After mid-April, the temperature in City C began to rise steadily. By the end of April, the summer heat could already be faintly felt.

It was another rare day off for Hou Chaoqing, and Fang Xia happened to be free, so the two made an appointment at noon to have dinner at a newly opened restaurant in the city center.This is a Chinese restaurant, there is nothing unconventional, but their dishes have been praised on the Internet, and Hou Chaoqing has been praised.So, their dinner party was set at this restaurant.

The restaurant was full of diners, Fang Xia and Hou Chaoqing came late, so they had to choose a seat near the aisle.Fortunately, it was a four-seater, Fang Xia didn't have to worry about Fu Jin having no place to sit, and Hou Chaoqing didn't have to worry about being crowded, both of them were quite satisfied.

The two put the menu in the center of the table, flipping through it while ticking off.Hou Chaoqing picked up a bunch of meat dishes, and Fang Xia hesitated to choose a bunch of vegetarian dishes.

"Why do you order a bunch of vegetables and radishes?" Hou Chaoqing looked up at Fang Xia suspiciously.He and Fang Xia have always been in harmony when it comes to eating. They are both meat lovers. When they eat together, they always order one or two vegetarian dishes intentionally, and rarely order more than two dishes.

"Are you losing weight? I haven't lost weight yet! Why are you losing weight? Do you have excess fat on your body for you to lose?" Hou Chaoqing muttered, looking at Fang Xia who was facing him, to make sure that he didn't have any fat that needed to be lost. .

"I suddenly want to be a vegetarian, okay?" Fang Xia said, unconsciously glanced at Fu Jin beside her from the corner of her eyes.

To be honest, he doesn't like to be vegetarian at all, and it's not for the sake of asceticism.Ever since he dreamed about Fu Jin, he felt a little terrified before going to bed every day, fearing that he would cheat on Fu Jin again in his dream.Although Fu Jin didn't get angry with him that time, Fang Xia was worried that his friendship with Fu Jin would be lost when it happened again.

Therefore, during this period of time, Fang Xia began to insist on being a vegetarian.Although, I'm not sure if being a vegetarian can really achieve asceticism, but at least in this way, the chance of him dreaming of chicken legs after falling asleep will be higher than the chance of dreaming of Fu Jin, so it's a curve to save the country.

"What's so delicious about vegetarian dishes? Don't be overwhelmed!" Hou Chaoqing persuaded earnestly, "How delicious the meat is! There is no future for people who give up eating meat."

Fang Xia: "..." This guy started performing again.

Just when Hou Chaoqing was earnestly trying to make Fang Xia lose his way and return to the Kingdom of Vegetables, Fu Jin turned his eyes sideways, turned his gaze around Fang Xia, and then frowned slightly——Fang Xia looked thinner than before a little.

[Fang Xia. ] Fu Jin called out.

Fang Xia looked at him slightly sideways.

[menu. ]

By the way, Fu Jin hasn't been asked to order yet.Fang Xia quickly reached out and dragged the menu spread out in the middle of the table to Fu Jin's side.

Fu Jin looked down at the menu, Fang Xia secretly stared at Fu Jin's profile.When eating out, he would let Fu Jin read the menu, but it was the first time that the other party asked to order.

Could it be... Fu Jin is particularly fond of this restaurant today?

Here Fang Xia was thinking about the reason why Fu Jin offered to order food, while Fu Jin had already finished ordering over there.

Fang Xia helped to tick off the three dishes that Fu Jin had ordered, and found that the grilled wings, pork ribs, and sweet and sour pork were all his favorites, but they were not Fu Jin's favorite dishes.

"You're finally thinking about it!" Seeing that Fang Xia had selected three meaty dishes, Hou Chaoqing, who was opposite, was relieved, "However, even if we both have big appetites, this is a bit too much, right? Take out two vegetarian dishes. .”

Indeed, as Hou Chaoqing said, they ordered a bit too much.Fang Xia removed the two meat dishes that Hou Chao had counted, but the other party refused to do anything, and Fu Jin couldn't move what he ordered, so he had to remove two of his own vegetarian dishes in the end.As a result, meat dishes won an overwhelming victory, basically no different from before.

When Fang Xia eats, he always leaves a portion for Fu Jin. In private, Fang Xia will not eat the dishes that are put in Fu Jin's bowl, but it is different outside. In order not to make others look weird, he will Eat part of the vegetables in Fu Jin's bowl.Although it still looks a little strange, but at most, I feel that he is greedy and picks up too much and can't finish it in the end, instead of leaving food for someone who can't see, which is creepy.

Usually, Fu Jin would not take the initiative to ask Fang Xia to pick up vegetables, and Fang Xia usually picks them up for him.But today, after taking the initiative to order food, Fang Xia found that Fu Jin took the initiative to ask him to pick up food again.And most of those dishes ended up in Fang Xia's stomach.

Fang Xia went from reserved and restrained at the beginning to elated later on, and only after she had almost finished eating did she remember her plan to be a vegetarian to maintain abstinence, but it was too late.

So, Fang Xia, who had been vegetarian for a few days, was not only forced to eat meat today, but also had a greasy face.

"Fang Xia, have you heard? Huang Yuanyuan's painting is said to have been sold." Satisfied with food and drink, Hou Chaoqing rubbed his stomach and began to spread gossip, "It's the first time a newcomer's painting entered the gallery, and it was sold so quickly. Not many people go out. Didn’t our school arrange a group of people to participate in an art exchange meeting abroad in September? It is said that the school intends to put her in.”

Fang Xia frowned, this Huang Yuanyuan was really clever, Wei Shuhua didn't win it over, turned around and didn't know who he got, so he sold the painting so quickly and made his reputation rise.

"Zhou Lu is really pitiful. Her painting was ruined by Huang Yuanyuan before. Even if Huang Yuanyuan apologized, some people still complained about her. Now that Huang Yuanyuan came together like that, no one said that she was inferior to others and deliberately used tricks, and those people changed their words accordingly. It’s about strength.” Hou Chaoqing sighed, “Sure enough, compared to the smooth sailing of a wealthy family, everyone still prefers the story of a grassroots counterattack.”

"Just one painting was sold, which is not considered a counterattack." Fang Xia got up to check out.

Some people probably can't mention it.Hou Chaoqing picked up Huang Yuanyuan in the dining room, but Fang Xia followed Hou Chaoqing back to school, and bumped into Huang Yuanyuan head-on before entering the school gate.

Fang Xia pulled Hou Chaoqing and turned around to avoid it, but the other party hurriedly said goodbye to her friend and quickly chased after her.

"Fang Xia!" Huang Yuanyuan ran to Fang Xia and blocked his way.

"What!" Fang Xia said angrily.

"Even if you keep getting in the way, my painting has sold." Huang Yuanyuan straightened her short hair around her ears and said proudly with her head up.

"None of my business?" Fang Xia rolled her eyes, too lazy to talk to her, "Go away, good dogs don't get in the way."

"Who do you say is a dog? I think you are the dog!" Huang Yuanyuan sneered, "You look like a dog, you circle around Wei Shuhua all day, and what do you get? Isn't it just working as a dog in his dilapidated studio?" a teacher."

Fu Jin's eyes froze for a moment, and he moved his fingers hanging by his side. Before he could do anything in the future, he saw a chubby figure move first.

"Hey, hey, that's too much!" Hou Chaoqing couldn't take it anymore, took a step forward, and stared at Huang Yuanyuan hard with his eyes that were a little squeezed by the fat on his face, "Everyone has his own ambition, and he should be a studio teacher." What's wrong?"

"Fat pig, go away!" Huang Yuanyuan squinted at Hou Chaoqing.

"What did you say?" Fang Xia's face darkened suddenly, the corners of his eyes pulled down, and he stared at Huang Yuanyuan gloomyly, "Say it again."

Fang Xia was really angry, saying that he could not take it seriously, but when it came to his friends, he would take it seriously and settle the matter.

"Apologize." Fang Xia put his hands in his trouser pockets and stepped forward.

Huang Yuanyuan couldn't help taking a half step back, Fang Xia in front of her just had a gloomy face, but she felt that Fang Xia like this was more terrifying than the hideous look on Gexia Mountain.

Huang Yuanyuan's eyes fluttered around in a panic, and after seeing the scene of people coming and going at the school gate, she immediately felt at ease.

"What? You want to hit me again?" With so many people around, she didn't believe that Fang Xia dared to do it.

Fang Xia narrowed his eyes, took his hands out of his trouser pockets, and was about to walk forward, but Hou Chaoqing hugged his arms violently, "Wait, wait! Fang Xia, calm down, don't be fussy like this woman. She She's so cheap, someone will clean her up sooner or later, why dirty our hands."

"Who are you calling cheap?" Huang Yuanyuan raised her voice angrily.

Hou Chaoqing ignored her, and whispered in Fang Xia's ear, "Think about your graduation certificate! There's no need to have your graduation certificate withheld for this woman! Calm down, buddy!"

Fang Xia pursed her lips tightly, and twitched her arms, but couldn't get them out of Hou Chaoqing's fat hands, and simply dragged him forward.

"Fuck! Fang Xia, what the hell is your strength? I weigh more than 200 catties as a fat monkey! Wait a minute, stop! Oh, my mother, I shouldn't let you eat meat at noon, and let you eat so much meat! Brute force..."

"Master Fang Xia." Just as Hou Chaoqing was being dragged forward by Fang Xia, crying and howling, a deep male voice made Fang Xia stop.

Fang Xia turned around and saw a middle-aged man with a square face standing behind him.

"Who are you?" Fang Xia frowned.

"He's my driver." Another man a little further away answered Fang Xia's question.

Fang Xia followed the sound and saw a meticulously groomed man in a black suit walking towards Fang Xia with strides through the crowd of onlookers at the school gate.After approaching, the other party's face with a lukewarm expression made Fang Xia quickly remember who this person was.Geng Chongmin, the younger brother of the head of the Geng family, is also the leader of the collateral branch of the Geng family, and the person in charge of the operation of the Geng family company.In terms of blood relatives, Fang Xia should call him second cousin.

"What are you doing here?" Fang Xia frowned even tighter. Before the one who hated Huang Yuanyuan could be dealt with, another hated Geng family ran out.

"You should learn to be polite to your elders." Geng Chongmin said.

Fang Xia withdrew his arm from the dazed Hou Chaoqing's hand, plucked his ear, and turned to face Geng Chongmin, "Didn't you listen to Geng Wenqiu? I left Geng's house, and you have nothing to do with me from now on."

"I just heard about this two days ago, so I came to see you." Geng Zhongmin looked at Fang Xia, "Go to the car, let's talk."

"No." Fang Xia refused.

"Then let's stand here and talk."

Fang Xia looked around and saw a large group of people standing near or far away, he felt like a monkey.

"...Go to the car."

Fang Xia followed Geng Chongmin and his driver towards the parked car at the school gate.Huang Yuanyuan looked at Fang Xia's back as he walked away, but her blood faded.

If she remembers correctly, the man in the black suit just now should be Geng Chongmin, a well-known figure in the business world, from the famous Geng family.The Geng family—that was a behemoth that Wei Shuhua's wealthy families could not compare to.

What was Geng Chongmin's driver called Fang Xia just now?Master Fang Xia?Fang Xia is the young master of the Geng family? !This is impossible... Huang Yuanyuan wanted to deny it, but she did hear the driver call that way just now, and Geng Chongmin claimed to be Fang Xia and the elder.

Wait, wait... Maybe that man is not Geng Chongmin, he just looks like him.

"That man just now...wasn't Geng Zhongmin?" If the Geng family wanted to do something to her, she would have no room to struggle. Huang Yuanyuan was already in a panic, she turned to Hou Chaoqing who was at the side in a daze.

"That's Geng Chongmin! Knowing this name, you should have seen his face somewhere. Or do you have bad eyesight, can't you recognize people? If you are a student of painting, you can't have good eyesight."

Hou Chaoqing forcibly recovered from the shock that Fang Xia was the young master of the Geng family, pretended to finish the mocking with a calm face, and pretended to be calm and swayed towards the dormitory building.If you look closely, you can see that his steps are actually still fluttering.

Hou Chaoqing left on his own, while the onlookers stayed where they were, discussing with each other enthusiastically, shattering all of Huang Yuanyuan's chances of luck and making her feel cold from head to toe.
