After buying the gifts for Qi Shen, I came out of the men's clothing store and it was almost eight o'clock.

Qi Huan and Chen Rang went for dinner.

I picked a local restaurant on the street. Qi Huan put down the things and went to wash his hands, "You order, don't wait for me."

Chen Rang didn't say much.

She only came back after ordering the food and was served one after another soon.

It was okay for one dish or two dishes, but all three dishes and one soup were served. When Qi Huan saw it, she liked them all.

She was surprised: "You know what I like to eat?"

Chen Rang did not admit it, "Come on whatever you want."

Qi Huan was silent for a while and said, "But, don't you like to eat light food? None of these..."

He can eat spicy food, but usually tastes light. She knows it after eating with him a few times. Today, the three dishes on the table are famous among spicy dishes.

"Can you concentrate on eating?" Chen Rang glanced at her, not wanting to talk to her about this.

"I'll just ask..." She curled her lips and stopped asking.

The two of them moved their chopsticks, and not long after, she whispered: "Is it because I have eaten together a few times before, so do you remember what I like to eat?"

Chen Rang looked up.

She leaned behind her back and raised her hand, "Please pretend I didn't say it."

Qi Huan calmed down, but it didn't last long. After eating half a bowl of rice, she drank water while holding rice grains, and suddenly said, "You know, my mother doesn't even remember what I like to eat."

What she thought of was like laughing, but the smile did not fall into her eyes.

"Just... others came to my house for dinner, and she knew very clearly what others like to eat, but she didn't know that those dishes were all I didn't eat."

Looking up at Chen Rang looking at her, she smiled, "What are you doing? I'm just complaining, not telling any tragic stories. Don't look at me with such a weird and pitiful look."

He closed his eyes: "I don't pity you, you're thinking too much."

"It's good if I don't feel pity for me." Qi Huan continued, "Hey, I'm used to it. I've been through so many years and it's not so much. It doesn't matter whether she feels hurt or not, anyway, it's my dad who is in charge of the family."

Speaking of Qi Chan, Qi Huan suddenly became interested: "My dad, it hurts me very much."

Chen Rang didn't know what to say, so he said no.

She ate a bite of rice and swallowed it, and suddenly felt sad: "But what I don't understand the most is my dad. I don't understand what is good about my mom and what is worthy of his liking. My dad is so good that she is not worthy of it."

Chen Rang didn't interrupt, listened quietly to her saying this.

It seemed that it was the first time she mentioned the family matters. The only time she suddenly called him in the middle of the night and asked if she could go to find him. He didn't refuse, and she ran to the basketball court. She was in a state that looked very depressed.

But asking more questions is not his habit, and he has never explored it since then.

"The only people who remember what I like to eat are my dad and the aunt at home." Qi Huan said, "Oh yes, Zhuang Mu knows it too." When she mentioned this name, she had a headache again, "Oh, Zhuang Mu..."

"This is done well." Chen Rang suddenly pointed to a dish in front of him.

"Hey, is that?" Before Qi Huan could taste it, he immediately started to turn on his chopsticks when he heard it. He forgot about the last second.

As the topic changed, Qi Huan talked about the monthly exam.

"My performance this time is quite stable. My dad is coming home, so I can have a good chat with him."

After a few words, she touched her father again.

"My dad likes to tell people all the messes, which makes every time the guests come home from childhood to adulthood, they call me and say, "Oh, this is your daughter who is very good at studying... I'm very helpless. I always feel that if he doesn't study hard, he will never show off when he goes out. How boring is that? The pressure is too great."

She looked at Chen Rang, "Speaking of it, you get the first place every time, why?"

Chen Rang asked back: "Can't you take the exam?"

"Of course," she said, "I'll just ask."

He gave the answer: "I have a high IQ."

The answer was very worthy of beating, she whispered a little.

Just about the results, he was indeed a bit cruel and unreasonable.

Just as Qi Huan was about to say something, Chen Rang suddenly said: "My mother likes me to get first place in the exam."

She looked up and said, "Your mom?" with her lips raised and smiled, "Is it because of this that you want to get first place in the exam? Then your mom is the same as my dad..."

"It's different." His eyes were lying in front of him, slowly picking up food, not looking at her.

Qi Huan felt something was wrong, so he tried to relax but asked carefully: "Where is your mother working now?"

Chen Rang's movement of holding the chopsticks paused for a moment, and in a very short moment, he followed it as if nothing had happened.

"have no idea."

"Your mom..."

"Move away." He said before she finished asking. The three short and calm words were not redundant.

She was stunned, "Then, the person I saw at your house last time..."

"My dad." He also answered calmly, but the more calm Chen Rang was, the more Qi Huan was like a tampering in his throat.

The drunken and red-eyed person fighting with him was his father.

Qi Huanzhi pursed his lips and did not continue asking.

"Have you finished eating?" Chen Rang put down his chopsticks.

Qi Huan still had half of the rice in his bowl, "Not yet..."

"I'll go smoke a cigarette." He didn't urge him, and got up and went to the bathroom.

That face looked dull, just like the white water he had just drunk.

.

The next day, when she arrived at school, during the second class, Qi Huan did not go to the convenience store with Yan Shulong and the others. She called Zhuang Mu to a quiet place to talk about the photos.

When she was named alone, Zhuang Mu guessed what she was going to say.

Standing face to face, Qi Huan asked, "Did you dug out the note and photographed it for Chen Rang?"

Zhuang Mu did not hide anything at all and admitted, "Yes."

He tightly clung to Qi Huan, seriousness that he had never been before, "I sent it to him, I..."

Before he finished speaking, Qi Huan clenched his fist and raised his hand and hit him in the stomach.

"Uh--"

He bent down with his stomach in his arms, frowning in pain.

She slammed her elbows on his back with another force.

Seeing that she was about to be beaten up on the spot, Zhuang Mu had no deep thoughts and quickly stopped, "Wait a minute...what are you doing!"

Qi Huan beat him a few times before stopping.

Zhuang Mu collapsed on the ground in pain. Qi Huan looked down at him and gritted his teeth and scolded: "Are you crazy? Ah? Can't you tell me if you have something? Even if I rarely go out with you recently, you are unhappy and tell me, do you make these messes, are you full of food?"

Zhuang Mu was stunned.

The look she looked at him did not change at all.

"I sent a text message..." He stood up on the ground and said before he could go down, she interrupted, "I know, don't you know you yet, I know your thoughts."

His expression froze, but she heard her say, "Don't you blame me for being more lustful than friends?" She raised her finger and poked him, "You are really an action-oriented person. If you have something to do, you don't say a word! You're not troublesome than talking to me in person..."

"Qi Huan." Zhuang Mu interrupted her.

"What are you doing?" she rolled her eyes.

"I..." He stared at her, his eyes connected, and she was open and honest, with clear and clean eyes without any impurities.

The hand beside him, his five fingers were stuttering tightly, and he squeezed it halfway through, and before he could even fist, he let go in panic.

"Speak." She frowned.

Zhuang Mu swallowed his throat, and after a while, he made a slow sound, "Yes, I'm just... I'm just unhappy that you value sex over friends."

She slapped him on the back, "You are really! Will you die if you tell me? Why are you pretending to be deep? Who can you show me?"

He closed his eyes and his eyelids drooped, covering the dark look in his eyes.

She slapped her a few more times, then raised her eyes, and there was no one else on his face, and he pulled the corners of his mouth, as he used to be joking, but he smiled a little less.

He raised his hand and greeted her head with a slight hello, complaining: "Who asked you to follow Chen Rang every day? When did you change to follower? I'll lose my face!"

"Get out!" Qi Huan kicked him.

The two of them had a few tricks. After enough trouble, Qi Huan expressed his voice and said, "If you have anything to do in the future, just tell me. Don't keep it in your heart. It's boring."

Zhuang Mu nodded.

She elbowed him, "If this happens, I won't pay for you to get married in the future. I will have to eat all your banquets by myself. You'll die!"

His eyes flashed, and he smiled and retorted, "I want you to worry about it. I want you to lack the amount of money you have. How many tables do you like to eat? I'll book you a place for you as long as you can eat."
