Chapter 8
Shen Dai also felt that she was quite naive, knowing that Lu Chi never took those two months to heart, why was she still thinking wildly?
He took it lightly when they broke up back then, but now that Lu Chi has become the prince of a big group, would he care about how she introduces him to her boyfriend?
After deleting the text message with Lu Chi, Shen Dai was not in the mood to take a nap and sat on the bed playing computer.

Xu Xing called before Xu Xing came to pick her up in the evening, because she was going to have a big meal at the hotel tonight, Shen Dai put on light makeup and chose a light purple off-the-shoulder mid-length dress from the closet to change into.This skirt was made by Shen Dai herself. The style is simple and elegant. When the evening wind blows in, the hem of the skirt flutters with the wind. It is as soft as water waves, with a fairy air.

The neck was bald, Shen Dai opened the jewelry box and picked out the pearl necklace that Xu Xing gave her.

After getting dressed, Shen Dai continued to look at the computer and waited for Xu Xing.

Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.

Shen Dai smiled, closed her notebook, picked up her bag, and went to look in the mirror again.When he turned around to look at his back, his heart moved, he put away his smug thoughts, walked to the door and saw Xu Xing's handsome face through the cat's eyes, the corners of his mouth curled up again.

"Why are you here today?" Stepping out of the door, Shen Dai asked briskly while locking the door.

She likes rose perfume, Xu Xing smelled the familiar fragrance, and then looked at her sweet side face, the fatigue of the whole day disappeared, "I want to see you sooner, today is so beautiful."

She was so pretty that he didn't want to take her out, he just wanted to spend a leisurely night at home with the two of them, he was not interested in big meals or movies, he just wanted to be with her.

Shen Dai took a look at her boyfriend, "If you are so good at talking, I really doubt that you are a seasoned lover."

Xu Xing smiled and stretched out his arm, Shen Dai held it skillfully, then he looked at her and said: "I will only tell the truth, you are not good-looking, and it is sweet talk when I praise you with no conscience. Think about where to eat ?"

While talking, he walked to the elevator. From the cat's eyes, he could only hear the voices of a couple talking, but no one could be seen. Soon the elevator arrived, and even the people were invisible.

Lu Chi returned to the sofa again, his chest seemed to be clogged with smoke, which could not dissipate for a long time.

In the elevator, Shen Dai turned to the hot topic on Weibo, opened Lu Chi's post, and held up her phone for Xu Xing to read, "Is that the person you saw yesterday?"

Only enlarged photos can be seen on the phone, and the man's indifferent side face is unforgettable.Xu Xing moved his eyes from the man's photo to the like icon in the lower right corner, raised his hand and clicked, and found that it was a Weibo picture, which introduced the man's identity, Dongying's new CEO.

"Have you bumped into this boss?" Xu Xing asked calmly, with only novelty in his eyes.

Before Shen Dai, he had never been in a relationship, but he entered the society many years before her, and knew how to hide certain thoughts.

"Not only did I see you, I also invited him to my house as a guest." Shen Dai smiled and deliberately said something that caused misunderstanding.

When the elevator reached the first floor, Xu Xing looked at her sly and mischievous smile, knowing that there was something inside, knowing that she must have a clear conscience, so he stopped asking.

Shen Dai took his arm and explained on her own, from Lu Chi's relationship with the Shen family, to her mother's phone call to Lu Chi.

"My mother is like this. She always treats me like a child and asks my roommates to take care of me when she sends me to school. Now that Lu Chi has just returned, she doesn't care whether Lu Chi wants to maintain the old friendship or not, so she entrusts Lu Chi to take care of me. Let my colleagues know that they will definitely gossip about me, saying that I got in by relying on Lu Chi."

Shen Dai got into the car and kept complaining.

"The two of you are very destined. Beijing is so big, and you can be neighbors." Xu Xing smiled and started the car.

"Jiahuayuan is the best neighborhood near Dongying. He is destined to enter Dongying. I would also buy a house here, but it is indeed a coincidence that my sister bought the one opposite him." Shen Dai saw that he had no doubts. What, let go of your heart.Maybe there is no need to worry, the family members don't know the secret between her and Lu Chi, and Xu Xing, even the detective, can't think of it.

"He's pretty handsome, like a star in an idol drama." Xu Xing tilted his head and gave her a meaningful look.

Shen Dai understood his teasing, and looked at him with watery peach eyes, "Why, are you afraid that I like him?"

Xu Xing was noncommittal.

As if hearing some funny joke, Shen Dai leaned on his shoulder and acted coquettishly, "Don't worry, he is cold and cold. I kept my distance from him when I was young, and now I want to keep my distance so that my colleagues won't misunderstand me. Besides, I have You, I think you are much more handsome than him, more to my liking."

She likes men who love to laugh, men who are warm and sunny. She was fascinated by Lu Chi back then, probably because she read too many love novels, and happened to have a tall and ruthless man by her side who looked like a leading man. It's not the same thing as fiction at all.Later, when she found a boyfriend again, Shen Dai completely changed her standards.

She clings to him like a cat, and the corners of Xu Xing's lips rise, "You are the sweet talker."

"Believe it or not." Shen Dai pretended to be angry, let go of his arm and leaned back on the chair, and took out her mobile phone to read.

Xu Xing smiled, holding the steering wheel with his left hand, and her hand with his right hand.

He believed her, but he was a little afraid that his dumb treasure would be snatched away.

She is so nice and has been with her for a long time, which man would not be tempted?

Eating, watching movies, the most common dating mode for metropolitan couples.

"Elsa's blue dress is so beautiful." Coming out of the movie theater, Shen Dai chatted with Xu Xing about her impressions after watching it with relish.

"You do one too." Xu Xing looked at her with a smile, and couldn't help but fantasize about her appearance in Elsa's long dress.

"Some of the clothes in the anime look beautiful, but they don't have that kind of effect when they are made." Shen Dai didn't have a whimsical idea, but returned to reality because of Xu Xing's words. Looking at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock.

Xu Xing sent her to the door of the house.

"When will you invite me in?" She opened the door, Xu Xing looked into the room, and asked in a low voice.

Shen Dai was stunned for a moment, looking at Xu Xing's tall figure, she suddenly thought of the words "solitary men and widows in the middle of the night".

She was instantly nervous, and some unsuitable images appeared in her mind.

Her eyelashes fluttered, her face was flushed, and her stiff shoulders revealed her defense against him. She hesitated because she was afraid of hurting his face by refusing to speak out.Xu Xing understands that Shen Dai likes him, but in that kind of matter, she has not fully trusted him, her boyfriend who has only been dating for more than two months.

"Just kidding, go to bed early, I'm leaving."

Gently touching her head, Xu Xing turned and walked towards the elevator.

The more considerate he was, the more guilty Shen Dai felt, she couldn't help but turned to him and said: "Tomorrow, come over to buy vegetables, and I will teach you how to cook."

The middle of the night is not suitable, Shen Dai can still accept dinner at home at seven or eight o'clock.

Xu Xing turned his head, with a surprise smile in his eyes.

Shy, Shen Dai quickly entered the door and went to the balcony.

Seeing Xu Xing got into the car, she sent out the text message that she had already typed, "Be careful on the road."

Xu Xinggang put on his seat belt, saw the text message, and replied to her: "Good night, baby."

Land Rover drove away slowly.

Shen Dai pulled the curtains, went to the bathroom to wash up, and returned to the bed after work, it was almost 11:30.

Xu Xing sent a few pictures, including sweet and sour pork ribs, deep-fried shrimp, yam in honey sauce, fried lotus root slices, etc. The two of them listed a few of their favorite foods, and Shen Dai swallowed.She searched for two more home-cooked dishes, made up nine and sent them to the Weibo account: What should I eat tomorrow night?
There are Daibao at home: I want to eat them all.

In the opposite house, Lu Chi was still sitting in front of the computer. He received a text message and soon saw the new Weibo of "Baby is not staying".

He suddenly lost the mood to reply.

In the United States, he couldn't see her, and he couldn't imagine if he couldn't see her. Now that he saw how she got along with Xu Xing, Lu Chi's chest felt tight.

Chest tightness, naturally have to find a way to resolve it.

Imagining her smiling sweetly while holding her phone, Lu Chi searched for oversized poop and commented.

On the first day of work, Shen Dai woke up early and went out refreshed. The door was only locked when someone came out from the opposite side.

Shen Dai's heart tightened, she pulled out the key, turned around, and greeted Lu Chi calmly, "Morning."

Lu Chi glanced at her like an ordinary neighbor, lowered his eyes and locked the door, "Morning."

After Shen Dai said hello, she remembered that Lu Chi said that she was naive, and she was so embarrassed that she followed Lu Chi with drooping eyelids, waiting for the elevator together.

The atmosphere was colder than the icicles raised by Princess Elsa last night. Shen Dai took out her mobile phone and pretended that she was very busy.

Her figure was reflected in the elevator, it was too blurry, Lu Chi couldn't help but squinted his eyes.

She wore a white short-sleeve, V-neck, and lace, which was tightly attached to her body, but there was still a gap in the middle. He was condescending, and saw the snow-white skin on both sides, very little, like the tip of an iceberg.Lu Chi turned his eyes away, and really wanted to remind her to change clothes, but think about it, it's not a matter of clothes, unless she wraps her neck tightly like ancient women, with her figure, she can't avoid wearing anything light up.

The elevator is here, and there are many people inside during the morning rush hour.

Lu Chi noticed that when the elevator door opened, the eyes of the five men inside all fell on Shen Dai, and they moved away out of politeness.

Shen Dai is used to standing at the corner of the elevator, so she walked over first.

Lu Chi followed her closely and stood to her left.Originally, there could only be room for Shen Dai alone, but the middle-aged woman next to her thought that the two of them were in the same group, so she offered to make room for Lu Chi.

The elevator stopped on the first floor, and the two went to pick up the car together, because they lived next door and the parking spaces were next to each other.

Lu Chi walked fast, and when he opened the car door, he saw Shen Dai walking towards her car in high heels, and the fire that had been suppressed all night had almost subsided, and asked her across the car: "Your sister is back, how are you going?" company?"

"Take a taxi." Shen Dai replied while unlocking it, without looking at him.

Xu Xing's company is relatively close to here, but the residence is a little far away. It would be a waste of time to come around to pick her up in the morning and evening peak hours.Xu Xing said that it was just a matter of getting up an hour earlier, he was fine, but Shen Dai didn't want him to work hard, so he was not allowed to come, now that the taxi is so convenient, why bother her own people.

"I can send you off." Lu Chi was silent for three seconds, and offered to show his favor.

After hearing this, Shen Dai smiled back at him as if joking, "I appreciate Boss Lu's kindness, but I often sleep in late and I'm not used to asking you to wait for me, so it's more convenient to take a taxi."

With that said, he got into the car and closed the door.

Lu Chi is a big block of ice, the journey from the door to the garage is enough for her, how dare she take his car?
It's just asking for trouble.

After fastening the seat belt, Shen Dai drove out one step later. The black BMW was like a tangible wind, with smooth and ruthless arcs.

Lu Chi sat in the driver's seat and didn't move for a long time.

The phone rang suddenly, and Lu Chi picked it up irritably. Seeing the words "Aunt Shen", he felt better.

"Auntie, why are you calling so early?"

"Lu Chi, it's like this. Our school has an art exchange meeting with Peking University. Professor Gao's family has something to do. I replaced it this morning. I will get on the plane later and arrive in Beijing at noon. I will go to Daibao first. Take a break in the afternoon, if you are free in the evening, let's get together? You kid, you haven't heard from me for six years, you want to kill me."

"Okay, I just happened to be fine at noon, so I asked Daibao to pick you up together." Lu Chi smiled sincerely.

"No, no, no, someone will pick us up, so you don't need to bother."

"Where does Auntie want to eat tonight? I'll make a reservation first." Lu Chi looked at the rearview mirror and turned the steering wheel.

"You're tired of eating everything in the hotel. Auntie cooks for you a few home-cooked Hangzhou dishes. You haven't been back for six years. You must have thought about it?"

Lu Chi paused: "I don't think about Hangzhou cuisine, but about my aunt's craftsmanship. I have no problem, you can ask Daibao."

If Shen Dai refuses, he will take his aunt to have a big meal.
