Big business guy wants to chase me

Chapter 1144 Help me taste it first, is it still hot?
In the evening, a table of people gathered together, and Zu Qinyao said with emotion: "Since my grandfather passed away, it has been so many years since I have had a lively New Year!"

Xi Jincheng frowned, looked up at him, then turned to look at Shu Ran.

Shu Ran lowered her head, filled Mu Chen with soup, and asked him in a low voice if he wanted duck meat.

He couldn't see the emotion on Shu Ran's face at the moment, and wondered if she thought of her mother because of Zu Qinyao's words.

Mu Chen didn't understand why his father suddenly looked at his mother without a moment's notice, and he didn't dare to answer that he wanted to eat duck for a long time.

Shu Ran still picked up a piece of duck leg for him, put the bowl in front of Mu Chen, and smiled slightly: "Eat it! Didn't you keep shouting delicious in the afternoon?"

Mu Chen said "Oh", then looked at Xi Jincheng timidly.

"Father, do you also want to eat duck meat? Would you like your mother to add a piece too?" Mu Chen asked cautiously.

Mu Chen's words made everyone's attention focus on Xi Jincheng, so Xi Jincheng calmed down.

Nodding, he handed the bowl to Shu Ran as if nothing had happened, and said, "Give me a bowl of soup too, I don't want meat!"

Shu Ran took it, smiled at him, and said, "I tasted it, it tastes very good, how do you do it?"

"Ask Chef Fang." Xi Jincheng rested his chin with one hand, quietly watching her pour soup into his bowl.

"Can you make calls?" Shu Ran asked in surprise.

"I ran two hundred kilometers away, found a public phone, and paid two yuan."

Xi Jincheng answered fluently, lied without blinking his eyes, and remained calm without changing his expression.

Shi Yuyan raised his eyelids and pursed his thin lips into a smile that was not a smile.

On the other hand, Zu Qinyao and Li Huanghuang sprayed soup, and the other coughed from choking.

Even Shu Muran couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth, and finally picked up a bowl of grilled rice to hide his emotions.

Seeing the reactions of the other people, Shu Ran knew that Xi Jincheng was teasing her.

He put half a bowl of soup in front of him, without exposing his smile: "Drink it! You must be exhausted from running so much. This duck soup is hard to come by. Drink more duck soup to make up for it." It’s not in vain for you to go so far to ask for the recipe to make up your body!”

Xi Jincheng said "Yes" with peace of mind, without the slightest guilty conscience.

The indifference and coldness of the past have been removed from the eyebrows and eyes, and they appear much gentler and more refined.

Shu Ran always thought that his lips were particularly beautiful, neither thin nor thick, and when he pursed them slightly, it seemed that he was smiling faintly.

Feeling that her gaze had been on his lips for a long time, when it was so long that she herself was flushed, she hurriedly lowered her eyelids and ate to cover up her inner discomfort.

Xi Jincheng picked up the spoon and stirred it, took a sip, and brought it to her mouth: "Taste it for me first, is it still hot?"

Hearing this, Shu Ran looked sideways at him in astonishment, and didn't open her mouth for a long while without opening her mouth, nor pushed her away.

Everyone at the table wished that they could be invisible at this moment, and those who disappeared should not appear at this table, because they didn't want to watch these two people show their love so ignorantly.

Shu Ran turned her head and looked around at the others.

Everyone else withdrew their gaze from them, and looked away unanimously.

"This dish is really good!" Zu Qinyao picked up a chopstick dish for Shu Muran next to him.

"This soup is good, drink more." Zu Linyao said, and handed the spoon to Li Huahuang's mouth.

Li Huihuang glanced at her, opened his mouth and drank without thinking.

It's just that Xi Jincheng treated Shu Ran's face kindly after all, coughed dryly twice, turned his face away, and ignored him.

Xi Jincheng was not angry either, he withdrew his hand without being affected, and drank the soup by himself.

"Let's find out where the street is tomorrow. It's New Year's Eve, so it's time to take care of it." Shu Ran said to everyone when she finished her meal and put down her chopsticks.

Shu Muran's hand paused, and the bottom of his downcast eyes flashed dim.

In previous years, it was his mother who made the purchases, and he and Shu Ran followed her mother to help carry things.

This is the first year without a mother, and I don't know what kind of sadness Shu Ran felt when he mentioned New Year's Eve.

Can't help but look at Shu Ran worriedly, but Shu Ran is discussing what to cook for New Year's Eve with Zu Linyao very naturally.

After dinner, several people chatted together for a while, played for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

Mu Chen chose his uncle between Shi Yuyan and Shu Muran.

Back in the room, Shu Ran took two sets of pajamas, one for him and one for hers.

She handed him the pajamas, put her own set on the bed, turned around and looked at Xi Jincheng who was undressing, and said, "Go wash it first, I'll send Mu Chen's pajamas to him."

"Go take a shower, don't go up and down the stairs." Xi Jincheng grabbed her, threw the pajamas on the bed, said something, and walked out.

Shu Ran didn't stop her either, watching his figure quickly disappear outside the door.

Walking to the window and looking out of the window, the street lamps in the yard exude fluorescent white light, adding a soft chill to the dark night, and also covering the bamboo forest with a layer of poetry.

There are dots of stars in the sky, which seem to be very close to her, so close that you can touch them with just raising your hand.

It's just that she stretched out her hand, and it was still a bit short.

As the icy cold wind passed between her fingers, she smiled and murmured to the brightest star in the sky:
"Mom, it's Chinese New Year. This is the first New Year that I haven't spent with you. I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it. I miss you so much! I miss you so much! But don't worry, apart from thinking about you, I'm having a good time!

Xi Jincheng was very, very kind to me, caring and gentle.He brought me here out of the blue, such a person who doesn't like to be lively, but let so many people celebrate the New Year together, how could I not know his intention? "

After speaking, he sighed lightly.

Taking her to such a place where even the signal is blocked, apart from Yuan Xiang, Zhong didn't want her to know, he probably didn't want her to have an unhappy year just because she thought of her mother.

She is very grateful for his good intentions, and she has no way to repay him, let alone brush him off, and let him feel sorry for her.

When people are alive, they must constantly adapt to the changes in life and accept the passing and coming.

There is no way to change the reality, so you can only grit your teeth and adapt as soon as possible.

Otherwise, could she really follow her mother away?
That wasn't something she would do after all.

Xi Jincheng sent the pajamas back to the room, Shu Ran was taking a shower in the bathroom, the water was dripping, the door on the balcony was not closed tightly, the wind blew in, and the heating in the room was replaced by the chill.

Xi Jincheng walked over and closed the door, and turned the air conditioner to the highest level to make up for the warmth dissipated by the cold, fearing that she would be cold when she came out of the shower.

Sitting at the end of the bed, facing the bathroom door, recalling the way she pretended to be relaxed and happy in front of others.

Others don't understand, can't see through, but he is too clear.

Maybe through a door, in the sound of water, how do you know there are no tears she shed?
