"That jerk really is outrageous."
Wasn’t this what he wanted?
Why is he suddenly doubting this and that now?
Can he not handle it?
Since she had relented, it was after careful consideration; Shen Dang’s reaction was clearly unexpected to her.
Qiao Xi’s voice was cold and hard, "Let’s eat, just pretend I didn’t say what I said just now."
In Shen Dang’s eyes, it seed like Qiao Xi was acting out of spite.
Since she had opened up the conversation herself, how could Boss Shen let the topic go easily.
When opportunities present themselves, they should be seized.
That was Boss Shen’s business philosophy.
Given any chance, he would not let it slip by!
Shen Dang stood up from his seat and approached Qiao Xi, one hand bracing on the dining table while the other rested on the back of her chair. He leaned over, looking straight at her, his peach blossom eyes appearing unfathomably deep.
Qiao Xi beca alert when she t his dark gaze.
"What are you doing?"
"Are you serious?"
Qiao Xi swatted his hand away, her face tense, her expression unclear, "No, I was just joking with you."
She smiled.
This jerk always managed to make her mad.
She realized she felt differently about Shen Dang a long ti ago.
But then many things happened that made her deliberately avoid his feelings.
But so things can’t be forgotten by running away; instead, they might co up unexpectedly, reminding her of her unusual feelings for him.
She was constantly reminding herself to stay clear-headed and rational, but emotions are not easily defined.
She had already gradually fallen into the web of love he had woven.
At that mont, she was just following her heart.
Shen Dang stared at her gorgeous face, "This surprise is too sudden for , I just dare not be sure."
Qiao Xi could see him without lifting her gaze; he positioned himself entirely according to her angle so that she could clearly see the uncertainty on his face.
Shen Dang, with a wry smile, said, "Or perhaps you are moved because I’ve been with you all day today."
Qiao Xi, resting her chin in her hand, stared earnestly at Shen Dang, "Indeed, I am moved, but not just because of today."
Shen Dang’s care and protection were not sothing that could be summarized in a day’s actions.
It wasn’t just this one thing he did.
She avoided Shen Dang’s feelings out of fear, seeking so sense of security, but she felt that real security ant having him by her side when sothing happens.
Sotis, being together could surpass everything else.
Qiao Xi couldn’t deny the good things Shen Dang had done for her in the past just because of what happened today.
Now, her feelings for Shen Dang seed to have naturally taken their own course.
She was not impulsive.
She just gave him a positive answer after his repeated inquiries.
Shen Dang’s gaze was inquisitive, "So you agreed just because you were moved?"
He wanted to hear sothing else.
Qiao Xi knew that, but she just couldn’t say it.
Her voice cool, coldness spreading to her brows, "If you must push this topic, then it’s because I was moved."
This made Shen Dang laugh, slightly helpless, "Can’t it be because you like ?"
Qiao Xi’s face flushed, then she resud an extrely calm deanor, "Isn’t it that you like ?"
"Yeah, I like you. Why else would I pursue you?" he chuckled, "Do you think I’m playing?"
Qiao Xi averted her gaze, lips slightly pursed, "Well, then let’s leave it at that."
Shen Dang turned her face towards him.
His fingers touched her chin, his thumb pressing into her cheek, creating a dimple, slightly distorting her face.
Qiao Xi: "...what are you doing now?"
As she spoke, she knocked his hand away.
"Look at ."
Qiao Xi thought he was going crazy again.
"I won’t look."
His tone was slightly mocking as he teased, "I just need to ask clearly so things."
Qiao Xi frowned, "What don’t you understand?"
A hint of amusent flashed in Shen Dang’s eyes, "So you are my girlfriend now?"
She was flustered, "No!"
She had made herself clear. Why did he have to press her like this?
Shen Dang leaned closer and suddenly kissed her lips.
With a "pop," it made a sound neither too loud nor too soft.
The sudden closeness made Qiao Xi widen her eyes.
He, he really...
"Your lips are quite soft, how can they speak such hard words?" he tilted his head, seeming puzzled.
A woman whose mouth belies her heart.
Qiao Xi: "!!!"
"You..." Qiao Xi pointed to where he had been sitting, her face turning cold: "Go back to your seat!"
She was both cold and embarrassed.
"You haven’t answered my question directly," he smiled leisurely, "So I’m your boyfriend?"
Before Qiao Xi could say anything, Shen Dang nonchalantly said, "Without a satisfactory answer, I’ll keep kissing you until you admit it."
Qiao Xi got angry.
This jerk!
Grinding her teeth, she said, "Shen Dang, you really are a dog."
"No dog, no girlfriend."
He even looked proud of himself.
Qiao Xi was both annoyed and amused, eventually, she couldn’t help but let out a laugh, "If you say so, then it is. If you say not, then it’s not."
Shen Dang kissed her again on the lips, and as Qiao Xi looked at him incredulously, he evenly stated, "Not a direct answer, not satisfied."
Unsatisfied, he continued to kiss.
He should have so rights as a boyfriend, right?
Qiao Xi covered her mouth with her hand, glaring at him, "Shen Dang, if you keep this up, I’ll get mad!"
There is a kind of person who, if you give them an inch, they’ll take a mile.
And Boss Shen was just that kind of person.
Known for taking advantage of every situation.
Shen Dang raised his hands in surrender, his tone casual, "Okay, girlfriend, don’t get mad, I’ll stop then."
Qiao Xi still had not withdrawn her glaring eyes.
Only when Shen Dang returned to his seat did Qiao Xi pull her gaze away.
Shen Dang then turned his eyes back onto her, seemingly unable to get enough.
His gaze was too intense; Qiao Xi couldn’t ignore it even if she wanted to, and seeing that he made no move, she fluttered her eyelids, "Aren’t you going to eat?"
Why keep staring at her?
"Will eat."
But he still didn’t move.
Qiao Xi speechless, "Then eat."
Stop staring at her!
Shen Dang propped his chin, drawling slowly, "I never knew until now what ’a feast for the eyes’ really ant."
Qiao Xi took a deep breath, her smile more a grimace, "Can you let soone eat in peace?"
Shen Dang lifted his jaw, his peach blossom eyes turning into smiling ones, all languid and lazy, "You eat."
Qiao Xi could only helplessly take out her phone to avoid his gaze.
Shen Dang clicked his tongue, "Eating while looking at your phone isn’t good."
Qiao Xi looked up, "That’s none of your business!"
She was quite assertive with that remark.
He casually asked, "Aren’t boyfriends supposed to care?"
Qiao Xi lightly retorted, "It could also be not."
Shen Dang’s eyes instantly darkened, "Clarify, how can it not be, you agreed but want to go back on it?"
