Think about it
Xiao Mu showed an innocent look. "Can't I ask?"
"..." Xu Xi was anxious but couldn't utter a word. She had no right to deny Xiao Mu the right to ask Chen Shuning questions. Besides, she also wanted to know the answers to these questions. However, Xu Xi found Xiao Mu's questions a bit strange. He had originally been praising Chen Shuning for her helpfulness, but why did he suddenly change the subject and ask if she had someone she liked and what kind of person she liked.
This instantly made her feel impatient.
Chen Shuning tilted his head slightly, his gaze resting on Xu Xi's face for a moment before looking at Xiao Mu, and said softly, "It's okay, there's nothing to be said. Whether you like someone or not depends on fate. If fate has arrived, we can be together."
"Too."
Xiao Mu blinked. This answer, while not directly addressing the question, also left room for maneuver, giving everyone room to maneuver. She glanced at her childhood friend next to her and decided to give up. She didn't want to look at her again. She turned around and took Xu Xi and Chen Shuning into her home.
Xu Xi was originally anxious, but when she heard Chen Shuning mention the word "fate", it was as if a ray of sunshine shone into her heart, and she suddenly felt warm. Because from the time she met Chen Shuning until now, she always felt that there was a strong fate between them, and there were all kinds of coincidences between them that allowed them to get along smoothly.
Although her mood had eased, looking at Xiao Mu's back, Xu Xi still felt in her heart that she had to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Xiao Mu and ask her not to talk nonsense in front of her and Chen Shuning. She must not ruin her pursuit of the person.
When I entered Xiao Mu's rental house, there was actually a large order inside. Standing at the door and looking into the house, the things inside were clearly visible.
Xu Xi gently put down the things in her hands. "You don't have any place to put things here."
Xiao Mu walked to the window, opened the curtains, and turned to her. "When I first rented this place, I thought it was just a place to sleep, close to work. I usually eat at the store, so I don't think too much about it. Let's put these things in the corner for now. After the store is renovated in a few days, I'll move them back."
After saying that, Xiao Mu asked Xu Xi and Chen Shuning to sit down first, while he went to prepare the barbecued food again and they would grill and eat them later.
Xu Ximo remained silent, thinking of taking a look at the window. Just as he raised his foot, Chen Shuning was about to walk towards that side at this time. However, because he was one step faster than Chen Shuning, he bumped into Chen Shuning directly.
Then, she almost knocked Chen Shuning down. Fortunately, when Chen Shuning's body tilted, she wanted to hug Chen Shuning.
Xu Xi hurriedly straightened the person, and was so nervous that she stuttered when she spoke.
"Shuning, are you okay?"
Chen Shuning casually straightened her clothes, smiling naturally and relaxedly, and shook her head. "It's okay."
She looked into Xu Xi's eyes, then toward the window. "Let's go over and take a look."
Xu Xi's nervous heart had not yet calmed down. Fearing that she would continue to stutter, she did not speak, but just nodded slightly.
The two of them stood side by side by the window. Xu Xi leaned both arms on the window sill and looked out. She found that from here she could see clearly what was being sold on the street in the night market. This was a night market, so the street was still very lively. The lights were still flashing, and there were still many pedestrians coming and going downstairs.
If you don't look at the time and just look at this scene, you really wouldn't think it's midnight.
Chen Shuning said casually, "It's so lively here."
"Yeah." Xu Xi nodded. She suddenly remembered Chen Shuning's apartment building. The area around there was quiet, and even if you stayed inside, you couldn't hear any noise from outside. So Chen Shuning must like quietness.
Xu Xi wanted to take this opportunity to ask Chen Shuning about the house in a roundabout way.
"You probably prefer quietness. The environment around your house is so quiet."
Chen Shuning: "Yes, I'm usually too tired after work and want to have a good rest. I don't want to be disturbed by the noisy environment around me."
"Is that why you chose such a high floor?"
"No." Chen Shuning turned around, leaning against the window, and looked at Xu Xi. "I chose a high floor because sometimes I want to see the stars, and the summer sunsets are beautiful."
Xu Xi propped up one arm, supported her chin with one hand, and looked at Chen Shuning. "The rooftop is better for watching the stars. Have you ever thought about renting a top-floor apartment?"
"I've thought about it, but not renting." Chen Shuning tucked her hair away from her ears and smiled at Xu Xi. "I'm thinking of buying. When my life settles down, I'll buy a top-floor apartment, plant some flowers and plants, and watch the stars from them."
Xu Xi blinked blankly. Just thinking about these scenes in her mind made her feel so happy.
And just like that, she found out what kind of house Chen Shuning liked, so simply and so smoothly.
