Chapter 101: A Pleasant Thing
He Chenan came back soon, but he had a lunch box in his hand. When Wenxi was about to take the lunch box out of the backpack, He Chenan suddenly said, "Let's go!"
"Ah?" Wen Xi was stunned for a moment, then stood up and followed He Chenan.
Wen Xi followed He Chenan for a few minutes and came to the tube-shaped building behind the hospital. The tube-shaped building looked quite new, as if it had been built in recent years.
Following He Chenan to the door of the fifth floor, He Chenan took out the key, opened the door, turned sideways, and took the initiative to let Wen Xi in, "This is my dormitory, come in and sit down!"
Wen Xi did not expect that this was actually He Chenan’s single dormitory. The area of the single dormitory was not large, but for one person, it was not small either. It had a layout of one bedroom and one living room. Many families had several people living in such a big house!
Wen Xi hesitated for a moment and then walked into He Chenan's dormitory. The furnishings in the dormitory were very simple. There was only a bed, a table, a bench, a bookshelf and a cabinet.
The quilt on the bed was folded very neatly, and the books on the bookshelf were neatly placed together. One could tell at a glance that He Chenan was a very clean person.
He Chenan put the lunch box on the desk, pulled out the bench, and said, "Comrade Wen, please sit for a while."
Wen Xi nodded, walked over and sat down, took out several lunch boxes from the backpack, opened the lids one by one, and placed them on the desk. He Chenan took off his thick cotton coat and put it on the bed, then went to pour hot water. He shook the first cup of hot water in the cup, washed the rim of the cup, and then poured another cup of water.
"Comrade Wen, have some water." He Chenan handed the teacup to Wen Xi.
"Thank you." Wen Xi reached out to take the teacup, and when he looked up, he met He Chenan's beautiful phoenix eyes. He was wearing a gray turtleneck sweater, with fair skin, handsome face, and a pair of slightly raised phoenix eyes that looked very elegant.
I have to say, this appearance is very pleasing to the eye.
Although Xia Minglei looks good, he is not good enough compared to He Chenan. I don’t know why the original author made Xia Minglei the male lead. Does the author just like to write about rotten cucumbers?
Seeing He Chenan's eyes fall on the lunch box, Wen Xi smiled embarrassedly, "These dishes are all made by me. They are not delicacies. I hope Dr. He will not dislike them."
The main reason is that if they go out to eat, they will be seen by many people. Although not many people know her, there must be many people who know He Chenan. It would not be good to cause misunderstandings among everyone. Moreover, in this era, a man and a woman who get a little closer will be considered to be dating. She has no idea of falling in love at all.
He Chenan was also surprised to see so many lunch boxes on the table. He didn't expect that she would cook so many dishes for him. They were so delicious and looked good.
"Why are you complaining? These delicious dishes are not available in the company cafeteria, nor even in state-owned restaurants. I'm sorry for your expense and trouble. I like them very much." He Chenan looked at Wen Xi and said seriously.
"This is fish fillet porridge, spicy fish fillet, braised fish fillet, pickled fish fillet and boiled fish fillet." Wen Xi introduced the dishes in several lunch boxes, "The last one is fried prawns."
He Chenan sat down next to Wen Xi and brought the fish porridge over. He touched the lunch box and felt the temperature of the fish porridge. He Chenan was a little surprised because the porridge was still hot, as if it had just come out of the pot. You know, it takes several hours to get from the countryside to the county town. She could keep the food at such a temperature. She must have made it early in the morning and kept it in her arms to keep it warm, right?
Thinking of this, He Chenan felt a strange feeling in his heart.
"How should this be eaten?" He Chenan pointed at the fried prawns with chopsticks and asked.
"Has Dr. He never eaten prawns?" Wen Xi asked.
He Chenan shook his head sincerely.
Wen Xi didn't say anything, but reached out and took a prawn. Under He Chenan's gaze, he peeled the prawn. Then he raised the peeled prawn meat in his hand to He Chenan and said, "Did you see it clearly? You can eat it by peeling it like this."
Maybe He Chenan misunderstood Wen Xi's meaning and thought she was going to feed him, so He Chenan opened his mouth and ate the prawn in Wen Xi's hand. Wen Xi widened her eyes and looked at him in surprise. After reacting, Wen Xi's cheeks turned red, "Doctor He, you..."
"Huh?" He Chenan looked at her in confusion, not knowing whether she really didn't understand or was pretending to be confused.
Wen Xi opened his mouth, but said nothing in the end.
After eating the first prawn, He Chenan was conquered by Wen Xi's cooking skills and actually gave Wen Xi a thumbs up. This was completely inconsistent with his personality, because Wen Xi thought he was a cold and taciturn person who could not do such a cute little gesture, but he did it anyway.
"Do you have any paper?" Wen Xi shook his hands, which had become greasy from peeling shrimps, at He Chenan.
He Chenan stood up and walked to the washstand. He poured some hot water into the basin, added some cold water, adjusted it to a suitable temperature, and said to Wen Xi, "Comrade Wen, come here and wash your hands with soap! Soap will make them cleaner."
"Sorry to trouble you, Doctor He." Wen Xi walked over and washed her hands with soap. The soap was indeed more effective. After washing, her hands were clean and refreshed.
He Chen sat at the desk and ate seriously. Every dish was delicious, which whetted his appetite. He ate with chopsticks one after another and couldn't stop at all. It was just that there was too much. Together with the fish fillet porridge, the six lunch boxes were filled to the brim. He didn't even eat a bite of the food he brought back.
He finished eating all of them except the fried prawns, and half of the remaining dishes were still left. He Chenan looked at Wen Xi uncomfortably, "Comrade Wen, I can't finish these dishes. Can I heat them up in the evening?"
Wen Xi nodded, "Of course, I will come to Dr. He to get the lunch box next time I come to the county town. I won't disturb Dr. He's rest. I'll go back first."
If she had known that He Chenan wouldn't finish his meal, she wouldn't have sat here and watched him eat. It felt so embarrassing.
He Chenan hurriedly stood up and used the water that Wen Xi had used to wash his hands to clean his hands that were stained with oil from peeling shrimps. He wiped the water off with the towel on top and said, "Comrade Wen, I'll take you there."
Wen Xi waved her hand hastily to refuse, "Doctor He, no thanks, you still have work to do in the afternoon, you should just have a good rest in the dormitory!"
Wen Xi opened the door and walked out. He Chenan hurriedly followed, "I'll take you to the car."
Seeing that He Chenan insisted on following, Wen Xi no longer refused. The two of them walked out of the tube building, one in front and the other behind, keeping a distance of half a meter.
