looking back inadvertently

Chapter 68 Christmas Eve

As soon as Wen Hao got mixed up, their table immediately became the focus of the audience, and they lost all intention of savoring the delicious food slowly, and hastily cleaned up the contents of the pot, even planning to order something, so they gave up.

Zhao Zhuoyang thought about changing the place to renew the stall, but it was getting late, and the other three were not his kind of night owls, so the proposal was rejected by three votes.

The face was thrown by Wen Hao. After Liang He and Shen Zhe came out of the restaurant, they didn't feel much uncomfortable. They only heard Zhao Zhuoyang swearing behind their backs, thinking that Wen Hao was stupid.Several people took different paths and separated at the crossroads.

They didn't feel cold during the meal, and when they came out to the street, the two of them didn't want to take the car. Anyway, they had a rest tomorrow.

"It's been a long time since this happened." Shen Zhe said.

"Party?"

"Yeah." Although I had dinner with the school teacher, my colleagues were different from the friends I knew before, "By the way, were you afraid of me before?"

"Me?" Liang He knew that he was asking about the time in high school, "Why am I afraid of you? It's not that I can't hand in my homework and memorize the text."

"Well," Shen Zhe nodded in agreement, "he's a good student."

What happened a few years ago is not far away when you think about it carefully. Liang He still clearly remembers that the four of them went to the beach one summer, camped, ate seafood, and said they were watching the sunrise together, but only he and Shen Zhe saw it... …

"By the way," Shen Zhe said suddenly, "When will we hang out together again?"

"Again?" Liang He came to his senses, "Have you also thought about going to the beach before?"

"Are you thinking too?"

"Yeah, it's very interesting," Liang He looked at him, "will it be just the two of us next time we go out? Where do you want to go?"

"I don't know." When he was alone, Shen Zhe didn't particularly like to go out, because he was in a relationship, and he would look forward to some activities that belonged to two people alone, but he didn't have a clue.

"Should I go to see the Olympic Games next year?" After all, it is in Beijing.

"It's hard to get a ticket, isn't it?"

"Maybe..."

Today's temperature was not as low as the previous two days, and they still felt comfortable after walking for a few minutes. They completely gave up taking the car and planned to take a walk back like this.

The road at night in winter is much more empty than in summer, and the lights and shadows created by the neon and street lamps are intertwined, making it look bright.Their pace is neither fast nor slow.

"Hey," Shen Zhe pointed to the intersection of the alley ahead, "There are baked sweet potatoes." He looked surprised as if he hadn't seen it for many years.

"You didn't eat roasted sweet potatoes after that?"

"I've never eaten something baked in this kind of stove," Shen Zhe said, "Don't you think it's more charred and fragrant?"

"That's true." Liang He liked to eat this kind of food when he was a child.

"I want to eat one."

"Then I'll break up with you."

"No," Shen Zhe refused seriously, "I wasn't full just now, I can eat a whole one now, you want to buy another one." The corners of his mouth raised after the words.

Liang He was silent for a while, then lowered his head and said, "You were willing to share one with me before."

The corner of Shen Zhe's raised mouth turned into an exaggerated smile: "I'm just kidding you."

But they didn't have much for dinner, so they specially picked a big sweet potato to share.It is still a variety with a honeyed skin. It looks sweet and tastes even sweeter.Even if two people eat separately, they will arrive at the door of the house by the time they finish eating.

In late December, Liang He participated in the company's annual meeting, feeling that another year is coming to an end.Unknowingly, the songs played on a loop in various shops outside were replaced by Western folk songs with a Christmas flavor. Christmas is coming.Decorated Christmas trees are placed at the entrances of some squares and shopping malls.

"It wasn't so lively before, right?" In Liang He's impression, the city didn't have such a strong foreign festival atmosphere a few years ago.

"Let's find a name to stimulate consumption," Shen Zhe was not surprised, "Christmas in college is almost like Valentine's Day."

Shen Zhe told him that on Christmas Eve there were activities and promotions in "Baiyang Plaza", and asked him if he wanted to go and see, Liang He agreed.

It was a Monday, and since they were going to go shopping, the two of them didn't plan to go home for dinner, so they made an appointment at "Baiyang".Liang He arrived early, so he sat at Shangdao Coffee for a while, and waited for Shen Zhe to come over. They went to the food court on the top floor together, had a meal of spicy crayfish, and then walked downstairs.There are more people in the mall than usual on weekends.

There is still more than a month to celebrate the new year, and I want to pick out new clothes, but the two of them looked around, and found that the sweater didn't meet the style they wanted, and the down jacket was inconvenient to wash, so they didn't think it was necessary to buy another one.

"It's better to be this one." Shen Zhe saw a blue-gray thin cotton jacket on the second floor.

"Is it too thin?" It's not something that can be worn in the near future.

"March and April are fine, there aren't many spring clothes..." Shen Zhe seemed to have made up his mind, "Do you want to buy the same ones as me?"

Liang He thinks it makes sense, and this model is really good-looking, fashionable and not too ostentatious.He nodded, blocked Shen Zhe's hand that was about to take the money, and took out the credit card from his bag: "I'll go buy it."

"Why?" Shen Zhe was puzzled, "Didn't you agree to buy your own personal items?"

Liang He smiled: "Didn't you also buy gloves for me?"

"This is much more expensive than gloves, you've lost money," Shen Zhe clicked softly, "Do you have enough money?"

Liang Hexu flicked his forehead: "I earn no less than you."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Two people live without too much pressure.Although Shen Zhe no longer keeps accounts, Liang He pays attention to their "family" expenses, and there is a lot of monthly balance; after a while, his income can be increased by another level, not to mention the daily expenses, and the two will buy a house independently It is not difficult to achieve.

Customers who spend more than [-] yuan in the mall today can get tickets to participate in the Christmas event.They don't buy things for the event, but since they have this opportunity, it's okay to join in the fun.

A temporary stage was set up in the middle of the first floor of the shopping mall, which was the venue for this event. There were several circles of people inside and outside, including participants and some simply watching.

Eating and wandering wasted time. When the two of them arrived, most of the activity had already gone on, and they missed the first two rounds of lottery draws.The staff put the tickets of the two into the lottery box and asked them to wear bracelets with corresponding numbers.

The activity was carried out in the form of a combination of games and evening parties. All the seats under the stage were full, and the two stood at the end. At that time, a boy was singing on the stage.

He didn't know where to find the singer, but it sounded average, Liang He whispered to Shen Zhe, "It's not as good as your singing."

"When have you ever heard me sing?"

"During the chorus competition," Liang He raised his eyebrows, "Forgot?" At that time, both of them were lead singers.

"Just a few lines..." Shen Zhe certainly had an impression after saying this, "I can sing better than you, too?"

"You praised me for singing well."

"Have it?"

Liang He didn't speak any more, he elbowed him, expressing his dissatisfaction slightly.

After the singing on the stage, it is the interactive part of the game. Several groups of spectators are invited to go up, tie balloons on their feet, and have a balloon stepping competition.

"The winners of the game will also be rewarded..." the host encouraged everyone in the audience with eloquence.

Having said that, Liang He and Shen Zhe were not very interested in such strenuous things, chatting while waiting for the final round of lottery draw later.

The competition went on for several groups, and there was still a lack of one participant in the last group. The host continued to mobilize: "Is there any friend who is willing to come up? None? Well, if everyone does not take the initiative, then I will call the roll call ah!"

The host quickly glanced down the stage, and finally locked on the back of the seat: "Come on, the gentleman at the back! The one in the dark blue coat... can you please come up?"

Liang He's attention was not on the stage at all, until the audience in front turned around and Shen Zhe also touched his arm, then he looked over there blankly: "Me?"
