No matter now or in the future, Han Songlin has always thought that the noodles in Yuechi are really delicious. Just walk into any shop and the taste is pretty good.
Especially now, the taste is authentic and genuine.
Noodle shops nowadays can't just be opened casually; because there aren't that many customers, if you want to make money, you have to have a special feature.
It is most difficult to create a special feature.
Tang Yan's posture of eating noodles was not as low as imagined; instead, it gave a person a flattering feeling, making one's heart beat faster when they saw it.
Because of the lowered head, Han Songlin was even able to peer through the collar and catch a glimpse of a touch of snow-white.
That was skin that had not seen the sun for many years, as white as snow and jade.
'It is, isn't it!'
Han Songlin suddenly had this thought in his head, and the feeling of the delicious-looking noodles suddenly went flat.
He finished eating quickly, reached for his wallet, and then paused.
He didn't seem to have any money on him!
How could he, with no money, run into a noodle shop, order a big bowl of noodles, and then finish it in no time?
He had to say that this was the first time Han Songlin had encountered such a situation.
In the future, no matter what, he could go without anything, but if he didn't have his phone on him, he would immediately notice.
In fact, every few minutes, people will take out their phones to play with them for a bit, as if they feel something is missing if they don't check their phones.
They just want to check the time, read a message, or reply to a message.
Taking a deep breath, if he went to the boss himself and said he didn't have any money, would the boss let him go first?
Or would he at least put his watch up as collateral?
Tang Yan looked at Tang Yan, wondering if the girl had any money on her.
Tang Yan finished eating quickly, wiped her lips with a tissue, and then saw Han Songlin looking at her.
They locked eyes, but neither said a word!
Neither of them got up to pay.
'Pay!'
Tang Yan said with wide eyes, 'I don't have any money!'
'If you don't have any money, why did you come in and eat?'
'I followed you in.'
Han Songlin said, 'I spent all my money on you!'
'I...'
Yes!
Tang Yan really remembered that she saw Han Songlin give the money to He Gui.
She had no money, what should she do now?
When she saw Han Songlin get up, Tang Yan also got up, and then ran straight out of the restaurant, disappearing in an instant.
Han Songlin was a little taken aback. What's wrong with this girl, running away like that!
'Boss, I'm sorry, it's like this, I was in a hurry when I came out, I didn't bring any money with me, can I pawn this watch with you for now, I'll go back and get the money later and redeem it!' Han Songlin said, and took off the watch from his wrist.
Han Songlin really didn't know how much the watch was worth.
But compared to the price of two bowls of noodles, it must be much higher.
The owner, a middle-aged man, heard what Han Songlin said and smiled, waving his hand and saying, 'It's fine, you can keep wearing the watch. Just come by and pay me when you have time!'
'Well, I'm really sorry, I'll bring the money over right away!'
After leaving the noodle shop, Han Songlin looked left and right and saw Tang Yan standing under a tree, hiding and assessing the situation.
'You have the money?' Seeing that Han Songlin had come out fine, Tang Yan let out a long sigh of relief and was speechless. If you had the money, you, a big man, could have just given it to me directly.
You made me do all this.
Han Songlin: 'Next time, if we need to run, I'll run first, and you'll cover our escape!'
Tang Yan didn't react for a long time. This man, what's wrong with him.
However, Tang Yan quickly smiled again.
The way a man looks when he's angry is so cute.
Trotting along, Tang Yan continued to keep up with Han Songlin. She was determined to stick with him.
Han Songlin looked at Tang Yan, who was keeping up with him, and didn't say anything.
'Aren't you going home?'
Tang Yan was silent for a long time, and the smile on her face faded. 'I don't have a home!'
No home?
Anyone who says that must have a home.
Did you have a fight with your family?
Han Songlin didn't want to open up someone's wounds, and it seemed that Tang Yan didn't want to talk about it either.
When they arrived at the building's entrance, Han Songlin hesitated. Should he just bring Tang Yan straight to her door?
'Wait here!'
'Oh!' Tang Yan didn't ask any questions, and just stood there waiting.
Han Songlin opened the door and saw Liu Yuyan feeding Han Yufei.
Han Yufei had now been weaned, and breast milk was no longer able to provide her with sufficient nutrition.
'The food is in the pot!'
Han Songlin: 'I just ate outside.'
Saying this, Han Songlin went straight into the bedroom, took a wad of money from the drawer and put it in his pocket.
Seeing Han Songlin rushing off again, Liu Yuyan asked doubtfully, "You're going out again?'
'Ah, something's come up!" he said, and took the car keys with him.
Liu Yuyan didn't care, usually, Han Songlin was busy, it was normal.
'So, in the afternoon, I'll go pick up Han Ting, or will you go?'
Han Songlin thought for a moment and said, 'I'll be right back.'
It won't take long to give the money.
Han Songlin went downstairs and saw Tang Yan standing there obediently, kicking the ground under her feet out of boredom.
'Get in the car!'
Tang Yan got into the car dazedly. She knew that Han Songlin had money, and that someone who could take out a few thousand yuan at once could not possibly be short of money.
However, she had never thought that Han Songlin actually had a car.
The car looked a little old.
Well, the main thing was that Han Songlin had not done much to fix the car.
Han Songlin did not really care for the car.
Usually, he would just do the necessary maintenance, such as changing the engine oil.
When it gets really dirty, he washes it.
Tang Yan got into the car a little awkwardly, sat down and looked around at the interior decor.
There wasn't much, just a lucky charm and a picture of the chairman hanging under the rearview mirror, as well as a picture of some Bodhisattva.
These days, car owners like to hang things in their cars, and the usefulness of this is needless to say.
Han Songlin drove to the front of the noodle shop, got out and paid for the noodles.
The boss was very polite and said that the money could be paid at any time.
Han Songlin spoke to the boss for a while and said that he would pay the money as soon as possible. For Han Songlin, this was a solved problem.
For the boss of the noodle shop, he didn't have to worry about saying that he hadn't let someone put his watch up as collateral in the shop that day.
The two bowls of noodles didn't cost much, but it must have been very embarrassing.
Han Songlin understood this.
Sitting in the car, Han Songlin fastened his seat belt and looked at Tang Yan.
'Where's your home?'
'At the foot of Shuyuan Mountain.'
It really is a small world!
Earlier, Han Songlin was still discussing Shuyuan Mountain with Zhou Youwei.
Now, he met someone who lives at the foot of Shuyuan Mountain.
Is it fate?
Maybe.
Well, that's not important. What's important is that Tang Yan was willing to tell Han Songlin where her home is.
Earlier, she had said she didn't have a home.
Han Songlin parked the car at the foot of Shuyuan Mountain. The whole mountain was covered in lush greenery, and century-old trees could be seen everywhere.
A flight of stone steps led straight up to the top.
Han Songlin didn't know how many steps there were; he had never counted them, but there should be two or three hundred.
'That's enough, you can go back now!'
Tang Yan: 'Brother, can you walk back with me?'
Seeing Tang Yan's pitiful appearance, Han Songlin sighed, thinking to himself that he was too kind.
'Let's go!'
