Caught between Shen Qingling's "feeding" and Gu Ximan's "intercepting", he even drank the soup carefully.
Until Shen Qingling put down his chopsticks, wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, his eyes fell on Gu Ximan's face, and said with a smile: "Sister, do you want to go upstairs and sit for a while? I bought a lot of snacks."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ximan's cheeks puffed up like a puffed-up pufferfish, and she said fiercely, "Go ahead! Who's afraid of who? Watch me eat all your snacks!"
She spoke toughly, but was actually a little curious in her heart - she wanted to see what this crazy girl's home was like, and at the same time "supervise" her so that she wouldn't do anything tricky.
Shen Qingling was successfully amused by Gu Ximan's domineering and cute look, and a rare genuine warmth appeared in his eyes.
This snack was originally prepared specially for her.
To be honest, after spending a day together, Shen Qingling really liked Gu Ximan's straightforwardness and cuteness, and also appreciated Luo Shuning's gentleness and transparency. He felt close to his old acquaintance Luo Shuling's carefreeness.
Only Luo Shuhe is always like a piece of ice sinking in the water. He looks calm, but he reveals a tenacity that people dare not underestimate. He is a difficult but respectable opponent.
Shen Qingling stopped teasing Gu Ximan and reached out to grab her wrist, holding it firmly with his fingertips.
Gu Ximan subconsciously struggled twice, but found that Shen Qingling's grip was much stronger than it looked. Her wrist was firmly grasped. She could only mutter softly: "According to age, I am older than you. You should call me sister. How disrespectful!"
"I am your sister-in-law."
Shen Qingling turned his head to look at her, a faint smile on his lips, and said frankly as if he was stating an established fact: "So you are my sister."
Gu Ximan rolled her eyes at her, chuckled twice, but stopped struggling - she was going to go anyway, it didn't matter whether she struggled or not, and she could still get away with the decency of "not arguing with a crazy girl".
At this moment, Ren Lei suddenly stood up from the sofa, squinted her eyes, came over and asked rudely: "Do you mind if I join in the fun?"
Shen Qingling glanced at her without saying anything, but he loosened his grip on Gu Ximan's hand, as a sign of agreement.
Then he took Gu Ximan's hand and walked out.
Seeing this, Luo Shuling followed without hesitation, shouting, "Wait for me! I want some snacks too!"
As we all know, girls' stomachs are divided into rice stomachs and snack stomachs, not to mention that they are both foodies.
Finally, Luo Shuhe was the only one left. She paused with her fingertips pinching the edge of the sofa cushion, glanced at the people at the door, and then slowly stood up.
It is impolite to go without returning.
Since Shen Qingling had already come to his house for a meal, it was reasonable for her to go and "visit" him.
She didn't say anything, but just followed Luo Shuling quietly, still looking calm and composed, as if she was just visiting a neighbor.
In a blink of an eye, Gu Luo and Luo Shuning were the only ones left in the living room.
The cups and plates on the table hadn't been cleared away yet. Gu Luo stood up first, reached out and picked up the stacked dishes, and said to Luo Shuning with a smile, "Don't move. Bring the plates to me."
Luo Shuning smiled and nodded, watching him go back and forth, and followed him into the kitchen. Just as she turned on the faucet and the water flowed into the sink, she suddenly felt a warm touch behind her - Gu Luo gently hugged her from behind, his palms covering her waist and abdomen.
"Dabao, let's go out on a date tomorrow."
Gu Luo's voice was close to her ear, as soft as if it were soaked in honey. "I want to listen to the song you write for me tonight, just the two of us."
The sponge in Luo Shuning's hand suddenly stopped on the edge of the bowl, and water droplets dripped into the sink along the wall of the porcelain bowl, making a light "tapping" sound.
Her eyes instantly became moist, and her heart felt like it was soaked in warm water, sour and soft at the same time. She had waited for these words for too long, so long that she thought she would have to endure all the misunderstandings and concerns. Now that the barriers had finally dissipated, even the air had become sweet.
She uttered a soft "hmm" with a trembling voice. Before she could calm down, Luo Shuning felt Gu Luo's chin resting on the top of her head. His warm breath brushed past the tip of her ear, and he added softly:
"Tomorrow night, we won't be going home."
Luo Shuning's ears turned red instantly, and her fingertips clenched the sponge in her hand. Even the sound of flowing water seemed to become distant, and she could only hear her own heartbeat getting faster and faster.
She didn't turn her head, but leaned gently into Gu Luo's arms, put her face on his arm, and raised the corners of her mouth.
Gu Luo felt the softness of the person in his arms and smelled the faint lemon scent in her hair, and his heart was filled with peace of mind.
He gently rubbed the top of her head, and slowly tightened his fingers, holding her tighter.
The water in the kitchen was still running, and the foam stuck to Luo Shuning's wrist, like a handful of tiny stars, casting their shadows on the tiles, overlapping tightly.
