"Your favorite. Beef pies." Elsa smiled and went to take it with the milk and coffee. "Which one do you like?"
"Both. But I want two glasses. I don't like mixed them." With a smile, Soren walked up to her and hugged her. While saying that, he went to pour milk and coffee for himself, and only poured a cup of milk for Elsa. He said, "Drink this. It's healthier."
Elsa put the steaming beef pies on the plate and took it out. She still ate vegetables.
Yesterday's heavy mood was swept away in this good morning. Both of them enjoyed the meal. Soren looked at his watch and said, "Elsa, aren't you in a hurry to go to work today?"
"I haven't had time to tell you that I have been lent to the cultural department for a period of three months. It's not the time to go to work today, so I can take a break first."
"Really? Why?" Soren asked with great interest.
Elsa thought for a while and said, "I was borrowed once two years ago. At the end of the year, I helped to sort out and sort out all kinds of documents. There was nothing difficult to do with this job. It was all trivial. But too many things have happened in the newspaper office recently, and the workplace is a little chaotic now. I'm not fit to get involved in those muddy water. So yesterday, Mr. Chen, my former editor in chief, came to borrow me, and I agreed. I just want to take this opportunity to have a rest and reconsider my work."
She always had her own ideas about work. Soren nodded approvingly, "It makes sense. As long as you think it's the right thing, don't worry."
"Hm. By the way, do you want to go to the company today?" Elsa asked.
"Don't worry. I'll call and arrange the work. Let's have a good rest today." Then Soren made a phone call.
In the past, Elsa liked drinking coffee when she was working on her draft. Now that she saw that Soren was enjoying his coffee, she couldn't help reaching out to take his coffee cup. When she was about to drink it, Soren finished the phone call and came back to catch her. He immediately stopped her hand. As soon as Elsa was caught, she said, "The weather is good today, ha-ha."
When he was about to withdraw her hand, Soren touched her nose and said, "According to the book, you'd better not drink coffee when you are preparing for pregnancy."
"No, I didn't want to drink it. I just want to get you another glass of it after you finish it." Elsa escaped his staring and said, "And... It's not my own business to get pregnant. Then you can't drink it either."
Soren picked up the cup and drank it up, "Only this time. I won't drink it again."
Looking at the coffee cup, Elsa swallowed.
Soren handed the glass of milk to her, but she had to take it and drink it all.
Soren took her hand and put it in front of him. Her nails were clean and there was no trace of nail polish. Because the bad habit of biting nails had been changed, every nail was beautiful, and the color was red and ruddy. It was not like before that they were always bitten.
"I'll take you to eat something today," Soren said with a smile.
Before dinner, the two of them cleaned up the house, washed the clothes they had changed, and made the house spotless before going out.
Elsa had never been to this restaurant before, but Soren didn't let her order by herself. He was always considerate, so Elsa didn't listen to him when ordering.
However, when all the dishes were served, Elsa was a little surprised, because none of them were vegetable dishes, all of which were meat dishes. She was a little embarrassed. "Ren, I haven't practiced these yet. I can eat them all..."
Soren handed her the chopsticks, picked up a piece of roast pork for her, and said with a smile, "Have a try. Guess what this is."
Elsa didn't want to refuse his kindness. She picked it up. She felt a little uncomfortable when she smelled it. She put down her chopsticks and said apologetically, "Ren, I'm really sorry. I can't eat it."
"Silly girl, this is made of winter melon. It seems that it really looks like roast pork. I just heard about this restaurant a few days ago. The owner of this restaurant pushed a series of vegetables, but made them into meat dishes, so that those girls who lose weight don't need to be afraid of eating vegetables." Soren ate a piece of it with a smile, "It's really winter melon, but it does have a little meat flavor. But I have told the kitchen to try their best to reduce the meat smell."
