Chapter 8

At [-]:[-], the two sat face to face in a roadside restaurant, each with a menu.

"Actually, I want to say, it's only 20 yuan, there is no need for AA, I think you are still a student, how old are you?" Qi Tian said while flipping through the menu.

"Junior, I will be senior after the summer vacation. I don't want to have an AA with you, but I want to invite you for this meal. You can see what you want to eat."

Qi Tian turned around for a while, feeling that he was sitting here inexplicably, since he had already eaten.He put away the menu, and said to the waiter standing behind him, "Hello, is there anything you can recommend? Not too spicy or too oily, it's better to be healthy." Shen Bai looked up at Qi Tian, ​​his eyes The meaning here couldn't be more obvious, "Health? How old are you?"

Qi Tian understood what he meant, "Let's think about it, I've only graduated for a year, and I'm 24 this year, not a few years older than you, but keeping in good health is what I need in my career."

Shen Bai "oh" for a while, and said to the waiter, "Well, please bring three of your health-preserving dishes first." The waiter took their menus and left.Shen Bai glanced at the store, got up and went to the disinfection cabinet to get two pairs of chopsticks, took out two napkins from the lunch box and spread them in front of himself and Qi Tian, ​​and then neatly placed the chopsticks on them.

Qi Tian stared at him as he completed this series of actions, "You are quite particular about eating out!"

"Really? It's not about being particular, it's about getting used to it. I've been like this since I was a child." Shen Bai pulled out the stool and sat down, "I'm three years younger than you. What do you do to pay attention to health maintenance?"

Qi Tian leaned back, leaned against the back of the chair and exhaled comfortably, "Hi, I am a person who eats by mouth. Our order is here."

The waiter puts one end of the tray on the corner of the table, and then removes the contents one by one and puts them on the table.A plate of stir-fried seasonal vegetables, a vegetable salad, and a large bowl of lotus seed soup.

"Please use it slowly, I will bring you the spoon and small bowl later."

Shen Bai looked at the three things on the table, and didn't know what to say for a moment, what was it about treating Xiao Hei to a meal after so much difficulty, would he dislike his shabby status and not invite him to a big meal.

Qi Tian cleared his throat, "This is really healthy. It's okay. I actually ate it at night. I just moved here today. When you saw me, I was actually taking a walk." He saw that Shen Bai had been staring at He didn't mean to speak, "I'm not a local, I just live here temporarily. Today, I heard an old man say that the scenery nearby is good. I stopped by to take a look when I was throwing out the trash. I didn't expect to meet you again." .and then we can sit here and have supper..."

"Oh, I just came out after eating tonight. My roommate went to buy special products for the holidays. It's not interesting for me to go back to the dormitory too early by myself. Our school is very close to here, and then I walked over. What a coincidence I still met you." Shen Bai took the small bowl from the waiter, put a bowl of porridge for Qi Tian and put it in front of him, "Wait until next time, I will invite you next time, let's make do with something today .”

Qi Tian nodded in agreement, then picked up a spoon and took a sip. The porridge was bland and tasteless; he picked up a portion of stir-fried seasonal vegetables with his chopsticks, and frowned again. It's been a few days.

Seeing him like this, Shen Bai smiled, and pushed the vegetable salad in front of him, "Try this, I ate a little and it's not bad, it's sweet and sour, it should suit your appetite."

Qi Tian shook his head and put down his chopsticks, "Eat it, there are tomatoes in this fruit salad, I have never liked tomatoes since I was a child. Don't worry about me, I'll just have some porridge."

Shen Bai stuffed two mouthfuls of vegetable salad into his mouth, chewed it twice, and there was a crisp sound of food breaking, "You don't even like tomatoes? Let me tell you, I will take you to try someday when I have time The noodle shop at our school. His tomato and egg noodles are super delicious, and I, who never ate eggs since childhood, was conquered by his noodles.”

Qi Tian nodded with a smile, continued to stir the bowl of porridge in front of him with a spoon, while thinking about how to arrange the schedule when everyone will meet on the first day of the radio drama tomorrow.Shen Bai was taught at home since he was a child, "When eating, you should use your hands and mouth and talk less." At this time, the two of them were facing each other, one was drinking porridge in silence, the other was eating vegetable salad in silence. There were not many people in the restaurant. The sound of people's tableware colliding was particularly abrupt.

Shen Bai raised his head and found that Qi Tian picked out the last lotus seed in the bowl and put it into his mouth. His mouth squirmed lightly, and he ate seriously. Looking at the person in front of him eating was really comfortable, as if what he ate was not lotus seeds, but It was his own heart that had been floating lightly for more than twenty years, itching uncomfortably, Shen Bai couldn't help laughing as he thought about it.

"Have you finished eating?" He asked the person in front of him softly. Seeing that he didn't answer himself, Shen Bai stretched out his hand in front of him and shook his thoughts, "Have you eaten well? Just go to checkout, it's getting late."

Qi Tian glanced at his phone, it was already ten o'clock, he stood up and was about to pay the bill, when Shen Bai put his hands in front of him, and shook his head at him, "Why, you forgot, I'm treating you to this meal of."

Qi Tian spread his hands helplessly, "Okay, please treat yourself, today is a treat for the children, happy."

The two walked out of the restaurant, and there were very few people walking around the city river.

"Little friend, how did you go back?" Qi Tian turned around and asked the person behind him who was answering messages with his mobile phone. Just when Shen Bai paid the money, his mobile phone rang several times.

"My roommate just asked me why I haven't gone back. It seems that they have finished shopping and went back." He stuffed his mobile phone into his front trouser pocket, "I walked back, the school is not far from here, only 10 minutes away, take a walk It's time to eat. It's getting late, didn't you just tidy up your new home today, and you're quite tired, go back to sleep early."

Qi Tian waved his hand and walked in front, Shen Bai followed, "Aren't you going back?"

"Send the kids back to school and go back to bed first. I ate something from the kids today, which caused the kids to go back to school so late. As the grass of the motherland, and the kids are still so cute, I have to send you off. I'm afraid that you are alone. It's not safe." Shen Bai smiled, thinking that this person can really speak.He looked up at the person in front of him, Shen Bai's height is 178 now, but this person is half a head taller than him, so he must be 182 no matter what.

"You said this to four children just now. It's not embarrassing for the person you called, but it's embarrassing for me. I have a name, my name is Shen Bai, Shen in Shenyang, Bai Bai in the daytime. What about you?"

"My name is Qitian, Qi from Qilu, Tiantian during the day." Qitian took out his phone and glanced at it, and continued, "I saw that the nearest school nearby is Huada University, and you said it would only take ten minutes to walk back. Are you supposed to go to school here?"

"Haha, Sherlock Holmes? You're too accurate. Let's go. I'll lead the way. Just pass the traffic light and turn left."

Shen Bai's steps were a little too big, Qi Tian took a few steps to follow, "You seem to know Peking Opera very well?"

"No, no, there are old people in the family who like it very much. I have heard about it since I was a child, and then I know it. I am not a master. You guessed it wrong. It's just that today's "A Dream of a Lady in Spring" happens to be my favorite."

Qi Tian sent Shen Bai to the downstairs of the dormitory, said good night, and then turned to leave.

"Hey, no, wait a minute," Qi Tian turned around suddenly, and said to Shen Bai, "Didn't you say that you will invite me to eat noodles next time? You don't even know my contact information, how can you invite me, you can't Always meet by chance, I can't guarantee that we will have such a coincidence next time."

Before Shen Bai had time to think, Qi Tian had already sent his mobile phone to him, and opened his WeChat QR code.

"Scan and add a friend."
