"Oh? Thank me?" Ren Tingxi raised his chin proudly and looked down at Lan Xiaolan.
"I remember when we were in Graphite Village in S City, you said you wanted to thank me and treat me to a meal."
"Didn't you have a meal with my dad during the Mid-Autumn Festival? Didn't I thank you then?"
Ren Tingxi pinched her nose hard, came closer, and said coolly: "Those were dishes your father paid for. At best, you can only say that they were treated by your uncle. How can you be blamed for it?"
Lan Xiaolan pinched her nose and pushed him angrily.
"Well... I paid for the hot pot meal we had just at noon, so I guess that should be considered a treat for you."
Ren Tingxi chuckled and curled his lips, then stepped closer, holding her slender waist, and touching her forehead with his head, and said in a teasing manner: "That was the meal I cooked, so it doesn't count."
"Hmph... then... I'll wait until next time and thank you together."
He had obviously done a great thing for her, but this little hedgehog not only wanted to deny it, but was also angry. How could Ren Tingxi let her go?
He stroked her back, pulled her into a hug, and quickly placed a hard kiss on her lips.
"Ren Tingxi, what are you doing? You're right in front of someone's house."
"Besides, it's broad daylight, and you're kissing me in public like that."
He smiled mischievously and thought to himself: I want to kiss my wife, no matter when and where.
"If you don't feel comfortable doing it during the day, how about going back tonight and I'll kiss you properly, okay?"
"You can't deny your debt. You should thank me properly!"
Lan Xiaolan stepped hard on Ren Tingxi and pushed him away with one hand: "Rogue!"
She was originally angry and wanted to escape, but the long white strip pulled her back. Ren Tingxi took advantage of the situation and hugged her in his arms from behind again.
"Look, the little white rabbit wants to escape again, right?"
When I got home, the workers who were doing the renovations had already finished their work.
No one dared to neglect what Mr. Ren had instructed, so they worked hard to complete the work and waited for Mr. Ren and Lan Xiaolan to come back and inspect their new house.
From a distance, you can see the dilapidated loess house, which is painted with waterproof and heat-insulating materials and looks neatly white.
The two huge windows have been widened and equipped with iron frames and glass windows, and a stainless steel door has even been installed at the entrance.
In the morning, all the miscellaneous furniture and items that Lan Xiaolan bought at the market were cleared out and placed outside the door.
After walking in, Lan Xiaolan was amazed by the appearance of the new house.
The bed made of weeds had long been removed and replaced with a snow-white, soft and comfortable 2-meter bed with double pillows, quilts and sheets already laid out.
The floor was coated with brown waterproof and anti-slip material. Ren Tingxi remembered the scene when Lan Xiaolan accidentally slipped while taking a bath in the homestay, so he specifically instructed that the entire floor of the house must be made of waterproof material.
The dilapidated earthen stove and the pitiful drain have been covered with white tiles.
The stove has been installed with modern combustion equipment. Although the bathroom is not large, it is fully equipped with a mirror, sink and shower.
There is a storage shelf installed on the stove, which is filled with various kitchen utensils and seasonings.
There was actually a small refrigerator installed next to it. When Lan Xiaolan looked over, she saw it was full of food and some drinks that she couldn't name.
Under the bed at the corner, there is a long desk with two office chairs in front of it.
The computer power port, desk lamp, bookshelf, and pencil case have all been neatly arranged.
With this office area, Lan Xiaolan and Ren Tingxi can prepare for postgraduate entrance exams and work here with peace of mind.
A wardrobe with hand-carved patterns of local characteristics was placed at the head of the bed. Lan Xiaolan and Ren Tingxi's clothes were neatly folded and hung inside according to their categories.
There was not much space left in the middle of the house, so a folding dining table was placed right next to the bed.
Before Ren Tingxi came back, he had already reminded Leng Lie to prepare the meal early. Now two bowls of hot white rice, two dishes and a soup were placed on the dining table.
This room may be small, but it has everything!
Lan Xiaolan was standing inside, stunned. She was impressed by the efficiency of Ren Tingxi's assistant and kept giving Leng Lie a thumbs up.
"Wow!"
"Wow!"
"Oh my God." Lan Xiaolan exclaimed three times in a row.
"It's just one afternoon, isn't this a bit too much?"
Leng Leng just nodded with a smile, his hands crossed in front of him as if nothing had happened, his expression calm and composed.
"These are all minor matters, all arranged by President Ren. We are just following orders."
Lan Xiaolan looked at Leng Lie, then at Ren Tingxi, who looked calm and satisfied.
"Mr. Ren, I brought your computer with me. I wonder if you will be…"
"Just live here!" He said it without hesitation, in a stern and accurate tone, leaving no room for doubt or rebuttal.
Leng Lie nodded quickly and put down all of Ren Tingxi's belongings: "Then I won't disturb you two anymore. I wish you a happy meal."
After closing the door, the two ambiguous people were left in the room again.
Lan Xiaolan was spinning around, still admiring her new home. When she first arrived yesterday, it was like a dilapidated building, covered in dust and with nothing in it.
Looking at the house now, it seemed as if hundreds of years had passed in just one afternoon. She was fascinated by it.
Suddenly, a pair of strong arms picked her up like a princess, and that handsome and beautiful face, with lustful eyes, was staring at her.
Lan Xiaolan was afraid of falling, so her slender hands naturally hooked around his neck, pressing against Ren Tingxi's attractive and handsome face.
“What…what are you doing?”
"Do you want to find something to eat now? Or do you want to thank me first? Huh?" Before he finished speaking, he had already walked towards the big bed.
Thank you? I do need to thank you, but how should I thank you? Should I thank you like this?
No, no, no! Lan Xiaolan's shy face had already exploded red, and she kept refusing by waving her hands and kicking her feet.
"Eat! Of course I have to eat! I...I...I...I've been hungry for a long time."
The little white rabbit, who was being held in the grip of the big bad wolf, was so panicked that he started to stutter.
Ren Tingxi smiled evilly, put her on the stool at the dining table, and stopped teasing her.
The two sat at the dining table and had a sumptuous dinner together in a foreign country. Lan Xiaolan felt incredible and satisfied.
Lying in bed together at night, they were surprisingly calm. Ren Tingxi just held her hand and did not do anything else inappropriate.
More than half a year had passed, and she was actually lying in the same bed with Ren Tingxi again. Her palms were sweating, and she was so nervous that she could hardly sleep.
"Tomorrow, I'll take you somewhere."
"Hmm? Where to?"
"You'll find out tomorrow."
