Chapter 185 I can’t stand it anymore!!
When Xu Nuo heard Shi Ning's voice, he looked up and saw him walking towards him with a bright smile on his face.
She curved her eyebrows, waved at him, and said in a brisk voice, "Here!"
Hearing the voice, Shi Ning quickly walked to the table, his eyes swept between Xu Nuo and Lu Chen, his smile still persisting.
When Lu Chen saw Shi Ning approaching, he stood up naturally.
He was tall to begin with, and with years of military training, he looked straight and strong.
This time, he was half a head taller than Shi Ning, giving people an invisible sense of oppression.
Lu Chen didn't realize this. He took the initiative to extend his hand and said, "Hello, I'm Lu Chen. Xu Nuo's husband! Thank you very much for saving her that day!"
Shi Ning looked up at Lu Chen and suddenly felt that he was inferior to him in terms of momentum.
This feeling is very unpleasant.
However, he didn't show anything on his face, and stretched out his hand to shake Lu Chen's: "Shi Ning. Xu Nuo is so kind and lovely. If it were someone else that day, they would definitely not stand idly by."
Kind and cute?
Lu Chen caught the word accurately and subconsciously wanted to frown.
But soon he felt that he must be overthinking, so he didn't say anything.
"That's not necessarily true." Xu Nuo said immediately, "There were also bystanders that day, but they were just bystanders."
"What happened that day is over, so let's not talk about it anymore."
She had said enough words of thanks, and Shi Ning had already felt her sincerity.
"Okay, let's not talk about it. Please take a seat! Come and take a look at the menu." Xu Nuo said.
"That's not necessary. I'm not picky about food. I'll eat whatever you order." Shi Ning said, and handed over the candied haws in his hand. "Look, I brought you a candied haws."
When Xu Nuo saw the candied haws, he couldn't help but smile: "Thank you, you are so thoughtful."
"Seeing you enjoying the food the other day, I knew you must like it. When I saw someone selling candied haws today, I thought of you and bought a bunch." He finished speaking, with a slight smile on his face, "Take a bite and try it?"
Xu Nuo took the candied haws with a smile on his face and took a small bite.
The sugar coating was crisp and sweet, and the hawthorns were sour and refreshing. She nodded and praised, "It's delicious, even better than the one we had that day."
Lu Chen sat aside, his eyes fixed on Xu Nuo biting the candied haws. He inexplicably felt that the sourness of the candied haws seemed to spread to his heart as well.
He frowned slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, trying to suppress the discomfort.
When Shi Ning saw Xu Nuo enjoying his meal, the smile on his face became even brighter.
He deliberately glanced at Lu Chen, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Then he took out two small and exquisite hairpins from his pocket.
The bow shape is pink and cute, very pleasing.
In front of Lu Chen, he handed the hairpin to Xu Nuo and said, "This is for you."
Xu Nuo was stunned, looking at the hairpin in his hand, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.
She looked up at Shi Ning, then secretly glanced at Lu Chen, a hint of embarrassment flashing across her face.
It is not right to accept it, and it is not right not to accept it.
It always feels a bit inappropriate for a boy to give a girl a hairpin, right?
She was hesitating, but Shi Ning smiled and explained, "You have been tutoring me these days, and I noticed that your hair keeps falling down, which is not very convenient. I give you this hairpin as a reward to thank Teacher Xu Nuo for teaching students."
After he finished speaking, he was afraid that Xu Nuo would not accept it, so he hurriedly added: "I have no money, I am poor, I can't afford expensive things, a pair of hairpins is not expensive, please don't look down on the things I give you. Don't despise me."
His tone was half joking, but with a hint of seriousness.
"How could I dislike it? This hairpin is very beautiful, I like it very much, thank you!"
Xu Nuo was about to reach out to take the hairpin, but Lu Chen had already stretched out a hand and took the hairpin: "Thank you on behalf of Nuo Nuo."
After he finished speaking, he smiled at Xu Nuo and said in a deep voice: "I'll keep this for you, you eat it first."
"Okay, okay." Xu Nuo agreed and lowered his head to bite the candied haws again.
Seeing this scene, Shi Ning couldn't help but glance at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen happened to look at him as well.
The two people's eyes met briefly, as if there was a silent undercurrent surging.
Shi Ning's series of actions clearly went beyond the normal social scope.
Just as Lei Ming had reminded him before, there were impure motives in the way this kid looked at Xu Nuo, and his behavior today made people feel even more uncomfortable.
Although Lu Chen was unhappy in his heart, he remained calm on the surface. He was always able to keep his composure.
At this moment, he was observing Shi Ning's every move calmly, wanting to see what tricks this kid would play next.
Sure enough, Shi Ning did not stop there.
He smiled and looked at Xu Nuo, and continued, "I really have to thank you for giving up your lunch break every day and staying up until after ten o'clock in the evening to patiently teach me and organize my notes.
These days, I feel that my level has improved by leaps and bounds, thanks to you. The final exam is coming up soon, and there are still some things I don’t understand. I hope to bother you again next week so that you can help me with more lessons. I don’t want to fail, it will be embarrassing then. "
Give up your lunch break?
I have to stay up until 10 o'clock at night just to explain the questions to this kid? !
He tightened his grip on the teacup slightly and glanced sideways at Xu Nuo.
Good, good, good!
It seems that his wife is quite energetic!!
very good! !
Xu Nuo was listening to Shi Ning's words with his head down when he suddenly felt a cold gaze sweeping towards him, and the temperature seemed to drop by several degrees.
She subconsciously turned her head and met Lu Chen's deep yet sneering eyes.
Xu Nuo's heart couldn't help but tighten.
Finished!
Is the Jealous King going to be jealous again?
She said quickly, "Shi Ning, you are too polite. It is my duty to help you. But I may be a little busy next week, so we need to discuss the time."
When Shi Ning heard this, a hint of disappointment flashed across his face, but he soon regained his smile: "It's okay, I'll talk to you when you have more time."
Lu Chen picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Nono, it's a good thing to make up for the lessons, but you should also pay attention to your health and don't get too tired. You've worked hard to help me translate the materials, so you need to rest more. Hmm?"
"Yes, yes, yes."
For some reason, Xu Nuo felt that this meal...something tasted a little off.
While the competition was going on secretly, the waiter came up with the first dish: "Make way, be careful not to burn you. Here, the sweet and sour pork ribs are served first!"
Shi Ning immediately said excitedly: "Xu Nuo, you are so thoughtful! I only told you once that I love sweet and sour pork ribs and you remembered it! Thank you! Come, try it first!"
As he said that, he picked up a piece and put it into Xu Nuo's bowl first.
Lu Chen really couldn't help but grind his back teeth this time!
This kid is really endless.
I can’t stand it anymore!
