Shen Xiran looked up and saw that Si Lianye's eyes were deep. Their eyes met in the air.

When he left the restaurant, it was already 2 in the afternoon.

Shen Xiran sat in the car on the way back. The scenery on both sides of his eyes sped by without saying a word.

"Was it affected by him?" Shangguan Zhe stared at the road in front of him seriously. While busy, he took out the space in the rearview mirror and looked at her thoughtfully.

"Nope." Shen Xiran laughed without a care. He looked into the mirror and said, "I was just thinking about something."

He was indeed thinking.

Many years ago, Si Lianye had used a similar method to get her hands on him.

Back then, she was extremely moved by his romance. Now, it seems that it was really because she was too young and ignorant.

When he returned home, he found that the empty house next door was moving. Things were brought in one by one, and people were also urging the workers, "Hurry up, the owners spent a lot of money to say that they are going to live here today."

Shen Xiran burst into laughter. Who would be in such a hurry to move? Could it be that he couldn't find a place to stay?

She had always ignored these matters of others. Even if it was her future neighbors, she had no intention of interacting with them. Shen Xiran shook his head. He took out the key to open the door and entered, leaving the busy scene next door behind him.

He watched the financial news at home for an afternoon, and only when the sun went down did he realize that he had not eaten dinner.

Shen Xiran got up and walked slowly towards the kitchen. He had prepared the pot and spices, and when he opened the refrigerator, he found that there were no ingredients inside.

"..." As expected, she had been so busy recently with Si Lianye that she couldn't even take care of her own living arrangements?

She thought of something, laughed at herself, closed the refrigerator door, and changed her shoes as she habitually bought from the free market.

The elevator was empty.

After she pressed the close button, someone walked quickly over, reached out his hand and put it between the door and the door. The elevator door, which had its own sensing function, opened and a figure entered.

Ever since the news reports about the elevator failure and the incident where someone had been hurt, there had been very few people who had the guts to reach for the door. It was unknown if this person was bold or careless.

Shen Xiran couldn't help but to look at that person's face, he saw Si Lianye holding an A4 paper in her hand and smiling at him.

The moment Shen Xiran saw this face, he couldn't help but frown, "Why are you here?"

Her face darkened when she thought of a possible reason. "You followed me?"

"God knows, definitely not." Seeing her in such a state, Si Lianye immediately took a step back to prove her innocence. He waved the documents in his hand, and the paper started to flutter. "I'm just here to sign the sales contract, and also to supervise the later stages of the transaction."

The personality that was originally tempered into steel had become soft on the fingers when he met her again.

"A sales?" Shen Xiran felt like he was blessed by the heavens, "That new neighbor is you?"

"Exactly." Si Lianye threw the key she just got into the air and caught it firmly. "Are you surprised? I was surprised, too. I had asked my secretary to choose a place for me to stay, but somehow I ended up here. "Therefore, it can be considered as …"

"Fate?" The corner of Shen Xiran's mouth curled up into a faint smile as he filled in the rest of his words.

She could tell with just her hair that Si Lianye was lying with her eyes open.

However, this was a good opportunity to approach him.

She hadn't even gone to look for him yet, but he had already come to find her … Then, don't blame her for being impolite.

That short-lived smile was obviously out of Si Lianye's expectation. After staring blankly for a few seconds, he forced a smile to recover his composure. "Since you also feel that it's fate, why don't we have a meal tonight to celebrate it?"

Seeing him work hard for so long, how could it not work for him?

Shen Xiran had already made up his mind. His red lips lifted, and his wavy black hair swung behind him. He suddenly raised his gorgeous smile and said, "I'm willing to accompany you."

She had always been beautiful, but now that she smiled, she looked even more like a beautiful flower in spring. She was so beautiful that she could not be described with words.

Si Lianye looked at her red lips and remembered its sweetness and softness. She wanted to carry her and pluck it, but she resisted in the end and turned her head away as if nothing had happened.

In a never-ending stream of customers in the noodle restaurant, Shen Xiran opened a pair of disposable chopsticks and scraped the bamboo needles clean before placing them gently on a blue and white porcelain bowl.

He had thought that he would bring him to a place like this noon, but he didn't expect that it was actually here.

She was very familiar with this noodle house.

Previously, when she was still with him, she would often bring him here for noodles. This was because the chili peppers in the house were always very pleasing to eat. When one ate them, they would make one break out in sweat, causing her, who was a spicy person, to be unable to stop.

At that time, although Si Lianye had despised this kind of common food, she had still reluctantly accepted it for her sake.

Shen Xiran looked around. The white wall hadn't changed, the banners on the wall hadn't changed, and even the shop owner's face hadn't changed. However, she knew in her heart that everything had changed.

The new waiter didn't know them anymore, so he formally counted them out with his notebook.

"Two bowls of beef noodles, the most spicy kind." Si Lianye took up a copper pot from the side and poured some water for the two of them.

Even when doing this kind of service, he still had the aura of someone born into a noble family.

The waiter did not dare to be negligent and took the order to go to the kitchen to order dishes. However, he was stopped by Shen Xiran with a smile, "One of the bowls is turned into a clear soup, thank you."

The waiter didn't understand, but the customer was God. He lowered his head and scribbled some modifications on the book, as if writing down her request.

When the waiter left again, Si Lianye took a sip of water. She looked at him with a strange doubt in her eyes. "I remember that you used to like eating spicy food."

"That was before." Shen Xiran also took a sip. The tea leaves in this house were always new, and the taste was very good. "Something that Division likes when he is three years old, will he still like it now?"

Si Lianye was rendered speechless by her words.

After a long moment, he finally said, "You don't have to erase your nature to forget the past."

"Division, do you think he understands me?" Shen Xiran placed the teacup on the table gently and took out a tissue to wipe the table, "Some things, if you don't like it, then you don't like it."

Si Lianye wasn't sure if she was angry with him, or if she was just thinking like this. Just to be safe, she had no choice but to stay silent.

The atmosphere at the table fell silent.

Fortunately, the noodle shop's efficiency was still as high as before. Within a few minutes, the steaming hot noodles were served on a tray.

Shen Xiran picked up a pair of chopsticks. It was fresh and fragrant in his mouth, but it lacked the thrill of the past. It felt a bit more refreshing now.

Her face was a little hot, and she felt that her eyes were a little hot. However, her tone was firm. Now that I am in so much pain, what I have to rely on can be wiped away without leaving any trace. "

After Si Lianye had escorted her to the door for dinner that night, she rarely appeared in front of her again.
