tasty
Xu Xi stood beside the breakfast table, looking down at Chen Shuning, trying hard to suppress the admiration and excitement in her heart.
It turns out she can reject someone so directly and clearly, without dragging her feet. That's great! If she had just acted like that, the salesperson would have stuck with her.
She couldn't help but let out a faint smile.
When Chen Shuning raised his eyes and met hers, his cold and decisive demeanor had faded, leaving only intimacy and gentleness. She asked Xu Xi, "What do you want to eat? I'll treat you."
Invite her to eat?
Xu Xi subconsciously wanted to refuse, but then she thought, Chen Shuning treated her once, so she would have a reason to treat her back next time. Reciprocity is the norm, and only when there's give and take can there be a connection, and only when there's a connection can there be a chance to pursue someone.
So, Xu Xi didn't refuse and responded with a smile. "Then I'll do the same as you and eat noodles."
Chen Shuning turned around and asked the boss for another bowl of clear soup noodles.
Xu Xi sat down across from Chen Shuning, feeling both nervous and happy. However, she didn't know what to say. So she looked around the store, looking around to make herself look busy, and used this time to think about what she should talk about with Chen Shuning.
Since we were eating now, why not talk about Chen Shuning's favorite food? Xu Xi thought for a second and was about to speak.
Then, she heard Chen Shuning say to her, "There are free cold dishes over there. Do you like cold dishes? Do you want to get some to try?"
Xu Xi blinked, momentarily forgetting what she was about to say. She looked at Chen Shuning. "Oh, okay."
She looked in the direction Chen Shuning pointed, stood up, and was about to turn around to get the cold dishes when she remembered that Chen Shuning didn't bring any side dishes, so she asked casually.
"What about you? Do you want to eat? Should I get some more?"
Chen Shuning raised his eyes. "Okay."
Xu Xi walked towards the side where the cold dishes were placed. She was surprised to find that there were more than 10 kinds of cold dishes. There were small plates and tongs on the side so she could pick up whatever she wanted.
Because she wanted to get some cold dishes for Chen Shuning, Xu Xi reached out and took two plates. But after she finished picking up one cold dish, she suddenly felt that one plate seemed to hold quite a lot, and the cold dishes on one plate were enough for two people.
Xu Xi pursed his lips and secretly turned his head to look in Chen Shuning's direction. Then, he put the other plate back to its original place, using only one plate for the cold dishes.
When Xu Xi returned to her seat with the cold dishes, her bowl of noodles was already on the table. She placed the cold dishes in the middle of the table and told Chen Shuning, "I don't know which one you like, so I took a little bit of everything."
Chen Shuning smiled faintly. "It's all right. I'm not picky about food, and I don't have any dietary restrictions."
I am not picky about food and have no dietary restrictions.
Xu Xi listened to what Chen Shuning said and silently took note of it in her heart. She always remembered what was said in the "Goddess Chasing Manual" and understood the goddess's hobbies. It's good that she's not picky about food. Then she can prepare whatever food she wants for her in the future.
And, more importantly, she wasn't picky about food and didn't have any dietary restrictions. Another similarity, they were truly destined to be together, weren't they? Xu Xi secretly beamed with joy.
Xu Xi: "It's good not to be picky about food. I'm not picky about food either."
Chen Shuning: "Try it."
Xu Xi picked up her chopsticks and took a few bites of the clear soup noodles, then took a few bites of the cold dishes, both of which were delicious. She didn't know if it was because she was eating with someone she loved, but Xu Xi felt that the food she ate this time was particularly delicious, and every bite was delicious.
Halfway through the meal, Chen Shuning suddenly asked her, "How do you feel? Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious." Xu Xi nodded repeatedly. After she finished speaking, she remembered what she had just said. She saw this restaurant here last night, so she thought of coming here to try it. She didn't expect that she could polish up her lie at this time.
She added with a smile, "Looks like I made the right decision to come and try this place this morning."
Chen Shuning chuckled, but she was silent for two seconds before speaking. "If you like, you can come over and eat whenever you have time. I can treat you anytime."
Xu Xi was stunned. Treat her to a meal anytime? Did she hear it right?
The question flashed through her mind, but she quickly came to her senses. This was probably just a polite remark. Unless she liked someone, just like she liked Chen Shuning, and asked her to treat Chen Shuning to food for the rest of his life, she would be willing to do so. Otherwise, who would be willing to treat another person to food at any time?
Chen Shuning doesn't...
Xu Xi suddenly stopped when she thought of this.
Wait, she didn’t know whether Chen Shuning liked her or not.
Could it be that Chen Shuning also likes her? Otherwise, why would she be willing to treat herself to a meal anytime?
Just as Xu Xi was wondering about this, she heard Chen Shuning add, "Is this payment for me to ask you to help me with the drawings at any time?"
???
Xu Xi blinked, feeling somewhat disappointed. Was she overthinking this? It was just a reward…
