Falling Heart

Chapter 82 Can I Give You a Hug?
In the cold winter of Kyoto, he even wore only a vest, with tattoos on his right and left arms.With a full face and a cigarette dangling from his mouth, he looked at her unabashedly with a mouse-like stench.

Shen Qing frowned disgustedly, and pressed the phone calmly.

"Not alone."

"Why didn't I see your companion?" The man grinned, showing his yellow teeth from frequent smoking, which made Shen Qing sick, "You can't lie to me, can you?"

Shen Qing looked in the direction of the counter, whether it was the cashier or the welcome, she pretended not to notice the movement here, her eyes just didn't fall here.

She finally understood that they were also afraid of the bully in front of her.

Even if you don't dare to come forward to help, at least you should secretly call the police, right?
Shen Qing coughed loudly, "I want to eat the medium-spicy mandarin duck pot, and I also want to order a signature from the store."

The spicy mandarin duck pot is 68 per serving, and the signature dish of this store is a mutton called Huatuanjintu, which is priced at 42.

The hint was so obvious, she didn't believe the clerk couldn't understand it.

The man stood in front of Shen Qing, completely blocked Shen Qing's sight, and said viciously: "Don't play tricks on me, either you are obedient and follow me now, or don't blame me for using violence."

"Who should you ask to go with you?" There was a mocking sound from far and near the door of the store, "Although it is night, it is not the time for you to act recklessly."

Shen Qing remembered what she had said to Xie Mingchao, he always came so timely.

The tense strings in her heart relaxed instantly, and she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

The man turned his head, and when he saw Xie Mingchao's appearance, he couldn't help laughing out loud: "You little boy, I can knock you down with one finger!"

"Sorry, I didn't intend to do it myself," Xie Mingchao stepped aside, "I called the district police."

Two policemen with batons walked straight into the store and came straight at the man.

The man was immediately timid, and smiled flatteringly: "Brothers, I just strike up a conversation with this beauty."

"Taking up a conversation?" The policeman sneered, "We heard what you said just now."

Another policeman directly held his arm, "Do you want to go with us by yourself, or shall we take you away by force?"

Shen Qing was relieved when the man was carried away.

"Your evil-attracting physique really hasn't changed at all." Xie Mingchao took a bottle of room temperature orange juice and put it in front of her, and sat down opposite.

"It's not so much that I invite evil, it's better to say that you are here every time," Shen Qing said half-jokingly, "We are with each other."

"Maybe I made you unlucky." He lowered his brows and said in a low tone. "After all, your good luck always guesses the multiple-choice questions correctly, and there are lottery tickets."

"I've always been so lucky, and I'm quite troubled," she said in a relaxed tone. "What's more, every time I turn bad luck into good luck, how can I be considered unlucky?"

Xie Mingchao raised his eyes to look at her, and smiled again, "Well, what you said makes sense."

"I ordered medium spicy, are you okay?" Shen Qing picked up the menu and pointed to the tick next to medium spicy.

"People in Kyoto eat spicy food very much." He looked at her with a half-smile, "It's you who will have problems. I suggest you change it to slightly spicy."

She doesn't believe in evil, and firmly chooses medium and spicy.

"I don't believe it, how hot can medium spicy be?"

It wasn't until the bright red bottom of the pot was served that Shen Qing had the thought of withdrawing from timidity.

"That... I suddenly feel like it's a bit spicy," she picked up the spoon and stirred in the clear soup pot, "I'd better drink the soup."

Xie Mingchao calmly put all the vegetables into the spicy pot, leaving only the green vegetables on the side.

Shen Qing hadn't had time to stop her, she could only watch the meat she was thinking about rolled into the heat wave of the hot pot, and it didn't take long before it floated up, with peppers floating on it.

He also thoughtfully put several slices of meat into her bowl, "Eat it, it's cooked."

She half-closed her eyes and looked at the meat in the bowl, and asked hesitantly, "Do you really want to eat it?"

Xie Mingchao put down his chopsticks, intending to look at her, "Eat it, someone made the falg himself, you must do what you say."

With difficulty, Shen Qing picked it up and handed it to her mouth. As soon as the tip of her tongue touched it, she was so hot that she choked and coughed violently.

Xie Mingchao unscrewed the orange juice and gave it to him, "Drink it."

She hastily took a few sips before barely suppressing the spicy taste rising from her throat.

He sneered: "Shen Qing, that's too low."

"Then you eat, what's the point of just watching me make a fool of yourself?" Shen Qing's face turned red from the choking, and even her lips became brighter.

Xie Mingchao calmly picked up a piece of mutton, soaked it several times in the spicy pot, and rolled it in a small bowl full of peppers.

He swallowed calmly, then looked up at her, "Nothing happened."

In order to prove that she could do it, Shen Qing picked up a lot of meat and ate it all in one go.

As a result, her coughing didn't stop in the second half.

Xie Mingchao ignored the price difference and ordered another bottle of orange juice to relieve her spicy heat, while he drank plain water calmly.

Shen Qing was so hot that tears flowed down her cheeks, her eyes were red, looking at her made her feel pitiful.

But Xie Mingchao just laughed mockingly and didn't look at her again, and went to the cashier to pay the bill.

Shen Qing quickly followed and caught a glimpse of the payment amount, 328.Fortunately, it's not too expensive, he should be able to bear it.

But when she thought about it, two people could eat more than three hundred, and she couldn't help wondering if she could eat too much.

"Sorry, miss, it's not that we don't want to help you," the cashier looked at Shen Qing apologetically, "That man is a well-known bully on our side, and he often harassed our customers in the name of collecting protection money.

I have reported to the police many times, but he has no substantive crimes, and the police can't arrest him directly, they can only give verbal warnings.I actually understood your hint just now, and I was going to call the police, but your boyfriend came in time, so I gave up. "

Shen Qing didn't know how many times she heard others misunderstand their relationship, and was about to explain, Xie Mingchao looked sideways.

"What hint?"

"It's a hint of the price of the dishes," the cashier explained happily, "the young lady is very smart, using the 68 pot bottom and the 42 dishes to spell 110."

Xie Mingchao praised inexplicably: "Oh, it's quite amazing."

Shen Qing replied with a false smile: "Thank you for the compliment."

On the way back, Shen Qing could always smell the hot pot smell on her body.

She moved closer to Xie Mingchao, "Even if you have it, then I will be psychologically balanced."

Xie Ming raised his brows lightly, "Gods have to be touched when they come to eat hot pot."

When the elevator stopped on the fourth floor, Shen Qing suddenly said, "That... Xie Mingchao."

He replied lazily, "Huh?"

The ending tune seemed to stop after going down a slide, and Shen Qing's heart itch.

"I'm going back to City A tomorrow morning, and I won't see you for at least 20 days. Today is the last time we see each other before the Lunar New Year, so as friends, can I give you a hug?"
