Dinner was eaten out. Wen Yixing had bought groceries on the way and planned to cook at home, but the upstairs neighbors had been doing renovations since the afternoon, making a lot of noise and which was very annoying.
Fang Jingyao couldn't stay at home any longer and told Wen Yixing that he wanted to go out to eat.
The noise upstairs was indeed too loud, and Wen Yixing also found it annoying. After discussing it with Shen Jingshao, they decided to go to the night market not far away for barbecue.
Barbecue stalls are especially crowded in the summer, bustling with activity, and people eat at tables outdoors.
Shen Jingshao's attire was somewhat out of place among the people here, but fortunately it was nighttime and there were many people around, so few people would pay attention to them.
Wen Yixing rarely takes Fang Jingyao out for barbecue because Fang Jingyao had a sensitive stomach when he was a child and would vomit every time he ate.
But Fang Jingyao actually really likes barbecue. In his previous life, when he was in high school, he would often sneak out at night with his friends to eat barbecue and drink beer. He could drink half a case of beer by himself.
But drinking beer is simply out of the question at his age, so Fang Jingyao quietly ordered four bottles of Wahaha.
This barbecue restaurant has a great reputation and is almost always full. Wen Yixing ordered the dishes and then handed the menu to Shen Jingshao: "Take a look, is there anything else you want to eat?"
Shen Jingshao glanced at them and said, "These will suffice."
Wen Yixing handed the order to the waiter, then looked at Shen Jingshao and asked in a low voice, "Won't you like the food?"
Shen Jingshao was surprised by her question. He paused for a moment and replied, "No, I used to eat it often."
“There used to be a barbecue stall next to my house. Sometimes when they were too busy at night, I would go and help out. I can not only eat, but I can also grill.”
Shen Jingshao had already guessed what she was thinking. He bent down to wipe the chopsticks for her and whispered, "I'm not as delicate as him."
It took Wen Yixing two seconds to realize who the "he" Shen Jingshao was referring to was. Wen Yixing smiled and said, "Indeed, you are better than him."
Shen Jingshao placed the cleaned chopsticks in front of her and looked at her: "Really?"
Wen Yixing nodded: "Really, really."
It was too noisy around him, and Fang Jingyao tried to crane his neck to eavesdrop, but he couldn't hear anything.
boring!
Fang Jingyao silently took out his small phone and started playing a match-3 game.
Before many dishes had been served, Wen Yixing's phone vibrated.
Wen Yixing glanced at it and picked up her phone.
Shen Jingshao and Fang Jingyao looked over together.
Wen Yixing: "It was a video call from my father."
Fang Jingyao happily moved closer to Wen Yixing: "Is that your maternal grandfather?"
Wen Yixing: "Yes."
After saying that, Wen Yixing pressed the answer button, and Fang Jingyao called out in a clear voice, "Grandpa!"
Wen Jianguo laughed on the other end of the line: "Yaoyao! Have you eaten?"
Fang Jingyao: "I'm eating now. Has Grandpa eaten yet?"
Wen Jianguo pointed the camera at the table: "Are you ready to eat? Did Yao Yao eat out?"
Fang Jingyao nodded: "Mm!"
The grandfather and grandson, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, chatted and laughed for a while. When Wen Yixing saw that the dishes were served, she said, "Yaoyao, why don't you eat with your uncle first and give the phone to your mother, okay?"
Fang Jingyao obediently returned the phone to Wen Yixing. Wen Yixing glanced at Shen Jingshao, indicating that she wanted Shen Jingshao to keep an eye on the child.
Shen Jingshao: "Don't worry."
Wen Yixing got up and found a quiet place to talk to her father.
Wen Yixing has been sending a lot of things home these days, and her father's complexion is noticeably rosier than before.
Wen Yixing chatted with her father for a while, and when they were almost done talking, her father finally asked, "I heard from Xiaochen that you've started dating someone new?"
There's nothing to hide, Wen Yixing nodded: "Mm."
Wen Jianguo was quite happy, saying, "It's good that you've made it through."
"By the way, what's your boyfriend's name, and what does he do?"
Wen Yixing: "His name is Shen Jingshao, and he owns his own company."
Wen Jianguo smiled and said, "Okay, when will you bring it home so we can see it?"
Wen Yixing paused for a few seconds, then said, "Okay."
Wen Jianguo: "Take good care of yourself while you're away, eat more, and don't always try to lose weight."
Wen Yixing smiled and said, "Yes, I know, you too. I'll go back to my hometown with Yao Yao to see you in a few days."
Wen Jianguo: "Haha, okay, the watermelons at home are ripe, big and sweet, waiting for you to come back and pick them!"
After hanging up the phone, Wen Yixing went back.
The dishes were almost all served, and Fang Jingyao was enjoying a lamb skewer with relish, with the female proprietress of the shop standing next to him.
The proprietress took a liking to the little guy, chatted with him for a few minutes, and even gave Fang Jingyao an extra bottle of Wahaha.
Fang Jingyao didn't stand on ceremony and accepted it, saying crisply, "Thank you, Auntie!"
The proprietress smiled and said, "The little boy is so cute."
Just then, Wen Yixing walked over. The proprietress glanced at her a few times and said with a smile, "She looks just like her mother!"
Wen Yixing smiled and nodded at the proprietress.
The proprietress sensed someone watching her. She looked down at Shen Jingshao, who was sitting next to Wen Yixing, but only glanced at him briefly and didn't see him clearly. However, this didn't stop her from saying, "The little boy looks just like his father!"
The proprietress sighed, "You three are all so good-looking."
Wen Yixing remained silent for a moment, but did not correct the small mistake.
Fang Jingyao kept his head down, eating his meat skewers, pretending not to hear.
Only Shen Jingshao lowered his eyes and smiled at Wen Yixing, placing the freshly peeled shrimp meat in her bowl. Then he looked at the proprietress and said, "Thank you, your lamb skewers are delicious."
