Chapter Forty-Nine: Invite a Friend to Dinner
Until the phone was hung up, Anxi was still a little overwhelmed, and even a little doubtful that it was Lin Mu who was calling just now.
Because in the past, every time Anxi was late, Lin Mu would at least perform a Hedong lion roar for her on the phone.
So after a long time, if Lin Mu didn't yell at her, she wouldn't feel used to it, just like now.
She even wondered if she had masochism? First Si Nian, now Lin Mu, as long as they are gentle with her, she feels unreal.
"What's wrong?"
Si Nian looked at Anxi who was in a daze again, and felt a little like laughing, why does this girl like to be in a daze so much?
"Uh, it's okay, let's get off! Mu Mu and they have arrived, let's hurry in! ”
Anxi grimaced at Si Nian embarrassedly, so she went straight down without looking at Si Nian's reaction.
Si Nian smiled and followed.
On the other side, after Lin Mu hung up, he felt extremely nervous, "Quietly, they will be there soon." Did you hear what I just said? Did I just speak fiercely? ”
If An Xi knew that Lin Mu was gentle with her for a moment, she was just afraid of leaving a fierce impression in front of Si Nian, I am afraid that she would have vomited blood a long time ago.
"No, no. You don't have to be so nervous, okay? Is Mr. Si so scary? I've never seen you so nervous in front of other teachers! Besides, it's not like we haven't eaten together, when did you become so timid? ”
In fact, Chen Jing also wanted to say that she was nervous because of her influence.
"It's not that I'm cowardly, it's just that Teacher Si's aura is too strong, and we mortals are too small in front of him, and now I want to escape."
Because there were at least other people there in the first two times, Lin Mu would not be so nervous, but now there were only four of them, and Si Nian's face was not good on those two occasions, so Lin Mu was even more nervous.
"Mu Mu, who confidently said that he wanted to test Teacher Si well, why did he start stage fright before he got on the field now! That's not your style! ”
After Chen Jing's reminder, Lin Mu thought of today's 'heavy responsibility', and Lin Mu felt even more pressured, but thinking of his friend's happiness in the future, Lin Mu took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, for Xiaoxi, fight." ”
Looking at Lin Mu's death-like appearance, Chen Jing smiled and comforted softly, "Okay, don't be nervous, isn't there still me!" ”
Said so, but when the door was opened, the waiter came in with Si Nian and Anxi. Almost the moment they saw Si Nian, Lin Mu and Chen Jing reflexively 'rubbed' and stood up from their seats.
The two of them were like elementary school students in class, and as soon as the teacher came in, they immediately stood up and said, "Hello teacher."
Their movement startled the waiter who was walking in front.
"Hehe, Mu Mu, quietly, you don't have to be so nervous. Ace, let's go in and sit! ”
And Anxi was amused by her friend's reaction, and instantly felt that her image was taller, compared to her, she was much calmer in front of Si Nian.
It wasn't until Si Nian sat down that Lin Mu and Chen Jing dared to sit down. But after the two sat down, they were still nervous and didn't know where to put their hands and feet.
Xu saw the nervousness of the two friends, and Anxi joked with a smile in order to ease their nervousness.
"Mu Mu, Jingjing, you two want to make Asi bleed heavily, the four of us, pick such a big box. Ace, you have to be careful! ”
Unexpectedly, Anxi's joke not only did not relieve their tension, but made them even more overwhelmed. Because that's what they originally thought, they deliberately chose the most expensive box here. Unexpectedly, he was told by Anxi all of a sudden, which made the two of them very embarrassed, and they didn't dare to look up at Si Nian.
Anxi was instantly embarrassed when she saw their embarrassment, it wouldn't be such a coincidence, she just happened to be right by her.
Anxi didn't know what to say now, and was thinking about how to change the topic and alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere, so Si Nian took the topic.
"I'm not afraid of this, even if it's a bully meal in Huohua's place, it's okay."
Si Nian said, then took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Lin Mu and Chen Jing, "So, the two of you can order with confidence." ”
Although they had such an idea originally, but now that Si Nian really asked them to order, they were embarrassed to pick it up, so they excused themselves, "Teacher Si, it's better for you to order!" ”
Anxi looked at Si Nian, and then at his friend, without waiting for Si Nian to answer, he took the menu from Si Nian's hand, "Haha, let's have some of it, I guarantee that Bao Jun is satisfied"
Anxi said this, and Si Nian had no objections. While Anxi was ordering, Si Nian was below to help her clean the dishes.
Anxi didn't pay attention to this small action, but was seen by Lin Mu and the others. The two looked at their friends who were still focusing on ordering, and instantly felt that their worries seemed to be unnecessary.
Where would Anxi think about the mental activities of the two friends at the moment, she was just thinking about what her friends liked to eat, what Si Nian liked to eat, thinking about it like this, and before she knew it, she had already ordered a lot.
"Am I ordering too much?" Anxi took a look at the menu, and he had already ordered 10 dishes.
"It's okay, not much!" After Si Nian returned the order menu to the waiter, he continued, "Add another sweet soup, and then take a few bottles of fruit" Speaking of this, Si Nian thought for a while, and then asked Lin Mu and them.
"Wait a minute, I still have to drive, I can't drink, do you want to drink red wine?"
"No, no, just juice."
Although they usually drink a little, but in front of the teacher, it is better not to drink, Lin Mu thought so, so he waved his hand and refused.
"Well, then grab a few bottles of juice, so be it!"
As soon as the waiter left, the food was not served, and the atmosphere in the room fell into embarrassment.
"Lin Mu, Chen Jing, right? You don't have to be so nervous. I'm not much older than you, and this English teacher is also temporary, so you don't have to treat me as a teacher after class. ”
"You have always been a teacher, and the teacher's call, I feel that you call me old."
Speaking of the back, Si Nian said it in a joking tone, not at all as serious as it usually looks. He saw Lin Mu's nervousness, so he deliberately softened his tone and narrowed the distance with them.
Now he still vaguely remembers the time when Anxi was sick, they were obviously afraid of him, but they still said those words. Coupled with the fact that Anxi often talked about them in front of him, he knew that they were very good friends.
Because they are her friends, there are a lot of meetings like today, and he must take the initiative to ease the atmosphere so that they don't get so nervous every time they see him.
"That's right, Mu Mu, quietly, you don't have to be nervous, you can call him Asa like me."
If it was normal Si Nian would not have done this, knowing that he was to relieve the embarrassment of his friend, Anxi was extremely grateful for his thoughtfulness, so he echoed on the side.
"Uh, got it, old ...... Brother Si, let's call you Brother Si just like Brother Ye and them. ”
What An Xi could see, how could Lin Mu and Chen Jing not see it. Knowing that Si Nian was deliberately closing the distance with them, they didn't realize that Si Nian was so unattainable, and the tension in their hearts was much less.
But let them call him As, they don't have the courage to call him that.
"Yes, you can." Si Nian deliberately paused, and then continued, "As long as it's not Teacher Si."
"Haha" Hearing Si Nian say this, Lin Mu and Chen Jing couldn't help laughing.
Seeing him joking with his friend, no longer smiling as before, and his friend no longer as nervous as just now, Anxi felt full at the moment.
For her, it is the happiest thing for her best friend to talk with the person she loves the most.
During the conversation, the meal was gradually served.
"Okay, the food is here, let's eat it quickly, I'm dying of hunger."
As soon as he saw the food and smelled the vegetables, the little gluttonous worm in Anxi's stomach was hooked out.
"As long as you're greedy, be careful that you can't walk when you eat, Brother Si doesn't want you." Seeing An Xi's big meal regardless of his image, because he didn't have the previous nervousness, Lin Mu couldn't help but quip.
"Hehe, don't be afraid, Miss Ben can't get fat. Also, even if I'm too fat to walk, Ace won't dislike me. Right, As? ”
Anxi said, raising his head and looking at Si Nian with great confidence.
"Well, eat more." Seeing Anxi's smug look, Si Nian smiled and put the freshly peeled shrimp into her plate. Seeing this, Anxi also put his favorite dishes in his bowl for him.
"Dog abuse!" Lin Mu and Chen Jing glanced at each other and sighed.
But after a while, Lin Mu then shook his head and said with a sad face, "Jingjing, you don't belong to the ranks of single dogs, you still have your Hao, so this sentence can only be said by me, a single dog, abusing dogs!" ”
"Mu Mu, why are you keen on the ranks of 'dogs'!" Seeing that Lin Mu was about to get angry, Chen Jing hurriedly transferred the flames of war.
"Brother Si, you also heard it, there are so many young talents around you, and the fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, introduce one to our family Mu Mu, and let her hurry up and ask the single dog ranks. I think Brother Mu is very good, right, Xiaoxi? ”
"Yes, yes, yes, As, I also feel that Brother Mu is very good, and we Mu Mu are a good match, you can help pull the strings another day!" Anxi also coaxed on the side, glaring at Si Nian.
She could see it clearly, if she mentioned Mu Xuan in the past, Lin Mu would definitely be angry. But when she mentioned him today, she was rarely ashamed. This is enough to show that between the two of them, there is definitely something boring.
"Well, I'll go back and ask Xuan." After receiving An Xi's message, Si Nian was naturally very cooperative, and looking at his appearance, it seemed that he was really ready to go back and discuss it with Mu Xuan.
"Brother Si, even you make fun of me. Hmph, ignore you! ”
Lin Mu looked at Si Nian's thoughtful appearance, and he didn't know whether what he said was true or false, and his friend's inquiring eyes. I had no choice but to bow my head to eat to hide the panic in my heart at this time.
