Chapter 50: Handsome and Tragic

The light brightness is so good, and the background of the garden is beautiful, so people look good in photos from any angle.

Looking at her fair and clear facial features in the photos, Chu Shuang was quite narcissistic and took selfies in various poses and angles.

She wanted to take a picture with her back to the sun, so she tilted her head and turned around. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a tall figure on the bench. Her bright smile paused.

When did Sheng Ting come?

The man was calm and composed, his eyes clear, and he waited silently for her to continue taking selfies.

How can I continue taking pictures in the first frost?

Thinking about all the narcissistic little actions I had just displayed, I found myself finding it difficult to maintain my composure.

"Today... the weather is really nice."

Sheng Ting responded: "That's right."

Seeing that she didn't continue, he asked, "You don't want to take pictures anymore?"

Chu Shuang smiled faintly, "We've almost finished shooting."

Glancing at the relaxed man, she turned the conversation to him, "Do you want me to take a few photos for you?"

"what ever."

Glancing at his deep facial features, Chushuang's palms felt a little itchy. She followed his instructions and raised the rear camera of her phone.

At the moment the photo was frozen, Chu Shuang stared at the person on the phone in shock for a few seconds.

In the winter garden on a sunny day, the sky is deep blue, the sunlight warms people's hearts, and the person sitting leisurely on the bench has a clear brow, dignified and steady.

Walk over and show him the photo.

"You look very photogenic."

The man glanced at it casually. "Not bad."

Is this okay?

Hatsushimo asked, "Should I send it to you?"

"Send it together with the one just now."

just now.

You mean her selfies?

"good."

"What would you like for dinner?"

He changes the subject so quickly.

Chu Shuang hadn't decided what to eat yet, Sheng Ting glanced at his watch and said, "I'm free today, I can make you a feast, just tell me what you want to eat, opportunities don't come around often."

He still cooks himself.

Hatsushimo first expressed a little doubt: "Can you cook everything I want to eat?"

It was normal for her to have doubts. He didn't look like a man who could cook. Her knowledge of his cooking skills was limited to the two fried eggs and lotus porridge he had made for breakfast.

“Everybody.”

"Tomato scrambled eggs, stir-fried beans and meat, eggplant with sauce..."

"Is that all you want to eat?" The man looked at her and said, not jokingly, "It's a feast."

"Then we'll have Dongpo pork, spicy crayfish, beef offal soup, sour shrimp and beef, and soft and glutinous pig's trotters."

Sheng Ting nodded without any burden, "Okay, do you have any ingredients at home?"

"At home... I don't know."

She hasn't cooked for a while.

Haoqing ordered a lot of food, but he didn't even know what ingredients were at home. "I'll just cook whatever I have. I'm not picky about food."

The man understood and stood up. "It's still early. There's still time to buy it."

He walked a few steps and found that the person behind him had not caught up yet, so he turned around and said, "Let's go to the supermarket."

"oh!"

After getting the car keys, Sheng Ting went to the garage to drive the car. Chu Shuang asked him if he could take the golden retriever with him.

"You can bring it if you want."

After tying the golden retriever to a leash and placing it in the back seat, Chu Shuang sat in the passenger seat.

Sheng Ting drove very steadily. It was the first time for the two of them to go out for a drive in such good weather.

Perhaps sensing that its owner was in a good mood, the little golden retriever in the back seat also looked happy. It stared outside with its big, bright black eyes and wagged its tail much faster than usual.

The first frost has appeared.

"Hamster, you look so happy?"

The puppy barked and opened its mouth to reveal its cute long tongue.

Chu Shuang was so cute that she couldn't help but pull its head.

"Come out with us and spoil it."

Suddenly she thought of something and paused, "Dogs can't go to the supermarket."

Sheng Ting glanced at her eyes, which were as clear and pure as a dog's. He thought for two seconds and said slowly, "There is a pet-friendly supermarket where you can take your dog to shop."

"Okay, let's go there."

Passing by a roadside vendor, Chu Shuang's eyes lit up, "Egg-wrapped glutinous rice, it's not easy to find in the north."

Sheng Ting parked the car on the side of the road and got out to buy one.

"Try it. This is what I loved to buy at the school gate when I was a kid."

The first bite will be given to Sheng Ting first.

Seeing him eating, Chu Shuang observed his expression, "How is it?"

It was fine at first and nothing could be seen, but after a few seconds, the man's originally calm face was obviously stunned for a moment.

“Is it delicious?”

“What does this smell like?”

Hatsushimo answered honestly: "Eggs and glutinous rice."

"No," Sheng Ting's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, "It's a seasoning."

He savored the taste: "Chili peppers, green onions, garlic, and diced pickled radish."

Silently looking at the egg-wrapped glutinous rice in his hand, Chu Shuang discovered the problem, "Zhe Er Gen?"

"You don't eat Houttuynia cordata?"

Glancing at his not-so-good look, Chu Shuang suppressed her smile and said, "Sorry, you northerners seem to not be used to this taste. I didn't remember it."

She took a bite and it tasted delicious.

It is a great loss if you don’t know how to eat Houttuynia cordata. These snacks will lose their soul without this condiment.

Seeing that she was very satisfied with the meal, Sheng Ting thought of the indescribable taste in his mouth just now, and looked at her with eyes full of confusion.

“You think it’s delicious?”

"It's delicious. Houttuynia cordata is the soul." Chushuang explained to him, "People in many places in the south can't live without it in their daily diet. Not only is it used as a seasoning for various snacks, but there are also special main dishes such as cold Houttuynia cordata, Houttuynia cordata fried with meat, and Houttuynia cordata skewers and grilled skewers."

"By the way, there is a drink that has become popular in the past two years, called Zheergen Cool Tea."

Sheng Ting's expression gradually changed from calm to frowning. Chu Shuang noticed it and laughed in her heart, but she looked serious. "I haven't eaten fried pork with water chestnuts for a long time. I miss the taste."

"There are probably very few supermarkets selling that here."

"Yeah, okay, let's eat it when we return home later."

When they arrived at the supermarket, Chu Shuang walked side by side with Sheng Ting, holding Golden Retriever. She was in charge of shopping, while Sheng Ting was in charge of purchasing.

When she finished shopping and was checking out, she was standing outside the supermarket waiting for Sheng Ting. Two girls walked past her after checking out, and her ears could still hear their hushed conversation.

"That guy is so damn handsome. I just accidentally glanced at his face and my heart rate skyrocketed!"

"That height, that temperament, it's worth it today!"

As their conversation faded away, Hatsushimo looked at the man waiting in line to pay.

He stood out in the crowd as being tall and straight, with eyes that looked like eyes and nose that looked like nose. He looked cool and composed in a dark grey suit.

I'm afraid the word "handsome" is too weak.

The rope in her hand suddenly tightened, and before she could react she was pulled backwards with great force. Her body instinctively ran a few steps in a hurry to keep her balance, but the inertia was too strong to cause her to fall.

When Golden Retriever fell heavily down the stairs, he was still running hard, while Chushuang rolled down several not-so-high stairs miserably to the road.

Her knees and elbows were burning. She had fallen down while running, and her joints had hit the steps too hard. She felt pain in several bones.

"First Frost!"

Sheng Ting had just come out after settling the bill when he saw her fall heavily down the stairs. His dark eyes darkened and he ran to her side and helped her sit up.

She didn't know where she hit her palm, and beads of blood the size of beans rolled down.
