The distance between the two of them is enough for a little cutie weighing 200 pounds to sit on.

The driver was sitting in the driving position, ready to move, feeling like he could join in the fun.

But in order to save his own life and salary, and to support his family, he finally gave up this bohemian idea.

The atmosphere in the car was quiet for a while, with only folk songs echoing in the car, soothing and low.

The driver showed a smile of relief like an old father, and glanced in the direction of the two people reflected in the rear mirror.

Shi Jingnian was originally drawing a design draft at home, but suddenly he was asked to drive out, go to Beijing University to pick someone up, and then go to Jiakai Lane.

Eating the boss's melon or something...it's so happy.

You can still enjoy the meal while working, and watch a movie while receiving your salary. I instantly feel that I have earned a lot of money, and I want to stand in the corner and eavesdrop, putting my ear between Shi Jingnian and Ji Ning'an.

#Just try and die

After about ten minutes, Shi Jingnian looked sideways out of the window: "Stop."

The driver found a parking place and stopped the car, wondering if Mr. Shi really had a bright idea and planned to drive them out of the car, stay in the car with Miss Ji and wait for an hour before calling them back?!

The driver felt that he was a very competent driver. After observing the surroundings keenly, he became angry and reported to Shi Jingnian in a sonorous voice: "Sir, don't worry, there is no one around!"

"And there are no cameras!"

Shi Jingnian didn't understand what he was talking about, which was nonsense and illogical, so he didn't care about it.

Slender and clear fingers pushed open the car door, stepped out with long legs, walked around to the other side and opened the door for Ji Ning'an: "Come down."

The neon lights of the city in June are flashing, the dark sky is like an overturned inkstone, the stars are orbiting the full moon, and the night wind picks up the scattered dust that sanitation workers have just cleaned the streets.

Ji Ning'an walked out of the car.

Shi Jingnian closed the car door, his finger bones were white and beautiful.

The driver who had followed Shi Jingnian here looked at their backs and realized that all the happiness belonged to others, so I didn't take him with me.

The hot pot restaurant is located in Jiakai Lane. It is a century-old restaurant. You can’t drive in if you walk further in.

Shi Jingnian never eats hot pot, and he has never been to this place. He walked with her on the sidewalk: "If you are not familiar with the restaurant, please lead the way."

Ji Ning'an didn't know how things got to this point, and asked: "Professor Shi, can you eat spicy food? The spicy hot pot is really delicious, you will definitely fall in love with it."

Shi Jingnian paused for a moment: "Yes."

Ji Ning'an followed him, making Shi Jingnian feel like he had a little girl at home, very quiet.

He never likes to make noise or get close to others, but she is different.

Walking to the depths of Jiakai Lane, there were many pedestrians, and people passed by in twos and threes. Shi Jingnian moved closer without moving, his left hand hanging by his side. When there were many people, Ji Ning'an subconsciously reached out and tugged at his clothes.

Sleeve, then froze for two seconds, and quickly retracted his hand.

They saw a quaint century-old shop, walked in with Shi Jingnian, and came to an empty seat.

Shi Jingnian sat down with a normal expression and pushed the menu to her: "Let's order."

The decoration in the store is warm and clean, the light is dim and warm, and the hot steam rises from the hot pot, dispelling the chill of the night. The temperature is much hotter than outside.

His profile was slim, his long legs overlapped, very eye-catching, and he looked at her with his dark and calm eyes.

Ji Ning'an took the menu from him.

The waiter asked them what kind of pot base they wanted. Ji Ning'an's taste was spicy, and asked Shi Jingnian if the spiciest one was okay, and he said yes.

She ordered some more and then pushed the menu to Shi Jingnian: "Professor Shi, please order some more."

Shi Jingnian glanced at them twice, and there was no difference to him, so he ordered a few according to her taste.

Most of the people who come out to eat hot pot here are in groups, including couples and friends, and the atmosphere is noisy and lively.

Shi Jingnian's eyebrows furrowed slightly and then relaxed, but his face was still expressionless, with no sign of happiness or disgust.

Ji Ning'an was making condiments in the condiment area, with his back to Shi Jingnian.

The hot pot came quickly. She was really hungry and didn't want to be polite to Shi Jingnian again and again.

When he lowered his head, his eyelashes were slightly misted and curled like a doll. He said a vague and unfamiliar greeting with a sense of distance: "Professor Shi, please eat."

The night is long and dark at eight o'clock outside the window. The warm lights inside the window, the rising fog, and the noisy sounds make the atmosphere peaceful, like a cup of hot coffee on a rainy day.

It was a little hot in the store, so he took off his coat and put it on his side. His shirt was white, and he leaned against the back of the chair in a leisurely and elegant manner.

Hearing this, he picked up his chopsticks and took some food from the bottom of the pot. It was stained with a large amount of red oil. He swallowed it calmly. Under the warm orange light and the mist, his side face looked like it was stained with cold white enamel. It looked cool and beautiful.

.

"Is it delicious?"

"Yeah." Shi Jingnian put down his chopsticks and thought it was too brief, so he added, "It's quite delicious."

When the spicy oil slid down his throat, there was a burning pain, like the temperature that would boil a person. He lowered his eyes, poured a glass of water, and drank it without any abnormality.

Ji Ning'an was very happy to eat this hot pot meal. At first she might have thought that being with Shi Jingnian would be awkward, but in fact it was not at all.

As long as he wants to, he is really attentive, respectful, considerate, and polite without being offensive.

"Let's go."

Shi Jingnian said yes, stood up, picked up the windbreaker that was placed aside, put it on his arm, kept the shirt buttons at the top, and went to pay the bill.

"Let me treat you." Ji Ning'an took out her mobile phone, not wanting to owe him.

Before Ji Ning'an could scan the QR code, he pushed her back with moderate force. When the man looked down at her, he held the corners of his lips in a somewhat gentle manner, and took out the card from his wallet with his long fingers.

Come and hand it to the cashier with a voice that sounds like a smile but not a smile.

"Kid, don't fight with me."

Ji Ning'an stood behind him and watched him swipe his card with calm movements and a sense of security.

It was quite late coming out of the hot pot restaurant. The two of them crossed the road with traffic lights and walked side by side in the night.

The driver pressed his face against the car window, took out a telescope from somewhere and was talking on the phone with his assistant, gossiping about the boss's private life: "Did I understand it wrong?"

The assistant said deeply: "It seems it's time for us to assist!"

I have never seen a working man worry about his boss’s marriage. This shows how deeply Mr. Shi’s urge to get married is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"What to do?"

"Wait a while and you drive, pretending to accidentally swerve and let them hit each other."

"..."

"What you said sounds familiar."

He was fucking fired, where could he cry?!

The journey to Beijing University was uneventful. It was already nine o'clock in the evening. Ji Ning'an got out of the car, and Shi Jingnian also came down to see her off.

From this moment, Ji Ning'an truly realized that he had really resigned. If he had nothing to do in the future, he would never come to Beijing University again.

After thinking about it, I didn’t ask him, I just said goodbye.

He said: "Go back and have a rest early."

Ji Ning'an was walking on the campus path, surrounded by lush trees. When she turned her head, she could see the man standing behind her, with a third kind of stunning color in the moonlight and night, staring in her direction, pregnant with joy.
