please save me save me

This is really a season so cold that people just want to hide in the quilt and never go out.

Qi Lin didn't feel anything.

He doesn't like winter.

But also doesn't like any season.

When it comes to the season you like, you have to live it.

Even if you encounter a season you don't like, you have to live like this.

So liking and disliking has no meaning at all, it just adds troubles.

He stood at the door of the restaurant, took off his gloves and put them in his pockets, then rubbed his hands and walked in.

There are surprisingly few customers during this time period, but the number of customers will gradually increase as soon as lunch time arrives.

In this small space, Lu Xiumu's figure is particularly conspicuous.

He was only wearing a white sweater, and a brown wool coat was placed on the back of a chair beside him.

Qi Lin thought, this should be the season when Lu Xiumu can wear long sleeves unscrupulously without worrying about being questioned strangely.

Qi Lin walked to that table, pulled away the chair next to Lu Xiumu, and sat down.

Lu Xiumu heard the friction between the chair and the floor, and turned to look at Qi Lin.

He held a cup of steaming hot water in his hand.But I have never seen him move. It seems that it is not used for drinking, but just to warm his hands.

"It's so early." Lu Xiumu greeted Qi Lin with a smile.

"You're the one who came earlier." Qi Lin smiled slightly.

Qi Lin picked up the glass on the table and poured himself a glass of lemonade.

"Didn't you come with Miss Nie?"

"Ah, no, she said she would come over later."

"This is not a good boyfriend, you should pick her up." Lu Xiumu joked.

Qi Lin just smiled and didn't speak.

He took out his phone and checked the time.

At this point, Nie Wanning should be almost there.

Qi Lin dialed Nie Wanning's number, and after a long prompt tone, he hung up automatically.

Nie Wanning didn't answer.

Qi Lin put the phone on the corner of the table.

He and Lu Xiumu continued to wait.

Meanwhile, Qi Lin kept tapping the table with his index finger knuckles impatiently.

After a long wait, Lu Xiumu couldn't help worrying: "Is something wrong with Miss Nie?"

Qi Lin let out a contemptuous "hum" from his nasal cavity: "What accident could happen to her, she is probably still wearing makeup now. Being late has become a habit of hers."

Unknowingly, a large number of customers flooded into this restaurant.

The seats around were almost full, and the originally deserted atmosphere suddenly became lively.

The noisy conversation also brought a touch of warmth to such a winter.

"Are you hungry? Do you want to order first?" Qi Lin suddenly asked coldly.

It took Lu Xiumu a long time to realize that Qi Lin was talking to him.

Before he could answer, Qi Lin beckoned a waiter over.

"Order at this table." His tone was low and cold.

The waiter came over, put the menu in front of them, and stood aside politely waiting.

"What do you want to eat?" Qi Lin first moved the menu to Lu Xiumu's eyes.

Lu Xiumu waved his hand: "Let's wait for Miss Nie to come before ordering."

"Let's order first. Otherwise, we shouldn't just sit here with nothing, and it's not good for others to look at."

Only then did Lu Xiumu compromise.He flipped through the menu with his fingers, and then said to the waiter, "One sukiyaki."

The waiter took it down immediately.

He looked at Qi Lin: "Sir, what do you need?"

Qi Lin just glanced at the menu lightly, and then said, "A bowl of mochi and red bean soup is fine, thank you."

"Okay, I will prepare it for you soon, please wait a moment."

The waiter took the menu back, turned and left.

After 10 minutes, Nie Wanning came late carrying a delicate new small satchel.

At this time, Qi Lin and Lu Xiumu's order had just been served.

Nie Wanning smiled, sat down on the seat opposite them, and said, "I'm really sorry, I'm late."

Qi Lin scooped up a spoonful of red bean soup, and said in a nonchalant way: "We were hungry just now, so we ordered first. You can see for yourself what you want to eat."

The atmosphere was deadlocked.

Lu Xiumu saw that the form was wrong, so he could only smile to ease the atmosphere: "Miss Nie, I recommend this store's Japanese-style chawanmushi, it's delicious."

Nie Wanning was also a little angry.

She felt really uncomfortable being treated so indifferently by Qi Lin.

The waiter came over and asked softly, "Hello, miss, do you need something?"

"Then let's try Japanese tea bowl steaming."

Then added: "Come on, I'm hungry."

Chawanmushi is ready in no time.

Looking at such delicately prepared food, Nie Wanning's mood immediately improved a lot.

And Qi Lin gradually lost his temper.

After all, Nie Wanning was always late for appointments in the past, at least half an hour.

He was angry this time mainly because he didn't want Lu Xiumu to wait for a long time.

He and Nie Wanning were the ones who made the invitation first, but he was late, and the impact was really bad.

Nie Wanning was determined not to worry about it anymore, and concentrated on eating the food in front of her.

On the way to eat, she secretly looked up at Lu Xiumu who was sitting opposite.

This was the first time she looked at Lu Xiumu seriously and carefully.

Lu Xiumu's first impression is calm and gentle.

The skin is more delicate than a girl's.

His eyes were dark in color with a cool light, quiet and beautiful.

Fortunately, he wasn't wearing a turtleneck sweater, the exposed white neck was really pretty.

Nie Wanning's eyes wandered for a moment.

She really couldn't feel disgusted with the man in front of her.

But her intuition told her that she couldn't have any good feelings for this person.

This man has too many secrets.

Nie Wanning watched Lu Xiumu eat with trepidation, he stopped after each bite, it took a long time just to chew.

So she asked curiously: "Mr. Lu seems to be serious about eating."

Lu Xiumu smiled: "Occupational disease. I always want to know how its taste is made, and then wonder if I can make some changes, develop a new method, and add it to the cafe I opened in the menu."

"Ah, Mr. Lu...can I call you Xiaomu too?"

Lu Xiumu said: "Yes, please feel free."

"Do you usually make everything in your cafe yourself?"

"It's fun to do it yourself when you're free."

"Next time I have a chance, I will definitely go to Wonderland again."

Lu Xiumu showed a smile like a spring breeze: "Okay, welcome anytime."

Nie Wanning fiddled with the spoon in her hand: "I just hope that I won't meet that wolf girl again next time."

"Wolf girl?" Qi Lin became interested, "Whose code name is this?"

Nie Wanning lowered her head in annoyance.

Why did I accidentally say it out! ?

Lu Xiumu thought for a few seconds, and then asked, "Are you referring to Axuan?"

"Hmm..." Nie Wanning replied in a low voice, "She just barks her teeth and claws like a wolf?"

Lu Xiumu and Qi Lin couldn't help laughing.

wolf girl...

This nickname is really very appropriate.

Nie Wanning asked a few more questions, and Lu Xiumu answered them all seriously.

After eating, Qi Lin pulled a napkin to wipe the corners of his mouth.Seeing that Lu Xiumu's seat is far away, it should be inconvenient, so he also pulled a piece of paper for him.

Nie Wanning coughed a few times and said seriously, "Qi Lin, get me one too."

Qi Lin was a little surprised: "Why? Isn't the napkin right in front of your eyes?"

Nie Wanning almost didn't roll her eyes: "Why? If you want to say why, it's because I'm your girlfriend."

Qi Lin was speechless, so he pulled a piece of paper and handed it to Nie Wanning.

Nie Wanning muttered softly: "Why do other boyfriends take the initiative to wipe their girlfriend's mouth, but my boyfriend always grinds when he gets me a napkin."

The three of them stood up and planned to leave.

Qi Lin said, "Well, Xiao Mu, I..."

Nie Wanning suddenly interjected, "Qi Lin, take me home."

Qi Lin opened his mouth, his Adam's apple wriggled up and down, but he couldn't say anything.

Lu Xiumu put on his coat and said sincerely: "Thank you for your hospitality today, I am very happy. It has been a long time since I went out to eat with others like this."

Qi Lin said anxiously: "Then, you can still come out to play next weekend."

When he said it, Qi Lin himself was slightly surprised.

Could it be that this is his true mood?

Lu Xiumu seemed a little embarrassed: "I may not be free next weekend."

"Do you have an appointment?"

"Well, yes. My brother wants to play golf, and I will accompany him." Lu Xiumu replied.

A sense of melancholy and loss welled up in Qi Lin's heart.

"Then, I'll contact you next time."

Lu Xiumu nodded to them and walked out of the shop.

Qi Lin and Nie Wanning walked side by side on the way home.

Qi Lin looked preoccupied and kept silent, but his steps were fast.

Nie Wanning pondered for a moment, then said, "Qi Lin, do you think that Lu Xiumu is a bit strange?"

Qi Lin turned his head to look at her, but his voice didn't fluctuate: "What's so strange?"

Nie Wanning, however, felt a little troubled: "This... I can't say it for the time being. But he always gives people a strange feeling."

It seemed that his smile, his gentleness, and his quietness were all deliberately disguised.

As soon as I think about this aspect, my heart feels trembling for a while.

Nie Wanning quickly expelled this unrealistic idea from her mind.

However, is there really such a person wearing a mask?

As Nie Wanning was walking, he suddenly put his hand into Qi Lin's pocket, which startled Qi Lin.

And Nie Wanning laughed as if he had succeeded.

"By the way, Qi Lin, do you feel that you and Lu Xiumu are too close?"

Qi Lin looked indifferent: "Is there any, Xiao Mu and I are friends, it's normal to get closer."

"Although they are friends, it's a bit strange. After all, they are two big men..." Nie Wanning said awkwardly.

"Nie Wanning!"

Qi Lin stopped suddenly, his tone a little annoyed.

"What's wrong?" Nie Wanning really couldn't figure out why Qi Lin was suddenly angry.

"I hate it when people speak in this tone, as if they are guessing."

Leaving those words behind, Qi Lin left Nie Wanning alone, and strode forward.

Nie Wanning was stunned for a long time before shouting loudly at Qi Lin's back: "Qi Lin, you bastard! You are so fierce!"

And Qi Lin seemed to have never heard of it, and he didn't even pause in his footsteps.

Nie Wanning seemed angry, and simply stayed where she was.

Seeing that Qi Lin had no intention of turning back to coax her at all, he had no choice but to chase after her full of anger and unwillingness.

She looked up at the rare clear sky.

Yes, it can be described as clear.

The blue is like a lake that has been silent for many years, as if it will ripple in the next second.

A flock of birds flew across the sky.

A feather dangled in the air, after all, it could not escape the huge gravitational force, and fell at a slow speed.

Qi Lin buried his head and kept walking.

He exhaled a faint white air, which surrounded his face, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.

After a long time, Qi Lin smiled wryly.

Sure enough, he ran away again.

He turned out to be such a cowardly person.

He was afraid that the same words would come out of Nie Wanning's mouth.

At that time, the relationship between him and Lu Xiumu will be irretrievably broken again.
