he is afraid, he pretends

[Have you made it clear to others? 】

Wen Siyuan felt the vibration of the mobile phone in his pocket, took it out to look, and saw this new message from Xu Qiqi.

He didn't reply and put the phone back in his pocket.

Have you made it clear?

Of course not.

It was already ten o'clock at night when Wu Luming got home from the party on Friday, so naturally he couldn't have another chance to talk.

On Saturday and Sunday, Wu Luming participated in the pre-competition training for the math competition at school, and he returned home at six or seven o'clock at night.

In the past few days, Wen Siyuan has been surfing the Internet for a few days, and has a little understanding of the life rules of modern and contemporary young people.

He found that most young people in modern times are prone to emo at night, so he directly passed the time of night completely, because he learned that people are most likely to have negative emotions when they are in love.

He didn't want him to bring negative emotions to Wu Luming, so the conversation with Wu Luming was not an easy task for him, and he had to treat it with the most cautious attitude and consider it in many ways.

The time, place, and way of talking can't be sloppy.

Therefore, after much deliberation, today is the most appropriate time.

The aa restaurant opens at four o'clock in the afternoon, so the time for dinner can be controlled between four o'clock and six o'clock.

The time is right.

Wen Siyuan checked the environment of the aa hotel in advance. It has a large space, many green plants, and there will be piano music during dinner. It is an environment that is easy for people to relax.

The location is right.

As for the way of talking, Wen Siyuan had rehearsed it in his mind more than ten times before today.

As long as everything goes according to expectations, he feels that the best result mentioned on the Internet should be achieved - still friends.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, considering the traffic jam on the National Day, Wen Siyuan drove Wu Luming two hours earlier.

It was almost the same as expected, the original one-hour drive was blocked to one hour and forty minutes.

The two arrived at the shopping mall where the aa restaurant was located, and when they parked their cars to go, they happened to catch up with the opening of the aa restaurant.

There were not many people at this time, Wu Luming scanned the code at the door, and the two of them were led by the waiter to the reserved location.

The seat that Qian Weichang booked was actually good.

By the window, outside the window is the famous river view of City A. There are green plants behind the seats on both sides to separate them from other seats.

Wen Siyuan looked around and gave this seat a positive score in his heart.

Probably because the store has just opened for business, and many facilities are not ready yet.

The waiter took a long time to get the order machine and didn't come back.

It happened that there was no one else around, so Wen Siyuan called Wu Luming when he saw this, "Xiao Ming."

Wu Luming heard the voice, looked away from the window, and looked at Wen Siyuan with a puzzled expression.

When Wen Siyuan has no expression on weekdays, it is easy to make people feel serious and rigid. Whenever he adds a serious expression, it instantly gives people the feeling that Wen's classroom is about to start soon.

So before he opened his mouth to speak, Wu Luming sat up straight unconsciously when he saw that posture.

"I'll discuss a more in-depth topic with you later, don't worry..."

Before the word "Zhang" was uttered, the waiter suddenly sounded in an apologetic and hasty voice: "Sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time, because the store has just opened for business and all the equipment has just been brought out, so there was a delay."

Seeing the waiter coming to the table with the ordering machine, Wen Siyuan didn't continue, and stopped temporarily to let the waiter do her work first.

The waiter showed a standard polite smile, and asked while pressing the machine: "It's Mr. Qian Weichang, right?"

Wen Siyuan felt strange when he heard this strange name, when he saw Wu Luming on the opposite side nodded.

The waiter answered "OK" and said again: "Both of you can take a look at the menu at hand. Our side will start serving dishes at [-]:[-]. If you order now, we will meet you later at [-]:[-]." Give priority to the dishes from the two side."

aa restaurant is a Chinese restaurant, which specializes in some exquisite traditional dishes.

The two looked at the items they ordered, and just after they finished ordering, the waiter suddenly showed embarrassment.

Soon she apologized a lot: "I'm sorry, both of you, the store has just opened, and the main system's response is still a little slow, because the entire store is fully booked today, and all tables must be ordered with a reservation number. I'll take a look first. System, when the main system is running normally later, you may need to scan the QR code with me again, sir, I am very sorry to cause trouble to you two, we will make up a drink for you later, do you think it is okay?"

The two of them were not in a hurry to eat, Wu Luming agreed to the waiter, and the waiter apologized and left in a hurry.

The waiter left, Wu Luming looked at Wen Siyuan and took the initiative to continue the topic just now: "Brother Yuan, what did you want to say just now?"

"Let's talk about it when you come back after scanning the QR code." Wen Siyuan responded lightly, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked again, "Who is Qian Weichang?"

"My classmate. He made a reservation here. He couldn't come here temporarily. Knowing that I didn't make any arrangements on November [-], he transferred the reservation to me."

"He made a reservation?" There seemed to be a little thought in Wen Siyuan's voice.

Wu Luming raised a smile: "Well, he said it's a two-seater, just in time I thought I hadn't invited you to dinner alone since I lived in your house, so I invited you here."

"Because of this?" Wen Siyuan blurted out.

"Huh?" Wu Luming didn't immediately realize the meaning of Wen Siyuan's sudden words.

But before he could respond, Wen Siyuan quickly answered, "It's okay."

Just as Wu Luming was about to speak, the phone on the table vibrated several times.

When the screen lit up, he glanced and found that it was a message from Qian Weichang.

A large piece of speech and a picture.

Wu Luming unlocked the phone and found that the picture was a QR code.

The voice only took a few seconds, he clicked on it, and the phone automatically played the hands-free.

[Brother, I suddenly received a text message saying that the QR code has been reset, remember to scan this latest one when you arrive at the hotel later! 】

After Wu Luming finished listening, he was picking up his phone to reply when he suddenly noticed Wen Siyuan's gaze on the opposite side.

He looked over and saw that Wen Siyuan's eyes seemed to be on the phone, and there was a little curiosity in his eyes.

Seeing this, he temporarily stopped replying to the message, and first handed the phone to Wen Siyuan.

"He is Qian Weichang." He said to Wen Siyuan.

Wen Siyuan heard the sound, first raised his eyes to look at Wu Luming, and then returned to the mobile phone that Wu Luming handed over.

Qian Weichang's profile picture was himself, without a face, focusing on his bronze-skinned eight-pack abs.

The moment Wen Siyuan saw the head portrait, he subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Wu Luming.

Seeing Wu Luming's puzzled expression, he looked away again and looked at the phone again.

Apart from the two recent messages sent by Qian Weichang on the screen of the phone, there are four or five more messages on it.

The message showed that the time was past ten o'clock last night.

Qian Weichang: [Brother Ming!Rivers and lakes emergency!Give a solution to the penultimate question on the third page! 】

The following is the expression pack of the cat rubbing.

Wu Luming returned a photo of the problem-solving process he took.

There is also an emoji package below, which is a cat patting the head of another cat, asking him to call him daddy.

Wen Siyuan saw the emoji, and then looked at Qian Weichang's profile picture.

His eyes swept back and forth between the two for several times, and once again raised his eyes to look at Wu Luming.

Wu Luming was watched twice in a row, and it was inevitable that he felt strange. When he took back his phone and was about to watch it, Wen Siyuan suddenly asked, "Do you often chat?"

"Fortunately, we only talk a few words every day."

As Wu Luming said, he glanced at the chat records.

It was very simple. Qian Weichang asked him about the problem-solving process, and he patted Qian Weichang.

In their dormitory, cat emojis belonged to macho emojis, and everyone would post them casually when chatting, so he subconsciously didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Every day?" The moment Wen Siyuan captured this word, what Xu Qiqi swore to him a few days ago flashed in his mind.

——If people are not interested in you, can they chat so much nonsense with you?

so many?

Wen Siyuan recalled the chat history between him and Wu Luming, it seemed that it was still stuck on last Friday.

At noon last Friday, Wu Luming asked him if he wanted to go to the supermarket.

There are no cat emoticons.

Wen Siyuan fell into a brief silence.

At this moment, a sudden burst of crying attracted the attention of the two of them.

The seats of the two are connected to other seats on one side, and to a corner on the other. Entering the corner seems to be an employee-only area.

However, because there are green plants behind the seats, even if there are people coming and going around the corner, it will not affect them much.

Looking for the sound of crying, the two looked around Lu Zhi, and saw a young woman and a little girl who looked like three or four years old.

The cry came from a little girl.

The woman squatting in front of the girl showed anxiety: "Xiaoying, you are obedient, mom will be back soon, look, mom is there."

The woman said, and raised her finger to the cash register not far away.

I don't know if other people know that aa restaurant doesn't start serving food until 04:30, it will be around [-]:[-], and there are still not many people in the restaurant.

At the cash register not far away, many waiters stood in two rows, as if the foreman was giving lectures before opening.

"You can see your mother as soon as you look up. It takes only 5 minutes. Mom will come back immediately. When she comes back, she will take you to play with Auntie Zhang's daughter, okay?"

The little girl shed tears and didn't say yes or no.

The woman wanted to say more, but the foreman at the cashier suddenly yelled.

The anxiety on her face became even worse, and then she probably couldn't do it at the expediency, so she kissed her daughter's forehead and hurriedly said: "Don't run around, just wait here for mom, mom will be back soon!"

After speaking, she hurried to the cashier.

The little girl stood where she was, watching the woman running away, her choking voice gradually became louder, and when she finally closed her eyes, she was about to burst into tears with a "wow", when suddenly a voice sounded first.

"Hi." The voice was gentle and sweet, reminding the little girl of a big brother who had dimples when he laughed in a children's program she often watched.

Her attention was temporarily diverted, she opened her eyes with sobs, and saw the person who walked up to her and knelt down at some point.

This person also has dimples.

Seeing the familiar dimples, the little girl did not continue to cry, but choked up and asked, "Who are you?"

The boy squatting in front of her smiled, his dimples became more obvious.

"I'm a magician," she heard the man say.

"Magician?" The little girl blinked curiously.

Wu Luming nodded, then took out a lollipop from his pocket, put it in his palm and spread it out in front of her.

"What is this?" he asked.

"Lollipop." The girl replied softly, and then swallowed obviously.

Wu Luming smiled lightly: "Alright, then look carefully now."

As he said, he folded his hands, and then covered the closed hand with the other hand, and handed it to the little girl: "Blow."

The little girl sighed obediently.

Wu Luming clasped his hands in front of the girl and shook them twice. When he opened his closed hand again, there was nothing in his hand.

"No more." The little girl whispered in surprise.

Wu Luming raised a smile: "Yes, I was eaten."

"Eat... dropped it?" The little girl was surprised at first, but slowly the surprise faded away. She seemed to have just realized that tears gradually accumulated in her eyes, and she looked helplessly at Wu Luming's empty palm, and murmured, "Strawberry flavored." ,there is none left."

Seeing that tears were about to fall, Wu Luming raised his hand and rubbed her head, smiled and said, "I lied to you."

As soon as he said those words, two eyes instantly fell on him.

One is the little girl's hopeful gaze, and the other is Wen Siyuan's gradually complicated expression behind him.

Wu Luming didn't notice the gaze behind him, transformed the lollipop into a new one, and gave it to the little girl.

The little girl took the candy, as if she was about to salivate in the next second, but she still obviously endured and said: "But my mother said that you can't eat the candy given by others."

"Then just wait for mom to come back later, and get mom's consent first."

The little girl seemed to think it was feasible, nodded her head quickly, and smiled with tears hanging down: "Thank you, big brother!"

Wu Luming also smiled at her, then got up and was about to go back to his seat, when the waiter who was in charge of their table came just in time: "Mr. Qian, the system is back to normal, is it convenient for you to come with me now?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Luming nodded, greeted Wen Siyuan briefly, and left with the waiter.

After Wu Luming left, the little girl cherished the lollipop and turned her head to search for her mother.

After searching around, she finally found it. While wiping her tears, she stuck the lollipop to the side of her face, and smelled it if she couldn't eat it.

Smelling and smelling, she suddenly felt as if someone was watching her.

She turned her head again in doubt, and soon found that someone was really looking at her at the table seat next to her.

The man looked very similar to the "handsome guy" that my mother often called out when watching TV, but the difference was that he looked fierce.

Very fierce, and kept staring at her.

The little girl thought of the strange uncle her mother had mentioned for a moment, and she leaned against the wall next to her with some fear, only to find that the man was still looking at her.

Just when she was about to run away in fear, she suddenly realized that the strange uncle looked like a lollipop in her hand.

She used her brains, and finally mustered up the courage, looked at the man sitting by the window and asked, "Uncle, do you want candy too?"

The man was obviously stunned by her question, but he didn't answer right away. Instead, he stared at the candy in her hand for a long time before uttering two words: "No need."

"Oh..." The little girl elongated her voice, slowly took the candy back, and secretly stuffed it into her pocket.

After stuffing it into her pocket, she found that the strange uncle really didn't look at her anymore.

When Wu Luming reconfirmed the menu with the waiter, he found that the little girl was no longer there.

There was an extra bottle of drink on the table, and the glasses in front of the two of them had already been filled with drinks.

People began to enter the restaurant one after another, and the surrounding gradually became lively.

Wu Luming returned to his seat and sat down, and said to Wen Siyuan: "I just ordered the food over there, Brother Yuan, what did you just say? You can say it now, there should be a while before the food is served."

Wen Siyuan didn't respond immediately.

Wu Luming waited quietly for a long time before waiting for Wen Siyuan's reaction.

Wen Siyuan suddenly picked up the cup containing the drink in his hand, took a sip, and then said with a serious expression: "This drink is delicious."

Wu Luming waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for the next sentence. Then he suddenly realized that Wen Siyuan was... answering the question he just asked?

He hesitated for a moment, and finally asked aloud: "You just said that we need to discuss in depth..."

Wen Siyuan looked down at the drink box on the table.

His eyes swept over the production date, and the next second he raised his hand to pick up the drink, and said in an academic tone, as if that was the case: "Well, so let's start with the production year and discuss it in depth. Why is this drink so delicious?"

The author has something to say:

Xiaowen: Good chatting is love, and you only lie to the people you like?

Thank you for the invitation, the night has not yet arrived, and I am already emo in advance :)

Friends, because of the clip on Saturday, the next chapter update will be at 11 o'clock on Saturday night~
