She had to find a way to resolve the current awkward situation between the two of them.
Just as Shu Xin was thinking about it, a cell phone ringing came from the chess and card room. Shu Xin looked over there subconsciously and saw Shen Tingxi taking out her cell phone and answering the phone while playing cards. She immediately thought about it. Shu Xin lightly bumped Mu Jingping's arm. "Can you play mahjong?"
"know a little."
"Shen Tingxi is answering the phone. Go and help him play two sets."
Mu Jingping hurriedly shook his head, "I won't go."
"You rejected his proposal twice and hurt his heart. Shouldn't you take the initiative to show your favor?"
Mu Jingping lowered his head and looked at the juice in his hand without making a sound.
Shu Xin took the glass in her hand and put it on the coffee table, stood up, and pulled her arm, "Let's go, work hard for your happiness!"
Mu Ningran followed Shu Xin's strength and stood up. The two of them dragged her to the chess and card room. Shu Xin pushed Mu Ningran towards Shen Tingxi.
Mu Jingping frowned and looked at Shu Xin, shaking her head.
Shu Xin is really going to be defeated by Mu Jingran. It's too difficult to wait for Mu Jingran to speak. There is no other way. Let her do it. "Shen Tingxi, answer the phone. Can Ning Ning help you play two games?"
Shen Tingxi held the phone in her hand and turned to look at Mu Jingran behind her.
Shu Xin hurriedly pinched Mu Jingping's back gently.
Mu Jingping said softly: "I know a little bit."
Shen Tingxi looked at Mu Jingran for two seconds, stood up, gently squeezed Mu Jingran's shoulder, then took the phone and went to the living room to answer the call.
Mu Jingping sat down where Shen Tingxi had just been. His residual warmth remained on the chair, which was transmitted to her skin through the thin fabric, making her body feel warm and her heart beat erratically.
Shu Xin looked behind Mu Jingjing for a while and felt that she played well and made no mistakes.
Hearing footsteps approaching and knowing that Shen Tingxi was back, Shu Xin walked away, moved a stool and sat down next to Huo Yanqing opposite.
Huo Yanqing freed up a hand to hold Shu Xin's hand and turned to look at her, "If you're tired, go to the lounge and take a nap."
"Well, I don't want to sleep just yet." Shu Xin said.
As soon as Shen Tingxi walked behind Mu Jingran, Mu Jingran was about to get up. Shen Tingxi held her shoulder with one hand and said, "You fight."
Mu Jingping said softly: "I'm not very good at it."
"It's okay, I'll teach you."
Mu Jingping couldn't put it off any longer. He sat on the chair and continued to stare at the cards, but his heartbeat was already in chaos.
Just because Shen Tingxi put his hand on her shoulder and never took it away, it was summer now, and she was only wearing a grass green chiffon short-sleeved shirt. The warmth of his palm penetrated deep into her texture through the clothes, and she seemed to Half of his body was on fire.
His clean and unique masculine scent mixed with the faint aroma of wine floated into his nose.
Normally, Shen Tingxi would always have a faint smell of tobacco, but not today, because he wanted to light up a cigarette while eating, but Huo Yanqing stopped him. Huo Yanqing said that Shu Xin was pregnant and no one was allowed to smoke tonight.
Mu Jingping's thoughts had already flown to nowhere, and suddenly she felt Shen Tingxi's breath approaching her. The next second, Shen Tingxi's warm and hard chest was pressed against her shoulder.
Mu Jingping turned to look at Shen Tingxi. He was reaching out to touch the cards on the table. Only then did he realize that it was her turn to touch the cards, but she didn't know it.
Shen Tingxi put one hand on her shoulder, touched the mahjong card with the other hand and inserted it into the tiles in front of her. He pinched another card with his knuckled fingers and threw it out. During the whole process, he was half-hugging her. Wrapping her between his chest and the card table.
