Chapter 59 I can't look at his abs anymore
Xu Songning clicked his tongue, "I never expected you to be like this, Brother Yun."
"I never expected you to be like this, Sister Xu." Xiang Yun closed the car door for her, and started the car amidst her clicking her tongue in disapproval.
"Brother Yun, your aloof image in my heart has completely collapsed," Xu Songning said, adding in her mind that her abstinent image had also collapsed. Ever since she found out that Xiang Yun was Mr. X, she couldn't look at his abs and waist the same way anymore. She had locked up all the photos she had saved. What a terrifying V-shaped waist!
"Then let it collapse," Xiang Yun said casually.
"Should we buy the little guy a cage? What will it do when we go out to eat?" Xu Songning thought about this question while holding the cat.
Xiang Yun focused on driving; he had anticipated this situation. "There's a cat carrier in the trunk. I'll put it in the car later, with the windows open for ventilation. There won't be any problems."
Xu Songning looked at Xiang Yun as if she were looking at Doraemon. Xiang Yun was just too omnipotent. He could think of everything she couldn't. It was so comfortable to be with someone like him.
"Brother Yun, has anyone ever told you that you're a good person?"
Xiang Yun answered truthfully: "No."
"No? Then I can be number one. You're really great," Xu Songning said with a smile.
Xiang Yun gripped the steering wheel tightly, his muscles tensing slightly. Strangely enough, Xu Songning's words made him feel embarrassed. He coughed lightly but didn't respond; he didn't know how to respond.
Fortunately, Xu Songning didn't insist that he respond to the praise, and instead lowered his head to play with Sanhua's paws.
So he didn't see the smile on Xu Songning's lips or the cunning in his eyes. Such a good person, now that he'd caught him, he couldn't let him go so easily.
Even if the timing of their first meeting wasn't quite right, what does it matter? They can just pretend it never happened, since Xiang Yun doesn't know about it yet anyway.
So what if I know?
Xu Songning has always been someone who lives for the moment, and she has no intention of giving this person away to anyone else.
When they arrived at their destination, Xiang Yun took Sanhua from her arms. Sanhua did not resist and melted into a puddle of water in his hands, letting him grab her and stuff her into the cat carrier.
The calico cat lay in its carrier, licking its nose every now and then.
"Mommy will come pick you up later." Xu Songning nodded Sanhua's little head.
Xiang Yun raised an eyebrow and asked cryptically, "You're the mother, so what about me?"
Xu Songning tilted her head and looked at him, her silver teeth flashing in a bright smile, "You are the older brother."
"Xu Songning, are you lowering my seniority?" Xiang Yun raised his hand and lightly tapped her forehead. He didn't use any force, but Xu Songning pretended to be hit and took a few steps back. Just as she was about to hit the car door, Xiang Yun grabbed her waist in time and pulled her back.
The hand clasped around her waist was warm and strong, its palm gently encircling her waist.
This was the first time she had ever felt the two of them intimately embracing in a casual setting. Although it was an accident, she felt at ease. Xiang Yun's body was warm, even in winter. She secretly thought to herself, "That dog of a man has such a good body."
Xiang Yun helped her steady and then let go. The last time he hugged her was because of the fate of Sanhua. At that time, he was not in the mood to feel anything. It was not until this time, when Xu Songning's supple waist was really pressed in his hands, that he felt a sense of reality.
The two, each lost in their own thoughts, entered the restaurant.
The waiter led them into a private room, which was specially customized for the two of them. The window opened to reveal a small courtyard with swaying green bamboo and a babbling brook, which was very peaceful.
Xu Songning sat down, his gaze lingering on the view outside the window. It was truly soothing to the eyes. Having grown accustomed to city scenery, he never expected a restaurant to have such a clever touch.
"What would you like to eat?" Xiang Yun picked out two dishes and handed her the menu.
Xu Songning took the order and saw that Xiang Yun had ordered two spicy dishes. "Brother Yun, where are you from? How can you eat so much spicy food?"
“Before, when I was in Shenzhen, the food in Guangdong was light. I take after my mom and can eat spicy food,” Xiang Yun replied.
"Then how did you know I also eat spicy food?" Xu Songning's eyes peeked out from behind the menu, staring straight at her.
cute.
Xiang Yun gently rubbed the tip of his nose. "I guessed."
"You guessed pretty accurately." Xu Songning continued looking at the menu.
Xiang Yun lowered his head and took a sip of tea. Actually, it was a takeout bag that Xu Songning had left at the door one day. He glanced at it and knew it was a takeout from a nearby Hunan restaurant.
After ordering the main courses, Xu Songning added a lotus root and pork rib soup and stir-fried seasonal vegetables. After returning the menu to the waiter, the private room fell silent.
"Brother Yun, I saw your ex-girlfriend at the hospital last time. She had a fracture, right? When did she fall? How long did it take to heal?" Xu Songning asked seemingly casually. She added, "Oh, I have a friend who also fractured a bone. I wanted to ask about other people's recovery, but I don't have any friends like that, so I thought of your ex-girlfriend."
Xiang Yun twirled the teacup with his fingers, his gaze falling on her face, following the fluttering of her eyelashes.
"Are you interested in my ex-girlfriend, Xu Songning?" Xiang Yun called her by her full name. He had called her that before, but this time, it inexplicably made people feel a sense of crisis.
"It's not about her, it's about the recovery of her fracture," Xu Songning replied guiltily, but his expression remained impassive.
She actually had a guess in her mind. After calculating the time, she suspected that Mr. X left early that day because his ex-girlfriend had broken her leg. She wanted to find out the truth about this.
"About a hundred days," Xiang Yun replied.
This answer is too vague. It does seem to date back to the time when bars held masquerade parties, but it's difficult to speculate on any further details.
She wanted to probe further, but Xiang Yun changed the subject, "Tell me about your ex-boyfriend, I'm interested too."
"Cough cough!" Xu Songning choked on the water. What? She couldn't have heard wrong, could she?
"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient to talk about it?" Xiang Yun looked at her with a slightly cold gaze. He had heard Xu Songning mention her briefly before, and only knew that she was also a pilot. He didn't know any other details, but this time Xu Songning pressed him about his ex-girlfriend, as if it were a game of strategy, and he subconsciously didn't want to lose.
That's so weird. The two of them came here to eat, but they ended up talking about their ex-girlfriends and ex-boyfriends at the table.
It's all his fault. Xu Songning was exhausted. His method of probing wasn't very clever. He probably had something on his mind that night. Why did he have to know what it was? By asking, he had gotten himself into trouble.
During the ambiguous stage of a relationship, talking about each other's exes is extremely risky. If you accidentally step on someone's sore spot, the ambiguous period is probably over.
"How about we order another drink? I think I forgot to order anything." Xu Songning reached for the menu but couldn't move it.
One finger rests on the menu, and following that slender finger upwards is the back of the hand, which exudes strength, with slightly bulging veins. The cuffs are tightened, concealing the sense of power within the narrow sleeves.
"Is this really inconvenient?" Xiang Yun asked lazily.
