Chu Qi was such a perceptive person that she had already noticed the girl's sneaky glances.
She ate very slowly, chewing every bite carefully. This way of eating was very pretty.
At least--
Meng Xi was so fascinated that he was stunned.
Time passed by unknowingly. When Chu Qi finished the last bite of noodles and stood up, Meng Xi's eyes flashed with a bit of confusion.
"Have you finished eating?" Chu Qi rolled up her sleeves, revealing a thin and white wrist bone, and she was ready to clean up the dishes.
Meng Xi blinked and came back to her senses. She couldn't help but feel annoyed that she had been in a daze in front of him too many times!
Will he think I'm mentally ill?
She subconsciously blamed herself in her heart. She stood up hurriedly and tried to take the instant noodle bowl and chopsticks in front of the boy:
"Let me clean it up!"
"There's no point in asking the guests to clean up."
Chu Qi smiled, then reached out her hand——
The boy's fingers seemed to want to grab the bowl and chopsticks, but the girl's fingers blocked them, so he pressed his fingers on the back of the girl's hand and finger bones.
The boy's skin, with a hint of warmth, wrapped around the girl's slightly cold slender fingers.
The fingers were pressed against each other, transmitting their body temperature to each other.
Meng Xi's eyes trembled, her fingers shook, and she almost dropped the bowl in her hand.
Chu Qi wrapped the girl's hands even tighter to prevent the soup from accidentally spilling.
"Give it to me," he said, and then slightly relaxed his grip.
"Oh, okay."
Meng Xi placed the bowl and chopsticks firmly on the table and carefully withdrew her fingers. The back of her hand that was touched the most by the boy seemed to still retain the boy's warm touch.
She suddenly lowered her eyelids, not daring to continue looking at the boy.
Chu Qi poured the soup from both bowls into the drain of the sink, then picked up the filter and poured the remaining vegetable residue from the instant noodle soup into the trash can.
After eating the instant noodles, only about half an hour had passed.
There is still half an hour left before the agreed hour.
Chu Qi invited Meng Xi to watch TV with him to relieve his boredom.
But when he saw the sofa, his mind inevitably recalled the scene he saw last night.
There were a lot of charming men's clothes thrown on the sofa.
Chu Qi felt a little nauseous. He asked Meng Xi to wait for a moment, then took off the sofa cover and replaced it with a new one.
Sitting on the new sofa cover, Meng Xi's eyes showed big question marks.
——Is Chu Qi’s tutor so strict?
They even changed the sofa cover specially for the guests? ?
The original owner's family rarely watched TV.
Rather than being used for viewing, it is more like an expansion of furniture.
Although it is not watched much, the TV is well protected by the original owner's mother. It is covered with a layer of dustproof cloth and wiped regularly, so it is kept very clean.
Chu Qi pulled open the dust cover, picked up the remote control from the TV table, and pressed the power button.
A long boot time passed.
I don’t know what program it was on, it was pitch black at the beginning.
Chu Qi watched patiently, and then she saw two white pieces on the TV, accompanied by an indescribable painful accompaniment, and the program began...
Chu Qi: "......"
Meng Xi opened her eyes wide, like a curious baby. After reading the content clearly, she said: "......"
After half a second of silence, Chu Qi reacted and hurriedly tried to turn off the TV, but accidentally pressed the volume button.
She watched the volume button rise from an acceptable 20 to 60 like a rocket.
This time, not only her family, but even the two families next door must have heard it!
What is social death?
That's it!
Chu Qi could hardly hold back her ability to cover her face. With trembling fingertips, she finally managed to press the power button.
When the TV screen went dark, the living room fell into deathly silence.
Chu Qi understood what was going on almost immediately. It must have been the gay couple from yesterday who saw it.
I don’t know how to change it after watching it...!
She almost didn't dare to look Meng Xi in the face, and she stiffened her body and pretended to be an NPC who was offline.
Meng Xi immediately recalled the painful memories of that night.
Her originally relaxed expression was tinged with anxiety and pain. She pressed her head hard with her slender fingers, trying to push back the memories in her mind.
Don't come out, don't think about it...
The corners of her eyes were wet with her hair, and she bit her lips tightly to prevent herself from sobbing.
How could I not care?
That's forced!
She had been trying her best to avoid remembering the specific details, and when she was with Chu Qi she also tried her best not to think about what happened that night.
But the disgusting scene just now clearly brought out what she had tried so hard to hide.
It hurt so much, her body seemed to have returned to the horrific experience of that night.
Just like people who have lost their legs occasionally experience phantom limb pain.
Meng Xi felt a dull pain in a place that had not hurt before.
Chu Qi heard Meng Xi's whimpering, and turned around to find that her face was pale and her lips were bitten with deep marks.
Chu Qi went forward and hugged her, pressing her face to his chest, whispering sorry over and over again.
The boy's soft and warm voice was completely different from his out-of-control behavior that night.
Chu Qi...is different from him.
Meng Xi opened his arms, looking as fragile as a young animal trapped in barbed wire, and slowly but firmly hugged the waist of the person in front of him.
Just like a young animal that knows that the barbed wire is set by humans, but still chooses to trust humans, carefully stretching out its paw pads and placing them on the humans.
The cub realized that the culprit who caused it to be trapped was saving it.
