My girlfriend is from the future!

On the day of He Tianran's birthday, Guo Huai planned that the three of them would have a side-fired meal together to celebrate his birthday.

"Dabianlu" is a Cantonese name, which actually means eating hot pot.

In the cold winter of Hong Kong City, this is indeed the first choice for friends to have dinner.

It may be that He Tianran and Wen Liang have been together for a long time in the past two years. He heard the word "eat hot pot" when he went out to meet friends. , but when it comes to the eating habits he developed since he was a child, He Tianran still prefers the Cantonese-style hot pot with a mouthful of soup.

Guo Huaiding's store is not easy to find. It's located on the side of a road on Xueyuan Branch Road. The name is "Xingyun Dabianlu". arrive.

Before He Tianran came here, he wanted to check the ratings on the gourmet app, but he didn't expect that there was no information about this restaurant.

Since the three of them had classes for a day, it was already evening when He Ranran arrived. Looking in from the plastic transparent curtains hanging at the door of the store, the store was already overcrowded, and the casserole pots on each table were gurgling. Gulu was steaming, and the sound of pushing and changing cups was endless, and some seats had already been placed on the sidewalk.

There seem to be very few student customers in this store, most of them are middle-aged people, and most of the words they speak are in Cantonese, which is normal. This kind of old restaurant with simple decoration has a poor environment. It is neither popular nor popular. There is no publicity, and those who know about this place are not old foodies, but locals nearby.

On a winter night, a small restaurant on the street, a table set up randomly on the curb, a charcoal stove and a casserole the size of half a washbasin, among the rising white smoke, besides the fragrance, it is more a kind of fragrance. Resistant to cold pyrotechnic breaths.

He Tianran quite liked this kind of strong market atmosphere. Seeing this scene, he was already articulate. Looking around, he finally found Guo Huai who had arrived earlier at a corner of the street.

He walked up and found that Guo Huai seemed to be talking to the waitress in the store at this moment.

"Auntie, there are really no private rooms here? What about the lobby? Is there any room in the lobby?"

Guo Huai looked anxious, as if he didn't expect the business here to be so good.

"No, I don't have private rooms here, do you want to eat, huh huh huh."

It is estimated that there are too many guests to come here, and the aunt is not very good-tempered. Guo Huai replied in Cantonese. Guo Huai looked at a loss. He could roughly understand the meaning of the first few words, but he obviously didn't hear the last few words. clear.

He Tianran stepped forward and said:

"Auntie Shi, let's just sit here, we shouldn't take the stage."

Guo Huai found out that today's birthday person had arrived, and was embarrassed by the current scene.

The waitress turned her head to look at him and asked:

"What pot bottom do you want?"

"Flower maw chicken."

The aunt quickly set up a table next to her, and moved a few plastic chairs. He Tianran said that they still have a friend, and they will order the side dishes later, and put the bottom of the pot first. The aunt nodded and left. go.

He Tianran looked at Guo Huai who was still in a daze, and said with a smile:

"Sit down, President, this is the place you were looking for, why are you so cautious?"

After all, he sat down first.

Guo Huai scratched his head, this was the first time he met after he kicked He Tianran in the restaurant last time, and it was his birthday again, originally he wanted to arrange it better this time, but he didn't expect that He Tianran would just sit like this now I ate hot pot on the side of the road, and it was still in this cold winter...

"Naturally...how about we change places, I don't know even the lobby is full at the moment."

Guo Huai suggested embarrassingly.

"What to change, I have ordered the bottom of the pot, where is the flower maw chicken, Dabu, if you sit in the hall, you may be too hot to eat, and you will be sweating, and it is just right here now, and others still use the charcoal stove , it won't be cold."

He Tianran doesn't mind this, why can't he eat the side stove, and the place is lively and lively, he really likes it.

Just looking at Guo Huai's expression, he guessed:

"You are afraid that Ai Qing will come later, a girl is not suitable for sitting on the street, right?"

Guo Huai nodded, paused for a while, then shook his head, wondering:

"I'm really worried when you say that...but...this is the place she recommended..."

"Ah... what am I talking about, no wonder, it's pretty good here, don't worry about it, Ai Qing can't go wrong with her recommendation."

It was only then that He Tianran realized that there was something wrong with him. This place was not a place Guo Huai could find. Even if he wanted to find what he liked, it couldn't be this kind of small street restaurant full of regional flavors. Only a local girl like Cao Aiqing would pay attention to this kind of place.

Guo Huai struggled a bit, finally sat down and wiped the greasy table with a napkin.

Speaking of it, Guo Huai is the one with the worst family environment among the three, but now he has become the most particular person.

He Tianran knew very well that this was definitely not Guo Huai's frugality and extravagance after he became the president of the student union, but that he wanted to arrange today's dinner too much, which made him a little nervous.

The waiter brought up a piece of beer, and then another piece of edamame and peanuts. The former was ordered by He Tianran just now, and the latter was a regular delivery from this store. The bottom of the pot still needs to be boiled for a while.

He Tianran casually opened two bottles of wine and asked:

"Why don't you see Ai Qing? I thought she would come with you because my class was late."

Guo Huai separated the plastic wine glasses that were set together, took the wine bottle, poured the wine and said:

"No, she seems to have bought you a cake."

"That's it... Come on, let's have a drink first."

He Tianran raised his wine glass, and the two drank it down in one gulp.

"Happy birthday, naturally, before I..."

As soon as Guo Huai said his congratulations, He Tianran waved his hand in time and said carelessly:

"Thank you, thank you, don't do it, I know what you're going to say, it's okay, Ai Qing hasn't come yet, it's just me talking about these weird things between the two men, just drink."

Guo Huai was always afraid that He Tianran would have a problem with misunderstanding him before. Seeing him joking and joking, he immediately relaxed a lot, so he said with a smile:
"I'm not saying you're natural, you're too careless as a rich second generation."

"How to say?"

He Tianran squeezed a few edamame and threw it into his mouth.

After eating the yellow soup, Guo Huai gradually let go:

"Other rich second generations have birthday parties, and those who are more extravagant fly to places like Sanya. I'm afraid it won't be lively, but you are better off, and you can get rid of it with a hot pot on the street."

"Hey, you're still talking about me. Isn't this for you, the student council president? I'll live as you arrange for my younger brother."

Guo Huai was caught in such a fight, and immediately said: "Okay, I will arrange the second match today, and I will definitely let you have a good time today."

After finishing speaking, this buddy was about to use his mobile phone to book a place, He Tianran quickly pressed his hand and said:
"It's very happy here, everyone said don't do it, Lao Guo, why do you get on top immediately? You didn't do this before. If you make an appointment for the second time, what do you ask Ai Qing to do? We finished eating, she is Can I come or not? I really don’t mind this, it’s good to have a birthday, have dinner with friends, and chat.”

"Then... go to sing later?"

"Let's talk about it, oops."

He Tianran brought another glass of wine, Guo Huai finished it, and then suppressed the desire to consume.

Lao Guo has already become the president of the student council anyway, and he still has some thimbles, and he still has the skills to observe words and emotions. In the conversation just now, He Tianran has mentioned Cao Aiqing several times. If Guo Huai notices again No, then he is the student council president for nothing, and he throws out a comment:
"Naturally, Ai Qing doesn't seem to be in school recently, do you know why?"

He Tianran shook his head: "I didn't notice, you know?"

"It seems that I heard that their teacher arranged a design job for her in private, and she has been busy with it recently."

He Tianran smiled: "Don't you know, you still ask me."

Guo Huai saw that the other party didn't take it seriously, so he simply said it directly: "But it was done with graduate students, that is, with that senior Shen. This is what a classmate from the School of Architecture in our student union told me."

"This shows that Ai Qing studied hard, was valued by the teacher, and is now doing the same subject as a graduate student. It's a good thing."

He Tianran replied tepidly, and the waiter brought the bottom of the boiled pot to the table.

In the smoky environment, Guo Huai looked around, but he didn't see the girl, so he dared to ask:
"Naturally, what's the situation between you and Ai Qing now? I know something from the internal situation of the student union. Sun Qianzhi and Ai Qing don't have any intersection at all. That time about your brother and you... I can probably understand, now you Help Ai Qing settle the matter, and the relationship between you two will not make any progress?"

He Tianran patiently scooped chicken soup into the bowl, and said in a calm manner:

"Didn't I make it clear to you last time that I won't chase her anymore. Now that my friend is in trouble, I can't even help a friend once? What's the matter? You helped Ai Qing before because you were friends, but because you wanted to chase someone else." , if others don’t love you, you won’t help?”

Guo Huai was made anxious by this sentence: "Help! It's not natural... You, are you really not in a hurry to see her getting closer and closer to Senior Shen?"

He Tianran raised his eyes and teased: "It seems that you are more anxious than me."

"I..." Guo Huai sighed, and said melancholy: "Oh, to tell you the truth, I confessed to Ai Qing last time at the restaurant where your brother invited me, and you should be able to imagine the result. The things that happened in the past two months made me gradually understand that the gap between me and Ai Qing cannot be filled by hard work..."

He Tianran listened quietly, blowing chicken soup in his mouth, and when the other party finished speaking, he put the chicken soup in front of Guo Huai, and comforted him:
"Old Guo, you can't say what the difference is. It's just that everyone's way of life is different. When it comes to finding a partner, it's better to match each other's frequencies. It's like Ai Qing is the art channel of Dusk, and You are the financial news at noon, the wind and the horse are irrelevant, and it seems nondescript when you put them together, but this does not mean that you are not good, you also have your own audience."

"So, last time you punched me soberly..."

He Tianran was very pleased that Guo Huai could understand this truth during college and avoid their respective future tragedies.

In this era where men and women can live a self-sufficient life by virtue of their abilities, it is already out of date to say that it is better to demolish a temple than destroy a marriage. When survival can be guaranteed, happiness should be the first priority .

"We must not touch one of these? Lao Guo, your kick is not light!"

He Tianran was joking, Guo Huai was taken aback, then looked at each other for a moment, both of them laughed and raised their glasses to each other.

"Why are you pulling and pulling on me? Naturally, I'll tell you, I don't regret confessing to Ai Qing, at least I said it, and the tone in my chest is smooth, you know?! You say you, we agreed at the beginning that chasing Ai Qing depends on one's ability, but I didn't expect you to give up halfway, just in this regard, I am better than you, you know!"

"What's the matter, you were rejected by Ai Qing, and you felt upset. Let this play with me to provoke me to confess, and when I am rejected, I will be with you, right? You confess, you are awesome, buddy, I am cowardly, just I won't be with you anymore, as long as I don't confess, then I won't be rejected, this is the truth, do you understand brother!"

It's really a turn of events. He Tianran really didn't expect that he would also be lectured by Guo Huai's aggressive general, but the contrast is quite interesting.

Unknowingly, after the wine drank, the emotions of the two also rose. Guo Huai complained:

"No, naturally, you said we have known Ai Qing since high school, at least six years, right! So how long has Senior Shen known her? Less than a year! Less than a year! You said that Ai Qing and I were not on the same frequency. You deserve it if you rejected it, but your frequency is right, you have to rush! Why did you shrink back halfway! I really think you two can do it, and you can’t take advantage of an outsider!"

He Tianran burst out laughing, panting for breath, and said:

"What is a cheap outsider, Lao Guo, you are wrong to say that. When love comes, it doesn't matter what comes first."

"But for love, it must be selfish!"

Guo Huai unconsciously threw out a wise saying, and he continued:
"No matter how you say it, you have to have a summary of the secret love in the past few years, otherwise it will be quite aggrieved. I originally planned to wait until next year, when I graduate, I will reveal my heart to Ai Qing, but these things have happened. I had a better opportunity, and I didn't waste time procrastinating. It also allowed me to see myself clearly in advance, without regrets.

Naturally, I don't have much communication with Senior Shen, so I dare not jump to conclusions about him, but naturally, we have come together with Ai Qing, so even if it is a confession, you have to queue up with the number, no matter what happens, you have to go first Bar?If you are with Ai Qing, as your friend, I feel more comfortable, but if it is her and Senior Shen, then I am really depressed..."

Guo Huai talked and drank a glass by himself. It seems that the rejection really made him grow a lot. Although these words are still a bit naive and even familiar to He Tianran, but maybe this kind of thinking, Is it more in line with the mentality that contemporary college students and young people should have?
Seeing that He Tianran remained silent, Guo Huai thought there was an opportunity to take advantage of it. Anyway, today is a good day, so he pursued the victory and added:

"Naturally, you know, Ai Qing isn't at school these days, I said a few days ago that I wanted to celebrate your birthday with you, so I came back here on purpose..."

While he was talking, he suddenly heard a familiar sweet voice——

"What are you two talking about? I seem to hear my name."

He Tianran and Guo Huai looked around, only to see a girl pass through the thick smoke on the side of the street and come into their sight.

Standing in the hustle and bustle, she is beautiful and gentle, like a female Bodhisattva who has entered the mortal world, tainted with a little smoke and fire.
