Chapter 11: 4.1

“Oh.” Ning Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted: “Then if you really like this tiramisu, how about we split it between us?”

The rectangular box was actually a little bit too much, and Ning Qingqing couldn’t finish it all by herself. Because it was not the kind that has gelatin added to it, its shape was a bit irregular and was not very convenient to pack.

But once Ning Qingqing asked, she started to regret it. Although she knew who he was, Gu Youchen probably didn’t know her. Maybe he doesn’t even remember bumping into her in the corridor that day.

But before Ning Qingqing could withdraw her suggestion, she heard the man say: “Okay.” The tone of his voice rose slightly towards the end, sounding very happy.

Well, it seems like he really likes this shop’s tiramisu…

“Then, will the two of you eat here?” the clerk asked, “I will help you divide it into two.”

Ning Qingqing was very vexed by her suggestion just now, but what’s done is done1, so she could only sigh in her heart, but she was calm on the outside: “Okay, thank you.”

The clerk divided the tiramisu in two, placed it on two plates, and handed it to the two of them respectively.

Very few customers dine in this store, most just buy and leave, so there were only two small tables in the store.

Ning Qingqing held her plate and hesitated. She hadn’t paid Gu Youchen back yet and talking about transferring the money while they sat at one table as if they were close would be a little embarrassing.

However, the man was one step ahead and had already sat down at one of the small round tables. He picked up a napkin and wiped down the seat opposite him, then nodded at Ning Qingqing.

“Oh, thank you.” Ning Qingqing could only go over and sit down, then she took out her phone: “You just paid, I’ll transfer my half to you.”

Gu Youchen seemed to hesitate for a moment, just when Ning Qingqing was about to explain that she didn’t mind making a direct deposit so that he wouldn’t have to add her as a friend on WeChat, the man had already opened his WeChat QR code and handed it over.

Gu Youchen’s WeChat avatar was an abstract geometric figure, Ning Qingqing felt that her mind wasn’t thinking properly2, she even thought the figure looked like tiramisu.

She opened her WeChat QR scanner and clicked to add friends. In front of him, she felt bad if she were to choose the ‘don’t let him(her) see me’3 option, so she just clicked send.

Gu Youchen accepted in seconds, and Ning Qingqing transferred half the cost to him.

After receiving it, Gu Youchen put away his phone and began to eat with his head down.

He was dressed in business attire which seemed out of place in a cake shop like this but looking at the way he was scooping the cream, there was an inexplicable cuteness due to the contrast.

Ning Qingqing realized that she had been staring at him for more than a few seconds, she quickly retracted her gaze, and silently began to eat her portion.

At this moment, her phone rang, and it was Shen Zhiqian who called.
