If love can be booked

Chapter 211: They met by chance at the company gate, Lu Jinchuan invited her to dinner, Shen Wanning

"Ah." With a scream, a sharp pain came from her forehead. She felt dizzy and her body fell forward involuntarily. The next second, she fell into a warm and solid embrace. She still remembered his breath and his smell. But it was no longer him. Tears wet her eyes...

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I..." She apologized in panic, her voice filled with tears, like a frightened deer.

"You don't even look at the road when you walk. I didn't expect you to have this skill." Lu Jinchuan frowned and spoke in a somewhat stiff tone. He didn't mean to be mean to her. He obviously had a good temper, so why was he mean to her?

Through the French window, his eyes were fixed on the petite figure. He had to admit that the moment he saw her, his heart was filled with unspeakable anticipation, ecstasy, and deep desire. It had been a long time since he had seen her, and during this time, his longing for her had been eroding his heart like a tide. Had she decided to give up on him? And she, stupidly staring at the sky, didn't even notice that he had stayed there for a long time. And this woman still kept saying that she loved him?

"Jin...Jinchuan." Shen Wanning murmured the name. If she thought of him, he would appear? She closed her eyes tightly, then slowly opened them. He did not disappear. It was not Jinchuan. It was him. She knew it from his stinky expression.

"General Manager. Sorry, I didn't see anyone in front of me." Shen Wanning stuttered, her voice getting smaller and smaller, until in the end, almost only she could hear it. Didn't you see anyone in front of you?

Lu Jinchuan frowned and stared at Shen Wanning coldly, obviously not satisfied with her explanation. He was so big and in front of her, and she actually told him that she didn't see it?

"I...I'll go in first." Shen Wan Ning wanted to slip away. It had been a long time since they last met in the elevator. She tried her best to tell herself every day not to think about him, not to think about him, not to think about him, and that everything would change slowly. But she found that it was not that she didn't miss him, but that this longing followed her like a shadow and never stopped.

"I heard that you like me very much?" Lu Jinchuan's deep and magnetic voice suddenly sounded, like a thunder in Shen Wanning's ears. Her body trembled violently, and her feet seemed to be nailed to the spot, unable to move at all. However, facing this sudden question, she did not speak, but looked at his side quietly. Did he know what he was saying? Didn't he not allow her to like him secretly?

Just as Shen Wanning was lost in thought, Lu Jinchuan spoke again to break the silence: "I'm hungry, eat with me." He just wanted to find an opportunity to get to know her better. Maybe this way she wouldn't affect his mood, and he wouldn't worry about her anymore.

Time passed by, and seeing Shen Wanning still standing there in a daze, not moving at all, Lu Jinchuan frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt and uneasiness surged in his heart. He couldn't help but urge her, "Are you not leaving yet?"

Who made her say that? Cold-blooded, heartless, selfish, and indifferent.

Shen Wanning looked at him silently and got into the car quietly.

The car was silent, no one spoke. He drove quietly, she thought of him quietly, as if they had never been apart. Unconsciously, mist welled up on her eyelids, using the flowing scenery outside the window to distract herself.

"Flowering Season for You" theme restaurant.

They still sat at the main dining table, surrounded by gorgeous butterfly flowers, but could he still understand the meaning of the carefully selected butterfly flowers on his main dining table?

"Do you still remember the meaning of butterfly flowers?" She asked cautiously. He had forgotten her, and even the plot of their story. How could he awaken his dormant memory?

“I don’t remember.” Does the butterfly flower have any meaning?

"Is there any special meaning?" Is it related to her?

"No." If you've forgotten it, why mention it?

At this time, Lu Jinchuan casually ordered: "Bring a normal meal." Since he made this request last time, this restaurant has not put even a single chili seed in his food! He was so angry that he almost overturned the entire restaurant! He couldn't help but wonder inwardly, when did he stop eating chili?

But the restaurant staff also felt aggrieved. After all, he had clearly stated that from now on, no more chili peppers would be added to his food. Who said he was the boss?

Miss Shen is here today? We came together...

I just don't know why, I always feel that the atmosphere between the two of them is a little weird, not like before, talking and laughing, close and intimate. When Lu Jinchuan looked at Miss Shen, his eyes were no longer filled with doting, and his face had lost its former gentle expression.

Did they really break up?

"Okay." A normal meal? But I was a little confused: should I add chili or not?

"Wan Ning, welcome. We haven't seen you for a long time. We all miss you so much." He Xinran's face was full of smiles, but in fact, no one was very clear about what happened between her and someone. They just vaguely heard that the two had broken up.

"Thank you." Yes, how could she not miss this place? The good times she had spent here were still vivid in her mind.

"Wan Ning, what would you like to drink? Coffee? Can we try the new Black Forest?" He Xinran asked enthusiastically. He would laugh heartily when she was around before, but now that she was by his side, why was the atmosphere so sad that it made him feel like suffocating?

"Well, OK. Thank you." She nodded slightly in response. At that time, he didn't like her drinking coffee, always saying that drinking coffee was bad for the stomach. So he often drank her coffee secretly when she wasn't paying attention, forcing her to drink juice instead in the end.

"Please wait a moment." The boss has a bad temper, so they are all very cautious...

Are they familiar with her taste?

A smile appeared on her lips. No doubt, she was once again lost in the memory of that special person...

The table was full of dishes. Suddenly, I remembered what he said about the usual meals? Did he mean chili peppers? All the soups and waters seemed to have chili peppers. Yes, he used to love spicy food. Every dish had to have chili peppers to satisfy his discerning taste buds. However, she was the only one who couldn't stand the stimulation brought by chili peppers...

"Why? Don't like it? It's not your taste?" Lu Jinchuan asked with a smile, a hint of temptation in his words. He was eager to find out what caused her to change her taste in food. In fact, he himself was not the kind of person who couldn't live without chili peppers. He was just used to adding a little chili peppers to his meals to enhance the flavor.

"No." She shook her head gently, her voice as low as a mosquito. At this moment, she suddenly realized that she had ignored his taste preferences for so long. In the past, when they had dinner together, in order to take care of her inability to eat spicy food, there was hardly any trace of chili on the table. Now, looking back, that thoughtfulness and care was so deep and delicate...

He softened his taste to suit hers. How could she deserve such a favor?

I'm sorry, Jinchuan, I'm sorry, that's all I can say.

Once, he said that whatever she liked, he liked, and she foolishly believed him.

"Delicious." Shen Wanning took a bite of the dish and put it into her mouth. In an instant, a strong spicy taste swept over her like a surging wave, and she was caught off guard and choked.

Even though her face was flushed and her stomach was aching, she still endured the discomfort and kept saying, "It's delicious. It's so delicious." Because for her, being able to taste the same dish with him again, such simple happiness was enough to make her satisfied.

"If you don't like it, don't eat it. Why do you force yourself like this?" Lu Jinchuan saw that she was obviously very uncomfortable, but she insisted on eating. What on earth was she trying to be so stubborn about? And what was he insisting on? What did he want to prove?

However, she still said stubbornly: "No, it's delicious. Really delicious, really delicious." But the tears that kept rolling down her face and her lips that were red from the irritation of the chili pepper had already exposed her true feelings.

Lu Jinchuan couldn't bear it any longer, so he reached out and grabbed her hand that was about to pick up the food, and raised his voice slightly and said, "Shen Wanning, are you stupid? You obviously don't like it, so why do you torture yourself like this?"

She bit her lower lip hard, trying not to cry out loud, and answered with a sob, "Yes, I'm stupid. I'm the dumbest, biggest fool." She didn't dare to recall the past, for fear of touching the past, which would make her feel how pretentious and pathetic she was.

"I don't even know what he likes to eat, and I don't know how I lost him. Tell me, am I stupid?" As soon as she finished speaking, tears burst out like a flood, instantly covering her originally delicate face. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether the tears on her face were because of the spicy food, or because the sadness deep in her heart had already flooded like a tide, making her unable to suppress the urge to cry? She was just a big fool.

"Did he... hurt you deeply?" Hearing her such sad words, even the usually calm and composed Lu Jinchuan couldn't help but be moved. Especially when he learned from her that she had lost the person who was so important to her so easily, he felt an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart.

"No... No. It's my fault, it's my fault." Although tears continued to fall, Shen Wanning still shook her head stubbornly, refusing to admit that the other party had ever caused her any pain. And for some reason, at this moment, she suddenly wanted to eat some extremely spicy food. Perhaps only that strong stimulation could slightly alleviate the pain deep in her heart, or maybe she simply hoped to use the tears caused by the spicy taste to cover up her true sadness.

"Stop eating." Seeing Shen Wanning wolfing down the food in front of her without caring about her image, Lu Jinchuan finally couldn't hold back. He stretched out his hand and grabbed her arm, forcibly pulled her up from her seat, and then dragged her out the door without saying anything. It must be said that this woman always has a magical power that can easily make him completely lose his original reason and calmness. In fact, letting her try these spicy foods in the first place was a trap he deliberately set up in order to find out the truth. But who would have thought that in the end, he was disturbed by her every move...

"Don't walk so fast, my feet hurt." Shen Wanning shouted breathlessly while trying to keep up with Lu Jinchuan who was striding forward in front of her.

Hearing the shouts from behind, Lu Jinchuan finally stopped and glanced back at Shen Wanning. When his eyes fell on the pair of high heels on her feet, he couldn't help but frowned and said unhappily, "Are you stupid?"

"Why are you so loud?" Shen Wanning pouted and muttered. He was always mean to her...

"It's none of your business what happens to me. You don't remember me." She shook off his hand, not needing his deliberate gentleness to please her. Didn't he say that he wouldn't fall in love with her? Didn't he say that he wouldn't let her into his life? Didn't he say that she wasn't allowed to think about him? Didn't he say that she should stay away from his sight?

"I don't want to remember you. If possible, I also want to lose my memory like you." Leaving a person on the edge of sweetness is a painful torture.

"I don't love you, I've tried hard not to love you, why do you come to disturb my life again?" She murmured to herself. She had warned herself countless times that she must completely erase this man from her heart, but every time he appeared in front of her again, the defenses she had built with great difficulty collapsed in an instant.

"It's obviously you, it's obviously you. But I'm not allowed to love you, I can't think about you, do you know where my heart is? It's right here, it hurts, it really hurts." Shen Wanning cried and accused him, knowing that it was not his fault. But why did he come to provoke her again? Didn't he say that he never wanted to see her again? Why did he give himself hope? I don't want the despair after hope...

Seeing Shen Wanning looking lonely and helpless, Lu Jinchuan hugged her, wanting to give her warmth. He didn't want to see her like this, as if she was the only one left in the world, with no one to rely on and no place of her own.

Lu Jinchuan's heart suddenly tightened, and a strong desire to protect her surged into his heart. He walked forward without hesitation, opened his arms, and gently embraced Shen Wanning in his arms.

During this long, sleepless night, his thoughts surged like the tide, constantly hitting his heart that had long since sunk in love.

There is a feeling that I don't know how to give up, but you have already let it go

What was the reason that made you leave first, and why did I choose to turn back?

When I turned around, I didn't see your face

Because the figure in the distance is still so familiar to me

Tears, falling carelessly

It's definitely not because of you, it's just because you took away the scenery around me

The lights in the distance are still bright

And I still follow the footsteps of the night

Perhaps, only in such a dark night, I will not be lonely

Perhaps, only in such a dark night, you can't see my tears

Perhaps, only in a dark night like this, will I deeply understand that you are irreplaceable.

A home alone, a night alone, she is always in my mind...

Did she know what she was doing? She couldn't eat spicy food, and he could tell from her expression. Why didn't she refuse? Didn't she know how to refuse? What on earth was she playing with herself? Sympathy or self-abuse? Did she think he would care about her? But damn, he cared that much.

Did she love him so much? Did she love him so much that she lost herself? Did he love her too? Did he love her like she did? Was love what he once pursued?

What was he like? Was he a free lover?

She actually has her own concerns buried deep inside, and she is a very quiet girl. But what kind of power makes her make such a sacrifice and risk everything?

I occasionally heard Secretary He complain that he was not like this when she was there. What was he like? What was he like when she was there? Did he look like in the photo? Thinking of the photo, I wonder where Mrs. Wu put it? I opened the drawer and found nothing special, just a ring, for men.

Ring? The size of his ring finger. He gently played with it in his palm. It was very cheap, probably bought from a street stall. Did he buy it or did she give it to him?

The drawer in the study is a place close to memories.

Shen Wanning? He had heard of this name. She said, even if you don’t know a woman named Shen Wanning, Shen Wanning? Have you forgotten Shen Wanning when she was a child?

She asked him if he remembered the meaning of the butterfly flowers on the main table. He didn't remember. Although he could clearly recall many details related to it, the reason why he wanted to open this restaurant and the carefully arranged decorations, like sand blown away by the wind, slipped away from his memory quietly, leaving only a blank.

On the bookshelf, "If Love Can Be Booked?" lies there quietly, like a sleeping spirit.

Gently open the title page, and what comes into view are lines of beautiful and delicate words. If love can be reserved, I am willing to wait, just for you, just my love, have you made an appointment?

Jinchuan, I love you.

Shen Wanning, what should I do with you?
