Waiting for the eternity of the moment

Chapter 3 I met you by accident (3)
The two walked to the opposite side of the road in silence. It was not until they got into the car that Han Haoxuan broke the silence and reminded Ruo Lin to put on her seat belt.

"What do you like to eat? Where do you want to go?" Han Haoxuan asked.

"Can you go to a restaurant that is quieter and less crowded?" While tormenting others, she is actually tormenting herself, and Ruolin is also a little tired of "destroying".It's better to fill your stomach first, and then continue to "destroy".

"Ok."

The car started, and the wind brushed Ruolin's hair.

She was a little confused, and she didn't have any confidence in whether she could continue acting in the future.

In fact, she really wanted to know, since Han Haoxuan already knew that she was not Xin Yu himself, why did he say such things to her?

"Do you hate me?" Han Haoxuan asked suddenly.

"Uh...it's not really annoying, it's just..." Ruo Lin stammered, not knowing what to say.

"Then why don't you want to see me, and lied that you're going to sketch outdoors today?"

"Is that what you mean when you say I'm lying?" Ruo Lin was a little puzzled. Didn't he know that she was pretending?
"Yes! Do you have other things to hide from me?"

"No, no..." Ruo Lin quickly shook her head.

"..." Han Haoxuan turned his head to look at Ruo Lin, but didn't notice her slightly flustered eyes, sneered, and asked seriously, "Is lying your strong point?"

Ruolin glanced at Han Haoxuan, and said angrily, "Is it instinct?"

"Your school actually makes you a teacher who regards lying as an instinct. Aren't you afraid of misleading your children?"

"You don't have to worry about that."

"Yes! What I'm most worried about now is that I won't be able to meet the restaurant you like today. In that case, I will be the unlucky one. I always think that I am picky enough, but I didn't expect you to be more difficult to serve than me!"

"You just know! It's because I'm hard to take care of, so I can't get married until today!" Ruo Lin took the opportunity to splash dirty water on herself.Hmph, I'm that hard-to-serve master, let's see if you're still interested?
"That's just right, I'm also more difficult to serve, we just happen to be a natural match. Do you want to consider marrying me?" Han Haoxuan said in a seemingly casual tone.

"If you really get married, it's probably too late for you to regret it." Ruo Lin only thought that Han Haoxuan was joking.

"No! As long as you dare to marry me, I won't regret it." Han Haoxuan seemed to be very serious this time, "To be honest, Xin Yu, you might as well think about getting married."

He called her Xinyu!Ruolin suddenly felt uncomfortable.Maybe what he likes is just Xinyu's background.Xinyu is a native, with a good family background and a good job.And once he knew that she was not Xin Yu, but just a poor employee wandering in a foreign land with nothing, would everything change?

"I'm actually..." Ruo Lin wanted to tell him the truth, but she still hesitated to speak.Firstly, he was afraid of causing trouble to Xin Yu, and secondly, he thought that since he and Han Haoxuan were strangers from now on, he would simply hide it to the end.

"It's okay, my heart can stand the test. If you have anything to say, just say it." Han Haoxuan glanced at her.

"You're not my type. I've said it long ago. So, please don't waste your time on me." Ruolin said pretending to be heartless.

"I want to know the real reason." Han Haoxuan is not a fool, he always thinks she is weird, he can sense her affection for him, but she always denies it, and today she is suspected of deliberately testing his patience.

"What I like is the kind of man who achieves success step by step by his own efforts, not the kind of man who lives carefree because of his good family background." Ruolin said seriously.

Maybe this is one of the reasons why she likes Mu Jingyan?His family background is also average, but he works very hard, and now he has become the chief financial officer of a certain company.He is her crush and an example for her to learn from.

Although Han Haoxuan is excellent in all aspects and is almost impeccable, Ruolin still feels that she and him are from two worlds.If they were together, wouldn't she be a modern day Cinderella?She never thought Cinderella was happy.The ending in fairy tales is often the end of happiness, not the beginning.Cinderella is not necessarily happy when she marries into the castle.A prince and princess are made for each other.

"Yes, sometimes, with a good family background, you can get what you want with a little less effort than others, but can you live a carefree life with a good family background? Only through my own efforts can I do the business I like. Before, my father always hoped that I could take over his business, but I am not interested in doing media. I am interested in e-commerce, so I went against my parents’ wishes. I secretly changed my major, and my relationship with my father was very tense. Now that my career has started, the relationship between me and my father has gradually eased. I can’t say that my career is very successful now, but at least I don’t rely on my family. Instead, I got to where I am today step by step.”

After hearing Han Haoxuan's words, Ruo Lin felt that she knew too little about him.Maybe he is not the playboy she imagined.Ruolin suddenly didn't want to use any of the harmful moves that Xinyu helped Ruolin think of.Because she felt that if those tricks were really used, she would appear extremely childish in front of the personable, gentle and considerate Han Haoxuan.Although she didn't want to associate with him, she didn't want to leave a bad impression on him either.

"You are so different from the blind dates I've met before." Seeing that Ruolin was silent, Han Haoxuan continued.

"What's different? Don't they all have two eyes, one nose, and one mouth?"

Han Haoxuan smiled and said: "The only purpose of other people's blind dates is to get married. And I'm not boasting. With my condition, other girls are trying to marry me. But you say I'm not what you like type. I want to ask you a question, is your blind date really for the purpose of getting married?"

"I don't want to get married so early. I was forced to go on a blind date." Of course, Ruolin would not say the specific reason for the blind date. She would not betray her good friend Xin Yu.

"Oh? Forced to go on a blind date? Me too. I usually dismiss blind dates, but this time I met you by accident. Seriously, what type of man do you like? Apart from relying on your own efforts Are there any other necessary elements to achieve a career? I want to get closer to the kind of man you like." Han Haoxuan said seriously.

Ruolin racked her brains to find Han Haoxuan's flaws, but couldn't. Is he really that perfect?
In desperation, Ruolin could only talk nonsense: "Uh... the man I like should have Fei Yuqing's voice, Tony Leung's eyes, Andy Lau's nose, and Wu Zun's lips."

"Hehe, if these four elements are combined in one person, wouldn't that person become 'four unlikenesses'?"

Ruolin smiled embarrassedly.

The car stopped in front of an Italian restaurant.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is very good, there are fewer customers and it is very quiet.

When she saw the menu, Ruolin was dumbfounded, it's so expensive!She couldn't afford it at all.

"Just order whatever you want, don't worry about the price. I'll treat you today." Han Haoxuan seemed to see what she was thinking.

"No, it's agreed that I'll treat you. Let's go to another house." After speaking, Ruolin picked up her bag and stood up.

Ruolin quickly walked outside.

Han Haoxuan chased him out while saying "I'm sorry" to the waiter.

"What do you want to eat?" Han Haoxuan really didn't know what to do with Ruolin.Is she really the kind of difficult person to serve as she said?

"I'm sorry." Ruolin whispered.

"Do you like me and test my patience on purpose?" Han Haoxuan laughed.

"Of course not, don't be too sentimental." Ruo Lin hastily denied, but her face turned red.

"If not, why are you blushing?" Han Haoxuan looked at Ruolin's cheek, and smiled even more proudly.

"..." Ruo Lin was speechless.

"Next you have to listen to my arrangement, otherwise we won't be able to eat for a day." Han Haoxuan involuntarily took Ruolin's hand and led her to an alley next to the Italian restaurant.

Turning left and right, Ruo Lin was almost dizzy from being abducted, and finally at the end of the alley, she saw a house with a signboard saying "Sister Li's Private Kitchen".

"Is there anyone else who runs a restaurant in such a secluded place?" Ruo Lin felt a little puzzled.

"Although the place is secluded, the dishes are unique and private dishes, which can only be tasted here." Fearing that Ruolin would have concerns about the price, Han Haoxuan added: "The most important point is that the dishes here are delicious and cheap."

The environment of this restaurant is more classical and elegant, the windows are all wooden, and there are green bamboos planted outside.

Perhaps because of the tossing and tossing for a long time, both Han Haoxuan and Ruo Lin were hungry.

When the food was served, neither of them spoke to each other, and they ate voraciously.

After dinner, Han Haoxuan ordered a pot of Pu'er tea.

The two chatted face to face.

Han Haoxuan tells Ruolin about his previous blind date history.

He spoke very vividly, and she was a qualified listener, and she laughed knowingly from time to time.

Finally talking about Han Haoxuan meeting Ruolin for the first time, Han Haoxuan asked Ruolin: "Why did you treat me with such a disdainful attitude when you saw me?"

"I didn't disdain you, but I never took blind dates seriously. In my opinion, isn't blind date just a lie?" Ruo Lin said eloquently.

Han Haoxuan was stunned when he heard such a statement for the first time.Aren't blind dates generally considered the quickest and most effective route to marriage?When did a blind date become the equivalent of cheating?
"Want to know my first impression of you?" Han Haoxuan asked.

"Tell me or not, it's your freedom, I don't care." Although Ruolin said so, she still wanted to know the answer in her heart.

"Does it really matter?"

"Yeah." Ruo Lin knew what it means to "suffer to save face" this time.

"Since you think it doesn't matter, then it doesn't make sense for me to say it. Let's go." After speaking, Han Haoxuan called the waiter to check out.

In front of her, Han Haoxuan once again tasted the taste of defeat.It's like beating on a ball of cotton, with nowhere to use it.

"It's agreed that I'll pay the bill." Ruo Lin quickly took out her wallet.

Han Haoxuan didn't argue with her either.

As he watched her take out those odd bills from her wallet, he suddenly felt that it was a sin to ask her to treat her to dinner.The current university teachers are not so poor, are they?
"Your consumption is a total of 180 yuan." When the waiter's clear and loud voice sounded, the smile on Ruolin's face instantly subsided. She didn't bring so much today.what to do?It is agreed that she will pay the bill and she cannot go back on her word.

Just when Ruolin was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, a hand stretched out from under the table, holding two hundred-yuan bills.

Ruo Lin took the money and settled the bill quickly.

After going out, Ruolin was grateful for Han Haoxuan's rescue just now, and said to him, "Thank you."

"Don't be so polite to me."

"I will pay you back when we meet next time." Ruo Lin hurriedly said, afraid that Han Haoxuan would misunderstand her sincerity in the treat.

"Okay, I look forward to our next meeting." Han Haoxuan smiled.

No matter what Ruo Lin heard, she felt that Han Haoxuan was smiling maliciously.Don't blame her for being stupid and accidentally said "see you next time", but blame the enemy for being too cunning and falling into his trap if he didn't pay attention.

The two walked aimlessly on the road.

"It's still early, how about we go to a movie?" Han Haoxuan glanced at his watch and said.

"I've watched a lot of movies on the computer." Ruo Lin lied, but she didn't have time to watch movies recently.

"Watching a movie in a movie theater has that kind of atmosphere and feeling." Han Haoxuan insisted, "I just have two movie tickets here, and it will be released later. If you don't watch it, it will be a waste." Han Haoxuan showed the two movie tickets .

After all, Ruolin still went to the cinema with Han Haoxuan, she really couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse him, any more lying was just to make things difficult for herself.

Before it was time for the movie to start, the two of them were strolling outside the movie theater.

There are some small stalls scattered outside the cinema, and couples are constantly passing by, and they are probably regarded as a sweet couple in the eyes of others.

Ruolin's eyes suddenly stopped in one place, a blurred light flashed in her eyes, and she stood there for a long time.

"Here you are." A voice interrupted Ruolin's erratic thoughts, and she came back to her senses, looking at the cotton candy that Han Haoxuan conjured up out of nowhere, excited.

This was her favorite marshmallow when she was a child. It was oozing with so much sweetness, and the aftertaste left on it became the most beautiful memory she would think about in the future.

But the most beautiful memory has the most bitter taste.

When she was a child, whenever she saw a stall selling cotton candy, she would pester her father to buy it for her. At that time, her family was not rich, but her father cared about her daughter. Other parents would buy it for their children. If she didn’t buy it herself I feel sorry for the child.

It was such a father who loved his daughter and said to her one day when she was ten years old: "My child, you have to listen to your mother and take good care of your sister. Dad will come back soon after going out for a while." Looking at Dad with his eyes, he nodded obediently.She didn't know that she would never see her father again after that parting.

At that time, her daily compulsory course was: turning over a page of the calendar before going to bed, looking at the photos taken by the family together, and looking at her father carefully.

She often whispers to the photos: "Dad, when will you come back? Mom said, as long as I turn over one page of the calendar every day, you will come back when I turn to the last page, but I really want to It takes a day to flip through the entire calendar."

Little Ruolin hugged the photo and unconsciously fell into a deep sleep, with cold tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes.When my mother came to help her tuck the quilt late at night, she couldn't help frowning and sighing when she saw her hugging the photo.Mom wanted to take the photo away from her arms, but unexpectedly, she grabbed it so tightly and muttered to herself, "Dad, come back soon..."

Thinking of the past, Ruolin's eyes became sour.

Looking at the pure white cotton candy in front of her, all kinds of emotions surged in Ruolin's heart.

"Thank you!" Ruo Lin took the marshmallow in Han Haoxuan's hand, and smiled at him to hide the sadness of recalling the past just now.

"You're welcome." Han Haoxuan replied politely.Just now when he saw Ruo Lin was dazed, he turned around and went to another stall to buy cotton candy.But Ruolin didn't notice him leaving at all, and he was surprised by her focused eyes.He thought, maybe only when he meets something he likes will he have that look in his eyes.

The fluffy white silk is intertwined with each other, with a round shape, it is gently held in the hand, but Ruolin feels a little heavy when holding it.When the sweetness passed between her teeth, her lips curled up slightly, and the sourness in her eyes quietly faded away.

Han Haoxuan looked at Ruo Lin quietly, her expression was as pure as a child's, under the soft light, her eyes became more and more clean and bright, free from dust.

Her expression of chewing slowly, her satisfied expression, and her immersed face all made his heart move.

This youthful innocence seems to be vividly interpreted by her.

Ruolin sat alone in the movie theater, the movie hadn't started yet, and the lights above her head were still bright.

After a while, Han Haoxuan came back with a shopping bag, sat beside Ruo Lin, then took out a bag of popcorn from the shopping bag and handed it to her.

Just when Ruolin accepted it politely, her hand accidentally touched Han Haoxuan's. The moment she touched it, she was shocked, and suddenly withdrew it, with an embarrassing smile on her face.

At this time, the movie started to be played, all the lights were turned off, and the movie theater was completely dark, only the light on the big screen could be seen.

"If you feel dry after eating, there is water here." Han Haoxuan raised the drink in his hand, and then put it by his side.

"En." Ruolin nodded, a little bit of shyness was hidden in the darkness.

A wonderful American blockbuster was shown on the screen. When the screen switched to the hero and heroine kissing affectionately, there was an ambiguous factor floating in the air.

The dreamlike and wonderful shots slowly created a throbbing in the hearts of the audience, making people want to move.

There were bold couples kissing in the dark, but there was a couple in the front row of Ruolin. Watching the movie made her a little shy, but the reality version made her even more shy.I obviously didn't do anything, but my face was a little hot, and I felt extremely dry even chewing popcorn in my mouth.While her mouth was dry, she turned her head to look at Han Haoxuan beside her, but she didn't want to meet his gaze, and she was even more flustered in her heart, as if she had done something wrong, she hurriedly withdrew her gaze.

Her panic was also due to the moment when their eyes collided, the picture of them holding hands and the moment when their fingers touched just now flashed in her mind.Is it because the real version is too ambiguous, so she thought of those things?She didn't know if it was like this, but at that time, the feeling of existence was very clear. His broad palm and his slender fingers meandered a gentle curve in her palm, entwining her heart.

This is neither her hallucination nor an illusion, it seems to be the warmth that is close at hand, within reach.

Seeing Ruo Lin's appearance, Han Haoxuan couldn't help raising the corners of his lips. After a while, he took the drink beside him, unscrewed the bottle cap familiarly, handed it to Ruo Lin, and said with a smile, "Are you thirsty? Have some drinks."

"Thank you." Ruolin said politely.This time she became extra careful and took the drink in the space beyond the slender fingers.

Ruolin couldn't help sighing at Han Haoxuan's extraordinary observation, as if he knew what she was thinking, and...he was so considerate.

"Considerative", how can you think of this word?Ruolin quickly drank the drink, the coolness immediately permeated every cell of her body, and the hotness on her face gradually faded away.

Maybe it was because she was too absorbed in watching the film. When the horror scene suddenly appeared in the film, and in order to exaggerate the horror atmosphere, she intentionally uttered a thrilling and terrifying voice. Unaware of the bag of popcorn that was tilting down in his hand.

It was obviously a romance movie, but a sudden and terrifying scene made her startled, all the popcorn in the bag splashed out, impartially, all splashed on Han Haoxuan, rolling off him one after another fell to the ground.

Ruolin was shocked immediately, the popcorn bag in her hand was empty and weightless, through the light cast from the screen, the white popcorn stuck to Han Haoxuan's body, he was wearing black casual trousers, and he looked more and more distinct in black and white .

"I'm sorry!" Ruo Lin whispered.
