A Girl Conquers the World Through Her Tears-Chapter 33: Is This a Date
Chapter 33
Lin Jianzhi felt that the road from the amusement park to the hotel was so long that she almost couldn't stand it before arriving.
Finally, after half an hour, Zhu Liheng drove the car to the hotel they had booked.
Mu Yin and the two others got off the car giggling and thanking him, and took their own luggage respectively.
Lang Shu was even more excited to run out from the hotel lobby, wanting to chat with Zhu Liheng for a moment.
At this time, Lin Jianzhi also got out of the passenger seat silently, and walked to the trunk to get her luggage.
Zhu Liheng, who was talking to Lang Shu, suddenly reached out and closed the trunk!
Lin Jianzhi was left empty-handed, stunned as she looked up at him.
At this moment Zhu Liheng was expressionless, with a domineering attitude: "You're not going in, you're coming to dinner with me."
Lin Jianzhi hurriedly lowered her head again, her face flushed.
Lang Shu was clever, simply thanked Zhu Liheng for driving them over before waving goodbye.
He also pulled the still chattering Jiang Jingyi away!
Zhu Liheng's attitude towards Lang Shu had changed from initial wariness to great satisfaction today.
First he took advantage of the group trip to send the little girl over to him, then took away the very talkative classmate, giving them time alone together.
The monitor was quite capable.
The two got back into the car and fell completely silent.
Zhu Liheng breathed a sigh of relief. It had really been noisy just now, unexpectedly the girl's classmates could chat so much.
As for Lin Jianzhi, she suddenly became nervous and at a loss about what to do. Why was she suddenly alone with Zhu Liheng for no reason?
Zhu Liheng glanced at the person next to him from the corner of his eye, smiling in his eyes: "What do you feel like eating?"
Lin Jianzhi: "Anything is fine."
At the moment her mind was full of nervous emotions, where could she think about what to eat.
Zhu Liheng: "Shall I decide?"
Lin Jianzhi: "Okay, good."
After speaking, she felt that she really didn't say much. Zhu Liheng had come to pick her up on such a hot day, and had even helped send her classmates to the hotel.
Although she wasn't the class monitor, it started because of her, so she should properly thank Zhu Liheng.
So Lin Jianzhi quickly said, "Thank you for today. It's my treat, I'll pay."
Otherwise, they would probably have had to stand in the blazing sun at the door for much longer.
She was bad at talking, and was even more like she had lost her ability to speak in front of Zhu Liheng. She just kept expressing her intention to treat him to a meal.
Little did she know that before they arrived at the restaurant, it would seem more and more awkward.
Fortunately, Zhu Liheng did not mind such things at all. What he cared about were other aspects.
He immediately frowned and firmly refused: "No."
Lin Jianzhi was stunned: "Ah?"
Zhu Liheng thought for a moment and said, "You just finished the college entrance examination and don't have an income yet. I’ll pay."
For a moment, Lin Jianzhi didn't even know how to refute it and stupidly nodded.
At a traffic light, Zhu Liheng asked again: "Do you like playing basketball?"
Lin Jianzhi was stunned!
She looked at Zhu Liheng in bewilderment and shock, completely unable to understand how he could ask such a sentence.
Did she look like someone who liked playing basketball?
In fact, Lin Jianzhi even suspiciously glanced at her own outfit.
Dress, white sneakers, gentle ponytail.
Looking like this, how could she play basketball???
Zhu Liheng was silent for a second, suddenly not understanding. 𝖋𝔯𝔢𝔢𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪
If she doesn't like playing basketball, what does the basketball frame mean?
Afterwards, Lin Jianzhi did not speak again. Her mind was full of thoughts about what to do if Zhu Liheng wanted to take her to play basketball after the meal.
Should she refuse or refuse!
After a while, Zhu Liheng asked again: "So what do you like?"
Lin Jianzhi's heart rate suddenly accelerated again. She stuttered, "I like..."
You.
She clenched her teeth tightly. She didn't have the courage to say the last word out loud no matter what.
She was afraid she would go crazy from nervousness!
But she also had a glimmer of anticipation, her heartbeat pounding wildly faster.
The fleeting bewilderment and ambiguous feeling made Lin Jianzhi feel like she was on a roller coaster.
No, more exciting than a roller coaster!
In the end, she didn’t manage to blurt anything else out.
Fortunately, Zhu Liheng did not ask further.
Just as her emotions were being pulled back and forth, and her mind was about to snap.
The car stopped at a brownish red facade. The style of the house looked very retro, like a building left over from the Republican era.
"We're here," Zhu Liheng said, opening the car door and getting out.
Lin Jianzhi also hurriedly got out of the car to catch up, afraid to keep Zhu Liheng waiting.
In her opinion, he must be very busy. Busy but taking time out to take her to eat, she could not dawdle.
This was an inconspicuous alley. Zhu Liheng led her towards that unique retro brown building.
Walking closer, Lin Jianzhi saw that there was a very chic little door.
As Zhu Liheng pushed the door open, he propped it open for her.
Lin Jianzhi's face flushed red as she squeezed past him. The two were very, very close again.
She could even feel Zhu Liheng's breath, as well as the scorching gaze looking at her from up close.
Lin Jianzhi didn't know how to describe it. It was a very hot gaze.
She knew she definitely would not dare meet it head on.
She would desperately sink into it!
Soon, she was attracted by the exquisite and retro decor.
The black walnut theme ran through the entire interior of the restaurant. All kinds of exquisite little objects were placed in the most suitable places.
It made this private kitchen look very special and attractive. Every angle was suitable for taking pictures.
Zhu Liheng walked forward and reported his surname and phone number.
Immediately a waiter came forward to lead the two inside.
Lin Jianzhi was a little surprised to find out that he had booked a table for them to dine beforehand.
The lighting throughout the restaurant was not very bright, slightly dim, very hazy.
Their dining spot was in a corner of the hall, a little hidden. Wooden table, wooden chairs, retro and delicate.
Sitting here, Lin Jianzhi felt like she had traveled back decades ago.
On a date.
She didn't know what she was doing throughout the whole process of ordering food and dining. She also didn't remember what she ate.
It should have been very delicious, every dish was delicious.
But nothing attracted her more than Zhu Liheng...
Under the dim warm light, that figure in a white shirt sat across from her.
Unlike his sunny, youthful temperament in the daytime, Zhu Liheng now looked so mature and elegant.
In such an environment, he was like a young master who had walked out of the Republican era.
Lin Jianzhi stared at him unconsciously as she looked at him, completely engrossed.
Zhu Liheng looked up from his meal during a lull and met her intent gaze.
Lin Jianzhi quickly shifted her eyes away. Fortunately, her blushing face was not obvious due to the dim lighting.
The corner of Zhu Liheng’s mouth curved up imperceptibly: “Where do you want to go after eating? To watch a movie? Or go shopping?"
Where could Lin Jianzhi possibly answer? She hemmed and hawed for a long time.
She didn’t want to go anywhere, she just wanted to look at you under such dim lights.
“What did you say?” Zhu Liheng thought she had said something, but couldn’t hear clearly because it was too soft.
So he moved his chair over and leaned in.
Suddenly, their shoulders were only ten centimeters apart!
