The corner of her eye turned slightly in his direction, and she was observing his reaction calmly.
She thought he would be suspicious. However, Qing Muchen just slowly tasted the meal she prepared, as if he was aftertasteing it. After a while, he slowly said, "Adjust the oven temperature." Taller."
Xixi took a long breath, lowered her head and said, "I will pay attention next time."
Qing Muchen didn't say anything more, turned his head and started chatting with Shi Jinyang.
The two of them talked about topics that Xixi wasn't interested in, such as what happened to Jueye's business and how much profit there was.
Qing Muchen and Shi Jinyang were already in the same interest chain. They seemed to have endless topics to talk about. They sat in the garden for the whole morning.
Qing Muchen didn't let Xixi leave. Xixi stood beside her from beginning to end. She stood there for as long as the two of them chatted. Her legs were numb and her eyes were dizzy. It was more cruel than military training.
It was almost noon when Tong Yan walked out of the room.
"Xixi, why don't you sit down?" Tong Yan has never had any airs of being a young lady in this family. To Xixi, she is like the only breath of fresh air in the family. It is very comfortable to get along with her.
Qing Muchen, on the other hand, is like a cancer in this family. Whenever he is around, Xixi is on pins and needles at any time.
As children of the same mother, Xixi sometimes finds it hard to understand why there is such a huge difference between the two siblings.
"Miss, it doesn't matter to me." She twitched the corners of her mouth slightly and smiled at Tong Yan.
"Then keep standing!" Qing Muchen followed her words.
Xixi was used to his bad manners, so it was not surprising that a person like him would say such things.
But Tong Yan couldn't stand it, so she pulled Xixi and sat down, "Ignore my brother, he has such a temper."
She took a cup of coffee on the dining table and took a sip. She turned to Xixi and said, "By the way, I'm going out for a while. Do you have time in the afternoon? If you're not busy, would you like to go out with me?"
Xixi was more willing to get along with her. Just when she was about to reply, Qing Muchen's cool voice suddenly came in again, "Yanyan, are you very free?"
Tong Yan was stunned for a moment, then babbled, "What are you doing? Isn't it just borrowing your person? You can't bear to let him go all afternoon?"
Xixi, "..."
Qing Muchen didn't react much to her words, and replied to her expressionlessly, "Jin Yang has been here all morning."
"Really?" Tong Yan's hand movements paused.
Actually, there was one sentence she didn't say.
When he comes here, does it mean he is looking for her
The Shi family and the Qing family have always been close, and Shi Jinyang often visits the Qing family. Tong Yan doesn't think that his coming here has something to do with her.
Besides, he still has someone else in his heart...
Thinking of this, Tong Yan's chest suddenly felt a little tight.
The coffee she had just brought to her lips, she took a few sips.
Like Xixi, she likes sweetness. Xixi's breakfast today did not cater to Qing Muchen's preference, but it suited her very well.
I thought it tasted good, so I took a few more sips.
The cup was almost empty when a low, teasing voice suddenly came from the side, "This cup of coffee is what I just drank!"
Shi Jinyang's voice.
Lazy and seemingly smiling.
The coffee Tong Yan just drank was stuck in his throat.
