"Is there something very troublesome? Did I ask you out for dinner at noon today and delayed your work?"
As Ye Su drove the car, he turned to look at the co-pilot and found that Li Mengmeng's expression seemed a little nervous, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Ah? No, no, just to explain, I'm not the foreman, they want to ask me some questions about scheduling. It's daytime, how can there be anything to do. Even if I'm busy, I have to wait until night."
Li Mengmeng hurriedly explained.
Looking at Li Mengmeng's reaction, Ye Su knew that Li Mengmeng was not telling the truth, but Ye Su didn't ask any more questions and just drove the Land Rover towards the city center.
Although there are places to eat near Ocean University, they are basically of a lower grade. Since he wanted to express his gratitude to Li Mengmeng, Ye Su naturally had to be more sincere.
After confirming that Ye Su had no intention of continuing to ask questions and seemed to believe his explanation, Li Mengmeng relaxed slightly. At the same time, she secretly made a decision in her heart. She must teach those guys a lesson when she goes back at night!
Just as I was thinking angrily, my phone suddenly rang.
Li Mengmeng answered the phone and listened to the voice on the phone for a while. Then she showed a troubled look on her face and said: "Second uncle, I... I was eating out with friends, and you didn't tell me before coming.
"Hey, I don't have time now. How about you find a place to eat and I'll come find you in the evening?"
As Li Mengmeng finished speaking, the voice on the phone immediately became louder. Even though Ye Su, who was driving, did not intentionally eavesdrop, he could still hear some words intermittently.
"But, I really have something to do now..."
Li Mengmeng's face turned pale after being yelled at by the voice on the phone. Although she looked very embarrassed, she still wanted to persevere.
"whats the matter?"
The sound was so loud that Ye Su could no longer pretend not to hear it. He slowed down the car and asked.
"Ah? No... nothing, it's just... my second uncle's family came to Qingjiang and asked me to have a meal with them at noon. I told them to go there in the evening."
Li Mengmeng said with some stumbling.
"They seem to be in a hurry. Do they have anything else to say to you?" Ye Su could only continue to ask after listening to the constant shouting on Li Mengmeng's cell phone.
"It's not something too urgent. She is my second uncle's sister. She just graduated this year. My second uncle wanted to find a job for her, so he asked me if there was any way I could arrange it."
Li Mengmeng said helplessly.
"In that case, let's eat together at noon. They are in a hurry, so we can't keep them waiting for too long. Ask them where they are? Let's just drive there."
Ye Su said.
"How can that be done? I agreed to treat you to dinner as a thank you for what happened in the hospital before. How can you delay it because of my things?" Li Mengmeng instinctively wanted to refuse.
Just kidding, she finally got such an opportunity to be alone with Ye Su. She really didn't want to be ruined by anyone.
In fact, if I really like Ye Su, I don't think so. After all, the time we have known each other is not that long, only about a month.
But in this month, every meeting with Ye Su left a deep impression on Li Mengmeng's heart, so maybe she didn't like her yet, but there was no doubt that Li Mengmeng did have a good impression of Ye Su.
And because Li Mengmeng believed that her identity was too different from that of Ye Su, nothing could happen between the two. Therefore, after she developed such a good impression, she instinctively wanted to completely eliminate it.
in one's own heart.
It's just that many things, if you don't forcefully suppress them, may fade away naturally. However, once you forcefully try to eliminate or suppress them, they will rebound.
The same goes for having a good impression of a person.
In fact, even Li Mengmeng herself has not realized that her current attention and attitude towards Ye Su has exceeded the limit of ordinary friends.
"It's okay. This is not an emergency. Let's just eat together at noon. As for the opportunity for us to eat alone, there will be more opportunities in the future, at least once or twice."
Ye Su said with a smile.
However, Li Mengmeng just heard the words 'there will be more in the future', and was very excited for a moment. Then she took her mobile phone and said, "Okay, where are you now? I'll go find you right now."
After asking for the address, I talked to Ye Su. Ye Su had already memorized all the routes in Qingjiang City. After thinking about it for a while, he determined how to get to the place Li Mengmeng mentioned, and started immediately.
The car turned around while leaning against the roadside.
After driving for another ten minutes, we arrived at the city square that Li Mengmeng was talking about.
The two of them didn't communicate much along the way. Li Mengmeng felt a little uneasy, while Ye Su felt there was nothing to talk about.
After driving the car to the parking lot, Li Mengmeng made another phone call, and after confirming the location of her second uncle's family, she took Ye Su to the fourth floor of the city square.
All catering stores were concentrated on the fourth floor for unified sales. What surprised Ye Su was that Li Mengmeng's second uncle and his family actually chose KFC as a place to eat...
After taking Ye Su into KFC, Li Mengmeng was obviously a little embarrassed and explained in a low voice: "My second uncle's family is also from farmers. Although the family is relatively rich, they are used to saving. In their view, KFC is already a high-consumption restaurant."
The place.”
Ye Su nodded. Of course he wouldn't care what he ate, but the atmosphere in a place like KFC was really not right...
"Mengmeng! Here it is!"
As soon as the two of them entered the door of KFC, a loud voice rang out, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone around them. Li Mengmeng looked around and saw his second uncle waving his hands towards him on his seat, so he had to
Helplessly leading Ye Su towards that side,
And Li Mengmeng's move immediately attracted the attention of everyone around her, making Li Mengmeng feel a little embarrassed for a moment.
"Second uncle, this is a public place, please keep your voice down."
Li Mengmeng took Ye Su to sit at the table of his second uncle's family and whispered helplessly.
"What's wrong with public places? People don't talk anymore in public places?"
Li Mengmeng's second uncle had a sinister look on his face. After listening to Li Mengmeng's warning, he immediately said with dissatisfied eyes.
"Hey, Mengmeng has lived in the city for a long time. Do you really think you are a city dweller? You don't look down on us in the countryside, right?" The middle-aged woman sitting next to Li Mengmeng's second uncle had a bitter look on her face.
said.
"Second Aunt, what are you saying? Of course I don't mean it..."
Li Mengmeng pursed her lips and said a little aggrievedly.
"Mengmeng, why don't you introduce us to each other?"
