This day is Friday.

After Lin Zizhu dressed up, he went to the University of Finance and Economics to block Tan Zhilin.

But on the surface, she created the illusion that it was an accidental encounter.

After finishing his last class in the afternoon, Tan Zhilin packed his schoolbag and prepared to go back to Grandpa Qin's house.

Before he even walked out of the campus, he was stopped by someone. When he turned around and saw someone, he was quite surprised.

"Miss Zizhu, why are you here?"

The person who called Tan Zhilin was a girl from the school, whom Tan Zhilin happened to know.

Her name is Wang Jia. She is a girl who is studying the same major as him, one year older than him, but actually two years younger than him.

He wanted to complete the credits ahead of time, and had previously gone to their class to borrow professional course notes. At that time, it was this girl who lent him the notes.

At this time, Lin Zizhu was standing next to Wang Jia.

When Lin Zizhu saw him, he was also surprised, "Brother Tan?"

"I was just wondering who this person is. How could it be such a coincidence that he has the same name as you?"

At first, Tan Zhilin thought that Lin Zizhu came to see him specifically, and he was a little wary. After all, all the employees in the hot pot city knew that he was studying in this school.

But at this moment, looking at the other person's appearance, it doesn't seem like it.

The girl next to Lin Zizhu looked around at the two of them and asked, "Tan Zhilin, Zizhu, do you two know each other?"

Lin Zizhu explained with a smile, "Senior Jia, I worked in Brother Tan's hot pot restaurant for a while."

"Oh, so that's how it is."

Lin Zizhu introduced her to Tan Zhilin, "She is my senior in high school. She helped me a lot when we were in school. I know she is studying here. I don't have classes this afternoon, so I came to see her."

"I didn't expect to meet you by chance."

As she spoke, she looked at the two of them and smiled naturally, "I was planning to invite Senior Jia to dinner, Brother Tan, if you don't mind, let's join us."

"Before, I caused some bad influence on your hot pot restaurant, although you accepted my apology last time."

"But I still feel uneasy, so I'd like to invite you to have a meal with me today."

After hearing this, Tan Zhilin dispelled his doubts.

He looked at Lin Zizhu and said politely, "You've already apologized, so you don't have to treat me to a meal."

Seeing the other party's determined look, he looked at Wang Jia again and said, "Well, last time I borrowed Wang Jia's notes, I didn't have a chance to thank you properly."

"How about I treat you guys to dinner tonight?"

It also saves him from worrying about how to thank others.

After having a meal with Lin Zizhu, he also hoped that the girl would let go of this matter as soon as possible and not bring it up with him again in the future.

Jiang Tiantian and A Ku are now waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

The two girls heard this and did not object.

Wang Jia herself has a slight liking for Tan Zhilin.

Although this boy is not manly enough, he is very gentle and polite. Whenever he talks to someone, he will stare into the other person's eyes intently and is very sincere.

Moreover, he does not have those so-called bad habits of male chauvinists.

Wang Jia likes this kind of gentle man, especially such a capable and promising man.

Lin Zizhu came prepared and would not refuse.

The three of them, each with their own thoughts, came to a local restaurant where Lin Zizhu said she had reserved a seat in advance.

Wang Jia even joked, "Zizhu, I feel like you are more familiar with this place than I am, who has studied here for more than a year."

"I didn't realize before that there is such a hidden gem of a restaurant here."

Lin Zizhu said shyly, "Well, I also found out by asking a local in the store. Her family lives just across the street."

“They are the only ones who are most familiar with this kind of small restaurant that serves local home-style dishes.”

Wang Jia smiled and said, "I see. Thanks to you, Tan Zhilin and I will have a taste of their local home-cooked dishes today."

Since Tan Zhilin is now working in the catering industry, he is also very sensitive about food.

Hearing this, he was even more eager to try it. He called the waiter and started ordering dishes generously.

If it tastes good, maybe he can make some improvements and introduce some to their store later.

You can also send recipes to Erzhu to help him develop new dishes and accumulate inspiration.

"Brother Tan, you ordered too much. We can't finish it."

Lin Zizhu tried to snatch the menu from Tan Zhilin's hand and was about to touch Tan Zhilin's hand.

However, Wang Jia intervened and snatched the menu from Tan Zhilin's hand before she could.

"Don't order anymore, I've had enough."

Then he told the waiter, "Cancel the last five dishes."

Lin Zizhu was so angry that he almost grabbed Tan Zhilin's hand just now.

She just didn't believe that a pure man would not have any thoughts in his mind after touching her hand?

It's no wonder she brags. Lin Zizhu's hands are indeed as white and slender as peeled onion roots, and as soft as if they have no bones.

Plus she takes good care of herself.

There are few men who wouldn't like it.

Several times before, she had noticed Tan Zhilin staring at her hands in a trance...

Tan Zhilin was just thinking about tasting a few more dishes, but he didn't expect to order almost ten dishes in one go.

But he didn't need the money now, so he waved to the waiter and said, "You've already ordered, no need to cancel. We'll pack up the food you can't finish."

There are many wild cats in the alley. I heard that many of them are descendants of royal cats. He often takes some leftovers from the hot pot restaurant back to feed the cats.

A few of them had become familiar with him and would often wag their tails at him when they saw him.

So cute.

After hearing what he said, Wang Jia handed the menu to the waiter and said, "Thank you for your help."

At the same time, in my heart, I gave Tan Zhilin another extra point - he is generous.

The meal was very lively because of the two women's efforts to liven up the atmosphere.

The topic almost never stopped.

However, most of the time, it was Wang Jia who talked with Tan Zhilin about some professional issues.

Tan Zhilin has now taught himself up to the sophomore level, and is not much different from Wang Jia’s current level.

This made Wang Jia very surprised.

I didn't expect this man to study so hard, and I was even more satisfied with him.

So he observed Tan Zhilin quietly.

Lin Zizhu didn't have much say, but he helped the two of them serve the food and pour tea, and kept himself busy.

Moreover, intentionally or unintentionally, she showed her best side to Tan Zhilin.

I don’t know if Tan Zhilin received these signals.

Both women focused their attention on the only man present.

They didn't even notice the other person's little thoughts.

Time always passes quickly when we talk about topics of interest.

By the time the three of them had completely put down their teacups, it was already very late outside.

After paying the bill, Tan Zhilin asked the store owner for a bag and picked out some dishes that were still intact.

The two women didn't say anything about this.

After all, wasting food is wrong.

As the only man, seeing that it was getting late, it was basic etiquette for him to send the lady home.

So, Tan Zhilin suggested that the three of them send Wang Jia back to the school dormitory first.

He would send Lin Zizhu back to Tsinghua University. Anyway, it would be convenient for him to go back to Grandpa Qin's house with him.

Both women nodded in agreement.

Wang Jia made a mental note of Tan Zhilin again - he was very gentlemanly.

Downstairs in the female dormitory of the University of Finance and Economics, after watching Wang Jia go upstairs, Lin Zizhu said shyly,

"Brother Tan, will it delay you too much? Actually, it will be the same if I go back by myself."

Tan Zhilin shook his head. "It's okay. I was going home tonight anyway. It's just a detour. I'll take you back to National Tsing Hua University and then go back from there. It's only a few steps away. It won't be a problem."

"Thank you, Brother Tan. Let's go."
