"Jiaojiao, have some fish. Chen Yun bought this fish at the morning market this morning. It's very fresh."

Looking at the two pieces of meat in the bowl, she was confused.

She picked up the ribs and had just taken a bite when someone kicked her leg again.

She turned her head and looked at Pei Zhiting, only to see him raise his eyebrows at her and kick her leg.

What's going on? He used to be very steady, but why is he so naughty now?

Song Xijiao lowered her head and was about to eat the ribs when she saw her hand was wrapped by Pei Zhiting's hand.

His fingers were long and slender, with distinct joints, completely covering his hand.

Song Xijiao's heartbeat became uncontrollable again.

She picked up the water cup and took a few gulps, trying to calm her heartbeat.

But just as Song Xijiao put down the cup of water, Pei Zhiting's hand reached out again.

He peeled the shrimp, dipped it in sauce, and handed it to Song Xijiao's mouth.

"Jiaojiao, these shrimps are quite fresh, try them."

Song Xijiao looked at the shrimp that was handed to her mouth, then looked at Pei Zhiting's smiling eyes, and opened her mouth as if possessed by a ghost.

The shrimp meat was firm and lightly sweet, but when Song Xijiao ate it, it tasted like chewing wax.

Last night, Pei Zhiting coaxed her in the same way, and then...

"Jiaojiao, be good, open your mouth."

"ah……"

"Jiaojiao, you're bleeding from your nose..." Song Hua said in panic.

Both nostrils are running, it's so embarrassing.

Pei Zhiting pulled her to the bathroom, making amends as they walked.

"It's all my mom's fault. She gave you nap supplements every day. Now you've taken too much..."

Don't blame your mother, it's obviously you who lacks self-control.

Song Xijiao shook off his hand, but he held it tightly. She staggered and was dragged into the bathroom by him.

Pei Zhiting locked the door, pushed Song Xijiao against the wall, pinched her chin, and forced her to look up at him.

"Jiaojiao, why are you so easily shy now, huh?"

Pei Zhiting seemed to have awakened some extraordinary attribute. Just one sentence made her lose her direction. Her head was dizzy, her feet were light-footed, and her heartbeat drifted off track, racing all the way.

"Stay away from me, I'm suffocating."

As he spoke, he took a few deep breaths, and the smell he inhaled was all Pei Zhiting's.

Sweet, super sweet, even her favorite chocolate cream cake is not as sweet as this one.

Pei Zhiting was quick to grab her, and she fell into his arms, held in his embrace.

…………

"Look up."

Song Xijiao raised her head and stared at the ceiling above her head, not daring to look at Pei Zhiting.

In her impression, Pei Zhiting was calm and reserved. Although he would tease her sometimes, he would never act like this today. He was like...

"Jiaojiao, I haven't thought about it yet. How should I describe me?"

"A walking aphrodisiac, a knockout drug, a muscle softener, poisonous mushrooms, marijuana, aphrodisiac, arsenic..."

Her entire state right now was one of fear and pain, fear of death, pain of death, and greed of death. Life would be worse than death, and she would die with her eyes open. Damn it, Li Li Yuan Shang Song...

…

The little nosebleed incident passed quickly, and the group moved to the living room.

As Song Xijiao chatted, her mind drifted away, and her eyes occasionally fell on Pei Zhiting.

She didn't hear a word Song Hua said, but she looked at Pei Zhiting thoroughly.

His fingers are long and slender with distinct joints. When holding the chess piece, his middle finger rests lightly on the chess piece, his index finger taps the chess piece lightly, and his ring finger and little finger are slightly raised and rest lightly on the chessboard. His posture is excellent.

This hand, last night...

“…………”

She pulled her thoughts back, but as soon as she finished playing chess and looked up at Pei Zhiting, her thoughts drifted away again.

Pei Zhiting was wearing a black shirt today with two buttons undone at the collar, revealing his protruding Adam's apple and well-defined jawline.

“…………”

"Mom, let me go buy some groceries! I'll make dinner."

She now urgently needs to go to the market to buy a few pounds of pig brains to supplement her diet.

"No need. It's a rare opportunity for you to rest. Just rest at home and let your Uncle Chen go."

"It's okay, I'll go with Jiaojiao. Mom, do you want to eat anything?"

"I'm fine with either. You can buy whatever you like."

Song Xijiao pretended to be calm as she walked out of the house. Only after she went downstairs did she cover her mouth and laugh stealthily.

Pei Zhiting put his hands in his pockets and followed her closely, his eyes as soft as a pool of spring water.

"Jiaojiao."

She turned around and was about to ask what was wrong when Pei Zhiting pushed her against the wall.

"Jiaojiao, you looked at me no less than fifty times today. What, wasn't it enough last night?"

"You...looked at mine first...ok!" Song Xijiao stumbled, "Also...you are my legal husband, it's only natural for me to look at you. What do you mean by want? Don't talk nonsense."

Turning left is the community entertainment room where children are playing table tennis. Turning right is the community gym where you can vaguely see a lot of fitness equipment.

She has walked this road back and forth for more than 20 years, and has never felt as embarrassed and awkward as she does today.

Pei Zhiting picked up the hair sticking to her cheek with his index finger, wrapped it around his fingertips and played with it. Suddenly, he leaned over, took her earlobe in his mouth and bit it lightly.

"Jiaojiao, the look in your eyes clearly shows that you want to do it with me, but I only said the word 'yes' and in your little head, you've already done it with me."

Song Xijiao put her hands on his chest, her fingers trembling.

"Don't do this, we're outside."

Her entire state now was like she was dead, yet not dead, her soul had left her body, and she was floating in a trance...

"Then... I'll give you a kiss... and be your matchmaker?" Pei Zhiting held her waist and pressed her against the wall. "But, Jiaojiao, I don't want to be just your legal husband. I also want to be your boyfriend."

The nerves in Song Xijiao's brain responsible for memory flickered for a few seconds, then flickered again and resumed working.

What did Pei Zhiting say?

Boy friend?

What boyfriend?

Pei Zhiting wants to be her boyfriend?

He is obviously her husband!

"Jiaojiao, I like you, I love you. I want to start a relationship with you again as your boyfriend, not as your husband, and live a life of respect with you."

Pei Zhiting let go of her waist, took two steps back, suddenly knelt on one knee, took out a ring from his pocket, and said slowly.

"Jiaojiao, I love you. Can you be my girlfriend? Have a relationship with me with the intention of getting married."

"You proposed."

Propose in bed.

"I'm not proposing to you." Pei Zhiting smiled gently, "I'm asking you if you are willing to be my girlfriend."

He paused and emphasized it again.

"Jiaojiao, I'm confessing to you."

"How can you be like this! We've already got the marriage certificate, and you're only confessing now."

Song Xijiao complained, but she stretched out her hand honestly.

Pei Zhiting slowly pushed the ring into the base of her ring finger, lowered his head, and reverently kissed the back of her hand.

"You agreed, so let's celebrate with a kiss."
