It wasn't until the egg pancake was solemnly placed in Lu Zhihang's hand that he was a bit slow to react.
"What, stunned with joy?" Lin Wan was quite satisfied with his reaction. With a faint smile on her lips, she joked.
Lu Zhihang was in a daze for a while before he came to his senses. Immediately, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"You're really an interesting person!" he sighed deeply.
Lin Wan let out a soft chuckle. Biting into the egg pancake, she changed the topic: "Let's go. I'll take you to a shadier corner to eat."
Lu Zhihang replied with a smiling "Okay" and followed Lin Wan to a bench under the shade of a big tree and sat down.
Only then did he take off that pink mask.
Lin Wan finally got to see the lower half of his face. Combining it with her impression of the upper half, Lin Wan once again marveled at Lu Zhihang's god - given face in her heart.
He was really handsome!
Lu Zhihang took a bite of the egg pancake and suddenly burst out laughing. His slightly downturned mouth suddenly lifted, creating two shallow dimples on his cheeks.
Lin Wan sensed something was amiss and asked warily, "What are you laughing at?"
"Do you remember what I said the first time we met?" Lu Zhihang turned his head and looked at Lin Wan's face through his sunglasses. The smile on his lips showed a hint of teasing and playfulness under the shadow and the light not far away.
Lin Wan was stunned for a moment. Before she could say anything, she heard the man lean over to her ear and softly repeat a sentence from many days ago.
"If you really see my face, you have to be responsible for me."
The warm and gentle breath sprayed on the side of her ear. Lin Wan shivered violently, quickly covered her ears and jumped up, dodging Lu Zhihang. The egg pancake in her hand accidentally dropped to the ground, and the filling spilled everywhere.
Lu Zhihang looked up at Lin Wan. Through his sunglasses, Lin Wan could only see a patch of darkness.
"You're really sensitive~" Lu Zhihang laughed. His tone still seemed unhurried, but there was a touch of elegant rascality.
Lin Wan's face instantly turned red. She stared at Lu Zhihang for a long time but couldn't say a word.
Lu Zhihang stood up. Without putting on the mask again, he reached out his hand to hold Lin Wan's but missed as she jumped away.
Lu Zhihang was a bit stunned, and then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't dodge. I'll take you to eat something. Your pancake has dropped."
Lin Wan's face was still red. It turned red all the way from her face to the tips of her ears, then down her neck to her collarbone. At a glance, it was pink under the light, extremely alluring. Lu Zhihang couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Pervert!"
I don't know if she just came to her senses at this moment. Lin Wan stared at him angrily and cursed, then turned around and was about to leave. Seeing this, Lu Zhihang quickly reached out his hand to hold her and comforted her in a kind tone: "Don't be angry. I didn't do it on purpose. I'm sorry, okay? Can I take you out for a meal to make amends?"
Lin Wan didn't say a word. Her little face had completely cooled down. The blush hadn't faded yet, making her look a bit cold and charming.
"Come on, let's go. It's not easy for me to come out. Let me have some fun. I'll take you home after the meal, okay!" Lu Zhihang didn't give her a chance to refuse and pulled Lin Wan in the direction he remembered.
The pickled fish restaurant on the food street was a time - honored brand. The taste was extremely authentic. Every time Lu Zhihang came here, he always came to this restaurant. After coming here several times, he got to know the boss well.
As soon as they walked into the store, the boss didn't recognize him at first. He only suddenly looked up with a surprised expression when he heard the voice.
"Hey, big star. Why do you have time to come here today? It's not close from here to the city center or the east of the city. You didn't even call me in advance." The boss was a chubby middle - aged uncle with kindness written all over his face. When talking to Lu Zhihang, he deliberately lowered his voice for fear of causing a commotion.
"I was shopping with a friend. We just happened to walk here, so we came. Do you still have a private room?" Lu Zhihang said with a smile and tugged at Lin Wan.
The chubby boss was happy as soon as he saw this and quickly said, "Yes, yes. The one you always use is reserved for you. I've been waiting for you to come here suddenly."
"Okay, thank you, Uncle. It's still the same as before. Put less chili. She doesn't like spicy food." Lu Zhihang nodded with a smile and led Lin Wan familiarly to the private room on the second floor.
After entering the private room, Lin Wan sat down silently without saying a word. Her expression was still very cold.
"Are you still angry? I've already apologized." Lu Zhihang found it funny when he saw this and sat down next to her.
Lin Wan still ignored him and turned her head to the side.
The dishes were quickly served. Lu Zhihang pointed to the dishes and said, "Try them and see if they suit your taste. If you don't like them, we can change them."
Lin Wan pouted. She didn't make a fuss at this time. She picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
She used to come to this restaurant with Ye Zi and the others occasionally. The taste was impeccable, but the person sitting opposite her made her lose her appetite.
"Do you not like me?" Lu Zhihang asked after eating for a while. He looked up at her with his eyes squinted.
Lin Wan was startled and quickly shook her head: "No."
"Then why do you seem absent - minded?" Lu Zhihang raised his eyebrows. There was a hint of doubt and inquiry on his flawless face.
"Maybe I'm nervous. After all, a first - tier star is sitting opposite me having a meal with me. Anyone else would be nervous too." Lin Wan said casually.
Lu Zhihang squinted his eyes for a moment and didn't say anything else.
Lin Wan felt that this meal was extremely awkward and tiring. Coupled with her poor appetite, she didn't eat much. As soon as she put down her chopsticks, Lu Zhihang looked up, smiled at her and asked, "Are you full?"
"Yeah." Lin Wan took out her phone and glanced at it. She frowned imperceptibly.
It was already eight o'clock.
"Are you leaving?" Lu Zhihang picked up his hat and put it on, looking at her.
Lin Wan nodded: "I have something to do and want to go back... It's very... "
"Don't say polite words for now. I'll take you home." Lu Zhihang put on his sunglasses and gave her a gentle smile.
Lin Wan wanted to decline, but seeing Lu Zhihang's expression, she swallowed her words. She walked downstairs expressionlessly. Just as she was about to take out her phone to scan the code to pay the bill, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and took her phone away. She was startled. When she turned around, she saw Lu Zhihang's smiling eyes.
"I said I'm making amends to you. How can you pay? Let me do it." After saying that, Lu Zhihang took out his wallet without hesitation and handed it to the boss.
The chubby boss obviously had a lot of experience with this kind of thing. He took Lu Zhihang's wallet with a smile and said to Lin Wan after receiving the money, "It's okay, little girl. This guy has plenty of money. It's okay to spend some."
Lin Wan twitched the corners of her mouth and didn't say a word. Seeing Lu Zhihang put away his wallet, she turned around and walked out of the store.
Lu Zhihang quickly put his wallet in his pocket. While putting on his sunglasses, he caught up with her: "Hey, don't walk so fast. Are you angry again? I'm not saying you can't treat me. You've already treated me to an egg pancake. You can pay next time!"
