Chapter 363 Eating
"Xu Hai, it's time to get off work." Other employees asked when they saw the two of them.
"Yes, Brother Li, you haven't gotten off work yet?" Xu Hai nodded.
"Oh, it's almost done. I'll go back in a moment." A colleague named Brother Li said with a smile.
"Then we'll leave first. Brother Li, you should go home early too." Xu Hai said as Cheng Xiaoxin pulled his hand towards the elevator.
When they got into the elevator, Xu Hai asked, "What's wrong?"
Cheng Xiaoxin put his hands in his pockets. When he heard Xu Hai ask this, he took one hand out of his pocket and touched his stomach and said, "I'm hungry. I've just been in City B for a year. Can you take me around and see where I can find something delicious?"
"Okay, I'll take you to find something delicious." Xu Hai nodded.
Led by Xu Hai, they came to a street. "I've been here before, there's nothing delicious here." Cheng Xiaoxin said after seeing the street they came to.
"That's because you haven't found the delicious food hidden in the corner." Xu Hai said as he walked forward through the crowd. Cheng Xiaoxin followed behind him. There were still a lot of people, and Cheng Xiaoxin almost couldn't keep up with Xu Hai.
"This snack is delicious." Xu Hai said, pointing to the snack stand in front of him with a queue.
"Then let's give it a try."
The two of them waited in line for about twenty minutes before it was finally their turn. When Xu Hai got the garlic fried chicken he had been craving for, he didn't even care that it was hot.
Just pick up a piece with a skewer, blow on it and put it in your mouth. Your frozen hands will warm up by holding it tightly.
"Is it delicious?" Xu Hai asked Cheng Xiaoxin who was standing next to him.
Cheng Xiaoxin nodded quickly, "This is indeed good, is there anything else to eat?" You will definitely be able to eat better food by following him.
Xu Hai led the way to a store and said, "This one is also delicious."
"Walk!"
The two of them went in. There were quite a lot of people inside. It was cold outside, but they didn't feel cold immediately after they came in.
The heater was turned on to the highest setting, making my whole body warm.
This braised chicken restaurant is quite crowded. Led by the waiter, the two of them sat down in a secluded corner.
After ordering the food, they took a sip of hot tea from time to time.
"Do you usually come here by yourself?" Cheng Xiaoxin asked.
Xu Hai shook his head: "Ran Shu likes to eat the braised chicken in this restaurant. I used to eat it with her."
It turned out that this guy came here to eat with his girlfriend.
The two of them were having dinner when He Ranshu called them on video. They wanted to hang up, but Cheng Xiaoxin said, "It's the same if it's a phone call. Just answer it."
I clicked on the answer button, and He Ranshu's voice came out, "Xu Hai, do you miss me?"
"I miss you so much." After He Ranshu said these two sentences, she realized that Xu Hai was not at home but outside, and she blushed all of a sudden.
"Where... where are you now?" she asked.
"At the place where we usually eat." Xu Hai told him honestly. After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and said quickly, "I went out to eat with a man. Do you remember the netizen I told you about before?"
He Ranshu thought about it for a while, and suddenly remembered the netizen Xu Hai mentioned before, who was very good at computers and helped him.
My online name should be V.
"Have you met?" He Ranshu asked.
"Yes, he is sitting opposite me. Do you want to meet him? He also wants to see you."
"sure."
Only after He Ranshu agreed did Xu Hai turn around and let the two of them greet each other. Cheng Xiaoxin was quite outgoing and greeted He Ranshu enthusiastically when she saw him.
After the two chatted for a while, Xu Hai handed the phone back to them and they continued chatting. In order to make it convenient for them to chat and eat at the same time, Xu Hai placed the phone next to him.
"Does that mean you will come to City B in a few days?" Xu Hai's eyes lit up after hearing what He Ranshu said. He repeated the question in case he had heard it wrong.
"Yes, we can meet then."
Cheng Xiaoxin was a man who never shied away from trouble. He came over and asked with a smile, "When are you planning to get engaged?"
"I don't know about that." He Ranshu's face flushed slightly when he asked this.
"You must invite me when you get married," said Cheng Xiaoxin.
"Don't worry, we will treat you, Young Master Cheng. Don't forget to pay your share of the money when the time comes." Xu Hai said from the side. He pushed Cheng Xiaoxin's shoulder and said with a smile, "I'm already looking forward to your share of the money."
"I am the young master of the Cheng family. How can I be short of you?"
"I know you won't."
While the three of them were chatting and having fun, Cheng Xiaoxin's phone suddenly rang. He put down his chopsticks and picked up the phone. It was his eldest brother calling.
Looking at the phone and the time, he couldn't help but frown.
Xu Hai noticed it and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay. My boss in charge called me. I guess he wants me to go home." Cheng Xiaoxin said this and then answered the phone.
Sure enough, Cheng Haoqing on the other end of the phone immediately asked him where he was the moment he answered the phone.
"I'm having dinner with friends." Cheng Xiaoxin answered honestly.
"Then remember to go home early after dinner. If you really can't, I can pick you up." Cheng Haoqing said gently, but this made Cheng Xiaoxin a little annoyed. It was only around 9:30 and he was already urging him to go home before 10 o'clock.
The nightlife has just begun.
"Oh, you don't have to bother me. I'll go back by myself after eating and shopping." Cheng Xiaoxin said a lot of things to herself without giving Cheng Haoqing a chance to speak. "Brother, that's it. Don't worry about me. I'm hanging up."
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Xiaoxin put the phone aside, with a helpless look on his face.
Xu Hai also stared at him blankly without saying a word.
"What's going on?" He Ranshu asked when he noticed that the atmosphere between them was a little strange.
"Oh - nothing, my brother is just annoying." Cheng Xiaoxin said with a sigh.
"I am a grown man now, but if I come back late, I will be called to urge you."
As he said this, Cheng Xiaoxin began to miss the days when no one would bother him if he stayed out all night.
Before Cheng Xiaoxin was found by the Cheng family, he grew up in an orphanage. He lived alone after he turned 18, so everything in his life was extremely free.
As a result, he was recognized by the Cheng family and was restricted. But he also understood their feelings, because they were the ones who lost him when they took him out to play.
But Cheng Xiaoxin became impatient with too much meddling.
"Your brother is worried about you, you don't have to worry so much." Xu Hai looked at him and said.
"It's not even ten o'clock yet, and he's urging me to go home." Cheng Xiaoxin said, pointing at the time.
Well, it's quite early.
"Then you can explain it to them clearly, or just tell them what time you will be back," said Xu Hai.
