She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, her thoughts would start to run wild again. Those were all unrealistic fantasies, and the more she thought about them, the greedier she would become.
Ye Xiao frowned. She actually accepted it with a clear conscience.
“Stop! You are not allowed to go anywhere!” Night Owl called her coldly, “I don’t live here to cook for you!”
He felt that this feeling was quite wrong. He originally wanted to torture her, but, how did it turn out to be serving her? !
"If you don't want to, then let it go. I can do it myself." Bai Suye didn't want to force him.
Night Owl glanced at her hand, his expression remained indifferent, and he just ordered calmly: "Boil some water, I'm thirsty!"
Bai Suye didn't know what he meant, so she just turned around and went to boil water. Ye Xiao also didn't put down what he was doing and was busy all the time. The kitchen was not too big, and it was more than enough to accommodate her before, but now that Ye Xiao was standing in it, the whole space became very crowded. She stood behind him, looking at his back with some obsession, watching him busy, and smelling the good smell on him.
It was obviously crowded, but I didn't want to leave. Being so close to him, watching him busy, I actually felt a little... happy...
I wonder how many women he has cooked for in the past ten years...
She was thinking aimlessly. Ye Xiao was cooking and was looking for a plate. Unexpectedly, when she turned around, she bumped into him. Moreover, his strong chest hit her head. She groaned and felt a little dizzy. She covered her head with her hands and took a step back. Behind her was the refrigerator. Ye Xiao's breathing tightened, he threw down the spatula, turned around, and without thinking, he put his hand behind her head.
Because of his hand, her injured head didn't hit the refrigerator. But she still made a hissing sound in pain. She frowned and raised her head. Ye Xiao's handsome face was so close to her that his breath almost touched her nose. She breathed hard, and for a long time, she even forgot to look away.
He stared at her from top to bottom, his breathing becoming heavier. He opened his lips, wanting to ask if she was okay, but the words that came out of his mouth were: "If you're fine, get out, don't keep me here."
Cold and stiff.
This one sentence brought Bai Suye back to her senses, and all her palpitations just now were replaced by her calmness and rationality.
She stood up against the refrigerator and moved her head away from his hand. "I listened to you and boiled some water for you. When the water boils, you can pour it yourself. I'll be out first."
After saying that, he left the kitchen without stopping.
only…
There is no denying that when I am with him, the palpitations that I thought I would never have again are still the same as they were ten years ago.
even…
Maybe because so much time has passed, it is more intense and crazy than before.
… … … … …
Night Owl made lunch, and Bai Suye tasted it and found it had a very light taste.
"When did you start to like such light tastes?" Bai Suye asked Ye Xiao.
"Do you still remember what I liked in the past?" Night Owl snorted and glanced at the gauze on her head. Since she had a wound, she naturally had to eat lighter food.
"Of course I remember." Bai Suye curled her lips, "I told you, your information is all in our hands. From small things like how many hours you sleep a day to big things like the businesses you run and the people you've come into contact with."
Night Owl really didn't like her argument, "Okay, eat well."
She didn't say anything else. She tasted the dish he cooked and couldn't help but praise him, "Yexiao, you are such a good cook. You are really a virtuous woman."
Night Owl snorted, "You must have been very lucky in your previous life to be able to eat the food I cook."
In my previous life…
Were they actually in each other's lives in the previous life
Bai Suye thought to herself, but the corners of her lips curled up in disapproval, "I'm not the only one who has eaten it, right?"
Ye Xiao's hand holding the chopsticks tightened a little, and he looked at her with a deeper gaze. In fact... Over the years, she was not the only one who had tasted his cooking skills, but when it came to women, he had only cooked for her.
Ye Xiao thought that maybe he owed her too much in his previous life, and she came to collect the debt from him in this life.
… … …
At noon, Bai Suye went back to her room for a nap, and when she woke up it was already past three in the afternoon. When she arrived at the study, she saw Ye Xiao still sitting there looking through project documents, and her heart was filled with an indescribable sense of peace and steadiness.
Suddenly, I felt like the two of us had returned to ten years ago...
However, after waking up, she knew that there was no going back between them...
She turned to the kitchen and poured two cups of hot tea. When she returned to the study, Ye Xiao had already put down the project materials and was talking on the phone on the terrace of the study, talking about work.
Bai Suye put one of the cups next to his computer - the desk was occupied by him, and the information and documents piled up almost half of the desk, leaving no room for her. She had to move her computer and curl up in front of another small computer desk to deal with emails. Ye Xiao talked on the phone for nearly half an hour. When he came back and saw the cup of hot tea, his expression became much warmer. He threw his phone aside, took a sip of the tea, and felt it was sweet and fragrant.
That feeling spread all the way from his throat and quickly spread into his heart. In an instant, he felt all the tiredness in his body was swept away, and his spirits were suddenly full.
I subconsciously glanced at her. She was holding a teacup and concentrating on reading emails. Perhaps she had encountered something difficult, her pretty eyebrows were tightly knitted, and the tea in the cup had gone cold without even taking a sip.
Night Owl didn't say anything, but just continued to work quietly.
Well, it is actually a very good thing for everyone to do their own thing, not interfere with each other, and live in peace and tranquility.
… … … …
Time passed in such peace. No one spoke a word throughout the afternoon. Only the sound of files being shuffled could be heard. Occasionally, Night Owl would walk out onto the terrace and smoke a cigarette to relieve his fatigue.
Even so, time passes quite quickly.
By the time Bai Suye looked up, it was past five o'clock. There was no trace of Ye Xiao in front of the desk. When she walked out, she could see Ye Xiao busy in the kitchen wearing an apron.
She smiled sweetly, subconsciously picked up her phone, and took a picture of the figure from a distance.
For a moment, she was mesmerized. When she came to her senses, she quickly put away her phone. She felt like a thief, with some traces that she could only hide by herself and not let anyone see.
