Xia Xingchi took a deep breath and finally made up his mind to ring the bell to let the waiter come in.
"This porridge, and this, this..."
He clicked on the menu with his fingers. In addition to seafood porridge, there are also dishes with light taste, less oil and less salt, and a beautiful crystal shrimp dumpling.
The more "ordinary dishes" you eat here, the more expensive they are. While ordering, he felt that someone had chopped off a piece of meat from his small wallet.
But we can't let his Jingui's big cat only eat porridge. A certain person was so sick in the morning that he almost didn't eat.
The waiter reminded in a low voice: "Sir, our ingredients are relatively small and may not be enough for the two of you."
Xia Xingchi blinked, and then subconsciously looked at the veal steak and milk cake that he was thinking about.
He swallowed, but in the end he just waved his hands and said, "I don't want to eat, just order these."
Li Chengyuan, who was sitting by the side, frowned slightly when he heard the words.
I was already ready to eat vegetable salad, but I guess it would be greasy sausage fried rice at best.
Never thought that this stingy little money fan would only be willing to buy things for himself, but he was not stingy at all spending money on him...even though his intention was to make Xia Xingchi feel bad.
Seeing the seafood porridge being served on the table, the warm air seemed to penetrate into Li Chengyuan's heart instantly.
His fingers curled up slightly, it turned out that this is the surprise of being cared for.
"Wow, it's so delicious!" Xia Xingchi admired, and stretched out his head to study why it was so expensive, and what was the difference between the seafood delivered by air and the seafood bought casually at the street stall.
Being hooked by this scent made him even more greedy, his stomach let out a "cuckoo" which was very clear in the quiet box.
"Hey..." Xia Xingchi could only smile awkwardly.
Li Chengyuan lowered his eyes and remained silent.
Over the years, he has often been full of hatred for this little liar, and he has thought of many ways to make him pay a terrible price.
Unexpectedly, Xia Xingchi was not allowed to eat for a while now, and he was already so soft-hearted that he couldn't do anything more.
"Try it quickly, what are you thinking?" Xia Xingchi reached out and poked him.
Li Chengyuan stood up suddenly, said with a sullen face, "I'm going to the bathroom", then opened the door and left.
So Xia Xingchi was the only one left in the room, facing the smell of the fragrance with a hungry stomach.
He had no choice but to divert his attention by swiping Weibo, and typed in the words "Li Chengyuan" aimlessly.
Originally, he searched casually for fun, but when he saw the search results, he was shocked—he actually has so many fans and topics? !
Although Li Chengyuan was very low-key, he couldn't hold back his high-key face. The industries of Li's Group involve all walks of life, the branches are astonishingly huge, and the strong capital is obvious to all.
Therefore, the combination of several key words of "young and handsome mysterious big chaebol" is full of impact, and it is a perfect match for a male god.
As for those rumors of shortcomings such as "ruthless means", "cruel personality" and "bad health", fans are obsessed with him and call him the perfect hero design.
— But isn't this an obvious crazy criticism of the villain's character design!
Xia Xingchi continued to scroll down, but suddenly found that everyone was not sure about Li Chengyuan's appearance.
Even though his blurry photos and back figure were on the trending searches not long ago, it was the same every time. The hot search terms and pictures could only persist for a few minutes before quickly disappearing completely due to his money-making ability.
In fact, there are photos of Li Chengyuan on the Internet, but there are dozens of versions of Li Chengyuan who are "suspected" to be the rightful owner.
It is rare for someone to take a picture of his clear face, but he was the first to be excluded by everyone. I saw the following piece in the comment area:
[Ah...Although Mr. Li is said to be handsome, there's no need to be so exaggerated, right? This is more handsome than a celebrity who relies on his face to make a living, is it possible? ]
[It's gone, it's easy to see which internet celebrity is hot [白眼.jpg]]
[This picture is so handsome [Nympho.jpg] I'll take it away first, and ask for the Weibo of this internet celebrity brother]
[Who will delete it? Don't confuse this fake picture with Mr. Li's super talk]
Fans were curious and eager to see the true face of the male god, so they compiled and listed the nine most likely correct versions, and then asked them to claim their boss on the official Weibo of the Atelier Group.
But of course no one dared to speak up and tell the truth.
Xia Xingchi couldn't help laughing wildly, thinking that the correct answer would have been kicked out long ago, and all nine of them were wrong. Everyone is still seriously launching a vote to choose which one may be the right one?
Laughing and laughing but couldn't help being a little sad—
Thinking that fans will suddenly learn the news of the male god's death in the near future, they will definitely feel sad and unbelievable.
It would be great if Li Chengyuan didn't die, maybe everyone will have a chance to see him in the future, appreciate the demeanor of the ceiling in the full text, and don't have to guess and believe that he is so good-looking.
Li Chengyuan just pushed the door open and came in, the first time he saw Xia Xingchi's sad expression with drooping eyebrows.
He was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was wronged because he didn't eat.
A subtle distress and self-blame spread in the bottom of my heart accompanied by sourness.
But even so, he didn't say anything, just sat down and drank the porridge without saying a word, pretending that he didn't see it.
The aching stomach was gradually comforted by the warm current, and a bowl of seafood porridge, which had always been commonplace in his eyes, was more cherished than ever because of its extraordinarily different meaning.
"Is it delicious!" Xia Xingchi was always optimistic, his little sadness was fleeting, and he became happy again.
As soon as the words were finished, there was a knock on the door, and a waiter walked in with a tray.
On the tray were a variety of delicacies, including of course Xia Xingchi's long-cherished veal steak and many milk cakes for dessert.
The other party quickly showed a standard service smile: "Hi sir, congratulations on becoming the 99th customer of our store! This is a gift for you—"
"Wait a minute, what event?"
Xia Xingchi was taken aback when he heard that, then went to look at those things again, and finally asked: "You mean... you gave all of these to me?"
—Such a high-end restaurant actually has such a strange and down-to-earth activity?
— And more importantly, why are these "freebies" more expensive than the meals he ordered?
—Could it be a lie? Do you want to know more about anti-fraud for the whole people?
Countless question marks circled in Xia Xingchi's mind, but at this moment he smelled the aroma of veal steak.
It was more fragrant than he had imagined... After being hooked half of his soul by greed, he suddenly felt that there was nothing to doubt.
"This event is our tradition! Our boss commemorates his and his wife's wedding anniversary, implying a long-lasting love." The waiter smiled enthusiastically, "You are really super lucky!"
This rhetoric is very true, and the smile is full of contagion. Xia Xingchi finally believed it completely, and became excited: "Wow! I have the moment to become a koi!"
Li Chengyuan looked at his smiling eyebrows and curved eyes, and smiled slightly. While looking up at the waiter, he nodded slightly, implying his affirmation of the other party's acting skills.
A large amount of pie from the sky is obviously the happiest thing for small money fans. The joy that comes from a sense of luck cannot be exchanged for money.
So until the waiter left, Xia Xingchi was still giggling, and it took him a long time to remember to eat.
As expected of his coveted delicacy, there is a reason why it is expensive: the milk cake is very tender, sweet but not greasy, and has a rich milk flavor. The veal steak was also well cooked, tender and juicy.
Every dish was quite to the taste, Xia Xingchi narrowed his eyes happily and contentedly, and Li Chengyuan couldn't help but want to poke his face with his puffy cheeks.
.
It's just that when the little money fan was about to pay the bill with heartache like cutting flesh, he saw that the waiter in charge of the checkout did not behave so well:
"Sir, because Mr. Li...is our senior VIP! So we order all the dishes today..."
Xia Xingchi looked at him suspiciously, thinking that he hired a stammering waiter, or that he didn't look very smart?
Seeing this, Li Chengyuan gradually frowned, and had no choice but to make a "five" gesture silently.
"Yes! Let's get 50% off today's dishes!" The waiter, who was so nervous that he seemed stuck, finally finished the task with difficulty.
When it comes to money, Xiaocaifan is still very shrewd and sharp, especially when facing the familiar waiter "peer".
Xia Xingchi realized that something was wrong, and immediately asked the other party sharply: "Are you memorizing a manuscript? So who told you to say that?"
While talking, he quickly turned his head to stare at a certain suspect, and suddenly realized that the "99" activity just now was also very deliberate.
Li Chengyuan still had a cold face as usual, and calmly took a sip of warm water, as if he didn't care about such "little things" at all, let alone be like this.
"Li Chengyuan, don't you..." Before Xia Xingchi finished speaking, he realized that the waiter was about to cry nervously.
In order not to embarrass the same hard-working workers, he had to swipe his card to pay first—the salary he earned from shooting advertisements. He felt distressed but full of sense of accomplishment.
After the waiter left and the room became quiet again, Xia Xingchi turned his head again, trying to find some clues from someone's expression.
But Li Chengyuan lowered his face first as if changing the subject and asked, "Why don't you wear a ring?"
When Xia Xingchi swiped his card, he found that there was nothing on Xia Xingchi's right middle finger.
"Afraid of being seen by others," Xia Xingchi pulled out a ring worn by a string from his collar, "I'm also a small entertainer anyway."
Thinking about it, I felt it was wrong, so I hurriedly imitated Li Chengyuan, and the villain complained first: "It's all your fault for being too hot, if your fans know that you married young, everyone will kill me!"
In an instant, he changed his identity from "the little scumbag who just wants to make money and forced a secret marriage" to "the poor little guy whose other half is too popular so he had to hide the marriage".
Li Chengyuan: "..."
After Xia Xingchi finished speaking, he felt ashamed of his salary. If his status as an artist made this relationship invisible, what would happen if his salary was deducted by the sponsor?
So he had no choice but to come up with a plan to delay the attack: "It's okay to make it public, but you have to give your fans a period of time to prepare and buffer, and let them accept it little by little, right?"
This is also true, if it is made public suddenly, Xia Xingchi suspects that he will be slaughtered directly, not to mention Xingtuhe and his great career in the entertainment industry.
Anyway, Li Chengyuan has always kept a low profile and didn't care about it, and coupled with the fact that he has to deal with all kinds of problems all day long, if he doesn't have the time to manage and lay the groundwork in front of everyone, he will definitely let it go.
But what Xia Xingchi didn't know was that these words made a certain villain ponder quietly for a while.
Finally, after the two left the restaurant and got on the bus, Li Chengyuan lowered his eyes and silently sent a few messages to the screen.
.
The autumn night was clear, and the sky above the villa could be seen twinkling with stars.
As a worker who kept his promise, although the boss went to the company in the afternoon and hasn't returned until now, Xia Xingchi obediently brought his pillow and quilt.
He really didn't know what kind of madness Li Chengyuan was going on, so he insisted on making him sleep. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally found a similar reason - Li Chengyuan wanted to find someone to warm his bed.
After all, this person has poor immunity and has always been afraid of the cold. He wants to sleep warmly. Of course, the hot water bottle and electric blanket are not as comfortable as the large human-shaped heater with constant temperature.
Thinking of this, Xia Xingchi hesitated for a moment, and finally took back the quilt he brought back, leaving only Li Chengyuan's quilt on the bed.
I waited until after ten o'clock in the evening, but I never saw Li Chengyuan's figure again.
"Aunt Li, why hasn't he come back so late?" Xia Xingchi gradually became worried, "Is there a party tonight? Then he won't drink bars, his delicate stomach can't drink."
Aunt Li saw that the young couple were "enjoyed", so she smiled and replied, "Don't worry, Mr. knows it well, and no one dares to let him drink - probably because he has accumulated too much work these days and hasn't finished it yet."
Since Xia Xingchi suddenly appeared in Li Chengyuan's bathtub a few days ago and fled in a hurry, he first dug deep to find someone, and then started to get engaged as if on a whim, indeed he had accumulated a lot of affairs.
Xia Xingchi could only nod.
On the one hand, he was worried that he hadn't eaten dinner, and on the other hand, he thought that this was actually good, lest he would be so frightened that he couldn't sleep if there was a mad villain lying next to him.
Taking advantage of Li Chengyuan's absence, he quickly soaked himself in the bathtub to wash himself clean, and then took the initiative to dry his hair with a hair dryer.
Even a new set of pajamas was put on.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, and making sure that he could climb onto the dragon bed of His Majesty, who is obsessed with cleanliness and irascibility, without being beaten violently, he then turned off the light, curled himself up under the blanket and lay down.
The quilt smelled a little of Li Chengyuan's shampoo and eau de toilette, wrapped in a clean breath, which smelled very nice.
Xia Xingchi buried his head in sniffing, and finally wrapped himself up completely tightly. He was so easy to feed and didn't recognize the bed that he fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.
.
So, when Li Chengyuan came back in the early morning, as soon as he entered the room, he saw a round, bulging silhouette on the bed, which seemed to move a little bit.
He couldn't help being stunned for a moment, unable to understand what it was.
Perhaps the "happiness" came too suddenly, and it took him a while to realize that he had already tricked a certain liar.
The heart like a pool of stagnant water jumped alive in an instant, Li Chengyuan's eyes showed a little warmth, and he gently lifted the quilt like opening a gift—
Xia Xingchi was sleeping unconsciously with his pillow in his arms. His white and slender legs were exposed from the loose pajama pants and lay on the pillow, like a little koala hugging a tree.
The corners of the pajamas were also lifted because of dishonesty, revealing the slender and youthful waist.
It was obviously the same shower gel, but after using it on him, the smell seemed to change, and it smelled even more pleasant.
Li Chengyuan pursed his lips, and a trace of heat and patience flashed in his eyes. After a long while, he bent down and gently touched Xia Xingchi's hand.
