We got married the day we graduated

Chapter 13

At three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Peng Hao was waiting downstairs in Building 7. Seeing Xia Han coming down the stairs, he hurriedly greeted him, "You're here, let's go!"

Xia Han nodded and asked him, "Where are you going?"

"Go to Xinjiekou, I have reserved a table at the restaurant there."

"Okay." She followed him, and found that he was not going to the north gate, but to the west gate, so she asked, "Why don't you go to the north gate and take the subway?"

"What kind of subway do you take? Let's go to Ximen and take a taxi."

"Don't take a taxi, let's go to the subway!" She took out the bus card from her wallet, "I have a bus card, and I can get a discount on the subway, and the subway is convenient, so I don't know when I can get a taxi."

Seeing her like this, Peng Hao had no choice but to say, "Alright then!"

When they arrived at Xinjiekou, because it was still early, the two of them wandered around the underground shopping mall for over an hour, then entered a commercial building, and took the elevator to the western restaurant on the top floor.

At this time, many festive couples came here to eat, and the waiter led them to the reserved seats.

Xia Han looked around, the decoration of this restaurant is very high-end, the ceiling is very beautiful, the wall design is also very distinctive, of course the prices on the menu will not be cheap.There is a pure white piano in the center of the restaurant, and there are already players sitting there playing, the piano music is flowing slowly and the melody is beautiful.

Peng Hao handed her the menu, "Just order whatever you want."

She glanced at it hastily and said, "Order it, I don't know how to order it."

Peng Hao smiled, "Don't be embarrassed, just order!"

She shook her head, "Senior, I really don't know how to order it. It's full of seafood. I've never eaten it. I don't know if it tastes good. You should order it!"

"Alright then! I'll order." He took back the menu and said a few words to the waiter.

Xia Han saw that he wanted to order more, so he said: "Senior is enough, if you order too much, you can't finish it and waste it."

Peng Hao looked at her with a slight smile, returned the menu to the waiter, and said, "Just order that much."

The waiter took the menu and left respectfully, and soon another waiter came over with two glasses of lemonade.

Peng Hao said, "Drink some water first."

She nodded and took a sip from her glass.

"The seafood here is delicious. If you like it, I can bring you here again next time."

"No, no need, just come here this time."

Peng Hao thought she didn't like the style here, and said, "Then go to another place next time."

Xia Han didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject, "Where are you from, senior?"

"I'm from Shanghai, and you're from Hunan, right?"

"Ah."

"Then you speak Hunan dialect and listen to it."

She smiled, "It's better not to speak in dialects in this kind of place, it feels very rustic."

"What's the point? I'll speak a few words of Shanghai dialect, do you want to hear it?"

She waved her hand, "No, I can't understand Shanghainese at all."

Peng Hao chuckled and asked her: "Have you thought about where to develop after graduation?"

"Huh? Never thought about it, I'm only a freshman!"

"Freshman can also be considered. In fact, time flies quickly. When I entered college, I felt that I was only a freshman. In a blink of an eye, I was already a junior."

"Then senior, where do you plan to develop?"

"My family is in Shanghai, so I should go back to Shanghai! But if there is someone I care about elsewhere, maybe I will stay in the same city as her." He looked at her with deep meaning in his eyes.

She avoids his eyes.

Peng Hao took out an exquisite brocade box from his coat pocket, and handed it to her, "Here, a Christmas present."

She was slightly surprised, but didn't reach out to pick up the brocade box.

"Why don't you open it and have a look?"

"This...Look at this box, it should be very expensive, I can't take it."

Peng Hao reached out to open the brocade box, and inside lay an amethyst heart-shaped pendant necklace quietly, "It's not expensive, come and try it on."

"No, senior, I can't accept it."

"It's really not expensive. It's only a few dozen dollars. Do you think this chain is made of platinum? It's actually plated with platinum. And this heart, you think it's amethyst? It's actually glass."

"Huh?" She was a little dumbfounded.

"Don't you think that the things I gave you are too cheap and worthless so you don't accept them?"

"No, no."

"Then put it on." Peng Hao walked around behind her with the brocade box, quietly put the jewelry appraisal certificate at the bottom of the box into his clothes, and put the necklace on her neck for her.

Under the light, the xinxing purple crystal is shining, and it looks very beautiful from a distance.

Peng Hao returned to his seat.

Xia Han also took out a black box from his bag, and brought it to Peng Hao, "Reciprocity is a gift, this is for the senior."

Peng Hao was overjoyed immediately, but ignored her first sentence.He opened the box and found a pen with a white case inside.

"I don't know if the seniors use pens or not. I bought this pen from a stationery store outside the school. It only costs a few tens of dollars. I can't afford it. I hope the seniors don't dislike it."

"How come?" He quickly took out the pen inside, stroked it up and down in his hand, "The shape is very good, I like it very much."

The waiter quickly brought up some of the dishes they ordered. There was sashimi in them. Xia Han ate it with wasabi, choking until he burst into tears, and then refused to eat any more.

This meal was not cheap, and it was Christmas Eve again, so the merchant raised the usual price by at least 50.00%.Although they didn't order a few dishes, they still spent nearly 500 yuan when they checked out.

Xia Han didn't rush to pay, Peng Hao swiped his credit card.

After walking out of the shopping mall, Peng Hao said, "Let's go to the movies! I heard that there are several good movies released recently."

She shook her head and said, "Senior, let's go back to school! Go sit on the stone bench in the lawn, I have something to tell you."

Hearing what she said, Peng Hao of course happily agreed.

The campus of N University is very large. There is a large square near the south gate, and there are large lawns on both sides of the square.The winding gravel road is inlaid on the lawn like a grid, and there are many colorful lights arranged in the grass. At night, the grass on both sides of the square is very beautiful.

Xia Han and Peng Hao returned to school and walked side by side on the gravel road in the middle of the lawn.Xia Han is very small and can only reach Peng Hao's shoulders, so the two of them walked together, which was a little uncoordinated.

There is a long stone bench not far ahead, Xia Han said: "Senior, let's sit there for a while!"

"it is good."

The two sat down on the stone bench.

The dew is heavy at night, the humidity is high, and the winter in Nanjing is also very cold and humid. Xia Han feels his hands and feet are cold when he sits on the cold stone bench for a long time without moving.

Seeing her stomping her feet from time to time, Peng Hao suddenly bent down to take off her shoes.

She was startled, and quickly retracted her feet, "Senior, what are you doing?"

He smiled and said: "I read many books that say that if a girl's feet are cold in winter and a boy holds her feet in his arms, she will not be cold."

Her voice tightened, "Senior, don't be so nice to me."

"Why can't I be nice to you."

"Senior..." She felt that her throat was tight, and it was extremely difficult to even speak, "Actually, what I want to tell you is... please don't like me."

Peng Hao's heart dropped instantly.

She took a deep breath, "I know it's cruel to reject someone, but I don't want to cheat your feelings, and I don't want you to spend money for me." She took out 500 yuan from her wallet and put it into his hand , "Take this meal tonight as my invitation, thank you senior for your care and love for me."

"you……"

"I know, I know I'm too much, so please forgive me. The senior is very good, but I already have someone I like, and I can't accept the senior."

Peng Hao was stunned on the stone bench, and suddenly understood her intentions.The reason why she agreed to his agreement last night was because it would embarrass him to keep refusing, and because she wanted to find a separate opportunity to make it clear to him.Asking him to pay at the restaurant was also because she wanted to save face for him as a boy.She had already prepared a pen for him because she had already guessed that he would give her a gift.
