Why did Ji Yuanhang want to treat her to a meal?

Is there anything wrong?

"Yes, I'll treat you to dinner."

Zhao Jiaojiao pretended to be surprised and asked, "Is there any good news?"

If there is no happy event, why would you suddenly invite us to dinner?

"Are you free?" Ji Yuanhang didn't say what he wanted to do, but kept asking the person who had asked him to treat him to a meal a long time ago.

Zhao Jiaojiao hesitated, "When I'm free."

Should I tell Ling Yunrui that I’m going to have dinner with him? Will he be jealous?

"What's wrong? Is the publication going wrong?"

It hasn't even reached the publication stage yet.

Still editing.

"I have to go out at noon tomorrow. You don't have to bring me food and medicine. I will come to your house in the afternoon and drink two bowls of medicine then."

Going out for a while?

"Going out with your professor?" The publishing house?

"I'm going alone."

Ling Yunrui wanted to go with Zhao Jiaojiao. He was a little worried about her going out alone, but he was also afraid that she would think he was monitoring her.

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

Zhao Jiaojiao thought for a moment and said, "Kelp and pig's trotter soup."

"Do you have any vegetables at home? It's very cold here in the winter, so store some radishes, cabbages, and potatoes."

Otherwise, there would be no fresh vegetables in winter and we would only have pickles to eat.

"I know. I bought a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes. We'll roast them when the time comes."

Zhao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up. When she was at home, she would stuff two sweet potatoes in the stove while cooking. By the time she had dinner, the sweet potatoes would be baked.

"How do you know I like baked sweet potatoes?"

Ling Yunrui gently stroked her hair and said, "I've been paying attention to you for a long time. How could I not know what you like to eat?"

Been paying attention for a long time?

How long?

This made Zhao Jiaojiao more and more suspicious. She didn't just travel through time in a book. She might even have traveled through time in the womb, meaning she was transported here before she was born.

"But we need to ask Huijie and the others to prepare some thicker clothes. Kyoto's winter is really cold. They need gloves, hats, scarves, and even masks. They also need to wear snow boots, cotton pants, cotton coats, and sweaters. The only thing missing is a blanket. There's actually a classmate at school who came to study wrapped in a blanket because it was so cold."

The next day, Zhao Jiaojiao ate the breakfast and medicine brought by Ling Yunrui, and made an appointment with Ji Yuanhang to meet at the library. After arriving at the library, she found a corner to read to pass the time.

“Jiaojiao…”

Zhao Jiaojiao and Shangshu looked at Ji Yuanhang and asked, "Are we the only two?"

She also speculated that Ji Yuanhang might have a girl he liked and invited her to dinner with his girlfriend.

"Yes, just the two of us."

Zhao Jiaojiao is rather slow in emotions.

"Earned money?"

If she can make money by translating, then the male protagonist Ji Yuanhang can also make money by other means.

"I guess so! An article I wrote before was selected."

No wonder, I should treat her to a meal.

Zhao Jiaojiao did not introduce the restaurant. She and Ji Yuanhang were admitted to Tsinghua University together. She knew some shops, so Ji Yuanhang must also know some restaurants.

"There are two of us, so three dishes are enough. Don't break the bank."

Ji Yuanhang should have some good roommates, but since he made money, why did he only invite her?

"After dinner, shall we go to the movies later?"

See a movie?

Why is there something wrong with this?

"Not if you're going to the movies." Going to the movies with a gay man always felt a bit ambiguous. She and Ji Yuanhang were just friends, and they weren't at the stage where they could go to the cinema alone to watch a movie.

"Why? You forgot, I told you I'd take you to the movies, but the duck factory was too busy at the time, and you had to study, so you never had the time."
