Chapter 102: Maybe I'm Too Sensitive



"If it tastes good, eat more." Xia Congjie stared at Su Nan's fair face without blinking.

Su Nan noticed this and frowned. When she looked over again, he had already turned his head to organize the filming materials.

Su Nan swallowed the mung bean cake in his mouth, thinking that he had just seen it wrong.

After that, people came to the photo studio one after another to take photos, most of them were families with their children.

As the year draws to a close, everyone wants to leave a commemoration of the year. The most common way is to take photos, but taking photos is not cheap. A black and white photo costs a dollar, and a framed photo costs double that.

Therefore, most of the people who come to take photos are "small-income families" with jobs in the county town. They are well dressed, so few of them will change into clothes in the photo studio, which reduces Su Nan's workload.

There were one or two little girls who wanted to put on makeup when they saw the cosmetics, but they were scolded and sent away by their parents.

This made Su Nan think about it. If she could take on private makeup jobs, would she be able to make more money? After all, city girls are definitely more concerned about beauty than country girls, and they are also more well-off.

This thought just flashed through her mind, and she hadn't yet considered putting it into action.

When he was not busy, Su Nan would chat with Jiang Hongqin, and it was soon time to get off work.

"I'm leaving first. I have to pick up my eldest child. See you tomorrow." Jiang Hongqin waved to Su Nan and hurried away with her bag.

"See you tomorrow." Su Nan waved to Jiang Hongqin and watched her leave.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Xia Congjie's face, which really scared her. She covered her chest and took a step back.

"Did I scare you?" Xia Congjie pushed the glasses on his nose, and a trace of embarrassment and ashamedness appeared on his handsome and clean face.

"It's okay, it's just that you suddenly appeared behind me and I didn't react for a moment." Su Nan shook his head politely.

Xia Congjie laughed dryly and explained, "I just wanted to come over to ask you how you're going to get home later. Sister Hongqin told me you live on Wutong Street, and I'm going your way. Do you want to take my car and go back together?"

Hearing this, Su Nan subconsciously refused and quickly waved his hand and said, "No, I'll go back and do it myself. Thank you."

After saying that, Su Nan hurried to the back of the counter to get his own bag, then said hello to Master Kong and left.

Xia Congjie leaned against the door, watching Su Nan's slim back as she left. He touched his chin thoughtfully, and only after the pretty figure disappeared around the corner of the street did he turn around and enter the photo studio.

After Xia Congjie entered the photo studio, Su Nan came out from the corner with a frown on his face.

Why is this person so weird? The burning look in his eyes when he looked at her made her feel uncomfortable. She felt like she was being stared at by a sinister and venomous snake.

But there was nothing unusual about Xia Congjie's behavior and words, only his eyes were strange, which made her begin to wonder if she was too sensitive and overthinking.

Perhaps Xia Congjie's way of expressing his warmth and friendliness is different from others.

Su Nan touched the back of his neck and found that he was sweating all over.

Afterwards, Su Nan went to the state-owned restaurant for dinner before returning home. When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard and was taking out the key, he saw Aunt Zhao coming towards him holding a chubby child.

"Xiao Su." Aunt Zhao had sharp eyes and saw Su Nan at a glance. She quickly greeted him with a smile.

"Aunt Zhao." Su Nan also greeted her with a smile.

Aunt Zhao came over with the child in her arms. Seeing Su Nan like this, she asked, "Are you back from work?"

"Yeah, whose baby is this? He's so cute."

What Su Nan said was indeed true. The child in Aunt Zhao's arms was wearing a new red cotton-padded jacket, which made his skin look even whiter. Coupled with his chubby little face and big eyes, he looked like a little boy who had walked out of a New Year picture.

Nowadays, if a child can wear new clothes and eat so much to gain weight, then his family conditions must be good, and he must be loved by his family.

As expected, when Aunt Zhao heard Su Nan's praise, she smiled so hard that her face wrinkles were squeezed together. She said happily, "This is my grandson. Isn't he cute? Others say he is good-looking, but I think he is just average."

Su Nan smiled and didn't respond. He was used to this kind of self-deprecation among parents.

"Hey, my relatives in the countryside just gave me a bag of dried sweet potatoes this morning. I'll bring you some. They're pretty good as a snack."

As Aunt Zhao spoke, she stuffed the child into Su Nan's arms. She had accepted the egg cake from Su Nan last time and had always wanted to repay the favor, but she hadn't found the opportunity. Now was the perfect time.

"I'll come and pick him up later. Xiao Su, please hold him for a while. I'll be back soon." Aunt Zhao said hurriedly and strode away.

"Oh..." No more.

Seeing Aunt Zhao running away, Su Nan took back his refusal and stared blankly at the little meat bun in his arms, his head buzzing.

Aunt Zhao is really tolerant. Isn't she afraid that Su Nan might be a bad person? If she sells her precious grandson, who will she cry to?

A gust of cold wind blew, making Su Nan shrink his neck and quickly opened the gate and went into the house.

It's okay for her, an adult, to be blown by the cold wind, but if this guy catches a cold, it will be no joke.

"What else can you do besides blowing bubbles?" Su Nan put the little fat boy on his bed, rubbed his sore arms, and pointed at him with his hands on his hips.

This little guy is really powerful.

The little fat boy had no idea what Su Nan was talking about. When he saw Su Nan pointing at him, he thought she was playing a game with him, so he quickly narrowed his eyes and smiled. His bell-like laughter immediately healed Su Nan.

"Wow, so cute, let sister hug him." Su Nan smiled like an auntie. She sat on the bed and held the little fat boy in her arms, feeling very fond of him.

Sometimes I poked his little face, sometimes I poked his long eyelashes, just like playing with a moving toy.

"Will I also give birth to a child as cute as you in the future?" Su Nan couldn't help but think about it for a moment, but couldn't imagine what it would look like.

Anyway, with Zhou Rang and I's looks, we will never give birth to an ugly baby.

"What child?"

Suddenly, a deep male voice with a smile sounded at the door. Su Nan turned around abruptly and saw Zhou Rang in black leaning against the door, his eyes slightly narrowed with a hint of meaning.

She didn't know how long he had been standing there, but she didn't even notice him.

Judging from Zhou Rang's expression, he must have heard everything she said. Why was he walking without making any sound?

It's so embarrassing.

Two blushes appeared on Su Nan's face. She blinked and didn't know how to respond for a moment. Her heart was pounding and her arms around the little fat boy tightened involuntarily.
