke wanted to drive the car into the parking space, the sharp-eyed Pu Lianyao immediately patted his arm: "Wait a minute." ”

"What's wrong?" Shen parked the car on the side of the road.

Park Lianyao pointed to the black jazz at the door of the hot pot restaurant with her chin: "Isn't that my cousin's car?" ”

"yes, why is my cousin here?" Shen Ke looked at the black jazz with her, and looked surprised: "This is a hot pot restaurant." My cousin never eats it, it's weird. ”

"Why doesn't he eat hot pot?"

"The doctor said he couldn't eat anything high in calories." Shen Ke stretched his neck to look at the store and laughed: "It's okay, you can share a table with him for a meal." ”

"I guess my cousin would come to this kind of place. It must be with my cousin, right? Are you embarrassed to make a light bulb? ”

"What's so embarrassing about not making our light bulbs too?"

"No, I'm afraid of my cousin's cough, I don't feel comfortable eating a light bulb like him." Park Lianyao hugged his arm: "Shall we go to another house?" Let's eat it ourselves. ”

"Okay, whatever you want." Shen Ke smiled and touched the top of her hair with his hand: "You have pushed the time to eat hot pot to today according to me, and I dare not change to another one according to you?" ”

"I just like the way you look polite." Park Lian shook his little face towards his arm and smiled happily.

Shen Ke dotingly lowered his head and kissed the top of her hair, turned the car around and left the place.

******

Nangong Chen looked around the menu, and finally gave up the right to order to Bai Muqing, who didn't think much about it and ordered a set meal for two.

"What else do you need for a drink or beer?" The waiter asked politely.

"Just two glasses of juice." Nangong Chen said.

"It's still a glass of juice, a bottle of Wang Laoji." Bai Muqing corrected, and then added: "It's good to have another mutton pie." ”

"Okay, please wait." The waiter stepped back. Giant island intestines.

Soon, the waiter brought a glass of juice and Wang Laoji, Bai Muqing pushed Wang Laoji in front of Nangong Chen, and Nangong Chen immediately refused: "I don't like to drink this kind of thing." ”

"This is the best match for herbal tea and hot pot." Bai Muqing forcibly pushed the herbal tea to him: "It can play a role in reducing fire." ”

"Then why don't you drink it?"

"......" Bai Muqing was speechless, could she admit that she really didn't like the taste of this herbal tea?

However, Nangong Chen did not insist, and finally accepted the herbal tea.

Soon, the things that Bai Muqing had ordered were delivered one after another, and she pushed the mutton pie on the plate in front of Nangong Chen and said, "The mutton pie is a specialty here, it's delicious, you try it." ”

Nangong Chen looked at the average pie, sandwiched a small piece and put it in his mouth, the taste was indeed not inferior to those in those star-rated hotels.

"Is it delicious?" Bai Muqing asked expectantly.

"It's not bad, you eat it too." Nangong Chen nodded and put a piece into her plate.

Since knowing that Bai Muqing was pregnant, the two had never eaten together alone, and today was the first meal, and they ate quite smoothly.

Under the leadership of Nangong Chen's various novelties and ignorance, Bai Muqing forgot about hatred for a while, forgot the past and forgot the future, and devoted herself to tonight's food with him.

At the end, she stared at him curiously and asked, "Did you taste it?" What exactly does hot pot taste like? ”

Nangong Chen's hand that was wiping the corners of his mouth with a tissue stopped slightly: "It's better than I imagined." After speaking, he leaned over and looked at her: "What should I do?" What if I get addicted and come back every day? ”

"What do you say?" Bai Muqing was speechless.

"I think grandma is going to beat you to death."

Bai Muqing's hair stood up in an instant, she felt that she would too, if she was killed, it would be fine, as long as she didn't push her to the family law!

When the two finished settling the account and walked out of the hot pot restaurant together, Bai Muqing suddenly saw a poster of an art exhibition hanging at the entrance of the Cultural Palace next to it, which introduced that there were new paintings on display.

She looked up at Gong Chen, and just happened to meet Nangong Chen's gaze.

Nangong Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go, go in and have a look." ”

Bai Muqing looked at him again in surprise, what did he say? He wants to accompany her to the art exhibition?

As if sensing her surprise, Nangong Chen added: "I just happened to be a little full, so I thought it was digested." ”

Although this sounded like it was for his own sake, Bai Muqing nodded gratefully and walked with him towards the Cultural Palace.

In fact, she can come to visit by herself tomorrow, but she did eat a little bit just now, and if she gets on the bus now, she will definitely be very uncomfortable, and the art exhibition is in front of her, so it's really good to go up and have a look.

The paintings in the exhibition really changed again, and Nangong Chen was not very interested in the paintings, so he looked at them at a glance. On the contrary, Bai Muqing watched it very seriously, and when Nangong Chen finished reading it all, she was still in front of the first series in the main hall.

"Is a short, frustrated, half-old man who looks like a ball really appealing to you that much?" Nangong Chen said coldly, and when he came out, he saw Bai Muqing staring intently at a man's painting, he was a little unhappy, and then followed her for a long time and didn't see any attraction in this painting.

"You know, this female painter named Lireela loves to paint her husband the most in her life, and she has been painting since she was young, you look at this one." Bai Muqing took a few steps forward and pointed to the first one in the series: "Look, this was painted when they first got married, and it has been more than 20 years now. ”

Indeed, the man in the painting is the same person as the one just now, much younger than the one just now, without the head shape of the Mediterranean, nor the belly of Zhu Bajie.

Bai Muqing patiently commented: "She loves her husband very much, you look at the lines, the colors, every stroke is permeated with strong love, and it is ......." ”

"Still not handsome." After a while, Nangong Chen spit out such a sentence.

Bai Muqing was speechless for an instant, and glanced at him speechlessly, sure enough, it was like a mountain across the line, and the focus was completely different!

"What? What did I say wrong? Nangong Chen showed an innocent face.

Bai Muqing glanced at him and said angrily: "You are handsome, but the question is can you have the patience to sit there for a few hours and let others draw?" ”

"Just try it." Nangong Chen said.

Principle is impossible, though...... Listening to what she had just described the couple as so great and romantic, so legendary, if it was her who wrote it, he could try it.

"Really?" Bai Muqing didn't believe that he would have such patience.

"Of course, but I'm worried that if you hang me up here, the exhibition hall will be overcrowded."

"Don't worry, your wife doesn't have the fame of Renelella, so she can't go to the exhibition hall." But then again, if you can really make it to the hall, you may really be crowded.

Nangong Chen was originally a very mysterious man, and the whole city was full of curiosity about him, if he hung his oil painting up, it would definitely attract a large number of fans.

And if ...... If you put his paintings up for auction, you'll be able to make a lot of money.

Cough...... What was she thinking? How could he think of such an unrealistic thing, if he really auctioned his paintings to make money, he would probably be strangled to death.

"Have you seen enough? There's something better looking than this one inside. Nangong Chen reminded not very happily.

Bai Muqing came back to her senses, nodded her head and walked inside.

Bai Muqing was a little fascinated, and when she finally finished admiring the paintings inside, she found that Nangong Chen was sitting bored on the sofa in the lounge.

She paused and was a little embarrassed: "Let's go, let's go back." ”

"Done?" Nangong Chen stood up from the sofa, raised his wrist and glanced at the time on the dial.

"Hmm." Bai Muqing nodded, and if she didn't leave, she would be closed.

It was really ashamed and surprised that he had waited for him for so long, because he didn't expect him to have the patience to wait.

******

When the two of them returned home together, the old lady got up from the sofa and was about to go back to bed. When I saw them come in, I casually asked, "What kind of dinner are you eating out until so late?" ”

Bai Muqing and Nangong Chen glanced at each other and did not squeak. Of course, she couldn't tell the old lady about the two of them going to eat hot pot.

Nangong Chen didn't intend to tell the truth, so he said casually: "Eat casually." ”

"How can you eat as much as you want?" The old lady habitually taught: "I have told you many times, you are different from others, you can't eat outside things casually, even if you want to eat, you have to eat in a better hotel." ”

"Grandma, I know." Nangong Chen's ears were calloused when he heard this, and then said, "Grandma, hurry back to your room to rest, we are going to go to sleep too." ”

"Okay, remember to drink the medicine in a while." The old lady did not forget to tell him this before going to bed.

The two went up to the second floor together and went back to their rooms.

Bai Muqing took a bath, and when she was about to sleep, there was a sudden knock at the door, she answered, and Xiao Lu pushed the door with a medicine bowl and walked in.

"Young lady, is the eldest young master here with you? I kept knocking on the door but didn't answer. Midori asked, glancing around.

Bai Muqing glanced at Nangong Chen's door and said, "He may be taking a bath, you put the medicine here first, and I'll take it to him later." ”

"Then it's troublesome for the young lady." Midori said gratefully.

After Xiao Lu left, Bai Muqing waited for a while before walking to the door of Nangong Chen's bedroom opposite with the medicine bowl, she raised her hand and knocked on the door panel, and after getting no response, she raised her voice and called: "Young Master, are you inside?" ”

After a while, the door opened, and Nangong Chen, who had already taken a bath, glanced at her, and glanced at her speechlessly after seeing the medicine bowl in her hand. If he had known that she was here to deliver medicine, he should have continued to pretend that he couldn't hear.

Bai Muqing could already see his intention from his expression, walked past him with a medicine bowl and walked into the room, then put the pill on the bedside table and turned back to him and said, "Let's drink the medicine first." ”

Nangong Gong followed in leisurely: "Let's put it there first, I'll drink it later." ”

Wait for him to drink consciously? It's basically impossible.

Bai Muqing stood beside the bed and didn't move, Nangong Chen knew what she meant, but deliberately teased: "You want to sleep in my room?" Please, as long as you don't worry that I can't control myself. ”

Of course, Bai Muqing was worried, so not only would she not sleep in his room, but she also tried not to let him enter her room, after all, she was pregnant, and this kind of thing could be avoided.

"Drink the medicine, I'll take out the bowl by the way." She said.

Nangong Chen saw that she was insistent, so she had no choice but to walk over and pick up the medicine on the table, raise her head and drink it. Then he stretched the bowl in front of her, with a hint of anger, like a child.

Bai Muqing handed the boiled water in her hand to him, but Nangong Chen did not take the cup in her hand, but pinched her chin with one hand and raised her little face high, and then kissed her lips.

The bitter taste instantly filled her mouth, which was an indescribable bitterness!

She knew that he was deliberately taking revenge on her, but fortunately, her ability to bear it was quite strong, and this bit of suffering could not scare her. Instead, she turned from passive to active and kissed him on the lips and said, "If grandma blames it, it must be my responsibility again, so please be more conscious in the future, right...... Seriously, it's nothing to me. ”

"If you really can't stand the hardship, then you can help me drink it well." He said.

"Yes, you can help me get pregnant."

"It's a pity I don't have that skill." Nangong Chen said that he was going to kiss her again, but Bai Muqing tilted his little face to the side, avoiding him and said, "The eldest young master, rest early." ”

With that, she took the medicine bowl and turned around and walked to the bedroom door.

Nangong Chen didn't force her, after all, she was not in good health now, and he was afraid that he would be impulsive if she slept together.

******

At night, Bai Muqing had a dream.

She dreamed that she and Nangong Chen were happily eating hot pot together, and when she was halfway through eating, her grandmother suddenly appeared, and her grandmother slapped her in the face, and then pointed to Nangong Chen opposite her and cried: "He killed me, you actually eat with him, talk and laugh together, why are you so unfilial?" So ignorant? ”

Bai Muqing was stupefied and stepped back step by step. But her grandmother stepped forward step by step, gritting her teeth and threatening her: "If you eat with the enemy in the future, she will cut off relations with her!" ”

Bai Muqing cried, crying and pulling the corner of her grandmother's clothes to promise him that she would never be like this again in the future, and she would never get so close to Nangong Chen again.

Grandma cruelly stuffed her with a knife, waved her arm, and pointed at Nangong Chen: "Then kill him immediately to avenge me!" ”

Bai Muqing held a cold knife in her hand, her heart was so anxious that her head shook like a rattle: "No, grandma, I can't do it!" I can't......! ”

"I can't do it!"

"If you can't do it, you have to do it, it's your responsibility!" Grandma pressed her step by step, her eyes were cold and stern, and she threatened: "If you don't kill him, then kill me, you must choose one!" ”

After saying that, my grandmother grabbed the wrist of the knife with one hand and stabbed her in the heart.

In a hurry, Bai Muqing cried and turned the knife in a different direction and stabbed Nangong Chen on the side, the sharp knife sank into Nangong Chen's heart, and Nangong Chen's chest instantly gushed blood.

"Don't!" Bai Muqing screamed and sat up from the bed.

The darkness of the room told her that it was a dream, that she had a nightmare!

She swallowed hard and pinched her arm with her hand, but luckily, it was just a dream!

She raised her hand to turn on the light button, got up and walked to the water dispenser, poured a glass of warm water, took a sip, and then walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and lifted the curtain.

The wind of the night was blowing, and the cold swishing made her shiver unconsciously.

She just had a meal with Nangong Chen and watched an art exhibition, and she actually had such a nightmare. Why is this happening? Could it be that Grandma is really blaming her?

She knew that her grandmother would not agree to her going too close to Nangong Chen? shouldn't eat and go shopping with him, pregnant with his flesh and blood, she is already very unfilial.

Thinking of the dream just now, she still has a chill down her spine, and her grandmother not only forbade her to be close to Nangong Chen, but also asked her to kill him on the spot.

Kill him...... How could she possibly do it!

Bai Muqing took a deep breath, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and drank two glasses of boiled water in a row, only to calm down her mood a little, and only then did she feel that something seemed to be wrong outside, as if there were footsteps, and the old lady's anxious shouts.

She walked to the door suspiciously, and the movement outside became clearer.

With a bad premonition in her heart, she quickly opened the door, only to find that Nangong Chen's bedroom opposite was noisy. Obviously, Nangong Chen was sick.

Due to Nangong Chen's fear of light, only a dim wall lamp was turned on in the bedroom, and Nangong Chen on the bed turned pale, motionless and let Dr. Huang give him a needle.

The old lady on the side was so anxious that tears rained down under the support of Sister He, and even Pu Lianyao and Shen Ke and Shen Xin were attracted over.

Although the door of Nangong's house has a strong sound insulation effect, Bai Muqing felt that she really shouldn't be woken up without being woken up by such a big movement. She stood barefoot outside the crowd and looked at Nangong Chen on the hospital bed with a blank expression.

Just now she dreamed that she had stabbed him in the heart, and he was sick, is this the legendary heart with a soul?

After Dr. Huang tied the drip, he turned around and said to the old lady, "Okay, old lady, the eldest young master will wake up at dawn, you can rest assured." ”
