Chapter 27: Sinking Little by Little
“I wanted you to move in here. I was planning to give you two days to spend some quality time with your parents. Why are you moving in so soon? What’s wrong? Are you so impatient to live with me?” Yun Che approached, his expression ambiguous.
Su Xiao suddenly realized, and a warm feeling suddenly surged in her heart.
It turns out that she was really overthinking it!
She misunderstood him!
Yes, she never thought that he would consider her like this.
The image he had always presented to her was one of domineering, taking things by force, and completely disregarding her wishes, but this time he actually...
“Did you make all those dishes in the refrigerator?” Yun Che spoke again.
Su Xiao calmed down and nodded, "Have you eaten?"
"I have a social event tonight, and we're all drinking. I think the fried kidney balls with garlic sprouts are quite appetizing. Can you heat them up and give me some?"
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Because Su Xiao was sleeping, she was wearing a nightgown, and the straps were loose, revealing half of her body.
She was completely unaware, but Yun Che was already mesmerized and immediately pulled her into his arms, "But I've thought of something even more delicious."
After saying that, he pushed her down on the bed.
A storm of passion is brewing.
Su Xiao lay weakly in his arms, her misty eyes looking at his strong and muscular chest, her heart pounding.
Yun Che also savored the aftertaste for a moment, then said, "Get up and heat up the food."
"Okay!" Su Xiao got out of bed, but unexpectedly fell to the ground.
Yun Che raised his sword-like eyebrows and squinted at her, as if laughing at her for being a useless ghost.
Su Xiao's pretty face flushed, she bit her lips, got up, and ran out quickly.
He was always rough in this matter. Every time she did that with him, her skeleton seemed to fall apart. Today was no exception. She felt tired and sleepy, and not feeling well.
However, thinking that he hadn't eaten yet, she resolutely endured it and heated up the dishes with concentration and joy.
When all kinds of fragrance filled the air and seeped into her heart, she suddenly felt a special feeling in her heart. Was that called happiness?
"Do you often cook at home?" Yun Che walked in and hugged her from behind.
He had already taken a shower and felt refreshed, with a fresh and pleasant scent that was fascinating.
"No, it's my mother who cooks it all. I help out occasionally. I learned these dishes from my mother." Su Xiao told the truth.
“It looks delicious.” Yun Che put his big hand into her loose nightgown.
Su Xiao shuddered immediately, and a tingling sensation spread throughout her body. She wanted to stop him, but ultimately held back.
She found that she also longed for this feeling.
However, Yun Che did not go any further. After all, the current situation did not allow it, and he was indeed hungry. He had a whole night ahead of him anyway, and only after eating a full meal would he have enough strength.
After a while, the dishes were heated up.
Yun Che asked Su Xiao to eat with him. Su Xiao hesitated for a moment and said, "I've already eaten at home."
“Then why do you cook so many dishes?” Yun Che asked meaningfully, wondering if he could see through her heart.
Later, he continued, "Next time, just make three dishes and a soup."
"Okay." Su Xiao replied.
Although he said there were a lot of dishes, he actually ate them all. I don’t know if it was because they tasted as good as he said, or because he didn’t want to waste them.
No matter what the reason, Su Xiao was very happy.
“Just put the things in the sink and wash them tomorrow.” Yun Che hugged her and left the kitchen.
He pestered her tirelessly throughout the second half of the night.
When I woke up the next day, it was already past nine o'clock.
Su Xiao was alone in the bed. She opened her phone and received a message from Yun Che. "There's a morning meeting at the company today, so I'm going out now. I asked Mingli to ask for leave for you. Don't worry. Also, move your things to the bedroom. You'll sleep in the bedroom from now on."
Su Xiao looked at the text message over and over again. At first, she was annoyed and worried that he asked Mingli to ask for leave for her again. She didn't know how Mingli asked for it, and whether others would find it strange and suspicious. But when she saw the words at the end, he asked her to move into the bedroom, and her heart was filled with boundless sweetness and happiness.
Because of physical fatigue and cleaning up the dishes from last night, Su Xiao didn't return to the company until 11:30.
"Xiao, are you okay?" Xu Ning came over to greet her.
Su Xiao was stunned and shook her head. "It's okay. I've had a weak constitution since I was a child. My biological clock just happened to be disrupted recently. I'll get used to it slowly."
"That's good."
Su Xiao continued to smile gratefully at Xu Ning, returned to her seat, took out her phone and sent a message to Yun Che, "I'm at the company."
"Okay!" He answered quickly, but it was just a simple word.
Less than half a minute later, he sent another message, "I'll be home for dinner tonight."
"Okay, I understand!" Su Xiao immediately showed a happy smile on her face.
Xu Ning happened to see them. She slid over on her chair and whispered, "You look like a woman in love, Xiao, are you sure you're not secretly in a relationship?"
Su Xiao's heart suddenly panicked and she said, "No, you think too much."
"Well, I hope I'm wrong. Anyway, I still think Manager Lin is the best."
Su Xiao no longer refused openly because Xu Ning had always wanted to help her and Lin Zhenhua. As long as she knew what was going on, it would be fine. Xu Ning had good intentions, and she couldn't let him down.
After get off work, Su Xiao returned to Yun Che's residence. This time she had plenty of time, so she bought a lot of ingredients at the supermarket, filling up half of the refrigerator, and then started cooking.
She followed his instructions and prepared three dishes and a soup. The first was fish head and tofu soup, her mother's specialty. The tofu was very smooth, and the soup was a creamy white, very delicious. The third dish was steamed prawns and stir-fried bamboo shoots with shredded pork. She knew he could eat all kinds of delicacies outside, so a simple dish at home would be better.
Yun Che came back at 7:30.
Seeing the hot food on the table, he was stunned for a moment, then washed his hands and sat down.
"This soup is good." He praised while drinking the soup.
"My mother cooks better." Su Xiao said embarrassedly. She sat opposite him and also ate her own portion with a bowl.
Yun Che nodded and continued to pick up other dishes. From his expression, it was clear that he was quite satisfied. Su Xiao felt even happier.
After dinner, he went into the study to busy himself. Su Xiao cleaned up the dishes and cleaned the kitchen. Seeing that he was still busy in the study, she took out her laptop and opened the design drawings that she had not had time to complete today and continued working on them.
After a while, Yun Che came out and stood behind her.
Su Xiao just encountered a problem and couldn't help but look up and smile awkwardly at him.
Yun Che stared at the computer screen and asked, "What element can I use for this?"
Su Xiao was stunned, then nodded truthfully, "I've tried several, but none of them worked well."
Yun Che sat down beside her and continued to look at it for a while, then took the mouse and started drawing on it.
The picture that always seemed to be missing something suddenly became perfect.
Su Xiao showed an excited and happy expression, looking at him with admiration.
"The circle you come into contact with in school is always small. If you have time, go out more often. Everything you have seen will remain in your mind and will pop up when you need it." He said casually with a calm face.
Su Xiao was still very excited. She really didn't think that he would help her.
She remembered that when she first joined the company, she thought that she would be very happy if she could get his guidance when everyone got to know each other.
Later, he proposed a deal, shattering her fantasy. Even though he mentioned that one of the terms was to give her convenience in her future work, she thought it was a project arranged for her, or even a promotion for her, and had never thought about the situation today.
Yes, in her opinion, his personal guidance would make her happier than assigning her good projects or giving her a promotion!
"Thank you! I've heard of your name before and admired you very much. Now it seems that you are really amazing!" Su Xiao did not hide her admiration and respect for him.
Yun Che naturally saw the expression in her eyes. His pretty thin lips curled up slightly as he looked at her with a half-smile, his eyes growing increasingly fiery.
Su Xiao gradually went from being happy and excited to being shy, but at this moment, his cell phone rang.
He answered the call and mentioned the art exhibition.
Su Xiao immediately thought of the woman named Qing Muxue.
Gradually, from his words, Su Xiao determined that the person he was talking to was Qing Muxue.
