Xie Shizhu's cheeks flushed slightly, and he covered his rumbling stomach and said awkwardly, "No, I've already troubled you so much..."
Jiang Yuhuai's smile softened as he said calmly, "Since you feel like it's a bother to me, why don't you treat me to a meal?"
Xie Shizhu was stunned and complained in his heart: Haha, a stingy man.
"Okay..." Xie Shizhu hurriedly stood up from the sofa, "Then boss, I'll change my pajamas."
Jiang Yuhuai said "hmm" lightly.
Looking at Xie Shizhu's almost fleeing back, Jiang Yuhuai smiled playfully.
More than ten minutes later, Xie Shizhu appeared in front of him wearing a white sweatshirt and jeans, looking like a high school student, extremely immature.
With her black hair tied into a ponytail, she looks like a little girl who has not lost her childishness.
Xie Shizhu picked up the key on the table, his eyebrows curved: "Boss, I'll take you to a good place."
Jiang Yuhuai said, "Okay."
The two got in the car. Xie Shizhu took the initiative to enter the address into his navigation system. When he heard the robotic female voice announce the destination, Jiang Yuhuai asked while backing up the car with familiarity, "Haizhou High School?"
Xie Shizhu nodded his head: "Yeah, let's go."
Jiang Yuhuai drove the car to the destination.
Arriving at the school gate, Xie Shizhu pointed to the small shop across the road and said, "Let's go eat there!"
Jiang Yuhuai parked the car and looked at the place Xie Shizhu pointed to, which was an old restaurant. Due to damage, a word on the signboard had fallen off.
Xie Shizhu suddenly thought of something, and she whispered, "Well, I almost forgot, it seems like you guys wouldn't like this kind of place."
Jiang Yuhuai retracted his gaze and unbuckled his seatbelt. "I'm not some rich second-generation."
Xie Shizhu breathed a sigh of relief, a smile spreading across his lips: "Let's go then."
The two got out of the car and prepared to cross the road. When the light turned green, Xie Shizhu subconsciously took Jiang Yuhuai's arm, then realized that something was wrong and quickly pulled her hand away. The next second, Jiang Yuhuai took her hand again and said in a deep voice, "Be careful when crossing the road."
Xie Shizhu was slightly startled, "...Okay."
The man's hands were cold and icy, while Xie Shizhu's palms were warm, and the two body temperatures intertwined with each other.
At the school gate.
Chi Ze was personally escorted to the school gate by the principal, who said respectfully, "Mr. Chi, thank you for coming to attend the school anniversary today and for donating the new library to our school. I would like to thank you on behalf of all the teachers and students in the school."
"You're welcome," Chi Ze's special assistant responded to the principal on his behalf, "I hope the school will get better and better."
Chi Ze closed his eyes slightly and looked at the two people crossing the road. It was not until the special assistant called him several times that Chi Ze came to his senses.
The special assistant said, "Boss Chi, it's time for us to go."
Chi Ze replied indifferently: "Yeah."
Seeing that the principal was still planning to walk them to the car, the special assistant quickly said, "Please stay."
The principal nodded and watched the two get into the car.
In the back parking space, Chi Ze looked through the car window at the back figure that had already entered the store, his eyes hinting at a hint of annoyance, and his mind was recalling memories.
When he was in high school, he and a few friends passed by this store and always saw Xie Shizhu sitting alone in the store, eating by himself.
The back view is desolate.
The cheap and greasy food in front of her became the topic of ridicule for these rich kids.
"She eats that stuff, and my dog won't even smell it."
"What else can she eat?"
At that time, Chi Ze turned a blind eye and walked straight past. From the corner of his eye, he could still catch a glimpse of Xie Shizhu's surprise when he saw his figure, as well as the emotions in his eyes.
In Chi Ze's heart, being secretly loved by Xie Shizhu is a humiliation.
But now, Chi Ze took a deep breath and closed his eyes in annoyance.
Regret and guilt spread throughout his chest, making it hard for him to breathe.
He said in a heavy voice, "Drive."
The special assistant looked confused. Seeing Chi Ze's painful expression in the rearview mirror, he was curious and at a loss.
The car drove away quickly.
As soon as Xie Shizhu sat down, his maliciousness value suddenly dropped to 75.
She lowered her eyes and smiled slightly.
The proprietress of the store came over with a yellowed menu. She looked at Xie Shizhu and felt that he looked very familiar, but she didn't dare to recognize him.
The man sitting opposite him had picturesque features, and was handsome and elegant.
She was even more convinced that she had recognized the wrong person, until Xie Shizhu called her softly, "Sister Liu, put more chili in the spicy chicken."
The familiar voice made the proprietress open her eyes wide, "Hey, it's really you, I thought I recognized the wrong person, you've become so beautiful now that I can't recognize you."
Xie Shizhu smiled and said, "Sister Liu is as young as before."
"You're such a sweet talker, little girl," the lady boss said, looking at Jiang Yuhuai, "Is this your boyfriend? He looks like a celebrity."
Xie Shizhu's face was full of embarrassment. "No, no, he is my boss."
The proprietress smiled meaningfully, said nothing, turned around and gave the ordered dishes to her husband, and specifically asked him to put more meat.
Jiang Yuhuai had very long legs, and the narrow space prevented him from stretching them out, so he could only lean against Xie Shizhu's knees.
Xie Shizhu moved the stool back to put some distance between them.
Her action made Jiang Yuhuai's eyes darken slightly.
During the meal, a business car stopped here and several men in black got out of the car. They looked around and their eyes were fixed on a shabby restaurant.
Immediately, a group of people rushed in.
Xie Shizhu was stunned when he saw several tall men suddenly coming in. They were all dressed in black and their attire was very formal and uniform.
