After Li Siqing and Yang Xiaodong left, Chen Zihan finally dared to hold Lu Ruorong's hand and leave openly.
Lu Ruorong did not refuse, and put her other cold hand into Chen Zihan's pocket.
No matter what kind of women they are, they always have some common characteristics - of course, Chen Zi Han doesn't hate their similar actions.
"How about we go have hot pot tonight to get rid of the cold?" Chen Zihan suggested to Lu Ruorong as they walked out of the botanical garden. "Drink more soup, and you won't feel cold on a snowy day."
"It's up to you. I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat." Lu Ruorong was still in a good mood. She couldn't help but remind Chen Zihan again not to forget that he owed her two promises.
"These are two things, not two promises." Chen Zihan reminded him solemnly, "I never make promises lightly. Once I make a promise, I will do everything I can to fulfill it."
Chen Zihan's words touched Lu Ruorong. She threw away Chen Zihan's hand and stood face to face with him: "I remember what you just said."
"What do you mean?" Chen Zi Han was stunned.
"The recognition you give will always be realized, no matter the cost." Lu Ruorong looked serious.
"Yes, yes!" Chen Zihan pinched Lu Ruorong's cheek and immediately changed the subject, "Okay, let's go climb the Gem Mountain quickly. It will be dark soon."
"Don't change the subject." Lu Ruorong looked at Chen Zihan stubbornly, but after looking at Chen Zihan for a few times, she finally softened her tone, "Anyway, you are not allowed to forget what you just said."
Lu Ruorong's persistence just now made Chen Zihan feel a little guilty.
But he didn't want to bring up this topic anymore, so he pulled Lu Ruorong away.
After some effort, the two finally climbed up the Gem Mountain.
When Lu Ruorong climbed up the Baoshi Mountain and was about to take a photo from a high ground with a good angle, her cell phone rang.
"It's from my aunt!" After looking at the number on the caller ID, Lu Ruorong and Chen Zihan whispered to each other before answering the phone.
When he heard that it was Lu Qinglan calling, Chen Zihan quickly pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.
"Hey, aunt...are you coming to Qiantang tomorrow? To discuss investment with Chen Zihan? When will you arrive? Do you want us to pick you up at the airport? Will you come by yourself? Okay, then we'll have dinner with you. He's right next to me, and we're watching the snow by the West Lake. He's definitely fine with it. How could he avoid you when you come to Qiantang?"
Hearing Chen Zihan, Chen Zihan shouted into the phone: "Auntie, no matter when you come to Qiantang, I will come to see you as soon as possible. I will accompany you to eat, play, and go shopping. Except sleeping, everything else is fine!"
"You bastard, what are you talking about?" Lv Qinglan on the other end of the phone was immediately furious after hearing Chen Zihan's words: "Wait until I get over here and I'll deal with you properly. You're getting too much!"
Chen Zihan quickly fled.
After Lu Ruorong glared at Chen Zihan, she hid aside to answer the phone.
After a few more words, Lu Ruorong hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Ruorong explained the situation to Chen Zihan: "My aunt will come to Qiantang tomorrow afternoon and have dinner with us. You'll treat us then! She said she wants to discuss investing in Zhongtian Company. You initially mentioned an investment of 10 million, right? If she's happy, we can sign a formal cooperation agreement on the spot. Also, we'll accompany her to the West Lake for a stroll. She also wants to see the snowy scenery."
"No problem!" Chen Zihan agreed naturally, "I hope there will be snow by the West Lake the day after tomorrow."
After answering, Chen Zi Han curiously asked Lu Ruorong how many days Lu Qinglan planned to stay in Qiantang.
Lu Ruorong replied, "Stay for two or three days, then I will return to Yanjing with her."
Chen Zihan was immediately disappointed: "Didn't you promise me that you would accompany me somewhere to play for two days during the winter vacation before returning?"
"Aren't I playing with you now?" Lu Ruorong said slyly, "I'll play with you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and you're still not satisfied?"
Chen Zihan stared at Lu Ruorong for a while, then suddenly became discouraged: "You're so boring!"
Lu Ruorong snorted twice: "Anyway, since you didn't behave well, I won't go out to play with you alone."
"What about before school starts?" Chen Zihan was a little anxious. "You promised me that you would accompany me to Chang'an to play."
Lu Ruorong's beautiful big eyes rolled around for a few times before she smiled and said, "It's still early, let's talk about it after the New Year!"
"Okay!" Chen Zi Han couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing that Chen Zi Han was a little unhappy, Lu Ruorong walked over, took the camera, and smiled and asked Chen Zi Han to stand still so that she could take a few photos of him.
After taking pictures, she took the initiative to hold his hand and walked forward.
The two stayed on the mountain until five o'clock, when it was almost dark, and then they went down the mountain.
Dusk comes early in winter. Although it was only half past five when they reached the foot of the mountain, night had already fallen.
When going down the mountain, Chen Zi Han received a message from Zhao Xiaoan.
She said in the message that the car she was riding in stopped at Jinshan North for more than half an hour and was expected to arrive about an hour later than the original time.
The train Zhao Xiaoan was riding was originally scheduled to arrive in Qiantang around 7:30 p.m., but with this stop, the estimated arrival time would be around 8:30 to 9:00 p.m.
Chen Zihan was greatly surprised by the news that Zhao Xiaoan's train was delayed.
In this way, he wouldn't have to say goodbye to Lu Ruorong in a hurry.
After going down the mountain, he calmly took Lu Ruorong to have a hotpot meal.
What he didn't expect was that when he was about to eat hotpot at the famous hotpot restaurant near the lakeside, Yang Xiaodong and Li Siqing also came.
Chen Zihan was very surprised when he saw Yang Xiaodong and Li Siqing coming in.
Yang Xiaodong also noticed Chen Zihan and Lu Ruorong immediately. He was obviously startled to see them sitting there.
If Li Siqing had not seen Chen Zihan and Lu Ruorong sitting there, he would probably have tried to pull Li Siqing away from the store entrance.
Chen Zihan asked them to sit together with a helpless look on his face, and the four of them ate together.
"Where did you go?" Lü Ruorong asked them with a hint of amusement after Li Siqing and Yang Xiaodong sat down. "It looks like you had a lot of fun."
"We had a snowball fight on the Bai Causeway and took a boat trip to the lake's island. We had wanted to go to Xiaoyingzhou, but we ran out of time." Li Siqing glanced at Lu Ruorong, then at Chen Zihan, his expression suddenly changing. "Don't look at me like that. Yang Xiaodong and I were simply abandoned by you and had no choice but to be together. There's no other relationship. Luckily, there's always a way out, and we ran into you again at dinner. This dinner is on you."
"There's no silver here!" Lu Ruorong reached out and pinched Li Siqing's cheek, saying with disdain, "As soon as you explain, there's a problem!"
Yang Xiaodong sat aside, just giggling and saying nothing.
Chen Zihan patted Yang Xiaodong on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Mr. Yang, remember this: a toad that doesn't want to eat swan meat is not a good toad!"
Yang Xiaodong: “…”
