Inside the wonton shop.

"Boss, I want two bowls of seaweed wontons, one without chopped green onions."

After Mu Qianxi ordered the food, she sat back opposite Leng Che, naturally took out a tissue, and wiped the area of ​​the table in front of him again.

"Take the remaining money and put it in the piggy bank as our midnight snack fund. We'll go out together later!" Mu Qianxi talked about her future plans with a smile on her face like a refreshing spring breeze. For a moment, it made people forget that it was winter outside.

"So happy?" Infected by her, Leng Che, who was usually cold and indifferent, became a little more relaxed.

"Yeah." Her dark eyes smiled, as if they were filled with stars. The next moment, she smiled playfully again, "After all, it means I have many opportunities to have supper with you."

It's really only three seconds of seriousness. Leng Che was helpless in his heart, but he responded calmly: "You can eat by yourself in the future."

"How could I be such a person! Do I look like someone who only eats for himself? Of course, happiness should be shared, right?"

What’s the point if he doesn’t come out? Whether the midnight snack is delicious or not depends mainly on who is the person opposite you!

"Really? For such a small matter, you still praise yourself as being so great." Leng Che's whole expression softened, and there seemed to be a faint smile on the corners of his mouth. It seemed as if all the shackles on his body had been removed when the two were together.

"Alright, alright, I'll be honest. I just covet your beauty, okay?" Mu Qianxi frankly stated her ill intentions and looked into his eyes with a smile without hiding anything. There was a sense of ease and calmness hidden between her beautiful brows.

Being teased unexpectedly again, he felt a chill in his heart and turned his eyes away without saying anything.

She was the only one who pursued him so blatantly and shamelessly.

"Two bowls of seaweed wontons are ready!" the shop owner shouted.

Mu Qianxi was eating her bowl of wontons, and she even added a few spoonfuls of coriander into it. On the other hand, the bowl opposite her only had its original flavor, without even any chopped green onions.

"Is it delicious?" She always liked to ask this question every time she fed him. When she saw him nod, she felt surprisingly good.

"Yeah." Every time he ate, he spoke very little, slowly and quietly. Especially when she fed him, Leng Che always looked particularly well-behaved, which made her feel pleasing to the eye and made her want to tease him even more.

So, she especially liked to bring him food.

Mu Qianxi was stunned for a moment, and the scene she saw in the illusion flashed through her mind. She was a child and ate wontons with a little boy. She didn't know whether what she saw in the illusion was true or false. She had almost no memory before the age of 7, but the scene overlapped with the present moment, and the feeling of déjà vu lingered.

She asked unconsciously: "Leng Che, have we met before?"

Hearing this, Leng Che paused, as if he was accidentally touched by something, but immediately regained his calm and indifferent expression, as if he just thought she was talking nonsense, and remained silent.

Wait, why do I feel like I'm using the old-fashioned pick-up techniques to get close to you?

Mu Qianxi suddenly noticed and quickly explained: "I'm not trying to get close to you. Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."

As she was quiet, the two of them quietly enjoyed their midnight snack. Although there was no conversation, the atmosphere was very relaxed and comfortable, and there was no need for too many words to reconcile.

The wontons in the bowl had been mostly eaten, and Mu Qianxi suddenly looked up and said to him: "Leng Che, be my boyfriend."

Leng Che was startled by the sudden confession, and his eyes moved slightly, like a calm cold pond being touched by the breeze and causing ripples. He looked up in surprise and happened to meet her passionate and sincere gaze. From her eyes, he could clearly see that she was not joking, but was sincerely and enthusiastically waiting for his answer.

His heart was beating like a drumstick in his chest. The loud heartbeat seemed to heat his face, and his fingers holding the spoon tightened unconsciously.

His Adam's apple moved nervously and he lowered his eyes, avoiding her sincere gaze.

All emotions are in his eyes, deep and profound.

He just remained silent for one minute... two minutes... three minutes... deep in his heart he kept questioning himself about his truest feelings.

Can he bet everything on that? Bet that she won't run away after knowing his identity, bet that her love is real and not just a youthful impulse?

Her emotions were too open and passionate. He wanted to touch them, but was afraid of being thrown into the abyss again.

It turned out that I was the most timid and cowardly person, and I didn't even have the courage to accept her feelings.

Leng Che thought.

But this time, he wanted to take a gamble.

Suddenly, her crisp laughter came to his ears. He looked up, with a bit of doubt in his eyes: "What are you laughing at."

"You are considering it, Leng Che." Her clear eyes were full of smiles. She just stared at him, her fair and delicate face so dazzling that people couldn't take their eyes away. "You don't reject me without thinking like before. This shows that I have improved. In your heart, my position has improved a little bit."

"..."

Indeed, she was right.

Leng Che pursed his lips and said nothing, his thoughts like a tangled mess that couldn't be untangled. After a long time, he finally spoke, looked into her eyes seriously, and replied to her solemnly: "The National Physics Competition will be held in G City next Friday. The school decided to go there a few days early to adapt to the environment and prepare for the exam. I will leave at noon tomorrow. I need to think it over during this time, and I will give you an answer after I come back."

When I was in school, I heard that he won the second place in Yuncheng in the physics competition, and the first place was Han Sheng. But I didn't expect that the national competition would start so soon.

"When will you come back?" Mu Qianxi had mixed feelings. She was happy for him, but also felt sad because she wouldn't be able to see him for a week.

"The school has tentatively planned to take the participating students to G City for a tour on Saturday and return in the evening." Leng Che's eyes were deep and his lips were slightly pursed, "So Christmas Day..."

Next Saturday is Christmas, and Mu Qianxi originally wanted to invite him to go out and play together, after all, she won a prize in the competition before, and he promised to accompany her to the movies. But then she thought, wouldn’t it be more interesting to travel with classmates in G City? He is so nice, he should have more friends around him.

Wanting him to have no worries, Mu Qianxi pretended to smile and said before he could finish, "Why don't you spend Christmas in G City playing with your teachers and classmates? That's great. You need to relax after the exams! I also plan to go out and play with my friends!"

After saying that, she buried her head in her food, fearing that he would discover the flaw.

"......" Leng Che felt inexplicably unhappy when he heard this, and stopped talking. His deep eyebrows turned colder, and he replied indifferently, "Yeah."

I was so depressed. He had just confessed his love to her, but now she had left him to celebrate the holiday with someone else before he even finished speaking! What a little liar.

Leng Che thought.

His position in her heart may not be as important as these friends.

"If you think I'll take a long time to think, you don't have to wait. After all, you're an impatient person and you get annoyed if others take a few more minutes to clean up after school," he added.

He was sensitive to begin with, and the words just now made him even more insecure. His deep and dark eyes were like a pool of frozen ice water.

"I'm impatient because Xiao Shiyan delayed my leaving school with you, okay?" Mu Qianxi's subconscious and anxious retort just happened to melt the ice in his heart, "Why are you the same as others? Waiting for you for a week is not long~"

He is sensitive, extremely insecure and lacks a sense of security in relationships, but Mu Qianxi can always express her preference in the most direct and passionate way without any disguise, which just breaks through his cold defenses.

Hearing this, he looked disapproving, but his entire aura softened because of her words.

After hearing the sound of a shutter, they both turned their heads to look...
