Chapter 97 I Love You
Jing Chi carefully interpreted the look when Mu Jingting left. Why did he feel like he didn't believe it? Jing Chi couldn't help but reflect on himself. He spoke so seriously. Does it sound like he was joking?
Who would joke about this?
Oh, maybe for Mu Jingting, Jing Chi's synonym is the word "childish". When thinking about problems with Mr. Mu's businessman's mind, he might think that Jing Chi said this on purpose to try to persuade his rival to retreat.
After guessing Mu Jingting's thoughts, Jing Chi was immediately surrounded by a strong sense of frustration and turned around and entered the house.
Ning Suyi changed her clothes, a whole set of light gray home clothes, a short T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T
Jing Chi was standing in the living room like a wooden pile, and the breath emitted by her whole body was really hard to ignore. Ning Suyi stepped on the last step and looked at him in a daze: "Didn't he say that he has prepared a midnight snack and went to your house to have a meal?"
"Wait a minute." Jing Chi hugged his arms with both hands and leaned sideways beside the armrest of the sofa. "Can you tell me first, why did Mu Jingting send you back? Uncle Xu? Didn't you bring the driver before leaving? No matter how bad you are, you can call my boyfriend to pick you up."
It’s not Mu Jingting’s turn!
"We met at the cocktail party. It was raining after the end. I asked Uncle Xu to take Liang Sui home. I called you to answer the words, and I would like to make more trouble when I answered them." Ning Suyi touched her stomach, "I'm so hungry, I haven't had supper, and I've been busy until now."
Jing Chi lost the momentum of interrogation for a second, grabbed her hand and took her downstairs for midnight snacks.
Sure enough, he stewed her the soup again. Tonight it was a bottle of bone soup. The soup was milky white, rich, but not greasy, and steamed dumplings filled with corn and pork. Ning Suyi felt even more hungry just by taking a look.
Without saying a word, she drank a bowl of hot soup first. She recovered from hunger before chewing and slowly tackling the steamed dumplings.
Jing Chi had dinner and had no appetite. After only a few moves, he was put aside and stared at her: "Why don't you have supper?"
"I'm busy, I don't have time to eat."
"No matter how busy you are in the future, don't stop eating supper. If you are hungry for a long time, you will be bad for your stomach. Also, is Mu Jingting still chasing you?"
Ning Suyi was choked by him suddenly changing the subject. She turned her face away and lowered her head to cough. This time she was really choking, and her face was so white that her face turned red.
Jing Chi threw down the spoon and went around to the opposite side to pat her back and slapped her back, with a full of self-blame on her face, and said stutteringly: "I didn't say anything terrifying, why are you so scared that you choked like this? You don't know how to pay attention to your meal..."
After a while, Ning Suyi finally let go, leaned on the back of the chair, looked up at the culprit standing beside him: "Are you jealous again?"
"Shouldn't I be jealous?" Jing Chi sat on the chair next to her, turned his head to look out the floor-to-ceiling window, and pointed the back of his head at her, "No matter how long it has been, it will not change the fact that he is your first pick."
Ning Suyi felt helpless. The woman Ye Fanshuang killed her and told her not to talk nonsense. She insisted on telling Jing Chi, but now it has become a heart-wrenching problem for him.
She felt that she could not coax him well.
"I just had a random idea, and didn't agree to Brother Jing Ting's confession?" Ning Suyi explained patiently, "He happened to express his affection for me at that time. I think he was a person he met since childhood, which is more suitable. I didn't like him."
For some reason, she had the illusion that she became darker and darker as she drew.
Sure enough, Jing Chi was petty and said stingy: "But you never said you like me, so it's hard to guarantee that I'm not another 'suit' option."
As soon as he said that, Jing Chi regretted it.
He was too irrational. He agreed to control the rhythm and take it slowly, but why did he lose his grace when he met Mu Jingting?
Jing Chi took a breath and took the initiative to apologize: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that, I didn't blame you..."
Ning Suyi put down the spoon, turned her body slightly, hugged his shoulders, leaned her face against his shoulders, and said softly: "I like you, Jing Chi. Don't be unconfident."
After pausing, she said again: "Maybe, I like you, not as deep as you like me, but I know very well that I am not using you as an alternative."
It seems that several seconds have passed, or more than ten seconds? Jing Chi was not sure. The words she said, "I like you" echoed in her ears over and over again.
A positive confession that I thought I had to wait for a long time turned out to be within my reach.
The heart hit the chest hard, and every time it was about to jump out, Jing Chi's throat was tight and the feeling of soreness in his eyes came out again.
He was so annoyed that he wanted to cry, but he was so unpromising.
Jing Chi lowered her head and rubbed her shameful "evidence" with the fabric of her T-shirt. She slowed down her breathing and changed to a calm tone: "I understand, you like me." She patted her back with her hand and reminded her, "If you don't drink the soup, it will be cold."
Ning Suyi let go of him, her eyes flashed over his face, and she was slightly stunned. She went up to look at him, and was pushed away by Jing Chi's chin, and urged him again: "Eat quickly."
She picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of soup, and couldn't help but secretly look at his face. It shouldn't be that she had read it wrong, and his eyes were a little red.
With a clear answer in his heart, Ning Suyi's eyes no longer stayed on his face. He looked at the soup in the bowl, and then freed up a hand to touch his head, and sighed slightly: "I haven't noticed before, you are so crying."
"I don't……"
"Okay, just pretend not to be."
Jing Chi's irritability that had just suppressed him was instantly aroused by her words. He seemed to be setting off firecrackers in his body, and it exploded in a mess, causing him to be unable to vent his anger on his sister.
After holding it in for a long time, he threw down the sentence "I didn't cry anyway, you read it wrong", got up and went to the bathroom, picked up the cold water and poured it on his face.
After Jing Chi washed his face, cold water droplets came out from it. Ning Suyi stuffed the last steamed dumpling into her mouth, put down the chopsticks, and said that she had eaten it.
Jing Chi asked her to keep her from moving, and he would clean up.
"It's not hard to clean up the dishes." Ning Suyi didn't ask him to do it, and put it in the kitchen dishwasher without her cleaning the left and right.
Jing Chi didn't do his own thing, followed her, in and out like a little tail. Seeing her put the bowl in neatly, he leaned on the edge of the flowing table with his body slanted.
"Are you free tomorrow night?" Jing Chi asked.
"You talk about what's going on first, I may not be able to spare time." Ning Suyi turned on the faucet, pressed a pump of hand sanitizer, rubbed his hands, and looked at him sideways.
"I want to take you home for a meal."
"What?" Ning Suyi was shocked and her eyes widened.
"It's not about meeting parents!" Jing Chi knew that she would think wrongly.
Even if she was thinking about it, her reaction was too intense. He was a little dissatisfied and bounced her forehead with his fingers, controlling the force, which was very light.
"Grandma's birthday on the 21st of last month, we were in Tonghua Township. We couldn't go back to celebrate her birthday, so she just called to celebrate her birthday. In previous years, no one in the family had a shortage of a table, but this year. She felt a little regretful and decided to arrange a banquet tomorrow night so that the younger generation could come and have a family dinner. Just so happen, my third sister has been staying in Ningcheng recently."
Ning Suyi: "Since it's a family dinner, it's not appropriate for me to go there?"
"What stupid things are you saying? I'll forget it if you were not in China a few years ago. Whenever you were in Ningcheng, my grandma would call you over whenever I held a family dinner." Jing Chi smiled and said, "Even if you are not my girlfriend, your status is not lower than mine in my grandma's place."
Ning Su thought for a while and said conservatively: "I try to go there as early as possible, but... I can't guarantee that it can be on time. You may not believe that my three meetings tomorrow afternoon are all departmental meetings, which are related to changes within the company some time ago. It is very important. I am not the speaker, but I have to listen."
Jing Chi knew she agreed, but she didn't know that she worked so hard: "Why don't you go..."
Ning Suyi interrupted him: "You are right. Grandma is so kind to me. I was not able to come to celebrate her birthday last month. I was also sorry. I can still be satisfied with having a family dinner with her."
"You are so nice." Jing Chi saw her rinse the foam on her hands, grabbed her hands, gently put them in her arms, wrapped her arms around her back, and hugged her.
How could he suspect that she didn't like him? She treated him very well since she was a child.
"I was wrong." Jing Chi suddenly apologized without any head or tail.
"Um?"
Ning Suyi was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he had done wrong, so she raised her head from his arms.
"I was impulsive and told Mu Jingting about our relationship." Jing Chi said, "Although he didn't seem to believe me, he thought I was cheating."
Those who promised her would not disclose their relationship for the time being, and he blamed him for being confused and saying nothing about her.
Ning Suyi didn't say anything, Jing Chi lowered her eyes at her with a little nervousness, but didn't know whether she was angry or not. She pursed her lips and said timidly: "I really know I was wrong."
Ning Suyi finally couldn't hold it in, raised her lips and smiled, pinched the earrings on his earlobe with her fingers. Seeing him lowering his eyebrows and eyes, it was so funny: "Why are you so afraid of me? I said that you shouldn't let the elders know in a short time, and you didn't say that you wouldn't let people in your circle of friends know. It's okay."
Jing Chi never expected that there would be a double surprise tonight: "Really?"
"Um."
"Then have you told Ye Fanshuang and Zou Qianen?"
In Jing Chi's understanding, these two are her best friends. Zou Qianen has played with her since childhood, and she has a close relationship with her. Needless to say, Ye Fanshuang has maintained a good relationship with her since high school and has been of great significance to her.
"That's not." Ning Suyi smiled, "They didn't ask. I suddenly said this, how strange it was, it seemed to be showing off that I had a boyfriend."
"Are you not worth showing off these days?"
“…”
It was clearly the same age, but Ning Suyi often had a strange feeling of a generation gap between them. What's there to show off? She didn't understand.
"It's getting late, I have to get up early to go to work tomorrow, so I'll leave first." Ning Suyi realized at this time. What they said in the kitchen for a long time, it was more comfortable to sit on the sofa in the living room and chat, right?
"I'm leaving now?"
Jing Chi took a look at the time. It was past eleven o'clock and she hadn't taken off her makeup yet. She was indeed a little late to take a shower.
Ning Suyi walked out of the kitchen and turned to him and said, "I know you are not busy. Is it okay to come here to pick me up from get off work tomorrow?"
Of course, Jing Chi had no reason to refuse, so he agreed to her happily and sent her back to the 16th floor.
Even if he is only one floor apart, he will send his girlfriend home in person. This is a necessary quality when dating his girlfriend as a boyfriend.
Ask her for a good night kiss at the door, and return to his fifteenth floor with satisfaction.

These two children are really in love seriously, o(∩_∩)o haha~
It’s a good habit to say something directly, never hold it in your heart.
