Chapter 375: Are you okay after that year?

In the box named "Pearl".

Everyone was seated.

At the beginning, the atmosphere was actually quite lively.

Everyone came to participate in the Four Seas Ceremony, and they were originally in the mindset of traveling, so everyone was in a good mood, not to mention coming to Fanhailou to eat delicious food.

Even if the two parties don’t know each other very well, it’s actually okay because they are of the same age.

But now, the atmosphere seemed rather awkward. The main reason was after Xu Ming introduced himself.

The two words "Xu Ming".

In their opinion, it would be best if it just appeared in rumors.

As long as Xu Ming does not appear in front of them and does not appear in reality, it doesn’t matter what happens to Xu Ming.

Although according to rumors, Xu Ming and Zhu Cici promised each other to be together for life, as long as Xu Ming did not show up, the rumors were just rumors.

As long as it was just a rumor, not many people would think about the relationship between Zhu Cici and Xu Ming.

Not to mention that Wu and Qi didn't get along very well, so the possibility of the two being together was very low.

But the moment Xu Ming appeared, everything was different.

The moment Xu Ming appeared, the rumors that had been circulating around the world might no longer be just rumors, but might become facts.

"Does Zhu Cici really still like Xu Ming?"

"The reason why Zhu Cici rejected so many marriage proposals was all because of Xu Ming?"

"Are the two of them really together?"

All kinds of speculations emerged in their minds.

Especially people like Ling Bisheng, they already had some feelings for Zhu Cici, it was just a matter of how much they liked him.

But in their hearts, they didn't care, because in their opinion, it was a good thing that Cici rejected everyone. In this way, Cici no longer belonged to one person, but to everyone.

And since everyone was rejected, they naturally felt very balanced.

Even in Bailu Academy, those people who were rejected by Zhu Cici felt a sense of mutual appreciation when they got together, and even became good friends.

What was unexpected was that now, a person who might be able to truly conquer Zhu Cici seemed to have appeared, and that person was Xu Ming!

Ling Bisheng looked in the direction of Zhu Cici.

Zhu Cici sat in front of Xu Ming, with her head lowered tightly, her hands on her thighs, and a blush on her cheeks.

Ling Bisheng was shocked and couldn't take his eyes away for a while.

It was the first time he saw Zhu Cici so shy. This had never happened before!

In the past, Zhu Cici gave people the impression of being dignified and elegant, and she was always calm no matter what happened.

The shy Zhu Cici seems to be more beautiful than before, and has more girlish charm.

Ling Bisheng was glad that he could see Zhu Cici in such a beautiful appearance, but he also felt a little sad in his heart.

Because this shy look was not because of herself, but because of the man sitting in front of Zhu Cici.

Xu Ming also felt a little embarrassed.

Originally Xu Ming felt fine.

Because in Xu Ming's opinion, the last time he and Zhu Cici met was actually when they were children, and no one would take childhood events seriously.

It's the same even if you are the one who gave the poem.

But, Zhu Cici was so shy that Xu Ming felt a little at a loss.

"No way?" Xu Ming thought to himself, "After so many years, could it be that Zhu Cici really likes me?"

Just when the atmosphere at the table felt a little subtle, the waitress from the restaurant came in with food.

"Come on, come on, eat some food." Finally finding an opportunity, Yu Wenxi called out to everyone, trying to ease the atmosphere at the table, "Let me tell you, the Jade Sashimi at Fan Hai Lou is the most delicious, especially when dipped in the special sauce made from Beihai, it's simply the best!"

"Then let me try it!" Miao Feng quickly picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, then put it in his mouth, and said "Hmm~" with an exaggerated expression! "Not bad, not bad! I like it so much! As expected, the more high-end the ingredients, the simpler the cooking method is." Miao Feng pointed at the sashimi and said, "Come on, come on, eat it quickly, it's so tender!"

"Let me try it too." Chen Kun couldn't wait any longer.

If the atmosphere hadn't been a bit awkward and Chen Kun hadn't been reluctant to pick up his chopsticks, he felt that he had already eaten nearly half of the plate.

As for the relationship between Cici and Xu Ming?

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

What does this have to do with me?

I just want to eat! After Chen Kun ate a piece of raw fish, his eyes lit up: "This is the first time I've eaten such delicious raw fish! It's so delicious!"

After saying that, Chen Kun ate another piece.

"Is this simple sashimi really that delicious? Let me try it."

Xu Ming smiled, took the initiative to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sashimi and put it into his mouth.

The moment Xu Ming took a bite of the sashimi, his tongue was filled with the tender and smooth feeling that melted in his mouth.

The fish meat doesn’t have any fishy smell at all, and you can even feel the fish fat jumping on the tip of your tongue.

"How is it, Brother Xu? I didn't lie to you, did I?" Yu Wenxi said.

Xu Ming nodded: "It is indeed very delicious. It is probably the best sashimi I have ever eaten."

After Xu Ming picked up his chopsticks, others also picked up their chopsticks, and dishes were served one after another.

Once the meal started, the atmosphere wasn't so strange anymore.

"I've heard that Brother Xu is very talented in writing. Why didn't he come to our Bailu Academy?" Fang Yu asked. "I heard that a senior uncle went to invite Brother Xu."

Xu Ming smiled and said, "I don't know about that. I haven't met the teacher from Bailu Academy. But I am actually a layman. I think wielding swords and guns is more suitable for me."

"Hahaha, Brother Xu is being modest." Yu Wenxi filled Xu Ming's glass. "The song 'Dielianhua' that Brother Xu composed when he was a child was truly amazing."

As soon as Yu Wenxi finished speaking, everyone else took a breath of cold air.

Miao Feng couldn't help but hold his forehead.

This guy doesn't even realize the atmosphere. Is now the right time to bring up this matter?

As expected, Zhu Cici, who was sitting next to him, blushed slightly and took a bite of her chopsticks. The atmosphere at the table, which had finally warmed up, suddenly became awkward again.

Just when Miao Feng was thinking of some way to warm up the atmosphere, Zhu Cici raised his head, looked at Xu Ming gently, and asked softly: "How have you been since that year?"
