As the night deepened, the stars in the sky became clearer, the lights in the Forbidden City became brighter and brighter, and the flames of the candles on the table danced higher.
Time was infinitely stretched out in the waiting, and the throbbing and nervousness that Lu Jin had begun was gradually consumed, replaced by apprehension and uneasiness.
Lu Jinnian, who was dressed in a noble manner, looked noble and contemptible when he sat in such a romantic scene, but the expression on his face began to become a little heavy.
The assistant felt a trace of anxiety in his heart, constantly raised his wrist to look at the time, and at eight twenty, he finally couldn't help but speak, breaking this stagnant atmosphere: "Mr. Lu, do you want to make a call to Miss Qiao?" Maybe there's something wrong with her, delayed. ”
Lu Jinnian nodded slightly, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Qiao An's good number.
The sound of the call sounded in my ears over and over again, until the official words of the customer service lady came from inside: "I'm sorry, the phone you dialed is temporarily unanswered." ”
"What, Miss Qiao didn't answer the phone?" With the assistant's inquiry, he saw that Lu Jinnian's eyebrows and eyes had become a little cold, so he hurriedly changed his words: "Maybe Miss Qiao didn't hear it." ”
Lu Jinnian's lips pursed vigorously, dialed Qiao Anhao's phone again, repeated it I don't know how many times, and in the end, it was always a reply from the customer service lady.
The atmosphere on the terrace is becoming more and more oppressive.
With the flickering colorful lights, the assistant saw that Lu Jinnian's face had no expression, and even his heart was flushed with a pestle, standing aside, and he didn't dare to gasp to watch Lu Jinnian's continuous outward calls.
At nine o'clock, there was a sudden knock at the door of "Lijingxuan".
The assistant breathed a sigh of relief, and with a little surprise, he first said to Lu Jinnian, "Miss Qiao is here", and then shouted and replied: "Please come in." ”
As the door opened, Lu Jinnian suddenly stood up from his seat, staring straight at the inner room, but when he saw that only the manager of "Lijingxuan" came in alone, his hand subconsciously held the back of the chair.
"Mr. Lu, it's nine o'clock now, can you start making the Western food you want?" The manager asked politely.
Lu Jinnian lowered his eyes, turned his head, stared at the brilliant lights of the Forbidden City not far away, and did not say a word.
The assistant was afraid that the manager would ask about dinner again, so he touched Lu Jinnian's moldy head and hurriedly waved his hand at him.
The manager also seemed to sense that something was wrong, and bent over and exited the door.
As the manager closed the door, the assistant clearly felt that the atmosphere on the terrace at this time was more suffocating and depressing than before, and even he just glanced at Lu Jinnian, who was standing alone in the romantic and brilliant scene, in front of the huge dining table, and didn't dare to take a second look.
Lu Jinnian stared at the lights in the distance, and couldn't tell what he felt like in his heart.
From the moment he fell in love with Qiao Anhao, he waited for the day when he was worthy of loving her.
Later, he finally tried hard to love her, but he knew that she had a marriage contract with Xu Jiamu, and then he continued to wait, waiting for her and Xu Jiamu to end, and he could love her.
He has waited for so many years, and what he has waited for has become a habit, and he will not feel sad.
But tonight's wait made him taste the pain he has ever experienced.
