Chapter 246 Zhou Siming is happy again
When Lu Qingxi stepped out of the heavy door, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure - Zhou Siming, standing there quietly, like a tall pine tree. His tall body cast a long shadow in the sun, as if even the air around him seemed calm and powerful because of him.
When Zhou Siming's sight caught Lu Qingxi's, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, like a shooting star across the night sky, bright and dazzling. A gentle smile appeared on his face, and then he took a step and walked towards Lu Qingxi.
"Qingxi, I'm going to ask you to accompany me for dinner again today." Zhou Siming's voice was low and magnetic, as if it carried an irresistible charm.
Lu Qingxi smiled back, her smile was like a spring breeze, warm and gentle. "Actually, I should thank you. After all, the food from the production team always lacks some taste." She spoke softly, revealing a hint of playfulness in her words.
Hearing Lu Qingxi's words, Zhou Siming's smile became even brighter. He seemed to be amused by this sentence, his eyes curved into two crescents, and the whole person looked completely different from his usual indifference. "Then let's go eat together." He stretched out his hand and made an invitation gesture.
Lu Qingxi nodded slightly and slowly walked to Zhou Siming's side. They walked side by side towards the car arranged by the program team, leaving a series of invisible footprints.
In the RV on the way to the restaurant, Zhou Siming's eyes sparkled. He was like an experienced dancer, jumping lightly on the stage of the topic and skillfully guiding the melody of the conversation. His voice was low and magnetic, like late-night jazz, making people involuntarily indulge in it. He smiled and focused his attention completely on Lu Qingxi, as if the other people in the car were just the background.
"Qingxi," he spoke softly, his eyes seemed to penetrate Lu Qingxi's hands and reach her heart, "What kind of personality do you feel more comfortable getting along with?" There was a hint of anticipation and curiosity in his voice.
Lu Qingxi raised her head slightly, her eyes were still clear and calm, as if she was not affected by any emotion. "I am actually more accustomed to getting along with people with similar personalities to me," she replied softly, "without too many disputes, without too much gain and loss, just keep it simple." Her voice was calm and firm, as if she was stating an indisputable fact.
Zhou Siming nodded, as if he was satisfied and curious about her answer. "What kind of personality do you think I have?" He continued to ask, his tone revealing a kind of exploration and expectation. His breathing gradually became lighter, as if he was waiting for a crucial answer.
Lu Qingxi pondered for a moment, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. Then she said softly: "We haven't been together for a long time, but I felt that you are a little impatient at first." Her voice was soft, but it hit Zhou Siming's heart hard.
Zhou Siming was caught off guard by her words. He recalled the initial time they spent together, which was indeed a bit awkward and impatient. He felt annoyed, as if he realized his own shortcomings. After a long while, he finally found his voice: "I... I will change." There was a hint of regret and determination in his voice, as if he was promising Lu Qingxi a better self.
Lu Qingxi felt that Zhou Siming seemed to be in a much lower mood, and she didn't know how to respond to this sudden heaviness. So she chose to remain silent and said nothing more. The car fell into a brief silence, with only the sound of breathing in the car playing quietly.
However, the barrage was much more lively than the scene:
"Mr. Zhou must be regretting this now!"
“Hahahahahaha, but he was indeed rude to my wife in the early days.”
“Hahahaha, how embarrassing.”
Zhou Siming was indeed an expert at controlling his emotions. After only five minutes, he quickly adjusted his state and brought up the topic again. His words were like a spring breeze, warm and natural, making Lu Qingxi follow his rhythm and once again fall into this conversation led by Zhou Siming.
At lunch time, the two sat around the carefully decorated dining table, enjoying the feast for the taste buds. Zhou Siming knew Lu Qingxi's dining habits very well, so they tasted each dish quietly as before, without too much verbal interruption.
Zhou Siming carefully observed Lu Qingxi and noticed that there was a large piece of food in front of her. He gently picked up the knife and fork and skillfully cut the food into small and exquisite portions, making sure that each piece was easy to chew and swallow. Then, he gently placed the cut dishes next to Lu Qingxi's plate so that she could enjoy it more conveniently.
After finishing the meal, the two still sat at the table and continued to discuss the taste of the dishes. Zhou Siming could comment on each dish from different angles, while Lu Qingxi preferred to give a more detailed evaluation. The two nodded from time to time and exchanged glances from time to time, as if they were communicating an unspeakable tacit understanding.
When the director team realized that the time was almost up, they quietly signaled to Zhou Siming. However, Zhou Siming seemed to be still immersed in the conversation with Lu Qingxi, and he was still not satisfied. He slightly turned his head and looked across without blinking. Lu Qingxi's smiling face was as warm as the sun, illuminating his heart.
At that moment, Zhou Siming felt an indescribable warmth in his heart. He realized that his feelings for Lu Qingxi had become deeper and deeper, but on this occasion, he did not choose to express his feelings. The other party looked at him with such clear eyes that it was obvious that she had no feelings for him.
Good times are always short-lived. When the two were almost done chatting, the young girl sent by the program team interrupted their conversation. "It's already half past one, the two guests can go back to the cabin." She reminded politely.
Zhou Siming's face flashed with displeasure, but he knew that this was the arrangement of the program and could not be changed. He turned to look at Lu Qingxi, and saw that she nodded gently to show her understanding. He sighed helplessly and had to agree to the little girl's reminder.
They walked out of the restaurant together, the sun shining on them, as if covering them with a layer of golden light. Zhou Siming looked at Lu Qingxi beside him, although he felt a little reluctant, he knew that too much is as bad as too little, so he did not force the invitation.
The afternoon sun shone through the window of the cabin into the quiet room. Lu Qingxi chose to go back to the cabin to rest after the dinner. She didn't know how bad the atmosphere in the cabin was at noon because of her absence.
At noon, although everyone seemed to be sitting around the same table, the atmosphere was unusually polite. The remaining three male guests were obviously hiding something on their minds. Their faces were no longer smiling as usual, but were filled with an indescribable heaviness. As a result, the atmosphere at the table became somewhat awkward, as if everyone was separated by an invisible barrier.
In this dull atmosphere, even the food tasted bland. The food that should have been delicious became hard to swallow. Everyone ate in silence, and the occasional conversation seemed so stiff and deliberate. This awkward atmosphere made everyone feel uncomfortable, but it could not be easily broken.
Although Zhao Yizhen and Yang Wuxi tried their best to break the deadlock, they also felt heavy in their hearts. They didn't understand where the root of this atmosphere came from. But soon, the answer would be revealed to them in the evening...
