Zhou Zuizui blinked, feeling the coolness of her lips and the sensation from the previous touch. After drinking the water, she said without hesitation, "It's...it's alright."
Shen Nan chuckled softly, gently kissed her lips, and whispered, "Want some more?"
Zhou Zuizui: "..."
In the end, the two of them finished the whole bottle of water by feeding each other on the playground. Of course, about one-fifth of it probably slipped down their necks and leaked out.
People nearby were making a fuss, but they didn't care at all and were quite unrestrained.
However, they didn't go too far. After a short while, Shen Nan and Zhou Zuizui left the playground. It was still early, not too late.
Are you hungry?
Zhou Zuizui exclaimed "Ah!" and turned to look at him: "Aren't you going to walk around anymore? Just the classroom and the playground?"
Shen Nan smiled and said, "There's still this afternoon and evening. Shall I take you out for dinner first?"
"That's fine too."
The two exchanged a glance, and Shen Nan reached out and ruffled her hair before taking Zhou Zuizui to a restaurant he used to frequent when he was in school.
Shen Nan showed her the commercial street outside the school. It was the weekend, and the shops were still open, but there were far fewer people than during school hours. The surrounding shops were small and quite cluttered, offering all sorts of snacks and other food.
Zhou Zuizui looked up and around, finding it quite interesting.
She used to eat almost exclusively in the school cafeteria during class, and her family driver would pick her up after class. She had to be home on time almost every day, with a time difference not exceeding half an hour. Later, in her senior year of high school, she lived at school, which gave her a little more freedom, but every night, she would receive a phone call to check up on her.
Checking in by phone is one thing, but Zhou Zuizui is clever; she managed to climb over the wall and go out many times without ever being caught or discovered.
Every family has its own methods, and she has her own ways of coping. But no one is as carefree as Shen Nan.
Thinking about it, she chuckled softly.
Shen Nan lowered his eyes, stared at her for a moment, and led her into a small shop: "Let's eat here, we have rice and noodles."
"good."
There wasn't a hint of disgust in Zhou Zuizui's eyes.
Shen Nan said, "This shop has been open for many years. The food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. Usually, you have to come early to queue up before you have classes to get a table here."
This applies to both takeout and packaged goods.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zuizui looked around. The shop was indeed very small, with six or seven tables inside and probably a few more outside. However, since it was the weekend, all the tables and chairs outside had been taken down. She nodded in understanding and looked at Chen Nan with a smile: "Then let's see what you introduced."
"good."
Shen Nan knew what she liked to eat, and after they ordered, they waited quietly.
With few people around, the dishes were served quickly. Zhou Zuizui looked at the stir-fried dishes in front of her and could indeed smell a different aroma. Her stomach, which hadn't been very hungry before, was now rumbling with hunger. It smelled so good.
"Try it."
Zhou Zuizui took two bites, her eyes lit up, and she looked at Chen Nan: "Delicious!"
It's really delicious. It smells wonderful and tastes incredibly flavorful. She only took one bite of the stir-fried green beans and thought they were exceptionally flavorful, much better than anything she'd ever had before.
Shen Nan smiled and poured her a glass of water: "Then eat more."
"Mmm." She ignored Shen Nan and focused on eating.
After dinner, the two returned to the school and wandered around for a while. Finally, Shen Nan took Zhou Zuizui to the legendary school grove... They stayed in the grove for at least half an hour before coming out. When they came out, Zhou Zuizui's face was flushed, and her already rosy lips looked even more luscious and tempting.
Her fair cheeks were flushed, making her look stunning.
Even in a simple school uniform, her beauty was undeniable.
After leaving the school, the two went straight home. The matter with Ling Qing was, for the time being, in the past.
Zhou Zuizui's philosophy was that as long as Ling Qing didn't come looking for her, she wouldn't actively provoke anyone. It all depended on what that person wanted.
That evening, after dinner, the two squeezed together to watch a movie.
Zhou Zuizui was tired after wandering around all day and didn't want to go out, so Shen Nan stayed home and showed her some movies.
What type of movie would you like to watch?
Zhou Zuizui hummed in agreement, thought for a moment, and said, "Whatever, I don't have anything I want to watch lately."
Later, Shen Nan chose a somewhat touching movie to watch. Zhou Zuizui sat next to him and fell asleep while watching. She woke up groggily after the movie ended, glanced at the man next to her who was using her as a pillow, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it over?"
Shen Nan was both amused and exasperated. He reached out and pinched her chin, looking down at her: "So sleepy?"
"A little."
"Go take a shower and go to bed."
"oh."
As Zhou Zuizui got up and walked towards the room, she suddenly stopped and looked at the man still sitting on the sofa: "Chen Nan."
"Hmm?" Shen Nan looked up, gazing at her intently. "What?"
His voice was low and deep, which was very pleasant to listen to.
Zhou Zuizui pursed her lips before saying coldly, "You'll sleep in the guest room tonight."
On matters of principle, nothing can be changed. Otherwise, who knows how many more women this man will attract in the future. She was indeed happy today, but even in happiness, she wouldn't forget her principles.
Shen Nan looked at her in surprise, then chuckled and said, "Okay, whatever you say."
Zhou Zuizui: "…………"
Aren't you going to struggle at all?
She turned to look at Chen Nan, and seeing the smile on his face, she felt inexplicably a little angry.
She snorted coldly, closed the door without looking back, and went into the bathroom with her pajamas. Shen Nan watched her sulking, his eyes flickered for a moment, and then he smiled silently.
His wife is a little proud.
...
Zhou Zuizui had just finished showering when she received a call from Xia Wen.
"What are you doing?"
"Just came out of the shower." She casually dried her hair with a towel, then sat down on a chair with her eyes slightly lowered. "What, calling me now to ask me to go for a drink?"
Xia Wen chuckled and smiled, "I wouldn't dare. Your Captain Shen is home, how could I dare disturb your marital bliss?"
She was implying something.
Zhou Zuizui and Xia Wen, true to their good friendship, immediately grasped the deeper meaning behind it.
She choked up for a moment before casually saying, "There's no happy life here. I made her sleep in the guest room."
"Why?"
Zhou Zuizui briefly explained the situation, which made Xia Wen burst into laughter.
After Xia Wen had finished laughing, Zhou Zuizui lifted her eyelids and asked speechlessly, "Have you laughed enough?"
Xia Wen cleared her throat and looked at the night outside the window, saying, "That's enough. You're too heartless. Captain Chen took you out on a date today, didn't he? How can you just turn your back on him like this?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zuizui remained silent for a moment before saying, "I thought he would argue back."
I didn't expect them to be so obedient.
She emphasized this because she felt she had to keep her word, but she didn't expect that Shen Nan, who was sometimes so inhuman to her, would actually be such a gentleman and act like a proper person in this matter.
Xia Wen could roughly understand what she meant.
She paused, then couldn't help but chuckle, and said softly, "Why don't you take the initiative to apologize? Let Captain Chen sleep with you?"
"No!" Zhou Zuizui scoffed. "Do I look like someone who would back down?"
Xia Wen raised an eyebrow, her words carrying a hidden meaning: "I think so too."
"Why did you call me?" Zhou Zuizui abruptly changed the subject.
Xia Wen smiled and didn't call her out. She paused and said, "Want to have dinner together tomorrow?"
Zhou Zuizui paused slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Monday night, then. Shen Nan won't be going back until tomorrow night."
Xia Wen smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pick you up from get off work on Monday."
"Hmm." After hanging up the phone, Zhou Zuizui continued to wipe her hair. There was no sound outside. She peeked out and didn't see Chen Nan.
On the balcony, Shen Nan was smoking and casually answered a phone call.
"Is it settled?"
"Yes, you can go there on Monday."
Shen Nan gave a low reply: "Okay."
One voice said, "Give those brats a good talking to, they're all troublemakers!" The captain's exasperated voice came from the other side: "They're all so unruly!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Nan smiled slightly and said, "Alright, I'll teach you a good lesson."
The captain snorted coldly: "Don't be surprised, you used to be a troublemaker, you brat."
Shen Nan smiled and did not refute.
After giving the captain a few instructions, he suddenly changed the subject, saying, "I went to see Yangzi's mother today; she's in good health. Haven't you gone to see her since you came back?"
Shen Nan paused slightly, unconsciously putting down the cigarette he was holding and letting it burn out. Only when the cigarette butt touched his fingertip did he react slightly, stubbing out the cigarette and throwing it into the trash can beside him. He looked down at his burned finger and then murmured, "No."
The captain paused for a moment, then sighed deeply: "The training won't be too busy during this period, you can go and take a look."
"Um."
Sensing his emotions, the captain didn't say anything more: "Alright, that's all. I'm hanging up."
Seeing the phone call end, Shen Nan was about to take out his lighter and cigarette to light another one when the lighter was snatched away. Zhou Zuizui slipped in from the side and stood in front of him. Her long, curly hair wasn't completely dry yet, and she stood there with a bare face, looking up at him slightly, holding a black lighter in her hand. The light contrasted with the skin on her fingers.
"Finished washing?" His voice was slightly hoarse, and you could tell that he was not in a good mood.
Zhou Zuizui nodded, twirled the lighter in her hand, and raised an eyebrow at him: "I'll light your cigarette."
Shen Nan lowered his eyes and stared at her for a moment, then smiled silently: "Okay."
Zhou Zuizui was incredibly skilled at lighting cigarettes. Shen Nan looked at the cigarette in his hand, took a deep drag, and then it was snatched away.
"I'll give it a try."
Shen Nan remained silent, watching her practiced smoking gestures with a helpless expression. He reached out and ruffled her hair: "Not angry anymore?"
“Give birth.” Zhou Zuizui glared at him. “You think women are so easy to coax?”
Shen Nan replied frankly, "I don't know."
"What?"
"I've never coaxed you before."
It's true, Shen Nan never needs to coax anyone. High school is the stage when most people's love begins to blossom and they have many thoughts, but at that time Shen Nan was obsessed with other things and spent most of his time on models. When he got a little older, he was supervised by his grandfather and was sent to the army for training every time he had a holiday.
He went to a military academy, mostly filled with men, and they didn't have time to think about such things. Although quite a few people expressed interest in him, Shen Nan genuinely didn't find it interesting at the time.
Therefore, he has never had much contact with women, and apart from his mother, he has basically never coaxed anyone. Moreover, his mother is easy to coax; he only needs to buy her a gift and go home once.
Zhou Zuizui pouted and glanced at him: "Don't think that I won't be angry just because you said that."
Shen Nan smiled, placed his hands on either side of her, and gazed at her with his eyes slightly lowered: "Then how can I stop being angry?"
Zhou Zuizui: "..."
She really didn't know.
Actually, I don't seem angry anymore, but I just don't know how to back down. I can't find a reason not to be angry.
Shen Nan observed her expression, chuckled softly, took her cigarette, and leaned down to kiss her. After the kiss, Shen Nan gently bit her earlobe, his voice deep and dark: "Wife."
Zhou Zuizui remained silent.
"Let me sleep with you tonight?" he said, pinching her earlobe and smiling. "I'll apologize to you in bed."
The author has something to say: Ahem, how exactly is this apology delivered?! The author has no idea, absolutely no idea.
