Chapter 61 Are you tired last night?

"I knew it was you when I saw the chess. Besides, no one I know has such good handwriting."

Her handwriting is beautiful.

Hatsushimo was delighted to be praised.

"So do you like it?"

"Of all the gifts, yours is the most suitable."

The curve of a woman's lips cannot be suppressed.

Sheng Ting looked at her, "When did you prepare it?"

"The auction."

The man nodded, pretending not to know, "It cost a lot of money, didn't it?"

If she was buying it for herself, Chu Shuang would definitely not be willing to spend the money, but she has always been generous to her friends and relatives.

Then he waved his hand generously, "It's okay, it's okay."

"Why don't you use the card I gave you?"

Since Sheng Ting gave her the card, he has never seen her spend any money on it.

Hatsushimo exclaimed, "How insincere it would be to use your own money to buy you a gift?"

Glancing at her well-informed look, Sheng Ting slowly moved his lips, "Are you my treasure cat?"

"ah?"

"I gave it to you so that you can use it, not to keep it as a collection. You don't have to help me keep the money."

Chu Shuang listened and thought the phrase "money-keeping cat" was so cute, and uttered "oh" softly.

The man picked up a chess piece with his long fingers, looked down at it carefully, and asked her, "Would you like to try it out?"

"I tried."

She said frankly: "I have tried it several times, and it feels really good."

Sheng Ting looked over and his eyes stayed on her face for two seconds.

Chu Shuang paused, "What's wrong?"

Looking at her clear eyes, she looks very smart, but sometimes she can be quite naive.

"I mean, do you want to have a sparring match?"

After reacting, Hatsushimo couldn't help but laugh, "Okay."

When Aunt Yuan came out of the kitchen, she saw two people playing chess in the living room. She smiled with relief and went back to bring out preserves and nuts.

Chu Shuang was concentrating on playing chess when she saw two plates of snacks on the table next to her. She felt warm at heart and said thank you softly to Aunt Yuan.

After eating a candied date, I saw another plate of salt-baked walnuts and picked one up.

Eat walnuts to nourish your brain, hoping that she can beat Shengting once today.

She felt a weight on the back of her feet and looked down, only to find that the little golden retriever had come over and was lying in front of her, with its little head resting lovingly on her feet.

The first frost melts my heart.

How can there be such a friendly puppy in the world?

In the past, the little golden retriever's love was equal. He liked to play with her and also liked to follow Sheng Ting. After he threw Chu Shuang and was scolded by the man last time, the little golden retriever didn't dare to get close to the man anymore.

I still need to find an opportunity to ease the relationship between them in the future, Chu Shuang thought.

I glanced secretly at the person opposite me. He was sitting like a pine tree, his chess moves were very standard, and his joints were long and beautiful.

His hands were perfectly suited to Go, and set against such a luxurious set of chess pieces, he looked like an immortal who was banished from the world.

I don't know what she was thinking about, but her ears felt hot. The consequence of her inattention was that she made several wrong moves.

Sheng Ting discovered that her chess moves today were not as stable as last time.

The walnuts on the plate were all eaten, and I picked cashews to eat as the first frost was about to cover the sky.

It seems that eating nuts cannot make people smarter in the short term.

"Why aren't you concentrating?" the man asked calmly, looking at the chessboard.

"You are such a great chess player. I only wanted to beat you... and ended up in a dead end."

“Don’t worry too much about winning or losing.”

The game ended with Chushuang losing. Even though she lost, she felt relieved that the game was over and pinched her shoulders.

Sheng Ting saw this and asked calmly, "Were you tired last night?"

The peace that had lasted the entire morning was stirred up by his light words.

It was at this moment that Chu Shuang felt that the person in front of him was the same person from last night.

Looking into his dark and calm eyes, I suddenly felt embarrassed as if I was being seen.

Actually, he went a little too far at the end last night.

"I'm not the one who's tired." She raised her eyebrows and whispered, and then she seemed a little unnatural.

Sheng Ting looked at her lively little expression, with a hint of smile in his eyes.

Burned by the teasing in his eyes, Hatsushimo looked away.

The man chuckled, "As long as you're not tired."

He smiled.

My heart suddenly started beating very fast.

"I'll get the hamster some snacks."

He slipped away after saying just one sentence.

The golden retriever was awakened by the noise after losing its human-shaped pillow. When it opened its eyes, it saw that it and its male owner were the only ones in the living room. It felt awkward for a moment and got up and went towards its mother.

Chushuang got the dog food bones and gave two to the hamster. She watched it eat happily but was thinking about other things.

"And they did."

These words have been lingering in her mind since last night, like a magic sound, popping up from time to time.

Whenever I recall his affectionate, hoarse, and commanding tone, my heart starts to feel numb and hot, and my whole body feels numb.

It turns out that there are other ways to have non-negative contact, which completely overturned her cognition.

In fact, I had done everything I needed to do last night, except for that last step.

He was hers anyway.

Thinking of this, Chu Shuang toughened up a bit and walked to the living room with the dog food can.

The golden retriever was not full, so he followed eagerly.

"You feed it."

The man looked at the can in front of him and said, "Why not just pour it into the plate and feed it to him?"

"It's a little scared of you lately, you have to coax it back into shape."

“Why should I coax it?”

"You were mean to it last time, and it still remembers it. What bad intentions does a dog have? It thinks you don't like it anymore," Chu Shuang looked at the round little golden retriever who was listening to their conversation, "Actually, it likes you very much, you can coax it."

Seeing that the man didn't seem to care much, Chu Shuang put the can directly in his hand and signaled with her eyes.

Sheng Ting looked at her, opened the lid, took out one and held it in his hand.

When the little golden retriever saw it, he stared at the small bone, and his tail wagged and then slowly dropped to the ground.

The look of wanting to go forward but not daring to.

"Hamster, go ahead." Hatsushiro patted its head.

The young man looked at the soft-voiced hostess, slowly walked forward a few steps, but still hesitated.

Sheng Ting said: "Come here."

Chu Shuang pretended to be surprised, "He called you, go quickly."

The little golden retriever raised its head and gently took the small bone from Sheng Ting's hand. The moment it successfully ate it, it shook its tail in an arc very quickly and its eyes were shining brightly.

The puppy is happy.

Sheng Ting gave it another one.

Hatsushimo was watching beside them with a smile on her face.

Why does looking at the puppy give me the same feeling as looking at my past self?

When they first got married, she hadn't changed her mindset yet. She always treated him as a serious elder and was hesitant and distant from him. Later...

Later, it seemed that Sheng Ting brought her roses and gifts when he returned from his first business trip. He began to get along with her patiently and said that he was not a scary person.

Gradually, the first frost approached him.

After eating several of them, she said to Sheng Ting, "Pet its head."

The man did as he was told.

The golden retriever happily trotted and jumped around Chushuang, then ran back to Shengting and wagged its tail vigorously.

Sheng Ting glanced at the silly and happy furry child. It was true that a pet resembles its owner. The child's silliness was just like its owner.

He reached out and smoothed its fur, stuffed the last small bone into it, and said, "Don't be so reckless in the future."
