Ellie shook her head, defending herself.
"No, I was just guessing."
Su Luo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and made a promise.
"Okay, if this kind of situation happens again in the future, you can come to me, and I will definitely stand up for you."
"Uh-huh."
Ellie's eyes shone even brighter, as if they held stars.
After Su Luo finished applying the medicine to Ellie, he started the car again and drove to the hot pot restaurant.
Not long after.
We arrived at our destination.
It was lunchtime, and the hot pot restaurant was packed with people. There were no good seats left, so Su Luo asked Ellie if she wanted to go somewhere else.
Ellie shook her head, her attitude very firm.
Su Luo had no choice but to sit with her in the very corner.
At this moment, the waiter brought the menu, and Su Luo asked the waiter to hand the dishes to Ellie so that she could order whatever she wanted.
Ellie refused, saying, "It's my treat today, so of course you get to choose!"
"Oh right, okay, I'll choose."
Su Luo almost forgot that Ellie had invited her to dinner to express her gratitude, and smiled as she accepted the menu.
"Then..."
Su Luo was interrupted by the waiter as soon as she opened her mouth, who smiled and said to her.
"Sir, we have a special couple's set meal available today. It's a great deal and comes with a bunny mousse. Would you like to consider it?"
Although the two didn't do anything overtly intimate, they must be a couple; they look very well-matched.
One is a stunningly handsome, mature older brother in a suit, and the other is a blonde, cute girl in a JK uniform.
Ellie's face flushed instantly upon hearing this.
How embarrassing!
What's wrong with that waitress's eyes? She and Su Luo are 14 years apart in age, how come they look like a couple?
Strangely, along with the embarrassment, there was also a strange sense of excitement.
Su Luo was also extremely embarrassed. She coughed lightly and explained to the waiter.
"We are not a couple."
The waiter hurriedly apologized.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood. You two are such a perfect match, I thought you were a couple."
Su Luo immediately ordered food.
"I want beef rolls, lamb rolls, shrimp paste, egg dumplings, prawns, fried dough sticks, konjac noodles, bamboo shoots... and two glasses of chilled orange juice."
"OK."
The waiter quickly made a note of it.
Ellie across from them stared in astonishment, her eyes wide.
"?!?!"
Isn't this her favorite food? Su Luo actually memorized it perfectly, without missing a single one.
Waaah.
I'm so touched, I feel like crying, what should I do?
After all these years, he still remembers his tastes so clearly.
This clearly shows that he has not forgotten himself, but why hasn't he found himself?
No, even if he hadn't forgotten her, the thought of him and Ye Xiaoman being all lovey-dovey made her furious.
Perhaps this has always been her problem: if she is not doing well herself, she doesn't want others to be doing well either.
He himself was in the abyss, and he wanted to drag Sulo down to hell as well.
And she's come to like this feeling, she likes him treating her like a stranger.
Su Luo put down the menu and noticed that Ellie's expression was off. She asked with concern.
"What's wrong? Does your face still hurt?"
Ellie raised her hand to rub her slightly sore eyes and said casually.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something that made me unhappy."
Su Luo suddenly felt a mental block and didn't know what to say.
Asking seems a bit inappropriate, since they've only known each other for a few days, but not asking also seems wrong, as it would make me seem too cold.
Fortunately, Ellie quickly composed herself and changed the subject by smiling and chatting with Su Luo about other things.
Soon after, the hot pot ingredients were served.
Su Luo gentlemanly helped Ellie put the meat in the pot, and then urged her to take it out at just the right time to eat it quickly, otherwise it wouldn't taste good if it got cold.
Ellie picked up two slices of beef, dipped them in the sauce, and then put them in her mouth, chewing them slowly.
It tastes just like I remember. It's so delicious, I could cry.
The five years she spent abroad were absolutely inhuman.
My mother's tastes have long been assimilated by the locals; she eats proper Western food, and even the family's nanny can't cook Chinese food.
She would starve to death if she didn't eat, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and eat.
Ellie began to wolf down her food without any regard for her image.
The gruesome scene terrified Su Luo. This child was truly hungry, as if he had never seen food before.
Ellie stopped Su Luo, swallowed the meat in her mouth with a gulp, and asked in confusion.
"Why aren't you eating? It's so delicious!"
Su Luo said with a smile.
"It's delicious. I was distracted because you were eating so heartily."
Ellie laughed sheepishly, “(づ??????)づ”
It was a genuine laugh, so adorable.
Su Luo's appetite was further disrupted by Ellie's smile, and she started thinking about Nini again. If Nini were still by her side, she would probably have the same happy smile.
I wonder if she's doing well abroad?
Is her biological mother reliable or not? Will she really take good care of Nini?
Forget it, he should eat properly now.
Su Luo picked up the plate full of mutton dipped in seasoning and angrily shoveled the meat into his mouth with his chopsticks.
When they were almost finished eating, Su Luo looked at Ellie and asked curiously.
"By the way, I don't know why you became an actor?"
During the interview, because Ellie's appearance was so close to the original character and her acting was impeccable, he didn't ask any questions.
It was written on her resume.
