Chapter 232: Bullied and Cried for Stealing Desserts + Loved Since the Age of Sixteen Until Now...
The sudden confession made Shen Tunan at a loss. He stared at the man in front of him in a daze, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
Gu Zhuoxun nudged him with his elbow, signaling him to stay silent.
Shen Tunan came back to his senses and pulled the corner of his mouth awkwardly: “This…I…”
He has no intention of falling in love.
That night was just an accident, it would be better for us to forget about it.
But Xu Qichen did not give him a chance to refuse, and directly took out his mobile phone and opened the WeChat business card.
"Can I add WeChat?"
He wanted Shen Tunan’s WeChat for a long time...
There used to be a Jing Yuan between them.
Now that Shen Tunan and Jing Yuan have divorced, anyone can pursue Shen Tunan, who is single again.
Looking at the QR code business card in front of him, Shen Tunan was tangled.
He could tell that the man was interested in him, but he had no interest in starting a new relationship.
what to do?
Xu Qichen noticed his hesitation and said hurriedly, "We can start by getting along as friends. If you don't have feelings for me, I won't force you."
The man in front of me was too sincere to be rejected.
Shen Tunan thought, just adding WeChat is not a confirmation of a romantic relationship.
He took out his phone and scanned the QR code.
After passing the friend verification, Shen Tunan saw a message appear in the dialog box: [Hello! My name is Xu Qichen. ]
Shen Tunan looked at these three words and felt extremely familiar.
Xu Qichen...
Xu Qichen...
Why can't I remember where I heard it?
The name wasn't very uncommon, perhaps it was similar to the name of one of his patients.
Shen Tunan didn’t dwell too much on this issue.
He replied with a message: [Shen Tunan. ]
Xu Qichen looked at these three words, his heart pounding.
He finally got Shen Tunan’s WeChat.
Is this a good start?
After adding WeChat, Xu Qichen didn't stay for long: "I'm leaving first, I'll contact you later."
Shen Tunan breathed a sigh of relief;
He was really afraid that Xu Qichen would continue to pester him.
After everyone left, Gu Zhuoxun said excitedly: "Tutu, this man is so handsome! He's quite the top-notch guy."
Shen Tunan curled his lips: “I don’t think it’s very handsome.”
Gu Zhuoxun glared: "Are your standards so high?"
Shen Tunan pursed his lips and said nothing.
He doesn't have high vision, but he has a high starting point.
Who made me meet such a handsome Jing Yuan in my first marriage?
pity……
What’s the use of Jingyuan being so handsome, after all, he’s not the one she loves.
Shen Tunan suppressed the bitterness in his heart, took Gu Zhuoxun's arm and said, "Let's go! Go home and sleep!"
"Will you text him tonight?"
Gu Zhuoxun said with a gossipy look on his face, "If you ask me, strike while the iron is hot. Talk to him first. Maybe we'll find some common topics."
Shen Tunan: “with this American time, I would rather sleep.”
Gu Zhuoxun curled his lips: "You deserve to be single."
"You're such a flirt, why are you still single?"
Shen Tunan deliberately provoked Gu Zhuoxun, and sure enough, he saw his face change.
Gu Zhuoxun shouted, "Do you think I want to be single? Haven't I found the right one yet?"
Shen Tunan reached out: “Look, you tried so hard but still couldn’t find a boyfriend.”
Gu Zhuoxun sighed: "Fate can be encountered but not sought."
Shen Tunan put his arm around his shoulders: "Let's go! Go back to your own homes and go to sleep."
The two parted in the parking lot.
Shen Tunan drove back home and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
When he came out of the shower, he found new messages on WeChat.
There was nothing special in the message sent by Xu Qichen. It was just a random photo of delicious food taken while eating.
The attractively colored rose milk balls are served on a white plate, garnished with mint leaves.
The sugar is like the falling snow in early winter, and the refreshing fragrance seems to be able to be transmitted through the screen.
Shen Tunan’s favorite is rose milk balls, and Jing Yuan always bought them for him when they first got married.
Once, he ate too much.
Toothache at night.
Jingyuan drove him to the hospital to see a dentist, and when he came back, he held him in his arms and almost didn't sleep all night.
Later, Jing Yuan never let him eat sweets again.
When Jing Yuan discovered that he was eating secretly, he bullied him and made him unable to even get out of bed.
Shen Tunan lowered his eyes, his eye circles were red.
All his memories are related to Jingyuan.
Shen Tunan turned off his phone and wrapped himself in a quilt.
Not long after, he felt his pillow was wet.
He wiped the tears from his face and secretly despised himself.
It's so useless!
Why do I still think of this person after being divorced for so long?
Shen Tunan forcefully dismissed Jing Yuan's image from his mind. He lay on the pillow and fell asleep after a long time.
Across the ocean,
Jing Yuan stared at his phone in a daze.
At this time now, Shen Tunan should be asleep.
He waited all day but still didn't receive any message.
Shen Tunan was unwilling to contact him,
Even though he left a note, he still couldn't get a chance.
Jing Yuan felt a pain in his heart, and even his eyes were burning red.
Two years,
He still couldn't forget it.
He even wanted to forcefully keep Shen Tunan by his side.
When he was sixteen, he met the twelve-year-old Shen Tunan.
At first sight, he fell in love with this clean and sunny boy.
He had just begun to understand things at that time, while Shen Tunan was just a child who had no idea what knowledge was.
He waited and waited, and finally waited until Shen Tunan became an adult.
But as an adult, Shen Tunan was not interested in falling in love, even though he had hinted at it openly or secretly. But Shen Tunan only wanted to study medicine and was immersed in the career of traditional Chinese medicine.
He began to wait for a long time again, and finally waited until Shen Tunan was twenty-two years old.
He mustered up the courage to confess, and Shen Tunan agreed at that time.
He will always remember how he felt that day when Shen Tunan said, "I'm willing to be your boyfriend."
He was so happy that he didn't sleep all night and waited for Shen Tunan at the door of his house early the next morning.
After waiting for two hours, Shen Tunan finally woke up.
He was the one who always waited and waited,
But now...
He didn't even have the chance to wait.
Jing Yuan lowered his eyes, his eye sockets burning with pain.
It took a lot of effort for him to stop himself from crying.
My heart really hurts!
Isn’t it wonderful to love someone?
How could it hurt him so much?
*
Since adding WeChat that day, Shen Tunan has always been able to receive messages from Xu Qichen.
Sometimes I remind him to pay attention to the weather and add or remove clothes in time.
Sometimes it's a quick joke.
Occasionally I would share delicious food with him.
Shen Tunan deleted it after reading it, and occasionally sent him an emoticon package.
Xu Qichen is very sensible and won't get too entangled.
Gradually, Shen Tunan felt that it was nice to have a friend with whom he could chat.
It was one night that the two of them started to talk more.
Xu Qichen posted a message on his Moments, saying that he was feeling very uncomfortable due to his rhinitis.
Out of professionalism, Shen Tunan gave him a folk remedy for rhinitis.
The topic was thus opened.
Xu Qichen would occasionally ask him some daily care knowledge, and Shen Tunan would explain it patiently.
A few days later, Xu Qichen’s rhinitis healed, and he insisted on treating Shen Tunan to a meal.
Shen Tunan didn’t really want to go, so he found an excuse and refused.
In the evening, when he got home from get off work, he saw Xu Qichen at the door of the clinic.
“Doctor Shen!”
Xu Qichen walked over with a faint smile on his face, his expression just right.
Shen Tunan pulled the corner of his mouth: “Hello!”
Xu Qichen handed him a cake bag. "Freshly baked rose milk balls. I know you like this dessert."
Shen Tunan was astonished: “How do you know?”
Xu Qichen: "I saw your circle of friends."
Shen Tunan then remembered that he had indeed posted something about rose milk balls on his Moments a few days ago.
"Sorry, my teeth are not very good and I haven't eaten sweets for a long time."
As Shen Tunan finished speaking, he saw Xu Qichen lowering his eyes with a very lost expression.
"I was rash. I'm sorry."
Xu Qichen retracted his hand and smiled naturally, but the smile seemed a little forced.
Shen Tunan felt that he was too direct.
After all, it was someone else's good intentions, he couldn't be too heartless.
"I'll go back and eat it slowly, thank you."
He took the cake box from Xu Qichen.
Xu Qichen's eyes suddenly lit up: "I won't buy you desserts anymore."
Shen Tunan thought: I won’t accept your gifts in the future.
Xu Qichen turned his wrist to check his watch. "It's time for dinner. If it's convenient for you, shall we have dinner together?"
Fearing that Shen Tunan would refuse, he hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter if you don't have time, we can have dinner together another day. I just want to thank you for helping me with my medical treatment during this time. To be honest, I have had rhinitis for a long time, and there has been no suitable treatment for it, which makes me very distressed."
Shen Tunan knew that rhinitis was very uncomfortable, and he could understand Xu Qichen's mood.
"If you ask me anything else, I really don't know. Treating rhinitis is well within my capabilities, so you don't have to worry about it."
Xu Qichen looked at him with burning eyes: "Can't we really have dinner together?"
Such a look made Shen Tunan really unable to refuse, and he finally nodded in agreement.
Xu Qichen was not looking for a high-end restaurant, but a Chinese restaurant with very stylish decoration.
He pushed the menu to Shen Tunan: “See what you want to eat?”
Shen Tunan is not very good at ordering food. He pulled the corner of his mouth: “I have never been to this place, so you should order it!”
Xu Qichen knew his preferences and ordered several dishes according to Shen Tunan’s taste.
When the dishes came up, Shen Tunan was surprised to find that he liked all of them.
He quietly looked at Xu Qichen's expression and found that he looked normal.
He must be thinking too much!
Shen Tunan suppressed the doubts in his heart and started to eat.
Xu Qichen is very talkative and can always find the right topic.
The atmosphere won't be awkward.
Shen Tunan felt that it was easy to be with Xu Qichen, and there wouldn't be too much burden in his heart.
It’s actually nice to have friends like this.
After dinner, Shen Tunan drove home.
Xu Qichen watched his car leave the parking lot before returning to the car.
He didn't start the car immediately, but sat in the chair and thought about the meal he had just had.
Xu Qichen raised the corners of his lips, feeling inexplicably happy.
The relationship between him and Shen Tunan is getting closer and closer, and it won’t be long before he can really own Shen Tunan.
There was a message in the WeChat group. After Xu Qichen opened it, he found that Qi Yan was sending the message in the small group.
Qi Yan: [@Jingyuan Jingge hasn't returned to China yet? ]
Jingyuan: [The day after tomorrow.]
Qi Yan: [The group has been quiet lately. Xu Qichen hasn't been around, where has he been?]
When Xu Qichen saw that he was called, he replied: [Just finished eating.]
Qi Yan: [What have you been busy with lately?]
Xu Qichen: [Busy with my boyfriend.]
Qi Yan: [Oh my god! You have a boyfriend?]
Xu Qichen: [My new boyfriend.]
Qi Yan: [Who is it? Bring him out so we can see him.]
Xu Qichen: [I have liked him for a long time, and finally I have the chance to be with him.]
Qi Yan: [You are doing something big in secret! ]
Jing Yuan: [Congratulations! When I get back, let's get together and bring my sister-in-law out.]
Xu Qichen's fingers wandered over the keyboard for a moment, and he typed two words: [OK!]
