The employees were very excited, but Yu'er was obviously absent-minded in the afternoon and looked at the time several times.

Finally, it was time to get off work. She had no intention of going home and just put on a business suit.

The waistband of her suit pants made her waist look extremely thin. She wore a long woolen coat on the outside and changed into sneakers in the car.

I drove to the Garden Restaurant near the city center according to the location on my phone.

Despite the cold weather, the city center is bustling with people, and there are many young couples out having fun.

Yuer parked the car in the exclusive underground parking space of the Garden Restaurant, and a waiter was already waiting there.

To show courtesy, she arrived about ten minutes earlier than the agreed time.

Unexpectedly, the man arrived early.

It was her first blind date and she was a little overwhelmed.

Pursing their lips, they followed the waiter in front of them to a separate private room and stopped.

Yu'er withdrew her casual gaze from looking at the green plants and flowers on both sides. After a period of adjustment, her mentality was obviously relaxed.

As the door opened, she looked inside.

The next second, the indifferent expression turned into surprise.

"Professor Shen?"

The tone was somewhat uncertain.

The private room might be a little hot, or the wait might be too long, so Shen Zhixu took off his coat and casually put it on the back of the chair behind him.

He wore a black turtleneck sweater, which made him look tall and slender and refined.

Seeing someone coming, he slowly stood up.

Compared to Yu'er who was surprised and unbelieving, the man felt a sense of security that he was in control of the situation.

"Why, Miss Zhou, are you surprised to see me?"

As he spoke, the gentleman pulled out the chair opposite him, then signaled with his eyes that Yu'er, who was standing motionless by the door, should come in and take a seat.

Yu'er looked at the rather relaxed Shen Zhixu with a complicated expression, then at the chair he had pulled out.

She pursed her lips and tightened her grip on the bag in her hand.

After hesitating for two seconds, Yu'er released the strength in his hands and walked in slowly.

He sat down in silence.

As if seeing her reservedness, Shen Zhixu slowly raised his hand to pour a cup of tea and handed it to her.

He looked directly into Yuer's eyes with a smile, and tried to break the deadlock with a teasing tone.

"Why, is it that in Miss Zhou's eyes, I, Shen Zhixu, am so bad that she won't even give me a meal?"

Faced with the teasing, Yu'er, who had just taken the cup, didn't even bother to drink the tea in her hand and put it on the table.

Finally freeing his hands, he shook them back and forth in front of his chest.

"How could that be? Although I've never been on a blind date, with Professor Shen's qualifications, I think he should be one of the best in the blind date circle."

After hearing the compliment, Shen Zhixu smiled, as if he enjoyed it very much.

Yu'er's slightly anxious heart finally calmed down.

She listened to the man speak slowly again.

"So, Miss Zhou's intention is to honor me with a meal. My understanding should be correct, right?"

It is so embarrassing to meet an acquaintance on a blind date.

Yu'er, digging her toes into the ground in embarrassment, forced a forced smile.

"Of course, of course."

After hearing this, the man sitting opposite was obviously very satisfied.

He gestured to the waiter in the room.

The waiter shuddered when he saw the look in his eyes.

She was so excited the previous second that she was still sighing in her heart that such a beautiful woman had to go out on a blind date. It was such a waste of talent.

The next second, he hurriedly took out the menu in his hand.

One was given to the beautiful lady, and the other was given to a male customer who seemed gentle but was actually very distant.

I heard he is a professor.

Yu'er looked at the menu with gritted teeth. The dishes in the Garden Restaurant were mainly local dishes from Jincheng.

They have their own vegetable base, producing and supplying fresh vegetables and fruits.

Yuer has difficulty making decisions. She is not sure which dishes are delicious or whether they suit her taste.

So she tapped the menu several times with her fingers, and subconsciously looked up, just in time to meet someone's eyes that had been staring for who knows how long.

Seeing the hesitation in her eyes, Shen Zhixu felt inexplicably funny for some reason.

The corners of his mouth curled up, looking quite relaxed. The next second, he pointed at the menu in his hand in front of Yu'er.

Shen Zhixu: "What's there to not eat? Eat onions, ginger, and garlic."

Yuer nodded.

"Food."

Shen Zhixu: "Can you eat spicy food?"

Yuer hesitated and thought about it.

"It seems unlikely."

She glanced at the cold, pale-skinned man opposite her and added carefully.

“The spicy taste of home cooking is acceptable.”

The man nodded and asked again.

"Do you eat vegetables with special flavors like celery, onions, and carrots?"

Yuer nodded and shook her head.

"You can eat celery and onions, but not carrots."

The speed at which the pen tip traced the menu slowed down, and the man laughed in his heart, thinking that Yu'er opposite him was still a picky little girl.

In no time, Shen Zhixu ordered the dishes.

The waiter took the menu and went out, closing the door behind him.

There were only two people in the room, and they fell into silence for a while because they had nothing to say.

Yu'er was really embarrassed and didn't know what to do.

After all, she could not forget that the purpose of this trip was a blind date.

Go on a blind date with Shen Zhixu, whom I met only once.

In order to avoid the embarrassment, she picked up the cup on the table and sipped the tea in small sips.

Sitting opposite each other, Shen Zhixu naturally saw that the little girl was at a loss.

I saw her sitting obediently on the chair, drinking water like a chick pecking at rice.

I felt an inexplicable itch in my heart, and I pressed my palate to relieve it.

Shen Zhixu wanted to broaden the topic, so he spoke.

"Don't you have any questions? I've never been on a blind date, but~ you know what I mean!"

He spread his hands, with an inexplicable sense of humor.
