Listening to the undertones in Xu Jingyuan's words, Chu Ge was a bit sweaty. At a ti like this, she still had the mood for this kind of thing?
But then again, Chu Ge thought it over and felt relieved. How could Xu Jingyuan not be afraid? Anyone would be afraid in this situation. She was just trying to use so light topics to divert her attention.
His interactions with them were not too frequent. When they occasionally t, they often talked about these kinds of things, but each ti, the feeling was different.
Perhaps he really should stay with them a bit longer, chat with them, talk about sothing light to relax and ease their tense nerves.
However, after hesitating for a few seconds, Chu Ge shook his head, "Alright, let's talk about this later. It's getting late. First, you guys think if there's anything you need, make a list so I can arrange it for you."
A flash of disappointnt appeared in the eyes of the two won, but it was quickly replaced by understanding. When Chu Ge had previously refused them, perhaps he doubted their motives, but this refusal clearly wasn't trying to take advantage of them, preventing any utilitarian or transactional nature from appearing in their relationship.
Moreover, Chu Ge didn't completely reject the idea. In a sense, it admitted that he did have feelings for them. Instead of disappointnt, they should feel comforted.
The two won didn't tease anymore. They agreed and found pen and paper, thinking carefully they each wrote a list.
When the two won finished writing, Chu Ge took a look, and most were various daily necessities, the essential ones. Clearly, they were not pretentious won.
Although there were so female necessities and skincare products among the items, Chu Ge wasn't embarrassed by these things. The only thing that left him a bit speechless was that so of these items, he hadn't even bought for his wife yet.
Noticing the change in Chu Ge's gaze at the two lists, Chen Jiatong giggled, "Chu Shao, buying these things won't be too difficult for you, right? Should we also give you that thing and that thing to avoid you having trouble explaining the sizes to the salesperson?"
Chu Ge sweated a bit, with black lines on his forehead. These two won left in a hurry, what are that thing and that thing? Did Chen Jiatong an... at this ti, are we still playing word puzzles?
Of course, this was obviously a joke to lighten the mood. Chu Ge shook his head with amusent, "That's unnecessary, I can manage, don't worry."
Chen Jiatong laughed, she really was just making a joke. She herself didn't know what that thing and that thing were, just trying to ease her nervousness.
Seeing the mischievous smile on Chen Jiatong's face, Chu Ge rembered sothing he hadn't had the chance to tell them, and couldn't help but grin, thinking now it might be their turn to feel awkward.
"By the way, in this house, except for the bathroom, I've installed so caras everywhere else."
Sure enough, when Chu Ge finished speaking, both Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan froze and quickly looked around, but they didn't find any caras.
"Chu Shao, you're lying to us, aren't you? There's no cara here."
"Why would I lie to you? I really have installed them; the caras are just smaller." Chu Ge shrugged, pulled out his phone, displayed the surveillance video, and handed it to Chen Jiatong.
Seeing the footage on the phone screen, the two won couldn't help but believe it, although they were still amazed at how well-hidden the caras were. Even after carefully checking again, they still couldn't find them.
In addition to astonishnt, the two won felt deeply moved. Chu Ge, to ensure their safety, not only helped them rent a house but also installed caras, being so ticulous and attentive.
Chen Jiatong looked at the screen and then at Chu Ge, "Chu Shao, you're so professional at installing caras, there's not a single blind spot."
Xu Jingyuan also leaned over to the phone, "Really, Jiatong, look at us from this angle, don't we look the best on cara?"
"Hmm? It does seem so, and from this angle, Chu Shao looks the most handso too."
Seeing these two won reacting like this, Chu Ge sweated internally again. He intended to see them embarrassed and tease them, but instead, they were discussing which angle they looked best from.
This feeling was like telling a girl a blue joke, expecting to see her blushing and shyly saying, "You're bad," but instead, she happily asks for another one without a care for the so-called decency.
Chu Ge took back the phone speechlessly, "With such cara coverage in the house, don't you feel awkward or bothered? Whenever I want, I can see what you're doing."
Chen Jiatong smiled calmly and shook her head, "Chu Shao, if it were soone else installing these things in our room, of course we'd mind. But since it's you, it only shows you care about us. Why would we mind?"
Xu Jingyuan gently held Chu Ge's hand, "Our people and our hearts are yours. Knowing your caring eyes are behind these caras just makes us feel satisfied and happy."
Listening to such affectionate words and seeing the sincere look in their eyes, the speechlessness in Chu Ge's heart was imdiately replaced by warmth.
Feeling touched, Chu Ge smiled broadly on the surface, put the two lists into his handbag, and stood up from the sofa, "You guys flatter , in fact, I'm just a voyeuristic mania, not as noble as you say."
The two won giggled. Although this guy, as usual, self-sabotaged his image and made the atmosphere a bit awkward, this was the Chu Ge they knew. If he suddenly said sothing sweet, they might not even get used to it.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll head out first. Don't forget the things I ntioned earlier. If anything cos to mind, feel free to call ."
The two won stood up beside Chu Ge, saw him to the door, and the three of them exchanged smiles as Chu Ge pushed the door open and left.
It felt as if they weren't in any trouble at all, but just like usual, everything was so peaceful and beautiful.
At the market, he bought so spareribs and vegetables. Chu Ge returned to Qin Ruojing's house, took out his keys, and opened the door. The Qin sisters were sitting on the sofa in the living room, and when they heard the door, they both looked over as if they had been discussing sothing that was abruptly interrupted by his arrival.
"I'm back. Are you two hungry?" Chu Ge entered the house, changing his shoes and greeting the Qin sisters.
Qin Ruoying approached Chu Ge, eyes sparkling, and asked, "Brother-in-law, what delicious food are you going to make for dinner?"
"Braised pork ribs with beans, stead salmon, stir-fried vegetable dley, and tomatoes with sugar. How does that sound?"
Qin Ruoying giggled, "Fantastic! Brother-in-law, you're the best. Those are all my favorite dishes."
Qin Ruojing also ca over to Chu Ge's side and took the items from his hands. "No need to make so many dishes. We can't finish them anyway. Plus, if we keep eating like this, I'm really worried about our weight."
Chu Ge grinned, "No worries. Even if you beco a chubby, your husband won't mind."
Qin Ruojing felt warm inside and rolled her eyes at Chu Ge, "You just know how to sweet-talk. Who knows if you'll still want then?"
"Then could I beco a chubby instead?"
"No way!"
This ti, Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying spoke in unison. Seeing the surprisingly synchronized sisters, Chu Ge shook his head speechlessly, his smile even brighter.
After a few jokes, Chu Ge entered the kitchen and started cooking, familiar with the tasks. Qin Ruojing wasn't idle either; she cooked a pot of rice and helped him out. Before they knew it, a sumptuous dinner was placed on the table.
The three of them sat at the table, picked up their chopsticks, and just as they were about to start eating, Chu Ge's phone rang.
Chu Ge put down his chopsticks and gave Qin Ruojing an apologetic look, "Honey, I'll take this call."
Just as Chu Ge was about to stand up, Qin Ruojing smiled and pressed his shoulder, "You just sit there; you've worked hard cooking all day. I'll get it for you."
Hearing Qin Ruojing's words, Chu Ge couldn't help but smile wryly, though he really couldn't argue against her.
Qin Ruojing took the incessantly ringing phone from Chu Ge's bag and glanced at the screen. It only displayed a number without any stored na.
"Here." Qin Ruojing returned to the table and handed the phone to Chu Ge.
Chu Ge took the phone and glanced at the unfamiliar number. He intended to take the call elsewhere, but before he could stand, Qin Ruojing pressed him back down again.
"It's just us sisters here, no outsiders. You can take the call here."
Chu Ge felt a bit troubled, glanced at the smiling Qin Ruojing, and ultimately answered the phone.
"Chu Ge?" Judging from the voice, the caller was likely a man under thirty, with a voice that was calm yet full of provocation and disdain.
Though the caller only said two words, Chu Ge could feel the hostility. He couldn't help but chuckle coldly in his heart, figuring they'd finally co looking for him.
Despite the cold laugh, Chu Ge showed no outward sign of it, and under Qin Ruojing's slightly worried gaze, he grinned, "Oh, it's . Old Zhang, is it? What do you need for?"
"Ha..."
Hearing the caller scoff, Chu Ge beca even more certain of his guess and quickly said, "Dinner out sowhere? Now? I'm not really free... What? Old Li and Old Chen are there too? Waiting just for ? Ah, okay, alright then, I'll be there shortly. Okay, great!"
With that, Chu Ge hung up the phone and gave Qin Ruojing a wry smile.
