Chapter 249 Song Weidong's Treat
Song Weidong was a little happy when he saw that Su Xiaoxiao's bicycle was accidentally locked by someone.
He thought that he could give her a ride and let her sit in the back seat, and it would be best if they could go over a bump or down a slope, so that they could have physical contact naturally.
Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoxiao did not play by the rules at all and insisted on walking.
Okay, let’s just walk and we can spend some more time together, Song Weidong felt happy again thinking about it.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him, trying hard to suppress the uncontrollable upward curl of his mouth, and his face showed the expression of an old man looking at his phone on the subway.
ill!
The two of them went all the way to the state-owned hotel. They arrived quite early, so there weren't many people in the hotel.
Song Weidong had already booked a private room and took Su Xiaoxiao straight to the second floor.
Su Xiaoxiao originally thought that this time, like before, the two would just have a casual meal in the lobby, but she didn't expect Song Weidong to make it so formal.
When they were alone in a room, she realized that she was feeling a little uncomfortable.
"Comrade Song, there's no need to be so wasteful when it's just the two of us having a meal, right?"
Restaurants at that time were not like they are now, and it was really difficult to book a private room without some status.
"It's more convenient this way."
Song Weidong smiled, and as he finished speaking, the door of the private room was pushed open by the waiter.
The dishes must have been ordered by him in advance, so they were served very quickly.
There were only two of them, but Song Weidong ordered a table full of dishes.
There are Su Xiaoxiao's favorite crispy pork, fish-flavored eggplant, fried radish meatballs, as well as braised spare ribs and sweet and sour fish.
She was shocked. Was Song Weidong celebrating the New Year? Even the Su family had never had such a sumptuous meal during the Spring Festival.
Looking at the table full of dishes, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Song, there's no need to order so much for just the two of us, right?"
Most people these days are frugal and generally order just the right amount of food. They rarely order such a large table.
Song Weidong's cheeks flushed slightly: "It's okay, you can pack up the leftovers."
Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, he is indeed a rich man. Even though she is well off now, she is reluctant to spend it like this. After all, it was all earned by her hard work.
Song Weidong diligently put a piece of crispy meat into Su Xiaoxiao's bowl: "Comrade Su, try this, it tastes quite good."
Seeing that he was using serving chopsticks, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but look at him twice more.
When he was in school, Song Weidong always looked nonchalant, but I didn't expect that he actually had such a gentlemanly side.
In this era, people still don’t have the awareness of using public chopsticks, just like her grandmother, Comrade Wang Chunhua.
I remember that when she was a child, every time the whole family had a meal, she liked to rinse the chopsticks in her mouth twice, and then use the saliva-soaked chopsticks to pick up food for her precious grandchildren.
Every time that happened, Su Xiaoxiao felt extremely grateful that Comrade Wang Chunhua was patriarchal and never picked food for her.
Su Xiaoxiao picked up the crispy meat from the bowl and put it into her mouth. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was indeed delicious.
The food of that era was made with genuine ingredients, even the pork was not the fast-food pork that is bred with hormones like today, which tastes neither fragrant nor meaty.
She didn't have a big appetite and was full in a short while. Looking at the table full of delicious dishes, she sighed that her stomach was too small and it was a pity to waste so many delicious dishes.
Touching her round belly, she picked up the bowl of soup in front of her and just took a sip when she heard Song Weidong calling her from the opposite side.
"Comrade Su."
Su Xiaoxiao looked up with a mouthful of soup in her mouth and met Song Weidong's slightly flushed face.
His skin was now a healthy wheat color, but his face was so red that Su Xiaoxiao could still tell the difference at a glance.
In her stunned eyes, Song Weidong suddenly said: "Comrade Su, I like you, can you consider me..."
Before she could finish her words, the soup in Su Xiaoxiao's mouth spurted out, right on Song Weidong's face.
Song Weidong wiped his face, not caring at all. He thought that since he had already spoken, he might as well say it all in one go.
He originally wanted to wait until the social gathering to express his feelings, but now he can't wait any longer.
There is no shortage of young and handsome comrades in the army. If Su Xiaoxiao falls in love with other men, he will have nowhere to cry.
Just as he was about to continue speaking, the door was pushed open again and the waiter came to serve the food.
When Su Xiaoxiao saw a stranger coming, she was afraid that he would say something again, so she hurriedly picked up the steamed bun on the table and stuffed it into Song Weidong's mouth.
"Comrade Song, eat your steamed buns. If you don't eat them now, they'll get cold."
Song Weidong had his mouth stuffed with a steamed bun, and he choked so hard that he rolled his eyes. It took him a lot of effort to swallow the bun in his mouth.
He looked at Su Xiaoxiao with resentment.
Su Xiaoxiao felt a little guilty when he looked at her: "The ancients said that one should establish a career first and then start a family. I just want to work hard and make money now, and I can think about other things later."
Afraid he'd overthink it, she added, "The college entrance exams are about to resume, and I have to work and prepare for the exams. I really don't have the time to think about anything else. Comrade Song, you're so good-looking and talented, there must be a lot of female comrades who like you. There's no need to hang yourself on this crooked tree..."
Before she finished speaking, Song Weidong's eyes lit up again, staring at her with a piercing gaze: "Comrade Su, are you rejecting me now because you want to take the college entrance examination?"
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Yes."
Song Weidong's heart, which had just sank, suddenly became elated again: "Okay, then I'll wait until you finish the exam."
Su Xiaoxiao: “…”
That's not what she meant.
Forget it, since she was the one who benefited from it, she couldn't say anything too heartless. She could only think to herself that she would wait for an opportunity to explain it clearly.
Thinking of the watch Song Weidong gave her, she became even more breathless.
"Comrade Song, when is your birthday?"
Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself that when Song Weidong’s birthday comes, it will be a good time to return the favor.
The watch was so valuable that she felt bad not to return the gift, but she didn't have the confidence to refuse.
When he heard her ask about his birthday, Song Weidong's smile became even brighter.
"Comrade Su, are you planning to give me a birthday present?"
Su Xiaoxiao nodded when she heard this. She did have this plan.
Song Weidong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he felt as if countless brilliant fireworks were blooming before his eyes.
He knew that Comrade Su must be interested in him, and that he rejected him earlier probably because he was too shy.
Otherwise, why would I take the initiative to give him a birthday present?
In less than two seconds, Song Weidong had coaxed himself into submission.
He looked at Su Xiaoxiao with a smile, his eyes tender and affectionate: "The twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month."
Su Xiaoxiao roughly calculated the time. Aren’t there only a few days left?
Just as I was thinking about what gift to give to repay the favor of the watch, I heard Song Weidong speak with a little nervousness.
