Rebirth of the Hidden
Chapter 14
Gu Xinxin accompanied Lin Minming to the sporting goods store for two hours and finally found a * brand basketball with the signature of the famous football star ** on it, which is said to be a limited edition.
Lin Minming walked out of the shopping mall with a basketball in his arms full of satisfaction, only to realize that it was already dark and past meal time.
Gu Xinxin happily went out to eat, and urged Lin Minming to call home.
This is the first time that Lin Minming offered to eat out with his classmates, and Lin's mother happily agreed.Putting down the phone, she said firmly to Papa Lin, "That's the one for the morning run."
Father Lin: "..."
But He Junyi invited him to eat the last dinner.
He Junyi had just asked for a long vacation from the company, and he planned to buy something when he came out.
He doesn't just pick and choose decent things when shopping like ordinary men, and of course he doesn't grind like a woman.After choosing a few casual clothes and shoes in a familiar men's clothing store, he went to a nearby outdoor goods store to look at the new-style backpacks.
After accompanying Gu Xinxin and the others to visit the Chinese League, he will go abroad for a few months later. The climate of the town where GLF University is located is very different from that in China. There is a world-famous mountain near the town, which is a must-see for all outdoor sports enthusiasts.
He Junyi decided to take advantage of the exchange period to experience the fun of mountain climbing.
After buying a backpack, he saw Lin Minming holding a big basketball outside the mall.
He turned his back to He Junyi and said something to the girl opposite, his white and slender neck slightly bent, and after a while he shrugged as if he reluctantly agreed.The girl shouted "Thank you!" and disappeared happily, leaving him standing alone at the entrance of the mall.
I don't know why, but every time he sees this child standing with his head bowed, He Junyi always feels...a feeling of reluctance.
"What are you doing?" He stepped forward and suddenly patted Lin Minming on the shoulder.
Lin Minming was startled and almost dropped the basketball in his hand.In a hurry to save the ball, the schoolbag slipped down again.In the end, He Junyi helped him catch the schoolbag.
"He...brother?" Lin Minming's eyes widened, "Why are you here?"
He Junyi frowned displeased, what is Brother He?
That is, I haven't seen each other for more than ten days, and I added a surname in front of the word "brother", which sounds awkward.
"Brother?" Lin Minming yelled again, and this time he was right.
He Junyi frowned, and smiled slightly: "I'm here to do some shopping. Are you still going home?"
Lin Minming held the basketball in another hand, and said helplessly, "Xinxin said to go out for dinner, but she took a phone call from a classmate and left."
The girl just now was undoubtedly Gu Xinxin.
He Junyi pretended not to see it: "That guy is just so brainless. Let's go, let's have a good meal." He said, carrying Lin Minming's schoolbag on his shoulder.
Lin Minming: "Huh? No, no, I can go home and have dinner."
He Junyi ignored him.
His car was parked in the basement of the mall, and the two of them went down the escalator outside the mall, and Lin Minming was chasing him desperately until the garage.He Junyi stopped in front of the car, and he almost bumped into him.
When He Junyi was a freshman, his family gave him a small Land Rover. After driving it for almost three years, it was no longer a popular style on the street, but when He Junyi stopped next to the car, it still had a glowing feeling.
He opened the car door.
Lin Minming blushed, raised his head and hit the corner of the car door, almost crying from the pain.
He Junyi turned around and asked, "Are you okay?" His tone was very gentle, but his expression seemed to be teased by his cute and stupid appearance, and he even smiled.
Lin Minming lowered his head and didn't answer him. As a high school student, no, to be precise, he is a 26-year-old adult. The fact that he bumped his head while walking without long eyes still made him a little annoyed.
Especially when he was embarrassed in front of He Junyi who was younger than him at this time, he felt very unnatural.
He opened the door and quickly got into the back seat.
"Are you okay?" He Junyi asked again, this time he restrained his smile and looked very concerned.
"It's okay." Lin Minming covered his forehead and shook his head.
He Junyi felt strange why this kid always liked to lower his head, but he was sure of one thing - this little boy blushed just now.
He didn't have time to think about why he was blushing, but this kind of unintentional gesture was particularly easy to be bullied. He Junyi paused for a moment, reached out and patted the passenger seat: "You sit here."
Sitting in the back seat is the relationship between the driver and passengers, and sitting in the passenger seat is the courtesy between friends.
I don't know who said this sentence to Lin Minming in his previous life, but at this moment he suddenly remembered it clearly.Seems a little impolite?
But sitting in the front is a bit embarrassing.
Lin Minming pursed his lips and hesitated for a few seconds, then moved to the front seat with the basketball in his arms.
He Junyi was satisfied.
The car drove out of the shopping mall parking lot along the basement, and when it drove onto the road, Lin Minming looked out the window and suddenly let out a surprised "Huh".
He Junyi turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Lin Minming shook his head lightly.
He Junyi glanced at the side view mirror on the right, and found two boys standing far away in that direction.He is not very tall, and he wears the same school uniform as Lin Minming.
The two were talking, but they were so far apart that they couldn't hear them at all.
He withdrew his gaze and didn't continue to ask questions. He turned the car around a corner, and the two of them disappeared from sight.
25 minutes later, He Junyi drove the car to a private restaurant on the outskirts of the city.
When the waiter at the door saw his car, he greeted him with a smile on his face, automatically took the car keys and drove the car to the parking lot behind.He Junyi should be a frequent visitor here.
Lin Minming followed him in through the front door, walked all the way through the pavilions and went to the innermost room, feeling a little dazed.
Lin Minming has been to this store.
There was a familiar sweet smell in the air, which made him feel like falling into a dream.The memory here is too deep for him, as if it happened yesterday, he and He Junyi drank a big bowl of tea together on the antique wooden table in the warm afternoon, He Junyi asked lightly, what have you been up to recently?
Sometimes he would talk about his recent work in the conversation, and sometimes he would just listen to the other party talk about the trivial things in life, but more often, they just drank tea.
Warm and silent words are just occasional but also have a lasting impression.In the past, He Junyi's relationship with Lin Minming was not so much a friend as an unattainable companion.
...and now the dream is broken.
The two guests sitting here have not changed, but the time has changed.
Lin Minming woke up.
"What do you want to eat?" He Junyi handed him the menu, "The custard here is pretty good."
Lin Minming actually knows what to order without looking at the menu, but of course he can't do that now.After taking the menu, he flipped through it pretending to be thinking about it, but actually just glanced at the price.
Sure enough, it was as luxurious as ever.Lin Minming secretly stuck out his tongue.
He Junyi sipped his tea, turned sideways to look at the small pond in the yard.This season, the lotus is in full bloom. The owner has raised a pool of green leaves in the pond. The lotus in the bushes seem to be smiling slightly, which is pleasing to the eye and delicious.
Lin Minming put down the menu, followed the gaze of the other party and couldn't help but also stared at the lotus pond.
On a sunny summer evening, He Junyi brought him here for the first time. At that time, he didn't know that this paradise-like private restaurant was owned by the rich Zheng Kailai.
But I really fell in love with this piece of tranquility at a glance.
Zheng Kailai doesn't do business properly, he has to hire foreign aid to start a company, but he is at his best when it comes to eating, drinking and having fun.No matter at home or abroad, as long as it is delicious and fun, there are his footprints.It is really exciting to open a private restaurant by yourself.
It was also thanks to his good luck that he found He Junyi who was taken advantage of.Over the years, he has carried the banner to develop the company for him... Even if he becomes famous on his own, he will not forget to count him in.
Lin Minming chuckled, but as long as Zheng Kailai was mentioned in front of him, He Junyi would definitely get angry.Eating extravagantly in a private restaurant opened by others can be regarded as an indirect vent.In the past, He Junyi often brought friends here to eat and enjoy the scenery. It was not expensive or ordered, and he signed the boss's order every time.
An angry Zheng Kailai yelled.
But all of this is a matter of the previous life.Lin Minming sighed. He didn't know if he could finish what he needed to do in his life... His eyes dimmed slightly when he thought of this.
He Junyi: "..."
Those who were intoxicated in the memory didn't notice it, but the bystanders had already seen his strangeness.From the smile to the nostalgia to the last sigh, people can't help but be curious about this boy.
"Is there anything wrong with the menu?" He Junyi asked.
Lin Minming quickly closed the menu with a snap: "No, no."
He Junyi: "...then order."
In the end, the two chose to choose and ordered a few simple vegetarian dishes on "Chef's Recommendation".
Fortunately, the serving speed is very fast.
He Junyi was not used to talking while eating, so it happened to be in perfect harmony with Lin Minming's silence.The dishes are cooked in the original flavor, without the annoying polite words and chattering voices, the meal is very enjoyable.
Some people are chess friends and some are donkey friends, but Lin Minming and He Junyi can actually be regarded as fan friends to a certain extent.Not only are the tastes similar, but the eating habits are also similar.
In his opinion, it was precisely because of this that the two of them often went out for dinner in their previous lives.At least that's how he felt it should be.
After the meal, He Junyi ordered a pot of tea for digestion.
The private restaurant specially arranged for a waiter to make tea. At this time, they came up with tea sets. Lin Minming was stunned by the proficiency in a set of procedures.
The waiter has delicate features, and should be less than 20 years old, but the tea art is quite superb, and the movements made by the slender and white fingers are particularly beautiful.
While pouring tea, the little boy deliberately glanced at He Junyi with the end of his eyes, his eyes were very indifferent, but Lin Minming saw something unusual.
My heart was shocked.
He secretly looked at He Junyi, but the other party seemed completely unaware of it.
Think about it too.
After all, there is a nearly 30-year-old soul living in his young body, and it is not surprising that he tasted strange hints from others.But...he looked at He Junyi who was drinking tea seriously, this person probably wouldn't understand at all.
The little boy may only be disappointed.
In Lin Minming's heart, he actually admired this little boy's bravery.But apart from admiration, he seemed to be vaguely relieved, but he didn't know why.
After the waiter performed the tea ceremony, he stood up silently.After pausing for a moment, he said to He Junyi as if mustering up his courage: "Does the guest need anything else?"
Lin Minming also turned to look at He Junyi.
After He Junyi finished drinking the tea in his hand, he suddenly stood up.
Lin Minming walked out of the shopping mall with a basketball in his arms full of satisfaction, only to realize that it was already dark and past meal time.
Gu Xinxin happily went out to eat, and urged Lin Minming to call home.
This is the first time that Lin Minming offered to eat out with his classmates, and Lin's mother happily agreed.Putting down the phone, she said firmly to Papa Lin, "That's the one for the morning run."
