If love can be booked

Chapter 224: Eating with Lu Jinchuan, I feel very depressed

Happiness. Looking at the people around me, they are all so happy. Suddenly I feel so lonely. Should I try to find my own happiness?

Where should the lost happiness go?

He said he was happy, he said he didn't need her, he said he just wanted to be alone.

Try to leave him, try not to think about him, try not to love him, try to say I will give up, try to accept the people around me, try, she will try, try to forget him.

Who said, if you don’t leave me in this life, I will never abandon you?

Who said that you are my only one in this life?

Who said, I will love you until the end of my life?

Who said I only remember you?

Just as my thoughts were in a mess, a crisp ringing sound broke the silence of the night. "Ding Ding..."

"Hello." The familiar yet unfamiliar name appeared on the screen. His phone number?

"Flower Season for You" Theme Restaurant

He called? He wanted to have a meal together. When she finally came to her senses, she found that she had already arrived at the theme restaurant called "Flower Season for You".

Only she herself knew how ecstatic she was when she heard his invitation. But when her mind flashed to his cold and ruthless face, all her enthusiasm was extinguished instantly, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head. Because she didn't know how to deal with him like this.

With an uneasy mood, she slowly pushed open the door of the restaurant. After a quick glance, she soon found his figure in the corner. Unlike before, this time he did not choose to sit in a prominent position in the main restaurant, but sat quietly in a corner by the window. The light shone on him, outlining a soft golden edge. A bunch of gorgeous Clivia was placed on the dining table, adding a warm and romantic atmosphere to the whole scene.

The moment she saw him, she couldn't help but smile. He seemed to be in a good mood today because he didn't frown. He waved and she nodded.

"There was a traffic jam. I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long." Actually, if there was no traffic jam, he wouldn't have to wait too long. But, the two of them just sat there in silence, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Unfortunately, she wasn't very good at finding topics to talk about.

"I just arrived too." He had actually been here a long time ago, before he called her. This was his restaurant, and the flowers on the table were his idea. Suddenly, he couldn't remember why he wanted to open a restaurant.

After walking around the restaurant, I felt like there was nothing important to deal with. I didn't want to go home because my house was empty. So I flipped through the phone book and her name came to my eyes. When I heard her familiar voice on the other end of the phone, I didn't feel any regret at all. Instead, I felt an indescribable joy. I hope to see her at this moment.

"What do you want to eat?" Lu Jinchuan asked softly with a smile. Strangely enough, every time he had dinner with her, he would notice that she ate very little. He thought she might not like the dishes he ordered.

"All is fine," she replied softly. Was he asking her what she wanted to eat? Today, his behavior seemed so abnormal, so different from the past. Could it be that he no longer hated her as much as before? This thought came to her mind involuntarily.

"You order." Lu Jinchuan frowned slightly, showing a hint of displeasure on his face. As he spoke, he handed the menu to her. He thought to himself, what does it mean to have anything?

"Oh." Shen Wanning couldn't help but feel a little surprised. She thought, what's wrong with this person? The atmosphere was quite harmonious just now, why did he suddenly become so moody?

She took the menu and slowly scanned the dishes on it. Recalling the time they spent together in the past, Shen Wanning finally chose some dishes they used to taste frequently, including his favorite spicy and sour cabbage and her favorite braised eggplant. Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"I want another cup of coffee." Shen Wanning raised her head and looked at the waiter standing not far away.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter responded with a professional smile and a polite nod. However, just as the waiter turned around and prepared to leave, Lu Jinchuan suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly shouted, "Wait! Change the coffee to... juice."

"Why?" Shen Wanning protested dissatisfiedly. In the past, he controlled her like this, and she was willing. But now, the relationship between them has changed drastically. What position does he have to control her again?

Facing her questioning, Lu Jinchuan did not get angry. Instead, he frowned, looked at her carefully, and said slowly: "I'm just worried that others will think that our company treats employees harshly."

"You look bad." As he said that, he stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Shen Wanning's cheek, but stopped when he was about to touch her.

Shen Wan Ning subconsciously dodged back. However, despite her reluctance, she still muttered, "I know. Juice is juice." For some reason, at this moment she had the illusion that he was him.

Just then, the waiters began to bring plates of delicious food to the table one after another.

However, perhaps because they were in too much of a hurry, one of the waiters accidentally knocked over the water glass placed nearby.

"Ah." Shen Wanning quickly grabbed her cell phone. It was wet and had been soaked in water. She turned it off, unplugged the battery, grabbed a napkin, and wiped it gently. Her brows also furrowed.

Seeing this, the waitress at the side panicked and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Miss Wan Ning, I didn't mean it!" As she spoke, she stood there at a loss, her eyes full of regret and self-blame.

She looked up at the waiter, forced a smile and said, "Forget it, it's okay." Even so, only she knew in her heart that this phone had a special meaning to her. It's okay, she can say it to everyone, it's okay, but she can't forgive herself.

"I'm really sorry, Miss Wan Ning." Oh, why is she so careless?

At this moment, Lu Jinchuan, who was sitting opposite, noticed Shen Wanning's nervous expression and asked, "Your phone is very beautiful." He seemed to ask casually, but his eyes always stayed on Shen Wanning, as if he wanted to see more emotions through her expression. In fact, from Shen Wanning's series of actions just now, he had already seen how much she cherished this phone.

"Thank you." She said softly, her eyes fell on the phone in her hand, with a hint of tenderness and gratitude in her eyes. This phone was bought for her by him. That time, they had a quarrel and he suddenly appeared, scaring her phone so much that it fell into the pond. The next day, it was on her desk.

"He bought it?" Seeing how much she treasured it, she knew it was more than just a phone, right? There must be some story behind it? Lu Jinchuan actually felt a little jealous, jealous of him?

"Hmm? Hmm..." Hearing Lu Jinchuan's question, she was slightly stunned at first, then nodded gently and replied: "Yes, so I don't want it to leave me either."

There was a small incident during the meal and the atmosphere became a bit awkward.

One person was thinking about his own thoughts silently, while the other was sulking in secret.

Faced with such an awkward situation, no one knew how to break the deadlock, or how to treat each other who were so unfamiliar. The entire restaurant was so quiet that only the occasional crisp sound of tableware colliding with each other could be heard. The sound was particularly clear in the silent environment, and even made people feel depressed and almost suffocated.

"I, I'm going to the bathroom." Shen Wanning stood up slowly from her seat with a pale face. Her legs felt weak, as if the whole world was spinning upside down at this moment. She couldn't imagine what would happen if she continued to stay here. An indescribable fear gripped her heart tightly, making her almost unable to breathe.

At this moment, she felt that the air around her had become extremely heavy and oppressive, like an invisible yoke that bound her, making her feel suffocated and at a loss. Tears flowed out uncontrollably like a flood that broke through a dam, sliding down her cheeks. She tried desperately to stop the tears, but the harder she tried, the more violent the tears flowed.

She had never imagined that this familiar yet unfamiliar man would exude such a powerful aura when he was silent.

Lu Jinchuan didn't know what was wrong with him. He obviously didn't hate her that much now. Or rather, at the beginning, he hated her very much and couldn't see her. Because seeing her would give him a headache.

Every time I saw her feelings for him, that love, that resentment, they were deeply engraved in my heart. I thought about her tears, her strength, and her disguise.

Why did I have to be angry with her? Was it because of love? This thought even shocked me. It was impossible.

"Do you love crying so much?" Looking at her red and swollen eyes, she must have secretly wiped away tears just now. Although her heart was full of pity and reluctance, she said harsh words.

"I'm sorry." Shen Wanning bit her lower lip tightly, tears welling up in her eyes, her heart filled with endless grievances. Is it her fault that she loves to cry?

"Oh." Seeing this, Lu Jinchuan couldn't help but sigh softly, then stretched out his arms and held the petite and weak person in front of him tightly in his arms.

Sorry, I didn't mean it.

Just thinking of you, my heart aches and tears fall

I don't know how it became like this

I pretend to be strong

Every time I see you, I feel broken.

I thought I would be strong

But your eyes always make me miss the past

Lamenting the current time

You are not by my side, I look up to you, feeling sad
