On the day of the blind date, CEO Qianyi pulled me to get the certificate.

"Let's go out to eat at noon. We won't order takeout." Wen Yan put on his work apron and got ready to work.

"Eat Erfangcheng's spicy hotpot?"

Lin Qian's eyes instantly lit up when she thought about eating it. Since she hadn't tried this newly opened spicy hotpot before, she might give it a try.

"Well, yes."

Because it was a working day, there were not many customers in the store, but the two of them were not idle.

The current store model is to operate a ceramics experience store offline and sell handmade jewelry online.

On weekdays, she also designs jewelry styles, handles online returns and exchanges, etc.

During lunch time, Lin Qian drove Wen Yan to Erfang City in a small pink electric donkey.

Lin Qian lives very close to the pottery shop, and it only takes fifteen minutes by bike.

Therefore, she usually rides a small electric donkey to and from get off work, which is environmentally friendly and avoids traffic jams.

Because Wen Yan lived in the suburbs before, he mostly took the subway, which was an hour and a half away.

Now that she has changed her place to live, she may consider buying a small electric donkey.

In this case, it will only take ten minutes to ride to and from get off work in the future, which is very convenient.

Ten minutes later, Lin Qian rode a small electric donkey and stopped at the entrance of the mall.

After the two got out of the car, they went straight to the spicy hot pot restaurant on the fifth floor.

When it comes to eating, the two have a tacit understanding.

"Wow, it smells so good. Could it be the smell of the hot pot base coming from the hot pot restaurant?"

As soon as Lin Qian and Wen Yan stepped out of the escalator, they smelled the rich and fragrant smell of hot pot from a distance.

"Come on, we came here early after get off work. There shouldn't be anyone queuing up right now."

Although this spicy hotpot restaurant has just opened, it has a lot of customers and there is always a long queue for every meal.

The two of them walked faster and faster, fearing that they would have to wait for a table.

"Hello, how many are there?" the female clerk standing at the door asked politely.

"Thank you, both of you." Lin Qian responded.

"Okay, please follow me inside."

Then, the two followed the female clerk to an empty seat in the corner inside.

Wen Yan paid attention to his surroundings. Everyone was sitting around him, leaving only the table in front of him empty.

Fortunately, this position is reserved for them.

"Mao tripe, yellow throat, pig brain flakes, duck intestines, shrimp slippery, hand-cut mutton, hand-cut beef..."

Lin Qian took a pencil and marked each of their favorite dishes.

Wen Yan was washing cups and dishes.

She didn't need to click, just let Lin Qian check the boxes.

As the food partner who knows her best, she doesn't have to worry about ordering food at all.

"Okay, I've finished choosing. Spicy butter soup base, plus a splash of sour plum juice."

The two looked at each other.

Wen Yan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Yes, you deserve to understand me."

"No, let's not see who it is."

Then, Lin Qian raised her hand to call the clerk to place an order.

As soon as I took a sip of tea, the hot pot soup base and all the ingredients were served.

Ten minutes later, the spicy butter soup base finally boiled.

"Eat it, my mouth is watering."

Lin Qian swallowed, picked up the chopsticks, picked up the tripe and poured it into the pot.

"one two three four five six seven."

According to what he said, Lin Qian dipped the cooked tripe into the seasoning and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hmm~ It's delicious. I'm very satisfied." Lin Qian nodded with satisfaction and gave a thumbs up, "Yanyan, eat quickly."

"it is good."

Wen Yan had just poured two glasses of sour plum juice and was about to start eating with his chopsticks.

She rinsed a chopstick of duck intestines, which was delicious and crispy.

However, as enjoyable as it is at the front, it is so spicy at the back.

Soon, their red lips became more and more swollen, and there was a little sweat on their foreheads.

"Bah ha, ha ha, it's so spicy, but it's also so satisfying."

Lin Qian finished a glass of sour plum juice and continued to cook meat.

"Haha, this is so weird, I can't stand it anymore."

Wen Yan took out a tissue and wiped the hot sweat on his forehead.

When she couldn't do it anymore, she stopped using her chopsticks to rest for a while.

At this time, Gu Chuanze's call came in. Wen Yan didn't think too much and picked it up directly, "Hey, hello?"

Gu Chuanze on the other end heard the strange sounds and the sound of Wen Yan wiping his nose, and frowned, "Are you crying?"

"No, Baha. My friends and I were eating spicy hot pot outside and we were just bitten by the spicy food. What's wrong?"

"Eat less, it's not good for your stomach. I'm going on a business trip to country M in the afternoon for a week."

Regarding the business trip, Gu Chuanze thought it was necessary to tell Wen Yan. He was not sure whether Wen Yan would ask when he came home at night and saw that he was not around.

"Oh, then please pay attention to safety outside. If there is nothing else, I will hang up first."

The sight of Lin Qian eating hot pot aroused her appetite again. The most important thing now was to cook.

"Gone."

"Then I'll go on to eat, bye."

After Gu Chuanze finished speaking, Wen Yan hung up the phone directly.

Qingqing's newly married wife is a foodie, and hotpot is more important than him.

He shook his head in frustration, but there was nothing he could do.

After Wen Yan put down his phone, he picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.

Lin Qian ordered a table full of dishes, and by the end of the meal, both of them had two dishes left, one of shrimp paste and one of boneless duck feet.

Thinking she was done with it, Lin Qian poured both dishes into the pot and started cooking.

"Burp~ I'm so full." Wen Yan leaned on the back of the chair, holding his belly.

"Me too."

“But are there still some uneaten dishes inside?”

"Well, I just put down the last remaining shrimp slippers and duck feet."

Wen Yan picked up the colander and fished it into the pot. He raised his eyes and met Lin Qian's eyes.

The inexplicable battle between the two began again.

"You finish what you ordered."

"You can finish what you like."

"Rock, paper, scissors, whoever loses gets to eat."

"It's a word."

Wen Yan and Lin Qian started a game of rock, paper, scissors.

In the first game, Lin Qian lost, and Wen Yan smiled and gave her a piece of duck paw.

In the second game, Wen Yan lost, and Lin Qian smiled and gave her a piece of shrimp slipper.

......

After ten rounds, the two of them were equally divided, which was equivalent to sharing the remaining ingredients in the pot equally between them.

"Let's just say, don't waste food."

After Wen Yan finished speaking, he picked up the cold vegetables in the bowl with his chopsticks and ate them in large gulps.

The same goes for Lin Qian.

Afterwards, Wen Yan went to the bathroom and paid at the cashier when he came back.

"gone."

"Yeah, hold me up."

"Can you please hold your belly in a little bit? It really looks like a pregnant woman." Wen Yan teased with a smile, not forgetting to reach out to help her stand up.

"I can't hold it in anymore. I'm holding on. I won't order so much next time."

Lin Qian said firmly.

But Wen Yan understood that this was just a verbal conversation. The next time they ate, they would still order with great interest. In the end, if they couldn't finish the meal, they would still use guessing to decide who would eat.

For this reason, they became very compatible companion sisters.

"Would you like to go shopping in the clothes store upstairs? I want to choose two sets of pajamas." Wen Yan asked.

"Huh? Didn't you just buy two black nightgowns last week? What? Do you want to change them into festive red ones? Yes, weddings are different."

Lin Qian liked to tease Wen Yan very much, and Wen Yan was used to it.

"Don't think about it. It's just because most of my pajamas are nightgowns. I want to buy two sets of more conservative pajamas and pajamas."

"Although Gu Chuanze and I live together now, we are still not very familiar with each other. It's better to behave ourselves at home and leave a good impression."

Wen Yan admitted that Gu Chuanze's beauty attracted her, but she was not willing to pounce on him so quickly.

Besides, men may not necessarily be interested in themselves.

Although Lin Qian often boasted that her conditions were pretty good, and the opposite sex often asked her for WeChat, Wen Yan always felt that Gu Chuanze was different from others.

There is a kind of indifference that is distant from others, but there are also considerate details.

It can only be said that Wen Yan really doesn't have much confidence in the matter of falling in love over time.

As for their marriage, Wen Yan is not sure how far it can go.
