I woke up the next day, got dressed, washed up, bought breakfast on the way, and rushed to the company with the uncle.

When we were almost at the company, I told the uncle that I would let him go in alone to drive the car. I was afraid that if we went down together, our colleagues would see us and gossip about us.

The uncle said, "Well, who told me to ask that guy to come over to give you a gift last time? If I were alone, it would be fine. It would be fine if I met him."

The uncle drove straight back to the city. After I parked the car, I went to the company. I went to and from get off work on time every day, and at this time, people started to come to the company one after another.

I started my day's work. When it was almost lunch time, Mr. Liu sent me a message asking if I was in the company and saying that he wanted to send me something.

Me: I’m playing

Mr. Liu: Send me your location and I will send it to you.

Me: I sent him the location, and when I got there, I sent him a message saying I’ll come down.

It was almost 12 o'clock when Mr. Liu arrived at my company, just before I got off work.

After I came down, I saw him carrying large and small bags of things and said they were all for me.

Me: Why is there so much? I can’t eat so much. Just give me a small half and you can take the rest back.

Mr. Liu: I bought them all, and I bought two servings. You can take them home and eat them slowly.

Me: I feel so embarrassed.

Seeing that I was carrying it in my hand, he felt embarrassed and said he would just take it to my car.

After putting the things in the car, he said it was time for lunch, which was also time to get off work, so he wanted to treat me to a meal, saying that he would leave after lunch.

Me: No, I have an appointment with my colleagues.

Mr. Liu: It’s okay, you can ask your colleagues to come over!

Me: No, that’s not good. I’ll treat you next time when I have time.

He probably heard that I didn't want to go, so he didn't say anything and said, "Okay! Let's get that bestie together next time."

Me: Okay, thank you very much for bringing me so much food

Mr. Liu: You're welcome. I'll go back first. You can go eat.

After saying goodbye to Mr. Liu, I didn’t know what to eat, so I ordered a takeaway on my phone. I thought that maybe no other colleagues saw it, otherwise there would be gossip again!

The uncle sent me a message asking me if I had eaten?

Me: I haven’t ordered takeout yet

Uncle: You should eat something healthy. Some takeaways are not clean. I just didn’t see the boss do it.

Me: I rarely eat takeout, occasionally

I asked the uncle what he wanted to eat?

He sent a photo of himself suddenly coming over and having dinner at a hotel, saying that a client had come to treat him to a meal.

Me: Then you go ahead and do your work. I’ll eat and take a break later.

Uncle: OK

After eating the takeaway, I climbed onto the table and took a nap.

I was busy in the afternoon and was busy until I got off work. I felt that time passed very quickly when I was busy.

After get off work, I cleaned up my desk and was about to take my keys to punch in when I received a message from Mr. Liu on my phone.

Mr. Liu: Jiajia, are you off work? Do you have time to go out for dinner in the evening?

Me: I refused at noon, and it didn’t seem good to refuse at night, so I replied that I was just about to punch out, and asked where I was. Please send me the location and I’ll go right over!

Mr. Liu: I sent you the location, and they said there's no rush, it's still early, I can just arrive at 7 o'clock.

Me: OK, see you later

I sent a message to my bestie, asking her to go with me

Girlfriend: They invited you, not me, why should I go? It's like I haven't eaten yet, I won't go

Me: You know I’m the only one, I already have an uncle and I don’t know what to talk to him about, it’s so embarrassing!

Best friend: We're just having a meal, we're just ordinary friends, what's the big deal? Just don't think too much about it. I'm not going, so go by yourself!

I had no choice but to go by myself after agreeing. I looked at the time and it was still early, so I went home, changed my clothes, washed up, put on some beautiful makeup and got ready to go.

I ran into my dad downstairs and he asked me, "Hey, you're not going to eat at home, are you? You look so dressed up, are you going on a date?"

Me: What kind of meeting is this? It's just a meal with ordinary friends. Just eat! Don't wait for me.

My dad: Oh, then you should be careful.

Me: Okay, I know.

I got in the car, turned on the navigation, and drove to the agreed place. When I arrived, I saw that Mr. Liu had not arrived yet, so I sent him a message to let him know that I had arrived.

Mr. Liu: I'm sorry! I was delayed by something at the company. It happens to be a traffic jam at peak time. You can order first. I will be there soon.

Me: Then I’ll wait for you. I don’t know what kind of food you like.

Mr. Liu: I don’t care. Anything is fine with me. Just eat whatever you like. I don’t have any dietary restrictions.

Me: Okay then! I'll order and wait for you. Please be careful. There's no rush.

Mr. Liu: OK

I went in and found a seat. The waiter asked me how many people were there? I said two.

The waiter brought me tea and a menu, and then recommended their signature dishes.

After I ordered, I sat down and scrolled through my phone. I was bored, so I opened WeChat and checked my Moments!

After a while, about 10 minutes, Mr. Liu arrived. When he came in, he gave me a bouquet of lilies.

I was stunned when I saw it. Could it be that he was confessing his love to me? What should I do? I said, "Just come if you want to. It's just a meal. Why buy flowers?"

Mr. Liu: I didn’t know what kind of flowers you liked. When I went to buy them, the clerk recommended them to me, saying that all girls would like them, so I bought them.

Me: It’s pretty, but don’t waste your money next time

Mr. Liu: It’s okay.

The waiter started serving the dishes. Mr. Liu said it looked good, let's try it and see how it tasted! I picked up the chopsticks and tasted it. It was good.

I said I don’t know what you like to eat, and if I don’t have your favorite dishes, then I’ll just let you down!

Mr. Liu: No, it’s delicious.

As he spoke, he told me to eat more, saying that I was too thin.

Me: No way, I’ve gained a lot of weight recently.

Mr. Liu: Girls should be a little fatter, just as cute as my cat!

Me: You still have a cat?

Mr. Liu: Yes, I have liked cats since I was a child. I used to live with my parents, but they were against it and didn’t like cats. They said they were dirty and shed hair, so they didn’t allow me to keep one. Now I live alone, so I have one.

Me: Is this true? How long have you had it?

Mr. Liu: I have had this cat for since last year. Actually, it was also raised by my ex-girlfriend. After we broke up, she said she didn’t want it anymore and wanted to throw it away. I raised this cat since it was very small. I couldn’t bear to let her throw it away, so I brought it back and now it has grown up.

Me: You are quite honest.

Mr. Liu: It's all in the past, there's no need to hide it! It's in the past, and the fact that I mentioned it shows that I've let go of that relationship.

Me: That’s right. I’ll visit your house and see the cats you have when I have time. I have loved kittens and puppies since I was a child. However, my mother is very clean and strongly opposed to it, so I have never kept any.

As he said that, he took out his cell phone and said he had a photo. He opened it and showed it to me. I saw a picture of a fat yellow cat. It was so cute!

Mr. Liu: I will take you to my house to see it if I have the chance.

me: ok

Then we ate and talked about work, and it wasn’t awkward at all. After dinner, we said goodbye to each other and went home!
