Chapter 1655 - An Appointment
Duan Shu Xian sneakily glanced at the man reading on the desk from time to time. She was looking forward to eating dinner with him, so she took the opportunity to call her parents.
She didn"t dare to say that she was eating with a man, but with a woman. Since she was young, she didn"t even have the courage to hold hands with a boy. Furthermore, her father"s discipline between her and the opposite s.e.x was rather tight.
Since young, they had never allowed anyone to bully her.
Therefore, Duan Shu Xian didn"t dare to report the matter of having a meal with a man.
Fortunately, her parents were very open-minded people, so they could be at ease if she wanted to eat with her friends.
Duan Shu Xian looked at the time and saw that it was already 5: 30 PM. She said to Auntie Huang, "Auntie Huang, I"ll be leaving first."
"Alright!" The Auntie Huang nodded.
Duan Shu Xian walked in front of Xi Jingchen, "Teacher Xi, let"s go!"
Xi Jingchen closed the book. He didn"t bring it out with him, but placed it back on the shelf and walked out of the library with Duan Shu Xian.
When Duan Shu Xian followed him to the car park, she looked around, afraid that she would meet a familiar teacher who would see her get into Xi Jingchen"s car.
How would she explain it if she told her father?
After getting in the car, Duan Shu Xian turned to the man beside her and asked, "Where are we going to eat?"
Xi Jingchen already had a schedule for a long time, he had a place for him to specialize in eating, and guests would also be received at that place. Usually, when his father and mother couldn"t take care of him, they would send him there to eat.
It was a place for him to eat dinner. It was very safe and he didn"t need any bodyguards to follow him around.
"You probably haven"t heard of that place before. Just come with me." Xi Jingchen opened his mouth and asked.
Duan Shu Xian nodded. "Alright."
Xi Jingchen"s car left, and the four remaining black car followed suit.
Xi Jingchen"s car drove onto a road that was very unfamiliar to Duan Shu Xian. She grew up in this city, and it seemed like she had never been to this kind of place before.
Duan Shu Xian"s mood relaxed as Xi Jingchen turned on the music. The music"s rhythm was graceful and gentle as it flowed into every corner of the carriage.
Duan Shu Xian asked curiously, "Is there a restaurant on this road?"
It was surrounded by what seemed to be high cla.s.s residences, but it was not a high-rise residential area. It was a low-rise residence surrounded by tall walls and trees. In such a golden area, it was not something that could be built with money.
What she knew was her grandfather"s house. Even if they were surrounded by tall buildings, they would still have to detour around his house for a kilometer before they could build a building.
Duan Shu Xian looked at Xi Jingchen"s car, the wheel was turned, and they entered a garden gate. The gate was opened for him by itself, and he drove in.
The four cars behind him stopped by the roadside and waited quietly. Xi Jingchen"s car stopped, and there was more than one car in the courtyard. Today, there were still a few tables full of customers.
In front of Xi Jingchen"s carriage, a middle-aged man immediately bowed down respectfully.
"Young Master Xi! "You"re here."
"Uncle Ze, I brought my friend here for dinner." Xi Jingchen immediately gestured.
The boss immediately understood. "Okay! Young Master Xi, please come in. "
Xi Jingchen brought Duan Shu Xian in. According to the arrangement, they were in a private room facing the setting sun garden. Duan Shu Xian didn"t expect this to be a restaurant!
There were still a few other customers eating at the table next to them. However, in this kind of restaurant, people like them would normally not be able to enter or find it.
Xi Jingchen gave her the menu, Duan Shu Xian ordered two servings, Xi Jingchen also ordered two servings, and added some dessert fruit.
After the waiter left, Duan Shu Xian was amazed, "There really is a restaurant here! How did you find this place? "
Xi Jingchen could only lie to her, "I only found out after coming here to eat with my friends."
"That man called you Young Master?" Why would he call you that! " Duan Shu Xian heard it, and her tone was especially respectful.
Xi Jingchen"s heart slightly tightened, and laughed, "He probably thinks I"m a certain rich young master!"
"And you are?" Duan Shu Xian asked with a smile.
"I am just an ordinary university teacher! My family doesn"t lack money. " Xi Jingchen had no choice but to hide his ident.i.ty. Other than his family, he could not reveal his ident.i.ty for the time being.
Duan Shu Xian held her chin as she sized him up. She felt that he not only looked like a young master from a rich family, but also like a member of a n.o.ble family!
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Xi Jingchen raised his cup, concealing the trace of nervousness in his heart.
"Don"t you know you"re famous in school? Almost all the girls are infatuated with you, you are not ordinary at all! " Duan Shu Xian teased him.
Xi Jingchen"s eyes flashed, as though he was innocent towards such matters.
"I didn"t think of anyone who would fall in love with me."
Duan Shu Xian giggled. "Who told you to be so good-looking!?" There"s no helping it, many girls these days are under the control of their looks. Moreover, you are both handsome and talented, which perfectly meets the requirements for them to pursue you. "
Xi Jingchen could only feel helpless about this kind of thing. He just wanted to merge into the world of ordinary people and experience life for himself.
His gaze suddenly locked onto the girl in front of him, then he asked with a low laugh, "Then are you like those girls?"
Duan Shu Xian reacted, her pretty face blus.h.i.+ng a little. "I like looking at handsome men too!" "It"s said that if you look at handsome guys more, you can live for a long time."
The smile in Xi Jingchen"s eyes deepened as she said this, "If you say it like that, then I should go to school more often and let you watch more every day."
Duan Shu Xian giggled. "Sure!"
Xi Jingchen stared at her and laughed without saying a word.
She held a cup of tea and realized that the tea was really tasty. She couldn"t help but pour another cup, and the setting sun outside the window reflected in the gla.s.s. The sunset glow was also very beautiful.
"Did you like the coffee I gave you last time?" Xi Jingchen asked her.
Duan Shu Xian nodded and praised, "That"s the best coffee I"ve ever had. Which shop did you pack it in!"
Xi Jingchen laughed, "They are not from the shop, they are from my family."
"Your family? You made it yourself? " Duan Shu Xian widened her eyes. Was she that lucky? Drink the coffee he made himself?
Xi Jingchen shook his head, "I didn"t make it, but my family always drinks this kind of coffee."
"Oh!" "Then your family"s coffee is so delicious."
"If you like it, I"ll send someone to give it to you every day." Xi Jingchen opened his mouth and asked.
However, Duan Shu Xian was startled. She waved her hand and said, "No need, no need. If I want coffee, there"s a coffee shop next door. It"s not too troublesome."
Xi Jingchen squinted, "Do you like the coffee Boss Jiang gave you?"
Duan Shu Xian was stunned for a moment. "The coffee in his house isn"t bad either."
"Is it better than mine?"
Duan Shu Xian compared them carefully with each other before smiling, "Your family"s is even better."
Xi Jingchen"s eyes revealed a hint of laughter, "Good! "Then I"ll get someone to give it to you in the future."
"No no, I can"t trouble you either." Duan Shu Xian thought how troublesome it was!
"It"s no trouble." Xi Jingchen"s voice dropped, his tone relaxed.
"There"s really no need …" When Duan Shu Xian wanted to reject him to the end, she felt that she wasn"t as reserved as that. Why would she need someone to bring her a cup of coffee every day?
What a n.o.ble treatment!
The smile in Xi Jingchen"s eyes faded, and he said a bit angrily, "You really like to reject me, don"t you? Why didn"t you reject others? "
For example, that Boss Jiang, didn"t she happily accept his breakfast?
Duan Shu Xian was a little taken aback. He was angry!
"Teacher Xi, thank you for your kind intentions. I don"t like to trouble others, and it"s not that I"m rejecting you, it"s just that I don"t like you. I still want to be friends with you." Duan Shu Xian said seriously.
"Do you like me?" Xi Jingchen asked straightforwardly.
Duan Shu Xian"s gaze was dazed. She was shocked. She blinked, not knowing how to reply for a few seconds.
Xi Jingchen"s eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation. He was waiting for her reply, full of patience.
Duan Shu Xian had no choice but to face the awkwardness with a smile as she admitted generously, "I like it! Of all the girls in school, who wouldn"t like you! Just like those people, I am also in charge of face control! "
Xi Jingchen received the answer, but it was not the one he wanted. It turned out that she simply liked his appearance.
