    Tang Wen quickly adjusted his expression, "Today, I also hope that Xiao Xing can make more friends. Although Mr. Chu said this with a strong purpose, it is still sincere, but making friends needs a process, so don't be in a hurry, are you right?"

    Tang Wen gritted his teeth when he said this, as if giving an order to evict a guest, Meng Xing secretly tore off Tang Wen's clothes.

    "Yes." Chu Youan nodded in agreement, glanced down, saw Meng Xing's small movements, and politely said goodbye to the two with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Then I will not bother you for now."

    Chu Youan looked at Meng Xing and met his gaze. Meng Xing's eyes were still calm, peaceful and elegant, just like him.

    For strangers, this kind of temperament has a sense of distance, but for Chu Youan, it is very attractive, and he always wants to do something to break the calm.

    After Chu Youan left this corner, Tang Wen grabbed Meng Xing's hand and walked towards the second floor, "I just asked the small restaurant on the second floor to make a meal, and it should be almost done by now."

    There was a bit of warm air in the room. Meng Xing took off his shirt and put it on his arms. Hearing Tang Wen's thoughtfulness, he laughed again, "I haven't left Chu Youan's contact information yet."

    Tang Wen turned his head to look at Meng Xing, with a look of scrutiny and a teasing smile in his eyes, "Interested in him?"

    "It's okay, it's just that I'm more familiar with the top ten. Besides, you also said that he is sincere. Anyway, he will be counted as the eleventh place and included in the inspection list." Meng Xing said.

    Tang Wen looked up slightly, thinking: "Chu Youan, the family background, character and ability are all qualified, but he is too old."

    "Pfft—thirty years old, why do you feel old?" This was the second time Meng Xing heard such a description, and he couldn't help asking curiously.

    "Think about it, when you first learned how to climb, he went to elementary school. You graduated from elementary school, and everyone went to college. This is the gap. The most important thing is that he has no love history in his thirties. I don't think he can take care of him well.you."

    "Speaking of the age difference, he just took out a Chinese knot. Maybe the age when he was in elementary school really coaxed me who just knew how to crawl." Meng Xing said while shaking his head.

    Tang Wen sized him up for a while, and guessed from Meng Xing's tone of voice that he really meant something to Chu Youan. Even if his heart was not moved, it would be better not to say bad things about Chu Youan, and it would be better to follow him: "If you put aside the point of falling in love, Chu Youan is considered young in the business world, so to praise him is that he is young and promising."

    "Let's not talk about that, I'll leave the investigator to you, and I'll wait for you to help me make a date plan." When we arrived at the small restaurant, and took a seat under the guidance of the waiter, Meng Xing wiped his fingers next to each other with a warm towel, "IHungry, ready to eat, you go down and continue to work."

    "Heartless brat." Tang Wen patted his head, then turned and went downstairs helplessly.

    The meals prepared by Tang Wen are all Meng Xing’s favorites. They are sour, bright in color, don’t need to peel the shells, don’t need to spit out the bones, fish bones, etc. There must be a dish to go with the meal, even if this is the most famous blue meat in the city.In Shan Manor, Meng Xing also only needs home-cooked dishes for a meal.

    The things he likes haven't changed much over the years. Tang Wen used to always say that Meng Xing was easy to support.

    Maybe.

    If this is how life is now.

    Meng Xing put aside these thoughts and worked hard.

    He was not in a hurry to go down after dinner, he sat in the restaurant trying to clean up, and it was almost eight o'clock, he had to grab tickets.

    Tang Wen likes motorcycle racing. He played for a while when he was a freshman, but his skills fell before he was able to compete on the field. So his family banned him from playing motorcycles, but he did not stop him from watching the competition.

    There will be a motorcycle race in the city next door at the beginning of next month, and tickets will be released at 8 o'clock tonight, so he has to grab two tickets to accompany Tang Wen to watch.

    Refreshing the page non-stop, Meng Xing poked violently on the screen the moment the tickets were released.

    "Got it!" Meng Xing exclaimed in surprise, and watched Meng Xing's thumbs up on the ticket lock interface and paid slowly.

    There are really few tickets for the VIP seats, it all depends on how many rich people can reserve for individual visitors.

    In fact, Tang Wen asked his assistant for instructions or he asked his father to get the ticket easily, but he never looked for anyone, he would go if he could grab it, and if he couldn't get it, he would think of another gift for Tang Wen.

    In Meng Xing's view, nothing is necessary. If it wasn't for big expenses like a house and a car, he would use his own pocket money instead of his family's.

    The screenshot of the ticket was sent to Tang Wen, and by the way, he asked if he was going home with his dad tonight.

    Tang Wen quickly replied:

    "Thank you my star!"

    "I have to go to the company tomorrow, and I have a job handover this week, so I'll be back at your place on Friday night"

    Meng Xing: "Okay, then I'll go first"

    Tang Wen: "Okay, go to the front desk to get something when you go out, I have someone prepare a gift for you"

    Meng Xing: "Thank you boss.jpg"

    Tang Wen is a caring person. In addition to a decorative oil painting given to him, there is also a bottle of red wine that looks very expensive, and a new gemstone necklace of a certain A brand.

    Tang Wen also attached a card: "Bring it to my uncle and aunt for me, and I will come to visit when I am free."

    "My gift is the most perfunctory." Meng Xing muttered.

    In fact, just like the ticket he prepared for Tang Wen, the value is not high, if it is expensive between them, the pressure will be great, so just do whatever you want.

    Meng Xing was upset that Tang Wen also prepared gifts for his parents.

    The Meng family was originally invited to tonight's banquet, but his father was on a business trip and his mother went to Europe to watch a show.

    The gap between Meng Xing and his parents is very deep. Even though he has grown up and figured out many things, he still cannot erase the scars from the past. He can only live his own life and maintain the superficial peace.

    Tang Wen always tried his best to help Meng Xing resolve the conflicts, just like now that he prepared a gift but did not say that he would deliver it to the door, but asked Meng Xing to bring it.

    Meng Xing obediently followed Tang Wen's wishes, and sent a message to his parents when he got in the car, asking when they would be free.

    His parents came back very quickly, and after telling them when they would come back, Meng Xing made an appointment with them for dinner on Thursday.

    On the morning of the second day of the banquet, Meng Xing went back to school, and there were several documents that needed to be signed by his tutor.His tutor didn't like him very much, because he was too mediocre, not only not outstanding, but also disturbing other students with a "useless" face.

    Meng Xing was ready to be slandered by the teacher, but he unexpectedly ran into Chu Youan in the tutor's office who he had only seen yesterday.

    Meng Xing was not interested in what Chu Youan was here for. Taking advantage of his mentor's good mood, Meng Xing hurriedly asked someone to sign it. After finishing the work, he wanted to slip away, but Chu Youan stopped him directly: "Xiao Xing, waitI will."

    Instructor: "Do you know each other?"

    Chu Youan: "Well, how is Xiao Xing at school?"

    Tutor: "Student Meng Xing is very diligent."

    Meng Xing twitched the corner of his mouth, hard work is really the most meaningless compliment.Meng Xing thought about what to call Chu Youan, and after a while he pulled out a word in his vague impression: "Brother Youan, I'll wait for you outside."

    Chu Youan was slightly startled, then nodded with a smile.

    Meng Xing went downstairs, and the cherry blossoms in front of the teaching building were in full bloom, and the petals brought down by the breeze spread all over the ground. He was fascinated by the scene.

    The phone in his hand suddenly vibrated, and he trembled slightly in shock, before he lowered his head and pressed the phone to check the news.

    The person who sent the message did not have a note, and his WeChat name was sun. He clicked into the chat box suspiciously, and the purpose of entering the message was his own photo - he was standing in front of the cherry tree, tilting his head slightly, and the sun was falling on him.

    The photo was taken from behind and his face could not be seen, but he knew he was smiling.

    Looking at the photo, he fanned his eyelashes lightly, and turned his head just in time to see Chu Youan waving at him.

    Meng Xing walked over quickly, with a little surprise in his eyes: "It turns out that we have always been friends."

    Chu Youan raised his hand and rubbed the top of his head, "Well, are you hungry?"

    Probably because the environment was too gentle, Meng Xing calmly accepted the action of being rubbed on the top of his head, "You have done me a favor today, I will treat you to lunch."

    Chu Youan: "Okay."

    Meng Xing took him to the commercial street of the University City, and picked a Chinese restaurant with a small family, and the two chatted after ordering the dishes.

    Chu Youan: "It's quite a coincidence. Our company and several major universities in this city have set up a talent direct project. Your mentor is the leader. Come here today to communicate the general direction and sign the project establishment document."

    Meng Xing: "This is very good. It is a good opportunity for college students and graduate students."

    Seeing his calm expression, Chu Youan changed the subject: "I heard from the professor that you are about to graduate, do you have any plans after graduation?"

    Meng Xing thought he was referring to work, and curled the corners of his mouth indiscriminately. Unexpectedly, he heard Chu Youan say in the next second: "For example, go to Europe to listen to a concert. In June, the Real Orchestra will be touring in Europe. You can followTheir route travels around Europe."

    Meng Xing met Chu Youan's eyes, and his eyes were talking again.

    Meng Xing thought.

    But this time he understood, Chu Youan was inviting him.

    He smiled and asked, "What other options are there?"

    "Another example is going to the southern hemisphere. Australia is closer, and Argentina is farther away. Although I don't know if you like it or not, going to Argentina to watch a football game is a necessary sense of ritual for boys."

    Meng Xing's eyes lit up: "Have you ever been to the ball?"

    Chu Youan shook his head, "Since I was sensible, I have never been free. In this position, I will never have the best choice. I can only keep working hard. Life in the past few years has been quite boring."

    Having said that, Chu Youan picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

    Meng Xing gave an "En" in disapproval, "I think it's cool, now you have the confidence to do anything."

    "Yes, last year's year-end financial report is considered an excellent answer sheet, and I have been recognized by the directors and shareholders." Chu Youan was full of pride, like a child who got full marks in the exam and was praised by an adult and then raised his little tail..

    Meng Xing couldn't help laughing, the difference of five years is not that big.

    "Then have you thought about how to reward yourself?" Meng Xing asked.

    Chu Youan: "Of course, such as going to Europe to listen to a concert, such as going to Argentina to watch a football game."

    The familiar words finally made Meng Xing laugh out loud.

    "What are you laughing at? Do you think I'm not innovative?" Chu Youan hummed unhappily, but was obviously not really angry.

    Meng Xing felt that he was really childish, so he filled Chu Youan's tea, "No."

    The dishes were served one after another, Meng Xing reminded Chu Youan to move his chopsticks, and then lowered his head to cook in peace.Meng Xing doesn't like to talk when eating, but he likes to listen, and he responds briefly from time to time. He is a good listener.

    Chu Youan picked interesting things to talk about, and one meal probably wiped out the boring first thirty years of his life, and most of the words were beautified.

    After Meng Xing had almost eaten, seeing that the topic was about to end, Chu Youan wiped her mouth gracefully with a napkin, and then said, "I've made up a lot, just enjoy listening to it."

    Meng Xing didn't reply right away, and stared at him for a while before answering, "It's just made up."

    With the dragging tone and the silly blank look on his face, he looked very innocent, but Chu Youan knew very well that this kid was just pretending to be stupid, so he almost said he disliked him.

    Chu Youan frowned and stared at him, Meng Xing immediately became happy, and there was no trace of the blankness in his eyes just now.

    Chu Youan shook his head helplessly, feeling that his heart was hanging on Meng Xing's emotions.

    For him, such a state is rare.

    Meng Xing put one arm on the table, and Quan Feng held his chin, "Why are you interested in me? I'm a boring person."

    Chu Youan picked up the cup to drink water, and with the cover of the water cup, he quickly thought about whether he should express his heart to the little guy or only express his interest, or in order not to scare the little guy, in the name of a blind date...…

    "Actually, the discussions that have appeared recently... um... that is, the words that I haven't had a relationship in my 30s were released by my grandfather. From my grandfather's point of view, the step of success in my career was almost completed last year, and this year it should be.Get married." Chu Youan said casually, "Grandpa's original saying is that life takes one step at a time, and one step will naturally lead to the next step, so I am facing a marriage urge right now."

    Seeing that the little guy showed no dissatisfaction, Chu Youan added, "I'm still in a hurry."

    Ever since Meng Xing asked that sentence, his mind was also running fast.

    At the beginning of the blind date, Tang Wen said something in a hurry. Although Tang Wen was sincerely doing his best, the operation at the dinner party was more for fun.

    And he himself didn't seem to take it too seriously, at least he didn't really feel relieved.

    After going back last night, those ten people have contacted him, but he habitually buried himself in his own business, even blowing on the balcony for an hour, didn't look at his phone much, and the reply to messages was slow, and he had a few appointmentsHe was also declined, and before going to bed, he could clearly feel that several of them had taken a step back.

    But when saw Chu Youan today, those thoughts resurfaced.

    When he was very young, he thought about getting the attention of his parents, but in those years at home his parents were busy arguing, outside his father was busy with work, and his mother was busy with entertainment. Gradually, he got used to packaging himself asA transparent person will not be invited by parents, nor will he be praised by his parents to show off.

    He always follows the rules and completes every step step by step.

    He and Chu Youan are the opposite. If he finally marries Chu Youan, Chu Youan will continue to take the next step in life, while he is rebellious.

    The word "rebellious" is really exciting.

    "I don't like to be lively, I don't like to run around, I will refuse all entertainment, life is not interesting, and most of the time I don't bother to move, do you accept me like this?" Meng Xing said seriously.

    Chu Youan smelled something from his words, and immediately said: "My work will take up most of my time, I don't have many hobbies, and I have a slight cleanliness. Do you accept me like this?"

    Meng Xing: "Okay."

    Chu Youan raised his brows with joy, and immediately suppressed it, keeping his superficial calm, and nodded, "Okay, then let's go to get the certificate now."

    Meng Xing: "?? Ah? You don't propose?"

    Meng Xing's words were purely out of his mouth, and when he saw Chu Youan earnestly took out the familiar Chinese knot and walked to the edge of the table, ready to kneel on one knee, his brain buzzed.

    Then this time, his body was faster than his mind, and he immediately bent over and jumped up to Chu Youan, and met him below the table, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, unable to tell if the blush on their faces was embarrassment or something elsewhat.

    Meng Xing turned his head away immediately, "Don't beg, I can't afford to lose this person."

    Chu Youan grabbed his wrist with his backhand, and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'll give it to you. Let's go out first."

    Meng Xing's brain was on fire, and he had no time to care about the wrist being pulled.

    And Chu Youan secretly evaluated in his heart: It's a good thing that you don't reject physical contact.

    In the end, Chu Youan settled the lunch bill. It was not until he left the commercial street that the touch on his wrist disappeared, and Meng Xing recovered from the atmosphere just now. Then he took the Chinese knot from Chu Youan's hand, pretending to be calm.Looking straight ahead, he said, "I agree."

    The corners of Chu Youan's mouth curled up, "Then when will you get the certificate?"

    Meng Xing cleared his throat, "It's better to hit the sun than choose the day."

    The author has something to say:

    You can't believe a man's words~~~~~

    Neither of them said a word.

    Meng Xing: "I'm an exciting person. As long as I don't drive, I can go anywhere. Don't call me for official entertainment. I am always on call for interest parties. I live a regular life. I am a little sun. Do you accept me like this?"

    Chu Youan: "As long as my wife doesn't get up earlier than me, she will never see me in the company, and my hobbies and hobbies are all surprises, and I will never care if my clothes and pants are on the floor when I get into a fight. Do you accept me like this?"

    Mother: smiling face
