When he was celebrating the Chinese New Year in Luocheng this year, he met Wang Kelu, but the two of them just added each other on WeChat and chatted for a few minutes, and he didn't know how to pursue her.

After having a crush on someone for so long, when the time came for him to actually get in touch with her, he felt a little scared. He was afraid that he would not perform well, and that he would lose her before he even had her.

Xiang Sixia was surprised for several seconds when she heard this and didn't know what to say. She had never thought that her carefree friend actually had such an affectionate secret admirer, and that this secret admirer had lasted for so many years. She couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to Zhuang Shaoting.

"I can help you make connections and put in some good words, but the rest is up to you."

When Zhuang Shaoting heard Xiang Sixia's words, his eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.

"I understand, Senior."

Xiang Sixia sighed in his heart again, this younger brother is so innocent.

After talking it out, both of them seemed to let go of their burdens and chatted more happily.

The doorman drove the car over, Zhuang Shaoting took the key, said thank you, and said to Xiang Sixia,

"Senior sister, please get in the car." He took two steps and opened the passenger door.

With a "bang", the door was opened a little and then pushed back in an instant. A slender hand with distinct joints was pressing on the junction of the door frame and the car frame.

Brother Jiliang?!

Xiang Sixia’s eyes widened instantly, looking at the person who suddenly appeared in surprise.

Zhuang Shaoting turned around and was about to question him, but he saw that the man didn't even look at him, and walked in front of Xiang Sixia in two or three steps. The sense of oppression came directly to him but was immediately suppressed, and he heard Ji Liang speak calmly,

"What a coincidence."

Xiang Sixia was still in shock and hadn't recovered yet. She didn't expect to meet him here. What she didn't expect was the strong attitude that Ji Liangge had just shown.

"Brother Jiliang."

Xiang Sixia looked at Ji Liang and called him softly.

Before Ji Liang could say anything, Zhuang Shaoting came over with a somewhat aggressive tone.

"what are you up to?"

Ji Liang glanced at Zhuang Shaoting, then at Xiang Sixia, and said in a calm and low voice,

"Xia Xia, you want to take my car back?"

Xiang Sixia glanced at Ji Liang, then turned his head to look at Zhuang Shaoting.

"Shao Ting, Brother Ji Liang and I will go back. You can go first. Thank you for tonight."

Since Xiang Sixia said so, it was not convenient for him to say anything more, and the doorman also tactfully reminded him that it was time to leave.

"Senior, if there is anything, call me."

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Before leaving, Zhuang Shaoting gave Ji Liang a warning look. Ji Liang didn't pay attention to anyone else. He threw the car keys to the waiting doorman. Looking at Xiang Sixia in front of him, his voice became much gentler.

"Is there another exchange meeting tonight?"

“Well, a salon for the design industry.”

Although the wind was not blowing, the night air was noticeably chilly. Ji Liang looked at Xiang Sixia's thin coat.

"Cold?"

"It's okay, I..."

Before Xiang Sixia could finish her words, she saw the man in front of her slightly open his coat, took a step forward, and hugged her in his arms.

I could hear the beating of his heart in my chest, and at the tip of my nose I could smell his fresh and cold breath, which was like that of cedar. What was going on, Brother Ji Liang?

Xiang Sixia's heart was also pounding. Fortunately, she put her hands in front of her chest, keeping a distance between them. Ji Liangge should not be able to hear her panicked heartbeat. However, Xiang Sixia felt it with her heart and found that his arms were really warm.

Ji Liang put his arms around the back of the person in his arms. Although he looked calm, he was very nervous. This was the first time he was so proactive, and he was also afraid that Xia Xia would be disgusted.

Looking at the person standing obediently in his arms without moving, Ji Liang felt relieved and a feeling of sweetness surged in his heart.

"Hello, sir, here are your car keys."

The car has arrived. The doorman, who has seen a lot of storms, is very calm and composed. He seems to have not seen what has just happened or the current situation. He maintains a high level of professionalism with a smile on his face.

Ji Liang took back his hand and took two steps back. Xiang Sixia was also awakened by the cold wind.

"I'll get in the car first."

After he finished speaking, without even looking up at the person in front of him, he walked directly to the car, opened the passenger door, got in, and closed the door, all in one go.

Ji Liang took the key with a smile on his face. He was tall and had long legs, so he walked around the front of the car in a few steps and got in. The car drove out quickly.

The hotel is not far from Xiang Sixia’s home, about fifteen minutes’ drive away.

Ji Liang glanced at Xiang Sixia, who had been silent since getting on the car, and spoke in a steady tone,

"Xia Xia, I'm coming to the hotel tonight to attend a catering exchange meeting."

So that's why we met, but it was just a coincidence that we were in the same hotel. Xiang Sixia was still a little shy and didn't know what to say, so he nodded to show that he heard it.

Seeing that Xiang Sixia did not respond, Ji Liang was not in a hurry. He looked ahead at the road and continued,

"The chef of this hotel recently came up with a new dish - the Dragon King Trilogy, which is pretty good."

Dragon King Trilogy? What's the name? Xiang Sixia tilted her head to look at him. Ji Liang knew that she was interested. He controlled the steering wheel steadily and told the story.

"There are three ways to cook lobsters. The first way is to remove the shell and cut the lobster into pieces. Steam it until half cooked, then add abalone sauce and stew it until it is flavorful. The taste is mellow but not heavy."

"The second way to eat it is to dice the lobster meat and steam it with eggs to make lobster custard, then drizzle a thin layer of special soy sauce on the surface. It is fresh and delicious."

"The third way to eat it is to blanch the lobster meat, let it cool, and then tear it into thin strips. Add mango, dragon fruit and kiwi, squeeze a little salad dressing on it, and the last step is to grate some lemon peel on the salad. The taste is relatively fresh and refreshing, suitable for any time of year."

Ji Liang spoke at a steady pace, just like a normal chat.

This is how they usually get along. On weekdays, when they go to taste delicious food together, Ji Liang will introduce to her the wonderful or novel combinations of these foods, and the special tastes that collide with each other. He likes to share, and she likes to listen. Even as an outsider, she can listen with relish, and the two of them can chat all the way.

Xiang Sixia also felt that it had to be said that even if the topic seemed boring to others, as long as they were with the right person, the two of them could have a good chat, and she and Ji Liang would never feel awkward or forced.

This kind of relationship was so comfortable that she gradually let go of the distance between her and Ji Liang, thinking that he was her second brother's friend.

Ji Liang went on to say that he knew how to talk to Xiang Sixia and how to make her interested.

"Also, there are people from other provinces coming to this catering party, so the dishes they cook are somewhat special."

"Why is it so special?"

The two chatted like this and the car stopped at the first traffic light. Xiang Sixia had regained his usual ease and was looking for a playlist to play music.

Ji Liang looked at Xiang Sixia, then turned around and tapped a few times on his phone. The name on the chat box read "Duoduo Flower Shop". Before the green light was about to come on, Ji Liang turned off the screen of his phone and put it in the middle armrest box.
