Chapter 36
Liang Rou suddenly turned her head, scaring Xiaoan so much that he almost suffocated.
"This protagonist is really too cowardly. He is sneaky in everything he does. Even when he meets someone he likes, he still does things in secret..." Liang Rou complained in a low voice.
Xiaoan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that they were discussing the plot.
When he heard Liang Rou's question, he became nervous again.
She was just thinking about other things and didn't pay attention to the plot at all.
"Yeah, yes, that's right." Xiaoan nodded randomly.
Liang Rou seemed to just complain a few words, then turned her head and started watching again.
The more Xiaoan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Why did Liang Rou's complaints sound so familiar?
Isn't she pointing at herself?
Seeing Liang Rou watching the movie seriously, Xiaoan felt that he was overthinking.
All the courage he had just mustered up disappeared. Xiaoan sighed in his heart and forced himself to watch the movie.
She didn't notice that Liang Rou, who was standing beside her, glanced at Xiao An with the corners of her lips raised in pleasure.
…
As the ending song of the movie sounded, Liang Rou stretched lazily, and her silk pajamas outlined her graceful curves as she moved.
Xiaoan paused for a moment, quickly looked away, and pretended to be very interested in the cup of water on the coffee table.
"They haven't come back yet. Do you want to watch another one?" Liang Rou shook the remote control and tapped the buttons lightly with her fingertips.
Xiaoan was about to nod when the doorbell suddenly rang.
Mimi jumped up from the carpet and rushed to the door excitedly.
"We're back!" Jiang Jiang's voice came through the door, accompanied by the rustling sound of plastic bags.
Liang Rou got up and opened the door.
Xiaoan sighed, her time alone with Liang Rou was over!
But when she saw the barbecue and beer in Jiang Jiang's hands, her eyes lit up again, "Wow, so many delicious foods!"
"It's to reward you!" Jiang Jiang shook the bag in his hand, and the aroma of barbecue immediately filled the air. "And your favorite crayfish."
Xiaobai poked her head out from behind her, holding a few bottles of wine in her arms, "And this!" Her cheeks were flushed, obviously she had secretly drunk a bottle on the way.
Xiao An swallowed, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, "Sister Liang Rou, let's eat together?"
"I won't..." Liang Rou was about to refuse, but Xiao An rushed forward and grabbed her wrist.
"Come on, come on!" Xiaoan's eyes sparkled in the light. "You've kept me here for so long this afternoon. Besides, there's more than the three of us can eat."
Jiang Jiang also nodded frantically, "Sister Liang Rou, come and eat together!"
Liang Rou looked down at her wrist being held, then at Xiao An's expectant expression, and finally smiled helplessly, "Okay, but you guys can eat here."
Because it’s not easy to clean up after eating.
Xiaoan's heart skipped a beat.
Do you want to continue staying at Liang Rou's house?
This is where Liang Rou often stays!
She tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth, but she couldn't control her burning ears.
Jiang Jiang felt a little embarrassed, "What a bother..."
"I'm just here to have a free meal!" Liang Rou interrupted her with a smile, "It's close anyway, so eat at my place. I can still make some room here!"
Mimi seemed to understand what her owner said, and excitedly circled around everyone, wagging her tail like a small propeller.
The light-colored furniture looks particularly cozy under the warm yellow light, and there are several pots of lush green plants on the balcony.
Xiaoan secretly looked at Liang Rourou's gentle profile, and even his breathing became cautious.
"I just happened to buy some fruit these past two days." Liang Rou brought out a plate of cut fruit from the kitchen. "There are drinks in the refrigerator. Do you want to take them out?"
"Sister Liang Rou, please get a bottle for Xiaobai. We won't drink it. We'll drink beer. Sister Liang Rou, what do you want to drink?" Jiang Jiang said.
Xiaobai secretly drank a bottle of wine on the way. She thought it was pretty good and wanted to drink more. However, it was Xiaobai's first time drinking and she only had one bottle of wine. Her face was flushed and she was a little tipsy.
Jiang Jiang was afraid that Xiaobai would do something scary after drinking too much, so he had to stop Xiaobai from drinking.
Liang Rou thought for a while and said, "I'll have a drink with you guys."
Xiaoan sat obediently on the edge of the sofa like an obedient primary school student, with his hands placed neatly on his knees.
She looked at Liang Rou's busy back and suddenly felt her throat dry.
It would be great if she could be busy with Liang Rou!
Liang Rou finished everything and sat down next to Xiao An, which made Xiao An's whole body tense up for a moment, and his eyes glanced secretly in Liang Rou's direction.
Jiang Jiang opened a beer for Liang Rou and handed Xiao An another can of beer. "Why are you acting so strange today?"
"What's strange about that?" Xiaoan quickly looked away and took a big gulp of wine to hide his panic.
Xiaobai couldn't wait to open the barbecue package, and the rich aroma immediately filled the entire living room.
Mimi lay pitifully beside the dining table, her black eyes staring at the food, but she was sensible enough not to go forward and ask for it.
"Good boy." Liang Rou rubbed Mimi's head and found a cowhide bone from the cabinet. "Here's one for you to chew on."
Mimi got the bone, wagged her tail happily, and took the bone to her nest to chew on it.
Four people sat around the coffee table, and the beer cans made a crisp sound when they collided.
Xiaobai's mouth was full of oil. Jiang Jiang grabbed the collar and lifted him up. "Don't just focus on eating. Cheers to Xiaoan. It was all thanks to her that day."
Xiaoan's face flushed slightly from drinking, and he waved his hands, "Oh, this is what a friend should do!"
Three wine glasses clinked in the air.
Liang Rou asked curiously, "What happened?"
Jiang Jiang and Xiaoan exchanged glances.
Xiaoan didn't say anything, so Jiang Jiang started to explain, "It was that day. Xiaobai and I went to the suburbs to play, but we got lost!"
She downplayed the situation, deliberately omitting the thrilling details of the kidnapping. "We had no other choice but to borrow a local's phone and call Xiaoan. Xiaoan drove over to pick us up without a word! He's such a loyal guy!"
"That's true..." Liang Rou gave Xiao An a thumbs up, "You're so loyal!"
Xiaoan's mouth was almost stretched to his ears when Liang Rou praised him.
After three rounds of drinks, the cheeks of the three people were flushed.
The juice Xiaobai drank had already metabolized the alcohol she had drunk before, so she was the only one present who was completely sober.
Xiaoan's eyes began to become a little confused, and he kept looking at Liang Rou beside him without any concealment.
Liang Rou blushed slightly and smiled, "Why are you looking at me?"
Xiaoan shook his head slowly, and after a long while he managed to utter, "You look good!"
Liang Rou's thinking was the clearest among the three. She just thought Xiaoan was drunk, rubbed Xiaoan's head, and went to discuss the next painting ideas with Xiaobai.
Xiaoan, whose head was being rubbed, immediately thought of the way Liang Rou rubbed Mimi's head before. She felt that Liang Rou mistook her for Mimi and pouted unhappily.
It was completely dark outside the window, and the street lights cast mottled shadows on the curtains.
After finishing the barbecue and drinking almost all the wine, everyone started to go home.
"It's so late?" Liang Rou checked the time, then looked at Xiao An, who was leaning on the sofa, feeling dizzy. "She drank so much, why don't she stay at my place tonight?"
Xiaoan was still dizzy and almost fell asleep, but Liang Rou's words made her completely awake, and her heart was beating so wildly that it almost burst out of her chest.
Where is she going to live?
Living in Liang Rou's house? ?
The thought made her breath quicken.
Jiang Jiang originally wanted to let Xiaoan sleep on the floor at her place, but when she saw Xiaoan's eyes light up, she immediately understood. "Huh? My place is small. I was thinking of calling a taxi to take her back. Sister Liang Rou, is that really okay? It's not too much trouble, right?"
"It's too late. It's not safe to go out. I happen to have some free space here." Liang Rou shook her head.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jiang pulled up Xiaobai, who was still confused and hadn't figured out what was going on, and said, "Sister Liang Rou, we're in trouble! Let's go back first!"
Before Liang Rou could respond, Jiang Jiang dragged Xiaobai out of the door as if escaping, leaving Xiaoan alone to face this sudden surprise.
…
Back at his apartment, Jiang Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the sofa.
Alcohol slowed her thinking, and everything in front of her was cast through a soft filter.
"Jiang Jiang, drink some water!" Xiaobai considerately handed over a cup of warm water, staring at Jiang Jiang's flushed cheeks without blinking.
Jiang Jiang took the cup of water and found that Xiaobai's gaze was so hot that it almost burned a hole in her face. She looked away embarrassedly, "What...what's wrong?" she asked puzzledly.
"Jiang Jiang! Jiang Jiang..." Xiaobai's voice suddenly became very soft, and his face moved closer. "Can I kiss you?"
Her eyes were serious and sincere.
This question was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples in Jiang Jiang's chaotic mind.
She was stunned for two seconds, looked at Xiaobai's expectant eyes, and nodded for some unknown reason.
Xiaobai's eyes and eyebrows softened as he leaned forward gently.
Her lips were softer than I'd imagined.
Jiang Jiang just felt as if he was even more drunk.
At first, Xiaobai just touched her lightly, like a butterfly flitting over petals, and Jiang Jiang could taste the sweet fragrance of the remaining juice on her lips.
When Xiaobai tentatively extended the tip of his tongue, Jiang Jiang's dizzy head was in a mess and he couldn't think of anything. He opened his mouth unconsciously and let the kiss deepen.
Alcohol amplified all the senses. Jiang Jiang felt like he was falling, and Xiaobai's arms became his only support.
When they finally separated, her breathing was already disordered.
"Jiang Jiang!" Xiaobai's eyes lit up and her breathing was a little breathless, "You're so sweet!" She stood up excitedly, jumped twice on the spot, and was at a loss, as if she couldn't express the joy that was overflowing in her heart.
For some reason, Jiang Jiang suddenly remembered what happened in the mall.
Alcohol gave her courage. She looked directly into Xiaobai's eyes and hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Xiaobai, what you said in the mall, is it true?"
Xiaobai tilted his head and thought for a few seconds, not quite understanding what the words were.
Seeing that Xiaobai didn't remember, Jiang Jiang suddenly felt that she was being a little pretentious. She smiled bitterly. It was obvious in that scene that Xiaobai said that she and Xiaobai were a couple. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that he was just trying to fool Lin Yue and deliberately set a trap for Lin Yue, but she took it seriously?
Xiaobai actually had a pretty good memory. He quickly recalled what he had said during that time, and suddenly realized, "Of course it's true!"
She excitedly grabbed Jiang Jiang's hand, "Jiang Jiang, Jiang Jiang! You have always been the one I love most in my heart!"
These words melted in Jiang Jiang's heart like honey. She lowered her head and nodded imperceptibly, but the corners of her mouth rose uncontrollably.
"Then you..." Jiang Jiang's voice became very low, a little embarrassed, "Then if you really want to be my woman..."
“Yes, yes, yes, yes!!” Xiaobai jumped up suddenly, but her eyes suddenly turned red, “I, I…” She didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt a lump in her throat. It was the feeling of finally getting what she had been waiting for for a thousand years.
Jiang Jiang looked at her tears in surprise, "Why are you crying?"
"I'm very happy!" Xiaobai wiped his face and said in a low voice.
Jiang Jiang looked at Xiaobai helplessly and dotingly, raised his hand and touched Xiaobai's head.
Xiaobai's eyes lit up as if he suddenly remembered something, "Then... can we go buy some finger gloves now?"
"What?" Jiang Jiang didn't react for a moment.
"It's a finger sleeve! The clerk said it's a couple's must-have!" Xiaobai explained innocently, "Since it's a couple's must-have, we're a couple, so if others have it, we should have it too..."
Jiang Jiang, "..." I'm afraid this guy doesn't even know what this is for!
Her face instantly turned from red to blue, and she slapped Xiaobai on the forehead, "Don't listen to other people's nonsense all day long!"
Xiaobai rubbed his forehead in grievance, not understanding why Jiang Jiang was suddenly angry, "Jiang Jiang... I didn't!"
Seeing that Jiang Jiang still ignored her, Xiaobai thought Jiang Jiang was still angry.
"I specifically checked. This is about couples paying attention to hygiene. I didn't listen to any nonsense!" Xiaobai said seriously, "I must ensure Jiang Jiang's hygiene and safety!"
Jiang Jiang, “…”
Ahhh, how did her cute, innocent, and easy-to-control little white dog turn into a little yellow dog? !
