Chapter 217: Chapter 216: Joyfully Sprinkling Sweet Dog Food (11) Chapter 217: Chapter 216: Joyfully Sprinkling Sweet Dog Food (11) Tang Zelin sat on the ground and with a smile, replied, “Auntie, good to see you. Are you heading up the mountain?”
Seeing Tang Zelin engage with her, the woman bead, “Yes, the air is great up there. Just going for a stroll. And what about you?”
Her gaze shifted back and forth between Tang Zelin and Su Shu standing beside him, with a look of watching an entertaining show, making Su Shu extrely uncomfortable as she really wasn’t good at chatting so warmly with others.
Just after Tang Zelin had put a mouthful of stir-fried cabbage on Xiao’ai’s plate, he turned back with a laugh, “Just ca to see my significant other and to mooch a al while I’m at it.”
“Ah haha—” The expression on the woman’s face was sowhat awkward.
Especially when she looked at Su Shu again, the warmth in her eyes had diminished quite a bit. Su Shu was puzzled and glanced at Tang Zelin, who gave her a reassuring look.
“Have you eaten, auntie? Would you like to join us for a bit?”
“No need, no need, you two go ahead. I have so things to take care of, I’ll be going now.” After saying that, her gaze inadvertently swept across their table.
Stir-fried cabbage?
Hm, seems like they aren’t living too well.
The woman, as if having gleaned so important piece of news, cheerfully said her goodbyes and left.
Su Shu thought for a mont, then decided to close the door and co over to eat.
Tang Zelin watched her intently from closing the door to sitting down to eat. “What’s wrong?”
Su Shu looked up. “The thing you said just now…”
“What thing?” Tang Zelin thought for a mont and then realized, “Are you talking about saying I ca to see my significant other?”
“Yeah.”
“I didn’t say anything wrong,” the man said lightly with a smile.
Su Shu let out a sigh and asked, “Doesn’t it bother you?”
Tang Zelin laughed, “What is there for to mind?”
“You’re a military man after all. Won’t coming to see every now and then have an impact on you?”
Tang Zelin took a bite of his food; hmm, the dish was simple, but it tasted very good. His Su Shu was young but quite capable.
“Won’t it have an impact?” Seeing that he didn’t respond, she asked again.
Tang Zelin put down his chopsticks. His visits here weren’t for the sake of food anyway, and besides, there was so little on the table. If he indulged, what would the two of them have left to eat?
“Never mind whether it affects or not, what about you? Do you mind coming to see you?”
Su Shu shook her head.
“Not at all.” She thought to herself.
Tang Zelin felt sowhat relieved inside. He had actually been worried that she might mind.
“If you don’t mind, then there’s nothing else to worry about.”
“I’m not worried about myself; I’m afraid it might affect you negatively.”
Tang Zelin looked up, a flicker of interest in his eyes. “From the mont you said you were my fiancée back on Peng Mountain, the damage was already done.”
Huh?
Su Shu looked up at him. “Did I cause you trouble?”
Tang Zelin’s lips curved into a smile. “Yes.”
“What happened?” Su Shu suddenly beca anxious.
Tang Zelin laughed, “Because I’ve been wondering whether I hit my head sowhere. Otherwise, when did I ever get a fiancée without knowing it?”
At this teasing remark, Su Shu’s face instantly reddened.
“Eat your food!” She retorted, not wanting to bring up such an embarrassing topic.
Tang Zelin laughed heartily.
Xiao’ai was focused on her al, regardless of the subject of Tang Zelin and Su Shu’s conversation; she remained dedicated to the task before her.
Sitting there, Tang Zelin watched the scene of the grown-up and the young one dining together, an inexplicable warmth in his eyes. The serenity of the mont felt exceptionally beautiful, a simple happiness that quietly dispelled many of the shadows in his heart.
Seeing that he kept staring at her, Su Shu hurriedly said, “Why aren’t you eating? Is it not enough? I can make so more.”
