Chapter 220 Not a Match at All
At 9:30 on Saturday morning, Wen Liang went to Xinghewan Villa to pick up Fu Shifan and took her shopping in the mall.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the two were about to head to the restaurant when Wen Liang received a message from Meng Ce: "Sister, we met a cafe on the way. What would you like to drink?"
Then I took a picture of the menu and sent it to me.
Wen Liang opened the menu and leaned over, "Fanfan, what would you like to drink?"
Fu Shifan took a look, her black eyes rolled, and she ordered the most expensive one. She bit her finger and said, "Aunt, I want three cups, one for me, one for uncle, and one for Grandma Wang."
Wen Liang: “…”
This little girl found all kinds of ways to cheat Meng Ce out of his money.
"Okay, three cups then." Wen Liang told Meng Ce the names of the drinks and gave him a red envelope.
Meng Ce: "Sister, why are you transferring money to me again? I said I'd treat you today!"
When she returned home that night, Wen Liang transferred the lunch money to Meng Ce. After all, it was her and Fu Shifan who were eating there, so how could she let Meng Ce pay for it?
Meng Ce didn't want to accept it at first, but Wen Liang said he would treat him on Saturday, so he accepted it.
Wen Liang typed a few words: Just accept it, I'll treat you to lunch, you don't need this.
After thinking about it, she deleted the last few words and replied: "Just take it. You just started your internship and haven't received your salary yet. You need money."
A few seconds later, Meng Ce received the red envelope and sent a cat head emoticon, "Then I'll accept it. Thank you, sister."
"Of course I should. By the way, do you mind if I bring Fanfan with me?"
Meng Ce took a minute to express his concern before replying, "I don't mind."
Wen Liang could almost imagine Meng Ce's reluctant expression and smiled.
"Hmph." Fu Shifan pouted and turned her face away.
"What's wrong? Baby Fanfan?" Wen Liang put the phone in his pocket.
"Auntie was just busy chatting and ignored me."
"Auntie didn't ignore you."
"Auntie ignores me now. Maybe she won't take me out to play next time. Maybe she won't even see me in the future." Fu Shifan's little face showed some resentment.
Wen Liang couldn't help laughing out loud, "You're such a clever little devil!"
Wen Liang took Fu Shifan to the restaurant.
During the meeting, Meng Ce sent a message: "Sister, I'm here, at the innermost table in the second row."
Two photos were sent later.
One is the seating location and the other is the menu.
Meng Ce: "Sister, take a look at something first."
Wen Liang was driving and had no time to look at it, so he handed it to Fu Shifan in the back, "Fanfan, take a look at what you want to eat and tell Uncle Meng."
"It's my brother!" Fu Shifan took the phone and emphasized, "Aunt, let me read it to you. What do you want to eat?"
"Don't bother. Just order what you like."
"good."
"Why do you have to call him brother?"
"Because you two are of different generations, you're not a good match at all!"
Wen Liang: “…”
The two arrived at the restaurant and went straight to their seats.
"Sister, this way." Meng Ce raised his eyes and saw Wen Liang, waved with a smile, revealing a row of white teeth.
"Here I come."
Wen Liang walked over with Fu Shifan, and sat down opposite Meng Ce. "Have you ordered?"
"Yeah." Meng Ce nodded despite the pain and took out a few cups of coffee from the bag. "Here, sister, coffee."
"Thank you." Wen Liang handed a cup to Fu Shifan, "Fanfan, thank you uncle."
"Thank you, brother." Fu Shifan said.
"You're welcome." Meng Ce curled the corners of his mouth towards Fu Shifan with a fake smile.
But in front of Wen Liang, he couldn't show anything.
Wen Liang and Meng Ce chatted about some work matters. After about fifteen minutes, the waiter started serving the dishes, starting with two.
"Sister, Fanfan, eat, you're welcome."
Fu Shifan was not polite at all and picked up the chopsticks to start working.
Then I took the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth lanes...
After the eighth dish arrived, Wen Liang looked at the table full of dishes and said casually, "It should be gone, right? Why did you order so much? We definitely can't finish it."
Meng Ce looked up at Wen Liang and asked in surprise, "There are a few more dishes. Isn't that the menu my sister sent me?"
"Ah?" Wen Liang was stunned for a moment, then thought of something. He opened the dialog box with Meng Ce and took a look. He almost threw Fu Shifan out!
She turned off the screen of her phone and looked at Fu Shifan coldly.
Fu Shifan lowered his head silently, crossed his index fingers, and had a guilty expression.
Wen Liang smiled apologetically at Meng Ce, "Sorry."
"Why are you apologizing, sister? I'm treating you all, you can eat whatever you want." Meng Ce said immediately, but he guessed what had happened.
It turned out that it was the meal ordered by Fu Shifan.
No wonder!
He knew that his sister cared about him and was reluctant to let him spend more money!
Wen Liang smiled and decided to transfer the money to Meng Ce after the meal.
Perhaps the little girl had done something wrong, so she stopped making trouble during meals and soon her stomach was full.
During this time, Meng Ce was very careful and picked up food for Wen Liang according to his preferences.
He ate it warm for the first time, and after a few minutes, Meng Ce took a second bite.
Wen Liang didn't eat anything, so he reminded her, "Eat your own food, don't give me any."
The act of picking up food from each other is still a bit intimate.
It’s right for her to get close to Meng Ce, but she also needs to know when to stop.
"Oh, okay."
The two had a great conversation, talking about everything from work to all sorts of wild ideas.
With Wen Liang's deliberate response, Meng Ce felt that he and her had a lot in common, and he became more determined in his choice.
It seems that my sister should have some feelings for him, right?
As the conversation was about to end, Meng Ce casually mentioned, "Sister, there's a movie theater nearby. There's a new movie coming out recently that's getting good reviews. It's still early, do you want to go see a movie?"
Wen Liang wiped Fu Shifan's mouth and asked, "What movie?"
"Summer Promise."
"A modern romance?"
"Well, do you like watching this? If you don't like it, you can change to something else."
Wen Liang was afraid of kissing scenes in romance movies. The embarrassment between her and Meng Ce was secondary. The most important thing was that Fu Shifan was there too.
“Are there any cartoons?”
Meng Ce paused for a moment and said, "There should be. Let's go and take a look."
Okay.
Never mind what you're looking at, just go and see it.
Wen Liang asked, "Fanfan, do you want to go to the movies? Watch anime?"
Fu Shifan had not seen a movie since she came to Jiangcheng. She was conflicted about whether to satisfy her own selfish desires or quickly pull her aunt away.
Finally, she nodded and said, "Go!"
Uncle won’t blame her, right?
"Okay, let's go to the movies."
Fu Shifan got down from his seat with a cup of coffee in his arms and took Wen Liang's hand.
Wen Liang was about to mention the remaining cups of coffee when Meng Ce picked up the bag first and said, "Sister, let me help you."
"Thanks."
The three of them walked to a nearby cinema.
Fu Shifan walked on Wen Liang's left side, and Meng Ce walked on Wen Liang's right side. When he swung his left hand, he accidentally bumped into Wen Liang's right hand.
He immediately withdrew his hand, his fair cheeks slightly red, and he smiled shyly, his clear eyes full of friendship, "Sorry."
"It's okay." Wen Liang smiled.
The three continued to move forward.
Meng Ce's hand touched Wen Liang's hand again.
He lowered his eyes, mustered up his courage, and held Wenliang's hand.
