Chapter 162 Gnawing on Duck Collarbone
"Xu Songning, let me tell you, if you don't have a good excuse for not replying to my messages last night, you're dead!"
As soon as the door opened, Zhou Qiao's cursing voice came in.
Zhou Qiao had her back to Xiang Yun, and only turned around when she heard the door open. "Hmph! Do you want to sleep in any later? You..."
Xu Songning was too late to stop it all. She threw off the covers and got out of bed. What kind of mess is this?!
Zhou Qiao looked at Xiang Yun, who was wearing pajamas with one button undone at the chest, revealing her collarbone loosely with a suspicious red mark on it. She pondered for a long time but couldn't figure it out.
Didn't they have a fight? Didn't they confess everything? Why is he sleeping here?!
Her gaze was too direct. Xiang Yun looked down and saw that there were red marks on his collarbone, along with a few teeth marks.
"..."
Did you dream about gnawing on his collarbone like a duck's?
"Captain Xiang!"
"Qiaoqiao!"
Xu Songning appeared disheveled and faced Zhou Qiao, who was on the verge of collapse. Xiang Yun consciously gave up his seat, saying, "You two chat, I'm going to brush my teeth."
"My dear Qiaoqiao, you go in first." Xu Songning made a gesture, with a fake smile on his face.
Zhou Qiao sat on the sofa with her arms crossed, "Tell me honestly, what happened?!"
Xu Songning poured her a glass of water and vaguely explained what had happened yesterday, emphasizing that nothing had happened between them! However, Xiang Yun was about to become her roommate.
“Roommates, you guys really know how to have fun.” Zhou Qiao gave her a thumbs up. “It has to be you, Xu Songning, who managed to turn the tide. Luckily, Captain Xiang likes you enough, otherwise he wouldn’t have forgiven you so quickly.”
“If he didn’t like me, I wouldn’t be so proactive. Good men are hard to come by, so you have to seize the opportunity, and so do you,” Xu Songning said with a smile.
Zhou Qiao leaned back on the sofa, propping her head up as she looked at her. "A good man? You mean Qin You?"
“I didn’t say who it was, but if you can’t shake off this tail, you can forget about finding anyone else.” Xu Songning poked her forehead.
Zhou Qiao leaned back, looking helpless. "So annoying, men are so annoying."
"Xu Songning, it's almost time for work." Xiang Yun changed her clothes, put on an apron, and planned to make her breakfast. Seeing that Zhou Qiao was still there, she politely asked her, "Want to eat together, Boss Zhou?"
"No need!" Zhou Qiao waved her hand and pointed downstairs. "Someone's been waiting for me. I just wanted to see why Song Ning wasn't replying to my messages; I was a little worried about her. But since you two are roommates now, I'll leave her with you. I'm relieved!"
"Roommate?" Xiang Yun glanced at Xu Songning.
Xu Songning quickly added, "He's not just my roommate, he's also my boyfriend."
"Oh~ it's still my boyfriend." Zhou Qiao nodded with a smile, and was about to reach for her water glass when she noticed a pair of Jokers on the coffee table. She picked them up in surprise, "Hey, you have these cards here? What a coincidence! Why didn't you come to claim your prize that day?"
"Because there are little liars." Xiang Yun started cooking noodles. Cooking noodles was an easy task for him, and he could finish it quickly.
"Ahem, I only found out after I got back." Xu Songning tugged at her sleeve, desperately trying to signal her not to bring up that sore spot again!
Zhou Qiao nodded knowingly, "Okay, I'll go now, you guys continue cooking."
The upward inflection in his voice suggests that he's not talking about cooking.
Xu Songning escorted Zhou Qiao to the door, and Zhou Qiao whispered mysteriously in his ear, "I have a belated gift for you!"
"What gift? A gift from a card game? Forget it, it's fine." Xu Songning leaned against the door and laughed. They were such good friends, why would they need a gift like that?
"You wouldn't understand, don't worry! I've got it covered." Zhou Qiao patted her chest.
She raised her hand, and Xu Songning then noticed that she was wearing a new watch that looked very familiar. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was the same watch they had seen at Breitling that day.
"The new watch is nice." Xu Songning looked her over teasingly, "Good progress."
Zhou Qiao pulled her hand back as if she'd been electrocuted, and touched the new watch. "Hey, it's nothing special, not as nice as the one you bought for Captain Xiang. So, did you give it to him?"
"Yes, he wore it today."
"I didn't look closely,"
"What's wrong? Is he that scary? Wasn't he supposed to be handsome? He's my boyfriend, feel free to look around," Xu Songning said generously.
Zhou Qiao covered her eyes. "You're quite generous, huh? Just don't nibble on collarbones next time, it's easy for someone to see."
She beckoned, her expression reluctant, "Songning, come here, I want to whisper something to you."
"What's wrong?" Xu Songning leaned closer to listen.
Zhou Qiao whispered, "Don't bite the most obvious spots next time!"
"What did she bite?" Xu Songning asked in surprise. Where did she bite yesterday? Wasn't she sleeping peacefully?
Zhou Qiao thought she was pretending to be stupid, pointed to her collarbone, shook her head and walked away.
Xu Songning walked into the kitchen, half understanding and half not. Xiang Yun was scooping noodles. Seeing that she hadn't washed up yet, he called to her, "Xu Songning, go wash up."
"Okay, but you have some dirt on your face." Xu Songning beckoned with his finger.
Xiang Yun thought there was something dirty on her face, so she leaned over and asked her to help wipe it off.
Xu Songning twisted her finger, hooked it around his collar, and gently tugged, tearing the button open.
"Sister Xu, are you being indecent?" Xiang Yun grabbed her misbehaving arm with one hand.
"Look at your collarbone." Xu Songning pulled open his collar and sure enough, she saw several teeth marks and obvious red marks. Such ambiguous marks made her too embarrassed to look. She covered her face and said, "Did I bite you?"
"I don't know which rat bit her." Xiang Yun let go of her hand and put the noodles on the table.
Xu Songning snorted and went into the bathroom to brush his teeth.
Xiang Yun first brought over some toiletries. The face wash was placed next to hers, the toothbrush and cup were paired together, and the face towel was hung on a clean horizontal bar.
Xu Songning enjoyed seeing Xiang Yun's things gradually fill her space; seeing his things displayed in the house made her feel less lonely.
Xiang Yun's noodles were slightly better than Xu Songning's. After being tortured by his cooking skills, Xu Songning could eat anything, but he was a little concerned about Xiang Yun's cooking. He felt he needed to learn how to cook noodles systematically.
"Which car are you driving?" Xiang Yun asked her.
Xu Songning stood in front of the mirror, tidying her hair. She took a light-colored hair clip from the hair clip rack and clipped it to the back of her head. "Open it however you like."
Xiang Yun walked over and squeezed her hair clip hard. "It's not very safe."
"It's okay. It's not safe to fall. I'll just be careful." Xu Songning adjusted her hair. "Wearing hair clips is more comfortable. My hair won't fall around my neck and it won't irritate it."
Their shifts were close together, so Xiang Yun could wait at the airport for an hour until Xu Songning got off work. Today, they drove Xu Songning's car out.
Xu Songning's car is easily recognizable. As soon as their car entered the garage, the car next to them started beeping.
