Chapter 53 An awkward meal at KFC
In the small town of Hengzhou in 1997, KFC was still very fashionable and high-end in the eyes of many people.
Most of the people who come here to eat are young people, such as college students and young office workers. As for the older people, their consumption concepts have not changed yet. When it comes to KFC food, they either find it too expensive or find it unhealthy. In short, they are more disdainful. .
Chen Yang occupied an empty table alone, and while waiting for someone else, he kept rejecting people who wanted to share a table.
Finally, at 6:27, Zhou Lin and Jenny Wu walked into the store together.
Like Chen Yang, the two of them also changed out of their school uniforms at this time, looking youthful and beautiful from top to bottom, giving people a brand new visual impact.
What surprised Chen Yang was that Zhou Lin did not wear her favorite pink color, but changed into an orange dress and carried a cute light-colored bag.
Jenny Wu's style is still the same, with tight high-waisted jeans paired with a trendy T-shirt, and brand-name sneakers on her feet, but she is carrying a small sports backpack.
Jenny Wu glanced around the store and immediately saw Chen Yang waving to her.
Jenny Wu said something to Zhou Lin, and then the two of them walked towards Chen Yang.
"Oh, you're quite on time, Chen Yang!" Jenny Wu spoke like a big sister.
Chen Yang replied: "I'm always on time, okay?"
After saying that, Chen Yang looked at Zhou Lin, smiled and said: "Zhou Lin, sit down!"
Jenny Wu was suddenly dissatisfied: “What about me?”
Chen Yang immediately said: "You sit down too, Jenny Wu."
Zhou Lin glanced at Chen Yang without saying anything, then nodded slightly, walked over and sat on the seat diagonally opposite Chen Yang, but Jenny Wu sat directly opposite Chen Yang.
Chen Yang was slightly startled, thinking what was going on. Under normal circumstances, Zhou Lin should be sitting directly opposite me.
Chen Yang immediately realized that the two of them sitting like this must have discussed it before coming.
After sitting down, Jenny Wu asked Chen Yang: “What do you want to eat, I’ll buy it.”
Chen Yang smiled and said, "It's all fine. I won't choose. Just order what you like."
After hearing this, Zhou Lin couldn't help but said: "How about that? I'll treat you to KFC. Of course you have to order something you like."
At this time, Chen Yang clearly felt that Zhou Lin's tone was very different from that in school.
At this time, she showed a coldness and alienation, as if she was deliberately keeping a distance from herself, and she was also deliberately avoiding eye contact.
Chen Yang still kept smiling: "It doesn't matter. I like all KFC food. I can order anything, really!"
Seeing that Chen Yang had said this, Zhou Lin thought for a moment and asked, "Then let's do it for the whole family, okay?"
"Okay!" Chen Yang readily agreed.
The next moment, Jenny Wu stood up: “I’m going to order food.”
Immediately afterwards, Chen Yang and Zhou Lin were the only two people left at the table.
Chen Yang looked at Zhou Lin quietly, but Zhou Lin didn't look at him, lowered her head and didn't speak.
After a few seconds, Chen Yang suddenly moved his buttocks and sat on the seat facing Zhou Lin.
Zhou Lin secretly panicked and secretly grasped her bag with both hands.
Chen Yang glanced at Jenny Wu in the queue, then looked at her and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why is your mood suddenly so bad?"
"No." Zhou Lin shook her head in denial, but did not dare to look at Chen Yang.
"Did I make you angry somewhere?" Chen Yang asked again.
Zhou Lin still shook her head: "No."
Chen Yang paused and asked again: "Then why did your attitude towards me suddenly change 180 degrees?"
Zhou Lin suddenly became a little nervous when she heard Chen Yang ask so directly. She couldn't help but bite her lips lightly, and then mustered up the courage to raise her head: "Really? I have always had this attitude towards you! We are just classmates and friends. In a relationship between ordinary friends, is there anything wrong with such an attitude?"
When Zhou Lin said these words, she kept holding her bag tightly with both hands. She looked calm and calm on the face, but in fact she was very nervous in her heart. Not only did her heart beat much faster, but her palms were also a little sweaty.
Chen Yang frowned immediately. He knew that Zhou Lin must have a reason for saying these words.
It's impossible that he was fine last night and suddenly changed his face inexplicably today.
Could it be that she found out about him sending Ye Shiqi to the clinic?
That must be it! She must have misunderstood herself and Ye Shiqi, otherwise, it would be impossible for her to suddenly fall out.
"Zhou Lin, can you listen to my explanation?" Chen Yang looked at Zhou Lin very seriously.
Zhou Lin did not dare to look at Chen Yang and lowered her head to avoid his gaze.
"Zhou Lin, actually last night Ye and I..."
"...Coming, coming, the freshly baked family bucket set meal is here!"
Just as Chen Yang started, Jenny Wu suddenly ran over shouting and placed a family meal set on the table.
Jenny Wu sat down and looked at the two of them, and asked curiously: "What were you talking about just now? Your expressions were so serious..."
Zhou Lin felt nervous and hurriedly shook her head in denial: "We didn't talk about anything. We were just talking about why you haven't come yet. Chen Yang and I are already hungry...right, Chen Yang?"
Zhou Lin also deliberately asked Chen Yang, as if she had some hint.
Chen Yang immediately understood that Zhou Lin was reminding himself not to say those things in front of Jenny Wu.
"Yes, we are all hungry and want to eat early." Chen Yang nodded and cooperated.
"It's not here anymore. Eat quickly." Jenny Wu said and began to distribute disposable gloves.
Chen Yang did not move, still staring at Zhou Lin.
Zhou Lin was afraid that Chen Yang would say something he shouldn't have said, so she hurriedly said: "Chen Yang, didn't you say you were hungry? Everything is here, why don't you eat?"
Jenny Wu also urged: "Yes, hurry up and eat! If you are slow, it will be gone. I will not be polite to you."
Chen Yang didn't say anything, picked up the disposable gloves and put them on, then took out a finger-sucking chicken nugget from the family bucket and ate it.
This KFC meal was quite awkward for Chen Yang, because Zhou Lin basically didn’t communicate with him, and didn’t give him a chance to communicate. She just kept chatting with Jenny Wu and discussed some topics that Chen Yang was not interested in.
Just when Chen Yang couldn't bear it any longer, Zhou Lin's bag suddenly made a beeping sound.
Zhou Lin hurriedly took off her gloves and took out the BP machine from her bag. After taking a look, she turned around and said, "Jenny, lend me your phone. It should be my mother."
Jenny Wu immediately took out a Motorola mobile phone from her backpack and handed it to Zhou Lin.
Zhou Lin answered the call as soon as she made the call.
"Mom, what's the matter?"
"........."
"Oh, Jenny and I are together. We will go back after eating..."
"........."
"I got it, Mom! We won't be too late... Yeah, I got it."
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Lin hung up the phone.
Zhou Lin returned the phone to Jenny Wu, and then said: “Jenny, my mother is urging me to go back, why don’t you come to my house later?”
