Marriage First, True Love Later



215 Dinner date

The restaurant that Zhou han had booked was a garden restaurant on the top floor of a six-star hotel. The environment was very beautiful. This restaurant had been chosen as the top ten best restaurants of the year on the River City Forum. The restaurant’s dining environment and service were first-class.

The waiter led them to their seats. The waiter was about to pull out a chair for Lin Li to sit down, but he was stopped by Zhou Han’s gaze. He personally went to pull out the chair for Lin Li.

Lin Li nodded her head slightly and thanked him. thank you. She was still not used to his gentleness and consideration in such a short time.

Zhou han walked around the table and sat down opposite her. He passed the menu that the waiter handed over to her. see what you want to eat.

Lin Li reached out to take it, looked at him strangely, and asked, ” “Why did you suddenly ask me out for dinner?” But Speaking of which, the two of them had never had a meal together like this before.

“Don’t dating always involve eating and watching movies?” Zhou han asked.

Lin Li was stunned. It was only then that she realized that he wanted to go on a date with her. Just as he said, he was serious.

Without saying anything more, Lin Li retracted her gaze and looked at the menu in her hand.

After ordering their food, the waiter served them their orders with a violin solo.

The girl playing the violin smiled and nodded at them. Then, she reached out and placed the violin on her shoulder. The slow and smooth music melodiously floated out with beautiful notes.

Lin Li turned her head and saw that he was looking at her with a faint smile on his lips.

“You called him over?” Lin Li looked at him and asked. She had seen such a scene on TV before, but she had never encountered it herself.

Zhou han nodded and reached out to take the wine glass in front of her table. He poured half a glass of red wine into the transparent glass and shook it gently with his hand. The dark red liquid mixed with the dark yellow light in the dining room and looked very charming.

He put the glass in his hand to his nose and sniffed it gently. He seemed to be sure that the red wine was fragrant and rich. Zhou han then handed the glass to Lin Li. come and try it.

Lin Li looked at him. Even when she was still an unrivaled glutton in the universe, she had never been so particular about eating and drinking. She took the wine he handed over and gently sipped it. She wasn’t someone who knew how to taste red wine, but she could tell whether it was good or not. It didn’t have the usual astringent taste, but today’s Red wine was mellow.

“How is it?” Zhou han also poured himself a cup and gently took a sip.

Lin Li nodded and said softly, ” “It’s very good.”

Zhou han smiled and said, let’s eat.

The food here was indeed very good, and it didn’t waste its reputation as one of the top ten restaurants on an online forum. In fact, when she was still together with Chengxiang, she had wanted to come here for a while. She had been a foodie since she was young, and after being in Jiangcheng for so long, she had eaten at almost all the restaurants, big and small. This was the only restaurant that she had never tried. The main reason was that this restaurant wasn’t open to the public and was like a private club. Only lifetime members of the hotel could enjoy the service here. That was why his mysteriousness and difficulty in entering had made the outside world spread rumors about him as if he was a God.

Back then, in order to please her, Chengxiang’s boss had also wanted to ask someone to find a friend to get two tickets here. However, when the two of them had gotten the tickets and were about to come, Chengxiang’s mother suddenly broke her leg. The two of them couldn’t go and stayed at home to take care of his mother. Later, when they thought about it, they didn’t have the chance.

At first, she thought that she and Chengxiang would come one day. At that time, she was still deeply in love with Chengxiang and wholeheartedly wanted to be with him. She also believed that as long as she continued to stay by his side, he would eventually fall in love with her. Then, she would no longer be the shadow of the girl in his heart, but the woman he truly loved.

It was just that things were unpredictable. In the end, she didn’t have the chance to come over with Chengxiang. Even though they had been together for 10 years, being a substitute wasn’t true love. What she didn’t expect was that she would have the chance to come to this restaurant again. It was just that the person who came over with her wasn’t Chengxiang at the beginning, but the current Zhou han.

Just as Lin Li was still in a daze, the waiter took away the dinner in front of them and served the desserts they had ordered. However, the male waiter behind the waiter was holding a bouquet of red roses in his hand. After the waitress placed the desserts for the two of them, the male waiter had a slight smile on his face. He took a step forward and politely bowed slightly to Lin Li. Then, he stood up straight and looked at Zhou han.

Lin Li was a little shocked by the bouquet of red roses in his hand. She stared at the beautifully wrapped roses and turned to look at Zhou han. Her eyes looked at him as if she was asking what was going on and what he was trying to do tonight.

Zhou han picked up the napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth. Then, he directly placed it on the side of the table. He got up and took the bouquet of roses from the waiter’s hand. He took out a small card from the bouquet and stared at it for a while. His brows furrowed slightly, as if the content of the card made him a little embarrassed.

Lin Li had no idea what was going on up there. The fiery red roses dazzled her eyes, and she couldn’t help but ask curiously, ” “Zhou, Zhou han, what’s going on?”

Zhou han didn’t say anything and put the card back to the bouquet. Then, he walked to Lin Li’s side and handed the Rose in his hand to her. He looked at the corner of her eyes and said, ” “The most, the most beautiful bouquet for the most beautiful and charming you.” His words were beautiful, and so were the flowers. However, it was clear that the person who had delivered the flowers was not used to such mushy words of love. His voice was completely devoid of the affection and gentleness of the content, and it was a little stiff and unnatural.

However, even though Zhou Han’s words were a little stiff and unnatural, and even a little embarrassed, Lin Li was still a little frightened by such a situation. She was so stunned that she didn’t know how to react at all.

Zhou han, who was originally a little uncomfortable, relaxed a little when he saw Lin Li like this. He reached out and gently touched her head and handed the flowers in his hand to her. Then, he took out money from his pocket and gave it to the waiter and the violin girl as tips.

The two of them nodded respectfully, then pushed each other away with a faint smile. Lin Li didn’t miss it. The girl playing the violin walked forward and glanced at her. Her eyes and smile were filled with envy.

Zhou han sat back in his seat. At this moment, the embarrassment and embarrassment on his face were completely gone. He was natural and confident. On the other hand, Lin Li was still in shock and couldn’t recover from the shock.

Lin Li hugged the flowers for a while before she slowly understood the current situation. She looked at Zhou han and asked in confusion, ” what did you come down for tonight? ” She really didn’t understand why he was eating, playing solo, and giving her flowers.

Zhou han looked at her with a smile and asked, ” “Do you like the flowers?” He reached out for the glass and took a sip of red wine.

Upon hearing this, Lin Li looked down at the flowers in her arms. To be honest, every woman liked flowers, especially bright roses. It was difficult for people to say no or refuse such a bright red and a bouquet of roses.

According to her own true feelings at the moment, Lin Li nodded very frankly.

Zhou han nodded and said,”it’s good that you like it.” &Nbsp

However, liking someone was one thing. If he didn’t understand, he would still have to ask clearly.

“You’re eating and giving me flowers, what are you trying to do?” Lin Li looked at his face, which was full of confusion and doubt.

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhou han replied with a matter-of-fact expression, ” “Isn’t this the way to date and chase girls?” “Isn’t a candlelight dinner and flowers a common routine?” he continued to ask.

Lin Li was stunned. She looked at him for a long time before she slowly said, ” “So … What you did tonight was actually called a ‘date’?”

what’s wrong? ” Zhou han raised his eyebrows and asked, ” is there a problem with the program? ” There shouldn’t be any problems, so he went online to look for information.

After looking for information online, he made a call to make a reservation in the afternoon. In order to make it more realistic, he especially borrowed a membership card from ye Ziwen. There was no other reason than that this restaurant was the most romantic restaurant in the whole of Jiangcheng. After making the reservation, he made a call to the florist according to the information on the internet and ordered a bouquet of bright roses. He even followed the florist’s owner’s introduction and ordered a bouquet of Eleven Roses, although he did not understand and understand what the eleven Roses meant. However, he told the florist that it was for his wife, so he thought that the florist would not misinterpret his meaning.

Lin Li looked at him and didn’t know how to answer. There was indeed nothing wrong with following the procedure, but she always felt that something was wrong. It was so strange that she couldn’t put her finger on it.

He looked down at the bouquet in his hand and saw the small card that he had picked up before. He took it and opened it gently. There was nothing else written on it except the words that Zhou han said when he handed the flowers to her just now.

She suddenly remembered the awkward and unnatural expression he had when he said this. This sentence was obviously found on the internet.

Suddenly, as if she had figured something out, Lin Li looked at him with the card in her hand and said with a half-smile, ” you’ve had dinner and sent flowers this evening. Did you find out all of this online? ”

Hearing this, Zhou Han’s face flashed with a hint of unnaturalness, but he immediately covered it up and asked, ” “Do you think I’m someone with such a low EQ?” Under such circumstances, even he would not admit it. This was a matter of face.

Lin Li chuckled and didn’t expose him. She only asked, ” “Are you going to invite me to the outer beach or watch a movie?”
