nChapter 235 So Affectionate

nLuo Xiaoxi whispered in the heart: Su Yicheng not only could cook but also pick out vegetables?

nSu Yicheng had already picked a piece of celery to the stall owner. The old auntie had extended four fingers after weighing. “Keep the few cents.”

nThe result was that Su Yicheng handed over a large bill and didn’t ask the old auntie to keep the change.

nAfter leaving the vegetable stall, Luo Xiaoxi was very excited. “I used to buy food with my mother, generally a few cents will be collected by them because there isn’t much profit in selling a piece of vegetable, but the old auntie actually took the initiative to give you a small amount of discount.”

nSu Yicheng raised his eyebrows. “Is it strange?”

n“It’s too weird!” Luo Xiaoxi looked at Su Yicheng. “And you dress so glamorously, you must be an outer visitor, logically, the stall owners should ask for more money!”

n“You’re looking at the wrong spot.” Su Yicheng lifted Luo Xiaoxi’s chin and gestured her to see his face. “Look here, can you explain everything now?”

n“…”

nLuo Xiaoxi tried hard to conceal but finally did not hold back her laughter.

nPassing through the fish stall, Su Yicheng picked a small squid and asked the stall owner to help prepare a crucian. Luo Xiaoxi didn’t know what he was going to do but could only accompany him.

n“Wow, so handsome!”

nUnknown cry of young girls, and Luo Xiaoxi didn’t have to guess that they meant Su Yicheng. She decisively pulled his hand by urging, “Buy what? Hurry up and go home!”

nAlthough nothing would happen, thinking of someone staring at Su Yicheng with silent saliva, she still felt unhappy.

nSu Yicheng was indifferent. “Why in a hurry? It’s still early.”

n“You are not anxious, but I am in a hurry!”

nLuo Xiaoxi unreasonably pulled Su Yicheng to accelerate the pace. She should not let him come to a place with many people!

nLeaving the grocery market, two people carried all kinds of groceries. With fish, meat, egg and vegetables, Luo Xiaoxi suddenly felt satisfied.

nThey bought simply vegetables and the environment was bad in the market, but she was happier than buying a limited-edition bag from a department store.

nThe setting sun hid its light. Luo Xiaoxi and Su Yicheng walked side by side on the old street, talking and laughing, as if they could continue walking this way. The outside shackles and all kinds of sounds could not be passed to their ears.

nBack to the place where they lived, Luo Xiaoxi changed her clothes and took the initiative to give a hand.

nSu Yicheng looked at her, full of doubts. “Can you?”

nLuo Xiaoxi rolled up her sleeves. “I have been professionally helped Jianan for several years. Do you think if I can?”

nSu Yicheng still did not believe it and handed the celery to Luo Xiaoxi. Seeing her seriously washing and cutting, he reluctantly believed her and began to make crucian soup.

nThe fresh crucian was caught in the early morning and when fried, it sent out a strong aroma. Given water to boil it, the soup soon became milky white.

nLuo Xiaoxi always hated doing things slowly, so she quickly washed and cut vegetables. Su Yicheng worried that she might hurt herself, told her to slow down, but she deliberately cut faster. “Let you see my cutting skill!”

nBut soon she was having a hard time with the squid—she couldn’t cut the fish in a good-looking way.

n“Su Yicheng,” She had to ask the chef for help, “How to do this?”

nSu Yicheng turned down the fire that was boiling the fish soup, washed hands and came over. “I’ll teach you.”

n“Oh.”

nLuo Xiaoxi thought that Su Yicheng would guide her from the side, but he was behind her.

nHe was close to her with his belly to her back.

nHis slender and powerful arm moved past her waist, stretched over to cover her hand, and took the knife together with her hand. For a moment, his body temperature seemed to burn Luo Xiaoxi.

nLuo Xiaoxi’s breath suddenly stagnated.

n“Don’t be distracted.” Su Yicheng’s words sounded in her ears as if he had a magical voice. “Be careful with your hands.”

nLuo Xiaoxi calmed down and reluctantly pulled back her thoughts. Su Yicheng had already grasped her hand and started to cut the squid. He said, “You must cut like this, and the squid will become a roll.”

n“…”

nWhy did she feel a little hot?

nLuo Xiaoxi swallowed and nodded in agreement. She dared not say any more, afraid Su Yicheng would hear her abnormal voice.

nShe didn’t notice that Su Yicheng had raised his lips, and that smirk clearly showed that he was pleased.

nThe last dish was ready. Night fell from the sky, the old town was lighted up, and the scenic area seemed to be lively, but there was a kind of feeling of isolation in the small courtyard.

nLuo Xiaoxi casually rose her head, and the night sky on top of her head was actually starry.

nBeing stuck in the concrete jungle for too long, she almost forgot when she saw so many stars last time.

nLuo Xiaoxi smiled. “Su Yicheng, your assistant can really get full marks.” He was efficient and could do everything properly.

nSu Yicheng put down the fish soup and said, “I’ll give him a pay rise next month.”

nLuo Xiaoxi tut-tutted. “Really generous!”

n“He deserves it!” Su Yicheng pretended to be helpless. “Because he could suck up to the future wife of the boss so well.”

nLuo Xiaoxi initially helping herself with the fish soup. She stopped for a while after hearing that. Suddenly, she reacted and coyly said, “I now do not want to be Cheng An’s proprietress!”

nSu Yicheng picked up his eyebrows. “So I am talking about the ‘future’ proprietress.”

nThe implication was that she wouldn’t eventually escape from his hand.

n“…” Luo Xiaoxi was speechless and could only sit down to eat.

nCrucian soup, celery fried squid, and boiled cabbage were all common home-cooked dishes. They weren’t delicate in the black clay plates. While eating and seeing the sky stars, thinking that no one would disturb them, Luo Xiaoxi suddenly thought: How good it would be if she could spend the future days with Su Yicheng?

nBut because of their status, they were bound to be impossible.

nThe mobile phone in Su Yicheng’s pocket vibrated one time, and he took it out to see that it was a text message from Lu Boyan, with only two words—

n—Zhang Mei?

n“I have some work to attend to. l’ll make a call.” Su Yicheng got up.

nLuo Xiaoxi did not suspect a thing. “Oh,” she added, “Hurry up, we have to go out after eating.”

nSu Yicheng nodded with a smile and disappeared behind the door of the bedroom.

nHe dialed Lu Boyan’s number and directly asked, “The person who posted the post is Zhang Mei.”

nHis tone was enough to show that he was not surprised at all. Even, he had expected it.

nLu Boyan was not surprised and asked, “How to deal with it? You can’t take Xiaoxi to hide in the ancient town for a lifetime.”

n“Don’t let Xiaoxi know that Zhang Mei posted it.”

n“…” Lu Boyan expressed his doubts with silence.

n“The matter is very complicated. I can’t explain it to you at the moment.” Su Yicheng pressed the temple. “Can you handle the matter before we go back?”

n“You’d better worry about how to explain it to Xiaoxi.”

nWhen the voice just fell, Lu Boyan hung the phone, and Su Yicheng delayed to put away the mobile phone. Luo Xiaoxi’s voice came from the yard.

n“Su Yicheng, are you OK?”

nHe pushed the door and raised his smile. “Okay.” When he was seated, he picked up a large piece of fish for Luo Xiaoxi. “Eat more.”

nAfter dinner, Luo Xiaoxi said she was too full and did not want to move as an excuse to let Su Yicheng do the dishes.

nSu Yicheng rarely didn’t argue with Luo Xiaoxi and stroked Luo Xiaoxi’s forehead, his movements full of affection. “Pig.”

nThen he walked over to the kitchen with the plates.

nLuo Xiaoxi caught up with Su Yicheng, kicked his knee from behind. “You are a pig!”

nThe two laughed and went out to the river, center of the ancient town.

nThere were night tours.

nAccording to recommendations, this river had passed through several major attractions in the ancient town. After a boat trip, you could enjoy the night view of several major attractions. The houses in the ancient town were low-rise buildings with a wide view. It was also a wonderful thing to lie and watch the stars on board.

nThe touring was clearly very popular, with several boats passing across the river from time to time.

nLuo Xiaoxi excitedly pulled Su Yicheng’s hand. “We could also go to rent a boat.”

nWith different sizes and prices, Su Yicheng chose a two-person boat with refreshments on board, all of which were local specialties.

nBoatmen in coarse clothes operated at the head of the boat, and Su Yicheng and Luo Xiaoxi were in the stern. The cany chair was not comfortable, so Luo Xiaoxi just leaned on Su Yicheng, saw lights on both sides of the river or the stars on top of her head. The cool night wind slowly blew, taking Su Yicheng’s body scent into Luo Xiaoxi’s breathing.

nThis was the most beautiful night of her life.

nLuo Xiaoxi’s character was never static. It didn’t take long for her to sit up and start to pick up the snacks on the coffee table. But regardless of the taste, she only took a small bite and fed the rest to Su Yicheng.

nIn the beginning, Su Yicheng took this as a flirt. After a while, he found that Luo Xiaoxi saw him as a trash can.

nHe was frowning with dissatisfaction. “One bite every time. Are your animal sign a mouse?”

n“I’m afraid of gaining weight!” Luo Xiaoxi said seriously, “The finals will soon come, if I gain weight at this time, they’ll think I’m so unprofessional and Candy won’t let me off!”

nSu Yicheng encircled her waist to hug her. “You are not afraid of me not letting you off?”

nLuo Xiaoxi looked indifferent, smiled, and saw Su Yicheng’s lips getting closer and closer. She gave him a piece of cake and smiled. “Is it delicious?”

nSu Yicheng bit his teeth and put Luo Xiaoxi’s fingers into his mouth as well.

nLuo Xiaoxi was surprised, only felt that a current passed through her fingertips to her heart and spread to the limbs. She almost melted.

nSuddenly, Su Yicheng had buckled her waist and kissed on her lips.

n“Yum!”

nLuo Xiaoxi subconsciously held Su Yicheng, bearing his hegemony and gentle kiss.

nThe boat was still swaying on the river, and the two figures were hidden in the dark faint light, with a kind of unspeakable beauty.

n“Xiaoxi…”

nLuo Xiaoxi first heard Su Yicheng calling her in such a deep but tender voice.

nShe didn’t know what to say, so she responded.

nAt this moment, the stars on top of her head seemed to really twinkle so brightly, and the lights on both sides seemed suddenly blurry.

nBut it didn’t matter, because she was willing to indulge and sink with Su Yicheng…

n
