A blush crept onto the girl's cheeks, just like the glow of rosy clouds.
How long has it been since he called his baby "baby"? It seems like it started when the arguments became more frequent, and each time it ended in a cold war, and those affectionate terms were never heard again.
However, in the past few days, Lin Yanwan could clearly feel that after being reborn, the conflicts between the two of them were gone, and they got along much more easily than in their previous life.
This affectionate remark must have been uttered unconsciously when he was very relaxed, much like how he used to be in love.
"Uh...you...I think I accidentally said something wrong." Jiang Xia was so embarrassed he wanted to slap himself. Would this make her think he still wanted to get back together with her?
"Haven't you said enough wrong things? Didn't you call me 'Mom' last night?" Lin Yanwan breathed softly, trying to calm herself down, but the blush on her face wouldn't fade anytime soon.
"Ah, this..."
Jiang Xia was speechless for a moment, and said awkwardly, "It's all the fault of habit. Habits are terrible."
"Um……"
Habits can be really scary.
She softly agreed, then lowered her head to continue eating the wontons in her bowl. Strands of hair fell down, obscuring her rosy cheeks, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
The scene immediately quieted down again. Jiang Xia picked up the wontons with her chopsticks and ate them one by one. Two ounces was not enough for a high school student who expended a lot of energy every day.
Holding the bowl, I gently blew away the red oil and chili floating on top, took a bite, and immediately choked.
He turned his head away in discomfort and coughed violently. Lin Yanwan looked at him, pouted, and said, "You can't handle spicy food but you still insist on being tough. You deserve it."
"You're right, but this taste is both numbing and spicy, it's really... cough cough..." Before he could finish speaking, he turned his head away, bent over, covered his mouth, and started coughing.
Lin Yanwan sighed and pushed her bowl over; there were only a few wontons left.
"This isn't spicy, I'll just drink this soup to soothe my throat."
Without any hesitation, he figured that all the leftovers his wife used to eat would end up in his stomach anyway. He gulped down the food in a few mouthfuls, finally feeling a bit better in his throat, and then started eating the remaining wontons.
Wang Ming usually arrives at school right on time, stopping by a breakfast shop to buy steamed buns and soy milk, eating as he walks. By the time he finishes breakfast, he's almost at the classroom.
I was about to leave after buying breakfast when I caught a glimpse of the guy in the corner with his back to me, eating rice. Doesn't he look a bit like Jiang Xia?
"Old Jiang?" he called out tentatively.
Jiang Xia subconsciously turned around, and Wang Ming's eyes lit up. He walked over and said, "It really is you! You usually arrive at the classroom earlier than me, so why are you here today..."
The sound stopped abruptly when he saw who was sitting opposite him.
Damn, no wonder I was in the mood to sit here and eat noodles today, turns out I came here with my goddess.
Looking again, there were two bowls in front of Jiang Xia. One bowl had chopsticks on it, and the surface was covered with red oil with chili peppers floating on it. The other bowl was clear soup with one last wonton left in it, and he was holding a spoon with half of it still uneaten.
There was nothing in front of Lin Yanwan except two tissues that had been used to wipe her mouth.
He fell silent, and suddenly he understood everything.
This bastard keeps saying he's not interested in other people, but here he is, taking people home, having breakfast, and now cleaning up the pretty girl's unfinished wontons.
The key point is, the pretty girl actually agreed!?
What happened to the aloof and cool persona? Shouldn't you at least show some restraint?
This relationship seems to have gone beyond ordinary friendship; it's practically a romantic relationship, isn't it? Isn't this progressing a bit too fast?
Watching his best friend quietly win over the girl from the next class, while he could only watch Aoi-sensei vent her emotions every day, he was so envious that he gritted his teeth.
Why are you here?
Caught red-handed by his best friend, Jiang Xia was a little embarrassed. Adhering to the principle of not wasting food, he ate the remaining two wontons in one bite and then started chugging down the soup.
Wang Ming's eyes widened instantly. Was this bastard deliberately showing off his love in front of him? Seeing him arrive, he still wanted to take the last bite. Did he think the pretty girl's saliva smelled so good? He even ate the soup base.
"Do you think I'm a third wheel, interrupting your date?"
Wang Ming looked grief-stricken. That bastard deserves to die! He abandoned his brothers as soon as he started dating.
"No... Bao and I... cough, Yanwan and I don't have the kind of relationship you're thinking of," Jiang Xia explained earnestly.
Lin Yanwan covered her face speechlessly. Couldn't this guy shut up? This explanation is just making things worse.
Upon hearing his words, Wang Ming trembled with anger.
They're calling each other "Bao" and "Yanwan" so intimately, are they really not even going to put on an act anymore?
It's only been a short time, but you're already acting like a couple deeply in love, your every word reeking of romance.
"Young man, you've misunderstood. Jiang Xia and I really just happened to meet here," Lin Yanwan explained, taking a deep breath.
“Yes, yes, yes, what a coincidence.” Jiang Xia nodded hurriedly.
Upon hearing this reason, Wang Ming's face twitched involuntarily.
happen?
What a coincidence!
Lin Yanwan's blushing explanation looked to him like she was extremely shy.
Even if the Buddha himself came with the Five Finger Mountain today, you two would still be in a relationship!
He took a sorrowful sip of his bland soy milk, then looked at the two of them exchanging glances. "Damn it," he thought, "we agreed to stay single together, but you secretly found a girlfriend."
The clown is himself?!
"Hurry up, stop talking nonsense, we'll be late if we don't leave now." Jiang Xia checked the time, took out twenty yuan from his bag, and paid for his wife's share as well.
