&Quot; Oh, then go quickly. Don’t let Lin Gong wait too long. &Quot; Su lanxu remembered that it was the weekend. They were supposed to go on a date, but she had delayed them.
&Quot; thank you for helping me move. I’ll treat you and Lin Gong to a meal another day. &Quot;
Xu Jialu put on his coat and looked up at her. &Quot; I’m helping you move. Why are you treating her to a meal? ”
Su lanxu was speechless.
She suddenly felt that being his girlfriend was really pitiful. She didn’t even get to eat with him.
Xu Jialu walked in front of her, picked up a plate of cut fruit, and threw it into his mouth. As he ate, he said, ” there are tangyuans in the fridge. Remember to cook a bowl for yourself tonight. &Quot;
“Do you know how to cook tangyuans?” he asked after a pause.
“Of course I will.” Su lanxu felt that he was looking down on her, so she said angrily,”Hurry up and go on a date with your girlfriend. Don’t meddle in the fairy’s Affairs.”
Suspicion flashed in Xu Jialu’s Phoenix eyes, but he didn’t ask any more questions. He took another piece of cantaloupe and threw it into his mouth before walking away.
Su lanxu put down the fruit platter and closed the curtains with the remote control. She turned on the TV and watched a Foreign Language Film while eating fruit.
Halfway through the movie, she couldn’t help but yawn and close her eyes to sleep.
……
Movie theater.
Lin Wanying had booked the most popular sci-fi film of late. It was a full three and a half hours long. Because the scenes were Grand and realistic, and the plot was compact, no one in the fully-seated theater was sleeping. Everyone was watching it with rapt attention.
Lin Wanying considerately bought him Coke and tea. When they finished drinking, the movie finally ended.
Xu Jialu stood up and stretched his body. &Quot; f * ck, it’s such a long movie. Why doesn’t it just shoot for ten hours? ”

Lin Wanying helped him pick up his phone and passed it to him. &Quot; I thought you would like this kind of movie. &Quot;
“It’s alright.” &Quot; I’m surprised, ” Xu Jialu replied and looked at her again. &Quot; I didn’t expect you to be able to read it. &Quot;
Most girls would not be interested in such movies.
“I watch all kinds of movies,” Lin Wanying followed him out. &Quot; what do you want to eat tonight? ”
“As you wish.”
&Quot; there’s a hot pot restaurant that’s pretty good recently. I haven’t had hot pot in a long time. Are you okay with it? ” Lin Wanying asked for his opinion.
“Sure.” After Xu Jialu finished speaking, he saw the sign for the washroom. &Quot; I’m going to the washroom. &Quot;
Lin Wanying nodded and picked up her phone to make a reservation.
It was past five in the afternoon, and there were already many people in the hot pot restaurant.
Lin Wanying had booked a secluded spot where there were not many people and it was not very noisy.
After they sat down, she asked Xu Jialu to order.
“I’m fine with anything you order.” Xu Jialu picked up his teacup to drink some water. He couldn’t help but think of su lanxu.
Did she cook tangyuans tonight?
Did she really know how to cook tangyuans?
Would she fail to turn off the gas stove? that could cost her life.
After Lin Wanying finished ordering, she saw that he was holding his teacup in a daze. She took the initiative to ask, ” what’s wrong? ”
Xu Jialu came back to his senses, looked up at her, and shook his head. &Quot; nothing. &Quot;
&Quot; I’ll get you the dipping sauce. I have an exclusive secret recipe. &Quot; Lin Wanying’s tone carried a rare hint of smugness.
Xu Jialu didn’t want to be a wet blanket, so he nodded and agreed.
Lin Wanying put down her phone, got up, and walked to the seasoning area.
Xu Jialu picked up his phone and looked at WeChat.
He had muted his WeChat when he was watching the movie. At this moment, there were only a few chat groups for work and a group for playing games.
He hesitated for a while but still sent a message to su Lan Xu.
The message was sent, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, there was no response.
Xu Jialu waited for three minutes, as if it had been three centuries. Seeing that she didn’t reply, he called her directly.
No one picked up, so he called again, and still no one picked up.
Could something have really happened?
The more Xu Jialu thought about it, the more uneasy he became. That idiot did not even know how to cook, so he definitely did not know how to use a gas stove.
There wasn’t a landline in the villa and he didn’t have the number of the estate’s management. He couldn’t contact Su Lan Xu at all.
Lin Wanying came back with two bowls of dipping sauce and placed one in front of him. She had just sat down when she saw him frowning. He seemed to be in a bad mood.
“What happened?”
Xu Jialu did not hide anything from her. &Quot; su lanxu is moving today. I asked her to make a bowl of tangyuan for dinner, but she hasn’t replied to my messages or answered my calls. I don’t know what she’s up to. &Quot;
Lin Wanying took in the frustration and uneasiness between his brows. She pursed her lips and said, ” she lives alone and no one knows what happened to her. It’s indeed very worrying. Why don’t you go and take a look? ”
Xu Jialu’s lowered eyes looked up at her and then at the dishes served by the waiter.
Lin Wanying said considerately, ” I’ll get a friend to come over and eat with me later. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a gathering with my friends. You can go without worry. &Quot;
Xu Jialu didn’t hesitate after hearing her say that. He got up and was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something. He took out a card from his pocket and handed it to her.
“Go shopping with them after dinner. Buy whatever you like.”
There were millions in the card, which should be enough for her to buy.
Lin Wanying did not reject his good intentions. She accepted the card and thanked him.
“Then I won’t be polite.”
Xu Jialu nodded and turned to leave.
Lin Wanying looked at the card in her hand and smiled. She did not make things difficult for herself and immediately called her friend to have dinner with her.
He had to “digest” his food properly after dinner.
……
Xu Jialu rushed to the SU family’s Villa and stood at the door, ringing the doorbell continuously.
After a while, the door was opened. Su Lan Xu had just been woken up, and her mind was still in a daze. When she saw him, she didn’t even manage to react before he gave her a scolding.
“Why didn’t you reply to my message? He still didn’t pick up the phone! What are you doing, su Lan Xu!”
Su lanxu was confused. &Quot; I … I was sleeping in the afternoon and my phone was on silent. &Quot;
Who would turn on their phone and wait for their boss to call them on a weekend?
Xu Jialu thought about how she was sleeping so soundly and heartlessly while he was worried the whole way.
“Su Lan Xu, are you a pig? ‘You slept until late in the morning and continued to sleep in the afternoon. Even a pig can’t sleep as well as you.’ Were you a dead man in your past life? I only want to sleep for the rest of my life!”
&Quot; I’ve been busy with work for a week and finally got two days off. You asked me to move in the middle of the night and spent most of the night. What’s wrong with me sleeping more in the day? ”
Su lanxu felt wronged after being scolded. She retorted indignantly and looked at him with her round, almond-shaped eyes.
Xu Jialu was at a loss for words.
Su lanxu slowly came to her senses. &Quot; aren’t you on a date with Lin Gong? why are you at my house? ”
“I’m just passing by. I’m afraid you’ll kill yourself.”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Su lanxu was dumbfounded. What did he mean? (⊙ˍ⊙)
After taking a few steps, Xu Jialu stopped and turned back to look at her. &Quot; have you had dinner? ”
Su lanxu shook her head. She was woken up by him!
Xu Jialu took a deep breath, turned around, and said, ” “I’m hungry. I’ll make tangyuan with you tonight.”
He didn’t give su lanxu a chance to reply. He walked past her and into the kitchen.
