One big and one small are practicing love

"Oh! Little girl, we're here."

Hearing the driver's voice, Liu Xiaochen opened his eyes and felt that he had slept for a long time. I was in a daze for a moment, not knowing where I was, what time it was, or what I was going to do.

"Little girl, are you going to a certain university of finance and economics?" the driver asked again.

Liu Xiaochen turned to look out the window and saw a layer of moisture on the glass. He wiped it with his hands. He saw the familiar school gate and remembered that he was going to have dinner with Shen Liang.

Check out and take off your suitcase. As he walked towards the school gate, he called Shen Liang.

"I'm at school, where have you been?"

"I'm at the main entrance of your school. Where are you in the school?"

Liu Xiaochen stood still, looked around, and saw a flash of bright yellow in the crowd. He also happened to raise his eyes and see Liu Xiaochen. He walked over and she walked over.

"Long time no see." They both laughed at the same time.

"You have been working for two or three years, and you meet clients in the afternoon and you still dress like a student." Liu Xiaochen said.

Shen Liang looked down at what he was wearing, a lemon yellow sports jacket, loose blue jeans, and white sneakers. He smiled and said: "I am still young, I just turned 25 today. We who work in animation like people who are young and energetic like me."

"Today is your birthday?"

"Yes!" Shen Liang nodded and said, "I got off the plane this morning and received a call from my mother, and then I found out about my birthday. She also specifically told me to come and see you."

"Tell me what you want to eat, and I'll treat you to it. I owe you three years of food, and I'll make up for it this time with interest." Liu Xiaochen vowed.

"On such a cold day, let's eat hot pot. I just checked the guide and found that the 'Hao Zai Lai' hot pot near your school has a good reputation."

"Yes, I know. It's only a three- to five-minute walk from the back door of the school. Come with me. I'll go back to the dormitory and put my suitcase in, and I'll return the books I borrowed from you.

"Are you still thinking about this? Don't return it to me. I have to check it in when I return to Hangzhou. It's too troublesome." Shen Liang said, looking down at Liu Xiaochen's suitcase, he asked with a smile: "What are you doing with the suitcase? You Are you leaving? Or are you just coming back from somewhere?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaochen's eyes immediately turned red and tears overflowed in his eyes. Without saying anything, he grabbed his suitcase and walked forward alone.

Shen Liangjing watched for a while, then trotted to catch up, grabbed the suitcase from Liu Xiaochen's hand, and stood beside her.

Liu Xiaochen raised his head and was about to open his mouth to say something. Shen Liang smiled and said, "Have you been to that hot pot restaurant? I heard that the mushroom soup there is delicious."

"Been there once. Soup..." Liu Xiaochen lowered his head and searched his memory, remembering the time he came to see Zuo Xu at a hot pot restaurant with his roommate. I only remember this incident, not the taste of the soup. "Try it yourself, everyone has different preferences."

"Is there any good food near your school? I'm on a business trip in Beijing for a week and I live near your school. I'll come over to eat if I have nothing to do."

Liu Xiaochen shook his head and said, "I'm not sure. I rarely go out to eat. I only eat in the school cafeteria at noon."

"Then what's delicious in your school cafeteria? I've eaten too much in restaurants and takeaways. I still miss the food in the cafeteria."

……

Chatting casually, walking slowly on campus. After a while, I arrived downstairs in the girls' dormitory. Shen Liang was waiting downstairs while Liu Xiaochen carried the box back to the dormitory. After putting down my luggage, I quickly went out.

The two came to the 'Hao Zai Lai' hotpot restaurant.

As soon as I entered, I saw the room full of white water vapor, smelled the rich spicy smell, and heard noisy voices. For some reason, Liu Xiaochen, who didn't like liveliness, suddenly felt particularly safe, comfortable and full at this moment.

After ordering the meal, they made their own sesame sauce and took the free fruits and cold dishes provided in the store while waiting for the meal.

After sitting down, Liu Xiaochen began to eat without saying a word. Before the hot pot was served, Liu Xiaochen ate sour oranges one after another and jelly with a strong mustard flavor, which brought tears to his eyes. After the hot pot is served, you can eat whatever is in the pot.

She suddenly felt very hungry and wanted to eat everything.

"Liu Xiaochen, the fish balls have just been cooked and are not yet cooked yet." Shen Liang said urgently.

"Oh!" Liu Xiaochen took back his chopsticks and looked at the table to see if there was anything else to eat. When he saw a plate of tofu, he picked it up and ate it.

Shen Liang didn't say anything. He touched the fungus soup he had just filled. It was warm enough to drink. He handed it to Liu Xiaochen and said, "Drink some hot soup."

"Thank you." Liu Xiaochen took the bowl and drank heavily.

Shen Liang took out some cooked food from the pot, put it into Liu Xiaochen's bowl, and said, "Eat more when you are hungry, but eat slowly."

As soon as he finished speaking, the plates on the table vibrated slightly and regularly. The two of them looked at the mobile phone on the table, which belonged to Liu Xiaochen. It’s a WeChat video request, and the name shows ‘Teacher Zuo’.

Liu Xiaochen put down the soup bowl leisurely, picked up his cell phone, switched to voice call, and connected.

"I'm downstairs in your dormitory, come down."

"I'm not at school."

"Where are you? I'll go find you."

"I'm eating hot pot with friends near the school. Just wait for me and I'll be there right away."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

The two spoke calmly and calmly.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Xiaochen looked up at Shen Liang and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, Shen Liang. I have something to do and I have to leave first. I'll pay the bill first and you can eat slowly."

"When I went to the bathroom just now, I had already paid the bill." After Shen Liang said this, he hesitated and asked, "Do you need me to accompany you there?"

Liu Xiaochen was wiping his mouth with a napkin and shook his head. Picking up the mobile phone on the table and putting it in his pocket, he smiled and said, "Happy birthday, I'll invite you another day."

Coming out of the steaming hot pot restaurant, Liu Xiaochen suddenly felt the cold air outside. I couldn't help but sneeze twice, and my groggy head became clearer. Yes! Next, more calmness and sobriety are indeed needed.

Quickly walking downstairs to the dormitory, he saw Zuo Kunmin dressed in black from a distance, standing under a thick sycamore tree, looking at something in a daze. Following his gaze, I saw a couple kissing passionately in the corner.

He quickened his pace, walked to him, and shouted: "Teacher Zuo."

Zuo Kunmin turned his head when he heard the sound and responded with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, you're here."
