Zhutian Film and Television: Happiness starts from childhood

Chapter 22 Liars
"You two came out to eat, did you tell your family?" Zhao Hao asked seriously.

"Okay, we are not stupid. We will tell our parents after we confirm the time with you." Qiao Yingzi said proudly, pouting her mouth.

After making sure that the two little girls had told their parents, Zhao Hao felt relieved and picked up the menu and started ordering.

The two of them dared to treat themselves to a meal at a Sichuan restaurant. They must be people who love spicy food and can eat spicy food. Zhao Hao had no worries when ordering the food.

After ordering three of his favorite dishes: boiled pork slices, mapo tofu, and stir-fried pork, Zhao Hao handed the menu back to Qiao Yingzi.

The two little girls put their heads together and discussed what dishes to order. The two of them chattering and discussing in a low voice was very cute.

After the dishes were ordered, Qiao Yingzi looked up at Zhao Hao and said tentatively: "Do you want to drink?"

"I will have dinner with you two girls today, so I won't drink." Zhao Hao said with a smile.

After getting his affirmative reply, Qiao Yingzi placed another order for a bottle of orange juice.

"Which one of you will pay the bill today?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile while holding his chin.

"I won't tell you." Qiao Yingzi pouted and said arrogantly.

After running in the morning these past few days, Qiao Yingzi knew that Zhao Hao had a good temper. In addition, the two were only a few years apart, so she didn't take it into consideration when speaking.

Tao Zi, who was relatively reserved, blushed slightly. This was the first time she took the initiative to invite a boy to dinner. Her small hands nervously grasped the corners of her clothes under the table, and her muscles were tense as if she was applying for a job.

Zhao Hao looked at the two girls sitting opposite him with a warm smile, and the two girls were also quietly sizing him up.

"Looking at you two in school uniforms, I can't help but think of how silly I was when I was in high school." Zhao Hao smiled and started talking.

"Were you stupid in high school? It doesn't look like it." Qiao Yingzi asked with a frown.

In her impression, Zhao Hao was a smart man with well-mannered manners, interesting conversation, and shining eyes. The word "silly" had nothing to do with him.

"It doesn't look like me either." Tao Zi raised his head and looked at him and said seriously.

"Growing up is realizing my past shortcomings. Maybe in a few years, I will lament that I am stupid at my current age." Zhao Hao said with a wry smile.

"So, I feel so stupid when I watch videos of my childhood." Qiao Yingzi said mischievously.

"I agree with what you said. When I went to your house before, I saw photos of you as a child. You were naive and cute." Zhao Hao said bluntly.

"puff"

Tao Zi covered her mouth and snickered when she heard this. She tried several times to save her best friend's face and hold back her laughter, but she always failed.

"You were only naive when you were a child." Qiao Yingzi pouted and said angrily.

Zhao Hao successfully raised the topic, and then spoke out to calm Qiao Yingzi's emotions. By the way, he and Tao Zitao almost agreed with each other, and successfully got closer to the two girls.

After his combination of punches, laughter and laughter began to appear in the box that was still somewhat deserted. Tao Zi also chatted and laughed with Zhao Hao under the guidance of Qiao Yingzi.

Spicy and fragrant delicacies were served one after another. Zhao Hao stood up, greeted the two girls to eat, and opened orange juice to pour juice for them.

"This dish is a bit spicy~" Qiao Yingzi tasted the boiled pork slices, but accidentally ate a piece of chili, and her fair face turned red instantly.

"Hiss~ so spicy~" Qiao Yingzi stuck out her tongue and put her little hand on her mouth to fan her tongue to cool down the stinging and hot tongue. I don't know if she did this for any purpose, but her playful and cute appearance attracted Zhao Hao, who was taking care of her next to her. Some were stunned.

The little girl looks so cute without having to disguise herself, which is really rare.Zhao Hao handed the juice to Qiao Yingzi's hand and said thoughtfully: "Drink some juice and squeeze it. It will not be so spicy when you hold it in your mouth."

"This is so spicy that it makes me cry. If you can't eat spicy food and you still bring me to a Sichuan restaurant, aren't you looking for trouble?" Zhao Hao took out a tissue and gently wiped away the tears from her eyes.

After taking two sips of juice, Qiao Yingzi finally recovered. She pouted her lips and defended herself:

"I just didn't see the red pepper under your slice of meat, so it got spicy."

Zhao Hao just smiled and said nothing. He unscrewed a bottle of mineral water very considerately and poured it into three bowls. He turned the table and distributed the bowls to Yingzi and Taozi.

"Some dishes are really too spicy. If you eat too much spicy food at night, your stomach will burn, and you will feel uncomfortable and unable to sleep when you go to bed. It's better if we rinse it with water."

His considerate behavior won silent approval from the two girls. Although Qiao Yingzi was trying to show off her words, she still obediently drank the water before eating.

After the meal, Zhao Hao's relationship with the two girls got better, and they even had some inadvertent physical contact.

"Zhao Hao, are you full?" Qiao Yingzi asked with a flushed face.

"Well, I'm full." Zhao Hao nodded and smiled.

"Then let's go. It's almost eight o'clock and we have to go home." Qiao Yingzi stood up and called the waiter to pay.

"Your table has been paid." The waiter said with a smile.

"Impossible~" Qiao Yingzi and the two smart little girls woke up immediately and turned their heads to look at Zhao Hao in unison.

"You just paid the bill when you excused yourself to the toilet, right?" Qiao Yingzi asked.

"Maybe some kind person paid the bill for us." Zhao Hao joked.

"fraud!"

Qiao Yingzi and Tao Zi looked at each other. They had clearly agreed to treat Zhao Hao to dinner, but in the end they asked the person being treated to settle the bill.

What's the matter!
Seeing that they were still struggling with this matter, Zhao Hao stepped forward and put his hands on their shoulders naturally, saying seriously:
"You two are still students, and I have already joined the workforce and can earn my own money. Of course, when the three of us eat, I have to pay the bill. What's more, I'm still a boy. Isn't it a natural thing to pay the bill?"

"But, we agreed to treat you to dinner today, how could we ask you to pay the bill in the end?" Tao Zi said a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, I appreciate your kindness. Friends don't need to be too clear-cut." After saying this, Zhao Hao took the two little girls and left the hotel.

"Let Tao Zi and I treat you to a meal this weekend, and you are not allowed to pay again, otherwise we will never pay attention to you again." Qiao Yingzi stood at the door of the restaurant, pouting her little mouth and making a request to Zhao Hao.

"Uh~ Is this necessary?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.

"Yes!" the two girls said in unison.

"Okay, since you two care so much, I will definitely not rush to pay the bill with you that weekend after you both set a time and place, okay?" Zhao Hao said with a hearty smile.

After receiving his promise, the two little girls nodded with satisfaction. The three of them smiled at each other and walked side by side to the roadside to hail a taxi.

"Send Tao Zi home first, and then we will go back to Shuxiang Yayuan." Zhao Hao said while sitting in the passenger seat of the taxi.

"Yeah, okay." The two girls sitting in the back row had no objection.
