Chapter 212 Scratch-off
The New Year's Day holiday is three days.
In the morning, Xu Qingwu woke up in Cen Xihuai's arms.
Last night was New Year's Eve. Cen Xihuai said it was the last day of the year and pestered her to make an exception.
Boyfriend, husband, brother, Brother Xihuai, Daddy... He coaxed her into calling him a bunch of random names, and she couldn't even remember when it ended.
When I saw Cen Xihuai’s face in the early morning, I was struck by her beauty as soon as I opened my eyes.
When he was asleep, he didn't have that aloof and distant look as usual, but inexplicably seemed... well-behaved?
The eyelashes are so long.
Xu Qingwu stretched out her hand and compared with her fingers, then couldn't help but touch his tall nose, followed by his super soft lips.
It's so soft, like gummy candy.
The more I touch it, the more I want to touch it.
After becoming addicted to touching it, the gummy bear suddenly opened, wrapped her finger in it, and gently bit it with the tip of its teeth.
Xu Qingwu was so frightened that she immediately withdrew her hand and met his eyes with a faint smile.
Xu Qingwu pretended to be calm: "You're awake. You were lazy this morning."
"I'm taking a break today to spend time with my girlfriend." Cen Xihuai reached out to hug her and rubbed his head against her neck. "Why are you touching me?"
"Who touched it secretly? I touched it openly."
"Is just touching your mouth enough? Do you want to touch my abs? I worked out yesterday and didn't slack off."
"Then let's test the results."
Xu Qingwu moved her fingers downwards, but she usually touched very little, and she accidentally went too far.
As her fingertips slid across him, she clearly felt him tremble.
"No... sorry..."
"If you want to touch it, it's not that you can't, but you have to be responsible for the aftermath."
"I don't!"
"Wife, please be more responsible."
“…”
Then Xu Qingwu was forced to take responsibility once. At the end, she felt like her hands were on fire because they were all smelling of him.
Xu Qingwu couldn't help but think of the marriage examination.
If he didn't have such a face and the two of them were about to get married, she would really think he was a pervert.
Under the faucet, Cen Xihuai squeezed some hand soap and carefully washed her hands.
"Cen Xihuai, didn't you feel it was presumptuous during the marriage examination?"
"feel."
"Then why did you let me..."
"If we continue to hold on, it will be even more presumptuous." After washing his hands, Cen Xihuai took out a tissue to dry them for her. "Because I know you are my future wife, I ask for your help."
"Hmph, I'm hungry."
"What do you want to eat?"
"Pasta bar."
"good."
Cen Xihuai went downstairs to make breakfast. Xu Qingwu followed him like a little follower, seemingly helping him, but actually making trouble.
She dropped the onions on the chopping board into the sink. Cen Xihuai washed the onions again and placed them in the middle of the chopping board to make sure she wouldn't drop them again.
As a result, the two peeled cloves of garlic "jumped" into the pool one after another.
When Cen Xihuai looked at her with an inquiring gaze, she looked quite innocent.
"My hand slipped."
"Um."
Cen Xihuai picked it up, washed it, and placed it next to the onion, then silently moved the chopping board to the center of the table.
Xu Qingwu felt that he was too emotionally stable. It seemed that except in bed, he had no emotions at other times, whether it was when they played the breakup kitchen game together or now when he knew she was deliberately making trouble but he didn't scold her.
"Cen Xihuai, you have a good temper!"
Upon hearing this, Cen Xihuai paused in preparing the food and chuckled, "You're the first person to say that."
If Yao Wei, Cen Jing and other senior executives were present and heard Xu Qingwu's words, they would simply think it was nonsense, and the sun might be rising in the west!
The weather was cold, and Xu Qingwu had no desire to go out, so she stayed at home with Cen Xihuai, petting the cat and reading books.
In the afternoon, Xu Yanli called Cen Xihuai.
He said that Jiang Youxin had just opened a lottery shop which would open in the afternoon, and asked him and Xu Qingwu to find time to go over and show their support.
Xu Qingwu soon received a WeChat message from Jiang You, asking her to come over and play the scratch-off lottery when she was free.
Xia Xiaoxiao likes scratch-off tickets very much. If she is lucky, she can basically make back her money, and occasionally she can win hundreds or thousands of dollars.
Xu Qingwu had scratched the lottery with her once before, with ten tickets worth ten yuan each, but she didn't win a single cent.
After that, she declined to participate in such activities. Her money didn't come from the wind, and playing this was like throwing money on the street. She felt bad.
But if a friend opens a shop, she can go over and join in the fun.
Cen Xihuai showed her the chat history on his mobile phone, and Xu Yanli transferred 10,000 yuan to her.
"Are you going? Xu Yanli's treat."
"go!"
They went as soon as they said they would, and they were very active. They went upstairs to the cloakroom to change clothes. Cen Xihuai put on his royal blue scarf again. He had only shown it off on WeChat before, so it was a good opportunity to show it off in person.
"Cen Xihuai, can you wait until my new scarf is knitted before wearing a new one? This one is really shabby, and the knot is so ugly."
"This proves even more clearly that you knitted it for me yourself."
His words reminded Xu Qingwu of a time when they changed dormitories in college. There was a girl who was as clumsy as her and wanted to knit a scarf for her boyfriend but couldn't learn how to do it. She had no choice but to pay someone to knit it for her boyfriend, and the person specifically told her that it couldn't be too perfect and had to have some traces of mistakes.
Xu Qingwu told Cen Xihuai about this, and after she finished speaking, she felt that something was amiss. She was afraid that Cen Xihuai would misunderstand that she had someone else weave it for her, so she quickly said, "It's different for me. I really weaved it myself, and Yang Yu can testify to that."
Cen Xihuai didn't mind much: "It doesn't matter even if it's not the case. It's enough that Madam is willing to spend time on me."
"You have very low expectations."
"I don't ask anything of you."
"You're really good at saying sweet words. Did you learn them secretly somewhere?"
"I'm only telling the truth." Cen Xihuai thought for a moment and added, "Besides, I have nowhere else to learn. They don't have wives, so if they want to learn, they should learn from me."
"You don't usually say things like this in front of your friends, do you?"
"Can't I tell you?"
"Stop talking..."
Xu Qingwu was really afraid that he would be beaten up by a group of people one day.
The two went out to Jiang You's lottery shop.
Having seen so many lottery shops with small storefronts, Jiang You generously rented two storefronts, which were very spacious inside.
Because the store had just opened and it was a holiday, there were not many people.
Seeing them coming, Jiang You came to greet them in person. Xu Qingwu greeted her with a smile: "Jiang Jiang, we came to show our support."
Jiang You also smiled brightly and generously: "Welcome, welcome. I just ground some coffee beans and will make you a cup of coffee."
Xu Qingwu and Cen Xihuai went to the counter to pick out scratch tickets.
Cen Xihuai was not interested in this and asked Xu Qingwu to choose. Xu Qingwu felt that she was a sly person and insisted that he choose.
Cen Xihuai directly asked the salesperson to get more than a dozen books of various categories.
Xu Qingwu was stunned: "Aren't you too extravagant?"
Cen Xihuai said calmly: "Mr. Xu will pay for it anyway."
Just then, Jiang You came over with coffee. Xu Qingwu couldn't help but glance at her. Seeing that she looked normal, she probably didn't hear it, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
Another customer came to pick a scratch-off lottery ticket, and Xu Qingwu pulled Cen Xihuai to the other table.
Xu Qingwu still had a deep psychological trauma from scratch-off lottery tickets, so she said to him, "My luck is very bad, why don't you come?"
