Lei Ting savored An Ning's ice cream, longing to kiss her as he always had, to taste the sweetness in her mouth. In their two years of marriage, Lei Ting would often kiss An Ning during their intimate moments, enjoying the sweet taste of birch sap in her mouth.
Lei Ting: "An Ning, what else do you want to eat? Make sure you eat your fill."
Anning: "I'm done eating, I'm full."
Lei Ting: "An Ning, will you be home tomorrow? I'll take you shopping for clothes, to buy..."
Anyang: "My sister has to go to work. Be quiet for a bit, eat the pasta you ordered, and then go home."
Anning: "Yangyang, why are you talking to your cousin so rudely? Leiting, don't mind it, Anyang didn't mean anything by it. Your pasta hasn't been touched yet, hurry up and eat!"
Thunder: "Hehe, okay."
Anning felt that Lei Ting was being unusually enthusiastic towards her, and she was finding it hard to handle. If she were to go out alone, she really wouldn't want to be with someone like Lei Ting. Lei Ting slurped up a mouthful of spaghetti. There were some ginger garnishes on the plate, the smell of which Lei Ting found repulsive.
Thunder: "This is ginger! Why is there ginger in Western food?"
Liao Qian: "How can Western food be without ginger? It's for seasoning. If you don't want it, give it to me."
Thunder: "Here you go, I hate ginger the most. Anning, did you like ginger before?"
An Ning: "I'm alright, I don't dislike most kinds of food."
Liao Qian: "Ginger is warming and nourishing, and it's good for your health."
Thunder: "Why force me to eat things I don't like if I don't like them?"
Anning: "If you don't like ginger, you can replace your seasoning with cinnamon sticks, which are also a warming and nourishing seasoning."
Thunder: "Yes...before..."
Anyang: "Why so much 'past'? Sister, come and try this lobster meat, it's delicious."
Anning: "Yangyang, where did you learn to interrupt others so much? Where did your manners go? Don't do that."
An Yang: "I understand..."
An Yang glared at Lei Ting. This meal was truly exhausting. After dinner, the group went home. In the car, Lei Ting sat opposite An Ning, staring at her absentmindedly. An Ning leaned on An Yang's shoulder, and Lei Ting wanted to pull her closer; his shoulders were broader than An Yang's, providing her with a greater sense of security.
An Ning: "I'm a little tired in Anyang."
Anyang: "Sis, don't go for your morning run tomorrow, sleep in a bit more!"
Lei Ting: "An Ning, you love morning runs! I like running too. I'll ask you to go with me tomorrow morning!"
Anyang: "I was wondering why you always managed to squeeze in every little opportunity!"
Thunder: "You're like family to me. I've never met anyone here before, and seeing you all makes me feel so close..."
Anyang: "Don't go looking for trouble!"
Lei Ting: "An Ning, I'll ask you to come with me tomorrow, let's go for a morning run together."
An Yang: "No...you..."
Anning: "Alright, alright, stop arguing. If I get up early tomorrow, I'll take you for a walk around this neighborhood."
Anyang: "No..."
Anning: "Anyang, my cousin just arrived and doesn't know many places. There are many places he can't go. It's nothing for me to take him for a walk in the courtyard."
Thunder: "Great..."
Liao Qian: "Haha, Anyang took such good care of your sister that it makes us hesitate to go there."
Anyang: "What do you mean by 'hesitating'? We're almost home."
Liao Qian: "Okay, we're home. Anyang, take your sister home quickly, we're going home too..."
Thunder: "See you tomorrow, Anning."
Anning: "Goodbye."
Anyang: "Hurry up, sis..."
Thunder: "I'll wake you up tomorrow morning!"
Liao Qian: "He's gone! He's so annoying. Didn't you see An Yang's eyes were like he wanted to eat you alive? He should have punched you in the face."
Lei Ting: "No way! An Ning ate the cake I made today, had a meal with me, and even asked me to go for a run tomorrow morning. I'm so happy! Brother, my good brother, my good brother, if you have any troubles, just tell me..."
Liao Qian: "Get lost..."
Liao Qian wasn't sure if what he was doing was right. He had business to attend to the next day, leaving Lei Ting alone at home. Although Liao Qian repeatedly warned Lei Ting not to cause trouble or provoke An Ning, Lei Ting outwardly agreed, but inwardly he had his own plans. That evening, lying in Liao Qian's house, Liao Qian brought out some red wine for him to enjoy. Lei Ting stared excitedly at An Ning's house. Liao Qian brought the wine over, and Lei Ting took a small sip.
Lei Ting: "Why did you buy a house here? It would have been so much better if it were next to Anning's house."
Liao Qian: "Lei Ting, you really won't hurt An Ning anymore!"
Thunder: "Definitely not!"
Liao Qian: "Sit down, I want to say a few words to you."
Lei Ting and Liao Qian sat on his sofa. Lei Ting naturally lay down on Liao Qian's lap, and as before, Liao Qian would gently scratch his head like he was scratching lice, which Lei Ting thoroughly enjoyed.
Thunder: "Speak up! What do you want to say to me?"
Liao Qian: "Actually, I used to really like An Ning. When I was in college, I liked to pester her."
Thunder: "Are you serious? That's my wife."
Liao Qian: "Back then, she wasn't your wife yet. Many men were pursuing An Ning... I never expected you to win her over."
Thunder: "You're the one who arranged the match for me. And now you're saying things like this?"
Liao Qian: "At that time, I just wanted to spend more time with An Ning and create various opportunities to meet her. Who knew you would actually catch up with her?"
Lei Ting: "An Ning may not know that you prepared those roses for half the city... I had no feelings for her at all back then."
Liao Qian: "There are many things she doesn't know; blame it on fate playing tricks on her..."
