"If you don't like it, just spit it out."
Lin Mengxi tilted her head, her eyes revealing a firmness, and her tone was extremely serious. She said loudly: "I like it!"
After saying that, she gave me a bright smile, as if to tell me that she enjoyed her meal and asked me not to worry about what happened just now.
"But you ate them both."
"How about another one?"
"No need."
Lin Mengxi put some food into my bowl and urged me enthusiastically, "Eat quickly. If there's anything you don't like, I'll order something else for you."
I quickly waved my hands to stop her and said, "That's enough, that's enough. It would be a waste if I ordered more."
Then we started chatting while eating.
When they were almost done eating, Lin Mengxi suddenly put down her chopsticks, blinked her sparkling eyes, and asked curiously, "How many girlfriends have you had in total?"
I thought about it and replied, "Two. What about you? Did you lie to me last time? You are so beautiful, how could you have never been in a relationship?"
Lin Mengxi tilted her head, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered, "Does it count as a secret crush? If not, then it really doesn't exist."
When I heard that, I couldn't help but burst out laughing. I asked in surprise, "What the hell? Does a secret crush count?"
Lin Mengxi immediately glared at me and said angrily, "Hmph, your family is strict! If secret crush doesn't count, then I've never had a boyfriend, so why doesn't it count?" She looked quite cute with that shy and annoyed look on her face.
Lin Mengxi raised her head slightly, blinking her big eyes, her eyes full of curiosity and confusion, and asked softly, "What is love like?"
I was a little lost for words. I raised my hand and scratched my head. After thinking for a long time, I slowly said, "I don't know how to put it, but I think companionship and understanding are the best. These two points seem to be the most basic, but they are the most difficult to actually do."
After listening to this, Lin Mengxi nodded thoughtfully, as if she had really taken my words to heart and was still pondering them carefully in her mind.
We had almost finished the food on the table. I subconsciously looked at the time. When I saw it, I couldn't help but frown. It was almost ten o'clock.
"I'm afraid it's hard to get into school."
Lin Mengxi, however, acted nonchalant and casually replied, "Then let's stay in a hotel. It's late anyway, and we can't sleep on the streets."
After hearing what she said, I secretly groaned inwardly and unconsciously reached into my pocket to touch the only sixty yuan I had left. This amount of money was just enough to pay for a cheap hotel.
Thinking of this, my face suddenly felt hot.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Lin Mengxi tilted her head and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"I'm going to the bathroom, please wait for me."
"Your face is turning red, go quickly."
I thought to myself, this redness is not from holding back, it is from being slapped hard by reality!
I fled to the corridor, my heart aching. I wondered if I could just call my mom and ask her to transfer some money. But as soon as the thought came to my mind, I immediately felt it was not a good idea. It was so late, and school had just started. I had already lost over a thousand yuan. How could I ask my family for more? They were just ordinary working class people, and earning money was not easy.
Thinking of this, I sighed helplessly and gave up the idea.
After much thought, I finally called Zhu Wei.
The guy ended up hanging up. I was feeling anxious when my phone received a transfer notification. Zhu Wei had transferred 1,000 yuan to me and then replied, "Don't bother me, I'm playing games."
When I saw it, I was overjoyed and quickly sent him a message calling him "Yifu!", thinking of thanking him very much, but this guy probably immersed himself in the game again and never replied to my message again.
After I returned to my seat, Lin Mengxi saw me and immediately smiled. She asked softly, "Are you done?"
I nodded and replied, "Yeah."
Lin Mengxi stood up, patted the corner of her clothes, and said, "Then let's go for a walk outside to help digest the food. We're so full."
Of course I agreed.
Then we walked out of the hotel together and walked slowly along the street.
After walking for about ten minutes, Lin Mengxi turned her head to look at me and asked, "Where are we staying tonight?"
"How about that hotel just now?"
Lin Mengxi listened, smiled and said, "Sure."
“Then I have to pay for this.”
After hearing this, Lin Mengxi frowned slightly and seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally nodded. She reached out and gently pinched my face, pretending to be angry and said, "Then go to the hotel. You, save some money and eat more nutritious food in the future. Do you hear me?"
"Okay, okay, I heard you."
Then we walked towards the hotel. When we got to the front desk, I said to the waiter, "Two single rooms, please."
As soon as I said that, Lin Mengxi quickly reached out and pulled me, saying to the waiter, "Just give me a double room!"
The waiter smiled and enthusiastically recommended, "I have a king-size room here! Would you like one? It's spacious and comfortable."
“We both don’t…”
Lin Mengxi interrupted me, stared at me fiercely, and said to the waiter in a firm tone: "I want a king-size bed room."
She and I walked into the room one after the other. After I gently closed the door, Lin Mengxi began to look around curiously. After looking around, she nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad."
