Chapter 201 Men also need to be coaxed
Ye Xiaomei slowly raised her head and looked at Ma Qijun. He was looking at her seriously. At that moment, Ye Xiaomei felt that she was doomed.
She lowered her head, slowly opened the door and got out of the car, then walked up to the man with her head lowered:
"I went to the Military General Hospital and forgot my phone in the dormitory."
Ma Qijun looked away helplessly, took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He had been trying to make calls all afternoon but couldn't get through. He almost thought that something had happened to this little devil.
He had seen all kinds of scenes when fighting in the sea of blood and swords, but for the first time in all these years, he felt a chilling fear. When no one answered his phone calls again and again, his heart sank to a level of hell.
On the way from Jiaoshi County, he had already been sent to the eighteenth level of hell:
"Have you eaten yet?"
Ye Xiaomei was slightly startled and looked up at the man. The coldness in his eyes turned into an incomprehensible expression of sadness.
But he was not angry: "I... was just about to go back to the dormitory to eat."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Qijun pulled Ye Xiaomei away, and neither of them spoke a word on the way.
If you say the air was depressing, Ma Qijun held her hand the whole time. If you say he was not angry, his face was particularly gloomy, making Ye Xiaomei not know what to say.
Sixi Restaurant is considered a very luxurious restaurant in Chaocheng. It has two floors, and the decoration and design are very simple, like an ancient restaurant. The storyteller's platform is also preserved on the first floor.
On the second floor, in the private room, at Noda's round table, Ma Qijun did not sit next to Ye Xiaomei, but sat opposite her.
Ye Xiaomei carefully moved her gaze from the menu up to Ma Qijun's bright yet complex eyes:
"Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to sit at such a big table?"
"Suitable." Ma Qijun looked away and pinched his eyebrows subconsciously.
"Since we're here, why not have some braised pork? What do you want to eat?" Although the food here tastes good, it's expensive. Ye Xiaomei knows very well that making money is not easy.
“Sweet and sour fish.”
"good!"
Ye Xiaomei ordered two dishes, returned the menu to the waiter, and looked at Ma Qijun. Just as she was about to speak, the man looked away again.
What's going on? Is she sulking? She explained that she left her phone in the dormitory and had been in the Military General Hospital all afternoon.
Ye Xiaomei thought for a long time before carefully asking, "Brother Ma, are you angry?"
Ma Qijun's hawk-like eyes turned and fell on the woman's face: "I'm not angry." He just didn't dare to look the woman in the eye.
She had no idea that the moment he couldn't contact her, his heart was about to explode.
He was even afraid that the woman saw the depths of his heart from his eyes, the anxiety, worry and even fragility of losing her.
"Why are you sitting so far away? We only ordered two dishes, how are we going to eat them?" Ye Xiaomei looked at the huge table helplessly.
"You can order a few more dishes to fill up the table."
"..." Ye Xiaomei was dumbfounded, muttering in her heart - and still said she was not angry.
"We can't finish ordering so much, and it's a waste of money." Ye Xiaomei muttered with her head down.
Ma Qijun looked at the intoxicating silhouette left by her curled eyelashes on her delicate eyelids, and the tip of her small nose illuminated by the chandelier. It was a beautiful sight that he could not get to see often.
Being stared at by so many male classmates at the beginning of the school year was already dangerous. Now something happened in the morning and she couldn't be contacted in the afternoon. Ma Qijun was really devastated, but he couldn't do anything about her.
Ye Xiaomei didn't receive the man's answer, so she looked up suddenly and their eyes met.
Ma Qijun looked away again. It was too obvious. Ye Xiaomei's heart was filled with emotions. Not to mention that she had never coaxed a man in her life, even since she married him, it was Ma Qijun who coaxed her.
"Well..." Ye Xiaomei stood up and moved to Ma Qijun's side. She carefully pulled over a chair and only dared to sit on the lower half of it. She held it in for a long while before speaking:
"I know you're angry. Brother Ma, I will never leave my phone without my phone. I swear."
Woman, you still know that I am worried about you, Ma Qijun thought fiercely: "No need to swear, as long as you can admit your mistakes and correct them, you are a good comrade."
Ye Xiaomei took the man's hand that was placed flat on his knees and said softly with a smile, "Then you are not angry anymore?"
Just then, the waiter brought two dishes to the table, plus a few large steamed buns.
Ye Xiaomei quickly straightened up, and everyone saw how embarrassed she was: "Eat quickly, Brother Ma, I'm so hungry."
"Well, eat slowly." Ma Qijun picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sweet and sour fish and put it in his bowl, carefully picking out the bones inside.
At this moment, a figure flashed outside the private room door and then retreated.
"Ye Xiaomei? What a coincidence?"
Ye Xiaomei puffed up her cheeks and looked up. It was Ye Xiaolin?
"Why? You only ordered these two dishes? Ma Qijun, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but no matter how high your rank is, you only get a few bucks. Look at how hungry you've made your wife's belly look."
Ye Xiaolin was wearing a cheongsam, and her upper body was still covered with the expensive mink shawl. Her long legs were exposed as if she was deliberately showing off her fair skin. If you didn't look closely, it would be hard to tell that they were stockings that most people couldn't afford.
Without even raising his eyelids, Ma Qijun placed the fish meat with the bones removed into Ye Xiaomei's bowl.
The corners of Ye Xiaolin's mouth slowly slid down. No one had dared to ignore her in all these days.
Ye Xiaomei stuffed the food into her mouth and said incoherently, "It's a waste to order too much. Sister Xiaolin, we don't have much food here. You should just eat yours."
"Really?" Ye Xiaolin walked in with her arms folded, followed by a little girl of about fifteen or sixteen.
"Xiaoxiao, go ahead and ask the boss to serve me all the signature dishes of this restaurant. I had promised to treat my sister to a meal, so I'll eat in this room today. I'll also go and tell my godfather that I met an acquaintance and won't be going for the time being."
As Ye Xiaolin spoke, he crossed his legs, the slit of his legs making his white thighs vaguely visible.
The girl named Xiaoxiao said yes and turned and left.
Ye Xiaomei was slightly startled. How could she not know that Ye Xiaolin had something bad in mind? "We are almost done eating. How about I eat faster and make room for you guys?"
"Ye Xiaomei, do you look down on me?" Ye Xiaolin's face fell instantly. Wasn't she laughed at enough in the past in the village?
Now that she was finally in high spirits, she didn't see any jealousy or envy on Ye Xiaomei's face. Why? Was she pretending to be noble?
She doesn't believe that there is anyone in this world who doesn't like money and power.
Ye Xiaomei was instantly extremely embarrassed. To be honest, she looked down on Ye Xiaolin. She, Ye Xiaomei, really could not do such a thing as trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful.
Ma Qijun raised his eyes slowly, wiped his hands with a napkin, and said calmly:
"Take your time to eat. Xue Wenhao has invited me several times, but I refused. It's better to do it today than to wait for another day."
