Chapter 66 "My car window, you can't see out..."
"Beep beep—"
It was rush hour, and under the pleasant sunset, the streets were congested.
The young man standing by the window blinked, somewhat unsure if he had misheard.
“I mean… I really enjoy watching the sunset,” the capybara emphasized again.
Guan Yue kept his eyes down, staring intently at the capybara in front of him, and then repeated, "I know, I like you very much too."
Pei Xi froze, her mind went blank again, there was nothing there.
He looked up at Guan Yue with those bewildered eyes.
Guan Yue: "Did you hear that, Qiqi?"
He heard it, but it seemed he couldn't quite make it out, so he just stared blankly and murmured, "Hmm..."
"I did those things not because of physiological needs." Guan Yue could see the capybara's confusion. Since it had already opened its mouth, he didn't mind being a little clearer: "It's because I like you."
He emphasized "like" three times.
The capybara opposite finally reacted: "You...you like me?"
"Yes, I like you." This is the fourth time I've said "I like you."
Pei Xi: "You mean, you like me?"
"Yes, I like you." This is the fifth sentence.
Pei Xi's brain finally recovered successfully.
Dr. Guan is confessing her feelings to him.
What should he say?
Although it wasn't the first time someone had confessed their feelings to me, something just felt different.
My heart was beating a little off, my ears were hot, and my cheeks were burning.
"And what about you, Qiqi?" The man's gaze was intense.
The capybara's cheeks felt even hotter from the heat.
"I don't know..." He really didn't know.
My head is already churning with ideas; it'll probably cook faster than a rice cooker.
The man's eyes were slightly misty, and his lips were slightly pursed.
"I don't dislike Dr. Guan, but... I don't know what it means to like someone." Two blushes rose on the little capybara's cheeks, her tone and eyes sincere. "Besides, other people might marry someone they like, but we're already married. Does liking someone... even matter anymore?"
"It's very important." The man answered firmly and decisively. "If you don't know, it means you don't like it enough."
"Hmm, I don't have much experience... I really can't be sure." The capybara noticed the mist in the man's eyes and was a little worried. It leaned closer and gently tugged at Dr. Guan's finger. "But I don't dislike you... Dr. Guan, I think you're a very good person."
The definition of liking something is probably... quite demanding.
He dared not easily desecrate it.
Guan Yue: "......."
The man chuckled helplessly, "Do you know what's the worst thing to do when confessing your feelings?"
Pei Xi: "What?"
"Give me a 'good guy' card." The man looked down at the young man's hand, which was wrapped around his fingers.
Her fingertips twitched involuntarily: "Chirp chirp..."
Pei Qi felt completely out of the loop; every time she opened her mouth to speak, it was a question: "Wh...what's wrong?"
And he discovered that he had actually become somewhat desensitized to this form of address...
Guan Yue: "I'm going to start pursuing you."
Actually, he had already started chasing after it, but this stupid capybara knew nothing about it.
"Hmm..." Originally, he was holding the man's hand, but in an instant, his hand was gripped instead.
My fingers were enveloped in the warm palm, feeling the dryness of the hand.
It seemed that a burning heart was also handed to him.
The burning intensity in the man's eyes did not diminish in the slightest; he continued to stare undisguisedly into the little capybara's clear, bright eyes.
That look in my eyes is familiar.
The little capybara felt a dryness in its throat, and swallowing didn't relieve it; its brain's thinking and comprehension functions went offline again.
The man's face was close to hers.
He obediently closed his eyes first.
Several seconds later, the expected kiss still didn't come.
Pei Qi squinted her eyes in confusion.
All he could see was that handsome face so close to his own, yet he maintained that distance.
Those handsome, sword-like eyebrows were raised in an arc as they stared intently at the little capybara.
"Qiqi, why are you closing your eyes?"
Wow wow wow.
Really...
The little capybara bit its lip, lowered its gaze, and struggled to free its fingers that were being held: "My eyes itch..."
The fingers were gripped even tighter.
Suddenly, the handsome face that had been very close to him suddenly lowered completely.
Thin lips landed on the young man's unconsciously narrowed eyelids, his thick eyelashes trembling slightly, soothed by the faint touch of lips.
Guan Yue has always been good at balancing things in this regard, both towards those two cute little dots and especially towards those round eyes.
The man kissed both eyes before pulling away, his eyes brimming with undisguised amusement: "Still itchy?"
Pei Xi: "..."
Then, with a piercing gaze, the man kissed the capybara's eyes, mouth, dimples, and so on.
I don't know how to describe that look in my eyes. It's just sticky and gooey, like mozzarella cheese, stretching out in long strands.
Pei Xi couldn't take it anymore.
She lowered her head, shook off the man's hand, and ran out of the bedroom in a panic: "Dinner...dinner is ready, I'll go wash the vegetables, come down quickly."
Guan Yue watched the little capybara flee.
Um.
It's rare to see a capybara react so quickly.
The smile at the corner of his eye deepened.
The sunset outside the window was at its deepest point, turning the entire sky pink.
The next few days were damp and cold.
However, Pei Qi hasn't taken the subway these past few days; Guan Yue has been picking him up and dropping him off at work almost all the time.
Sometimes when the man is busy at work, he will stay at the office a little longer to wait for the man.
And the meals we ate every day at noon were all prepared by Dr. Guan in the morning.
The meals are different every day, and each meal is presented beautifully.
For example, today, there was a slice of ham carved into a heart shape on the white rice in my bento box.
The little capybara began to look forward to opening its bento box every day.
But then I wonder if Dr. Guan, who gets up so early every day, is too tired.
In particular, he kept noticing that Dr. Guan's eyes had been dark circles under them for the past few days.
Besides making him lunchboxes every day, another thing is that Dr. Guan has suddenly stopped kissing him. Sometimes, when the mood is right, he'll just politely kiss his forehead or something. When he sleeps at night, he's very well-behaved; I just hold him, but he doesn't kiss him like he used to...
Pei Xi's thoughts drifted into increasingly strange ones, and just then, the man sent him a message.
Chef Guan: [You've already eaten, haven't you?]
Seven: [I've already eaten.]
Chef Guan: [How's the taste? This is my first time making pork chops.]
Seven: [It's delicious.]
Seven: [A doctor who doesn't pass the test.]
Seven: [Don't make these for me anymore.]
Chef Guan: [Why?]
Seven: [You have to get up so early every day.]
Seven: [Work is tiring enough as it is.]
Chef Guan: [Feeling sorry for me?]
The capybara didn't think much of it: "Yeah, I feel sorry for it."
After a long while.
Chef Guan: [I really want to see you.]
Actually, they had only been apart for a few hours.
Chef Guan: [Last time, Teacher Pei only took a picture of my eyes.]
Chef Guan: [Can I use my full face this time?]
The young man's finger hovered over the screen, momentarily unsure how to reply.
In the short time he hesitated, the man sent him two messages.
Chef Guan: [Aren't you worried about me?]
Chef Guan: [Looking at you makes me not tired anymore.]
Chef Guan: [Qiqi.]
Pei Xi: "..."
He exited WeChat and opened the camera app.
But my selfies still look so weird.
Do I still need to take a selfie with my whole face...?
He tried several times, but still felt it wouldn't work.
So I had to switch back to WeChat and open the keyboard to reply.
Seven: [I was thinking of inviting Dr. Guan to dinner tonight.]
Seven: [I heard from my seniors that a new private kitchen restaurant recently opened.]
Seven: [It should taste pretty good.]
Seven: [Kapibal drooling.jpg]
He figured that posting just a few more messages would be enough to successfully change the subject...
The machine in my hand went numb again.
Chef Guan: [Can I only choose one: dinner or a photo?]
Chef Guan: [Then I'll choose the photo.]
Pei Xi: "..."
He decided to play dead for a while and then go back when it was almost time to leave work in the afternoon.
Then he explained that he had been too busy.
Excellent, flawless.
The capybara then disappeared into its workstation, no longer checking its phone.
Until almost the end of the workday.
The phone rang.
Guan Yue called directly.
“Hello…” the capybara quickly answered, “I was… I was busy and didn’t check the message.”
The male voice on the phone was flat: "Oh... are you done with your work now?"
Pei Xi: "Almost there, have you arrived yet?"
Guan Yue: "Yes, I've arrived. I'm at the entrance of your workplace."
"Okay." Pei Qi saved the document on her computer. "I'll be right down."
He quickly changed his coat, tidied up his workstation, and headed towards the studio door.
Su Mo happened to be at the door at that moment, having just finished smoking a cigarette. When he saw his junior brother coming down the stairs, he couldn't help but go up to him and hook his arm around Pei Qi's shoulder: "Off work?"
"Senior brother, smoke less." The capybara doesn't smoke, and the smell of smoke only makes it feel pungent.
Su Mo sighed, "Sigh, how could someone like you, who has a boyfriend picking you up and dropping you off every day, know my suffering?"
Pei Xi: "Isn't Sister Tian Tian in He City?"
Su Mo: "They left yesterday, sigh..."
No wonder he saw his senior brother looking listless all day.
The young man patted him on the shoulder and gave him two looks of deep sympathy.
The two of them walked out of the company gate together, arms around each other's shoulders.
As if realizing something, Su Mo immediately released the young man's arm and cautiously surveyed the surroundings: "Has your partner arrived?"
"They should be here by now." The little capybara raised its chin and looked at both sides of the street, then immediately spotted the black sedan. "It's over there."
"I'm off now, bye-bye Xiaoxi." Su Mo ran very fast, almost in the blink of an eye.
Pei Qi hurriedly walked to the opposite side, sat in the passenger seat, and said while fastening her seatbelt, "Have you been waiting long?"
"It's alright." He could smell someone else's scent on the capybara.
He saw it all just now too.
Even if that person is Su Mo.
He still couldn't stand it.
All he wanted now was to soak the capybara in his own scent again, erasing every trace of anyone else, not even the slightest bit.
He just wanted to kiss the capybara's lips raw, and then stick his fingers inside...
I just want to completely possess this capybara.
"Let's go to that newly opened restaurant on Beihai Road for dinner, we'll walk along Central Avenue." Pei Xi, still oblivious, turned her head.
Only then did she notice the man's sinister face.
"Hmm, what's wrong?" The capybara put its arm around the man's arm, its voice full of concern. "What happened?"
The man said in a deep voice, "Qiqi, right now, I'm a little out of control."
"Wh...what?" Pei Qi didn't understand what he meant.
Guan Yue: "You can't see inside my car from the outside."
Pei Qi was even more confused.
