Chapter 166 Let’s go see a movie
Chu Shuang hung up the phone without saying much to him. A moment later, another call came in.
She picked up the phone, "I'd be better off not seeing you now. Stop calling me. I'll be fine tomorrow. Go to sleep."
【It will be fine tomorrow.】
Hearing this, Sheng Ting felt even more upset. He had made her sad, and she had to digest it alone.
"I'm asking you if you want to have a midnight snack. I'll have someone bring some up." The man spoke in a hoarse voice.
"No."
Neither of them got much sleep that night.
Sheng Ting did not return to his room all night, and the ashtray in the sofa area was full of cigarette butts.
At daybreak he heard the movement of the man lying on his side and immediately sat up.
With a click, the bedroom door unlocked and a woman came out in a suspender pajamas. Sheng Ting followed her gaze.
Hatsushimo: "Morning."
Seeing the man on the sofa, she only stopped for a moment.
"Good morning." Sheng Ting stood up.
Hatsushimo walked past the sofa area and her brows wrinkled slightly when she smelled the smoke.
Sheng Ting waved away the smell of smoke in the air and immediately went to open the window.
Hatsushimo picked up the charger that had fallen on the sofa. Seeing her lowering her eyes to charge, the man spoke hoarsely, "Order you breakfast?"
She curled her lips and said, "Okay."
She was gentle and polite, but she didn't look at him.
Sheng Ting also noticed that her eyes were a little swollen and her thin lips opened and closed a few times, but he still didn't say anything else.
I called to order breakfast and looked at Hatsushimo, who was reading a book.
Silently looking at his wrinkled clothes that he hadn't changed all night, Sheng Ting went to wash off the smell of cigarettes.
When I came out again, Chu Shuang was still reading.
He walked over and sat next to her. "What are you looking at?"
"Geographical Magazine." Hatsushimo turned another page.
Glancing at her curled eyelashes, Sheng Ting reached out for the snacks on the coffee table and tore them open.
"Eat candied dates."
Chu Shuang took a look at the moist dates in the man's hand and reached out to take them.
Watching her eat the dates, Sheng Ting finally felt a little relieved.
"...Did you sleep well last night?"
"OK."
Both parties knew that this conversation was fake, but no one broke the peace.
The page of the magazine in her hand showed an endless desert. She was reading it intently, seemingly lost in thought.
Sheng Ting watched, his lowered hand slowly reaching behind the woman, and just as he was about to reach her shoulder, the doorbell rang.
The staff brought in breakfast.
He ordered a rich meal, which included breakfast and a few elegant lotus flowers.
Chu Shuang smelled it and the man asked her if it smelled good, and she said yes.
The room was a little quiet, so she turned on the TV and ate breakfast.
There was a talk show playing on TV. Occasionally, when she saw something funny, she would chuckle, which often attracted Sheng Ting's attention.
After breakfast, he asked her if she wanted to go out and play, and Hatsushimo said she was a little sleepy and wanted to catch up on some sleep.
Knowing that she didn't sleep well last night, Sheng Ting didn't say anything.
After breakfast, she unplugged the charger and went back to lie on her side.
The TV was turned off. Sheng Ting sat in the quiet living room for a while, curling his knuckles slightly and then slowly releasing them.
After thinking for a moment, he made a phone call.
"Help me buy something."
…
When Hatsushimo said she was going to catch up on some sleep, she really meant it. When she woke up in her room, it was already afternoon.
Sheng Ting stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the bamboo forest painting she gave him.
I turned around when I heard the sound. The man looked at me gently and asked, "Are you dizzy?"
"It's not bad."
"There's iced juice with lots of your favorite coconut flesh."
Hatsushimo nodded, picked up the juice and took a sip. It was clear, sweet and very delicious.
"How about going out to see a movie tonight?" the man asked.
"good."
