eyes, still innocent from waking up, were undeniably alluring."How much longer do you think you can keep relying on this"Wen Man blushed and quickly stood up.Ho Shao-ting picked up his jacket and put...Ho Xi was quite tired after working for several days.
He didn't even pack his luggage. He kicked off his shoes and went straight to the bedroom, falling asleep face-first.
When night fell, she woke up.
The scent of food drifted from her nose, and the bedside lamp in the bedroom was on, casting a dim, yellow glow that made it hard to tell if it was morning or night.
A series of footsteps sounded, Zhang Chongguang leaning against the door.
"I bet you've been craving Chinese food these days!"
He spoke softly, and his whole demeanor was gentle. In a white shirt and black trousers, he seemed to belong here, as if he had never left.
Ho Xi stared at him intently.
Her expression was somewhat lost, not as usual.
Zhang Chongguang walked in, bent down and kissed her lips: "Surprised to see me"
Hoshie hugged him around the neck.
She tilted her head back, her long black hair cascading down her shoulders, soft and alluring.
"How are you at home"
"Don't you want me here"
Actually, that's what he was thinking, but Hoxie couldn't bring himself to say it.
Zhang Chongguang smiled: "I'll go after having dinner with you!"
He was so decisive, Huo Xi felt oddly out of place. Yet, she couldn't find the words to keep him.
To keep him is to agree to be with him.
She hadn't really thought it through.
Zhang Chongguang smiled faintly.
Hoxi entered the bathroom, turned on the showerhead, and the hot water washing over her only served to further jumble her already chaotic thoughts. When she came out, Zhang Chongguang had a towel ready for her, acting respectfully without making any inappropriate moves.
"Thank you!" Huo Xi donned a yukata, brushing back her wet hair.
While she was applying moisturizer, Zhang Chongguang blew dry her hair for her.
In the mirror, they could see each other's expressions clearly, but no one dared to look.
I think I got a bit too ahead of myself.
At last, he gently stroked her black hair and whispered, "Dinner is ready!"
Ho Xi went out with him.
It's indeed a feast! He made hot pot and also some snacks. Just looking at them makes them seem delicious.
As Hoxi sat down, he casually remarked, "You really have a knack for being a nanny."
Zhang Chongguang gazed deeply: "Sure! As long as you're willing."
Huo Xi gave him a glance, smiled faintly, and ate a few bites. She softly asked, "Your things are all still here, when are you moving out"
...and then, before he could finish speaking, a piece of beef roll appeared in the bowl in front of him.
"Eat first!"
Ho Xi raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you say you didn't want to move"
Zhang Chongguang still didn't answer the question, Huo Xi murmured to himself: "It would be nice if he occasionally came over to cook me a meal, his cooking is pretty good!"
"Only cooking skills"
"I thought I could satisfy you more in bed."
"Ho Xi almost choked, she glared at him: “Hey, this is China, not your ABC.”
Zhang Chongguang gazed at her, his eyes filled with tenderness: “But I want to tell you these things! Isn't it normal for couples to say these”
Ho Xi poked around in the small bowl. "No one is your partner, Zhang Chongguang. I want some sesame paste."
He patiently fetched it for her.
While eating, Huo Xi whispered, "You serving me is your duty. You were practically a stray when I took you in and raised you."
Zhang Chongguang looked at her gently.
Ho Xi didn't know what to say anymore, so she just ate silently.
After dinner, he cleared the dishes and put on his coat, looking ready to go home.
Ho Xi saw him to the door.
He lowered his head and whispered, "Come for a walk with me! Huo Xi, shouldn't couples do more than just sleep together"
She wanted to protest, but someone had already put her coat on.
By the time she came to her senses, she was already in Zhang Chongguang's car.
He got himself a new car, much more expensive than his old one. He sat inside looking quite the part, handsome and composed. Huo Xi coughed lightly, "Where to"
"Just browse around!"
"There's a square ahead with a night market. Want to go take a look You girls love this stuff, don't you"
Huo Xi leaned back in his chair: "I'm not Lu You and the others."
Zhang Chongguang smiled lightly, said nothing, but drove past.
On a spring night, in a silent car.
When I was young, there were men and women I once liked. Now, with some physical relationships added in, things have become more ambiguous.
No one spoke.
Ten minutes later, Zhang Chongguang stopped the car and came around to open the door for Huo Xi.
Ho Xi looked at the group of aunts dancing square dance in front of him, squinting his eyes and refusing to come down: "Zhang Chongguang, you said there was a night market, why is it a square dance"
Zhang Chongguang smiled wryly.
He lifted her halfway down, leaning in to kiss her ear: "Just through there! What's the rush"
Huo Xi looked at him strangely. "How come you're so familiar with this place"
"Because I live here! After meals, I like to take a walk downstairs."
Ho Xi looked at him even more strangely.
Zhang Chongguang dragged her hand, like an old married couple, strolling leisurely.
Hoxi had never been like this with anyone before.
She felt a little awkward at first, but then he simply pulled her halfway into his arms and asked in a husky voice, "Is this better"
Hoxie kicked him.
But he leaned in and kissed her lips instead.
A cool night, his lips were warm, carrying the power unique to men, invading her just like that, at a bustling street corner...
Those around were watching, but they had already forgotten themselves!
After a kiss,
Zhang Chongguang whispered in her ear, "I've been wanting to kiss you for ages, but I was afraid you wouldn't be happy! How have the past ten days been You must have missed me, right Not even a phone call"
"Don't you take the initiative either"
Zhang Chongguang kissed her again and said, "Then I'll take the initiative tonight!"
Huo Xi's face flushed, she pushed him away and walked forward.
Zhang Chongguang came up.
After a while, Huo Xi pointed to a small cart and said, "They're selling candied popcorn over there …Zhang Chongguang, did you know this beforehand"
He smiled but said nothing, and walked forward with her.
"Boss, weigh this at one jin."
As soon as the boss raised his eyes, he saw the two people shimmering with gold. One of them was skillfully weighing something while saying, "The boss and his wife are out for a stroll to digest their meal! They really look like a perfect match."
Zhang Chongguang handed him a one hundred yuan bill, not letting him make change.
He smiled faintly and said, "Yes! We just moved in after getting married, it's only been a month or so."
The boss handed him the package and added with a smile, "Best wishes for a healthy baby boy!"
Huoxi coughed lightly and did not expose Zhang Chongguang.
After walking for a while, she let out a sigh and said, "Can't find anyone to marry You really depend on me"
Zhang Chongguang peeled a sunflower seed for her and handed it to her, saying slowly, "Isn't it good that we are together We get along well in every way."
Ho Xi remained silent.
He knew she couldn't make a decision right away, so he didn't pressure her. He reached out and rubbed her hair gently: "We have plenty of time. You can take your time to think about it!"earing this, he tilted his head and lightly scraped her flushed cheeks with a chuckle, "Who said this is meant for you Teacher Wen, are you thinking of getting intimate with me just because you saw th...
