Li Qingshen gently moved his body and saw Ling Momo’s long hair strands had fallen onto the Hagen Dazs, some of the cream sticking to them. He naturally raised his hand to gently wipe it away with a tissue, disturbing the still-dazed Ling Momo.
Her face instantly flushed red. She didn’t know what was wrong with her, why she had stared blankly at Li Qingshen for so long because of what he had said earlier.
Moreover, she couldn’t tell if it was her imagination, but she always felt that Li Qingshen’s gaze at her earlier was so strange, as if he hid something she could neither understand nor see.
So unfamiliar, yet so charming!
Lost in thought, Ling Momo felt an increasing sense of chaos and irritability in her heart. She quickly lowered her head and began to dig into the Hagen Dazs with her spoon, eating it rapidly.
The ice cream was sweet and cool, slowly settling the restlessness and confusion she had just felt.
After finishing the ice cream, Li Qingshen drove her to a Chinese restaurant for dinner. It was surprising to find such authentic Chinese food in a foreign land. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novelFɪre.net
It seemed that Li Qingshen frequently dined at that Chinese restaurant. The owner recognized him and, seeing him arrive, was especially warm and excited, "Mr. Li, you’re here; it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you."
Li Qingshen smiled and said, "I went back to China."
"I see, Mr. Li, how long will you be staying in America this time?"
"I’m leaving tomorrow," Li Qingshen replied, then pointed to Ling Momo by his side and introduced, "This is my student, Ling Momo."
Ling Momo obediently nodded and greeted, "Hello."
The owner’s expression turned surprisingly intrigued as he glanced at Ling Momo several times before leading Li Qingshen and Ling Momo to a soft sofa seat by the window. "Mr. Li, do you still want the usual?"
While waiting for the food, Li Qingshen went to the restroom, and Ling Momo sat alone playing with her phone. When someone came to serve the dishes, Ling Momo looked up and saw it was the owner who had spoken to Li Qingshen earlier. She smiled and said, "Thank you."
The owner straightforwardly smiled back at Ling Momo and said, "Miss Ling is really beautiful. This is the first time I’ve seen Mr. Li bring a girl out for dinner. Is Miss Ling Mr. Li’s girlfriend?"
Mistaken thus, Ling Momo immediately felt a slight blush of embarrassment and waved her hands, saying, "No." The owner just took it as her being shy and didn’t say anything more, but his gaze still carried hints of ambiguity.
However, it was Li Qingshen who caught the owner’s words as he came out of the restroom. A smile formed at the corner of his lips as he casually sat down to eat. After the meal, Li Qingshen went to pay, while Ling Momo stood waiting at the entrance.
When he finished paying, Li Qingshen turned his head and saw Ling Momo’s lovely figure standing at the door, his eyes immediately softened a lot. Seeing his demeanor, the owner chuckled and nudged Li Qingshen’s arm. Li Qingshen then came back to his senses, somewhat awkwardly took the change, and was about to leave when it suddenly seemed like he remembered something. He turned his head and quietly asked the owner, "Do we really look like boyfriend and girlfriend?"
The owner looked up, stared at Li Qingshen, nodded, and said, "Not only do you look like it, but you also match each other well."
