There were still many fans staying at the event and unwilling to leave. They held books and looked over here from afar, wanting to take a few more glances at their idols.
Wen Xi waved goodbye to his fans and was then led out through another passage by the bookstore staff.
He Tingyan went to the parking lot first, picked up the people, and drove directly to Taoran Pavilion.
Mr. He had prepared a table there early to celebrate Wen Xi's success.
Because the event was delayed, it was already past seven when we arrived.
Seeing the two people push the door open and enter, the old man, who had been feeling a little drowsy, suddenly perked up. He stood up from his soft chair and called out, "Finally, you're here! It's already this late, you must be starving, right? Come on, sit down and have some tea and some snacks to fill your stomach. I'll have the food served right away."
As he said that, he busied himself calling the waiter over.
"Sister Xixi and little uncle, you guys are finally here. I'm almost starving. I can finally have dinner."
As soon as he saw Wen Xi, He Xing hurriedly dragged a chair to sit next to her and started to act coquettishly to ask for chocolate balls.
"You're not hungry at all? You've almost eaten all the snacks on the table. Look at your missing teeth, and you still dare to ask for candy?" The old man who was talking to the waiter turned around and scolded him.
He Xing stuck out his tongue and fell into Wen Xi's arms in shame.
The food came up quickly and everyone sat together eating and chatting in a warm atmosphere.
Halfway through the meal, He Xing suddenly slapped his head and looked at the old man to remind him, "Oh, great-grandfather, that should be almost done, right?"
The old man was stunned for a moment and then reacted immediately. He quickly put down his chopsticks and was about to walk out, muttering to himself that he almost forgot.
"What did you forget?" Wen Xi looked at the grandparents and grandchildren who were running out together.
"It's okay, it's okay. Just eat slowly, girl. We'll be back soon." As they said that, the adult and the child slipped out of the private room and disappeared without a trace.
"What are they doing? They're so mysterious."
"Maybe it's to give you a surprise."
"What surprise?"
"Can it still be called a surprise if I tell you so?"
“…”
I almost forgot, killing the conversation is the boss's specialty.
Wen Xi, who didn't want to have awkward conversations, buried her head in her food. Her hair kept slipping into the dish, so she simply grabbed her hair and prepared to tie it into a ponytail. However, when she was combing her hair, she felt a pain and couldn't help but let out a soft cry.
"What's wrong?"
He Tingyan, who was wiping his mouth elegantly, quickly looked over at her.
"It seems like a strand of hair is stuck in the zipper." Wen Xi hissed.
"Let me see."
He Tingyan was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked towards her.
"good."
Wen Xi didn't refuse.
She tried to pull it but couldn't move it. It seemed that the strand of hair was still tangled too deeply. The zipper was not visible on the back and there was no way to get it untied, so she had to stand up and walk to a brighter place to ask He Tingyan for help.
"Did you see that? Is it tangled in the zipper?"
"Um."
He Tingyan responded lightly, his lips tightly pursed.
In order to make it easier for him to see, Wen Xi had already pushed the rest of her hair in front of her body, revealing her slender and graceful neck. Under the bright light, the white hair looked even whiter and more delicate, as warm and beautiful as mutton-fat white jade.
He Tingyan's eyes darkened, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he felt his heart skip a beat.
It was the first time for him to be so close to a girl.
Moreover, she was the girl he liked.
He Tingyan's hands hanging by his side were trembling slightly and sweating.
Seeing that He Tingyan didn't move for a long time, Wen Xi turned around and looked at him.
