Wen Qing came to pick him up, of course he was not rushing to see Shu Xin.But there was indeed one dinner party, and the people who had made an appointment last month - Ai Changle's best friend Xue Zhen, and his recently dated boyfriend Shi Banqiu.

The name Shi Banqiu sounds nice. Although every character is very common and none of them are uncommon, it still has an indescribable charm.Just listening to the name, I really want to make up an image of wearing a long gown and sitting by the window drinking tea-this is Ai Changle's original words.

But at this moment, the real body of this image, Shi Banqiu himself, stood in front of the full-length mirror like a stone, and his palms were still sweating.

"Brother Zhen, I'm a little nervous."

After changing clothes and coming out, he looked at the mirror for a long time, but still felt that it was not formal enough.

Xue Zhen is a little better than him. When he was a make-up artist, he had dealt with several artists, so he was a little bit prepared.

Of course, only a little better.

The artists he dealt with were all outside the third tier, and they were not at the same level as Wen Qing.

"I'm also nervous. But it's okay, we don't think of him as a big star, we simply treat him as Lele's boyfriend. Let's meet each other, it's all right." He helped Shi Banqiu to press down the collar that turned up.

"What do Wen Qing usually like to talk about? I'm not in the same circle with him, and, besides, I haven't met your friend before. Will it be embarrassing when there is nothing to talk about at the dinner table?"

Shi Banqiu wondered if he should find an excuse to write a thesis and sneak back to school temporarily.

Xue Zhen took the trouble to give him a boost: "It's okay, they are all profound people, and they like to chat with educated people. Isn't your mother a Chinese teacher? You are also quite educated. Lele likes to talk to people from a scholarly family. People make friends and have something to talk about.”

They changed their clothes in the toilet of the mall directly after get off work. Although Shi Banqiu took advantage of the lack of people in the store at noon to get a haircut and looked refreshed, he was still apprehensive.

Xue Zhen looked around and quickly pecked at the corner of his mouth.

chirp.

"Is it better now?"

Shi Banqiu was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head happily, the tall man of about 1.8 meters blushed.

"Well, let's go."

The place was decided by Wen Qing, who chose Zhaoxuan, a Chinese restaurant on the top floor of Atayal Building.Among public buildings, Atayal Building is second only to Xingyue Tower in City A, with a height of more than [-] meters.And the location is near the river, the view at night is especially good.

"Hi, this way."

To show sincerity, Ai Changle went downstairs to pick him up in person.Wen Qing originally wanted to be with him, but he was afraid that this person would be recognized, so he drove him back to order food.

"Ah Zhen, here it is!" He waved his hand on the steps, almost jumping onto the back of the stone lion.

"Lele!" Xue Zhen pulled Shi Banqiu over, first gave a hug to a friend who hadn't seen him for a few months, and then began to introduce, "This is Banqiu, and he is still in college, but he has done well in starting a business." Very good, the candy I sent you before is from his shop."

Ai Changle took a brief look at him. He was tall, with a short cut, and looked quite energetic, just like in the photo.Although he was a bit shy and not sociable, he looked quite honest, unlike the one who cheated before, his face was naturally greasy.

"This is Ai Changle. Just call him Lele like me. He's an actor, you know."

Ai Changle took the initiative to reach out to shake hands, "Hi, Ah Zhen is right, you can just call me Lele, you're welcome."

Shi Banqiu also stretched out his hand, "Hello, Lele. It's our first time meeting. It's a pleasure to meet you. You can call me Xiaoshi."

It's a pleasure to meet you, well, it's really a bit of a literati's emphasis——Ai Changle thought to himself.

As it focuses on special Chinese food, the decoration of Zhaoxuan is all in the style of ancient Chinese style.The wall is the background of the ink painting, and the vases on the high stand next to it are also matched with it.Plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum, each corner is divided into a hall. The table is the popular Wuzi Dengke table during the Republic of China, and the pattern of the wooden chairs also matches the theme of the small hall.

Wen Qing made an appointment two weeks in advance to a private room, and the waiter made a pot of Pu'er, saying that it was a free gift from the manager, so that he didn't have to rush to order.

After receiving someone, Ai Changle sent him a message, and he poured four glasses and put them next to their respective bowls and chopsticks.

The moment the door was pushed open, the aroma of tea wafted into the nostrils.

"Brother Qing, the guests have arrived, are the dishes ready?"

Wen Qing and Xue Zhen did not know each other, and Ai Changle was a well-deserved middleman, so he spoke more actively than usual.

Wen Qing got up, and smiled at Xue Zhen and the two, "I don't know your tastes, I just checked first, and I haven't placed an order yet."

While speaking, a group of people also came over, Wen Qing took a step forward, and stretched out his hand to Xue Zhen:

"Mr. Xue, hello."

Xue Zhen shook hands with him, "Hello, hello."

"I heard Taobao mention it many times, saying that you are his best friend and an expert in makeup. Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. It's a pleasure to meet you."

As soon as the word "fortunate meeting" came out, Shi Banqiu next to him immediately rang the alarm bell - I said my opening remarks, what shall I say later!

Xue Zhen didn't expect that Wen Qing would go out of his way to learn about his major. Since he has a heart for him, it proves that he has a heart for Ai Changle.So I silently ticked Wen Qing in my heart, halfway through:

"Actually, I'm not an expert anymore, I just know some tricks. I will ask you more about this in the future."

Wen Qing curled her lips: "Don't be so polite, I don't have much research on makeup. But if you need it, I can introduce some friends to you."

"Okay, thank you."

After exchanging greetings with Xue Zhen, he turned to extend his hand to Shi Banqiu: "Mr. Shi, hello."

Shi Banqiu was more nervous than the first time he saw the landlord renting a storefront, so he quickly answered without waiting for Wen Qing to say:

"Hello, don't, don't call me 'Mr. Shi', you should still call me Xiaoshi just like Lele."

To show politeness, he still stretched out his hand timidly, shaking Wen Qing's hand constantly.

Wen Qing noticed that his palms were sweaty, she lowered her eyes to look at the clasped hands, and nodded tolerantly:

"Okay, Xiaoshi. I was lucky enough to taste the candy you sent to the crew before, and it was delicious. It's really amazing to be able to start a business while still studying, and to do so well."

Ai Changle on the side was a little jealous—this person, how could he always compliment others in the same way, and when he praised him, he said "you eat really delicious"? !

After being praised, Shi Banqiu finally became less nervous, pursing his lips shyly:

"Fortunately, Brother Zhen helped me a lot, otherwise I still can't pay the rent now."

She still didn't let go of Wen Qing's hand, so Wen Qing found another topic: "By the way, your name sounds nice, does it have any meaning?"

Shi Banqiu nodded honestly, "Well, I was born on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival. But my mother thought it was too common to be called Shi Zhongqiu, so I changed it to Banqiu."

The handshake is still not loose.

Ai Changle, the middleman, stood up decisively to make a rescue, and first sighed the name:

"Wow, that's what it means. I guessed that you should be related to autumn, but I didn't expect you were born on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival!"

Xue Zhen also hummed cooperatively. When meeting for the first time, one or two people are always needed to activate the atmosphere:

"Haha, yes. I was also surprised when he first told me."

Ai Changle then said: "Then let's sit down first, brother Qing, you just looked at the menu, what's delicious?"

Only then did Shi Banqiu notice that he had been holding Wen Qing's hand for a long time, so he quickly let go, and looked at Xue Zhen as if he had done something wrong.Seeing Xue Zhen's gentle eyes, without any hint of anger, he was relieved.

Wen Qing knew that Ai Changle was helping him resolve the embarrassment, so she smiled at him tacitly, and patted him on the waist.After all sat down, he opened the menu and put it in front of Xue Zhen and the two of them:

"I asked the waiter, in addition to the two classic dishes, they have launched a new Zuiwo Lan Geng this week. Peach blossom wine is added to the original appetizing Lan Geng. It is said to taste good."

Shi Banqiu likes to try some new flavors, so he quickly touched Xue Zhen's knee under the table.

Xue Zhen understood, "I think it should be very good, how about ordering one? Actually, Banqiu and I are not very picky in terms of food, Mr. Wen, you don't have to think about us, just order casually."

In a meeting of their nature, in addition to making the other party feel enough respect, it is also very important-don't be too particular.

Therefore, Xue Zhen accepted Zuiwo Langeng's suggestion, and at the same time expressed his attitude - they did not choose.

This made things easier for Wen Qing, and quickly selected a few classic dishes that he was optimistic about beforehand, a newly confirmed Zui Wo Lan Geng, and the "Sword Finger Sangma" that Ai Changle had been thinking about.The waiter quickly came to confirm the menu, and immediately served a dim sum that goes with these dishes.

Of course, this is still a special gift from the manager.

Shi Banqiu was so happy that he went out to eat with big stars, and he had free snacks!

The first meal between the four of them was a bit deserted at the beginning, and the content of the chat was more formal, a bit like meeting parents, it was nothing more than work and Wen Qing's works that I had seen.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. With Ai Changle's continuous efforts and Wen Qing's tacit cooperation, the atmosphere among the four finally found the source of living water. With water, it will naturally come to fruition.

Later they talked about how Shi Banqiu used to wash his face in front of Xue Zhen with a bag of sugar a day, and how Ai Changle was so desperate to save face that he was covered in bruises after eating two catties of crayfish.

Wen Qing smoothed things over for Ai Changle, saying that he was also to blame at the time and didn't ask anything.Xue Zhen immediately showed his bad friend physique, and said with a smile: "Even if you ask, he can't resist eating."

The four of them can talk a lot together, and Xue Zhen found out that, just like what Ai Changle said, Wen Qing really doesn't have any celebrity airs in private.Not only is he easy-going, but he also keeps the teapot at hand and refills when he sees who finishes drinking.At first Shi Banqiu was flattered, but later he got used to it.He even talked quickly for a while, and called "Brother Qing" after Ai Changle.

After calling out, he immediately pursed his lips, and Wen Qing signaled him not to be nervous:

"It's okay, that's what everyone in the crew calls it. I'm very happy that you didn't treat me as an outsider."

Ai Changle, who was eating crazily while the three of them were chatting, gave him a thumbs up in his heart—as expected of his brother Qing, his reaction was quick.

After the meal, Wen Qing took out a gift that was almost forgotten - La Brea's makeup brushes.

Although it was packed in a paper bag, Xue Zhen caught a glimpse of the logo on the bag at a glance, and things of this size and thickness only had cosmetic brushes in their house.

And for Shi Banqiu, it is a global limited edition figure.This is what Ai Changle accidentally mentioned when chatting with Xue Zhen once. When Shi Banqiu picked up Xue Zhen's mobile phone, he must insist on returning it to himself instead of handing it over to the lost and found office of the mall. The real phone case is a silhouette of that character.

Giving gifts is about matching what one likes, and in terms of content, Wen Qing and Ai Changle are very attentive.

Xue Zhen put a huge tick in his heart—this boyfriend passed the test, completely passed the test!
