Get Married - Chap 9
The night finally passed without any risk.
Xin Rong was lying on the bed in the guest bedroom, but she didn’t sleep as peacefully as the night before.
He dreamed of Shao Chengyun, dreamed of the kiss he gave him, dreamed of him tearing the buttons of his shirt, and dreamed of him holding his hand and throwing chips out.
Shao Chengyun’s face was unexpectedly clear in the dream, from the bridge of the nose, thin lips, to the line of the jaw, it seemed real and within reach. Even Xin Rong couldn’t figure it out, how could he subconsciously remember this man so carefully?
He woke up before the phone’s alarm clock rang, and he didn’t know if it was because he drank alcohol before going to bed. Even after a whole night, he still had a dull headache.
He first got up and sat on the edge of the bed staring at 123 in the fish tank for a while, then gently opened the door and went out, took a room card from the entrance, left the suite and went back to his room.
The area here is about the size of a bathroom in a luxury suite, but after Xin Rong was promoted to the foreman, she had this small private room of her own, and she didn’t need to adjust her living habits with her roommates, so she was already very content.
He quickly finished washing in the room, changed into a clean uniform, and then went to the restaurant to bring Shao Chengyun breakfast.
When Shao Chengyun woke up at 7:30 with the biological clock, the mellow aroma of coffee had already drifted into the bedroom from the outside, as if he was holding a faint thread, luring him out to have a look.
Shao Chengyun put on a coat, opened the door, and saw Xin Rong wearing a neat waiter’s uniform, standing by the closet ironing a shirt.
There were some breakfasts on the long table by the window, and the humidifier was filled with water, presumably Xin Rong got up early in the morning to prepare them.
Seeing this scene, Shao Chengyun shook his head imperceptibly.
——When something goes wrong, there must be a demon. From a distance of a few steps, he watched the boy tidy up his clothes with cold eyes, but he was not at all moved by this gesture.
Seeing him coming out, Xin Rong put down the steam iron in her hand and said good morning to him.
Shao Chengyun asked him, “Wake up so early?” He walked to the window, raised his hand, and completely opened the curtain that still had a layer left.
Xin Rong stood facing the light. The room suddenly brightened up, and Shao Chengyun immediately saw a circle of faint black and blue marks under his eyes, obviously he didn’t sleep well last night.
Xin Rong said, “Today my mobile phone alarm clock rang.”—corresponding to the words yesterday because the alarm clock didn’t ring, so I woke up late.
After a pause, he tentatively said, “Just now I went to the restaurant to get coffee, and I met the manager, who said that today’s cruise ship food festival is short of manpower. The few people I brought before were all new employees. I haven’t been here for the past two days. It’s not suitable for life.”
What Xin Rong said was also true. Because he became a foreman at a young age, people may not be convinced to let him manage those older employees, so Manager Zhu handed over a few new recruits who had just been recruited to him.
Today is the busiest day for the restaurant on the top floor. The “Asian Food Festival” held on the cruise ship started at 11 am, and the seats for lunch and dinner were fully booked. The dining area that Xin Rong was in charge of was already understaffed, and now he was detained by Shao Chengyun’s side. The temporary replacement was not competent, and he was complained by two tables of guests last night, which made it difficult for Manager Zhu to do it.
Shao Chengyun probably didn’t expect Xin Rong to be so condescending, but just to go to work in the restaurant, he almost laughed angrily, and asked him, “Do you like working in restaurants so much?”
What can Xin Rong say? It couldn’t be said that it was because he didn’t want to stay in the same room with Shao Chengyun.
He lowered his voice and replied slowly, “If Mr. Shao needs me to stay, then I will stay…”
Shao Chengyun didn’t say yes or no, he walked to the long table and sat down, he hooked his hands with a cold face.
Xin Rong reluctantly walked over and sat opposite Shao Chengyun. The two started to eat breakfast.
In fact, Shao Chengyun didn’t sleep well last night, and there was an evil fire in his body that couldn’t be extinguished. The person he wanted was separated by a wall, but he could only sleep separately. It wouldn’t be good for anyone else.
But seeing Xin Rong now, seeing him eating in front of him, Shao Chengyun’s heart softened for no reason, and he even didn’t want to admit that his tolerance for this boy was surprisingly high.
Shao Chengyun only drank half a cup of coffee, and the food on the table was almost unchanged.
Xin Rong finished the breakfast in front of her, and then silently put away the disposable tableware. He no longer had any hope of being able to temporarily escape from this suite today, and was trying to sort out his emotions, when Shao Chengyun suddenly said to him, “Go if you want.”
When Xin Rong heard this, she raised her eyes in astonishment, and met Shao Chengyun’s gaze.
The man was sitting in the chair, with the window sill behind him. He was against the light, with a cold expression on his face, but deep eyes.
Xin Rong froze for a moment before saying, “Thank you, Mr. Shao.”
Shao Chengyun didn’t say anything at first, but after Xin Rong got up, he also stood up, walked around the table and walked to Xin Rong.
“Just a verbal thank you?” He put his hands in his pockets and stared at Xin Rong.
Xin Rong felt that living with Shao Chengyun for the past two days might have really led him to the wrong end, why did she suddenly understand the implication in these words.
He didn’t dare to answer, and looked away unnaturally, at the moment when he was about to retreat, Shao Chengyun grabbed his uniform skirt and pulled him towards him. First bit on his lips, then kissed him deeply for a while, and finally let him go and said without any surprise, “Egg tart tastes good.”
A child who has never been in a relationship has a thin face. After that, Xin Rong didn’t say a word for almost five minutes, and both ears were red.
Shao Chengyun got a hot kiss early in the morning, and his mood improved greatly. Before Xin Rong went out, he stopped him again, and asked knowingly, “Why, are you still angry?”
Xin Rong squatted on the ground to tie her shoelaces, and said in a low voice when she stood up, “No.”
Shao Chengyun stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, “The table was reserved for me last time, and I ate lunch and dinner there.”
Xin Rong had no choice but to say “Yes”, and looked up at Shao Chengyun again. It wasn’t until the man raised his jaw that he could leave, that he touched the badge in his pocket, opened the door, and left the suite.
–
No matter how the eyes of the colleagues around him were on him this day, Xin Rong was still doing his own thing steadily.
Before entering the restaurant, he also gave himself psychological training. He went to the box with Shao Chengyun the night before, and was stuffed with hundreds of thousands of chips to play casually. How can there be an impenetrable wall in the world?
Xin Rong made fun of others as he liked, he was too lazy to argue, and just immersed himself in his work. Until Meng Donglin heard another old employee talking to Xin Rong through the bar, and cursed from the air, “What are you talking about!? You have nothing to do, right?”
The employee who was scolded knew Meng Donglin’s violent temper, so he didn’t dare to speak back, and walked away embarrassingly.
Xin Rong walked to the bar and said to Meng Donglin gratefully, “Brother Dong, don’t get angry, it’s not good for the guests to hear you.”
Meng Donglin’s face was really ugly, but he still asked Xin Rong in a slow tone, “Let’s talk when I’m free later. Can you go back to your room tonight?”
Xin Rong didn’t know what to say to him, so in the end she could only give an ambiguous sentence, “I can’t tell right now, let’s see tonight.”
Xin Rong herself was actually in a mess. She thought she was no longer in front of Shao Chengyun, and she could find her former mentality by doing the things she had always been familiar with. But when he was in the restaurant, his mind would always think of Shao Chengyun uncontrollably, and even involved some indescribable scenes.
Outsiders looked at him calmly on the surface, but they didn’t know that his heart was in a mess. It’s not that he doesn’t care about those strange eyes, but that he doesn’t care about other people’s thoughts at all, and he hasn’t figured it out yet.
The morning passed quickly, Xin Rong looked at his watch a few times during the impromptu lunch, the tables around were gradually filled with guests, and Shao Chengyun came late.
The waiter who led the seat walked ahead and still brought him to the dining table at the corner of the stairs.
This time he didn’t sit right away. When Xin Rong came over to pour him some water, he put his hands in his pockets and stood talking to Xin Rong.
In front of the crowd, Shao Chengyun did not do anything beyond the rules. Xin Rong held a glass bottle full of water, and stood a step away from him, listening to him ask, “Are you tired, aren’t you coming back this afternoon?”
Shao Chengyun’s tone of voice was very light, but the meaning was intimate, as if Xin Rong decided to stay or stay between them.
Xin Rong didn’t know what to say for a while, looked at him, pretended to be normal and said, “Mr. Shao, didn’t you say that you still have dinner here this morning, and the food tonight is even better.”
The implication is that Shao Chengyun has agreed to finish the day in the restaurant.
Shao Chengyun probably also liked Xin Rong’s character that would not give in to him in his private heart, so he leaned down a little and said, “What do I really want to eat…don’t you know?”
After speaking, I saw the water in the bottle swaying suddenly.
However, this is the area where Xin Rong works after all. He has been working in the restaurant for more than two years and has always been a down-to-earth and dedicated employee.
Shao Chengyun teased him and was not serious with him, even though he felt his heart beat faster and his hand holding the bottle trembled, he still looked at Shao Chengyun and said to him as calmly as possible, “Mr. Shao, please sit down, I will show you Today’s special.”
