I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 223 Chance Encounter

What is life? Life is about moving from one meal to the next.

If you add the word "happiness" in front of life, it means eating from one meal to the next with the person you like.

So, eating is probably a beautiful thing.

Faced with Lao Zhao's invitation, Li Peifeng did not hesitate and got up to attend the appointment.

What's more, this meal was invited by Zhao Qingge. Li guessed that it was Zhao who wanted to repay him for the previous meal.

You come and I go, this is the rhythm of normal love.

Jingyuan Hunan Cuisine Bistro, the restaurant was also ordered by Zhao Qingge. It is near her home and next to Yandu University. Li Peifeng took a taxi and got there in 20 minutes.

The restaurant has an antique decoration, and there are many diners. It is bustling and noisy. As soon as Li Peifeng entered the restaurant, the smell of spicy red oil hit his nose.

"You have a keen sense of smell, you have a keen sense of smell, how can you make money with it? I'll be a police dog someday...fuck!"

"Who are you?"

Li Peifeng was stimulated by the smell, and the skill [Sense of Smell] began to play its due role again, but it seemed to have no effect. His mind let himself go, but he still did not forget the purpose of coming. Facing the greeting The service said:

"Lan Ruoxuan, are they here?"

"Oh, please come this way."

Following the waiter's footsteps, Li Peifeng's mind began to have wild thoughts.

Will Lao Zhao wear black stockings?

Although Zhao Qingge didn't agree after he made the request on the phone, he still felt like he could wear it.

If it were worn, would it be black silk with a lining of suit pants, or a skirt with black silk lining? Or the latter looks better...

"At this."

The private room is semi-partitioned, with a wooden sliding door separating it from the hall. Zhao Qingge, a small private room for four people, sat close to the window.

Li Peifeng was slightly startled when he saw her.

wore!

The upper body is wearing a black and blue striped business shirt, the lower body is wearing a high-waisted black irregular skirt that covers the knees, the calves wrapped in black silk are slender and long, and the feet are a pair of pointed stilettos... I am suddenly very thirsty! !

"Let's serve." Zhao Qingge said to the waiter, who turned and left. Li Peifeng closed the door and sat next to her, continuing to admire it intently.

In the smell of the food, he smelled a restrained sandalwood scent, silky and soft, pure but not strong, just the right amount of elegance and aloofness.

Zhao Qingge's body fragrance contained complex emotions of nervousness and pride.

Are you very proud because you saw my straight eyes?

Li Peifeng looked more seriously. He would never allow himself to live up to his mentor's kindness.

"I ordered three dishes, braised pork, homemade tofu, and Xiangxi grandma's dish. If it's not enough, you can order more, but their dishes are very generous."

"Eat these first, and wait until the dishes are served."

Li Peifeng took the opportunity to sit next to Zhao Qingge and looked under the table...

"There was an academic meeting at Yanda during the day, and I was wearing this outfit."

Zhao Qingge seemed to be defending that he didn't put on black stockings on purpose, and his hands were unnaturally placed between his legs.

"oh."

Li Peifeng suppressed a smile and nodded, holding her hand with his left hand and holding her waist with his right hand: "This outfit is very beautiful, stylish but not tacky. The skirt is also very designed, and the dark striped shirt is stable. It dilutes the charm of black stockings, everything is just right!”

The meal was just right too!

Braised pork is bright red in color and overflowing with meat aroma. Each piece of meat is fatter by one point and thinner by one point. The taste is sweet and salty, salty and spicy, sweet but not greasy.

Xiangxi Grandma's cuisine has a vegetable aroma in the mouth, followed by a mixture of salty, sour, spicy, crispy and sweet flavors. The more you eat, the more you want to eat it.

Especially the last dish of homemade tofu, Li Peifeng likes it the most. The tofu is dark in color and feels tender to the touch and smooth to the taste.

It's a bit hot and spicy. Li Peifeng's hands were swollen when he touched it, and his lips turned red when he ate the tofu.

Still enjoy it!

But an hour later, all three dishes on the table were eaten. Li Peifeng still wanted to eat, and Lao Zhao was a little unhappy...

"Stop touching." Zhao Qingge's face was slightly red and his expression was helpless. He pulled the hem of his skirt down again, trying to block Li Peifeng's two hands that were causing trouble on his legs, and scolded: "I touch you again to pay!"

"No problem." Li Peifeng said with a smile, "Then I'll pay the bill and you can sit with me for a while."

"No need." Zhao Qingge realized that he had made a mistake and quickly changed his words: "Let me out."

"Are you going home after dinner?"

"..."

Zhao Qingge looked at him without answering. Li Peifeng saw this and suggested: "How about going for a walk in Haiding Park? It seems to be quite close to here."

Li Peifeng thought it was pretty good to hold hands and take a walk in the park with Lao Zhao, then sit on a bench at night, kiss and touch each other, and do something that young lovers do.

Zhao Qingge frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then said one word: "Cold."

Li Peifeng took a look at her clothes. There was a suit jacket on the chair, but the other party's lower body was in a skirt after all. This outfit would definitely be cold at night in this season, so he changed his words: "Go to my house for a walk, I I will take you around each room and introduce various furniture..."

Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!

Zhao Qingge gave him a cold glance and said, "Change."

"That leaves only one last option."

Li Peifeng let out a long breath: "Let me take you to catch dolls... Well, I have always wanted to play, but I have never played with others. Have you ever caught dolls?"

Zhao Qingge did not answer the question, but nodded: "Let's go shopping in the mall."

After deciding on their destination, the two paid and walked out of the hotel.

[Zhao Qingge treated guests to dinner and spent 232 yuan, leaving 43,528 yuan left before the lottery starts...]

"you drive."

"good."

So Li Peifeng transformed into a driver, started the vehicle, and merged onto the main road. He held the steering wheel with his left hand, spread out the five fingers of his right hand, placed it on the center control position, then tightened it and spread it out...

"What are you doing?" Zhao Qingge said calmly, "Drive well."

"Not holding hands? That's okay too."

Li Peifeng didn't care, stretched out his right hand, and directly touched Zhao Qingge's leg wrapped in black silk.

"..."

He didn't touch it and was blocked by Lao Zhao with his hand.

Zhao Qingge pursed his lips, clasped his fingers tightly, and shook Li Peifeng's hand further away from him, and said in a cold tone: "If you touch the socks again, they will be ruined."

Li Peifeng smiled and said, "I'll buy you a few more in a while."

"unnecessary!"

After Zhao Qingge firmly refused, he turned to look out the window, slightly pursed his lips, his beautiful eyes were full of smiles.

Is this the taste of happiness? !

Li Peifeng's nose twitched slightly and he turned to look at the co-pilot. Through the refraction of the glass, he could see the smile on Zhao Qingge's mouth that had not faded away. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Holding my hand makes you so happy?"

"...It has nothing to do with you."

"Then I'll take you home?"

Zhao Qingge's face was as dark as water, and Li Peifeng couldn't help laughing again. Taking advantage of the red light in front, he stepped on the brakes and kissed her.

Zhao Qingge tried to dodge slightly but failed, and just said: "Drive well and don't joke."

"OK."

There are too many shopping malls near Yanda. Li Peifeng chose Century Center Mall because he remembered that this mall was more entertaining and had a haunted house inside, which was played by real people.

If possible, Li Peifeng plans to take Lao Zhao to experience it, which will undoubtedly make him take off his mask and bring the two closer together again.

After a five- to six-minute drive, we arrived at our destination. After parking the car in the underground garage, Li Peifeng took Lao Zhao's hand and walked to the entrance elevator.

"Is there anything else you'd like to buy?"

"without."

"Then let's go directly to the fifth floor. The fifth floor is the place for entertainment."

"Well, put your mask on."

After chatting for a while, they passed the garage and entered the underground elevator entrance. But when the elevator door was about to close in the distance, the two of them speeded up their pace in unison.

"Ding~"

Fortunately, the people inside the elevator door seemed to hear hurried footsteps outside the door, and stretched out a leather shoe to block the middle of the elevator door. The two doors felt the obstruction and slowly opened again.

"Thank you."

Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge were able to enter the elevator.

There were only three people in the elevator, a standard family of three, a couple in their thirties and a little boy of five or six.

"Which floor is it?" the husband of a family of three asked kindly.

"Fifth floor, thank you."

Li Peifeng responded and accidentally glanced at Zhao Qingge and found that he was looking at each other with his wife in a family of three, as if they knew each other.

"You are..." The woman is about the same height as Zhao Qingge. Even though she is wearing a mask, her specific appearance cannot be seen. All she can see is that she has black shawl curly hair, a pair of half-frame myopia glasses, and big bright eyes under the lenses. Staring at Zhao Qingge closely, his tone was slightly surprised: "Qingge?"

Zhao Qingge quickly glanced at the hands held by himself and Li Peifeng. After a slight panic and embarrassment, he calmed down and said in a polite but strange tone: "Sorry, you may have mistaken the person."

The woman groaned, a little confused and embarrassed: "Really? I'm sorry, I think you look like an old classmate of mine when you wear a mask."

Zhao Qingge nodded and said nothing. Li Peifeng thought to himself, sister, you must have admitted it right. She is your classmate, but she is too embarrassed to see you at this moment!

Good guy, my palms are sweating from nervousness!

Li Peifeng held Zhao Qingge's hand and smiled secretly in his heart, but he was also a little confused. Since he was just a classmate, what was there to be afraid of after admitting it? It's not your parents, relatives, or classmates, I don't know about the other relationship between the two... Can you lose a piece of meat if you admit it?

"Would it be embarrassing for acquaintances to see me when you go shopping with me?"

Li Peifeng whispered something in Old Zhao's ear, Zhao Qingge was indifferent, but just took his hand and squeezed it hard!

The elevator went up all the way, passing the first floor and the second floor without stopping. Li Peifeng saw that the family of three went to the sixth floor.

Glancing at the woman who was talking to Old Zhao, the woman was also looking at them curiously. Zhao Qingge stared at the elevator door without squinting, as if he wanted to turn his eyes into lasers, melt a big hole in the elevator door, and then escape.

"It's so similar, it's so similar, how can there be two people who are so similar?"

Zhao Qingge was too nervous to go see his old classmate, but Li Peifeng could see clearly. The woman was muttering in a low voice, taking out her mobile phone and making a call!

"Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding~"

Just two seconds passed, and the mobile phone in Zhao Qingge's suit jacket rang. Since she never dared to look at the woman and didn't know that the other party was on the phone, she didn't know who was calling her, so she reached into her pocket as usual. take the phone...

"Ahem~"

Li Peifeng coughed dryly, but Lao Zhao didn't understand his reminder, he found the phone and took it out...

The woman's eyes gradually evolved from curiosity to suspicion, shock, bewilderment and other emotions!

Is this the puzzling smell? !

Li Peifeng breathed a sigh of relief, he was very knowledgeable.

"Su Yumei."

At this time, Zhao Qingge also saw the caller's information displayed on the screen, and mechanically turned his head to look at the woman in the elevator, or Su Yumei.

Su Yumei was also looking at her, Su Yumei's son was also looking at her with big black and white eyes, and Su Yumei's husband was also blinking at her.

"..."

The scene was very embarrassing!

At this moment, Li Peifeng didn't know what Lao Zhao was thinking. Anyway, the smell he smelled was very complicated...

"Perhaps this is the taste of social death?"

"Zhao Qingge, you deserve it!!"

Li Peifeng loves to hear about this and takes pleasure in others' misfortunes.

The time in the elevator seemed to be frozen for four or five seconds. At least for Zhao Qingge, it was frozen, or frozen by thousands of years of ice. But after four or five seconds, it seemed like she was back in spring. The snow melted and the ice disappeared, and she recovered. , suddenly came to life.

"Are you...Yumei?"

Zhao Qingge's tone was filled with confusion and joy, with a trace of falsehood. Well, his speaking voice has become normal. He didn't deliberately lower his voice just now.

Alas, you knew you had turned when the car hit the wall, you knew you bought the stock when it rose, you knew you repented when you made a mistake and were sentenced, you knew you dumped it when your nose ran into your mouth, and you thought it was yogurt! The elevator door is about to open, so show off your acting skills!

Li Peifeng was even embarrassed for her. Her mouth was cracked under the mask, and her toes were twitching in her sneakers.

Button it up, expose the soles of your shoes, and make a three-bedroom and one-living room. From now on, the imperial capital of Nuo Da will not be without a place to stay...

"You finally recognized me?"

Su Yumei took off her mask, revealing a delicate face with a melon-seed face, and an expression that said she couldn't laugh or cry: "We have been together day and night for four years as undergraduates...you can't even recognize me?"

Li Peifeng was in awe, oh, he is not only a classmate, but also a roommate, so there is really no need for you to pretend like this, Lao Zhao!

"sorry Sorry!"

Zhao Qingge also took off his mask, shook off Li Peifeng's hand, and came to the side of his old classmate, with guilty eyes and a smile on his face: "You were wearing a mask, I didn't recognize it for a moment...and you seem to have lost weight and become more beautiful. I really don’t dare to admit it!”

Su Yumei smiled and shook her head: "Nonsense, you are obviously getting more and more beautiful, but your eyes are getting harder and harder to use."

The joke was very strong. Zhao Qingge's expression froze, but his smile did not diminish: "Haha, I really didn't wear glasses when I went out today. Sorry, sorry, this is..."

After saying that, she looked at Su Yumei's husband.

The way to change the topic is very blunt, but it works!

Su Yumei smiled and said: "My husband, who else can I be? Didn't you go to my wedding day?"

"I went, but I had a meeting that day, so I just bowed and left... Hey, Yumei, is this your child? Is he so old?"

Zhao Qingge's enthusiasm almost made Li Peifeng forget about her pretending not to know him!

Well, I probably learned my thick skin from you!

Li Peifeng laughed secretly.

But Su Yumei patted her child and told her, "Niu Niu, call me aunt."

"Hello, Auntie." The little boy Niu Niu greeted obediently and bowed slightly in a well-educated manner.

"Ding~"

The elevator reached the fifth floor. Just as Zhao Qingge was about to speak, Su Yumei took her hand, and the family followed her and Li Peifeng out.

"Aren't you going to the sixth floor..."

“You can get there by taking the escalator.”

A group of people stood at the door of the elevator. Su Yumei pointed at Li Peifeng and said narrowly: "Won't you introduce this handsome guy?"

Sorry, please call me the most handsome guy!

Li Peifeng silently clicked on the [Image Spokesperson] halo, didn’t take off his mask, and just stood there quietly. He wanted to see how Lao Zhao would answer...

Zhao Qingge withdrew his gaze, glanced at Mr. Li, lowered his eyelids slightly, and said softly: "I...my boyfriend."
