"Eat together?"
Yan Qing seemed very excited after hearing what Lu Bolu said. At an angle where Zhang Yaoxi and the others couldn't see, she tugged at Huo Beiting's sleeve with a small movement.
She was asking for his permission.
Lu Bolu held his girlfriend with one hand and said with a smile: "Yes, Yaoxi was confused and slipped down and bumped into you. We were both very embarrassed..."
As he said this, he scratched his head.
"You guys should just come with us. Country D is so big, it's such a coincidence to meet Chinese people in a small northern town." Zhang Yaoxi agreed, as if she was afraid they wouldn't agree. She was extremely enthusiastic. "We'll be staying in a nearby B&B. If you don't mind, you can come to our room for hot pot!"
Yan Qing originally wanted to go with these two people, and when he heard they suggested eating hot pot, he was even more excited.
"Beiting?"
"I understand." Seeing her acting so coquettishly, Huo Beiting patted her head gently as if to comfort her. Then he turned and said to Lu Bolu, "However, finding a Chinese restaurant to eat hot pot in this area is really... a bit difficult."
Huo Beiting's words were not an excuse.
There are many Chinatowns in Country D, but not many in small towns in the north.
He had someone prepare the ski equipment many days in advance, and Xue Chen even laughed at him for preparing it too early.
"It's okay, it's okay." Lu Bolu smiled and waved his hand, "Yaoxi just loves hot pot... I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, she brought a lot of hot pot base..."
After saying that, Zhang Yaoxi felt a little embarrassed and hit him hard on the back, which made Yan Qing couldn't help laughing.
When young people get together, they have a lot of common topics.
The four of them talked about how coincidentally they were staying in the same B&B, which made them feel that their acquaintance was truly fate.
On the way back, Zhang Yaoxi and Yan Qing walked hand in hand in front, while Lu Bolu and Huo Beiting followed behind, resigned to their fate, each dragging their own aunt's ski equipment.
They chirped like two little sparrows jumping on the branches, and the men behind them couldn't hide their doting smiles.
Along the way, the topics of conversation ranged from their respective careers to currently popular TV series. Yan Qing was pleasantly surprised to find that although Zhang Yaoxi was still in school, they had countless common topics!
She liked this lively and generous girl more and more, and she wanted to become her sworn brother...
No, girls should be sworn sisters, right?
"Qingqing, your boyfriend is really nice to you, unlike Lu Bolu!"
Zhang Yaoxi hugged Yan Qing's arm, and complained in a low voice, afraid that her boyfriend behind her would hear her.
Lu Bolu didn't like to get angry, but who doesn't like being compared to others? But she just felt that Huo Beiting doted on Yan Qing too much, and she was simply envious.
Yan Qing knew she had no other intentions and pinched her nose: "Come on, Bo Lu is so good to you, don't be ungrateful!"
They had similar personalities and both knew there was no other implication or sarcasm in the other's words, so they smiled at each other.
Soon, the four of them were in the warm room and took off their heavy cotton clothes.
"You guys go back and pack up first. We're at 1808. Just come find us when you're done."
In front of the elevator, Lu Bolu waved at them, indicating that Yan Qing and the others should go first.
It was already inconvenient for Huo Beiting to drag two sets of ski equipment, so of course he had to go back. Since Lu Bolu took the initiative to say it, he just nodded silently and left with Yan Qing.
"Are you particularly happy to meet Zhang Yaoxi and the others?"
"Of course, Beiting, you don't know how difficult it is to meet compatriots in Country D!"
Yan Qing made a rare playful and exaggerated "crying" expression, but she couldn't hide the joy on the corner of her mouth.
Huo Beiting was amused by her and was about to say something when the elevator arrived at their floor.
As soon as he came out of the elevator, Yan Qing suddenly stopped him and stopped him from going any further.
Fortunately, it is the off-season for tourism in the northern town, and there are not many guests in the B&B. Even if two people are blocking the elevator, they do not prevent anyone from using public facilities.
"Why don't you leave? It's warmer in the room than here."
Huo Beiting knew that Yan Qing was frozen and said this on purpose.
She pursed her lips, tugged at her light pink ski gear in his right hand, and muttered, "Give me the stuff, I'll carry it myself."
"We're almost at the door of the room, what are you talking about?"
Huo Beiting was completely confused. Even as smart as he was, he couldn't understand what his little woman was thinking.
Yan Qing pulled twice but failed to get the equipment into his arms. He became anxious: "Of course I will hold it myself, and then you have your hands free, free your hands..."
Her earlobes were slightly red, but not easily noticeable.
Huo Beiting reacted immediately: "Free up my hands so I can hold yours, right?"
Yan Qing nodded in acknowledgment.
"Ah... Qingqing, you little childish ghost."
He smiled brightly, carried all the things with one hand, and immediately freed his hand to hold her little hand.
Yan Qing didn't feel comfortable saying it when Zhang Yaoxi and the others were there. But now that she brought it up, Huo Beiting cooperated readily, and her face turned completely red.
Yan Qing's rosy little face looked like a tomato that had just ripened.
Not minding Huo Beiting's hand being soaked in the warmth of the northern town, Yan Qing held the other's hand tightly and never wanted to let go in this life.
"You are childish."
She muttered a retort under her breath, but it had no killing power. Instead, it made the doting expression in his eyes even stronger.
When they arrived at the room, Yan Qing stood under the air conditioner and instantly felt like he had jumped from the North Pole to the equator!
"Beiting, I must learn to ski well... But let's do it tomorrow." She smiled as she watched Huo Beiting squatting on the side to organize his equipment. "Yaoxi doesn't know how to ski either, but she's so brave. She told me today that she could ski down with her eyes closed!"
"I told you it would come down as soon as you closed your eyes, why didn't you believe me?"
Huo Beiting was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard Yan Qing repeating "Yaoxi" on the left and on the right.
Why did he inexplicably feel jealous...
Yan Qing was not stupid. She had just warmed up. She could hear the strong hint of jealousy in Huo Beiting's words, so she jumped to his side and tried to comfort her furious man.
"Alright, Mr. Huo, please stop smelling sour in the room! It's too sour! We're going to Yaoxi later to eat hot pot, not dumplings!"
