Shortly after Zhao Xiaoan got on the car, Chen Zihan also left Wushang and returned to Qiantang.
The Hangzhou-Jinhua-Quzhou Expressway has not been completed yet, so to return to Qiantang from Wushang, you can only take Provincial Highway 03.
There was a lot of traffic during the festival, and it took Chen Zihan nearly three hours to reach Qiantang.
When the car arrived at the Qiantang River Bridge, it was stuck in traffic for more than ten minutes.
Seeing that it was already past six o'clock, Chen Zihan called Lu Ruorong and said embarrassedly that he would arrive at the Yuquan campus at almost seven o'clock. If Lu Ruorong couldn't wait any longer, she could go eat something first.
"It's okay, I'm not hungry." Lu Ruorong asked Chen Zihan to drive slowly and not to rush.
Anyway, she had eaten something in the afternoon and was not hungry now. She would wait for him to arrive and then go have dinner together.
Fortunately, there was no traffic jam after entering the city, and Chen Zihan was able to arrive at the Yuquan campus before seven o'clock.
Lu Ruorong was waiting at the door early. When she saw Chen Zihan's car coming, she immediately went to meet him.
"Driving is much more tiring than taking the train. Next time I go home, I will definitely not drive." After seeing Lu Ruorong, Chen Zihan complained a few words.
Before the expressway was opened, driving on provincial roads was quite tiring.
Especially at night, many cars on the opposite side turn on their high beams, which makes me feel unsafe and tired.
"Then go back to bed early." Lu Ruorong said considerately, "You've been pretty busy these past few days, haven't you?"
"Yes, I'm very busy!" Chen Zihan felt a little guilty, so he quickly changed the subject and asked about Lu Ruorong's activities for the next two days.
"I didn't make any plans. I just went shopping with Li Siqing and had a big meal. After we came back, we chatted until after midnight." Lu Ruorong asked Chen Zihan about his grandmother's injury and whether it was serious.
"It's okay. After the operation, you just need to take good care of yourself. Older people may recover a little slower, but it's not a big deal."
Lu Ruorong asked Chen Zihan again if he had conveyed her greetings.
"Yes!" Chen Zihan said with a smile, "But my grandma doesn't know who you are, so if you want her to remember you, you should find a chance to comfort her in person!"
Lu Ruorong rolled her eyes at Chen Zihan and said, "You want me to come to your house and play?"
"You can go if you have the chance!" Chen Zihan asked Lu Ruorong, "Don't you want to go?"
"Let's talk about it later!" Lu Ruorong rolled his eyes at Chen Zihan and asked him for a New Year's gift again.
Chen Zihan pointed to the back seat. "These are your New Year's gifts. I've marked the gift for Li Siqing separately. I've also prepared some small gifts for your other roommates. You can give them to them later."
"Are you doing wholesale?" Lu Ruorong asked with a smile, looking at the pile of boxes at the back. "What are these things?"
"Accessories, as well as scarves and socks for the girls. I think it would be better to give you something practical in life." Chen Zihan grinned. "If you're not satisfied, we can buy something on the spur of the moment. After all, today is the first day of the new year."
"You're thoughtful!" Lu Ruorong said with a smile, "You're quite considerate."
"I want to infiltrate your daily life." Chen Zihan said with a smug look on his face, "So that you can think of me anytime, anywhere."
"I don't miss you at all!" Lu Ruorong glared at Chen Zihan again, "I've been feeling much better these past few days without you around!"
Chen Zihan rolled his eyes. "You're telling me this on the first day of the new year. Do you want to upset me?"
"Stingy!" Just as the car stopped for a red light, Lu Ruorong leaned over and kissed Chen Zihan on the cheek. "I'll consider this as compensation, okay?"
"Not enough!" Chen Zihan pointed to his mouth, "Come here later."
"Just drive carefully!" Lu Ruorong turned Chen Zihan's head and let him look forward.
The two found a private room in a Chinese restaurant not far from the school.
It was past seven o'clock and there were not many people eating. After the two of them ordered the dishes, they had not yet finished opening the gifts when the food arrived.
The gifts Chen Zi Han gave were all bought from the market. Although they were not expensive, they were very exquisite and the designs were very nice. Lu Ruorong liked them at first sight.
Although "Langsha" socks were not very famous in 2001, the quality was still quite good and the styles were very fashionable. Lu Ruorong also liked them very much.
"What gift are you giving me?" Chen Zihan asked Lu Ruorong, "Are you planning to spend the night with me?"
"Go away!" Lu Ruorong blushed and tapped Chen Zihan's hand with her chopsticks. "You only think about these things."
Chen Zihan chuckled, "It would be abnormal not to think about these things!"
"I wanted to give you a laptop, but you bought one yourself. You already have a phone and a watch, so I don't know what to get you." Lu Ruorong said a little embarrassedly, "I'll give you a suit so you can wear it when you're doing business. Let's go buy it together later, okay? I'm afraid I'll buy something wrong and have to return it if the size isn't right."
"Thank you in advance!" Chen Zihan smiled happily, "There are beautiful girls who accompany me to buy clothes, and I don't have to pay the bill. There are really not many happier things in the world than this!"
"That little mouth is quite talkative!" Lu Ruorong reached out and tugged at the corner of Chen Zihan's mouth, then wiped it with a piece of paper in disgust. "It's all greasy, disgusting!"
Chen Zihan snorted, "Women are fickle, that's true. The first half of the sentence is praising me, and the second half is insulting me!"
Lu Ruorong raised her little head proudly, "Humph, I like it this way!"
It was a heartwarming meal as the two of them were flirting with each other.
After dinner, Chen Zihan took Lu Ruorong to the Jiefang Road Department Store.
At Jiebai, Lu Ruorong bought Chen Zihan a Goldlion suit, a shirt of the same brand and a tie.
"You look quite handsome in a suit." After ordering Chen Zihan to change into the suit, Lu Ruorong said with a very satisfied look, "Not bad, not bad, you really are a clothes hanger. If you go out wearing this in the future, you will definitely attract the attention of beautiful girls, so don't be so complacent!"
"Then I'll wear this outfit when I go back. I can't bear to take it off." Chen Zihan looked at his feet and said with a smile, "I have to buy a new pair of shoes!"
Lu Ruorong said proudly, "Pick your own shoes!"
"That's right. Everyone knows that you can't give shoes as gifts." Chen Zihan didn't care.
Seeing Lu Ruorong's happy face, he didn't take off his suit and walked out of the mall wearing it.
Seeing that Chen Zihan was very satisfied with the clothes she bought, Lu Ruorong was very happy.
Originally, she wanted to take Chen Zihan for a stroll by the West Lake, but thinking that Chen Zihan must be tired, she urged him to go back to bed early and said they would go for a stroll by the West Lake together tomorrow night.
Chen Zihan also agreed.
So he drove Lu Ruorong back to the Yuquan campus.
But after Lu Ruorong got off the car, he did not go back immediately, but accompanied her into the school.
Lu Ruorong seemed to understand Chen Zihan's intentions and tacitly led him towards a dimly lit grove beside the playground...
