Chapter 35
April in Chaohai City is always sunny and sunny, but for some reason this week, it was always cloudy and rainy.
Before the trip to see flowers in the southern suburbs agreed with Yu Yifeng had time to fulfill, the meeting on Saturday that Mu Qing really didn't want to go but couldn't refuse came first.
At 4:50 p.m., Mu Qing arrived at the meeting place 10 minutes before the agreed time.
As soon as the car stopped, the waiter in suits and leather shoes was already waiting outside the door. Seeing him push the door, he immediately helped him open it with a smile on his face: "Hello, guest, do you have an appointment in advance?"
Mu Qing nodded slightly: "Yes, the name of the appointment should be...Mu Qing."
Mu Qing still has a little understanding of his mother's behavior style.She is tough and demanding - not only of herself, but of her family as well.Today's meeting was of a blind date nature, so she would naturally not use her own name to make an appointment, most likely she would use his name to make an appointment in order to promote Mu Qing.
The waiter responded politely and enthusiastically: "Mr. Mu, this way please."
Mu Qing followed the waiter into this small western-style building full of quaint charm, and sighed silently when he looked at the expensive decorations in the store.
In the past, when he went out to eat with his mother, he often went to this kind of restaurant. According to his previous painful experience, the exquisiteness of the decoration and the taste of the dishes are mostly inversely proportional.
It seems that when I go back tonight, I still have to buy some extra desserts to comfort my injured taste.
He was absent-mindedly thinking about other things, and the reserved room arrived before he knew it.
The waiter leading the way stopped at the door, looked at Mu Qing and said with a smile: "Another customer has arrived earlier, you can go in directly. The ordered meal will be delivered in 10 minutes, please wait a moment."
"OK, thanks."
The door of the room was half open, and Mu Qing walked in directly.The girl who was leaning against the window watching the night scene turned her head and saw him, her eyes immediately brightened.
She has also experienced this kind of "meeting" dinner several times before, but it is actually a blind date, but it is the first time she has met a blind date with such an outstanding appearance and figure, temperament and dress aesthetics.
The favorability and expectations in her heart were unknowingly raised, she took the initiative to come over, and stretched out her hand to Mu Qing: "Hello, I'm Ke Lingzhen."
With a polite smile on his face, Mu Qing gently shook her fingertips: "Hi, I'm Mu Qing, sorry for being late."
"No, it's just that I was too early accidentally." Ke Lingzhen blinked, showing a slightly playful smile, "After all, meeting strangers is really not worth looking forward to."
Mu Qing smiled lightly and was about to speak when the phone rang suddenly.
"Sorry, I might have to excuse you a little bit."
Mu Qing got up and walked out of the room, came to a secluded place a little far from the room, and then answered the phone: "What's wrong?"
The other end of the phone was quiet for a moment before Yu Yifeng's voice rang: "Where are you?"
I don't know why, the moment he heard his voice, Mu Qing suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.This feeling is somewhere between guilty conscience and guilt, and it is hard to let go of it for a while.
Quickly suppressing the messy thoughts in his mind, Mu Qing smiled calmly: "I'm having dinner with my friends, what's wrong?"
"So that's the case." Yu Yifeng's voice was very soft, and there seemed to be a hint of a smile, "Are you a good friend?"
"No, just ordinary friends."
Mu Qing answered lightly, but Yu Yifeng seemed to have developed a strong interest in this topic, and then asked: "Ordinary friends go out for dinner together, so you should like this friend very much."
"No, it's a dinner that has to be dealt with." Mu Qing simply explained, not intending to continue this exciting topic, so he asked Yu Yifeng, "What about you? What are you doing?"
"I'm doing handwork." The smile in Yu Yifeng's tone was more obvious than before, "Guess what I'm doing?"
Mu Qing subconsciously imagined Yu Yifeng holding small scissors and colored paper in his hands, with a sewing kit and colored rags beside him, and couldn't help chuckling: "Magic dress for a princess?"
"Wow, you guessed it right!" Yu Yifeng's voice was a little surprised, and the voice sounded slowly with a smile, "Then I will make some more surprises for you, as a reward for the mutual understanding between you and me." gone."
"Okay, then I'll wait and see."
Mu Qing responded with a smile, looked at the food delivery truck that was about to reach the door of the room not far away, and sighed regretfully: "I have to go back, I'll talk to you after I'm done."
"Okay—bye—" Yu Yifeng said goodbye to him with a drawn out voice, and hung up the phone first.
Mu Qing put away the phone and walked quickly to the room.If this Miss Ke accidentally told his mother that he was not in the seat after the meal, he would be forced to be distracted from these unnecessary things again.
"The two ordered our spring limited package today..."
The waiter carefully and quickly introduced several appetizers. Mu Qing maintained a good posture and signaled to Ke Lingzhen who was opposite: "Miss Ke, please first."
Ke Lingzhen didn't move her chopsticks immediately, but looked at Mu Qing with a smile: "Can I call you Mu Qing?"
Mu Qing smiled decently: "Of course it's possible."
Ke Lingzhen said: "Mu Qing, before eating, I have a small request, can you promise me?"
"Miss Ke, please tell me."
Ke Lingzhen straightened the hair hanging from her temples, looked at Mu Qing with a smile, and said, "It's actually a kind of fate that we can meet here today. So, I hope you can call me by my first name instead of 'you ',May I?"
Mu Qing smiled lightly: "It seems a little too presumptuous for you to call a lady by her name when we first meet."
Ke Lingzhen was able to get Tao Shuang's blue eyes, so she was naturally not a little girl who didn't understand anything.Seeing that Mu Qing was still estranged from him, he immediately understood his attitude.
She lowered her eyes and smiled, and resumed her previous address: "A lot of people told me before that Mr. Mu is a gentleman in his actions, but I was a little skeptical; I saw it today, and I realized it was true."
Mu Qing smiled, and casually said: "An elegant woman like Miss Ke is rare."
In the middle of the step-by-step meal, Mu Qing's cell phone on the table suddenly turned on.
Yu Yifeng: [picture]
Nanxi
Yu Yifeng: [picture]
Yu Yifeng: Just now my grandmother was making clothes for the puppy at home, and I followed her to make one for Yunsi.
Yu Yifeng: I don't know if the size is suitable, so you can try it another day.
Yu Yifeng: It must be beautiful.
Looking at the message prompted, Mu Qing felt mixed feelings.In a trance, he felt that now he was particularly like a scumbag who left his virtuous housekeeping wife at home and went out secretly to meet a glamorous third party.
Seeing him stop and look at the phone, Ke Lingzhen thoughtfully suggested: "If there is anything important, you can deal with it first, don't worry about me."
Mu Qing came back to his senses and forced himself to look away from the screen: "It's not particularly important, it's just a little personal matter of mine."
The waiter outside the door carefully calculated the speed at which the two of them ate, and brought dessert after the meal.
Ke Lingzhen picked up a small spoon and smashed the chocolate shell on the top layer of the dessert, and suddenly sighed: "Before eating, I thought the alienation between me and you was like this layer of chocolate, which would melt with a light touch; But now I realize I was wrong, it's more like solid ice that won't melt."
Mu Qing smiled: "The fate of people cannot be generalized. Miss Ke is so smart, so she understands these principles better than me."
Ke Lingzhen sighed slightly, put down the spoon and looked at Mu Qing: "I have a relatively straightforward personality, so I want to ask you frankly—what do you think is the biggest problem between me and you?"
Mu Qing's voice was soft, but his answer was straightforward: "Sex."
Ke Lingzhen's expression froze, almost thinking that she had heard wrong: "What?"
"Gender." Mu Qing looked at her with a calm expression, "I don't know if my mother told you in advance when she made an appointment with you, but I don't want to cheat the marriage, so I won't keep it from you."
Ke Lingzhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled self-deprecatingly: "So that's the case, I thought..."
She picked up the napkin and wiped the corners of her lips, and stood up gracefully: "Mr. Mu, thank you for your company today and...to be honest, I hope you can find someone you really like as soon as possible."
"Thank you." Mu Qing handed her the handbag that was put aside, "Miss Ke is so good, you will definitely meet a better and more suitable person."
Ke Lingzhen didn't answer, but bowed gracefully, and walked out without looking back.
As the night deepened, Mu Qing drove slowly on the way home, trying to find a dessert shop that was still open on the street.
Today's dishes were complicated and delicate, but the taste really lived up to his expectations—delicate and beautiful, but the portion was small and unpalatable.
It's a pity that it's getting late now, and all the delicious dessert shops on the road have closed. Mu Qing sighed helplessly, planning to go back and make some fruit, but the phone rang suddenly.
It was inconvenient to answer the phone while driving, so Mu Qing pressed the speakerphone directly.
Yu Yifeng's voice came out of the receiver, a little deeper than before: "Have you gone home?"
"I'm still on my way, I'll be there soon." Mu Qing replied, "I saw the photo you posted just now, it's very pretty, I'll bring it here for Yun Si to try someday."
"Is now okay?"
"Now?" Mu Qing glanced at the time, "It's almost nine o'clock, you came too late, how about tomorrow?"
Yu Yifeng was quiet for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Okay, then I will arrive early tomorrow, you have to wait for me."
"okay."
The phone was hung up quickly, Yu Yifeng was quiet for a moment, and opened the dialogue box between him and Mu Qing.
The messages in the chat box were still the words and pictures he sent over at seven o'clock, and there was no reply from Mu Qing.
The screen turned from bright to dark, but a smile slowly appeared on the corner of Yu Yifeng's mouth: "I'm really looking forward to it."
He muttered to himself, "Will you explain to me tomorrow?"
