Chapter 42. If you love me, kiss me
Seeing Xu Jiaru looking at him with hopeful eyes, Xie Fei's cold eyes couldn't help but be tinged with a bit of heartache. He nodded and said solemnly: "Of course, you can eat whatever you want."
Xu Jiaru grinned in surprise, her eyebrows curved, and the two dimples on her cheeks looked like they were filled with honey. She put her two short hands around Xie Fei's neck again, tilted her little head close to him and whispered coyly, "Thank you, Brother Fei. Jiaru doesn't eat much, a little bit will be enough." As she spoke, she stretched out a hand and made a gesture.
This well-behaved little look is as adorable as it can be.
Xie Fei's heart softened, his chest overflowing with tenderness, he couldn't help but kiss Xu Jiaru heavily on the forehead, praising: "Little Mushroom is so good."
"Yeah!" Xu Jiaru's black gemstone eyes flashed, and she nodded happily. She hugged Xie Fei tighter with her short hands, pulled his head down, pouted and kissed his chin, and praised with a smile: "Brother Fei is so nice."
Being praised by a little kid, Xie Fei rubbed Xu Jiaru's hair with a bit of amusement, and carried her out of the car: "Let's go buy you some daily necessities first, and then go eat fried chicken, okay?"
"Okay." Xu Jiaru responded softly. As if she suddenly remembered something, she loosened her hands and struggled slightly. She said a little embarrassedly, "Brother Fei, put me down and walk by yourself. Your hands must be sore."
Xie Fei was stunned for a moment, then he bent down to put the little ball down, stretched out his big palm to hold her small hand, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll lead you away."
Xu Jiaru's eyes curved, and she tentatively stretched out her little hand to pinch Xie Fei's thumb. After succeeding, she happily jumped and followed him forward.
The bustling city center is still bustling with lights and people even at night, with a constant flow of traffic.
It was the first time that Xu Jiaru saw such a tall house, the first time she saw colorful neon lights, the first time she saw all kinds of exquisite and beautiful little things in the window, and the first time she felt the hustle and bustle... There were so many firsts that her eyes could hardly see enough, and no matter what it was, she felt it was magical.
After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the department store. Xu Jiaru raised her head and looked at the intricate and exquisite door in shock. Everything inside the door was brightly lit, as dazzling as the sun. For a moment, she followed Xie Fei in subconsciously in a daze.
Xu Jiaru stayed close to Xie Fei all the way. Such a luxurious scene made her feel a little helpless and she lowered her head. She couldn't help but hold her breath. She didn't dare to look around and just stared at her toes.
Xie Fei took Xu Jiaru to the children's specialty area. He pointed at a children's toothbrush and asked, "Do you like this?"
Xu Jiaru looked up and saw all kinds of cute things. She was overwhelmed. Following Xie Fei's hand, she saw a pink cat toothbrush. Her eyes lit up and she looked at Xie Fei and nodded, "I like it."
The two worked together and quickly selected the things. Li Ting followed them out the door with his hands full of bags. Xie Fei looked at his watch, turned around and said to him, "Secretary Li, it's so late now. You should put the things in the car and go back first. The driver and bodyguard are here."
Li Ting nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back first. Mr. Xie, please call me if you have anything."
"Yeah." Xie Fei responded lightly, and took Xu Jiaru to the nearest KFC.
When she opened the door, the familiar and tempting fragrance came to her face. Xu Jiaru raised her head in surprise, staring at Xie Fei with her bright eyes, holding his little hand a little tighter, and called out tenderly: "Brother Fei, this is the fragrance!"
Xie Fei smiled and gently squeezed her little hand, then picked her up and went to the ordering counter. He casually took out a menu and handed it to her: "Look, which one do you want to eat?"
Xu Jiaru happily held the menu and looked at it one by one, and in a moment her eyes widened in surprise.
This was too expensive. Two small chicken wings cost ten yuan, and the cheapest one was eight yuan. Those numbers that she didn't recognize must be even more expensive. Shocked, Xu Jiaru pursed her lips with a guilty and uneasy feeling. She secretly glanced at Xie Fei, thinking about not eating it. But then she remembered that she was the one who was eating fried chicken, and if she was so willful and disobedient, Xie Fei might not like her anymore.
After thinking about this for a long time, Xu Jiaru finally pointed to the cheapest fried chicken wings and whispered, "Just this one, is it okay?"
Xie Fei nodded and said calmly: "Anything else?"
"No more, this is enough." Shaking her head in fear, Xu Jiaru stuffed the menu to Xie Fei as if it was still a hot potato, and said in a muffled voice, "I have a small stomach, so I will be full after eating a little."
Seeing her leaning softly in his arms, her little mouth pouting as she explained, her short hands tightly around his neck, her big pretty eyes blinking, but she didn't dare to look at him, there was no joy on her little face, only uneasiness.
Seeing this, Xie Fei could no longer understand the little guy's thoughts. He felt a little distressed and amused, and his heart was both sweet and sour for a moment.
Taking a deep breath, Xie Fei nodded as if he really believed her words, and said in cooperation: "But Brother Fei has a big stomach, he needs to eat a lot to be full."
Xu Jiaru was stunned. She didn't quite understand what he meant. She tilted her head and looked at him in confusion. The next moment, she saw Xie Fei pointing at the menu and ordering a series of things.
She opened her mouth in surprise. At this time, Xie Fei looked at her sideways, pointed at a drink and asked, "How about orange juice?"
Xu Jiaru nodded blankly, and the next moment she immediately reached out to cover Xie Fei's mouth as he was about to speak, glanced at the frighteningly expensive orange juice, shook her head and whispered, "No, Brother Fei, orange juice is too expensive, I'll just drink boiled water when I get home."
Xie Fei reached out and held her little hand, rubbing it, and whispered back: "Brother Fei has a lot of money, and he can still afford to raise a little mushroom like you, so you don't have to save money for me."
Xu Jiaru looked at him doubtfully, and when she saw Xie Fei nodded affirmatively, she blushed and smiled shyly, hugged his neck, buried her little face in his neck, and whispered in a baby voice: "Thank you, Brother Fei, I'm easy to raise, and I don't need a lot of money."
Xie Fei reached out and rubbed the back of her head, nodded and smiled: "Well, our Jiaru is full after eating a little bit, so she is so easy to feed. Brother Fei will take good care of her for the rest of her life."
Xu Jiaru suddenly raised her head, and stared at Xie Fei with a pair of black gemstone-like eyes: "For a lifetime?!"
"Yes, for a lifetime." Xie Fei responded affirmatively.
Xu Jiaru smiled happily, her eyes curved, and she hugged Xie Fei's neck contentedly and rubbed it, saying in a tender voice: "Keep your word, for a lifetime."
As they were talking, the waiter came over with a tray. Xie Fei held Xu Jiaru in one hand and held the tray in the other, and found a quiet corner to sit down.
Xu Jiaru sat next to Xie Fei, staring at the fragrant plate without blinking. She smacked her lips, subconsciously licked the corner of her mouth with the tip of her tongue, and swallowed her saliva unconsciously a few times.
Xie Fei opened the small boxes and bags one by one, pushed the plate in front of her, and said with a smile: "Try it and see if it tastes the same?"
Unexpectedly, Xu Jiaru looked up at Xie Fei, pushed the plate back to him, and said softly, "Brother Fei, you eat first."
"Okay." Xie Fei took out the coffee from the tray and took a sip, then looked at her and said, "I've already eaten, now it's Jiaru's turn."
"Brother Fei, don't you want to eat these?" Xu Jiaru asked puzzledly, pointing at fried chicken, French fries, hamburgers and other things.
Xie Fei pinched Xu Jiaru's little face and said lovingly, "These are all for us, Jiaru. You must enjoy them."
Xu Jiaru's nose felt sore, and her little heart felt sweet, as if she was wrapped in circles of cotton candy. In her entire life, no one had ever been so kind to her, so kind that she couldn't help but wonder if she was dreaming. How could there really be a prince like Brother Fei in this world? And how could such an inconspicuous person like her become a princess cared for by a prince?
This must be a dream, such a sweet dream, she wishes she would never wake up from it...
"What are you daydreaming about?" Xie Fei bent his index finger and tapped Xu Jiaru's head gently. He supported his chin with his other hand and turned his head to stare at her, smiling with his eyebrows and eyes, full of doting. "Eat quickly, the fried chicken is getting cold."
Xu Jiaru came back to her senses in a daze. She pursed her lips and smiled brightly. Her eyes, which were filled with tears, were like shining stars in the sky. She looked at Xie Fei with her childish face and smiled sweetly, "Jiaru will eat well."
As she spoke, she held a piece of fried chicken leg in her two small hands and put it to her nose and sniffed hard, then she opened her little mouth and took a bite. The chicken was juicy and fragrant, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and her mouth was full of fragrance after one bite. Xu Jiaru squinted her eyes in satisfaction, puffed up her cheeks and bit the chicken, her little cheeks moving like a little squirrel eating.
Xie Fei smiled as he watched her nibble on the chicken leg in small bites. There was a circle of gravy around her little mouth, and some crumbs on the corners of her mouth. Her satisfied look was pleasing to the eye.
How can she be so cute while eating? He quietly admired in his heart, and the smile in his eyes became more and more intense.
After finishing the chicken legs quickly, Xu Jiaru's greasy little hands reached out to the chicken wings. She was so happy eating with her eyes curved. Seeing her satisfied look, Xie Fei was also very happy. He reached out and took the ketchup, tore it open, squeezed it evenly on the French fries, then took out one and handed it to her mouth.
Xie Fei's hands were slender, white, and well-defined, and every move was pleasing to the eye. When Xu Jiaru stretched out his hand, she was attracted and couldn't take her eyes away. When she tilted her head, she saw the French fries being handed to her mouth. She subconsciously opened her mouth and ate them. They were sour, sweet, soft, glutinous, and fragrant, and the fragrance lingered on her lips and teeth for a while.
She asked in a baby voice, "Brother Fei, what is this?"
"French fries are fried in potato oil and taste best with ketchup." Xie Fei wiped his hands with a tissue and said lightly.
tasty?
Xu Jiaru's big eyes were clear and bright. She looked at Xie Fei seriously and thought for a while. After a moment, she put down the chicken wings in her hand, picked up a French fry instead, stretched out her little arm and handed it to his mouth, saying softly, "Brother Fei, it's delicious, you eat it."
