Xu Shuangmian shook her head with a wry smile, and said, "I really don't have anything I want. Cheng Xuan is just joking, don't take it seriously. I don't have any friends, and it's a way of saving face for me to have a meal together on my birthday."

"That's for sure." After Chen Chen finished speaking, he thought that at least he had dealt with this matter.

Cheng Xuan was unwilling to let them go: "He is giving you two time to think about it, and then send it together on your birthday. You two brothers, don't let people down."

I can hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth day.

When the main course was served, Cheng Xuan grabbed the steak knife and stopped talking.Jin Zhijian and Chen Chen took Xu Shuangmian to chat about family issues, but they were not indifferent.

While Xu Shuangmian answered their questions, he cut pieces of meat to eat from time to time.The person next to him suddenly handed him a small piece of steak that had been cut into small pieces, intending to take away the steak that Xu Shuangmian hadn't touched yet.He caught sight of the teasing eyes of Chen Chen and Jin Zhijian, and he didn't have the guts to accept it, so he quickly said to Cheng Xuan: "I know how to cut it myself, you eat yours."

"Then stop talking to them and eat quickly." Cheng Xuan frowned and taught him: "It will be cold later, and my stomach won't digest after eating."

The two of Jin and Chen were bored, and they didn't want to be annoying, so they calmed down to eat.

"Understood!" Xu Shuangmian grabbed the knife and went to cut his steak, but the more anxious he became, the more he couldn't get it right. He didn't get a piece of steak after cutting for a long time.He raised his head and wanted to exchange a steak knife with the person next to him, but found that he was holding the plate of steak he had cut in one hand.He had no choice but to exchange with Cheng Xuan.

"Mianmian."

"what happened again?"

"The table knife you just used."

Chen Chen burst out laughing, Cheng Xuan glanced at it, then lowered his head and continued to eat his own.

"Understood!" Xu Shuangmian also lowered her head slightly, unable to see her face clearly, but her ears were indeed flushed.

After eating, the four of them sat in the small hall and sipped tea.

Jin Zhijian took a sip of tea and asked, "Amian, do you live in the same room as your brother or separately?"

He buried his head in drinking tea, Cheng Xuan couldn't see it clearly, but he was basically sure that Jin Zhijian was smiling.

"Whatever is convenient for you." Xu Shuangmian's face was still flushed.

Cheng Xuan received it quickly: "Don't bother Mr. Jin, I can just live in a room with him."

After speaking, he was stunned again.Today Xu Shuangmian didn't bother to live with him, but he made the habitual arrangement first.

Hearing what Cheng Xuan said, Jin Zhijian asked someone to arrange a room for the two of them.Chen Chen had a rich nightlife almost every night, so he didn't plan to stay longer, and hurried down the mountain after eating.

"Brother Enxu will stay on this mountain tonight?" Xu Shuangmian asked.

"Ah?" Jin Zhijian lost his mind for a moment, "Yes."

"Can you introduce me to the chef just now?"

Cheng Xuan was upset.The cook's cooking a few years ago was very suitable for Xu Shuangmian's appetite. Now that he sees him, he wants to make friends.At this time, why didn't Xu Shuangmian say that his grilled fish was his favorite.

"If you want to get to know each other, just call him over now."

Xu Shuangmian shook her head with a wry smile.Although he is the young master of the Cheng family, he has been living abroad on an equal footing with people of the same age around him for many years, and he really can't do the same way that Jin Zhijian and their superiors make friends.

"I'll go find him myself."

"Alright. If I introduce the two of you, he will definitely not like you." The bitterness that flashed across Jin Zhijian's face made Xu Shuangmian think that he was dazzled.

He went on to say: "He stays in the kitchen when he has nothing to do. If you want to go to him, just ask the waiter to take you to the back kitchen. I won't accompany you. I just returned to City C last night. I'm too tired. I want to go to the kitchen." Rest for a while, you do what you want."

"Okay, thank you. Brother Enxu, rest well." Xu Shuangmian waved him goodbye slightly.

Cheng Xuan nodded to indicate that he knew.

Jin Zhijian got up to leave, and the room fell into silence again.Cheng Xuan cleared his throat, and was about to speak, but Xu Shuangmian picked up the teacup, drank the remaining sip of tea in the cup, stood up and said, "I want to meet the chef just now, ah Xuan, if you are tired, go first." Go back to the room and rest. I'll find you later."

"What's wrong with you today?" Cheng Xuan frowned.

Xu Shuangmian turned to look at Cheng Xuan, "What's wrong?"

"Why are you unhappy?"

It's boring to tell the truth about the past, Xu Shuangmian didn't want to bring it up again, and wanted to leave, but Cheng Xuan grabbed his wrist and wouldn't let go.

"Didn't you send Yi Xin a lot of new jobs? Then I have to meet a few new friends. Do you want me to be the only one in my life forever?" He looked back at Cheng Xuan, because he was holding a lot of breath, his chest Ups and downs, panting and roaring.

Cheng Xuan looked at him in astonishment, then turned his head slightly, no longer looking directly at Xu Shuangmian, and relieved some force from his hands.

The room was quiet for a while, Xu Shuangmian was secretly annoyed that he was too emotionally out of control today, he was about to coax Cheng Xuan, when he heard Cheng Xuan ask: "Didn't you have to come back?"

For some reason, maybe he was hallucinating, and there was a trace of grievance and resentment in his words.Xu Shuangmian was angry and wanted to laugh at the same time, so he made sense.Isn't it natural to want to go home?Who doesn't want to go home after being sent abroad for so many years without making a sound, let alone the person he likes is still in the country.Cheng Xuan arranged so many new jobs for Yi Xin in order to prevent the two from meeting each other, and finding someone to follow him every day, would make everyone angry.He is still wronged here.

"I had a nightmare last night." Xu Shuangmian could say more to question Cheng Xuan, but he decided to forget it, he was reluctant to make Cheng Xuan feel uncomfortable.

Now Cheng Xuan didn't know how to answer.Xu Shuangmian's unsatisfactory things before going abroad, Cheng Xuan can count them one by one on his fingers.He knew he was wrong and felt guilty. He always felt sorry for Xu Shuangmian.

"Mianmian, don't keep thinking about nightmares. Go find the chef, I'll wait for you in the room to deal with work." After speaking, he let go of his hand.

Xu Shuangmian drooped her eyelids, twitched the corners of her mouth, said nothing, and strode towards the box door.

He forgot that even though he was reluctant to make Cheng Xuan sad, Cheng Xuan was always willing to make him sad.

Xu Shuangmian was led into the back kitchen by the waiter.

It's past dinner time, there were not many guests in the orphanage, and the back kitchen was very cold.There is only a thin figure from the back, wearing a black chef uniform, with the sleeves rolled up to reveal the forearm, holding a napkin in the left hand and a spoon in the right, as if setting a plate.Xu Shuangmian approached and leaned on the cooking table to look at this man. His hands and fingers were slender and white, but upon closer inspection, there were many small scars.

After a while, the man put down the spoon and napkin, straightened up and stood where he was, seemingly lost in thought.Seeing that he was motionless, Xu Shuangmian thought it was finished, so she stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder lightly.He recovered, turned around and saw Xu Shuangmian, frowned and took a step aside.

It was very obvious that Xu Shuangmian's attitude was not welcome.
