After they sat down and chatted for a few minutes, the housekeeper, Uncle Zhang, came over from the restaurant and said with a smile, "Sir, Madam, Miss, and Son-in-law, dinner is ready."
"Okay," Ji Jingwen turned around and responded, took the orange juice from He Mozhao's hand and put it on the coffee table, then pulled He Mozhao up, "Zhaozhao, drink the orange juice later, let's eat first. A batch of hairy crabs just arrived today, I think they are good, so I asked Aunt Zhang to make your favorite spicy crabs."
Spicy crab?!
He Mozhao's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt that today was a really good day. Not only did he successfully make a dinner appointment with his dining partner, but he could also drink his favorite orange juice, and now there was even spicy crab!
Saliva welled up in his mouth, and He Mozhao couldn't wait to walk towards the restaurant. After everyone was seated, he looked at the empty seat across from him and suddenly realized that Baili Hanming hadn't returned yet. He Mozhao suppressed the urge to pick up his chopsticks and sat quietly, his clear peach blossom eyes staring unblinkingly at the spicy crab in front of him.
"?" Ji Jingwen noticed He Mozhao hadn't touched his chopsticks as soon as she sat down. She was puzzled for a moment, "Why isn't Zhaozhao eating? Is there something wrong?"
He Mozhao heard the question, looked up at Ji Jingwen, and shook his head, "Brother hasn't come back yet"
Oh, and I have a son...
Ji Jingwen touched her nose and said with a wry smile, "Xiaoming should be here soon, no need to wait for him. Zhaozhao must be hungry after a tiring day, it's okay for us to eat first."
Baili Hanming, who had just arrived at the restaurant door but was ignored by his mother, paused and looked at He Mozhao deeply. He saw that he had noticed him come in and his eyes were urging him to sit down quickly so that he could start eating his favorite spicy crab.
As soon as Baili Hanming sat down, Baili Xiao, who was sitting at the main seat, said, "Let's eat."
As soon as he finished speaking, He Mozhao stretched out his claws with chopsticks towards the spicy crab in front of him, picked up a piece of crab meat and put it into his mouth.
The spicy flavor and the fragrant crab aroma exploded in the mouth. Aside from the crab shell being a bit of an obstacle and not being able to chew and swallow it directly, this dish was simply perfect! He Mozhao smiled and ate happily.
However, this happiness did not last long. When He Mozhao was about to grab the spicy crab for the fifth time, a slender hand held down He Mozhao. A cold voice with pressure said, "Baby, crab meat is cold, and this is spicy. Your stomach can't stand it. Don't eat anymore."
"..." He Mozhao looked at the crab meat in front of him, then at Baili Xiyao. Finally, with his fair and tender cheeks puffed out, he turned around and picked up the dish beside him. His empty hand pushed the spicy crab a little further away, "Then Xixi, take it a little further away, otherwise I can't help it..."
"Okay," Baili Xiyao directly handed the plate of spicy crab to the maid standing aside, "Take it away."
"Yes," the maid took the spicy crab and turned to leave.
Ji Jingwen, who was about to speak to He Mozhao, was frightened back by Baili Xiyao's eyes. She lowered her head and ate the food in her bowl silently, not daring to speak to comfort He Mozhao.
What no one noticed was that when the dish of spicy crab was taken away, one person's eyes followed it until the dish completely disappeared from the restaurant.
Happy weekends always pass by in a flash. I always feel that before I can enjoy the joy of the weekend, the annoying Monday has quietly arrived...
But He Mozhao really likes this week, because he is spoiled and spoiled. He wants to indulge himself and eat hot pot with his friends! !
But there is a problem. How to get Baili Xiyao to let me go out to eat alone? It is a very difficult problem.
What excuse could be both natural and effective... He Mozhao poked at the location of the hot pot restaurant sent by Yunjifan's partner in the short video app and scratched his head.
"Baby," Baili Xiyao's voice sounded behind him.
"Hmm?" He Mozhao turned to look at her.
"I can't have dinner with you tonight, baby. There's a newly opened shopping mall and I have to go there in person to inspect it and see if there's any room for improvement. The place is a bit far and I might be busy until quite late, so baby, can you eat at home tonight? I'll order food for you," Baili Xiyao's tone contained a hint of apology and regret.
Luck came unexpectedly!
Hmm! I decided to start liking Mondays from now on!!
Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, He Mozhao pursed his lips, fearing that he would not be able to hold back his laughter. He wanted to respond with his back to Baili Xiyao, but he was afraid that if he didn't look at him, Baili Xiyao would mistakenly think that he was unhappy, and would then put down his work to accompany him. Wouldn't this luck be ruined then?
"It's okay, it's just a meal, I can handle it myself! Xixi is busy with her own things, don't worry about me, I can order food myself!"
"?", there is no sobbing?
Baili Xiyao was about to speak when the intercom on the table rang, "Hello... OK, I got it. Prepare the car, I'll be down in a moment."
After Baili Xiyao hung up the phone, she sorted out the documents on the desk, stood up and walked to He Mozhao who was still looking at her. She leaned over and kissed He Mozhao across the back of the sofa, "Be good, I'll bring you a midnight snack tonight."
"Hmm..." He Mozhao responded softly with a red face.
An hour after Baili Xiyao left, He Mozhao looked at the time. It was almost 5 p.m., so it should be just the right time to set off.
He Mozhao touched his stomach, which was a little hungry as he had not eaten much at noon, and drove to MY Hot Pot Restaurant in Nancheng.
After parking the car in the basement, it was already 17:50. The cell phone rang at the right time. It was a message from his dinner partner. He Mozhao opened it and took a look.
[Yunji Fandaizi]: I just arrived. When you arrive, just come to Box 1.
