A powerful country in scientific research

Wu Hongying sighed in her heart. It had been several days, and she still didn't dare to recall what happened at that time.

At noon three days ago, Wu Hongying was having lunch with Wang Yanyan in the cafeteria. Before they finished eating, Xu Kai came to her and said that he had something to talk to her alone. Wu Hongying thought it was about Su Ran, so she followed Xu Kai to a quiet place outside.

Then Xu Kai said that he had liked her for a long time and wanted to date her, and then Wu Hongying ran away.

She had to run away. She really didn't know how to face Xu Kai... How could Xu Kai like her? This was too unbelievable. If Xu Kai hadn't looked so serious when he confessed his love, she would have thought he was playing a trick on her.

It's incredible.

From that day on, she started to avoid Xu Kai. Whenever Xu Kai came to talk to her, she would just keep silent. After a few days of this, she finally had a holiday and didn't have to see him anymore.

In fact, she didn't really hate Xu Kai, he was just very surprised. She always thought Xu Kai hated her, so he targeted her and picked on her, but if Xu Kai liked her, why did he always bully her before? ?

Wu Hongying felt that she couldn't figure it out and didn't understand.

Xu Kai, whom they were talking about, also arrived at the old restaurant and was talking to He Cheng and Su Ran at the door.

"You two came together?" Looking at He Cheng and Su Ran, who looked like a perfect match, he couldn't help but feel envious. It was his fault that he realized his feelings too late. If he had been like He Cheng, and recognized his feelings earlier and pursued the girl earlier, he wouldn't be like this now, with the girl he liked avoiding him every day.

Oh, I regret it...

He Cheng nodded. He didn't know why Xu Kai looked so depressed, but he still asked with concern: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

Xu Kai sighed, "It's okay, I just envy you."

He Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Envy me? Envy me of what?"

"I envy you for having a beautiful girlfriend."

He Cheng couldn't help but smile, "This is indeed something to be envied."

Xu Kai: ...I told you you were fat, but you were still panting.

Seeing Xu Kai looking like he was going to fight with him, He Cheng put his arm around his shoulders and said with a smile, "Let's go in and have dinner first. I'll chat with you after dinner."

Xu Kai immediately looked at He Cheng with tears in his eyes. He was right about the guy. His good brother still cared about him!

Su Ran watched the two interacting from the side without saying anything.

Did Xu Kai know about Hongying's blind date? Otherwise, why is he so listless? She will have to ask Hongying about it later~

The three people walked in chatting and laughing. As soon as they came in, they saw Wu Hongying and Wang Yanyan in the corner. Wang Yanyan also saw them and was waving at them.

Wu Hongying was very happy to see Su Ran. Just as she was about to say hello, she saw Xu Kai next to her. Wu Hongying suddenly wilted.

Su Ran and the other two walked towards the table.

Wu Hongying and Wang Yanyan sat together. Just as Su Ran was about to sit next to Wu Hongying, Xu Kai grabbed the chair first. The moment Xu Kai sat down, Wu Hongying dodged to the side. Her movements were not obvious, but Su Ran still noticed it. Su Ran raised his eyebrows and sat next to Wang Yanyan.

He Cheng sat next to Su Ran. There were only five people sitting at the table for eight. He Cheng asked the waiter to move the extra chairs aside. He Cheng pulled the chair towards Xu Kai, and Su Ran moved with him. They were having hot pot today, and although there was air conditioning in the room, it was better to sit farther away so that it would be cooler.

After everyone moved, Wu Hongying felt that Xu Kai was not so close to her, and she felt relieved.

She still didn't know how to face Xu Kai... If this dinner hadn't been arranged long ago, she would definitely not come.

Seeing that they were all present, the waiter came over and asked with a smile, "Comrades, would you like to order food?"

Oh my god, this table of people is so pleasing to the eyes, the men are handsome and the women are beautiful, she is almost dazzled, especially the man in the white T-shirt, he is so handsome...

Su Ran nodded, "Yes, please give me the menu."

After hearing what the fairy said, Xiao Hong quickly handed over the menu. The fairy was so beautiful that she was going crazy. She would tell the sisters in the kitchen that she saw the fairy! !

Su Ran didn't know the waiter's little thoughts. After she took the menu, she gave it to Wu Hongying.

After a few people looked at the menu and ordered their favorite food, they sat down and waited for the food to be served.

Xu Kai secretly glanced at Wu Hongying and found that she was a little absent-minded and her eyes were a little evasive. He sighed silently in his heart, blaming himself for realizing his feelings too late. Thinking of the stupid things he had done before, he didn't blame Wu Hongying for rejecting him so much, but he would not give up! He would give Wu Hongying time to let her slowly accept him.

He deliberately took the seat next to Wu Hongying, not to force her. Xu Kai just simply wanted to be closer to the girl he liked.

Because they were having hotpot today, the ingredients had been prepared long ago, so they didn't have to wait too long. In just a few minutes, the dishes were served one by one.

The dining table was already fully set up. Around the copper pot were various side dishes, including crisp lettuce, tender tofu, fresh lamb slices, white and tender chicken meatballs, etc.

Everyone can eat spicy food, so we ordered the red oil soup base. The red soup base exudes the spicy aroma of chili as it is heated for a longer time, which whets people's appetite.

After the bottom of the pot boiled, several people selected their favorite ingredients and gently put them into the steaming hot pot. After a while, the mutton slices were curled up by the heat, and as the faint fat jumped on the bottom of the pot, the rich aroma of meat spread all around.

Seeing that no one had started eating, Su Ran smiled and said, "Don't just stand there, eat quickly. Why are all of you so abnormal today?"

Today's performance really doesn't match everyone's image of a foodie.

Wu Hongying felt a little guilty. She forced a smile and replied, "I guess everyone is hungry. Eat quickly."

Feeling the burning gaze from the man next to her, Wu Hongying felt a little uncomfortable. She forced herself to focus on the boiling copper pot. For today's meal, she planned to eat more and talk less, finish her meal quickly, and go home quickly to stay away from the dangerous man on her left.

Wang Yanyan picked up a piece of mutton, blew on it gently, and then carefully put it into her mouth. The fresh aroma of mutton immediately spread in her mouth. The meat was tender and juicy. She squinted her eyes in enjoyment.

She loves hot pot!!

After swallowing the mutton, Wang Yanyan smiled and sighed: "We are blessed to be able to eat hot pot here today."

Su Ran was puzzled. What did eating hot pot have to do with her?

She looked at Wang Yanyan in confusion.

Feeling everyone's puzzled looks, Wang Yanyan explained: "Air conditioning! Without the air conditioning you invented, we wouldn't be able to eat hot pot in such a hot weather!"

Su Ran raised her eyebrows. That's right. Without air conditioning, it's too hot to eat hot pot in summer. She accepted the compliment.

Xu Kai nodded hurriedly, "Indeed, I only eat hot pot in winter before. I won't eat it at other times even if I want to. It's too hot and I can't stand it."

Wang Yanyan smiled proudly and said,

At that time, Wu Hongying, who was eating seriously, watched a pair of chopsticks stretched out to the side. The chopsticks quickly put a chicken meatball into her bowl and then retracted.

Wu Hongying looked up blankly, and when she saw Xu Kai's face, she suddenly lowered her head.

The round chicken meatballs were particularly eye-catching in the bowl. Looking at the white color, Wu Hongying felt her heart pounding as if it was about to explode.
