Chapter 110 Surprise
Bai Shuiru waved goodbye to Min Ying who was driving away. The slight smile on her face unconsciously fell on the sunset as her gaze followed the car away, and quickly froze and dissipated.
Life can be like a song or a poem, but it can also disappear very easily like the setting sun, and cannot be caught up.
Bai Shuiru was sighing softly, her stomach growling twice. She was loyal to her body and turned around to walk up the steps of the mansion. She was led to the other side of the living room by Uncle Nan who had been waiting for a long time:
"Miss Bai, please move to the small restaurant for dinner tonight."
"Are Mr. Black and Faye going to entertain some important guests?"
"The young master saw that you were not in a very good mood, so he arranged some small surprises for you."
The Hei family is used to dining together in the big restaurant, so Bai Shuiru had only been to the small restaurant when she visited the area before to get to know the environment.
"Did Huo Mian prepare an ice cream dinner for me, but was worried that Wan Wan would not eat properly after seeing me, so he arranged for me to have dinner in the small restaurant?"
Uncle Nan looked surprised and amused. Just as he was about to respond, he heard someone answer:
"I just want to create a perfect and wonderful memory to replace your unhappiness last night."
The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw Hei Huo Mian already standing inside the door of the small restaurant waiting.
Hei Huomian changed into a light grey shirt, iron grey vest and trousers of the same colour. His medium-length hair was casually tied into a bun behind his head, revealing his full forehead. A strand of long hair hung lazily, reminding others to pay attention to his well-defined jawline intentionally or unintentionally.
It was rare that the man didn't button the first button of his shirt, and he casually let his collar open slightly to reveal his delicate collarbone and slightly smooth and firm skin.
"Are you feeling better?"
"It's out of the way."
Hei Huomian smiled gently, reached out for the hand of the little girl who was running towards him as briskly as a bird, and led her into the small restaurant.
The sound of gurgling water can be heard faintly. In the half-hidden restaurant and on the rectangular dining table, which are covered with mist, there are flower arrangements with fresh and elegant white double-petaled lisianthus as the main flowers, dotted with light green and light pink double-petaled lisianthus, jasmine and eucalyptus, blending into a refreshing and light fragrance.
Bai Shuiru, wearing a pure white silk mid-sleeve dress, stood in the mist with her eyes closed and her head slightly raised, using her other four senses besides vision, and her eyes were indeed filled with the joy that was usually seen.
"Beside the stream in the quiet forest, I can still hear the faint sound of deer's hooves stepping on the grass."
There is never a lack of various flowers decorations inside and outside the Sucong Manor, but only this time can Bai Shuiru favor it.
"I love it~! Thank you!"
Bai Shuiru smiled at Hei Huomian, and the next second her eyes shifted to the faces of the male and female servants standing by, praising:
"You must be lost elves, to decorate this place so beautifully that it looks like a fairyland!"
Hei Huomian missed the little girl's attention for only two seconds. His expression immediately froze and he glanced at everyone indifferently.
After receiving the employer's eye signals, the male and female servants immediately left the small restaurant in a stern and orderly manner.
Hei Huomian took Bai Shuiru's hand again, led her to the other side of the dining table, and pulled out a chair for her.
The man and the maid pushed the food cart and placed a pile of ice cream in front of them.
A chocolate ice cream sheep bit a white double eustoma and tilted its head to look at another ivory white original ice cream sheep.
"Huomian, they are so cute!"
Hei Huomian picked up the lisianthus in the Ice Cream Sheep's mouth, shortened the flower stem, and gently inserted it into the hair behind Bai Shuiru's left ear.
The white water was like a faint coral-colored mist passing by her cheeks. She lowered her eyes and raised her hands to gently gather her slightly curled long hair, like an elf in a secret forest, lifting her hair before scooping up water by the lake.
Hei Huomian stared at the little girl with a smile for nearly five seconds before he came to his senses and sat down on the other side of the table.
Bai Shuiru was not polite at all. She picked up a spoon and scooped out the chocolate sheep's butt, taking a big bite and tasting it:
"Well, there are hazelnuts in it..." The little girl suddenly covered her mouth and giggled.
"what happened?"
"Hahahaha!" Bai Shuiru suddenly pounded the table, stopped laughing in time, wiped away her tears, covered her lips with her hand and whispered:
"Sorry, I...I suddenly feel that those nut crumbs look like sheep poop."
Hei Huomian chuckled, picked up the spoon and dug into the ice cream absentmindedly. His Adam's apple rose and fell, and he was obviously choosing his words.
"Shui Ru, I've actually always wanted to change the relationship between you and me - I wasn't sure of this idea until last night."
The little girl was attracted by the topic. She held the tip of the ice cream spoon lightly in her mouth, her eyes fixed on Hei Huo Mian opposite her, and continued:
"Do you want to become my sworn sister?"
"Otherwise," Bai Shuiru looked at the other person's increasingly stagnant and gloomy expression and quickly changed the words:
"brother?"
Hei Huomian's Adam's apple rose and fell. He was about to get back on track with the irrelevant topic when he caught a glimpse of Li You slightly sticking his head out of the door of the small restaurant and then retracting it.
Li You received the look from his host and quickly stepped forward to smile awkwardly at Bai Shuiru, then whispered nervously into her ear:
"I'm sorry to bother you. The Ten Kings of Hell were shocked to hear that you had an accident, and specially requested to see you and greet you."
"Yeah." Hei Huomian's tone was as calm as a straight line on an electrocardiogram that had stopped beating forever.
Hei Huomian looked at the little girl apologetically, but his tone quickly became more helpless and gentle:
"Sorry, I have something urgent to deal with. I'll talk to you when I get back later."
"It's okay, just go ahead!"
Bai Shuiru smiled and clenched her fist to cheer the man up: "Come on, boss! If you still have to hire me, you can't be unemployed!"
Hei Huomian rubbed the top of the little girl's head with regret and amusement, and left a sentence:
“Enjoy your dinner.”
"I will~!"
"Huo Mian, your injury hasn't healed yet, come back early. I'll be waiting for you!"
The man turned sideways upon hearing that, his face showing an obvious blush mixed with tenderness. He looked at her deeply with burning eyes and nodded, then he and Li You walked out of the small restaurant and disappeared instantly.
Bai Shuiru waved sweetly at the tall figure walking towards the door of the small restaurant, then stretched lazily.
Huo Mian is so good, all my previous bad moods are gone!
"Eat~!"
Baishui held a mouthful of ice cream in his mouth, took out his phone, turned on a radio drama about a supernatural novel, and continued to eat while listening.
"…She put the spoon into the soup pot to scoop the soup, and suddenly she noticed that there seemed to be a few round objects in the soup."
Bai Shuiru was biting a spring roll held by the chopsticks in her left hand, her eyes glancing at a light green gentian beside the plate. The spoon in her right hand was scooping ice cream, and she vaguely felt that the spoon was pressing on something slightly hard, and she swallowed subconsciously.
This, this is definitely not ice...cream~!
