"Linglong, your family members are here, so you don't have to go. We'll go."
But Linglong didn't want to miss this celebration. "Wait, I'll go talk to my wife first."
She trotted over to her husband. "Why are you here?"
"I'm not busy today, so I'll come pick you up."
"My roommates and I have decided to celebrate our successful defense, and I don't want to make an appointment."
"How about I treat you guys to a meal and take me along?" It wasn't easy for him to come and pick up his wife, and he didn't want to leave in disgrace.
Linglong hesitated for a moment. "Well, okay."
She quickly ran back to tell her roommates.
When the roommates knew that Zheng Tiansen was going to treat them, none of them had any objections and they were all quite happy.
Since everyone had no objection, Linglong naturally brought her family along.
Besides, Zheng Tiansen drove a car, so it was convenient for them to go there for dinner.
There are six people in Linglong's dormitory.
Although Zheng Tiansen drove here by himself, there were still four seats left according to the car's maximum capacity.
However, there are no strict traffic regulations at this time.
They just squeezed together.
It was a little more compact and spacious, and I sat alone in the passenger seat.
The other five roommates squeezed into the back seat of the car.
Fortunately, there was no fat person among them and the jeep was relatively large.
As soon as they got in the car, Zheng Tiansen asked, "Have you discussed what to eat?"
"Not really. We were planning to think about it as we walked." Linglong replied.
"Well, I know there's a restaurant that opened recently. It's said to be very good. Do you want to try it?"
"This is the hotel. I'm fine. How about you guys?" Linglong turned her head to look at the people in the back seat.
They weren't going to pay originally, as Zheng Tiansen was treating them.
Now that they knew it was a restaurant, they were all quite surprised. No one had any objections and they all nodded in agreement.
After reaching a consensus, Linglong looked at her husband curiously.
"You've been in the army almost every day. How did you know that?"
"I heard it from others."
Although their army camp is on the outskirts of the city, it is on the edge of the capital after all. If there is a chance to go to the city, everyone will go.
In particular, you will proactively discover buildings and shops that did not exist before.
He had taken the initiative to pick up his wife this time, intending to take her to a restaurant she had never been to before.
Now the only thing is that the dining queue has expanded a little.
"By the way, if we go out to eat, we'll be late to go home. What should Congcong do?"
"I told Xiao Li that if we can't make it back in time, he will go and pick up Congcong."
"Then I won't worry."
Although he was driving, Zheng Tiansen turned his head and smiled gently at his wife.
Although the two of them didn't say any sweet words, just the simple conversation and these little actions made the people behind them eat enough dog food.
A few people didn't discuss, but kept making faces at each other.
There weren't many cars on the streets of Beijing in 1982, and unless it was rush hour, there weren't many cyclists out, so they had a smooth journey.
Soon, we arrived at the restaurant.
There was a parking space outside the hotel. The car stopped and several people got out.
Looking at the restaurant, which was so large in both decoration and scale, Zhou Manman and the others felt a little uncomfortable.
“Will it be expensive to eat here?”
Before Zheng Tiansen could say anything, Linglong laughed first.
"We're all about to graduate, and my husband is rarely free to treat you to a meal. Sisters, please give me some face."
Everyone was amused.
Thinking that Zheng Tiansen's family background was not bad and it shouldn't be too stressful to treat him to such a meal, he walked in boldly.
As soon as we entered, we were warmly greeted by a waiter.
This was a unique experience for Zhou Manman and the others.
After all, when they ate out before, they basically went to state-owned restaurants. The staff here were not only enthusiastic, but also considered good if they had some attitude.
Zheng Tiansen and Linglong are still a couple.
Zheng Tiansen's emotions rarely fluctuate at any time, while Linglong has seen a lot of this in her previous life.
There were many of them and Zheng Tiansen knew there were private rooms, so he asked for one.
As soon as they sat down, the waiter started pouring tea and brought them menus.
Since her husband was treating, Linglong naturally handed the menu to her roommates and asked them to order first.
"Don't be shy, just order whatever you want."
Anyway, if her husband doesn't bring enough money, she is still here.
Ever since she opened the clothing store, she has received a lot of cash every month, and the amount of cash in her wallet has never been less.
Even though Linglong said so, Zhou Manman and the others discussed with each other and finally ordered one dish each.
Since they didn't order, Linglong had no choice but to take the menu and look at it herself.
She was familiar with her husband's taste, so she just asked him a few questions in a low voice and made all the decisions herself.
In addition to the five dishes ordered by Zhou Manman, Linglong added five more dishes, a soup, and a dessert.
The few dishes added are basically all big dishes.
There were seven of them, so it was definitely enough food.
Even if it’s not enough, you can always add more.
They talked for a while and then the dishes they ordered started to arrive one after another very quickly.
At first, because Zheng Tiansen was present, Zhou Manman and the others were a little reserved, but gradually they relaxed.
The food here is not cheap, but the prices are worth it and the taste is good.
Linglong didn't order any alcohol, but ordered some drinks.
They ate and chatted, always talking about interesting things, and the atmosphere was always very lively.
Zheng Tiansen seldom spoke, but just listened to them quietly. He was always considerate and picked up dishes and served soup to Linglong.
Although these actions may seem insignificant, they all reveal his consideration and care for his wife Linglong.
This made Zhou Manman and the others envious.
Even those who already have a partner would privately compare their partner with Zheng Tiansen and feel that their partner is not as considerate as Zheng Tiansen.
After the meal, Zheng Tiansen drove Zhou Manman and others back to school before taking his wife home.
At the school gate, Zhou Manman and the others started talking as they watched the car drive away.
"Linglong is so happy."
"If my future husband could be half as good as Linglong's lover, I would be so happy."
“They are really a good match.”
"Who says it isn't?"
"She's so pretty, only someone like her lover is worthy of her."
"Ah, it's another day of envying others and longing for love."
"You, you just say you're envious, but you didn't even bother finding someone when I asked you to. It's not like no one is pursuing you. Now we're all about to graduate, it's too late for you to regret it."
This gloating tone also made them start fighting quickly.
We walked towards the dormitory while playing and laughing, and the atmosphere was indescribably joyful.
In the car, the man who had been worried about the presence of outsiders and was reluctant to show intimacy with his wife, drove with one hand and held Linglong's hand tightly with the other.
Linglong didn't struggle. Looking at their clasped hands, the corners of her mouth curled up.
