◎What the hell is this man doing!◎
Many people stayed up late on New Year's Eve. As soon as Xu Yingxi posted on WeChat Moments, she received several likes.
By the time I took a sip of water and picked up my phone, the roommate group had become lively.
Liu Xueyi: [Oh my god, I was just scrolling through my Moments and I think I saw someone officially announced something?!]
Liu Xueyi: [Xixi, did you and Song Xueshen just go public together?]
Liu Xueyi: [Am I seeing things right? The fireworks photos you posted were probably taken from the same location, right?]
Zheng Lei: [You're not mistaken. I compared them carefully and they were indeed filmed in the same place.]
Chai Mengtian: [! ! ]
Chai Mengtian: [How come you two are posting faster than me? I haven't even seen Xixi's Moments!]
Chai Mengtian: [I’m going to watch it now!]
Messages popped up one after another, making it even more lively than when everyone was in school.
Xu Yingxi: [It's so late, and you're all still awake? ]
Zheng Lei: [The firecrackers outside were too loud. I couldn't sleep, so I got up and wrote some code.]
Xu Yingxi: […As expected of Sister Lei!]
Liu Xueyi: [Sister Lei is awesome! ]
Liu Xueyi: [I just finished a video call with my boyfriend, hehe.]
Liu Xueyi: [Luckily I didn't sleep, otherwise I would have missed your good news, Xixi!]
Liu Xueyi: [But your official announcement was quite subtle. You only released two fireworks. You wouldn't be able to tell unless you looked closely!]
Liu Xueyi: [Do you have any couple photos you could send us to feast our eyes on?]
Xu Yingxi suddenly realized that Song Siyao came from such a far place to see her today, but she only wanted to take pictures of the fireworks and forgot to take a few photos with him.
Not just today, ever since they met, it seemed like the only photos of the two of them together were a few group photos taken in the lab.
Xu Yingxi: [Not yet.]
When she returns to the city in a few days, she will definitely ask Xu Xingluo to take a few photos of them.
Just as I was thinking about it, Chai Mengtian appeared in the group again.
Chai Mengtian: [Sisters!!!]
Chai Mengtian: [Guess what I saw on WeChat Moments?]
Chai Mengtian: [Song Xueshen liked the photo Qi Wangzhou posted earlier, hahaha!]
Chai Mengtian: [I'm dying of laughter, haha. What is this? This is murderous and heartbreaking!]
Chai Mengtian: [@Xixi, your boyfriend has a natural talent for making people angry. Qi must be pissed to death!]
Liu Xueyi: [Hahahaha? Is this true? I need to go see for myself!]
Zheng Lei: [+1]
Seeing that all the roommates were eating melons, Xu Yingxi couldn't help herself and switched back to the Moments page to eat her own melons.
There were many new message notifications at the top, probably all likes and comments on her recent post on WeChat Moments.
Xu Yingxi didn't click to read it, but scrolled down and found the photo of the bracelet that Qi Wangzhou had posted before.
In the likes list, the three words "Song Siyao" were clearly written.
Before today, Xu Yingxi had never seen Song Siyao like a post from their mutual friends, so she always thought that this person never checked his Moments.
Xu Yingxi silently took a screenshot and sent it to Song Siyao.
Xu Yingxi: [[Picture]]
Xu Yingxi: [Senior Brother Song, what's going on?]
Xu Yingxi: [You said you weren't jealous, but now you're stuck!]
Song Siyao: [There was a little bit before.]
Xu Yingxi: [What do you mean?]
Song Siyao: [Now that I have a legitimate status, there's no need to argue with him anymore.]
Xu Yingxi: “…”
The curve of her mouth grew wider and wider, and finally, she couldn't help laughing out loud again.
No one would believe him!
If you really don't care, why would you give Qi Wangzhou a thumbs up!
Childish and hypocritical!
…
In a mixture of joy and excitement, Xu Yingxi rolled around in bed for a long time and finally fell asleep.
Fortunately, although she went to bed a little late, she slept very soundly.
When I woke up, it was almost time for lunch.
Perhaps they wanted her to have a good rest, so neither her parents nor Xu Zhaoxue came into the room to wake her up.
Xu Yingxi was brushing her teeth while casually looking at her phone.
After the official announcement on WeChat Moments last night, her phone was bombarded with countless messages until she woke up in the morning.
Not to mention the likes and comments in the circle of friends, many familiar friends and classmates also sent private messages to her, asking what was going on between her and Song Siyao.
Xu Yingxi couldn't reply, so she clicked on the message from Xu Xingluo that was pinned to the top of the page.
Xu Xingluo: [Mom! Good morning! Happy New Year!]
Xu Xingluo: [Hey hey! ]
Xu Xingluo: [My dad told me you think brown sugar rice cakes are delicious. I'll make them for you when you come back, Mom!]
Xu Xingluo: [Now that I have experience, I can definitely make it even more delicious!]
Song Siyao also sent her several messages, telling her that he had checked out of the hotel, got on the highway, and returned home to see Xu Xingluo.
He got up much earlier than her and drove back while she was still asleep.
Chai Mengtian also sent a message.
Chai Mengtian: [Xixi, latest news. When I woke up, I saw that the post Qi Wangzhou posted in the early morning on WeChat Moments was gone.]
Chai Mengtian: [I guess he felt too embarrassed and deleted the photo in shame.]
Chai Mengtian: [He's quite sensible. This guy is no match for Song Xueshen in every way. He should feel ashamed of himself!]
Chai Mengtian: [By the way, I saw Xiao Xuedi also posted a message on WeChat Moments this morning. He looked quite pitiful. I guess he was really upset by your new relationship.]
Chai Mengtian: [But Xixi, don't worry. I am now a complete supporter of Song Xueshen. Xixi, if you need anything, let me, Dongfang Buku, protect your love!]
There were so many messages that it took Xu Yingxi a while to reply to them all.
Xu Zhaoxue knocked on the bedroom door and said that lunch was ready and we could go downstairs to eat.
Xu Yingxi replied, "I know, I'll be right there!"
…
At the same time, on the other side of the dining table.
"Dad, tell me more!" Xu Xingluo stared at Song Siyao, his face full of curiosity and excitement. "What was my mother's reaction when she first saw you last night? What did you say? How did my mother feel moved by you?"
Song Siyao slowly picked up the water cup and took a sip, unmoved: "I don't remember clearly."
Xu Xingluo blurted out: "How is that possible!"
Song Siyao remained calm and picked up another vegetable for himself.
Seeing that his father refused to listen, Xu Xingluo sighed deeply.
His father is so stingy!
He just wanted to know how his father and mother went on a date, but his father refused to reveal any details. He only said that his mother agreed to his father's confession and the two of them went to watch the fireworks together.
He is not a child anymore, what’s the harm in telling him a little!
Xu Xingluo angrily stuck his chopsticks into the rice, as if he had a grudge against the rice in the bowl.
Song Siyao glanced at Xu Xingluo silently.
After taking several big mouthfuls of rice, the boy's brows gradually relaxed.
After a while, Xu Xingluo suddenly laughed out loud.
Song Siyao: "...What's wrong with you?"
Xu Xingluo was stunned for a moment: "Oh...it's nothing! I'm just a little happy to think that you are finally my legitimate father!"
Song Siyao: “…”
"Even if I'm not with your mother," Song Siyao said, "I'm your father, and that's justified."
Xu Xingluo: "I know! What I mean is... Dad, you finally don't have to stay alone in the empty house anymore!"
Song Siyao: “…”
The man picked up a chicken wing and threw it into the boy's bowl.
Song Siyao: "Eat more and talk less."
Xu Xingluo said "Oh" and stuffed the chicken wings into his mouth.
After finishing his chicken wings, Xu Xingluo raised his head and said, "By the way, Dad, did my mom say she's going back to the city in the third year of junior high school?"
Song Siyao: “Yeah.”
Xu Xingluo: "When will she come to our place?"
Song Siyao: "I don't know."
Xu Xingluo: "Dad, why don't you ask my mom? Just tell her that you miss her and want her to come over soon!"
Song Siyao: "Your mother just came back from a long trip, let her rest for a few more days first."
Xu Xingluo blinked his eyes: "Oh... that makes sense! Dad, you are more thoughtful!"
…
Five minutes later, Xu Yingxi, who was having lunch in the restaurant, received a message.
Song Siyao: [What are you doing? ]
Song Siyao: [Xu Xingluo said he missed you very much and asked when you could come to visit him at home.]
.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Yingxi and her family packed their luggage from the resort and returned home.
On the fourth day of the New Year, Xu Yingxi and Song Siyao made an appointment to go to his place.
I heard that Xu Xingluo started preparing early in the morning and was determined to make the brown sugar rice cake even more delicious than last time to impress Xu Yingxi.
It is also said that Xu Xingluo has recently gained greater confidence in his baking skills. This time, in addition to rice cakes, he has researched several new desserts and wants to make them for her to taste.
After hearing the news, Xu Yingxi rejected Song Siyao's suggestion to drive over to pick her up, saying that she could just take a taxi.
Xu Yingxi: [You'd better keep an eye on Xu Xingluo. Don't let him blow up the kitchen while you're away.]
She took a taxi to Song Siyao's house, and it was Song Siyao himself who opened the door for her.
Xu Yingxi took off her hat and it was immediately taken over by the man.
She glanced at him.
Song Siyao: "What?"
Xu Yingxi: "It just suddenly occurred to me that you, Senior Brother, are much more perceptive now than before."
I remember that when she handed him a pen, he would hesitate for a long time before taking it, causing her pen to fall to the ground and break.
Song Siyao's eyes moved slightly, probably recalling the previous situation.
After a moment, he looked at her and smiled: "Now I'm your boyfriend, of course I have to do better than before."
Xu Yingxi felt inexplicably uncomfortable being stared at by him and cleared her throat: "Where's Xu Xingluo?"
In the past, except for the time when the boy had a fever, Xu Xingluo would be the first to greet her every time she came home.
Song Siyao: "He had some problems in the kitchen and is urgently trying to fix it."
Xu Yingxi: "...Why don't you go and take a look?"
Song Siyao: "I checked it before you came, it's nothing serious."
Looking at the man's calm expression, Xu Yingxi nodded half-believingly.
After all, Xu Xingluo is his biological son. If he said he was fine... he must be fine.
Taking off her coat, Xu Yingxi came to the living room.
Xu Xingluo's voice came from the kitchen: "Mom, you're here! Wait a moment, I'll be there soon!"
Xu Yingxi responded and walked around the living room casually.
There wasn't much difference from the last time she came, but there was a big character "Fu" on the wall of the living room, window grilles were pasted on the windows, and a few small lanterns were hung on the door.
Considering that Song Siyao said that he had no habit of celebrating the Spring Festival in previous years, it is conceivable that all these must have been arranged by Xu Xingluo.
Just as I was thinking about it, Xu Xingluo came out of the kitchen: "Mom, I'm here!"
Xu Yingxi looked in the direction of the voice and saw the boy coming over with a baking tray full of cookies.
Xu Xingluo placed the cookies on the dining table and boasted to his mother, "Look, Mom! I made your favorite cookies!"
Xu Yingxi: "It looks pretty good."
She reached out and picked up a cookie.
It looks pretty good, both sides are golden and not burnt.
Just when I was about to say a few compliments, I saw the boy next to me looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Xu Yingxi: "What's wrong?"
Xu Xingluo: “…”
Xu Yingxi frowned: "Hmm?"
"Mom." Xu Xingluo blinked, his expression cautious yet with a hint of anticipation, "Do you want... to let my dad feed you?"
In the TV dramas he watched with his mother before, the male protagonist would feed the female protagonist.
Now that his parents are officially boyfriend and girlfriend, no matter how you think about it, they should be closer than before, right?
Xu Yingxi: “?”
She ignored her burning earlobes and took a deep breath: "Xu Xingluo, I have my own hands!"
Xu Xingluo was suppressed by Xu Yingxi's aura and stood up straight in an instant: "Oh!"
Xu Yingxi glared at Song Siyao again: "Did you teach this?"
Song Siyao coughed lightly.
Seeing his father being wrongly accused, Xu Xingluo quickly waved his hands: "No, no! It's really not true!"
Xu Yingxi glanced at the boy.
She could still tell whether Xu Xingluo was lying or not. This guy was too bad at lying, and he definitely wasn't lying from the look on his face.
But no matter what, Song Siyao, as the father, cannot escape blame!
Thinking of this, Xu Yingxi glared at Song Siyao fiercely again.
Song Siyao: “…”
"Isn't there something else baking in the kitchen?" Song Siyao said to Xu Xingluo, "Why don't you go and take a look?"
Xu Xingluo: "Oh...oh! Okay!"
The boy took a second to understand what his father meant and quickly agreed: "I'll go now!"
Xu Xingluo's figure disappeared at the kitchen door.
Xu Yingxi's cheeks were burning hot, and she lowered her voice to accuse him, "Song Siyao, why do you tell your son everything?"
He wouldn't have told Xu Xingluo all the details of their date that night, right?
Song Siyao was helpless: "No, I didn't tell anyone about feeding you rice cakes."
Xu Yingxi: "Then why did he suddenly ask you to feed me?"
Song Siyao: "It must be a coincidence."
Xu Yingxi: “…”
She pursed her lips and tried to calm down.
It is indeed not a niche thing for couples to feed each other. Perhaps Xu Xingluo was just doing it on a whim.
Xu Yingxi: "Anyway...anyway, you are the one with the problem!"
The girl's lips opened and closed, convicting him.
Song Siyao lowered his eyes: "Well, it's my fault for not telling you clearly earlier."
Xu Yingxi: "Then you are responsible for going to the kitchen to call your son back."
Song Siyao: "Okay."
Even so, the man did not move.
Xu Yingxi: "You go."
Song Siyao said "hmm".
Hearing his agreement, Xu Yingxi let out a breath and calmed her breathing.
Suddenly, my vision went dark and someone pecked my lips lightly.
Xu Yingxi opened her eyes wide, her heart almost jumping out of her chest.
What the hell is this man doing!
