Extra Lu Xingye Wu
Cheng Jiayuan didn't expect that he would be busy working until so late.
It seems that taking over the family business is not that easy. Outsiders only see his superficial style, but perhaps he has to put in a lot of hard work behind the scenes.
"Why are you out walking the dog so late?"
Just as I was thinking, my thoughts were interrupted by his words.
The dog at her feet was also looking at her. Its pointed ears made it look a little fierce. It looked at its owner and then looked at the man in front of it warily.
"I don't have time to write during the day, so I come out to get some fresh air before going to bed at night, and take it out for a walk."
"Working on a new book?"
Cheng Jiayuan was a little surprised: "How did you know?"
A smile flashed across Lu Xingye's eyes. Under the dim street lights, his handsome face seemed a little too handsome.
"I happened to read your last book. It's very well written, but I was a little surprised."
Cheng Jiayuan hadn't expected him to actually read his book. Upon hearing this, he asked, "What are you surprised about?"
"Maybe you're surprised by the contrast between Zhaixing's style and yours, but I really like Zhaixing's style."
"Thanks."
Oh no, what is she thanking for!
Cheng Jiayuan cursed herself for being quick-witted. She should have taken the opportunity to talk more about the book. Why did she end up talking so much again?
But her mind was full of uncontrollable thoughts, so he likes to pick stars...
My face turned red uncontrollably, but luckily the street lights were dim.
Perhaps because the atmosphere was so good, Cheng Jiayuan rarely interrupted: "You've been busy so late, have you eaten?"
Lu Xingye didn't answer directly, but asked with a smile: "Want to treat me to a meal?"
Cheng Jiayuan thought of the box of crabs her father had sent over that afternoon and nodded.
Although she can't cook, she can steam crabs.
"The restaurants around here are all closing. Why don't you come to my house for dinner? I haven't had time to eat yet."
"Will it be inconvenient?"
"Of course it's convenient."
"Sorry to bother you then."
Lu Xingye was actually not hungry at all, but he turned back as if possessed by some mysterious force just now, nodded, and followed Cheng Jiayuan into the villa area nearby.
She lives here alone because she needs quiet time for her writing.
Cheng Yi and Song Wan often go out for social events and come back late, while the other sometimes works the night shift and has a reversed day and night schedule. Not wanting to disturb Cheng Jiayuan, they bought her a villa here.
At this time, there are basically no people outside the villa area.
The security here is very good. The guard confirmed with Cheng Jiayuan before letting the man in when he saw him. The two of them walked along the quiet path to Cheng Jiayuan's house.
As soon as we entered the yard, the dog was untied and left to play by himself.
The interior of the house was fresh and elegant, with a strong personal style. Lu Xingye didn't look at it too much.
Cheng Jiayuan wanted to pour water to entertain him, but she didn't drink tea and didn't have any tea leaves.
Seeing this, Lu Xingye said, "Don't bother. If you don't mind, I'll help you."
In fact, as soon as he brought the person back, Cheng Jiayuan suddenly became nervous. After all, home is a very private place.
She quickly glanced at the living room and kitchen and found that her aunt had cleaned it very well. She felt relieved when she saw that there was nothing wrong.
When she heard Lu Xingye say he wanted to help, she was stunned for a moment: "Brother Xingye can cook?"
"Doesn't it look like it?" Lu Xingye said as he rolled up his sleeves, revealing his muscular arms, and walked towards the kitchen to wash his hands.
Cheng Jiayuan was very surprised, mainly because Lu Xingye did not look like someone who would enter the kitchen.
"I'm just a little surprised." She said and hurried to fish out the crabs that her aunt kept in the water tank.
Seeing this, Lu Xingye took the net bag and said, "Let me do it. Be careful not to get caught."
Their hands accidentally touched each other, and it was fleeting, but Cheng Jiayuan's heart skipped a beat.
Then he tried to find a topic: "The crabs are very good this season."
"Well, what flavor do you want?"
"I can do anything."
Lu Xingye looked at the crabs that were caught. They were indeed very good. They were all female crabs and looked very plump.
"Then let's make crab roe noodles."
"Will it be troublesome?"
"Won't."
As he spoke, he took action, taking tools to the sink to wash the crabs. His movements were calm and composed, like a chef.
If I didn't know, I would have thought this was his house and he was treating people to dinner.
Cheng Jiayuan wanted to help, but felt that there was no place for him to intervene and he felt that he was in the way.
Auntie organized all the kitchen utensils into categories, making it easy to find steamers, bowls and chopsticks.
Cheng Jiayuan looked at the kitchen, which was not yet familiar to Lu Xingye, the new arrival.
"Wait for me outside, it will be over in a moment."
Cheng Jiayuan had no choice but to go out and sit outside. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that inviting someone to dinner was like tricking them into cooking for her.
It's strange that I feel restrained as a guest in my own home.
Soon the overbearing aroma of fried crab roe came from the kitchen, and Cheng Jiayuan had no time to think about anything else.
I put the dishes in the dining room, washed some fruit and put it on a plate, and waited for dinner to start.
She was indeed hungry. The food smelled so good, even better than the food cooked by her aunt.
When Lu Xingye turned around, he saw her little eyes begging for food in the dining room, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
"Are you hungry? I'll be ready soon."
"Okay, I'm not in a hurry."
He said he was not in a hurry, but he couldn't hide the longing look in his eyes.
Lu Xingye couldn't help but speed up his movements.
Soon, two bowls of crab roe noodles were served on the table.
"Be careful of the heat."
Cheng Jiayuan nodded quickly: "It smells so good, even better than the ones in the restaurants outside."
She couldn't wait to pick up some crab meat and mix it with noodles and put it into her mouth, and then she was amazed.
How can someone be so omnipotent?
A sentence suddenly popped up in Cheng Jiayuan's mind: She is really good at both housework and socializing.
She thought this was the best crab roe noodles she had ever eaten.
The two sat opposite each other, eating noodles quietly, and no one spoke for a while.
However, happy times are always short. After dinner, Lu Xingye got up and said goodbye.
Cheng Jiayuan was about to see him off, but when they reached the gate, Lu Xingye signaled her to stop.
"It's too late, go to bed early."
"Okay, you too."
After saying that, she watched Lu Xingye's back as he left in the night, and only looked away when she could no longer see her.
Lu Xingye returned to the parking lot and was about to drive away when he found an extra ticket on the car.
（ ）
So you can't park here?
He then noticed that the cars that had been parked here had all left, and they must have been parked there temporarily.
