Chapter 217 Nowhere to Seek Justice

"Don't think about it," Si Jingxu pinched her nose. "They won't let you eat at home. If I take you there, Uncle Shen won't even let me in the door."

“My uncle isn’t that fierce,” Yan Buyu nuzzled closer to him, resting her chin on his chest, looking up at him with a pitiful expression, “I’ll only eat it once.”

The girl's clear black eyes reflected her own appearance, gazing at him expectantly, as if she would burst into tears if he said no.

Si Jingxu's breath hitched.

Open your mouth to refuse.

"Okay," he heard himself say.

Yan Buyu smiled happily, "Brother Jingxu is the best! I knew you would take me to eat. I didn't eat enough at noon today. I'm going to eat a lot later. Brother Jingxu, I like you the most."

Si Jingxu sighed.

At worst, I'll just get scolded by Uncle Shen, Shen Yanzhou, and Shen Yunqi in turn.

Which son-in-law didn't go through this before getting married?

It's rare for Little Feather to act cute and affectionate with me.

Just once, just once.

No matter how much she pleads next time, I won't agree.

must.

Without saying a word, he led the way, making several turns until they found a skewer shop.

It wasn't lunchtime yet, so there weren't many people.

The shopkeeper and several customers were taken aback when two well-dressed, handsome young man and beautiful young woman suddenly walked in.

Like visitors who have stumbled into another dimension.

Without saying a word, he skillfully took out a tissue to wipe the table.

Si Jingxu took it, "I'll do it, you order."

“Hehe,” Yan Buyu chuckled, “Brother Jingxu, it’s obvious you’ve never been to a place like this before. No need to order, just look at the pots over there, go and get whatever you want to eat.”

Si Jingxu had indeed never been here before. He glanced in the direction she pointed and frowned.

With all sorts of ingredients, both meat and vegetables, cooked and put into a big pot, it's no wonder it's not hygienic.

"Buyu," Si Jingxu bent down and asked in a low voice, "How about I take you to eat something else? How about hot pot? I'm afraid it will upset your stomach."

He remained silent and unwilling.

"It's okay, you don't need to eat." She took the plate to get some food.

Si Jingxu followed behind her helplessly, watching her select one skewer after another.

Steaming hot skewers are placed on the table, with the sauce prepared.

She remained silent, not touching her chopsticks, and seemed slightly dazed.

This was a shop she would only 'indulge' at once during holidays in her past life.

When Yan Qihang appeared a while ago, she suddenly remembered this place.

Following the route I remembered, I found it was indeed still there.

Having grown accustomed to delicacies from land and sea in this life, the taste here is far from as delicious as I remember.

Having gotten used to a good life, my family has spoiled my palate.

These meat dishes were ones she wouldn't have been willing to choose in her previous life.

"Is it too spicy?" Si Jingxu unscrewed a bottle of beverage and placed it in front of her.

"This looks spicy, but it's actually not that bad." Yan Buyu lowered her eyes and didn't look at him. She picked up a meatball and put it in her mouth.

"Little Feather," Si Jingxu called to her.

"Hmm." He swallowed without saying a word; the meatballs had been soaking for too long and didn't taste good anymore.

"If it's not good, then don't eat it." Si Jingxu moved the plate in front of her away. "What happened?"

“Ruan Censhu came to see me,” Yan Buyu took a sip of her slightly chilled drink and looked at him with a smile. “She wants me to persuade Yan Qihang to agree to let her have the child. Isn’t that ridiculous?”

“It’s not laughable,” Si Jingxu said, grasping her hand. “It’s shameful.”

An old woman, old enough to be his little Yu Mao's grandmother, still has the nerve to come over and ask her to be a mediator.

shameful.

Yan Qihang, who only cares about money and not people, is not only shameful but also deserves to die.

"Brother Jingxu." Yan Buyu rested her chin on one hand, tilting her head to look at the man opposite her, whose eyes were full of heartache.

"Yes, I'm here." Si Jingxu was completely captivated by her gaze, and his voice became even gentler.

"I want a hug," Yan Buyu said softly, a smile playing on her lips as she blinked.

"I couldn't be happier." Si Jingxu was itching to go. "Let's go, didn't we want to see a movie?"

After saying that, he got up to pay the bill, and then, under Yan Buyu's astonished gaze, walked to her side and picked her up in his arms.

“Hey, no,” Yan Buyu instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, “that’s not what I meant.”

“That’s what I meant,” Si Jingxu said with a smug look on his face. “It’s rare for my little feather to ask for a hug, so as her boyfriend, I have to grant her wish.”

A tall, imposing man, with a carefree smile on his face, easily held a petite and adorable girl in his arms.

The girl, perhaps out of shyness, buried her small face in the crook of his neck.

Her long black hair covered her face, with slightly curled ends, making her look cute and playful.

Si Jingxu carried the person all the way to the car and didn't let go of them while in the car.

"Alright, no one's here anymore, don't get bored." Si Jingxu couldn't stop smiling as her face pressed against his neck; the intimate skin-to-skin contact felt wonderful.

However, he couldn't be too selfish; his girlfriend would get bored if they stayed like this for too long.

"How can you be like this?" Yan Buyu raised her head, her face still flushed from embarrassment, her tone both coquettish and reproachful, "You're not nice now, you don't even ask permission to hug me."

Si Jingxu raised his chin. "Oh, you can kiss and hug me whenever you want, but I have to ask permission to hug you? What happened to gender equality?"

"I didn't touch you, you..." He remained silent for a long time, not knowing what to say.

Si Jingxu seized the opportunity to peck her lips. "It's rare that there are no third wheels today. Are you sure you want to waste such precious time arguing with me about this?"

She pursed her lips and said, "Brother Jingxu."

"Hmm?" Si Jingxu twirled a strand of her hair on his finger. "Kiss me if you want. Brother Jingxu isn't that stingy. You don't have to ask for permission."

"No, I meant to say that Mu Zi is following behind."

Si Jingxu's lips twitched, and he glanced in the rearview mirror, where he indeed saw the motorcycle.

have to.

There's even a certified light bulb here.

"Can you let her go home early? I'll protect you, okay? I'll make sure you get home safely, alright?" Si Jingxu pressed his forehead against Yan's, remaining silent. "Don't you ever have a single time alone together?"

"Why don't you ask Mu Zi?" Yan Buyu gently touched Si Jingxu's face reassuringly.

Mu Zi is quite stubborn.

Sure enough, after getting off the bus, Si Jing told Mu Zi to leave, but she refused no matter what.

She remained expressionless, uttering only two sentences: "I am Miss's personal bodyguard."

"I was invited by the young master."

Si Jingxu sighed.

No wonder, Shen Yanzhou replied "I know" when he learned that he was taking Xiao Yumo to the movies.

They didn't say they were bringing Shen Lao Er to cause trouble.

"Alright, Mu Zi is very quiet. She doesn't say much, so it won't affect the viewing experience," Yan Buyu said, tiptoeing to pat Si Jingxu's head to comfort him.

Si Jingxu hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

My girlfriend is too naive.

Which couple goes to the movies just to watch them?

but……

Why……

There's nowhere to reason with them.
