Chapter 464 Butterfly
Shen Rongrong was surprised. She also liked to eat wontons from Grandma Zhang, but this was the first time she met Qi Ningliang.
"Brother Qi, do you come here often? I come here often too, but I've never met you. So today is fate. The fresh meat filling is indeed delicious, but I feel a little sick of it. I still prefer pork with shepherd's purse."
Qi Ningliang smiled. When talking about food, the expression on Shen Rongrong's face was very interesting.
While the two were still discussing other fillings, Granny Zhang had already brought up the wontons. "Mr. Qi's is the fresh meat filling, and Miss Shen's is the shepherd's purse and pork filling. Enjoy your meal, there is still some bone soup in the pot, you can drink it to warm your body."
After saying this, Grandma Zhang left and turned back to continue her work.
The wontons in their stall are the freshest. Even if they are not sold out today, they will not appear on the stall tomorrow. Whenever there are unsold wontons, Grandma Zhang will either make them and share them with the little beggars nearby. If there are no little beggars, she will share them with the nearby cat slaves.
It's always fresh anyway.
Before he could eat, Shen Rongrong scooped a wonton stuffed with shepherd's purse and pork with a small spoon and brought it to Qi Ningliang, "Can I trade one with shepherd's purse for one with fresh meat?"
What a glutton.
He had tried his best to remain restrained and polite. The young lady in front of him probably didn't know how dangerous it was to talk to a man she wasn't very familiar with in the middle of the night.
Seeing Qi Ningliang was stunned, Shen Rongrong thought he didn't like it, so she quickly retracted the spoon, "I'm sorry, I was presumptuous. I got along well with Sister Qi, and I accidentally mistook his eldest brother for my eldest brother."
Qi Ningliang realized belatedly that he could hear his own deafening heartbeat. He just took a deep breath and continued to look at his bowl of soup before he started.
Shen Rongrong just thought, I hope she didn't scare Brother Qi. This was not her intention. It was so embarrassing.
It was because she hadn’t eaten dumplings with fresh meat filling for a long time, and she really felt that wontons with fresh meat filling were a bit too greasy, so she never ordered it every time.
But Qi Ningliang's words just now made him extremely greedy, and he thought that it would not be a loss to exchange his shepherd's purse and pork filling for a fresh meat filling. Besides, hers also had meat, right?
In order to hide her embarrassment, Shen Rongrong wished she could bury her entire head in the bowl. It was so embarrassing.
But looking into Qi Ningliang's eyes, he felt that Shen Rongrong was eating very happily. She might have not eaten delicious food for a long time.
I didn’t eat so much in restaurants in Kyoto. I’m afraid it’s because I haven’t had any delicious food in the past few days.
For a moment, the only sound in the room was the crisp sound of the spoon hitting the bowl. Qi Ningliang finally couldn't bear it anymore. He was most afraid of this seemingly calm atmosphere.
"Ms. Shen, I want to ask, why is the pen holder you gave me... such a strange-looking cat?"
Qi Ningliang has been studying for many years, and he has always felt that people always have a purpose when doing things. Even if it is a simple gift, it represents some meaning.
But he had been thinking about it over and over again these days, but still couldn't figure out what the strange-looking raccoon represented.
He even looked for the notebook in which Shen Rongrong said those "incomprehensible" words, but he still didn't find any clues, which made him even more curious.
Shen Rongrong had just stuffed a wonton into her mouth when she looked at Qi Ningliang in amazement. "What's so strange about it? It's my cat, named Xiaohua, and it's very cute."
Speaking of which, this small pen holder was originally intended to be given to Qi Ningan, but she seemed to have accidentally offended Qi Ningliang, so she could only give it to him, always thinking that she would compensate it to Sister Qi next time.
Although this thing was made by herself, she didn't leave her maiden name on it, and secondly, she had the relationship with Sister Qi, so Shen Rongrong didn't think much about it when she stuffed it into her pocket.
As a result, Qi Ningliang actually said that her Xiaohua was a strange-looking cat, which was really too much.
"Ah...ah this...is indeed very cute, but I've never seen a cat with such a pattern, let alone one with its belly turned up. So I thought this gift was cute and thoughtful, and couldn't help but ask a few more questions. If Miss Shen minds, I apologize."
Qi Ningliang's serious apology made Shen Rongrong burst out laughing. There are actually such serious people in this world.
I used to think that my cousin was serious enough. He was very methodical every day and took everything very seriously.
But I didn't expect that there would be someone like Qi Ningliang. I was obviously not angry, but he seemed a little nervous.
"Brother Qi, don't take it so seriously. I was just saying it casually. If you don't like it, I'll give you another gift next time."
Shen Rongrong smiled an extremely beautiful smile. This was the first time Qi Ningliang saw Shen Rongrong's face clearly. He had never thought that the person in front of him could smile more beautifully than a flower. In the past, he thought that this person was cute and innocent at most.
"No... no need..."
Qi Ningliang didn't dare to look at Shen Rongrong anymore and quickly shifted his gaze.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to have a crush on someone.
Every frown and smile of the person in front of him could move his heart, not to mention his own deafening heartbeat and the anxious feeling that made him unable to sit still.
"Mrs. Shen...Mrs. Shen."
Qi Ningliang spoke. He was not the hesitant person like Gu Qingyun. Once he thought it through, he would ask clearly to prevent him from being unable to sleep tonight.
Shen Rongrong looked up at Qi Ningliang, puzzled. Sister Qi’s brother was so strange.
"Is Madam Shen married?"
Qi Ningliang finally uttered these words, and for a moment, everything was silent.
No matter how thick-skinned Shen Rongrong was, she understood what he meant. She couldn't help but blush and didn't dare to look at Qi Ningliang like that anymore.
"No...no..."
Shen Rongrong lowered her head in response, but she couldn't avoid the redness on her ears.
Qi Ningliang was delighted, but then he heard Shen Rongrong speak again, "My family told me... that I had many marriage proposals, but they always fell through when I wasn't careful. Brother Qi, I'm not lying to you, it seems like I'm going to be a nun at home for the rest of my life."
While saying this, Shen Rongrong kept fiddling with the remaining wontons in the bowl with the small white jade spoon. Everyone could see the loneliness in her expression.
Qi Ningliang's heart tightened, he knew about this.
"I don't care. I think that if you keep missing out, it proves that the person you are waiting for is in the future, and I happen to be in the future, so the person you are waiting for must be me."
Shen Rongrong's ears moved slightly, and then her shoulders began to shake. The round-faced girl seemed to have grown wings and turned into a beautiful butterfly.
Dancing in this snowy night, wings fluttering, tears falling.
