Chapter 212, if we move it even a little bit forward, it will turn into a real verbal battle!
"I killed her on purpose."
Pei Jinwu raised her eyebrows, a curved smile playing on her lips. She was clearly smiling, but her eyes held no trace of amusement, and her whole body emanated a chilling aura.
"..."
Xu Qingye stood frozen in place, swallowing hard in fright, unable to utter a sound.
Sister Wu looks terrifying.
This reminded him of how Sister Wu had dealt with a few brats at the Imperial Middle School when she first transferred there.
It was probably because of their time together that he felt that Sister Wu was a very easy-going person.
Now he knows.
It's not that Sister Wu has a good personality, but rather that she smiles at people who don't bother her.
If you dare to provoke—
Qin Jiao, who fell and bled all over her face today, is the best example.
"Don't be afraid."
Fearing that Xu Qingye would be too frightened, Pei Jinwu smiled gently and said in a calm voice, "As long as you don't do anything bad, I won't let you die."
"I promise to be a good person!"
Xu Qingye immediately stood up straight, his expression serious, almost saluting Pei Jinwu.
That's pretty silly.
"OK."
Pei Jinwu blinked, looked away, put her hands back in her pockets, and the fierce look on her face vanished instantly. She lazily asked, "Ask Zhao Qianqian and the class monitor if they've arrived yet?"
"yes."
Xu Qingye shakily took out his phone and contacted the two people.
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at him and frowned slightly.
She wasn't that...
Scary, isn't it!
——
Restaurant.
Pei Jinwu sat in front of the slightly worn chair, curiously looking around at the furnishings.
The minimalist style looks quite ordinary.
It was slightly different from the restaurant where they used to often dine together.
"Sister Wu, it took me ages to find out her address." Xu Qingye poured her some water while patting his chest to assure her, "Don't let the shabby surroundings fool you, the food is absolutely delicious."
"I came here specifically to try it before I dared to bring you here."
"fine."
Pei Jinwu twitched the corner of her mouth, showing no sign of disgust on her face.
As long as there's food, anywhere is fine.
She remembered being brought to the Shen family from the orphanage.
At that time, her grandfather was hospitalized due to illness, and Shen Yunrou and her family of three disliked her very much.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Yunrou deliberately locked her in the attic.
They only gave her water, leaving her hungry for several days.
She was probably only six years old at the time.
Unable to leave, I was so hungry that I ate a lot of paper.
"Thanks a lot."
Pei Jinwu patted Xu Qingye on the shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Where are Zhao Qianqian and Tang Yuan?"
"On the way." Xu Qingye blushed slightly, revealing a hint of shyness. "They said there's a bit of traffic, so it'll take a while."
As they were talking.
The owner brought out a steaming pot of wild mushroom stewed chicken, the aroma filling the air.
"This needs to be cooked for a certain time before you can eat it." The owner thoughtfully placed the hourglass upside down and said with a smile, "It takes about twenty-five minutes. If it's not cooked through, you'll get poisoned."
"Thank you, boss," Xu Qingye replied. "Don't worry, we have common sense."
Okay.
After giving his instructions, the owner went to greet the other tables of customers.
Twenty-five minutes?
Pei Jinwu looked at the hourglass dripping slowly, then at the bubbling, fragrant chicken hotpot, and her mouth watered uncontrollably.
I really want to eat it.
After chatting for a while, Xu Qingye received a call from Zhao Qianqian.
The two of them couldn't find their way.
"Sister Wu, please sit for a while, I'll go out to meet them."
"OK."
Pei Jinwu, with her head down playing games, casually agreed.
...
The two games are over.
Pei Jinwu finally looked up and realized that the others had not returned yet.
On the contrary, the inverted hourglass had run out of sand.
"?"
Pei Jinwu was slightly taken aback; twenty-five minutes had gone by quite quickly.
really.
Do something interesting, and time won't feel so hard to pass.
Where are they?
Pei Jinwu sent a message to Xu Qingye.
Xu Qingye: [They took the wrong turn; I just picked them up. Sister Wu, you can eat first if you're hungry.]
Should we eat first?
Pei Jinwu lifted the pot lid, releasing a refreshing aroma of wild mushrooms mixed with the rich flavor of chicken...
ah.
She was so intoxicated by the fragrance.
Since her friends hadn't arrived, she naturally couldn't start eating first.
but……
Trying just a little bit of the soup shouldn't be a problem, right?
never mind.
It's better not to eat it.
A few seconds later.
Pei Jinwu put down her phone, silently picked up a spoon, and scooped a spoonful of soup into the bowl.
Drink it down in one gulp.
In an instant, his eyes lit up.
It tastes good.
Since we've already drunk so much, it's not unreasonable to drink a little more, right?
Not excessive at all!
Having convinced herself, Pei Jinwu served herself a larger portion this time.
He held it in both hands, blowing on it as he sipped slowly, his eyes squinting with satisfaction.
Not long after.
Xu Qingye then led Zhao Qianqian and Tang Yuan in.
"Perfect, we can eat it right away."
Xu Qingye then busied himself serving rice to the three of them.
I have an exam the day after tomorrow.
The meal was mainly for relaxation, and no one mentioned studying.
"Sister Wu—"
Xu Qingye finished eating, put down his chopsticks, and stared at Pei Jinwu with interest. "After graduation, will you and Mr. Shang go public with your relationship?"
"public?"
Pei Jinwu, who was gnawing on a bone, paused slightly and looked at Xu Qingye with a puzzled expression.
At most, she and Shang Shiyan were...
Is it the relationship between the landlord and the tenant?
We'll see.
Shang Shiyan didn't confess his feelings to her!
"What nonsense are you asking?" Zhao Qianqian slapped Xu Qingye and quickly changed the subject. "Jinwu, Mr. Shang is coming to pick you up, right?"
They all heard me on the phone just now.
"Um."
"Then we'll be going now." Zhao Qianqian stood up, and Xu Qingye and Tang Yuan followed suit, waving goodbye to her.
"OK."
Pei Jinwu didn't linger, only saying, "Good luck on your exam."
After the group left.
Pei Jinwu rested her chin on her hands, feeling dizzy.
What happened?
Was she overeating?
——
Leave the restaurant.
Xu Qingye then dared to approach Zhao Qianqian and ask, "Why did you interrupt me?"
“It seems that Mr. Shang and Jin Wu are not really together yet,” Zhao Qianqian explained seriously. “It looks like Mr. Shang hasn’t confessed his feelings yet.”
"Is that so?"
Xu Qingye scratched his head and asked in confusion, "Why don't you confess? I think Sister Wu likes him quite a bit."
It's just a matter of adding a sense of ritual.
If the two really get together, Mr. Shang will become his brother-in-law.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Wow!
“It wasn’t time yet.” Zhao Qianqian rolled her eyes at him, feeling speechless. “With your emotional intelligence, you’ll never find a girlfriend.”
"Curse me?"
Xu Qingye's expression changed, and he immediately became displeased. "Just wait, if you can't find me, I'll come and mess with you."
"..."
Zhao Qianqian suddenly looked up and realized that the two of them were standing so close together.
Suddenly.
Her heart raced, and her cheeks inexplicably felt hot.
"..."
Xu Qingye also stared at her, looking a little awkward.
"???"
The two looked at each other.
Tang Yuan immediately leaned to the side, craning her neck between the two with a gossipy expression: "What are you two doing? You don't have to be this close to have a verbal fight!"
If we move even a little bit further, it will turn into a real verbal battle!
——
There will be more updates.
Wuwu: I've been poisoned by wild mushrooms!
