The two of them went to a secluded place, and after making sure no one was around, they set out their bicycles. They would use them to transport things later. If Assistant Chen asked, they would just say they bought them. It was just a cover anyway.
"Where are we going to eat?" Xia Youyou sat on the front bumper. This man seemed to be addicted. He never unloaded the things on the back seat and never let her sit in the back.
"I've been here before and I know there's a red house. Can I take you there to try it?"
"What is the Red House for?" Forgive Xia Youyou for not knowing. In her past, she never made any distinction between Western and Chinese food.
"It's Western food that came from abroad, mainly steak. How about I take you to a movie after dinner?" On the way here just now, he saw the tall building, which was a movie theater.
Xia Youyou looked at the buildings on both sides of the road, which were very different from those in Beijing, and the trams whizzing by. She found it very novel and moved her head left and right to look.
"Do you want to come down and take a walk?" Seeing that she couldn't see everything with both eyes, he thought of walking and looking slowly.
She shook her head and said, "No, just like this." Walking is so tiring, this is good enough.
Compared with the alleys in Beijing, Haishi is full of high-rise buildings, and the architectural styles are different.
Qi Siling led her around turns until a small bungalow appeared on the side of the road. The exterior walls were surprisingly red.
They stopped by the roadside, and Xia Youyou was carried off the bicycle. She watched the man lock the bike, and then he took her hand and led her inside.
She was a little surprised that this man was so brave.
Qi Siling turned around and explained, "It's very open here. Holding hands is nothing."
As for how it was open, Xia Youyou would find out once she entered. In the Red House's hall, many people were already seated for dinner, and the two of them entering hand in hand didn't cause any major commotion. The waiter simply came over to ask how many people there were, then led them to their seats.
Qi Siling requested a small private room. They could have sat face to face, but instead, he took Xia Youyou's arm and sat to one side. He took the menu from the waiter and looked at it with her.
"What do you want to eat?" This was his first time here, too. He glanced at the menu, but didn't find anything particularly appealing. He'd come here because he'd heard colleagues say that everyone in Hai City who could afford it would come here for Western food. They also said the people there were incredibly open, hugging and dancing in the street. So, when the topic of eating came up, this place came to mind.
Xia Youyou glanced at the menu from top to bottom. They were all steak sets. The prices were reasonable.
"Steak, borscht, and assorted cold dishes, for two." He then handed the menu back to the waiter.
The curtain of the private room was lowered, and Qi Siling asked her, "Is this enough?"
"Try it first, and add more if it's good." Xia Youyou was held in his arms, so she leaned on the crook of his arm, picking at her shirt buttons boredly. "Anyway, I have a small appetite, and I probably can't finish a whole steak. You have to eat it and don't waste it."
Qi Siling moved sideways to block her entire body, then lowered his head to kiss her.
A deep French kiss is very appropriate in this European-style red house.
Xia Youyou rubbed her hands on his neck and was held by him and sat on his lap. The two of them had never been intimate in front of so many people, and they were both a little excited for a moment.
Qi Siling didn't dare to kiss her for too long, stirring her vigorously before letting go. He then pecked her slowly, one after another, to help her smooth her back and breathe more smoothly. The little girl's eyes were blurry, and she was dizzy from the kiss.
"good."
The man's lips pecked and kissed Xia Youyou from time to time. Xia Youyou felt a little itchy on her lips, so she could only push him away and scratch the itchy spot with her hand.
Qi Siling curled her lips, carried her back to the sofa, and helped her tidy up her hair that she had messed up.
Just as they finished packing, the waiter arrived with their food. The distinct aroma of steak filled the small private room. The steak, placed on the table, was still sizzling on the iron plate. Qi Siling, fearing it might burn her, brought her portion over and cut it. Having observed how others held their knives and forks when she first arrived, she felt a bit unfamiliar with the technique. The sound of the knife cutting against the iron plate was harsh, so she adjusted her grip and finally got used to it.
A plate of steak was quickly cut and pushed in front of Xia Youyou. He picked up a piece of steak, blew on it, and passed it to her mouth, "Try it."
Xia Youyou bit into it carefully, making sure it wasn't too hot before chewing it. It was tender and smooth, soft and delicate, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, cooked to perfection.
She nodded, "Not bad, you can eat it too."
I took a sip of the borscht with a spoon. It had a sweet and sour taste, was refreshing and smooth, and really stimulated my taste buds.
She tried the cold dishes again. She was a little uncomfortable with pig liver, as if offal was a forbidden area for her. Her mother had tried making pig lung soup and stir-fried large intestines before, but she couldn't accept them. So all the cold dishes went into Qi Siling's stomach. Xia Youyou laughed and said he was her second stomach.
"Okay, whatever you don't want to eat, you can pour it over to me."
"What? You're not a garbage station, why are you dumping it there? What I eat is not garbage."
The two of them argued loudly, Xia Youyou nagging him non-stop, seemingly unyielding. Qi Siling leaned over to silence her chattering mouth, exchanging a kiss reeking of beef.
Xia Youyou pushed him away in disgust, "Stop kissing me all the time, okay? At least pay attention to your image."
"It's okay here, no one will say anything about us."
"How do you know so much? How did you know the Red House was so open?" If people didn't know that he had never been in a relationship before, it would be hard not to suspect that he was a veteran based on the methods he used on himself.
She tugged on his collar, forcing him to lower his head. "Also, who did you learn all those tricks in bed from? Have you ever done that before?" She had almost overlooked this anomaly. Every time she was tortured to death, she was too busy getting angry at him to question him properly. Finally, today she had found her chance!
Qi Siling was truly wronged. Could he claim he learned this from those rough old men's nightly chats? Could he claim he had specifically gone to inspect the ancestral collection? This situation truly needed to be explained.
So he told him everything.
"Be good, I don't have anyone else!"
Xia Youyou was still skeptical. How could one learn something just by watching or listening?
But she doesn't understand men. Men can be said to be self-taught in this area.
I let go of his little hand, helped him straighten his collar, turned around and continued to drink his soup in small sips.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the man scratched his head, a little worried that she might be thinking too much. He held the little girl in his arms and solemnly wanted to swear, "Be good, if I had it before, let me..."
Xia Youyou covered his mouth expressionlessly to stop him from talking nonsense, and changed her hand to continue drinking the soup.
Qi Si Ling's heart tightened, knowing that she didn't believe it.
"I…"
"Stop talking and eat." Xia Youyou interrupted him, suddenly remembering something, something she had ignored for a long time and was unwilling to accept the fact...
