Chapter 4: Let's fall in love

"Xiao Ke, the work is going well, right?" Xia Yuqi asked with concern.

"It's okay, thank you for helping me find this job, I will continue to work hard." Li Xiaoke replied with a smile.

"Do you have time after work? I'm inviting you to eat Western food, and I've recently opened a new Western restaurant, how about you go there and try it? ”

β€œ'What? (What) Western Restaurant? That's where rich people go, I haven't eaten Western food when I'm so old, don't go, you just went to work not long ago, don't be so extravagant. ”

"Oh, it's okay, eating a Western meal can't be bad, I can still afford it, don't listen to others, I don't need a few dollars, I'll take you after work, right?" Xia Yuqi asked earnestly.

"That'...... Well, just this time, it's not an example, pull the hook! Li Xiaoke subconsciously stretched out his fingers.

"Okay, listen to you, just this once, pull hook." Xia Yuqi echoed.

Touching Xia Yuqi's hand, Li Xiaoke pulled Gougou like an electric shock, quickly withdrew his hand, lowered his head, his face was ruddy, and said in a low voice: "See you after work!" ”

Xia Yuqi had already seen Xiao Ke's shyness, and liked her more and more, smiled and said, "See you after work!" ”

Ren Pingping took the copywriter and was walking to his office, as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Li Xiaoke, he was a little unhappy, stopped his steps, and deliberately said to Xiao Ke in a loud voice with a little provocation: "Xia Yuqi and I are going to get engaged next month, do you want to come and drink our wedding wine?" My dad is the president of Jiangbei Pharmaceutical Factory, so you must have heard of it, right? ”

"Miss Ren, congratulations, but I really haven't heard anyone say it, I just came to the company not long ago, I am busy with work every day, I don't have time to listen to others say other things, if there is nothing I will leave, there are still a lot of things to do at work." Li Xiaoke smiled, bowed deeply, and walked away.

Ren Pingping took a deep breath and said to himself: "If you want to grab a boyfriend with me, you don't look in the mirror to see yourself, if you want a background without a background, if you want connections without connections, just rely on a face, hum!" I'm a hundred times better than you, we'll see! ”

"Xiao Ke, it's all off work, what are you busy with?" Xia Yuqi was a little anxious.

"Oh, why don't we go, what...... I...... I...... I'm not done with my work, and I have some files that need to be sorted out. Li Xiaoke slurred, his eyes dodging Yuqi. Because she met Ren Pingping today, when she heard that they were going to get engaged, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart, and asked herself again and again: "Do you like Xia Yuqi?" No, no, it's impossible, someone is married to a rich daughter, and I don't deserve him. ”

Xia Yuqi saw that Li Xiaoke seemed to have something unspeakable, and she didn't want to ask too much, so she excused herself and said: "Old classmate, I helped you find a job, should you thank me?" ”

"That's that, I have to thank you!" Xiao Ke said indebtedly.

"What a thank-you method? Is it so hard for me to let you have a meal with me? Xia Yuqi said deliberately.

"I'm ......, okay then, I'll go." Xiao Ke looked helpless.

Xia Yuqi's heart was overjoyed, and she said happily: "Then let's go quickly!" ”

In the western restaurant, the lighting is a little dim, and the melodious music brings an active atmosphere to the whole restaurant, which makes people feel warm and romantic! Li Xiaoke has never seen such a high-end restaurant, and he is a little overwhelmed.

"What are you two going to do?" The waiter came over with a smile on his face.

How could Li Xiaoke call the name of Western food, and hurriedly said: "Yuqi, you order, whatever, I can do anything." ”

Xia Yuqi smiled and said to the waiter, "Two medium-rare steaks, two cups of coffee, two burgers and pasta." ”

"Okay, you two wait, I'll be there soon." The waiter said with a smile.

"Can you eat a steak if it's undercooked?" Xiao Ke asked quietly.

"It's good to get used to eating, foreigners eat medium-rare, it's okay, it's delicious." Yu Qi patiently answered.

Soon, the waiter brought their order to the table, "Please use it slowly!" ”

"Thank you!" Yu Qi and Xiao Ke nodded to the waiter with a smile.

Xiao Ke picked up the knife and fork, why couldn't he cut off the steak and eat it in his mouth, and asked Yuqi in a low voice: "Do you have chopsticks?" Ask the waiter to bring chopsticks, I won't use a knife and fork. ”

Xia Yuqi laughed "poof", "Xiao Ke, there are no chopsticks in Western food, cut it slowly, come and I'll help you." Xia Yuqi held Xiao Ke's hand and taught her how to cut steak.

At this time, Li Xiaoke's face seemed to have a fever, his face was flushed, and his heart was pounding, feeling that he was very faceless, and he longed for a crack in the ground to get into. I have to be tutored for dinner, I'm really ashamed, but she didn't say anything, she felt that this man was really caring, and she felt warm in her heart. I feel like I like him a little, no, he is going to get engaged next month, just ordinary friends, she quickly dispelled this idea.

In fact, Yuqi has long fallen in love with Li Xiaoke, at the college graduation prom, he already liked her, and later helped her arrange work, and naturally brought her to his side, he took her to eat Western food, the first is pomp, and the second he knows that Li Xiaoke will definitely not use a knife and fork to eat Western food, so he taught her to use a knife and fork, so that he can get close to Xiao Ke. At this time, he felt that Xiao Ke's heart was beating wildly, and his heart was also beating violently, thinking, this is the power of love!

"Oh! By the way, I met Miss Ren today, I heard that you are going to get engaged next month, and your parents have already arranged it for you, congratulations! Li Xiaoke said as if nothing had happened.

The speaker didn't mean to listen to the listener, and Xia Yuqi realized why Li Xiaoke had dinner with him for half a day today.

"I don't know what love is, I only know that I love someone unilaterally, that's not called love, I see her as a sister, his father and my father have been business partners for many years, I don't want my father to arrange my life, since you asked, I also said it, I have someone I like in my heart, but I'm not sure if she also likes me." Xia Yuqi said with a look on her face.

"Oh! Well, who is so lucky? Hee-hee! Li Xiaoke pretended to ask calmly.

"What if it's you? How do you answer me? Yuqi wanted to strike while the iron was hot, so she hurriedly asked.

"Me? I don't dare to think about it...... "Xiao Ke has been in the dark for a long time, and I don't know what to say."

"Okay, let's think about it slowly, I didn't want to talk about it today, I liked you for a long time! It started with the college prom. I can't say anything about feelings, but I have an impulsive feeling for you, hehe! Yuqi said with a grin.

Xiao Ke was a little flattered, she heard it right, she also felt that she also liked Xia Yuqi, girls are too shy, how can they say it easily, she was secretly happy, and pretended to be serious and said: "Yes, you are so good, how can you like me?" Miss Ren has a strong family background, and she is better than me! ”

"I look at character, not family background, I like you, let's fall in love, right?" Yu Qi said in a consultative tone.

"I ...... I...... I haven't thought about it yet, so let's talk about it later! I've eaten too, let's go. ”

In the dimly lit night, Xia Yuqi sent Li Xiaoke to the door of the house, looked at the beautiful Li Xiaoke, a little reluctant, and thought: "I won't back down, I will definitely marry you in this life." ”

Li Xiaoke got out of the car, waved goodbye to Xia Yuqi, and turned around and walked in the direction of home.

Xia Yuqi honked the horn and signaled, "Goodbye!" So he drove away.

This is exactly what it is: unrequited love for a flower, no one says it's in vain.
