Volume 1 Chapter 7 You are teasing me
Shang Fuyan drank some water in time to dilute the spicy taste, then nodded slightly, "It tastes good."
Song Xi smiled, "As expected, we are fellow travelers."
According to his observation, Song Xi really likes spicy food and hardly touches the plain water pot, which shows how much he likes spicy food.
Not only does he like spicy food, he also drinks one iced drink after another.
Shang Fuyan couldn't help but remind him, "Song Xi, aren't you feeling uncomfortable drinking like this?"
"No, I'm in good health."
As she spoke, she raised her head and drank a sip of iced passion fruit juice. Two words were silently written on her face: satisfied.
Shang Fuyan stopped persuading him. He had never dated a girl and was afraid that talking too much would make people dislike him.
Halfway through the hot pot, the waiter brought a fruit platter, including sliced watermelon and cantaloupe, and a few bright red cherry tomatoes.
Song Xi not only likes spicy and cold food, but also sour food. Tomatoes and citrus fruits are her favorites.
She took a piece of watermelon and just as she was about to lower her head to eat it, she looked up at the opposite side, "Aren't you going to eat it?"
“No.”
"Professor Shang, didn't you say you weren't picky about food?"
This is a very good question. Song Xi wants to see how he answers it.
The man pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses with one hand and suppressed a smile. "She's really not picky about food, and she's easy to raise."
Song Xi's attention was instantly drawn to the second half of his sentence, "You mean... anyone can support you?"
"That depends on whether I am willing or not."
Song Xi said "Oh" and lowered her head to eat the melon. Fruits out of season are indeed not as sweet as seasonal ones. After eating a piece, she refused to touch it again.
When we came out of the hot pot restaurant, it was already dark.
The hot pot restaurant that Song Xi specially selected was not far from the small apartment in Yi Jinyuan, about ten minutes' walk away.
She turned and looked at Shang Fuyan, "No need to send me off, I can walk back by myself, it's a good way to digest the food."
The man did not agree, and tactfully said that he had not been to this area very often and this was a good opportunity to appreciate it.
How could Song Xi refuse such words?
And so, the two walked side by side on the sidewalk.
One is tall and the other is short, with a difference of about 20 centimeters, but they look extremely harmonious.
In the eyes of others, this is called a perfect match.
In March of the Gregorian calendar, many flower trees have sprouted buds, adding a touch of warmth compared to the cold winter.
Song Xi never thought that there would be a day when the two of them would walk happily on the street together.
The corners of her lips could not help but curl up, and she looked at Shang Fuyan, "Let me ask you a question, are there any students pursuing you in school?"
"No." The man responded decisively.
Song Xi added: "Giving you a love letter or a gift also counts~"
“I haven’t received any.”
Song Xi was very skeptical about this, "Really?"
"No. I don't accept teacher-student relationships."
When Song Xi heard this, he found the flaw in his words, "Professor Shang, don't forget that I was once your student."
"You also said that, that was in the past. Now, we are not in that kind of relationship."
Song Xi looked down at the ground, but was thinking about something else.
At this moment, the man suddenly pulled her. Song Xi came back to her senses from her stupor, her eyes like a frightened deer, silently asking.
Shang Fuyan explained gently: "Don't step on the manhole cover."
Song Xi lowered his head and glanced, and just as he said, he accidentally stepped on the corner of the manhole cover.
She rolled her eyes and looked up to meet the man's gaze, "Hit me three times now."
Shang Fuyan stood there without moving. Those were all superstitious beliefs without any basis.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Song Xi continued, "If you step on the manhole cover, you will be unlucky for three consecutive days, so hit me three times quickly."
"Where to hit?"
Song Xi's lips curled up into an unconcealable smile, "The head or the butt is fine."
Shang Fuyan: “…”
Just two seconds later, Shang Fuyan raised his right hand, tapped Song Xi's head three times, and said, "Bad luck is gone."
"Professor Shang, you are really smart!"
The corners of the man's lips couldn't help but curl up when he was praised. He lowered his eyebrows and looked at her, with a hint of tenderness in his tone, "Song Xi, you are teasing me."
"It seems that my cultivation is still not high enough."
Shang Fuyan was amused by her appearance and felt that she was more and more adorable, different from other girls.
He never regretted having snatched this blind date, but instead felt extremely lucky.
It took them nearly twenty minutes to reach their destination, a ten-minute walk.
Song Xi lives on the 27th floor of a small apartment with one bedroom and one living room. She lives alone and the apartment is very spacious.
Thinking that there were still some things upstairs that he shouldn't see, Song Xi didn't take the initiative to invite him. Instead, he said directly: "Thank you for sending me back. I won't invite you upstairs to drink water."
Shang Fuyan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses with one hand and said, "It just so happens that I have something else to deal with, so I won't go upstairs this time."
"So you want to... go upstairs to drink water next time?"
"You could think so."
After hearing this, Song Xi was so excited, but he remained calm on the surface, "Professor Shang, see you next time."
The man nodded slightly, "Go back quickly, don't you still need to prepare for class?"
"Yeah, I'll be leaving now. Bye~" Song Xi waved to him.
After seeing him nod, Song Xi turned around, smiled silently, and walked towards the front of the apartment building.
The man didn't leave until her back disappeared. It was the first time that he was teased by a girl.
After returning to the apartment, Song Xi went to the bathroom to take a bath. After nearly half an hour, she came out wrapped in a thick bath towel and sat at the desk.
Subconsciously, she checked her phone, but instead of receiving his message, she saw the good news that Zheng Shuyan had sent her.
It turned out that she sold three houses today on her own, and the commission alone was enough to cover her basic salary for a year and a half.
Song Xi was happy for her and replied to the message, congratulating Zheng Shuyan on her huge fortune.
Maybe the other party was too happy and made a video call directly.
Song Xi swiped the green answer button, and an elf-like face with short hair appeared on the screen, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked very capable and shrewd in dealing with people.
"Baoer, where were you just now? Why did you reply to my message just now?"
"I'm taking a bath, and I smell like hot pot all over."
"You go to eat hot pot alone, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
"I made an appointment with someone to go together."
Zheng Shuyan was immersed in her own joy and didn't hear the hidden meaning in Song Xi's words, "I'm off duty next Saturday, so I'll treat you to a nice dinner. Please make a reservation in advance. Would you be willing to do me the honor?"
"Your face must be given."
The two chatted about other things casually and it was over half an hour later.
Song Xi discovered that there was a message from Shang Fuyan. He clicked on it and saw that it was him who had arrived home.
As a courtesy, Song Xi sent a cute animal emoticon package as usual.
After that, there was no news.
Song Xi didn't care. She had to prepare for her lessons and write updates for her serialized articles in the following time, otherwise she would be easily stabbed by readers.
It was almost eleven o'clock at night when Song Xi stopped working.
She was lying on the bed, looking through the chat history with Shang Fuyan, but somehow she "patted" him.
In an emergency, Song Xi hurried to withdraw.
Fortunately, this function exists on social software, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
Just when Song Xi felt relieved, she received another message from him: "Are you still awake?"
