Tap the forehead

Fu Xingchuan pulled out a stool for Lin Xiao and sat down opposite her. "Where did you go this afternoon?"

"I went back to No. 1 Middle School."

"What happened to the kid?"

"fine."

The waiter brought the menu. Lin Qi glanced at the prices and changed the subject, "Wow, things here are more expensive than before."

“You’ve been here before”

"I came here once with Xu Yangyang and Tang Zhihua. About five years ago. Back then, the building didn't look this fancy from the outside, and there were no prices on the menu. But when we paid the bill, we were stunned."

Fu Xingchuan stared at her intently. Perhaps because the heating was on high, Lin Luo felt hot and her face flushed. "Don't look at me, look at the menu."

Fu Xingchuan chuckled, looked away, and closed the menu. "Order! The food here tastes pretty good."

Perhaps worried that Lin Qi might be concerned, Fu Xingchuan added, "Order something expensive."

"Then I'm going to give you a good beating." Lin Luo blurted out, and Fu Xingchuan corrected her, "My money is your money."

"I'm a rich woman too!" Her eyes lit up instantly.

"You are already a rich woman, rich in spirit."

"You're speaking better and better now."

"I learned it from you."

As the night deepened, tiny lights dotted the darkness. Traffic was bustling, but it was too far away to hear a single sound.

Suddenly, the melodious melody played by the violinist fell into her ears. Lin Luo turned around and saw the waiter bringing red wine, saying that the boss had prepared it specially for Fu Xingchuan.

"Thanks."

The waiter walked away. Lin Qi looked at the expensive bottle of wine and said to Fu Xingchuan, "Let's not drink today, okay?"

"Okay." Her red lips opened and closed, extremely seductively, making Fu Xingchuan want to obey her in everything.

"Let's play a game!"

Lin Qi looked at him expectantly. Fu Xingchuan asked, "What game?"

Lin Xiao: "A game where each person asks a question and only the truth can be told. Do you dare?"

Fu Xingchuan: What happens if you tell a lie?

Lin Qi: "Flick the other person on the forehead."

Fu Xingchuan smiled, but it was fleeting. "But how can you tell whether the other person is telling the truth or not?"

"Look at your eyes. They don't lie. That's why this game is only fun when you're sober."

"Want to play?" Lin Luo opened her eyes wide, and Fu Xingchuan said "hmm".

Lin Qi: "Let me ask first."

Fu Xingchuan: "Okay."

Lin Qiao: "What was your impression of me in high school?"

Fu Xingchuan: "Well... she's a girl who cries a lot, but is also very strong. She's always willing to go through fire and water for her friends, and she's kind, brave, and very opinionated."

brave

Fu Xingchuan: "It's my turn."

"After you get into Kyoto University, do you want to come and see me?"

Lin Xiao: "Yes, but it's a pity that you are going abroad."

Just a little bit.

Lin Qi: "When did you start liking me?"

Fu Xingchuan thought for a while and said slowly: "After being married for a while, I naturally fell in love with her."

Fu Xingchuan: "Before you agreed to the Fu family's blind date request, did you know that the other party was me?"

Lin Xiao: “I know.”

It was Lin Luo's turn to ask. She pursed her lips and stared at him intently, "Are you still in touch with Tong Yun?"

Fu Xingchuan's eyes flashed, and he said in a hoarse voice: "No."

"If I hadn't stopped you that day, would you really have agreed to be with Xu Fanqing just because he'd liked you for ten years?"

Lin Xiao said softly, "Yes."

"Fu Xingchuan, are you really not hiding anything from me?"

Fu Xingchuan smiled and said, "Of course not."

Lin Xiao took a few sips of the water, and Fu Xingchuan continued to ask, "Are you going to Uncle Tang's hometown for the New Year this year?"

It wasn't something that hadn't happened yet, but did his questioning mean he wanted to end the game? Why? Was he feeling guilty? Or was he afraid he'd ask something he shouldn't? Under the table, Lin Luo clasped her hands, a subtle gesture she made when she was nervous.

"Are you going to Jinghe?" she asked indifferently.

"I want to spend the New Year with you. I'll spend it wherever you go."

It was too hot, and Lin Luo seemed to be almost out of breath. "Okay, I'll think about it, let's go!"

"Um."

Fu Xingchuan went to pay the bill first. Lin Luo stood in front of the elevator door. Her feet hurt, perhaps because she hadn't worn high heels for a long time.

After getting into the elevator and going down from the 49th floor, Lin Luo saw that the wall next to her was made of glass. She looked out the window and felt like she was on a bungee jumping machine, her mood fluctuating.

When getting out of the elevator, Lin Luo didn't pay attention and the heel of her shoe almost got stuck in the gap, and it seemed that she twisted it.

She held onto the wall and managed to stand straight. Fu Xingchuan, who was walking in front of her, turned back and noticed her movements. He reached out to hold her hand. Lin Luo supported his arm, straightened her back, and smiled at him, "I can do it myself."

Lin Luo strode out, and Fu Xingchuan fell behind. He dropped his hands and quickly caught up with her.

When they got in the car, Lin Luo leaned back in the seat with her eyes closed. She heard the door closing and thought it was Fu Xingchuan getting in. Uncle Li started the car and Lin Luo sighed unconsciously.

Fu Xingchuan suddenly grasped her calf with his hand, and the burning sensation in his palm made her flesh itch. Lin Qi frowned, and the next second she felt Fu Xingchuan taking off her shoes, and she opened her eyes.

The script wanted to step on the carpet, but Fu Xingchuan grabbed it and put it on his leather shoes.

Lin Luo deliberately used a little force, moved closer to him and asked, "Does it hurt?"

"I don't feel anything." He raised his eyebrows, "Try harder."

Lin Luo didn't listen to him. Instead, she just lightly placed the instep of her foot on his leather shoes, which was no different from jumping into the air.

Fu Xingchuan lifted her legs, stretched them out on his thighs, and gently massaged her feet.

Lin Xiao hid, "Itchy."

Fu Xingchuan restrained her feet, not letting her move. "They're all red."

"I used to be really good. I even ran 50 meters in high heels!"

“Why run in high heels?”

"When I was in college, I accompanied Tang Zhihua to sign with a company. I was her agent. At that time, she didn't have many fans and the company didn't want to sign her. So, in order to get a chance to show my face in front of the boss, I ran after cars and forgot I was wearing high heels."

"My feet were rubbed raw and blistered, and it was very painful to walk for the next few days. But now I think it was worth it. Tang Zhihua is now a shareholder of that company."

Fu Xingchuan imagined the scene of her limping, and seeing her speaking calmly and expressing inexplicable heartache, he slowly stroked her feet and gave her a massage.

Lin Luo was still immersed in her memories. Fu Xingchuan's fingertips rubbed the soles of her feet from time to time, tickling her so much that she kept retracting her feet and trying to break free, but she didn't realize that she had accidentally touched a certain part of her foot by moving around.

Lin Luo glanced at the high heels next to her and compared their length with her hands. "That one is this long."

"Are you sexually suggesting me again?" Fu Xingchuan's eyelashes trembled, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Lin Qi quickly put her hand down, her ears flushed. "No, I'm talking about high heels."

"It doesn't seem so?" Fu Xingchuan teased her deliberately.

Lin Luo glared at him and flicked his forehead. "Really? What are you thinking about all day long?"

Guessing what he was going to say, Lin Luo covered his mouth to stop him from speaking.

Fu Xingchuan reached out to touch her face, but Lin Qiao dodged, "Your hand just touched my foot."

Fu Xingchuan used his elbow to push her hand away. "I don't even dislike your feet, but you do."

Lin Xiao said confidently, "Isn't it possible?"

"Okay." He poked his tongue against his cheek and a bad idea came up.

Lin Luo saw his hand approaching, as if he wanted to touch her on purpose, so she quickly dodged it. However, this man used a diversionary tactic. She leaned forward to avoid his hand, and Fu Xingchuan immediately leaned over and kissed her.

Something hit her knee and Lin Luo felt itchy. She pushed Fu Xingchuan away and looked over there, her whole face flushed.

Fu Xingchuan said calmly, "I'm making this clear."

Lin Xiao put her arms around his neck and buried her head in it. "We have to go to work tomorrow, so let's not bother tonight, okay?"

"Okay." Fu Xingchuan agreed without hesitation. "You've been really tired recently. You've lost a lot of weight. All the fat I worked so hard to gain is gone."

"What do you mean you've worked so hard to fatten someone up and you're still taking credit for other people's work?" Lin Luo pinched him.

"Little ungrateful bastard, the nutritious recipes Aunt Wang makes for you every day are all provided by me."

Lin Qi was stunned for a few seconds. "You also asked her to prepare the different kinds of teas in the thermos cup that replenish qi and blood every day."

"What else?"

"I'm sorry." Lin Luo's expression changed immediately, and his fingertips touched the place where he had pinched him. "Come, let me blow on you, and it will stop hurting."

Fu Xingchuan was amused by her pretentious attitude, "You still have some conscience."

In the darkness, the sucking sound was amplified. Fu Xingchuan accidentally pressed the light switch, and the whole house was lit up. He reluctantly let go of Lin Luo's lips, "Go take a shower and go to bed early!"

With a clearly disappointed expression, the thorn in Lin's heart pricked her and warned her, but she still softened her heart and said, "I don't have the strength anymore, can you help me wash it?"

"Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to stop?"

"Just think of it as a dare." Lin Luo observed his expression. "If you don't like it, forget it."

She walked away, and Fu Xingchuan picked her up and said, "Let's go! I will definitely withstand the test of Madam."

The sound of water was heard in the bathroom, and then only the sound of dripping faucet remained, which gradually faded away.

Fu Xingchuan held Lin Xiao in his arms and coaxed her to sleep. He stroked her back and sighed, "You've lost so much weight! I don't even dare to touch you too hard, for fear of breaking it apart."

Lin Luo suddenly opened her eyes. "I suddenly remembered that there's a family dinner on the 15th of this month?"

"I was so busy that I forgot. Have you booked the flight to Jinghe?" she asked.

"No." Fu Xingchuan didn't react. "My eldest brother and his wife are going to Iceland, and Dr. Fu is going to perform surgery on a critically ill patient abroad, so we're simply not having a family dinner. Ms. Zhu Yu will return to Nan'an, and then we'll go hiking with her along with Sui'an and the others."

"good."

Lin Luo closed her eyes again. "Isn't the weather in Iceland usually very bad in January? It would be very cold if you go there, brother and sister-in-law, right?"

"My sister-in-law likes Diamond Beach, and you can even catch the Northern Lights if you go there at this time."

"That's right!" Lin Luo said with a smile, "Then I want to go there too."

Fu Xingchuan didn't move. Lin Luo saw that he was a little sleepy. While he was still asleep, she suddenly had an idea to ask him, "If we were trapped in the snow and not together, and an avalanche was about to happen, and the helicopter found you first, what would you do? Would you leave me behind?"

"Silly boy, I won't leave you alone."
