Chapter 214 Sorry, I can’t help feeling

The atmosphere in the box was subtle and tense. Sensing the tension between the two, Gu Zhiyuan quickly spoke up, "Aren't you hungry? I'm almost starving. Let's eat."

Gu Yunyi also quickly agreed: "Yes, the dishes in this restaurant look very good."

Everyone then started to eat.

Chen Xubai poured a bowl of soup for Gu Zhiyuan, pushed it in front of her, and said slowly: "Drink the soup first, then eat the spicy food."

Gu Zhiyuan took it obediently: "Oh."

Cheng Zhao saw it, but didn't say anything more.

Throughout the whole process, Shen Xubai took good care of Gu Zhiyuan, picking up food for her, removing fish bones, and peeling shrimps.

Gu Zhiyuan also looked accustomed to it and concentrated on eating.

Gu Yunyi would occasionally say a few words to liven up the atmosphere, so it wasn't too awkward.

After dinner, Gu Zhiyuan went to the bathroom and found three men waiting at the door of the store.

Cheng Zhao said to Gu Yunyi, "Next time there's a competition, I'll tell your sister and you can come along."

Gu Yunyi: "Okay."

Cheng Zhao looked at Shen Xubai: "Mr. Shen should not be interested in these, so I won't invite you. They are just young people having fun."

Shen Xubai slowly raised his eyelids, not caring much: "You can do whatever you want."

After Gu Zhiyuan came out, everyone stopped talking. Shen Xubai and Gu Zhiyuan were going back together, so they said goodbye here.

Shen Xubai looked at Gu Yunyi, handed him a business card, and took the initiative to talk to him for the first time: "If you have any questions in the future, you can come to me directly."

Gu Yunyi was flattered and took it with both hands: "Okay, okay, thank you, brother-in-law."

As soon as the word "brother-in-law" came out, Shen Xubai raised his eyebrows slightly, raised a curve on his lips, and looked at him approvingly.

Gu Zhiyuan glared at Gu Yunyi. What was he shouting about? She hadn't agreed yet.

Gu Yunyi immediately ran away: "Then I'll go first, sisters, go back slowly!"

After saying that, Gu Yunyi went to drive the car. Gu Zhiyuan then looked at Cheng Zhao and said, "Then we'll leave first."

Cheng Zhao nodded, smiling in a cheeky yet harmless way: "Okay, let's make an appointment next time."

After saying that, he lazily turned the keys in his hand and left.

Gu Zhiyuan also got into Shen Xubai's car, and the two went back together.

We chatted idly along the way.

Shen Xubai parked the car in front of Gu Zhiyuan's house. She unbuckled her seat belt and tried to open the door, but found that it couldn't be opened. She turned around and looked at Shen Xubai in surprise.

Chen Xubai looked at her with deep eyes and opened his thin lips slightly: "Zhizhi, from now on, don't associate with that kid named Cheng anymore."

Gu Zhiyuan frowned: "Why?"

Suddenly he realized something and his eyes lit up: "Are you jealous?"

Shen Xubai's expression was slightly restrained. He did not give a direct answer, but only said: "Be obedient."

The smile on Gu Zhiyuan's face faded. Although she liked Shen Xubai, she still felt a little resistant to his overbearing and unreasonable request.

Although she and Cheng Zhao met through a blind date, neither of them was interested in each other. They could get along well and were not close friends, but they could be just ordinary friends.

"You have no right to interfere with my friendships."

Besides, the relationship between her and Cheng Zhao was normal and there was no crossing of boundaries.

They don't contact each other often, but they may have some interactions occasionally.

Shen Xubai's dark eyes sank, staring at her without blinking.

Gu Zhiyuan was also very angry, and she didn't look at him with a stern face.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Xubai sighed silently and compromised first: "Okay, I won't force you, but if you want to meet him in the future, you must tell me."

Gu Zhiyuan raised her eyes, staring at him with her big watery eyes, somewhat puzzled and somewhat relieved.

Shen Xubai raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head: "Be good and listen."

Gu Zhiyuan has never been able to resist such Shen Xubai.

She muttered in dissatisfaction: "I know, why are you still so stingy at your age?"

Shen Xu raised the corners of his eyes slightly, his stern profile tinged with some inexplicable emotions, and his voice was cold: "Age? Zhizhi, do you dislike my age?"

There was no light on in the car, only the street light on the side reflected through the glass. Shen Xubai's handsome features looked even deeper and more three-dimensional in the dim light. The dark color added a layer of unfathomable desire.

Gu Zhiyuan pursed her lips: "I didn't say that."

This face doesn't look thirty years old at all. However, Shen Xubai has a strong aura, calm and reserved, and the noble and sharp temperament in his every move is not something that a young person can possess at all.

Shen Xubai stared at her with his gloomy eyes. He suddenly leaned forward and stopped at half an arm's length from her. After a few seconds, he slowly spoke: "Zhizhi, what's this? Don't you like me anymore?"

Gu Zhiyuan was stunned, blinking blankly, and was caught off guard for a moment: "No, why do you ask this suddenly?"

Shen Xubai chuckled: "So you still like it, huh?"

He deliberately lowered his voice, and his deep, magnetic voice seemed to be coated with a layer of sexy hoarseness in the small space, scratching her cochlea.

Gu Zhiyuan felt as if his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Her cheeks were stained with a light blush, and when she met his deep eyes, she felt like she was having trouble breathing.

I want to admit it, but I don't want to admit it so quickly.

I was torn between my conscience and my desires.

Shen Xubai looked at her and tempted her little by little: "You like me, but you keep me hanging?"

Gu Zhiyuan immediately retorted: "No, I didn't. That's not called hanging on. I've been chasing you for so long, and you've only been chasing me for a few days."

At the end, his voice gradually lowered.

A light laugh escaped from Shen Xubai's throat, with an indulgent look: "Okay, I'll chase you."

Gu Zhiyuan felt like her ears were about to become pregnant. Why did Shen Xubai suddenly become like a different person?

It's not that Shen Xubai didn't feel Gu Zhiyuan's awkwardness, he was also happy to chase her, play with her and make her happy, until she really calmed down and took the initiative to let go.

But what happened today made him change his mind.

He knew that she didn't like Cheng Zhao, but maybe there would be Li Zhao and Wang Zhao in the future.

He needed a status so that he could manage her and protect her openly.

Besides, to win over such a likable girl, you have to take the initiative.

Shen Xubai looked at her eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, his gaze moved down to her moist cherry pink lips, and moved closer little by little.

The car was so quiet that one could hear the two people's breathing and heartbeats. Gu Zhiyuan looked at Shen Xubai's slightly drooping eyelids. She couldn't see the expression in his eyes, but she could feel that the air around them had become ambiguous and tender.

Her fingers were tightly gripping the seat belt, her fingertips were turning white, and her pounding heart seemed about to jump out of her chest.

The distance between the two people shortened little by little.

Ten centimeters.

Five centimeters.

One centimeter.

Shen Xubai curled his lips and continued to move closer when Gu Zhiyuan held his breath.

The warm lips just brushed against her cheek, and in her surprised eyes, Shen Xubai tilted his head and stopped at the side of her neck.

His voice was slightly hoarse and tinged with lust.

"Sorry, Zhizhi is so cute, I can't help but feel emotional."

"But, our current relationship is not good enough."
