That day, Xue Xue and Chi Yu went from the car to the living room, then from the living room to the kitchen, and finally back to the bedroom from the kitchen, Xue Xue's felt her eyelids were too heavy to open, so she could only let the man carry her into the bathroom to wash.
Then she fell asleep on the bed.
The next day, when Xue Xue woke up according to the biological clock of the body, Chi Yu had already made breakfast.
White porridge and two simple but delicious side dishes.
Xue Xue thought that since Chi Yu could set up a café by himself, his skill was guaranteed.
"How does it taste?"
Chi Yu, who had cleaned up the kitchen, washed his hands and sat opposite Xue Xue. Seeing the cute appearance of the woman eating like a squirrel, he couldn't help but smile.
"Eat slowly, no one is robbing you."
Hearing this, Xue Xue glanced at him and said nothing.
In fact, Xue Xue's dining behavior was very elegant. This was due to Xue Liansong's education. Just like there were unwritten rules in every circle, if young Xue Li wanted to truly integrate into the upper circle, she must be the leader rather than a follower. It was also more important to polish small details.
Even if the beauty is eating plain meal it is still pleasing to the eye.
When Xue Xue drank the last mouthful of porridge, she realized that Chi Yu had hardly touched his chopsticks.
"Not hungry?"
"Not hungry." Seemingly happy that Xue Xue asked this, Chi Yu smiled. "Seeing you eat is sufficient."
Hearing this, Xue Xue blushed.
Chi Yu reached out and pulled out a tissue and handed it to her to wipe it before slowly picking up the hot greens and chewed them in his mouth.
Taking advantage of this gap, Xue Xue looked at Chi Yu squarely.
Perhaps it was their "physical communication" that played a role, Chi Yu looked much better than last night, at least it felt much normal.
The apartment they live in was one household per floor. They moved here after Xue Li and Chi Yu made their relationship public. Xue Li was not a woman who would compromise herself in terms of material life, and the lighting in the entire suite was very good, especially in the kitchen and the bedroom. Except for the design cabinet side, all the walls of the kitchen have transparent windows on the upper floor. At this time, the sun shone in, warm and bright.
The golden halo hit Chi Yu's side face, outlining his deep three-dimensional facial features, like a statue, even the details are exquisite and charming.
"Why do you keep looking at me?"
Xue Xue's gaze was so straightforward that Chi Yu had no choice but no longer pretend not to see.
But Xue Xue, who was caught in the act, was still very calm.
"I think you look beautiful." She smiled. "My boyfriend is so good-looking, he wanted me to see more, didn't he?"
These words undoubtedly caught Chi Yu's attention.
His ears soon turned red and Xue Xue also noticed this, silently wrote down the changes that would happen to Chi Yu's body when he was embarrassed.
It was really cute.
If she hadn't been vigilant in her heart, she might have been easily deceived by the man's appearance.
A beautiful man, a man who was easily shy, such a personality, it was difficult to associate him with the madman in Xue Li's memory.
"You seem to have changed a lot."
Just as Xue Xue was staring at Chi Yu intently, Chi Yu suddenly said such a sentence.
Although she was not frightened, Xue Xue still felt nervous for a moment.
She met Chi Yu's eyes.
When the man restrained his emotions, the atmosphere immediately cooled down.
The body tensed up again.
After taking a deep breath, Xue Xue straightened her back and met Chi Yu's gaze without flinching.
Crisis is a turning point, Xue Xue has always believed in this.
"You… haven't you changed too?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere surrounding the two could no longer be described as dull, perhaps it would be more accurate to describe it with the word 'strange'.
At this time, Chi Yu and Xue Xue did not look like lovers, but more like enemies sitting at the negotiation table, each holding favorable bargaining chips, but no one dared to take a step forward, for fear of being seen by the other side.
They were deadlocked with each other.
Time ticked by, and a second felt like a year.
Later, Chi Yu took the lead in compromising.
But it wasn't a real compromise, Xue Xue heard it from the first word he uttered.
"I don't understand what you mean, Xue Xue." Chi Yu's tone was still calm. "Are you still angry? I explained to you that we both drank that day and were unconscious, and…"
"That's not what I meant." Xue Xue interrupted him by shaking her head. "You should also know that I didn't mean that."
A lie that has been told a hundred times will not turn into a truth. It was the same for Xue Xue and the same for Chi Yu.
The result was as Xue Xue expected.
Chi Yu's expression was so calm that it could be said to be indifferent, but when Xue Xue thought that this breakfast would end in discord, Chi Yu suddenly smiled at her.
It came like a spring breeze, like peach blossoms blooming, making Xue Xue have a momentary lapse of concentration.
"Shall I take you to the company?"
*
Chi Yu took Xue Xue to the company's parking lot on the second basement floor.
The car was Xue Li's, and it was parked in her dedicated parking space. Usually, after Chi Yu brought Xue Li over, he would park the car and walk slowly to the café.
"You better drive to the café. The weather forecast said that there is a 40% chance of rain today." After unbuckling her seat belt, Xue Xue said to Chi Yu. "Anyway, if it rains, I'll ask Secretary Chen to take me back."
"No." Chi Yu played with the pendant on the keychain. "Call me after work and I'll pick you up."
Xue Xue originally wanted to refuse, after all, her off-duty time was very irregular. However, after a glance at Chi Yu, she nodded.
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Xue Xue closed the door and turned to leave, but when she passed the driver's seat, Chi Yu suddenly reached out from the window and grabbed her.
Xue Xue looked back at Chi Yu in confusion.
"Did you forget? You have to give me a kiss before you leave."
"…"
Reluctantly, Xue Xue could only gently press her lips against Chi Yu's cheek, but Chi Yu seemed dissatisfied and held her head giving her a French kiss.
Xue Xue, who was stunned, struggled belatedly. Chi Yu also didn't bother her much, and quickly let go of her.
