Chapter 265 Far Away
Only then did He Ranshu remember that he said he would treat her to a meal during their last blind date, but she had forgotten about it after playing with Xu Hai for so many days.
He Ranshu smiled and replied awkwardly: "Sorry, I've been playing a little crazy recently and forgot about it."
"No problem. Does Ran Shu have time today?" Yinchuan shook his head and didn't care.
"Yes." He Ranshu nodded, "Then go."
The two of them came to a western restaurant, and Yinchuan carefully pulled a chair for her to sit down.
"Look." Yinchuan handed the menu to her and said.
He Ranshu took the menu, looked inside, and chose the steak he had eaten before. After ordering this, he handed it to Yinchuan and said, "I've ordered."
"Are you sure you don't want to order a few more dishes?"
He Ranshu shook his head and said, "No need."
In the end, it was Yinchuan who took the order. After the waiter left, the two of them just sat there and talked about nothing.
"Ran Shu, have you ever thought about marrying me?" Yinchuan looked at her with a tone full of expectation and anxiety.
He Ranshu was drinking tea, and was directly scolded by his words. She coughed at the same time, and Yinchuan quickly stood up and came over to pat her shoulder. He handed her a tissue and said, "Are you okay? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"I'm fine." He Ranshu took the tissue and waved at him.
She was really scared by Yinchuan's words. She didn't expect this man to say such a shocking thing.
"You...why do you suddenly ask such a question?" He Ranshu asked him hesitantly.
At this time, Yinchuan stared at her and said, "I like you."
"I've liked you for a long time."
He Ranshu was even more stunned when she heard this. This was the second time she met this man, and it seemed like he liked her.
"Um..." He Ranshu pursed his lips and said, "When did you start to like me?"
“We’ve never seen one.”
His voice became much weaker, and he seemed a little panicked.
Yinchuan sat in front of her, took a sip of tea, looked at her, and after a while he spoke: "Do you remember Tinghuyuan a year ago?"
"I lost my cell phone at that time, and you picked it up. I fell in love with you at first sight, and since then I have been secretly looking for news about you. When I found out that you were also in J City, I was particularly happy."
"During the Chinese New Year this year, I accidentally learned that your mother wanted to arrange a blind date for you, so I introduced you to your mother through someone else."
In other words, he arranged everything about the blind date.
Hearing the news, He Ranshu frowned slightly. At this moment, she somewhat disliked the man in front of her.
He had planned that blind date in every possible way. "Sorry, it's been a while and I can't remember it." He Ranshu said with a smile, shaking his head.
"It's okay, it's normal that you don't remember." Yinchuan said.
The waiter quickly brought the dishes to the table, and He Ranshu cut the steak with a knife and fork. She rarely ate steak, so she didn't know how to use a knife and fork at all, and the sound of the knife hitting the porcelain plate was a bit harsh.
He Ranshu thought it was very rude so he stopped cutting. Yinchuan stretched out his slender hand and picked up the steak in front of He Ranshu.
He took her knife and fork and helped her cut the food one by one. Seeing him like this, He Ranshu sighed inwardly.
If another woman sat in this position and looked at his handsome face, she would have fallen for him long ago.
But for some reason He Ranshu suddenly thought of Xu Hai, even though he had just left for a short time.
If Xu Hai were here, he would definitely chatter non-stop.
It will definitely make her laugh.
It’s over. Am I already missing that brat?
"alright."
Yinchuan handed the steak over with a smile on his face, "You eat."
"Thank you." He Ranshu smiled.
The way the two of them get along is that Yinchuan finds topics to talk about and He Ranshu answers them.
When the meal was almost over, Yinchuan looked at her and asked the question again: "Will you marry me?"
He Ranshu hesitated for three seconds and then shook his head, "Sorry, I don't want to get married now."
"Why?" Yinchuan asked her puzzledly, "Is it something I did that made you unhappy?"
He Ranshu said: "No, you are very good, but I don't really want to get married right now, I still want to have some fun."
Yinchuan immediately said, "I can wait for you!"
"Wait until you want to get married."
"If I don't want to get married in my lifetime, will you wait for me forever?" He Ranshu looked at him and asked, "What else do you like about me that you must insist on marrying me?"
This sentence made Yinchuan not know how to respond, and in the end he could only watch her leave. After hesitating for half a minute, he immediately paid the bill with the waiter and ran to chase He Ranshu.
When he saw He Ranshu on the sidewalk, he immediately called out to her: "He Ranshu!"
Hearing someone calling her, He Ranshu turned around and saw Yinchuan just two meters away from her. She pursed her lips and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Is it because of Xu Hai that you don't agree to marry me?" Yinchuan asked her.
"How am I inferior to him?"
Hearing this question, He Ranshu smiled. Seeing her smile, Yinchuan seemed to be back in Tinghu Courtyard, when she handed the phone to him.
At that time, she was smiling happily and was very likable. It was because of that smile that Yinchuan could not forget her.
This made him frantically inquire about her in the past year, and he also missed her madly in his heart.
He clearly had a chance, but that yellow-haired boy from Xu Hai got there first. How could he not be angry? How could Xu Hai compare to him?
"You are a good person, and he is a good person too, but I just think we are not suitable for each other." He Ran Shu said to him.
"What do you think is wrong with us?" Yinchuan asked hurriedly. He urgently needed an answer.
"You are gentle, kind, caring, and can cook. I earn money and can support the family. You take care of the interior while I take care of the exterior. Isn't this inappropriate?"
"How do you know that I, Wen Rou Xian Hui, can cook?" He Ran Shu stopped talking to him and said with a hint of impatience, "I hate cooking the most. I would rather order takeout than go into the kitchen."
"For that reason alone we are not suitable."
After saying that, she turned around and left without looking back.
Yinchuan looked at her receding back and angrily punched a big tree beside him, his eyes full of terrible possessiveness.
If He Ranshu saw this look in his eyes, she would definitely stay away from him immediately, because this kind of man is not someone she can mess with.
If she meets a man like this, she will definitely run as far as she can. This man is like the villain in the comics she draws.
She is really afraid of this kind of villain.
"I won't let you leave me." Yinchuan looked at He Ran who disappeared at the end and the book popped out word by word.
"Xu Hai, I won't let you ruin my good thing."
Xu Hai sneezed violently while sitting on the plane. He rubbed his nose with his hand and muttered, "Sister He must be missing me."
The plane landed about an hour later. As he walked out of the airport with his suitcase, he looked at the familiar place and sighed, "I'm back!"
Today happened to be the Lantern Festival, and when he was pulling his suitcase back home, he happened to run into them making dumplings in the living room.
"If you didn't tell us when you came back, I would have someone pick you up." Gu Fei's hands were covered in flour. He was particularly surprised when he saw the maid carrying the suitcase and Xu Hai next to her.
"Brother Xu Hai!" Hengheng saw him and rushed over to hug him without caring about the flour on his hands.
The impact forced Xu Hai to take a few steps back and lean against the door before he could stand firm.
Xu Hai's black clothes were all stained by him. He pushed and hummed, "Get up! My clothes are all dirty!"
"Brother Xu Hai, let's play games together tonight!" Hengheng shouted at him.
"Okay, I promise you." Xu Hai quickly agreed, "Now let me get up a little, you are so heavy."
After humming, she looked at her hands, then at his clothes, grinned, and reached out to wipe them again, "I'll add some white to you."
"Hey!" Xu Hai suddenly shouted, "Are you crazy? I'm wearing black clothes!"
"whee."
Walking next to them, Xu Hai looked at Gu Fei's belly. After looking at it for a long time, he said, "Sister Gu, your belly has grown a little bit."
"Yes, the baby will be born in four months." Gu Fei also looked down at his belly and said.
"I need to prepare a gift."
The dumplings were wrapped quickly and everyone sat aside, playing with their phones and watching TV while waiting for the dumplings to come out of the pot.
Xu Hai sat aside playing with his cell phone. He sent a message to He Ranshu to tell him that he had landed safely.
【Xu Hai: Congratulations, sister, I got home safely. Did you miss me?】
【Xu Hai: Congratulations, sister, today is the Lantern Festival. I am so sorry that I cannot celebrate it with you.】
【Xu Hai: Have you eaten? 】
He Ranshu returned home, sat on the chair, turned on his mobile phone, saw the pictures sent by Xu Hai, and felt particularly hungry.
[He Ranshu: You are back home. We must eat dumplings today for the Lantern Festival.]
As soon as she sent the message, Xu Hai replied to her immediately.
【Xu Hai: Not only dumplings, but also glutinous rice balls!!】
After a while, Xu Hai sent her a bunch of pictures, each of which looked particularly appetizing.
Especially that plate of big lobster, which really made her want to eat it.
"Tempting!" she replied after complaining.
【He Ranshu: Eat well. 】
【Xu Hai: Got it! 】
Gu Fei saw that he was not eating actively and was just playing with his phone. He teased him: "You keep your phone in your hand. Are you waiting for news from your girlfriend?"
"Sister Gu, I haven't caught up with her yet, so don't talk nonsense."
"Then you better work harder and try to let me attend your wedding in three years." Gu Fei patted his shoulder and said.
"Don't worry, I will prepare the betrothal gifts."
"Sister Gu, your requirements in the past three years are really too high. I can't do it." Xu Hai shook his head. At this time, his mobile phone sent another message. He quickly got up and saw that it was not from her.
"Five years?"
"It will all be fine if things take their course. I don't ask for much."
After finishing his meal, Xu Hai went upstairs to change his clothes and lay on the bed to play with his phone. At this time, there was a knock on the door. Heng Heng walked in with a camera and said to him, "Brother Xu Hai, I want to take two photos of you."
“Oh, you take the picture.”
Hengheng quickly took a few photos. After he finished, Xu Hai asked him, "Are you planning to learn other skills?"
"Yes, the housekeeper said that it is always good to have many skills. If I learn more now, I won't have to worry about being unemployed in the future." Hengheng sat next to him and looked at the photos taken for him.
"Not bad. I admire you for having such an idea at such a young age."
The day to go to work has arrived, and Xu Hai has also started his working days.
He will complete his internship in two months. Then he just needs to go to school to prepare his thesis and successfully defend it, and he will graduate!
By then he would be able to find a job, work hard to earn money, buy a house in City B, and give Sister He a home.
Love is not only sweet, but also full of ups and downs. He didn't want Sister He to quarrel with him over these things after she agreed to marry him. He also didn't want to be unable to satisfy his lover materially because of these things. In short, he needed to work harder and harder to make money.
Then he worked overtime every day, which made his colleagues look at him twice.
Chen Nan even pulled him aside after get off work and asked, "Young man, are you upset?"
"Working overtime every day makes me feel embarrassed to leave the early shift."
"I want to make money to buy a house and support my wife in the future." Xu Hai told Chen Nan this fact, "Overtime pay is high, and it's okay for me to work overtime."
Upon hearing what he said, Chen Nan silently gave him a thumbs up, "Young man, you have awareness, damn it!"
After cursing his mother, he also started to work overtime. It was really boring to earn so much money without anyone to help him spend it. Chen Nan decided to listen to his mother's words and go on a blind date to find a wife tomorrow.
Otherwise, it would be so boring if no one spends the money in the card and he has no time.
Humph, school has started and my deskmate has changed.
She is a girl with a particularly carefree personality. She doesn't have long hair, but a neat short hair.
She can chat with boys very freely and also with girls.
Although she is a very nice person, Hengheng still remembers Xiaohua in his heart.
"Xiao Song, what are you doing?" his new deskmate asked him in a low voice.
Hengheng was writing and drawing in a notebook with a pen, and replied to her: "Drawing something."
"Can I see it?"
"Okay, wait until I finish drawing."
He had just finished drawing after class, and his new deskmate saw that it was something strange that she had never seen before, so she asked, "What is this?"
“Durian.”
"What about this?"
"Big tree."
"You draw well." The new desk mate nodded.
Now there was no one to accompany him out of school after school, and he sighed. He was a little uncomfortable without Xiaohua in the new semester.
"Young Master, are you still not used to the new semester?" the driver asked when he saw him climb into the car in a depressed mood.
"It's OK."
"Then why are you so unhappy?"
"The familiar person is gone." Hengheng put his schoolbag aside and fastened his seat belt obediently.
"Would you like to get some snacks later?" the driver turned around and asked him.
"Sure, I want to drink milk tea." Hengheng nodded.
"Fasten your seat belts, I'm off."
"Can!"
Hengheng and the driver came to a nearby milk tea shop. The driver bought him a cup of milk tea and ordered one for himself.
The two of them sat on the side of the road and drank it.
