Little mortals' dreams come true

Li Fan knew that Han Sheng didn't like wasting time on things like arranging appointments. Now that Wansheng has just passed the crisis, and there are still many gaps to fill, he must be very busy.Therefore, Li Fan did not ask Han Sheng for his opinion, but swiped his phone among a large pile of documents, wishing to finish reading a book on dating research right away.

In the end, considering that this was the first date, Li Fan didn't dare to pull out too many tricks, and arranged the safest way - have dinner and then watch a movie.

When a couple is dating, they don’t really care what they eat or what they play, just holding hands tightly, even just staring at the sky blankly, is enough to make people feel fulfilled.But even so, Li Fan still wanted to do his best to give Han Sheng the best.

"Hello? It's me, Li Fan. I want to know if I can still reserve a seat at the Chengyue Pavilion today? You two, yes, for dinner tonight... need to make a reservation three days in advance? Linfeng, please open the back door for me. My date today is really important... I heard that you plan to expand your store recently? I happen to have a store under my banner, have you always wanted to? Let me give you a low price and open a VIP for me! Really... Really, when will my words not count? Well, just tonight, please!"

Li Fan hung up the phone and poured himself a few sips of cold coffee.The shop he promised to give to Du Linfeng was originally intended to be sold to another catering company. For this hard-won VIP, he wasted money and offended people.Li Fan took a photo on the screen of his mobile phone, and felt that his faceless smile really looked like an idle prodigal son.

It's okay, he doesn't care.

He just likes Chengyue Pavilion, likes the name, and likes that all the dishes there are arranged in pairs, which seems to have no practical meaning, which makes Li Fan feel at ease.

All the employees of Yangcheng saw their President Li's face that had been glowing red all day, and they all waited for him to announce some surprise suddenly.

However, as soon as it was time to get off work, Mr. Li hummed a little tune and almost skipped away without leaving a word.The employees suddenly realized that the good thing was Mr. Li alone, and had nothing to do with their group of laborers who were inexplicably busy recently.

During Wansheng's recent crisis period, the off-duty time was much later than usual, and Han Sheng often stayed alone in the company until late at night, so Li Fan didn't make an appointment in advance, just changed his clothes and drove to Han Sheng's company.

The lady at the front desk obviously still remembered this "big benefactor", she didn't call to report, and directly led him into the most luxurious reception room.Li Fan slumped down on the sofa in the reception room familiarly, and took the coffee handed over by the girl who had been smiling at him.

During this time, for Wansheng's affairs, Li Fan often went in and out of Wansheng.Usually it is Li Fan who directly contacts Han Sheng in advance, and the girl is only responsible for bringing him in.Therefore, seeing Li Fan today, the girl still did not report to Han Sheng, and returned to her work after serving coffee.

Li Fan took out his phone to check the time, and then sent Han Sheng a message:

I'm in Wansheng, I'll wait for you in the reception room.

Putting down the phone, Li Fan felt his stomach growl a few times.Maybe I was too excited, I didn't have any appetite at noon, I just ate something indiscriminately, and now I am finally hungry.He picked up the coffee again and took a few sips, his stomach warmed up and he felt a little sleepy.

He leaned back on the sofa softly, staring up at the ceiling.I don't know how long Han Sheng will be busy. If I knew it earlier, I should have made an appointment in advance.The phone has remained silent. I don't know if Han Sheng has seen the news. Is he still in a meeting?

Li Fan thought about it, and felt that the crystal lamp on the ceiling was getting darker and darker, so he fell asleep in a daze.If it wasn't for the sound of Secretary Han Sheng pushing the door open, Li Fan doubted that he would just sleep like this until dawn.

"Boss Li, why are you here?"

Seeing Li Fan, the secretary asked in surprise.Usually, the meeting between Han Sheng and Li Fan is arranged by her in advance, and she doesn't remember anything about today's arrangement.

"I'm here to see Han Sheng, is he still in the meeting?"

"Huh? Didn't Boss Han just leave? Didn't you make an appointment with him?"

Now Li Fan was completely awake. He glanced at his phone, it was already past seven o'clock, and Han Sheng still didn't reply.Li Fan smiled at the secretary in embarrassment, got up from the sofa and chased him out.

Li Fan, you are so stupid, why didn't you make an appointment in advance, knowing that Han Sheng probably didn't read WeChat...

While scolding himself, Li Fan called Han Sheng.It took two calls to get through, but as soon as he got through, Li Fan saw Han Sheng who was walking towards the parking lot, and stopped in his tracks.Han Sheng realized that the phone had been hung up, and was about to look down when he saw Li Fan running out from the corner of his eye.

Li Fan didn't seem to notice Han Sheng's momentary confusion and embarrassment when he suddenly recalled something.He brushed his hair together and walked over with a smile.

"Busy man, you are finally off work! Knowing that you are busy, I arranged the restaurant on my own. After dinner, we went to see movies, comedies, I remember you used to like that director. Can you see it?"

Han Sheng's expression kept changing, and in the end he only gave a dry hum, and still stood still.

Li Fan only thought that he was shy, stretched out his hand to grab Han Sheng's arm, paused halfway through the stretch, remembered that Han Sheng didn't like to touch him casually, and abruptly turned around and stroked his hair.

"Come on, my car is over there."

Saying that, Li Fan saw Han Sheng's hand holding the car keys stiff, and burst out laughing.

"Ah Cheng, you don't want us to drive two cars! You are so cute! Come on, I'll drive, are you afraid that I won't take you home?"

Han Sheng blushed, but his expression was still a little stiff, he sighed lightly and followed Li Fan's pace.

Wansheng is not far from Chengyue Pavilion, and there is a traffic jam right now.But Li Fan's mood was not affected at all, he chatted non-stop along the way.Sometimes while talking, I couldn't stop laughing.Han Sheng was sitting in the co-pilot, staring out the window silently, the air around him seemed to be a little frozen.The two sat side by side, but it seemed like they were in two worlds.

Li Fan finally realized Han Sheng's indifference in his abrupt laughter, and suspected that Han Sheng must be tired after a busy day, and he definitely wanted to take a rest quietly, and he kept arguing beside him like a firecracker, Who wouldn't be angry!Li Fan then forced himself to shut up and opened the car CD.

The soft piano sound slowly flowed out, gradually filling the entire space, finally ending the deadlock between the two people and the two worlds.When stopping in front of a red light, Han Sheng said hoarsely:

"Sorry, I forgot today..."

"It's okay, I didn't wait long, I'll be here soon, you must be hungry, let me tell you, Chengyue Pavilion is really pretty..."

Li Fan quickly interrupted Han Sheng's words, causing Han Sheng to say "forgot about the date" stuck in his throat, and finally turned into a frown on his forehead.Li Fan turned the topic abruptly, but answered it very smoothly, and began to speak without panting again.As a result, Han Sheng could no longer interrupt, and turned his head to stare out the window silently.

Taking advantage of the green light, Li Fan sighed silently when he started the car.Some things, if you don't say it, you can pretend you don't know it.Although everyone knows it well, as long as there is still that thin layer of paper, there is still room for self-deception.

Besides, after so many years of waiting, just this moment is not enough to get between the teeth.

The decoration of Chengyue Pavilion is in an ancient style, with light gauze curtains leaning lightly between the wooden panes, and the warm and fragrant wind passing through the hall, like a dream.

The waiter in cotton and linen gown led Li Fan and Han Sheng into a private room.Before entering the door, Li Fan glanced at the wooden sign hanging at the door, on which the name of the box was printed in elegant lower letters - Tian Huang Di Lao.Li Fan couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, Chengyue Pavilion did not disappoint him.

The interior of the box is very simple, except for the carved wooden windows that match the overall style of Chengyue Pavilion, there are almost no extra decorations, even the curtains are replaced with plain colors, only a small bunch of dry reeds inserted in a white porcelain vase on the dining table.

Han Sheng is wearing a pure black suit today, which stands out in the plain space.For a moment, Li Fan looked at Han Sheng who was sitting across from him, and felt that the whole world was quiet, as if he could really stay still like this until the end of time.

"Just look at it, I can do it."

Han Sheng flipped through the menu hastily, closed it and pushed it to Li Fan.Li Fan withdrew his gaze as if awakened, took the menu and flipped through it.

The dishes of Chengyue Pavilion are launched in the form of set meals, and you can also choose a la carte.Li Fan took a look at the dishes in the set menu, and found that the names of the dishes are all in a set, and they have different meanings when linked together.Originally, he had taken a fancy to the different dishes in the two set meals, but Li Fan suddenly felt that he didn't want to take apart these meanings.

"Then can I choose a set meal?"

"You can do it."

Li Fan could see that Han Sheng really had an attitude of being able to do anything, and he wasn't being polite to him, so he didn't say which set meal he chose, but just lightly ticked the back of "White first contract".

The dishes came out quickly, and although they were all light dishes, the aroma was very strong.Li Fan was already hungry, but as soon as the tantalizing scent entered his nose, his stomach immediately growled.

"Ah Cheng, try this, it's amazing! Well... this one is also good, I'll get you one too!"

Li Fan stuffed it into his mouth, and kept piling it up in front of Han Sheng, making the dining table where there were only two people, one of whom didn't speak much, arouse excitement.

Li Fan's enthusiasm is sometimes quite dull. When he was about to put a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus rice cake to Han Sheng, he finally realized that Han Sheng's small plate had piled up like a hill, the kind that a piece of rice cake might cause a landslide.He retracted the chopsticks with some embarrassment.

"What's the matter, Ah Cheng, don't you like these dishes? Is it too bland? I remember you used to eat bland..."

"No, it's fine."

Han Sheng replied lightly, the expression on his face did not change, he just picked up a piece of dish that he didn't know what it was, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.

Li Fan looked at Han Sheng fiddling with the chopsticks of the dishes, and asked worriedly:

"Are you too busy recently to lose your appetite, do you want me to accompany you to see a doctor?"

The gently sliding chopsticks stopped, and after a pause for a few seconds, Han Sheng said awkwardly:

"Sorry, I actually ate it myself because I forgot..."

"Ah, I don't worry if it's okay hahaha, if you can't eat it, don't eat it, let's come again next time."

Li Fan quickly interrupted Han Sheng again, but complained softly in his heart that the straight man opposite him couldn't even tell a lie, so he could at least make up a reason to prevaricate, telling the truth from time to time.

"Then you have to watch me eat this time~"

Li Fan smiled mischievously at Han Sheng, lowered his head and gnawed on the piece of rice cake just now.After taking a few bites, I felt that I might have eaten too fast just now, and now I was full as soon as I stopped.Just now I thought the rice cake with just the right amount of sweetness was a bit hard to swallow.

However, in order to delay the time, Li Fan still randomly stuffed a lot of things into his stomach.Because the movie didn't start for a while, he felt a bit empty after eating, and didn't know what to say.Han Sheng is also a quiet person, so it would be embarrassing to go early and wait.

Due to Li Fan's intentional delay and the traffic jam on the road for a short while, when he arrived at the cinema, there were just ten minutes before the screening.Li Fan knew that Han Sheng didn't like queuing up, so he asked Han Sheng to sit on the bench at the door and wait, then he jumped over to get the tickets, and when he came back, he brought two glasses of Coke.

"I just ate, so I didn't buy popcorn, let's go in."

Although the movie Li Fan chose was a comedy theme, it was more of a niche literary film, and fewer people would watch it.Recently, a very popular sci-fi masterpiece is being released, and everyone is very popular, and even fewer people pay attention to this movie.

After Li Fan and Han Sheng entered the screening room, they found that there were only a few scattered people sitting inside, looking deserted.In fact, Li Fan doesn't really understand this kind of movie, but he knows that Han Sheng likes it, and he also knows that Han Sheng likes this kind of quiet atmosphere.Sure enough, with the help of the faint light in the aisle, Li Fan saw that Han Sheng's frown, which had been frowning ever since he entered the cinema, relaxed a little.

Perhaps it was because there were too few people, and the cinema didn't seem to pay much attention to the situation in this screening hall, and the lights in the aisle were obviously too dim.Li Fan accidentally tripped over the steps, slipped and lost his balance, and subconsciously helped him to the side.The moment he touched Han Sheng's suit jacket, Li Fan obviously felt Han Sheng's instant resistance, his back felt cold, and he wanted to withdraw his hand as if he had been scalded, but he couldn't stand firmly on his feet, and the whole person rushed towards him.

At the moment when it fell over, Li Fan thought, it's over, it's over, Han Sheng doesn't like to touch people, so he must avoid it, now he will fall into the mud...

Just as Li Fan was trying to figure out how to keep the Coke in his hand and land in a more handsome posture, he fell firmly into an embrace——Han Sheng even reached out to support him.

Han Sheng was very tall, Li Fan's head happened to hit his chest.The shirt was a little cool, but the chest under the shirt was hot and powerful.Li Fan was dazed for a moment, raised his head in a daze, and saw Han Sheng's brow trembling slightly, as if he would frown again at any moment.He suddenly reacted, jumped out of Han Sheng's arms, and blushed all the way to his ears.

This was the first time that Han Sheng didn't resist his touch. Until he successfully found a seat and sat down, Li Fan's ears kept ringing with Han Sheng's powerful heartbeat.

Fortunately, the light was dim enough, no one could notice the redness on Li Fan's face, which seeped into his eyes little by little.
