Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 2224: Chapter 2219: Dr. Hua, You’re Not Honest!

As Qin Jian and An Hao had just stepped through the door, they saw Yuan Yunong walking towards them, ready to pay and leave.

An Hao looked over towards the seats and noticed Hua Jin was missing.

If Hua Jin was gone, how were they going to play out this scene?

”I’ll go next door to buy something! You go in first.” An Hao said.

Qin Jian nodded and walked straight towards Yuan Yunong, with a rare smile on his face: ”Professor Yuan, why are you dining here?”

”Yes! What a coincidence that you’re here too! But I’ve finished eating and am ready to pay now!” Yuan Yunong exchanged a few pleasantries, preparing to leave, but Qin Jian stopped her.

”Professor Yuan, please don’t go! I think there’s always been a misunderstanding between us. Fortunately, my wife is in a decent mood today; I’d like to take this chance for you to help explain things to her.”

”Well...” Yuan Yunong hesitated.

”What’s wrong? Is it inconvenient for you?”

Yuan Yunong pointed at the watch on her wrist and said, ”It’s getting late, and it’s quite far from the courtyard here. I’m worried...”

”No need to worry. I drove here. You can come back with us.” Qin Jian said with a smile, ”Please, Professor Yuan, I think you wouldn’t want my wife and I to constantly be at odds, would you? It really gives me a headache!”

Yuan Yunong thought about how Hua Jin had already left, and given the situation, she decided she could sit for a few minutes and then find a chance to leave: ”Alright then.”

”Great. Let’s find a place to sit. An Hao went to buy something and should be back soon!”

An Hao simply bought two bags of sunflower seeds at the store next door and stood at the entrance waiting for Hua Jin.

This restaurant had only one exit, and she didn’t believe Hua Jin wouldn’t leave through it.

Meanwhile, Hua Jin saw Yuan Yunong and Qin Jian sitting down, but still hadn’t seen An Hao. He thought, An Hao wouldn’t keep waiting outside all the time, right?

It’s more reassuring to wait for An Hao to come in.

Unexpectedly, An Hao was waiting for him outside.

The two were waiting for each other, waiting for quite a long time.

If usually Hua Jin had the patience to wait, today he was a bit restless.

An Hao’s time outside seemed overly long, he recalled prior events, thinking An Hao should have seen him.

Their eyes seemed to have collided for a fleeting moment.

So now that Qin Jian had made Yuan Yunong stay, what was An Hao doing? Was she really waiting for him?

Hua Jin wandered around the restroom entrance, attracting attention from many passersby.

”I say, why are you always blocking the door? If you need the bathroom, go in; if not, then hurry up and leave! You’re in the way!” Someone finally spoke up, seeing him standing there.

Hua Jin furrowed his brow and decided to leave immediately.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of Nanguofeng’s gate, without having a chance to look around, he heard An Hao’s voice: ”Doctor Hua!”

”Doctor An?” Hua Jin turned his head to the left and saw An Hao. He smiled and said, ”What a coincidence! You’re here for a meal too?”

”Doctor Hua, you’re not being honest!” An Hao chuckled, ”I saw you earlier; I wanted to ask you to dinner tonight, but you turned me down, saying you were meeting an old friend. Looks like your old friend is a woman!”

”Yes, is Doctor An getting jealous?” Hua Jin smiled, diverting the topic, ”I just saw your husband go in! You should hurry in too. I’ve finished eating, so I should head back!”
