Inside the capital, Mingxiu and Kangxi strolled leisurely along the road. Mingxiu held a cup of milk tea in her hand, while Kangxi held some miscellaneous items.
Mingxiu took a sip of her fruit tea and gave Kangxi a resentful look: "I already said it's hot today, it's hot, what's wrong with drinking something cold? Why did you have to buy something hot? It doesn't taste good at all."
"No, have you forgotten that you felt unwell last time because you ate ice? Be good, you can eat ice again after these few days." Kangxi coaxed Mingxiu, holding her hand.
Mingxiu frowned in annoyance and shook the two people who were holding her: "Let go of me, I'm dying of heat, my hands are all sweaty."
"Let's find a shop to rest for a while. It's almost noon, so we can have lunch," Kangxi said, looking at the shops in front of him.
"Okay, I want to eat fast food." Mingxiu nodded happily. That's fine too, at least the store is cool inside.
"Alright, let's go inside then." Kangxi pulled Mingxiu inside.
Once inside, there were quite a few people in the restaurant, but the two handsome men and beautiful women, Mingxiu and Kangxi, stood out. Everyone's attention gradually turned to them. Kangxi glanced around and pulled Mingxiu to a corner: "This place is quite cool. Let's rest here for a while."
Mingxiu naturally agreed. Nowadays, everyone orders by scanning a QR code. Over the past few years, because Mingxiu likes to eat these things, she has appeared on Kangxi Lai Le quite often and is already very familiar with it.
He skillfully started taking orders for the two of them. Every time Mingxiu came, she had to have a chicken leg, a serving of fries, and a Coke. These were must-orders, so Kangxi naturally ordered them without hesitation. He also ordered some other things, and when ordering, he didn't forget to change the Coke to one without ice. Mingxiu rolled her eyes at his series of actions.
"Xiao Mingxiu"
Mingxiu was just about to say something to Kangxi when she suddenly heard someone shouting next to her and turned around.
They saw a man and a woman standing not far away from them, and the woman was looking at Mingxiu with a look of surprise.
Mingxiu looked somewhat dazed, and her ears retrieved information about this person from her memory.
"Zhuzhu"
"Oh, it's me! What a coincidence! What are you doing here?" A girl named Zhuzhu walked over and said.
"Oh, what a coincidence! Let's sit down together." Mingxiu snapped out of her daze and urged the others to sit down quickly.
Zhuzhu unceremoniously pulled the man next to her to sit down.
"Let me introduce you. This is my husband, Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan, and this is my high school classmate, Zhuzhu." Mingxiu introduced them to each other. Zhuzhu was the original owner's deskmate in high school. At that time, the original owner was not very talkative, but Zhuzhu was a very cheerful girl who got along well with everyone in the class. The original owner was no exception. Although they weren't particularly close, they were still talkative.
"Oh my, you're married already? Time flies! This is my boyfriend, Wang Li, and this is Mingxiu."
Hello, Ye Xuan
Hello, Wang Li
"Do you have anything you'd like to eat or drink? We're ordering right now," Kangxi said.
"No need, thank you, let's order ourselves," Wang Li quickly said.
"Don't be shy, we're all friends. It's fate that we've met again after all these years. It's just a meal, so hurry up and order," Mingxiu said.
"Then I won't be polite. How about a family bucket and a mint lemonade? It's so hot today," Zhuzhu said, wiping the sweat from her forehead.
Since his girlfriend had already said that, Wang Li naturally didn't stand on ceremony. He ordered food along with her, and then the two men went to prepare their meal, leaving the two girls to catch up.
"Your husband is quite something," Zhuzhu remarked, watching Kangxi's retreating figure.
Mingxiu smiled and nodded. Indeed, she looked quite good; her broad shoulders and narrow waist were pleasing to the eye. "That's right, my taste is quite good. I wouldn't have made a move if it wasn't good."
"Haha, you're awesome! How did you two meet?" Zhuzhu gave Mingxiu a thumbs-up and said.
"We were neighbors before, and we gradually got to know each other. Then I fell for her, and I pursued her until I won her over," Mingxiu said, blinking.
Zhuzhu covered her mouth and laughed.
"Sure, sis, that's how we should do it. If you see something you like, just go for it."
"That's right, the bold get rich, and the timid starve." Mingxiu chuckled and started talking nonsense.
"Oh my, you're completely different from before. A woman nourished by love is just different. How about it, your husband... is he doing well in that area?" Zhuzhu winked as she said this.
Mingxiu understood instantly from her gaze. Although he didn't want to understand so quickly, as an experienced person, it would be wrong if he didn't understand this kind of thing.
She nodded: "It's really good, I'm very satisfied." She was so busy she almost couldn't get out of bed this morning, how could she not be satisfied?
"Oh my, look at this shameless attitude. Is this still the same Mingxiu who would blush if her voice was raised even slightly?" Zhuzhu teased with a laugh.
“Hey, your boyfriend seems pretty good to me.” This time it was Mingxiu’s turn to wink at Zhuzhu.
"That's right, I'm very satisfied."
After they finished speaking, the two looked at each other and couldn't stop smiling.
"Have you been in the capital for the past few years? After graduation, our class monitor was planning a get-together, but we couldn't get in touch with you at all," Zhuzhu said.
Mingxiu nodded: "Yes, I came to the capital after graduating from high school and have been living here ever since. I don't plan to go back. Are you here for tourism or to work?"
“I went to university here when I graduated from high school. Coincidentally, my dad was transferred back, so we settled here.”
Mingxiu raised an eyebrow: "Congratulations, Uncle, you've been promoted a lot lately." Zhuzhu's father was the district head of their district back then, and now that he's been transferred to the capital, isn't that a promotion?
"I guess so. My dad was transferred here, and my mom's career was originally based here anyway, so I don't really care," Zhuzhu said nonchalantly.
Mingxiu nodded. Zhuzhu's mother was also a company owner and a successful businesswoman. Mingxiu had met her once before. Although she was very assertive in her career, she was very gentle at home.
"Why did you get married so early? You haven't even graduated from university yet," Zhuzhu asked curiously.
"It's nothing, anyway, the two of them have already decided on each other, and they're going to get married sooner or later, so they might as well get married sooner."
"It seems your boyfriend is really good to you, making you willing to get married so early," Zhuzhu exclaimed.
"What, is your boyfriend treating you badly?" Mingxiu raised an eyebrow.
“He wouldn’t dare,” Zhu Zhu sneered. “If he treats me badly, I’d castrate him.”
"Pfft," Mingxiu couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Sorry, sorry, I didn't expect that you'd still be the same after all these years."
Zhu Zhu only realized what she meant after she said it, and her face turned a little red.
