Chapter 213 Zhizhi, do you want to eat?
Shen Xubai acted as if he and Gu Zhiyuan were one of each other. He spoke in a friendly tone and drew a clear line between them in just a few words.
He, Gu Zhiyuan, and them.
Cheng Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly and agreed happily: "Okay, I wanted to invite them both to dinner."
Shen Xubai narrowed his eyes and said in an ambiguous tone: "That's perfect."
Gu Yunyi couldn't say no, because no one cared about his opinion from beginning to end.
Chen Xubai: "Zhizhi and I were originally planning to go to a western restaurant. Since you two are coming together, I know a place with good private dishes. Do you mind?"
Cheng Zhao: "Of course not."
Gu Yunyi: "Okay."
So, the four of them went to a private restaurant together.
On the way, Gu Zhiyuan got directly into Shen Xubai's car, while Gu Yunyi and Cheng Zhao drove themselves.
Gu Zhiyuan sat in the passenger seat and secretly glanced at Chen Xubai. She always felt that he was weird today.
Shen Xubai gripped the steering wheel, his bony fingers tapping lightly, his profile stern.
You don't seem happy? Is work going badly?
"Zhizhi."
"ah?"
When Gu Zhiyuan glanced at him for who knows how many times, Shen Xubai finally spoke.
Gu Zhiyuan thought she was caught peeping at him, and she shuddered with fear, feeling a little guilty: "What's wrong?"
Shen Xubai looked ahead, pursing his thin lips: "You said you wanted to watch the game today, so it was his?"
Gu Zhiyuan nodded: "Yes."
"After the blind date that day, did you guys still keep in touch?"
Gu Zhiyuan said truthfully: "There are some occasionally, but not many."
At first, they talked about what they would say to their families after returning home. Later, Cheng Zhao would occasionally complain that his family continued to urge him to go on blind dates, but not often. The next time he did, he would invite her to watch the game.
Shen Xubai's jawline tightened slightly: "You like racing too?"
Gu Zhiyuan tilted her head. "I can't say I like it, but I have some understanding of it. It's mainly because Gu Yunyi likes it. It's also quite exciting, passionate and energetic. It's quite novel to watch it occasionally."
"Really?" Shen Xubai's tone was inexplicable.
Gu Zhiyuan raised her eyes and looked at him: "What's wrong, don't you like it? That's right, you probably don't like this kind of sport."
"So what should I like?"
Gu Zhiyuan said without hesitation: "Probably running, mountain climbing, golf and the like. Few people your age like racing."
Shen Xubai lowered his eyes, his gaze slightly gloomy.
They soon arrived at the place to eat. Before getting off the car, Gu Zhiyuan was about to unbuckle his seat belt when he was stopped by Shen Xubai.
"etc."
"What's wrong?"
As soon as Gu Zhiyuan finished asking, Shen Xubai leaned over.
She looked at the handsome face that was getting closer and closer, smelling the fresh scent on his body, and suddenly held her breath, her long and thick eyelashes trembling slightly.
Gu Zhiyuan swallowed. Could it be that he wanted to kiss her?
Warm breath fell on the side of his face. Gu Zhiyuan stared at Shen Xu Baifei's thin lips and blinked. His lips looked so kissable.
She slowly closed her eyes, and the next second, Shen Xubai stopped less than a centimeter in front of her cheek, tilted his head away, reached out to tidy up the hair by her ear, and whispered, "Your hair is caught."
Gu Zhiyuan suddenly opened his eyes, and a hint of surprise and shame flashed in his eyes.
Shen Xubai supported himself on her side with one hand, lowered his eyes to look at her, his voice slightly deep, with a hint of sexy hoarseness: "What's wrong?"
He deliberately lowered his voice, with a hint of allure.
Gu Zhiyuan raised her hand to push him away. Just untie her hair, why are you seducing her?
She almost made a fool of herself.
Shen Xubai was pushed away by her and leaned back in his chair, his eyes slightly raised, and a rare sense of relaxation appeared between his eyebrows.
Diagonally in front of them, Cheng Zhao had already parked the car and was standing in front of it looking at them.
…
When getting off the car, Gu Zhiyuan's fair face was flushed.
Embarrassed, and angry.
She walked in without waiting for Shen Xubai. Looking at her angry back, Shen Xubai put his hands leisurely in his pockets and followed slowly behind her.
Gu Yunyi asked, "Why is your face so red?"
Gu Zhiyuan said unhappily, "It's hot!"
"It's so hot? Are you getting heat stroke?"
Gu Zhiyuan really wanted to give him a blow.
Cheng Zhao and Shen Xubai were walking in almost the same pace. He tilted his head and asked, "Mr. Shen and Zhi Yuan's relationship seems to be different from last time?"
Hearing his address, Shen Xubai slowly raised his eyelids, his dark eyes lightly sweeping over him, a moment of coldness. His tone was very light, yet with a certain determination: "Of course."
After entering the private room, the waiter came with the menu and asked everyone to order. Shen Xubai ordered a few dishes that Gu Zhiyuan liked, and then let the other two people order.
Gu Zhiyuan looked at the last dessert and was eager to eat: "Another ice cream."
"No need for ice cream, let's have freshly squeezed juice instead." Shen Xubai held her hand and said to the waiter.
Gu Zhiyuan said reluctantly: "I just want ice cream."
The waiter looked embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
Shen Xubai turned around, looked at her slightly furrowed brows, and said softly, "You've been eating too much recently. You can't eat anymore. It's not good for your health."
Somehow, Gu Zhiyuan wanted to contradict him: "It's so hot, I just want to eat."
"obedient."
Chen Xubai Qingjun's cold brows softened, and his voice became gentle, with a hint of doting.
Gu Zhiyuan couldn't resist at all, and immediately stopped: "Okay."
Gu Yunyi was stunned. When did his sister become so obedient? Wasn't she being taken advantage of?
He opened his mouth in surprise, but when he met Shen Xubai's gloomy gaze, he immediately closed it and said with a wry smile, "Indeed, girls can't eat too much cold food."
Cheng Zhao picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip, then chuckled and said, “Boss Shen should know a lot about health preservation.”
"However, the lifestyles of us young people are different. It's okay to be unhealthy occasionally. If you feel good, your body will naturally be healthy."
"Besides, girls just love ice cream and stuff."
Shen Xubai narrowed his eyes, tapping his slender fingers on the table, his expression normal.
After a few seconds, he glanced at Gu Zhiyuan: "Zhizhi, do you want to eat?"
Gu Zhiyuan looked at this and that, and also noticed the unusual atmosphere. She looked at Shen Xubai's calm eyes and felt inexplicably scared.
"No...I can't."
Her intuition told her not to eat it.
Shen Xu raised the corners of his eyes slightly, glanced at Cheng Zhao lightly, slowly picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
Cheng Zhao pursed his lips and laughed slowly again: "Boss Shen and Zhi Yuan are like this. It reminds me of when my uncle was taking care of my little cousin. It was the same."
"He spoke with great sincerity and concern."
Gu Zhiyuan frowned unconsciously, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
Just as she was about to speak, Shen Xubai had already raised his hand to add more tea to her tea, and said calmly: "Really? Indeed, Zhizhi is still young, I should take care of her more."
"There are some things that I should help her with. For example, making friends."
When he said this, Shen Xubai's eyes were already a little fierce, and the look he gave Cheng Zhao was filled with a cold, oppressive feeling, as well as scrutiny.
Feeling the gaze falling on him, Cheng Zhao tightened his grip on the cup and his eyes dimmed imperceptibly.
He took a deep breath and smiled, "Zhi Yuan is an adult and has his own judgment. Mr. Shen is worrying too much."
