Chen Xijie sat alone at the dining table, constantly looking at his watch, feeling a little apprehensive, the first time time time felt that time passed so slowly, probably today was more special.

This is the first time since they graduated that he officially asked Shen Xia to come out to meet alone, the last time they got together was the first class reunion after work, there were more people present at that time, and there was not much time for them to chat, just glanced at each other a few times, most of them were with their classmates, and it was not good to meet alone. The place where he works is very close to Shen Xia, just a few streets away, and he has wandered at the door of Shen Xia's company many times, but he has never entered, just watching her and Xie Yangyang walk together from a distance, talking and laughing, maybe there is still some distance between them. Although they have also chatted with each other in text messages before, and occasionally make a phone call to say hello, Shen Xia has always been lukewarm, fortunately he has been with her classmates for so long, and he also understands that her character has always been like this, otherwise he would definitely think that she looks down on him, even so, before coming here, he had secretly made up his mind that he would hold her hand no matter what today, he couldn't wait any longer, he wouldn't forget that there was also a Lin Kaifeng by her side, he seemed to have appeared by her side more times than him, he couldn't let him kidnap Shen Xia.

Shen Xia stood at the door of the restaurant and looked up, this is a French restaurant, the name is "Kiss You". At first glance, I knew that it was a place where couples haunted, and the surrounding atmosphere was very romantic, which made her a little intoxicated, even if she was not a delicate and elegant girl, she also liked this kind of mood, and thought to herself, worthy of being an old classmate for many years, he still knew her. Involuntarily opened the door and entered the store, and the song "Entre nous" came from her, she was not a sensational person, but she had a soft spot for this song. I don't know if she and Chen Xijie are a couple yet, probably yes, they have been classmates together for seven years, and they still have some tacit understanding with each other, and she acquiesced to him in her heart, because in addition to the third brother, he was the first boy she took the initiative to care about, and today he asked her to come here, she didn't bring Yangyang, she just wanted to get along with him alone, and wanted to try the taste of dating.

Shen Xia attracted Chen Xijie from the moment she entered the store, at this time she had just gotten off work, and she was still wearing a work suit and stepping on high heels, a white shirt with a small black blazer, her hair was coiled up, and her facial features were clearly visible, so she had taken off the childishness of the campus, and looked refreshed and capable, which was a side he had never seen.

"Hey, Natsu, you're here."

"Yes, I'm here."

In just a few words, simple greetings, Chen Xijie stood up and pulled a chair for her, ordered a cup of coffee for her, between them is like water, like a lake, plain but precious, they have known each other for seven years, they are familiar with each other, they have never been vigorous, and they have never been separated and combined, this is the first time they have been so close to date, he thinks it's not that he doesn't love, it's just that the time has not come, and now it's a matter of course, everything is just right.

"How do you feel about this store?"

"It's good."

"I know you're going to love it." Because he knows her too well.

"Really? I really like it. Her words are always simple and cloudy, without extra embellishment, and she tasted a sip of coffee, which tasted good, "The coffee is also very good, thank you." ”

"If you like it."

On this day, they chatted for a long time, the world was north, and the parents were short, which made Chen Xijie a little happy, although most of them were asking her to answer, but he had known her for seven years, and the two of them had not said as much as they have today. For the first time, I found that there were actually many similarities with Xiao Xia, and they didn't leave until the store closed.

"Time flies so fast, I didn't expect it to be so late, I'll send you back." Chen Xijie and Xiao Xia walked side by side, without words and full of joy, this moment reminded him of all kinds of things on campus, at that time they were all young and young, he always thought that Shen Xia was the only one by his side, when Lin Kaifeng appeared, he had a sense of crisis, even if Xiao Xia didn't say much, she still attracted others, he believed that there would be more Lin Kaifeng in the future, at that time he also thought that he was still in school for a long time, and there were more opportunities to open his mouth to her, but unconsciously, they had left the campus and longed for society, He never thought that time would pass so quickly, and many words were not spoken, and he faced graduation, and fortunately, they could still work in the same city after graduation.

"Okay."

"Then Xiao Xia, can I hold your hand?" After thinking about the lines of confession countless times, Chen Xijie finally asked simply, because Xiao Xia is also a simple person, maybe his confession is complicated, but she is not white, when he said this, he has been suppressing uneasy emotions in his heart, he is worried that Xiao Xia's feelings for him are not enough, he is worried that Xiao Xia's balance is biased in favor of others, but he still mustered up the courage, this time he did not allow himself to back down.

Shen Xia stopped and thought for a while, the reason why she came to his appointment was because she felt that Chen Xijie was a good person, they had gone through seven years between them, they were familiar with each other, she was cold and indifferent, he also accepted it, he also knew all her next plans, and he seemed to give her enough space, she was not a hypocritical person, she felt that it was good, so she replied:

"Okay."

A simple answer made Chen Xijie's heart surge, how long did he wait for this day, holding the hand of the beautiful woman, holding the hand of the woman in his heart, he was even extremely nervous, he could hear his heartbeat accelerating, wiped the sweat of his palms on his body a few times, it still didn't feel right, and after wiping it a few more times, he dared to carefully buckle Xiao Xia's fingers, feel the temperature from her fingers, and lead her to walk forward slowly, the night breeze blew, blowing the hair of his lover, in this life, he just wanted to hold her hand.
