Chapter 1 (1/2)

Autumn, weekend.

The afternoon in fountain square is very busy.

It's a rare day off. Everyone is willing to go out and have a look.

At this time, the sun is just right, and many pedestrians choose to take a walk in the square. Parents who bring their children out to play and dating couples will pass by or stop at the square just next to the busy commercial street.

Some smart vendors sell toys here, or circle out a field to rent skates for people to play. From time to time, some children pull balloons and run by laughing. Their short legs are too fast for their parents to catch up.

Beside the relatively quiet fountain, Lin Lan was there, half squatting to feed the ham sausage to the stray cat.

She wore a low ponytail and a beige windbreaker, which made her look very quiet. At this time, her pretty face was watching the kitten chew food with a smile, tearing the intestines in her hands more and feeding them.

”Lan Lan!”

Before long, a young man trotted towards her from the side of the street, waving his hand. He was in a hurry.

Lin Lan didn't get up immediately when she heard the familiar cry. Instead, she continued to feed the cat slowly, tearing up the last chicken in her hand and throwing it to the kitten. Then she slowly wiped the oil stains on her fingertips with a wet towel and turned her head to look at the young man who had passed by, with a smile on her face.

”Yes, Shao xiuye asked me to come here, but let me stand here waiting for you for more than an hour.” She raised her eyebrows and said, ”you're good.”

”No, no, no, no!” Shao xiuye, a young man, shakes his head in a hurry and is eager to survive. ”There was a small situation when I started. I was delayed for a while. There was an urgent matter in the company and asked me to go back. Then I came here as soon as I finished! Before also sends the short message to report with you, Lan Lan who I am you still do not understand, I when with you never late

Lin Lan did not speak, she just looked up and down at her boyfriend, who had not met formally for a while. Shao xiuye has a handsome face that can be called Zhou Zheng. Her features are angular and her figure is symmetrical and tall. When he took the initiative to pursue her two years ago, Lin Lan was also envied by many women.

Half a year ago, because of job transfer, he moved from the city where they worked and lived together and went to work in the city where the company headquarters is located. They had to separate. Now they have been in a long-distance relationship for half a year.

At this time, the man in front of him was dressed in a well-made suit, his shoes were polished, and his hair was taken care of irreverently. In Lin Lan's impression, he was a little strange.

”This, this is for work.” See her line of sight constantly patrol shuttle, Shao xiuye and quickly way, ”before the company suddenly have urgent need to deal with, Lan Lan I also have no way, really don't intentionally dress like this to meet with you.”

”What are you panicking about?” Lin Lan lips a hook, ”I just want to say that your dress at work is very handsome ah, there must be a lot of girls like it?”

Shao xiuye immediately embarrassed smile: ”Lan Lan, what do you say.” As if he wanted to change the topic urgently, he stepped forward and took Lin Lan's hand and walked forward, ”go, you are hungry after waiting so long, aren't you? I'll take you to the same place to eat

Both of them are working-class, and they can't afford to go to any high-end restaurant even if they are dating. Shao xiuye said that the old place is just a well managed low-cost hot pot shop, with an average consumption of no more than 90 yuan.

In the past, Lin Lan always had a satisfied face when he went there. When he led him, he would follow him. But now, Shao xiuye was thrown away by her as soon as she caught him.

”Shao xiuye, you told me in a short message last month that you were promoted and raised. It's rare for us to meet. Every time I come to you on my own initiative, do you plan to treat me to this all the time? ”

As soon as I heard her voice, I knew that she was still angry. The man awkwardly took back his hand: ”Lan Lan, you're right, it's not time to go there. Well, I'll treat you to Western food! ”

They went through the square and went to the pedestrian street inside. They sat down in a western restaurant where they never dare to go in but only look outside. Soon after they were seated, the waiter politely asked with a beautiful menu.

”We...” Shao xiuye didn't finish. The menu he just took from the waiter was taken away by Lin Lan.

”I want this, this, this And this one. ” The woman's white fingers ordered all kinds of expensive steaks, caviar, soup and desserts on the menu one by one, and finally added a bottle of four digit red wine. She watched the well-trained clerk finish the shorthand of the order and returned the menu with a smile. ”That's all for the time. I'm tired of you.”

Shao xiuye, sitting on the opposite side, looks at his girlfriend. At least thousands of words are lost. His face is blue and white for a while. Subconsciously, he wants to open his mouth and sees his girlfriend's smiling eyes: ”what? Is that painful? You didn't care about your salary when you bought a pair of eight thousand AJS behind my back. ”

”That's...!” The man just wanted to retort, but he got stuck in the moment. He quickly bowed his head and admitted, ”Lan Lan, I'm wrong. It's my fault that I didn't discuss it with you. ”

”It seems you still remember that we agreed to save money to get married and buy a house together.” The waiter had already walked away with the menu, but Lin Lan didn't let him go. ”I thought that your environment had changed since you moved to the new city, and your heart had become wild.”The opposite man is not talking, perhaps because of his own fault, or because of his girlfriend's aggressive, the romantic and elegant couple meal has become silent, even the violin music in the restaurant can not ease the atmosphere.

The dishes were served quickly. The waiter delivered the exquisite dishes to the table in order, and poured the bottle of four figure red wine into the couple's tall glasses.

The wine red transparent glass also reflects the two men and women on the dining table, one is silent, the other is heartless with a knife and fork.

Shao xiuye looks at Lin Lan, who cuts the steak gracefully and eats it gracefully. His brow is also wrinkled unconsciously. He has the impression that like him, he lives in a cheap rental house, is used to a snack stall, and the most free means of transportation is a small electric donkey that he bought from the second-hand market. His girlfriend, who sits behind him and laughs happily, is now happy Vice president is very familiar with high-end Western food, which also makes him feel unfamiliar.

Looking at his girlfriend's beautiful face, a guess that made him angry emerged in his mind.

”What are you thinking?” The other side suddenly looked up at him, but unconsciously she had finished her meal. ”It's rare to have a big meal, but I'm absent-minded. Is there anything you want to say to me?”

In a word, let Shao xiuye calm down again, originally he still feel guilty, but before the sudden idea let him suddenly lost in the back of his mind.

”It's nothing.” He looked at the opposite girlfriend, ”in fact, I just want to ask you if I'm not used to it in the past six months when I'm not with you. To be honest, when I came to this new place, I really ran into a wall everywhere at the beginning. In order to get a foothold, I was always in a hurry. It seemed that even you were ignored unconsciously. Lanlan, I'm really sorry. ”

Listening to the other party's apology, the corner of Lin Lan's mouth cocked up strangely: ”don't say that. Ah ye, you will be busy when you go to a new place for development. It's normal that you don't have time to contact me. How can I blame you for this? Long distance love is hard. You don't have to say sorry to me. Besides, I'm not used to leaving you. ”

Shao xiuye's original shame was broken up by Lin Lan's heartless last sentence. The other side didn't stop, but picked up a napkin to wipe his mouth while carelessly.

”What? Do you want to break up with me when you suddenly complain to me? ”
