…
In the end, Andwa took the two high school students to a high-end restaurant in the city.
"Three seats."
Andwa said solemnly to the young lady at the door.
The latter saw that it was Andwa.
She then happily led him into the most luxurious private room in the shop.
After all, it was a high-end restaurant.
Before entering the private room, there were considerate services such as taking off shoes, changing slippers, washing hands, and being served.
Boom and Andwa seemed to be used to it.
Prunus was not necessarily so.
Her family did not use tatami mats. She had to kneel for a long time and her legs might cramp.
Moreover, the unscientific prices on the menu were the same. Just looking at them made her feel uneasy.
By the way, Prunus and Boom sat on the same side at this square table.
Directly opposite the two of them was Andwa.
To be honest, she had been thinking about where to sit for a long time. In order to avoid an awkward choice, Prunus chose to sit down when the four seats were empty and let the other two choose.
Then Boom chose to sit next to her, and Andwa had to sit opposite.
It really did seem like an awkward situation.
It was like a strange scene of meeting parents. Even Prunus, who had always been slow, felt that something was wrong.
Maybe it was because Andwa was sitting in front of her. She had to be smart for a long time.
Hong also saw that Bai Jian was not calm, so he thoughtfully brought the menu to her side. "Bai Jian, please take a look at the menu.
What do you want to eat? "
Bai Jian blinked his eyes and was shocked. He touched the back of his head and said, "I'll be just like you!"
Boom did not mind.
He handed the menu to Andwa.
And Andwa also made a decision in silence.
He called the waiter.
Andwa was calm, "I want a bowl of celestial rice."
Although he liked his son very much,
He was not very interested in the light buckwheat noodles that his son liked. He liked to eat heavy food since he was a child.
Boom said, "Two golden handmade buckwheat noodles set.
One of the portions is extra large. "On the other side, Hong unceremoniously ordered the most expensive dish in the restaurant.
Prunus's mother was so shocked that she let out an "oh". Was it really that cruel?
She looked at Prunus nervously, and Andwa noticed the troubled look on her face. He crossed his arms and asked, "What's wrong, little girl?"
Prunus trembled. At this point, she would be dead if she didn't say anything. She closed her eyes and said, "I'm sorry. Although I said I wanted the same thing, I can't afford that …"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course, Dad will pay for this meal." Hong calmly interrupted.
(Andrew: …)
Prunus was once again startled. Three seconds later, it sat down on the ground again. "That's even worse!"
Andwa was speechless as he crossed his arms and looked at the startled girl. On the other hand, the waitress who was in charge of taking orders burst into laughter. As it was a little abrupt, it even attracted Andwa's attention.
The waitress immediately apologized and explained, "I, I'm sorry. I saw the news in Shinjuku and recognized Little Bai Dala. I didn't expect her to be so cute."
Prunus:????
Andwa's face was stiff. Someone who recognized her already appeared?
Prunus: … QAQ
The waitress continued, "… Mr. Andwa really takes care of Miss Bai Dala. Everyone saw the photo of him hugging Miss Bai Dala at the scene of the accident in Shinjuku."
After saying that, the waitress cupped her face with her hands and made an intoxicated expression.
When the waitress said that, both Prunus and Hong's expression changed. Only Andwa remained calm.
Prunus did not dare to ask, but Hong said with a hostile expression, "… Dad, you hugged Prunus?"
Andwa crossed his arms and replied casually, "… Yes."
Prunus trembled.
Hong frowned.
Andwa: … What's wrong?
"It's said that Little Bai Dala was injured and fainted. It was Mr. Andwa who held her. Look, the photo is here. It was hailed as Mr. Andwa's cutest photo of the year."
With that, the waitress smiled and handed over the photo. At first, no one wanted to take it, but Hong took it without saying anything and stared at the screen.
Prunus also leaned over and saw that Andwa was not really "hugging her". He just put his hand behind her waist to support her. Prunus breathed a sigh of relief.
— I almost thought that I caused Mr. Andwa a lot of trouble.
"There's also a photo of the princess being carried to the ambulance, but it's in my colleague's hands!"
(Chirp) "The young lady added.
Andwa's expression was calm.
Hong's expression froze.
— Prunus died on the spot.
"Hehe, Little Bai Dala is so cute."
The waitress blinked and smiled, "I'll get your autograph later … So, what do you want to eat?"
Prunus: … … (Stunned).
Andwa ignored Prunus who was blowing bubbles and calmly made a decision, "Give her a set of golden buckwheat noodles."
Prunus: … … (!!!)
That's too expensive!
Andwa: Stare calmly.
Prunus trembled: … … I, I, I didn't say anything.
The waitress smiled and said, "Got it." Then, she skipped away.
After the commotion, Prunus trembled and got up from the table. She looked at Andwa and said, "… Thank you, Mr. Andwa, for your treat."
"It's nothing."
He crossed his arms and said with a straight face, "You, on the other hand, are too stiff in the face of the public's reaction." As he spoke, the flame that had been extinguished long ago suddenly burned again.
"… … S-S-S-Sorry!" Did he suddenly start to experience the workplace?!
She couldn't do anything about Andwa's burning desire mode!
"Don't apologize." Andwa still crossed his arms. How could a hero be defeated like this?
"I'm sorry!" Prunus apologized subconsciously with tears in her eyes.
"Didn't I tell you not to apologize?" Andwa frowned slightly.
Prunus came back to her senses and said, "I'm sorry …" She hurriedly covered her mouth.
Andwa: "… …"
Hong had been silently watching his father's obsession with Prunus. His expression was a little strange.
He was the one his father was eating with. Why was he suddenly teaching Prunus?
He didn't know if it was his imagination … but from what he could see, his father seemed to be in a good mood.
He thought that perhaps in this relaxed atmosphere, he could talk to his father better.
Hong calmly joined the conversation. "You've been a great help by giving us the tickets today."
Andwa: "Oh, it's nothing."
Hong: "… …" I've succeeded in chatting with him. I'm so awesome.
Andwa: "… …"
Bai Jian: … So didn't the topic die without warning again?!
… …
After thinking about it, Prunus decided to use all her strength to continue this awkward conversation. She smiled and looked at Hong. "… … Oh, Bang King seems to like soba noodles very much!"
"Yes, I like to eat it." Hong looked down and replied.
"You eat soba noodles almost every time for lunch?" Prunus blinked.
"Yes, the handmade soba noodles in Xiong Ying's cafeteria are also very delicious." Hong nodded.
Prunus had a hard time with Hong's sentence ending with a period, but she still tearfully asked, "Then … do you have any recommended restaurants?"
Hong was silent for a few seconds before saying calmly, "The Kanda Noodle Shop in Akihabara, the Buckwheat Pavilion in Kagurazaka, the Buckwheat Flowstone in Ginza, and the Jade Smile in Harajuku."
After thinking about it, she added seriously, "I've visited all the famous soba noodle shops in Tokyo."
Bai Jian was so scared that he clapped his hands together. "This is already beyond the level of ordinary people who like buckwheat noodles!"
When Andwa heard that Hong had a habit of eating soba noodles whenever she was free, he said with a straight face, "Eating soba noodles is not healthy at all."
"No, soba noodles are also very healthy."
Hong furrowed his brows, and for some reason, he started to nag. "The vitamin D1 and B2 in buckwheat noodles are 3-20 times more than that of wheat flour. The most important nutritional features of buckwheat noodles are niacin and rutin, which are rarely found in ordinary foods. These two substances can reduce blood lipids and serum cholesterol, and have important preventive and therapeutic effects on hypertension and heart disease. There are many people who have been cured of cardiovascular diseases by eating buckwheat noodles.
Moreover, soba noodles contain more minerals, especially phosphorus, iron, and magnesium. These can also maintain the health of the human cardiovascular system and the hematopoietic system.
”
Andwa: … … Sticking.jpg
Prunus, on the other hand, was dumbfounded for a while. Seeing that Andwa didn't know how to react, Prunus laughed and said, "Buckwheat, buckwheat noodles are amazing!"
"Yeah, you're very good," Hong said in the same tone that he used when he said to Prunus, "I know you're very good."
Prunus: … Complicated feelings.
After testing the boundaries of awkwardness for a while, the Golden Buckwheat Noodle Set was finally served. Boom's explanation of the Golden Buckwheat Noodle Set echoed in his mind. Prunus smiled awkwardly and began to eat the noodles again.
"Prunus, when eating soba noodles, you have to suck hard and make a sound."
"Okay, okay …"
"Dad doesn't eat soba noodles? What a pity."
"…"
Inexplicably, Soba Noodles became the MVP of the dinner. After they finished their dinner with a grateful heart, it was time for the two of them to go back to Xiong Ying.
After drinking too much tea, Hong went to the bathroom before paying the bill. When she noticed that, only Prunus and Andwa were left in the room.
Prunus looked at Andwa awkwardly. Yes, finally, she wasn't trembling in fear anymore. After all, the three of them had been sitting face to face for a long time. She was used to staying in the same space as Andwa.
With that thought in mind, Bai Jian smiled at Andwa and said, "Well … I really have to thank you, Mr. Andwa."
"It's okay."
Andwa looked at Prunus, closed his eyes, and looked at Hong's seat. At this moment, Prunus remembered what happened today.
Andwa had been trying to get close to Hong, but they couldn't talk much because Prunus was beside them.
Prunus felt guilty again. "I'm sorry. If I didn't catch up with you, you would have been able to talk to Bang King more."
Andwa was stunned. At this moment, he didn't have any personality. He looked like an ordinary uncle. He looked at Prunus's guilty expression and shook his head. "No, Bombardment Scorch and I don't talk much." As he said that, his expression showed that he didn't know what to do.
Prunus was stunned. She thought of Hong's ability to shut him up. She smiled and shook her head. "Maybe it's because he's uncomfortable with his father. It's like puberty."
However, before she ate with the father and son, she didn't expect Hong to be so awkward.
Andwa didn't say anything. He could tell that Prunus was trying to comfort him.
In fact, during this meal, it wasn't as if he didn't see the young lady's efforts to smooth things over and continue the conversation.
She thought for a moment, looked at the empty plate, and suddenly said, "Jiao Leng and I haven't eaten like this for many years. It's okay, today is a rare occasion."
"There will be many more opportunities in the future."
Prunus tilted her head. She didn't know why Andwa, who was looking down and talking in a low voice, was unexpectedly cute. But when the word "cute" appeared in her mind, she quickly suppressed the thought. No, no, how could she say that Andwa was "cute"?
"Not necessarily. Bombardment Scorch doesn't want to get along with me." So if Prunus wanted to invite him out for dinner again, he might be rejected directly.
Andwa's face was expressionless. But in Prunus' eyes, he looked a little depressed.
"… Ah, no, no," Prunus shook her head and said, "Bang King must be trying to get along with Mr. Andwa."
"Is that so?" Andwa's tone was still flat. He didn't comment on Prunus' words.
"Hmm …" Prunus scratched the back of her head.
"Then I'll look forward to it." Andwa looked down and smiled.
Looking at the gentle smile on Andwa's face, Bai Jian was slightly startled. His nervousness gradually disappeared without a trace. Right now, Andwa was just a father who did not know how to get along with his child.
Although she had heard that Andwa used to mistreat Hong, at this moment, he was trying to make up for the past.
Was this a blessing for Hong?
He was trying to accept it.
Maybe after many years, this serious uncle would be able to smile more often.
Bai Jian's gaze gradually softened, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.
Andwa looked at the silly smiling child in front of her. He couldn't help but recall the scene of her crying after the Shinjuku incident.
This child, although her behavior was stupid and her brain often couldn't react, at least, she was someone who could make people feel comfortable and contagious.
And the more he looked at her, the more he found her to be reliable, just like a certain someone.
She was the opposite of him and Andwa.
"… Thinking about it, Bombardment Scorch should be able to benefit a little from being friends with you." After thinking for a long time, Andwa suddenly looked down and said.
"Huh?" Prunus didn't hear what Andwa said clearly. She blinked her eyes and looked at him.
"Nothing."
Andwa habitually crossed his arms and suddenly asked a special question, "Little girl, what kind of people are your parents?"
He wanted to know what kind of parents could raise such a gentle child.
If he could, he would even like to meet the parents of this stupid child. If he could learn a little from them, his children would be closer to him.
Not for himself, but for his children and wife. He wanted to be someone who could make them feel comfortable, not like a thorn in their hearts.
Prunus was stunned for a moment, then she smiled, "They are very good heroes."
Andwa paused for a moment before continuing, "Is that why you want to be a hero?"
Prunus blinked and nodded with a smile, "I like my parents the most. To be honest, I think they are better heroes than Mr. Andwa!"
Andwa didn't comment. A year had passed. At this moment, who was the best hero was no longer the most important thing in his heart. He only wanted to do his best to protect the peace … and his family. Thinking of this, he let go of his crossed arms and casually let them hang by his side.
His attitude suddenly relaxed, "I also want to be the best hero in the hearts of Bombardment Scorch … and his brothers."
Recently, he even felt that as long as he could be the best hero in the hearts of his children and Leng Xin, then he would be the most powerful person in the world.
"That … one day, I'll definitely succeed."
Prunus looked down and smiled at Andwa. Although he didn't ignite his personality, she still felt warm in the room, "As long as your family is still in front of you, as long as both sides want to maintain the relationship, then you will definitely be connected."
Andwa didn't look at her, but listened to every word she said. Would it be like this?
Hearing the little girl's words, he suddenly felt that he could succeed.
Maybe not this year, not next year, but one day, he could be together with his family again.
Everything that he had destroyed, he could use these hands … not as Andwa, but as Bombardment Scorch, to gradually repair it.
"Thank you, little girl," Andwa said calmly.
Bai Jian's face also broke into a smile.
— As for Hong, who had been standing outside the room, he also fell into deep thought.
"One day …?" Hong imagined Prunus' expression when she said this, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
Then he would look forward to it.
… By the way, he missed the opportunity to go in.
…
