Chapter 218 Intersection

Chapter 219 Intersection

The night wind gradually woke Fang Qing up. Looking at Wen Ning standing in front of her with a gentle smile, her breathing gradually calmed down. But thinking about the current state of the two of them, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

How did you catch up with me just now?

Fang Qing bit her lip and said nothing. She averted her eyes and looked at the banyan tree beside her. After a while, she was about to speak to break this situation, but Wen Ning spoke first.

"Let's walk together. It's easy to get a taxi out front."

Fang Qing glanced around and saw that there were indeed no taxis passing by. The surrounding street lights were also dim, and it was indeed not safe for him to walk there. He nodded and followed his footsteps, walking towards the distant street corner.

This was the first time in two years that Fang Qing walked so closely with Wen Ning. Although she denied it again and again, when the scent of Wen Ning wafted over her in the night breeze, she unexpectedly felt at ease and happy.

Fang Qing sighed, she was indeed useless. Even though he hurt her so much, the habit of many years had already penetrated into her soul and it was not so easy to forget. Thinking of the awkward situation of the two of them at this moment, she immediately moved to the side, but Wen Ning saw her little action, stretched out his hand to pull her to the inside of the road, and continued walking closer to the road.

This made Fang Qing look up at him. He didn't expect that he still kept this habit. He used to walk like this every time, saying that this would protect him at any time. Fang Qing thought for a while, it seems that he is not the only one affected by the habit...

Wen Ning seemed to notice her gaze, and he looked straight ahead and spoke slowly, "If you keep looking at me like this, I'll think you still like me."

Fang Qing was embarrassed by what he said, and immediately turned his head back, looking forward to explain, "Who was looking at you? I was just looking at the words on the wall over there..."

Wen Ning smiled but didn't expose her. Since he had already opened the door, he might as well continue talking, "There's nothing else except a breakfast sign over there..."

Fang Qing was slightly stunned, she turned her head and looked back, and found that there were indeed no words on the wall opposite. She was exposed and her face turned red immediately. She pursed her lips, not knowing how to respond.

Seeing her being humiliated, Wen Ning smiled even more happily. He blocked his nose with his fist and saw a dessert shop on the street. He remembered that Fang Qing liked desserts, so he walked over immediately.

Seeing all kinds of small cakes in the window, Wen Ning ordered a few from the boss. Seeing Fang Qing standing behind him, he called her over, "This shop is newly opened, the egg tarts and cheesecakes are very good. You don't like to eat in the morning, you can buy some for breakfast..."

After hearing what Wen Ning said, Fang Qing came over and looked at the cake in front of her, not knowing what to say. This man still remembered her preferences, but his constant concern was something she didn't want.

"Wen Ning, I don't need you anymore."

Wen Ning, who was selecting pastries, paused when he heard this, but still insisted on buying a few, then carried them to the nearby bus stop with Fang Qing. Standing on the street, Wen Ning thought for a long time, and felt that it was better to make many things clear, but before he could open his mouth, Fang Qing received a call, and then hailed a taxi and left quickly.

Looking at the cake in his hand, Wen Ning felt powerless. He really had underestimated Fang Qing's resistance to him.

Starting from the next day, in addition to giving Fang Qing a bouquet of flowers every day, Wen Ning would occasionally run into Fang Qing. Even if Fang Qing no longer wanted to meet him, he couldn't ignore him because of the people around him.

That day, Fang Qing was returning home from work. As soon as she entered the community, she found that the aunties downstairs were gathered together and enthusiastically discussing something. Out of curiosity, Fang Qing also walked over to listen to what they were talking about, but she didn't expect to see a familiar figure.

"Wen Ning? Why are you here?" Fang Qing was carrying a bag of vegetables and saw Wen Ning sitting on a chair in the community, distributing flyers to everyone.

When Aunt Wang saw Fang Qing coming back, she enthusiastically took her hand and introduced the benefits that Wen Ning brought. "Xiao Fang, you came at the right time. This guy said that their company has an event. As long as you send a text message about this event to your friends, you can get five kilograms of eggs for free. Eggs are so expensive now. Why don't you come and get one too..."

The more Fang Qing listened to Aunt Wang's description, the more he felt that this was a scam. However, it didn't seem like something Wen Ning would do. He immediately grabbed the flyer and read it carefully. After a while, he finally understood that this was a propaganda method.

After all the baskets of eggs in front of Wen Ning were delivered, Fang Qing stayed to help pick up the flyers on the ground.

"Wen Ning, you are amazing. As a vice president, you actually condescended to come to an old neighborhood to distribute eggs for the company's promotion! Should I praise you for your dedication to your work..."

Wen Ning, who was cleaning up the garbage around him, smiled when he heard this. "I also wanted to see how effective this method is. As you can see, just this afternoon, our company's new product promotion has informed thousands of people. After hearing about the efficacy and price of our new product, these people are very interested. This will have a positive effect on our promotion activities next month. We can promote this method later. It is much more cost-effective than hiring an obvious spokesperson..."

Fang Qing picked up the waste paper on the ground and sighed. This guy really hit the nail on the head. In her previous life, she had heard the nurses in the mental hospital say that there was a new activity somewhere, and then they made an appointment to go and see it. She didn't expect that this method would be thought of by Wen Ning. Sure enough, the brains of academic masters are different.

The two of them cleaned up for a long time and finally cleaned up the area. Fang Qing then remembered that she had missed the time to finish cooking. Looking at the dishes in her hands, she was tired and didn't want to cook anymore. She was ready to buy a box of instant noodles to eat.

Unexpectedly, Wen Ning followed him and said, "Hey, there are spare ribs. What delicious food are we going to eat today?"

Although Fang Qing didn't want to pay attention to him, he still replied, "Let's talk about it tomorrow. I'm too tired today."

But Wen Ning stepped forward and grabbed the ribs and followed Fang Qing. "I haven't had a good meal in a long time. Why don't I show you my cooking skills today and let you taste my cooking skills."

Fang Qing refused, but Wen Ning picked up the names of the dishes as he walked, "Sweet and sour spare ribs, seared fish fillet, kelp tofu soup, garlic-fried Chinese cabbage..."

Fang Qing, who was already extremely hungry, was disturbed by the curse. She immediately forgot her original intention, swallowed her saliva reluctantly, and finally succumbed to her desire and helped Wen Ning to cook for her.

Watching Wen Ning busying around in the kitchen, with waves of delicious aroma wafting into his nose, Fang Qing admired Wen Ning more and more. He seemed to be good at everything and learned things quickly.

When all the dishes were served, Fang Qing couldn't wait any longer. He added a piece of meat and started chewing. He was amazed by the taste. "When did you learn to cook? You're doing well..."

But Wen Ning smiled faintly and took off his apron, watching Fang Qing eat with a satisfied look on his face, "I learned this dish myself when I was living abroad and had no place to stay because I missed the taste of my hometown."

Fang Qing paused. "No fixed place to live? Didn't you go to graduate school?"
