Who wants to be a male model after being reborn? I want to be a male god.

Chapter 203: Adults Were Children Once

After leaving the hotel, Xu Wen drove Xia Ning to eat.

If this couple can sit down and eat, it will be the beginning of reconciliation.

He felt that the two of them had reconciled now.

After discussion, they finally decided to eat at Grandpa Ken's.

Xu Wen asked, "Is it so simple? This is not delicious."

In the past, Western fast food was indeed a luxury for him, and any order would cost dozens of dollars.

Several dozen dollars are enough for a meal for their family of three.

But it’s different now. The quality of life has improved, and we dare to order a family bucket when we go to Ken’s Grandpa for dinner!
Xu Wen thought Xia Ning would choose some high-end restaurant or an internet celebrity restaurant, after all, girls like these.

But in the end she chose Grandpa Ken.

"I want to eat fried chicken now. Their fried chicken is the best, so we'll eat that," Xia Ning explained.

After explaining, he did not forget to pick up on Xu Wen's joke at the hotel: "Didn't you say that we should be more frugal with our family's money?"

Her big eyes blinked, looking particularly sincere.

"Why don't we go home and eat some noodles?" Xu Wen suggested seriously.

"That won't work." Xia Ning refused decisively.

On the way to the nearby Grandpa Ken's, she also told Xu Wen interesting stories from her childhood.

She said her mother never allowed her to eat these things before, saying they were junk food.

Xu Wen said that this is all the prejudice of parents.

He silently complained in his heart that if these people saw the takeout in the future, especially the traditional Chinese fried rice, they would know that the "junk food" they were talking about was too clean.

Xia Ning also agreed with Xu Wen's idea.

"Meat patties are healthy food, bread is healthy food, and vegetable leaves are healthy food. How can they become junk food when put together?" She didn't understand.

After expressing her confusion, she continued to talk about her childhood.

When they were in elementary school, Grandpa Ken once distributed a flyer.

There are various meal packages printed on it, and you can get a discount if you take it with you.

After receiving the flyers, the children cut out the hamburgers, fried chicken and other items on them and took them to school.

Because Xia Ning had never eaten it before, she thought it was some kind of good stuff. Adding to her classmates' boasting, she actually exchanged all her high-end stationery for it. It was only after a long time that she realized she had been cheated.

"I will sell health products to you when you are old." Xu Wen joked after listening.

"I'm not stupid anymore!" Xia Ning complained.

Xu Wen also shared his childhood experiences, saying that he was even more miserable.

He didn't know what it was at the time and could only watch.

One day he found one in the trash can and kept it as a treasure.

"Then let's go have a good meal today!" Xia Ning pointed forward.

"Okay." Xu Wen responded with a smile.

When a person grows up, he will start to make up for his childhood self. After all, everyone has regrets in his childhood.

However, some regrets are destined to be irreparable.

For example, they can’t enter Grandpa Ken’s playground now and can only watch from the side.

"Lend me a child so I can go in and play too," Xu Wen suggested.

"Why don't you tell us that you already have a child so you can go in and play." Xia Ning also lay outside and watched.

She also wanted to go in and play, but unfortunately her age did not allow it.

Xu Wen had never thought about having a child, not in his previous life, nor now.

"If I had a child, I would definitely bring him here to play every day." Xu Wen fantasized.

Although he had never thought about having children, it did not affect his dreams.

"I think you will be a good father in the future." Xia Ning suddenly said this.

Xu Wen asked in confusion: "How do you know?"

"I guessed it." Xia Ning said, then turned around and walked towards the sales counter.

She just had a fantasy.

If she and Xu Wen had a child, that child would definitely be super cute.

Some people say that the highest level of love for someone is to want to have a child for that person.

Xia Ning has this idea now.

But she would not tell this idea to anyone, after all, she and Xu Wen had only been together for such a short time.

If other people knew about this, they would definitely call her a nymphomaniac.

The two came to the counter and started ordering food.

Xu Wen inexplicably recalled his past experience at McDonald's.

He and his sister randomly found a store and ran into Lan Qiu Sheng who was working there. He seemed like a regularly refreshed NPC.

However, the NPC did not refresh at Grandpa Ken's place.

After ordering, the two found a seat and sat down. Even though they knew they couldn’t finish it, they still ordered a lot.

“When I was a child, what I envied most were people who could celebrate their birthdays here. I couldn’t even imagine what kind of life that would be like,” Xu Wen said with emotion.

"If you don't celebrate your birthday this year, we'll celebrate it here. Let's celebrate your birthday here next year." Xia Ning directly advanced the time to next year.

"No, no, some things can only be done when you are a child." Xu Wen quickly refused.

He really couldn't imagine this scene, an adult celebrating Grandpa Ken's birthday.

No matter how thick-skinned he is, that's not how he would use it.

"There is nothing that can only be done when you are a child. All adults were once children, although only a few people remember it." Xia Ning supported her chin with a faint smile on her face. As soon as she finished speaking, someone reminded them to get their food, interrupting their conversation.

They ordered so much that it took two people just to carry it all over the table.

Xu Wen picked up a French fry and continued the previous topic: "Did you come up with this idea yourself? It's quite literary."

"From The Little Prince." Xia Ning picked up the burger and took a bite without hesitation.

"Lingling said that you have read a lot of books, which is amazing." Xu Wen exclaimed.

"They are just novels. You forget them once you read them." Xia Ning picked up the egg tart again and ate it with satisfaction.

Apart from the egg tarts here, none of the ones she bought outside tasted like this.

"Then you are very suitable to be a writer." Xu Wen continued, and his attention was now more on the fried chicken in front of him.

"I thought about it before, but I didn't have time when I was in high school." Xia Ning sighed.

She put down what she was holding, stared at Xu Wen and said, "I figured out a lot after I woke up."

There was a sudden silence between the two of them.

Xu Wen stopped eating. He realized that the argument between them was not over yet, but was just temporarily filed away and brought up again.

He was obviously very good at dealing with women, but his tricks were useless against Xia Ning.

"Well, go ahead." He nodded silently.

"Actually, I think my problems and conflicts are just because I'm too idle and you're too busy. It's easy for idle people to have wild thoughts," Xia Ning concluded.

She felt that her current anxiety was not just because of Xu Wen.

She also had her own reasons.

It is indeed very pleasant to do nothing, but it is very easy to fall into emptiness and even nihilism.

She thought that human energy is limited, and Xu Wen has a lot of things to do every day, so naturally he has less energy to focus on her.

She has nothing to do every day, so she puts all her energy into her relationship, which is very sick.

Xia Ning has always been a smart person.

Whenever she has free time, she starts to reflect on herself.

It’s not that Xu Wen doesn’t love her, he’s just too busy and doesn’t have time to quarrel.

"I should find something for myself to do. Your suggestion is very good. I can write something and do everything I wanted to do in the past." Xia Ning's eyes revealed sincerity, without anger.

Xu Wen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing these summaries.

As long as she doesn't question whether he loves her or not, Xia Ning can do whatever she wants.

"I don't want much, as long as you are happy. You can do whatever you want, and I will support you. If you write something, I will be your first reader." Xu Wen encouraged.

He was grateful for the current era, and fortunately, "as long as you are happy" did not mean to express silence.

"Then we won't quarrel?" Xia Ning picked up another piece of fried chicken: "I apologize, I shouldn't have come to your workplace without saying a word and didn't trust you."

"I apologize too. I shouldn't have hidden anything from you. Even though you think I'm fake, everything I said is true. I won't hide anything from you again." Xu Wen said sincerely.

There were no more tricks this time, just a commitment from the heart.

Since being with Xia Ning means a stable life and both sets of parents are very satisfied, he will manage this relationship well.

This is what he's always wanted.

"Cheers to the successful resolution of the first conflict!" Xia Ning raised the fried chicken in her hand.

"Cheers!" Xu Wen did not question why fried chicken was used for toasts, and raised his hand as well.

After the fried chicken touched, neither of them mentioned the hotel again.

As they ate, they talked about past memories, and they realized that they both had many regrets in their childhood.

Xia Ning's parents are strict.

Xu Wen is simply poor.

They agreed to make up for their childhood regrets bit by bit.

I ordered a lot of food but I didn't finish it.

In order to avoid waste, Xu Wen chose to pack up the food and ordered some new ones.

Xu Ling prefers McDonald's, but Grandpa Ken's is also delicious.

He drove Xia Ning to her doorstep, and the two said goodbye to each other reluctantly before leaving. They finally separated only when Xu Wen said they would meet early the next morning.

Tomorrow is the day when school starts again after the National Day holiday, and he hasn't prepared anything yet.

Fortunately, there is no need to prepare anything, and college students don’t have homework.

On the way home, Xu Wen received a text message on his mobile phone reminding him that a total of more than 50,000 yuan had been deposited into his account, which was his salary for six days of hard work.

The rest is taxed.

He never thought that one day he would be able to reach the country's personal income tax threshold.

In the past, the money I earned was from unclear sources and I didn’t have to pay taxes.

He was still a little uncomfortable with paying so much tax suddenly.

When I got home, my mother and sister were both at home and they had already eaten.

But when Xu Ling saw what her brother was holding, she still ran over excitedly.

She didn't mind that it was cold, and ran to the kitchen with the bag to heat it up in the microwave.

"You can't keep pampering her like this. She'll get fatter." The mother complained with a smile.

I didn’t get to eat it in the past, so of course I want to eat more now that I have money.

But Xu Wen knew that saying this would hurt his mother, so he joked, "Eat it. If you gain some weight, we'll have meat to eat during the New Year."

Now that I'm home, I can concentrate on writing. I'll resume writing twice a day.
