Chapter 207 Let's go together!
If you could only read one urban novel in your life, it would probably be "Middle-aged Tycoon: Twins Come Knocking When I Go Home for the New Year".
Li Menghan was stunned when he saw Fan Xi suddenly appear in front of him.
His mind went blank.
It was as if someone had suddenly pressed the pause button, stopping all his thoughts.
He waited at the school gate for two whole hours when he arrived at school in the morning, just to run into Fan Xi.
But after waiting for so long, it still didn't arrive.
He had completely given up and felt that he would not see her today.
Just as he was about to leave, she suddenly appeared in front of him.
He didn't even know what to say to her.
He stood there, his mouth open, but he didn't say a word.
Fan Xi saw Li Menghan standing there motionless, not saying a word.
She tilted her head, a curious expression on her face.
Then, she took a few steps forward on her own initiative.
She walked to a distance of about one body length from Li Menghan.
She looked up, met Li Menghan's eyes, and asked:
"Handsome? Why are you ignoring me? Don't you want to see me?"
When she said that, her voice sounded a little aggrieved.
Upon hearing these words, Li Menghan immediately snapped out of his daze.
He quickly shook his head and replied rapidly:
"No, no! It's not that I didn't want to see you! I just suddenly froze."
When Fan Xi heard him say that, her smile returned.
She looked at Li Menghan and deliberately made a very strange expression.
She pouted slightly and blinked.
She asked:
"Stunned? Why are you stunned?"
When Li Menghan saw her pouting, he felt his heart start racing.
He quickly looked away, not daring to stare at her for a moment.
He maintained a very calm expression while making up a random excuse:
"Um... I was thinking about something on the way here, and I was still thinking about it when I got here, so I didn't react immediately."
Upon hearing his reply, Fan Xi immediately responded.
She looked at Li Menghan with great interest and asked:
"Really? Something that can keep you in a daze for so long must be quite interesting, right? Would you like to tell me about it?"
She paused for a moment, then a very mischievous smile suddenly appeared on her face.
She lowered her voice, leaned a little closer, and continued to ask:
"Is it because you've got your eye on one of the girls at our school?"
Upon hearing this, Li Menghan's face immediately turned red.
He was thinking to himself that he was indeed thinking about a girl.
But that girl is none other than you, standing right in front of me.
Of course, he could never say such a thing.
He quickly denied it:
"Um...no, it's something else."
Seeing Li Menghan blush and deny it, Fan Xi thought to himself that this boy was really interesting.
However, she did not pursue the matter further.
She dropped her playful expression, and her tone became calmer.
She said:
"Oh, alright. Since you're not willing to tell me, then I won't ask."
As she said this, a look of disappointment appeared on her face.
She lowered her head, looking at the small pink camera in her hand, and gently turned the lens cap with her fingers.
When Li Menghan saw Fan Xi's expression, he immediately felt very uncomfortable.
He felt he shouldn't make her unhappy.
A very strong feeling of wanting to protect her and make her smile again suddenly welled up in his heart.
He quickly began to explain:
"It's not that I don't want to tell you. I was just thinking about something very ordinary."
After thinking for a moment, he simply told him the truth:
"Actually, it's like this. I just made plans with my two roommates to have lunch at the restaurant where my mom works. But I've never eaten at that restaurant before, so I was just thinking about what to order when we get there."
Upon hearing this reason, Fan Xi looked up at Li Menghan.
The look of disappointment on her face vanished instantly.
Instead, she had a very beautiful smile.
She asked with a smile:
"Oh, I see. Where is your mother's shop? Have I heard of it?"
Li Menghan replied:
"It's the Prince's Pavilion over at Han City Tiandi."
Fan Xi's eyes lit up immediately when she heard the words "Prince Xuan".
She said very happily:
"Prince Xuan! I know that place! I've been there before!"
"However, I went to a different Prince Xuan restaurant, not the one in Han City Tiandi."
"Speaking of which, the time I went there was when I had just been admitted to university. My whole family booked a table at Tai Zi Xuan to celebrate my admission to university."
It's clear that the graduation banquet was a very cherished memory for her.
Li Menghan asked curiously:
"Really? What did you think of the food there?"
Fan Xi thought for a moment, then replied:
"Well, how should I put it? Anyway, I really enjoyed the meal that time!"
She smiled again as she said that.
Looking at her smiling face, Li Menghan felt his heart melt.
Her smile is so beautiful.
Those two eyes were curved, and the corners of their mouths turned up.
She looks exceptionally beautiful.
Standing there, a very bold idea suddenly popped into Li Menghan's mind.
He hesitated for about two seconds.
Then, he mustered his courage and spoke:
"Um... it's almost noon now. Why don't you come eat with me?"
After he said those words, his heart started beating even faster.
He watched Fan Xi's expression with great tension, waiting for her answer.
When Fan Xi heard Li Menghan invite her to dinner, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Then she looked at Li Menghan and said with a hint of hesitation:
"Is this okay? We just happened to run into each other. And we've only known each other for a short time. Plus, you went out to eat with your roommates."
She paused for a moment, then continued:
"When they see me suddenly going with you, won't they think...?"
When Li Menghan heard that Fan Xi's words implied a refusal, he immediately became anxious.
He quickly interrupted Fan Xi before she could finish speaking, and said loudly:
"It's okay! We're all brothers! They won't mind!"
After Li Menghan blurted out those words, he suddenly realized that his reaction might have been a bit too fast.
Too hasty.
And the sound was too loud.
It made it seem like I really, really wanted her to agree.
That is indeed the case.
But wouldn't showing it so obviously make Fan Xi think he's too impatient?
What if she feels uncomfortable because of this and rejects him instead?
Li Menghan waited anxiously for Fan Xi's reaction.
He looked into Fan Xi's eyes, his palms sweating.
Fan Xi looked at Li Menghan's expression, which was both nervous and expectant.
She lowered her head and smiled.
Then she raised her head again and looked at Li Menghan.
She smiled very generously and said:
"Since you've put it that way, thank you! Let's go together!"
