Chapter 118 Dinner together
Qin Qing asked her if the audition was over, asked her where she was, and said he would come to find her.
Xia Qingqian raised her head and walked to the side of the cab. "Sister Manny, I have something else to do. I won't go back yet. You go first. I'll take a taxi back later."
Yang Manni didn't say much, just reminded, "Okay, don't go back too late, be careful."
"I understand, Sister Manny." Xia Qingqian smiled sweetly.
After Yang Manni drove away, Xia Qingqian called Qin Qing on WeChat, "Qingqing~"
"Qianqian, are you leaving?" Qin Qing asked hurriedly.
"I'm in the parking lot and haven't left yet. What's wrong? Do you have something to talk to me about?" Xia Qingqian asked.
"Didn't we just agree to have dinner together some other day? There's no need to wait until some other day. Do you have anything to do later? I'm almost done with my work here. Let's go to A University to find Wan'er. We'll go eat crayfish together in the evening, and have some beer. I'm drooling just thinking about it." Qin Qing said excitedly on the phone.
"Okay, I'll be free later." Xia Qingqian responded with a smile. Qin Qing was very lively and cheerful, and there was never any need to worry about awkward silence when being with her. They had only met twice, but once they started chatting, it was as if they were good friends who had known each other for a long time.
"Let me tell you, the crayfish there is super delicious. I guarantee that you will want to eat it a second time after trying it once." Qin Qing strongly recommended it.
"Really? You're making me drool." Xia Qingqian smiled and walked towards the elevator while talking on the phone, ready to go upstairs to find Qin Qing. "Where are you? I'll go upstairs to find you."
"I'm still waiting here for the audition, but someone has come to replace me, so I can leave right away. If you don't wait for me in the hotel lobby, I'll be down right away." Qin Qing said into the phone while handing the notebook and work badge to someone else.
"Okay, see you in the lobby later." Xia Qingqian hung up the phone and the elevator just came down. She took the elevator from the underground first floor to the first floor, walked to the hotel lobby, and then found a sofa in the lobby to sit and wait for Qin Qing.
After Qin Qing hung up the phone, she hurried to the lounge to pack her things and get her bag. Xiao Junhan saw her leaving in a hurry and followed her. When he reached the door of the lounge, he ran into Qin Qing coming out with her bag.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?" Xiao Junhan asked, blocking the road.
"What's it to you?" Qin Qing glared at him and reached out to push him, but failed. He frowned and said, "Get out of the way quickly. Qianqian is waiting for me downstairs."
"Where are you going?" Xiao Junhan still blocked the door.
"Let's go find Wan'er and eat crayfish tonight." Qin Qing, carrying her backpack, raised her head to look at Xiao Junhan, just in time to see his angular jawline. She thought silently in her heart, when did this boy grow so tall? The canvas shoes she wore today could only reach his chest.
"I'll go with you." Xiao Junhan said shamelessly.
"Are you really going?" Qin Qing asked, "We still have to go to A University to pick up Wan'er and go shopping. Are you sure you want to come with us?"
"I have nothing to do in the afternoon anyway. Didn't I say I would pay? Or maybe you are still short of a driver. Haven't you picked up the car yet?" Xiao Junhan said as he dragged Qin Qing towards the elevator.
Before Qin Qing could react, he was dragged downstairs.
Come on, free driver, free labor, free meal, just let him follow.
As soon as the two of them got out of the elevator, they saw Xia Qingqian sitting on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. Qin Qing trotted over and said, "Let's go, Qianqian, let's go to A University to find Wan'er first. We'll have a quick bite at the gate of A University at noon, then go shopping together, and eat crayfish in the evening."
The itinerary was packed.
Xia Qingqian stood up and smiled at Xiao Junhan who was standing behind Qin Qing and greeted him.
"Okay." She had nothing to do anyway and she hadn't gone shopping for a long time.
Xiao Junhan drove the two of them to A University and parked the car at the school gate. Qin Qing found a local restaurant that was familiar to him, led the two of them in, found a seat, and then called Tang Wan'er to ask her to come out for dinner.
She called the proprietress over and listed a list of dishes. "Okay, that's all."
Xiao Junhan poured tea for the two ladies in a gentlemanly manner, then teased Qin Qing, "Is this what you mean by just eating casually?" There were only four of them, including the three of them and Wan'er, and this girl only ordered more than ten dishes, which was really quite casual.
Qin Qing pretended to be angry and waited for Xiao Junhan, "It's rare for me to come back to eat, I have to eat everything I want." She was very busy after the internship, and she had less time to go back to school. She kept thinking about the food at the school gate. She turned to Xia Qingqian and said, "Qianqian, eat more later, their pickled fish is super delicious."
Xia Qingqian smiled and nodded at her, "Okay."
Just after two dishes were served, Tang Wan'er ran in breathlessly with her schoolbag on her back. She sat down, leaving her schoolbag beside her, and took a big sip of water. "The professor of my professional course has extended the class again. I'm so tired from running around." When Qin Qing called her, he had already told her that Xia Qingqian and Xiao Junhan would be there too, so naturally everyone greeted them.
"Then let's start eating. The smell makes me hungry." Qin Qing invited everyone to start eating.
Ten dishes were too many to finish, but after trying every one of them, Qin Qing ate and drank to his heart's content. He touched his stomach and said, "I feel so full. I'll go shopping more later. We still have crayfish to eat in the evening."
A foodie for sure.
After lunch, Xiao Junhan drove the three ladies to the city center. Qin Qing and the other three walked around in front, shopping, while he followed behind and did the hard work, carrying several bags in both hands.
Xia Qingqian was curious about the relationship between Xiao Junhan and Qin Qing. They didn't look like boyfriend and girlfriend, but they were very close. She couldn't help but ask, "Qingqing, how did you two know each other?"
Qin Qing glanced at Xiao Junhan and raised his eyebrows, "Him? I've known him since childhood."
Tang Wan'er playfully joked beside him, "Childhood sweethearts."
Xia Qingqian nodded in understanding.
Qin Qing stopped talking hastily, "Come on, we were probably enemies in our previous life, and we haven't finished arguing yet, so we're still arguing in this life." Then he turned to Xia Qingqian and said, "Don't listen to Wan'er's nonsense, have you ever seen childhood sweethearts quarreling with each other when they meet?" Then he spread his hands, "You haven't seen it, have you? If it were possible for us, we wouldn't have waited until now, and we would have been secretly in love a long time ago, hehehe."
Xia Qingqian glanced at Xiao Junhan who was following behind her, and then looked at Qin Qing. She really felt that the two of them were a good match. Judging from their looks alone, the man was gentle and handsome, and the woman was playful and beautiful, really pleasing to the eye.
After walking around for an afternoon, everyone's legs were sore, so they found a dessert shop to sit down and rest. Each of them ordered a glass of lemonade, and said they wanted to save their stomachs for the crayfish that Qin Qing mentioned was super delicious.
