"But I can't wear it now?" Gu Nianzhi mumbled as she lowered her head and tried to button the back of her bra.
After struggling with the bra for five minutes, she finally couldn't take it anymore and gave up.
She looked up to see Huo Shaoheng sitting on the small two-seater sofa by the wall with one hand on the back of the sofa and one leg crossed. He watched with interest as she "struggled" with her bra.
Gu Nianzhi tried to maintain a nonchalant expression as she turned around and walked to the closet to take out a sports bra. She calmly walked to the bathroom to change.
Actually, her legs were already weak and she closed the door as soon as she entered the bathroom. She leaned against the door and gasped for air.
Holding her head, she walked to the sink and looked at herself in the large mirror. She looked like a peach blossom.
Her eyes were soft and watery, and her lips were red and swollen from the kisses. Thankfully, her lips weren't too thick, so even though they were swollen, they only appeared slightly swollen. It was like a small, meaty mouth that could be kissed at any time. It wasn't ugly, but it made her even sexier.
Her heart skipped a beat as she quickly looked down to turn on the faucet to wash her face with cold water. She then applied skin care products and a light layer of foundation to hide the glow from underneath her skin.
Coming out of the bathroom, Gu Nianzhi saw that her bed was already made.
Huo Shaoheng had taken all the blankets from her bed to change the mattress, but before he could make the bed again, the two of them were already "rolling" on the mattress.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but laugh as she looked at the bed Huo Shaoheng made for her. The sheets were pulled flat and the most prominent part was the quilt. It was folded like a standard tofu block.
"Huo Shao, you're amazing. Not many people can fold this kind of 'tofu block' like you do." Gu Nianzhi picked up her bucket bag and slung it over her shoulder. "Don't you have work to do today?"
Huo Shaoheng stood up to straighten his clothes and said expressionlessly, "I had a meeting this morning and it's already over. I don't have anything else to do today."
Gu Nianzhi took his arm. "Then let's go eat first. I'm hungry."
"You said you were too hungry just now, so I thought you really didn't want to eat." Huo Shaoheng pinched her face. "Let's go, I'll take you to eat something good first, then we'll go buy some underwear."
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she followed Huo Shaoheng out of the room.
As soon as they came out, the door to the other room also opened. Miao Yunxiao stood at the door and looked at Gu Nianzhi suspiciously, then at Huo Shaoheng. Her eyes finally fell on Gu Nianzhi's wrist that was wrapped around Huo Shaoheng's arm.
There was a wristwatch that looked familiar to her.
Gu Nianzhi's smile faded as she nodded politely to Miao Yunxiao and pushed Huo Shaoheng towards the door.
Huo Shaoheng also glanced at Miao Yunxiao but didn't say anything as he led Gu Nianzhi out.
Miao Yunxiao stared at their backs for a while before going back into the house with a heavy expression.
…
Huo Shaoheng took Gu Nianzhi to Scion Plaza to buy lingerie and have lunch there.
For lunch, they went to Jiulou Fengyue Restaurant, which they had visited on the second day of Christmas.
The owner of the restaurant was Xue Jingjiang, Huo Shaoheng's childhood friend.
They had called him on the way before they left.
Xue Jingjiang had been attending to guests from Barbados at home when he suddenly got a call from Huo Shaoheng saying they were going to Jiulou Fengyue Restaurant for lunch. He quickly told the guests to help themselves and that he would be back soon.
He drove to the restaurant before Huo Shaoheng and asked the chef, "Do you still have 'Buddha jumps over the wall'? The 'Buddha jumps over the wall' you prepared for the New Year? I remember you usually keep some until the 15th of the Lunar New Year, right? "
"Also, from the New Year to the 15th, we provide 15 servings of 'Buddha jumps over the wall' to our customers every day. We don't have any more when we sell them out." The restaurant manager was very attentive to Xue Jingjiang, "But we still keep two to three servings every day, just in case something unexpected happens."
"Yes, you guys did very well. Remember to send it to the best private room today. I'll go see for myself later. He's my childhood friend, so make sure you treat him well. "Xue Jingjiang gave a few instructions before going to the private room to prepare.
When Huo Shaoheng arrived, the table was already covered with food. In the middle of the table was an antique jar filled with the delicious stew of 'Buddha jumps over the wall'.
"Huo Shao, you're here. This is Sister Nianzhi, right? I haven't seen you for a few days and you've grown even more beautiful! "Xue Jingjiang greeted them warmly and pulled out chairs for Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi to sit down.
Gu Nianzhi quickly said, "Thank you, Brother Xue. You're too kind."
"We're just here for lunch. You made such a big scene that we're embarrassed to eat." Huo Shaoheng gave a half-smile as he sat down beside Gu Nianzhi.
"You're being too polite." Xue Jingjiang picked up a bottle of red wine and poured Huo Shaoheng a small glass. He asked Gu Nianzhi, "Sister Nianzhi, do you still want milk?"
He still remembered the last time Gu Nianzhi was here, Huo Shaoheng had ordered warm milk for her.
Gu Nianzhi also wanted some warm milk. She had been starving today and needed to rest before eating. "Sure, warm milk is very comfortable." She thanked Xue Jingjiang with a smile.
Xue Jingjiang ordered someone to bring her warm milk and said to Huo Shaoheng, "We have guests today, but I heard that Huo Shao is coming for lunch. Even the Emperor of Heaven has to wait, so I left them at home and came to entertain you first."
"You're being too polite with me. Do you still want to be friends?" Huo Shaoheng smiled and patted Xue Jingjiang on the shoulder. "Ok, you can go back now. We still have to go shopping after lunch, so we won't be staying long."
"Ok, I'll be going now. I've made some progress on what I told you last time. When are you free so we can discuss it again?" Xue Jingjiang said warmly.
Huo Shaoheng knew that Xue Jingjiang had been doing business with the Gu Corporation in Barbados and that there had been some hiccups. Now that the matter had been resolved, he was relieved. "Ok, call Little Ze when you're free. He'll arrange a time."
"Ok!" Xue Jingjiang gave him a nondescript military salute and walked away with a smile.
As soon as he left, the private room fell silent.
Gu Nianzhi giggled. "That man is so noisy. He's as loud as an army."
"That's what boots are like. They love to be rowdy." Huo Shaoheng called Xue Jingjiang by his nickname as he served her a bowl of Buddha jumps over the wall soup.
After a while, the milk arrived. Gu Nianzhi drank half of it in one gulp.
She had been drinking so quickly that her upper lip was covered in white froth. Her entire body seemed to exude a milky scent.
Huo Shaoheng was serving her rice when he turned around to see her. His chest tightened and he put down the bowl. Without thinking, he hugged her and lowered his head to kiss her lips. He licked the froth clean off her upper lip.
"You still smell of your mother's milk …" Huo Shaoheng teased as he kissed her cheek again.
Gu Nianzhi's face flushed. She said sheepishly, "You said I'm still wet behind the ears? I won't let you kiss me anymore. "
"You won't let me kiss you? Then what should I do? "Huo Shaoheng looked thoughtful as he reached out to stroke her hair.
"What do you want to do?" Gu Nianzhi suddenly became nervous. What if Huo Shaoheng said he would kiss someone else if she didn't let him kiss her?
She didn't want to get caught in her own trap. She also didn't want him to kiss someone else …
Unexpectedly, Huo Shaoheng moved closer and brought the side of his face to her lips. "I don't mind you being wet behind the ears. I'll let you kiss me."
