Chapter 23 - twenty-three tea
Pity.
It was quite an expensive meal, she didn’t even taste the last dessert and red wine, so she was led out of the restaurant by the cold-faced Ling Yiyan involuntarily.
Chi Chuchu smacked his lips regretfully, and when he left, he remembered the name and address of the restaurant with nostalgia.
In a few days, maybe it will be possible to take the time to taste its new products, Chi Chuchu couldn’t help being distracted.
“Thinking? What?”
Out of the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of the girl’s silent and well-behaved appearance, which was completely different from the way he was eloquent in the restaurant just now.
Ling Yiyan leaned over to fasten her seat belt, and said casually, “I wasn’t very good at acting just now, but now I’m not pretending?”
Chi Chuchu blinked and looked at him innocently.
“Brother Yiyan, what do you think? It’s too much. It’s obvious that you said ‘the person we’re dating is Chi Wanwan’, so I’ll follow your train of thought. How can we call it Yan? ?”
She looked at the young man with her eyebrows bent, and a childish, sly smile appeared on her lips.
“…”
Ling Yiyan looked fixedly at the girl in front of him.
Her extremely beautiful face has clearly not changed, but her clear and bright eyes seem to have changed.
“Innocent?” He repeated the other party’s words with a dangerous tone in his tone.
“Tell me, besides me, who else do you have a boyfriend surnamed Ling?”
Maybe it was the chill of the night wind at night? It was too heavy, and even Ling Yiyan’s body became cold and cool.
When his cold fingertips touched his cheek, Chi Chuchu couldn’t help but shrank subconsciously.
Ling Yiyan pinched the girl’s jaw with gentle force, and gently lifted it up. If you look closely, you can see that there are layers of light white between his knuckles.
“Listen, good children can’t lie.”
The system shrank its neck as if it was suddenly stepped on its tail, and whimpered nervously in her mind.
[Don’t be afraid, small scene. 】The girl comforted it in a warm voice.
The system was moved with tears in her eyes.
The girl’s skin was fair and delicate, and it would be red and swollen even if it was wiped on weekdays. At this moment, only a few moments later, the chin that was pinched by Ling Yiyan was already a little red.
Chi Chuchu raised his head as if nothing had happened, and a pair of beautiful almond eyes stared at him.
“Are you jealous?” she asked.
The first time I heard it? The other party asked such a question, Ling Yiyan couldn’t help but stunned slightly. The place where the skin touched was faintly hot, and the young man subconsciously wrinkled his cold brows.
…self? Not jealous.
Is he just a little angry?
The next second she was about to open her mouth to explain, Ling Yiyan’s hand that was pinching her chin suddenly became stiff, and even her fingertips curled up imperceptibly.
I saw the girl nodded lightly, her soft face rubbed against his palm intimately and naturally, and a soft, numb feeling spread along her fingers.
“Don’t be angry, you are the only boyfriend surnamed Ling.”
Chi Chuchu’s small and delicate chin is nestled in his palm, and his warm breath is close to his fingertips when he speaks, as if vague and charming.
[But there may be more than one boyfriend with other surnames. 】
She added silently in her heart.
Ling Yiyan was a little upset? He pursed his lips frantically, the coldness on his elegant and noble face deepened, but his slender and slender fingers gradually loosened the shackles of the girl.
“What’s your relationship with Ye Qishan?” he asked in a low voice.
“Knowing each other and nodding.” Chi Chuchu replied quickly without blinking.
Ling Yiyan didn’t speak any more.
On the way to take her back to the apartment, the two people in the car kept silent in tacit understanding.
Chi Chuchu closed his eyes to rest in peace, but his heart was already busy discussing with the system.
[What’s going on, how did Ling Yiyan know about the original owner and Ye Qishan? ? 】
The system said with a bitter face: “According to the plot line of the original book, Ling Yiyan knew that this matter should be after Ling Ting? Yao formally filed for divorce from Ye Qishan. Now that the timeline doesn’t match, I can’t analyze the specific reason. .”
[Hey, you are really useless. 】 Chi Chuchu muttered with a sigh.
“…Please correct your attitude, the host, this is not the attitude of the green tea sister.”
Chi Chuchu snorted coldly and opened his mouth to the system in a cool tone.
[If it wasn’t for your plots going wrong, how could I have been approached by Ling Yiyan at this juncture? Come, and have to be forced to have another “compound ex-boyfriend”? ! 】
Originally, if it had followed the normal timeline, Ling Yiyan would have broken up with her after knowing about “Chi Chuchu cheated on her”. Later, she would also help the heroine Ling Ting and Yao to “abuse scumbags and engage in female supporting roles”. Great help.
But the result?
Ling Yiyan noticed the clues between the original owner and Ye Qishan out of nowhere, and actually tried to ask her out to inquire about the news.
If the test failed, he simply asked the showdown.
What this game is about is heart-pounding excitement, even if Chi Chuchu is stupid? Admit it!
The self-aware system: “…Okay. In order to make up for the loss of the host, we have decided to compensate you with an A-level item card.”
【Prop card? 】
Chi Chuchu became a little interested.
“That’s right, and as a fair and just ‘green tea survival system’, the item cards we provide to the host need to be drawn from the card pool by you, and the quality of it depends entirely on luck.”
“Whether it’s an African or a European, it’s all in your mind!”
The system explained to her in a gag, and at the same time, it had placed four unremarkable black cards in front of her, and graciously invited the host to draw one from them.
Chi Chuchu was silent for a while, and said with disgust: “It’s just four cards, you are too embarrassed to call yourself a ‘card pool’?”
Does she really think she has never played a card game? !
“Cough, isn’t this a special case, our temporary conditions are a bit rudimentary…” The system sneered a few times, and changed the topic with a haha.
Well, anyway, the stingy of the system? It wasn’t the first day she knew about it.
Chi Chuchu turned his gaze back to the four cards in front of her again, and after aggressively gearing up for a while, he vowed to draw out a powerful item card that was so explosive.
[It’s you, the third card of fate! 】
As soon as the words fell, the third card pointed by the girl’s finger radiated a dazzling light.
In Chi Chuchu’s long-awaited eyes, its pitch-black shell was peeled off a little bit, revealing a gorgeous shell with a golden light that blinds people’s eyes.
[Oh, I must have won the jackpot. 】Chi Chuchu thought confidently?
“Congratulations to the host, you have actually drawn a rare card in our card pool – [he is so pure and unpretentious]!”
Chi Chuchu, who wilted immediately after hearing the name of the card: She really is a non-chief, isn’t she…? ? !
The cadence of the system continued to ring in my ears: “It’s an exciting moment, now let’s reveal the usage guide for this card face!”
“[He who is so simple and unpretentious], also known as [a different boyfriend], is the only functional card in the prop card pool of our lottery draw.
The specific instructions are as follows –
For a boy as simple as xxx, he doesn’t need any mind-reading skills at all if he has anything on his mind, all of which are written in his personal space. “
After reading it, the system also cheered her up with insight: “Wow, a very practical and individual card.”
Chi Chuchu: “?”
What kind of messy card face description is this? ? ?
Seeing the obvious disgust on the host’s face, the system quickly and dutifully explained to her—
“This is a functional card that can be used on any male character in the original book. When you decide who you want to be, you can write any question you want on the card with a pen, and it should be asked in five minutes. If you use the object, you will reply in the way of ‘posting news’ in the circle of friends.”
!
I see?.
Chi Chuchu sighed with sincerity and sincerity: “You’ve finally been reliable. The item card sounds amazing.”
The system puffed out its chest, just about to accept the host’s compliment proudly, but in the next second, Chi Chuchu seemed to have suddenly discovered a blind spot, and a hesitant tone slowly sounded in his mind.
“Wait a minute. Is the content of the Moments posted by the object of the item card only visible to me?”
“…”
The sudden silence of the system seemed to indicate something.
Chi Chuchu’s eyes widened in disbelief: “Is this still visible to everyone?!”
The system grieved and pointed the right finger, trying to defend himself? “Bi, after all, this card is just an A-rank item, and it can’t be as perfect as an S-rank item card? It’s perfect.”
Chi Chuchu couldn’t help but think hard: “Forget it, I take back what I just praised you.”
system:”!”
Chi Chuchu, who felt deceived, didn’t forget to add: “Tsk, as expected, it’s still as stingy as ever.”
Xizi held the heart-wounding system: “!!”
Not knowing how rich and exciting the little theater in the girl’s brain is, Ling Yiyan raised the temperature of the car air conditioner without saying a word after seeing her sleeping softly against the car mat.
He didn’t laugh at himself until after the subconscious action was finished.
It is obvious that he intends to come to Xingshi to ask his guilt.
What the **** is he doing tonight?
The high-end apartment where Chi Chuchu lived did not allow unregistered vehicles to enter. After the car was parked at the gate of her community, Ling Yiyan cautiously reached out and patted her shoulder, trying to wake the sleeping girl.
In fact, Chi Chuchu, who hadn’t slept at all: I’m still tired after get off work. I want to act.
“…Well, I’m home?”
The sleepy-eyed girl woke up from her daze, and her ignorant apricot eyes were still filled with a layer of water vapor, and she looked innocent and innocent.
“Here, go back and rest.”
Ling Yiyan lowered her eyes quietly, unwilling to look at her again.
So far, whether Chi Chuchu has the same personality as he looks on the surface, he already knows it well, after all, there are not many people in this world who can give themselves a cuckold.
Even though he was full of anger in his heart, he wanted to let the other party get the lesson she deserved.
but…
“Let’s change the restaurant on your next date. I want to try something else once in a while.”
After getting off the car, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, the girl who was clinging to the window of her passenger car was looking at him with a smile like a flower, and her tone was full of ridicule and teasing.
“Don’t be jealous in the future, boyfriend.”
The last three words tickled and fell on the tip of his heart, creating a layer of shallow floating ripples. Ling Yiyan’s elegant face moved slightly, and a sense of dryness rose in his heart for no reason.
Gee.
The little **** is so arrogant, he thought?
When walking back to the apartment with joyful steps, Chi Chuchu was still chatting with the system.
System: “Ling Yiyan just dismissed it like this? Explain, clarify, don’t you want Ye Qishan’s matter? Is there a way to get past it?”
【Do you think Ling Yiyan is a fool? The original owner was about to split his legs into octopuses. At this time, the explanation was like a thief with a guilty conscience. 】
The system hesitated: “But he is the heroine’s older brother, in case there is any change in the plot…”
[I often walk by the river, how can I not get wet shoes. 】Chi Chuchu hated that iron could not become steel.
[Besides, he must have some relevant evidence to do so? Ask me about my relationship with Ye Qishan. Since this is the case, it is better to let it go with the flow, so that I can maintain my green tea sister image of “tea and self-knowledge”. 】
After hearing the words “maintaining the image”, the system finally turned back to her without a spine.
“You’re right, the green tea female supporting role is to let people not collapse, and one tea to the end.”
In the horizontal and vertical plot lines, Yan An, who should have broken up, was not divided, and there was no need for him to care about so many details.
As long as these people can finally know clearly that Chi Chuchu is a green tea female supporting role who calls someone to fight, it is enough to stand firmly in the heroine camp and unite with Ling Ting Yao.
The system hugged itself humbly, thinking shiveringly.
Shouldn’t there be an accident? After all, Chi Chuchu looks like a **** now, and I can’t have tea anymore!
After conscientiously reviewing it in his heart, although there is always a strange feeling that he can’t tell the truth, the overall performance of the host is quite outstanding, and it can be called a model of tea art masters!
The system calmed down: It’s okay, it’s stable.
There were endless buzzing noises in his head, and Chi Chuchu, who was so annoyed that he couldn’t bear it, immediately used the “shield” function.
What is the little head of the system thinking about all day long? As the host, Chi Chuchu has no interest in thinking about it? You know.
After all, she’s busy all day long? Enough is enough—
In the daytime, she has to work **** the crew, and she has to be prepared to coax Yan An, her ancestor; at night, it is rare to end the filming early, only to be disrupted by Ling Yiyan’s sudden phone call.
After a tiring day, Chi Chuchu returned to the apartment and the first thing to do was to go straight to the bathroom to take a shower.
The girl, who was so sleepy and dizzy at the moment, didn’t notice that in the trash can she emptied when she went out during the day, several empty potato chips bags were lying brightly inside.
Extremely conspicuous.
After dawdling and washing for about an hour, Chi Chuchu slowly paced out of the bathroom with satisfaction.
She was wearing a simple white nightdress, and her long soft hair that had not been dried was still dripping with water, and the girl took a dry towel from the shelf and wiped it. After wiping, he couldn’t wait to run to his room.
Phew, I can finally sleep!
Chi Chuchu thought with anticipation?
The girl who had just finished showering still had wet water vapor on her body, mixed with the sweet and strong aroma of apricot blossoms in her hair, suddenly adding some soft warmth to the originally silent room.
Until Chi Chuchu finally got into her fragrant quilt, when she was about to sleep in the darkness, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the bulging human-shaped objects in the quilt, which made her smile instantly freeze on her face and gradually solidified. .
“…?!!!”
Sleep, slot.
Awakened by a series of movements of the girl entering the door, Jane muttered something, and then slowly got out of the bed.
From Chi Chuchu’s current point of view, at this moment, Jian Shi is no longer the normal **** who is giggling and laughing. The slightly upturned messy black hair just woke up makes him look more alive. .
A hazy drowsiness appeared in the young man’s amorous peach blossom eyes.
After seeing Chi Chuchu coming back, he also had a habitual attitude, and there was a sense of indifference in his lazy magnetic voice—
“Where have you been? Come back so late.”
Reaching out his hand and grabbing the **** the other side of the bed, Jian Shi’s fluffy head rubbed against the crevice of her neck, with a childish innocence in her tone.
“Who are you dating again? Yan An, Ye Qishan?”
Chi Chuchu froze his face and did not speak.
“Oh.” Jian Shi’s amorous peach eyes narrowed, and she concluded in a positive tone, “It’s Ling Yiyan.”
“…” Where the **** are you a prophet? !
Chi Chuchu was shocked.
No, that’s not the point now!
She slapped it away in a hurry? Jian Shi’s restless hand asked him angrily, “What’s the situation, why did you come to me today?”
And still? Lying on her bed, in her quilt!
Chi Chuchu tried his best to calm down his mood, and tried desperately to warn himself that he couldn’t show a surprised and puzzled expression. After all, judging from the unusual movements of this fellow Jian Shi, it is definitely not the first time that he has done this kind of thing.
…she wants to calm down.
“There was a banquet at home? It was so boring that I ran away.”
Jian Shi took the dry hair towel from the girl’s hand, and helped her to wipe the water droplets from the tips of her hair naturally. The cynical appearance in the past was a little more serious and gentle.
The movements of his hands did not stop, and the young man’s face still did not forget to tease her with a smile.
“Angry? I’m not welcome to come and play with you?”
A few “#” characters popped out of Chi Chuchu’s forehead, and he bluntly said to him, “What do you think?”
She was so sleepy that she could barely open her eyes.
In the room, the constant temperature air conditioner was turned on, and Jane was wearing a simple and loose white T-shirt. The young man’s thin and strong white arms were frivolously wrapped around her back, and he gently patted the girl’s back.
“Wait a little longer, dry your hair before going to sleep, or you will catch a cold.”
He was surprisingly caring at this moment.
Jian Shi wiped her hair with neither light nor heavy force, and her meticulous and considerate movements were naturally natural. Even his peach blossom eyes, which had never been serious, seemed to be stained with a little tenderness, reflecting the girl’s reflection.
The rustling sound continued for a long time until Jian Shi finally slowly put down the towel in his hand.
“Okay, let’s sleep,” he said with a chuckle.
After hesitating for a moment, Chi Chuchu couldn’t stop the drowsiness.
After vigilantly wrapping herself with the quilt, the girl was satisfied and relieved her guard.
Turning over and leaving a ruthless back to Jane Shi, Chi Chuchu was finally able to close his eyes with peace of mind, and let the meeting go with the Zhou Convention.
But before she completely lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep, the girl suddenly thought of a frightening question—
Wait a moment.
Since Jian Shi was able to enter her house so struttingly? How many boyfriends did the original owner enter the fingerprint locks of the apartment for her? !
The author has something to say: digression: Jane sleeps very well!
