Mr. Gu, stop chasing me! Miss Jiang has become a movie queen!

"Hey, it's so cold."

Jiang Ning wrapped herself in a bath towel, got out of the bathtub, wrapped her hair with a dry hair cap, stood in front of the mirror, and applied body lotion on her legs and arms.

The cold texture of the cream melts in the palm of my hand, and as my warm fingers slide across my thighs, it clings to the surface of my skin, leaving a rich fragrance on my body.

She opened a bottle of expensive essence, applied it evenly on her face, and used a heated vibrating massager to repeatedly circle her face, as the advertisement said this would allow for better absorption.

However, oily essences are not suitable for beginners like Jiang Ning. Her skin seemed to be covered with oil. Jiang Ning felt that this might cause acne, so she finally switched to a regular hydrating mask.

Ding-dong-

The doorbell rang, and Jiang Ning thought that it must be the takeaway ordered by Gu Yuan that arrived, but the delivery man did not call Jiang Ning or make any sound, he just kept ringing the doorbell.

Jiang Ning had a thick layer of facial mask on her face. As she was washing it off, some of the foam accidentally got into her eyes. She felt a stinging pain in her eyes. Jiang Ning shouted impatiently towards the door, "Put it out the door."

There was no more noise outside the door. After Jiang Ning rinsed off the facial mask, she used eye wash to clean the impurities in her eyes. She waited until everything was cleaned up before she went to get the takeaway.

There was almost no one in the dark corridor. Jiang Ning thought that most people might be eating in the hall at this moment, so he didn't think much about it. He picked up the takeaway on the ground and walked back into the house.

Jiang Ning picked up the takeaway, took a photo with the takeaway and sent it to Gu Yuan, indicating that he had received it.

The fragrance was already released from the bag before it was even opened. There were many layers of plastic wrap inside and outside, so it didn't leak at all.

Jiang Ning put the takeaway on the table and after opening it, he found there was a barbecue grill inside.

When she took apart everything and put it on the table, she found that it seemed like she needed to assemble it herself.

Jiang Ning thought, "Gu Yuan must be afraid that I'll eat it, so he arranged such a troublesome takeaway."

Fortunately, there were instructions for use in the bag. Jiang Ning followed the instructions and set up the barbecue grill. Then he placed the iron plate from the takeaway on it, poured the grilled fish onto the plate, and then placed a block of flammable alcohol under the grill plate. This completed the assembly.

There was only one step left before eating, and he had to use a lighter to light the alcohol block. Jiang Ning shrank his hand, still afraid of burning himself, but he was hungry. Jiang Ning thought about it and his eyes stayed on the napkin that came with the takeaway.

She folded the napkin into a long strip, lit it, and threw it into the pile of alcohol blocks, which also lit successfully.

"Have you eaten? Is it delicious?"

Gu Yuan sent a message to Jiang Ning at this time. Jiang Ning always felt that he was gloating, so he didn't reply to him out of spite.

Anyway, it would take some time for the grilled fish to be fully heated, so Jiang Ning simply went to blow-dry his hair first.

After removing the hair drying cap, the water on the hair had been almost absorbed dry. Jiang Ning's inky black hair was spread out behind her head. She was already breathtakingly beautiful without any decoration.

After Jiang Ning combed her hair, she applied hair care oil twice. This completed the preparation work. Otherwise, if she blow-dried her hair directly, it would damage the hair quality.

The hair dryer was buzzing in my ears, and the sound of the boiling grilled fish outside continued to tempt my taste buds. The two sounds overlapped together, and a feeling of happiness surged in my heart.

After all this was done, the grilled fish was almost heated through and the whole house was filled with fragrance. Jiang Ning changed into a comfortable T-shirt and sat at the table to prepare to eat.

Almost as soon as she picked up the rice, Gu Yuan called her via video.

After the call was connected, I saw that Gu Yuan was still in the company, and his background was still that familiar office.

Jiang Ning put down the rice that was about to reach his mouth and asked Gu Yuan: "Why haven't you gone home yet at this time?"

Gu Yuan was still wearing a formal suit, but it was probably almost time to get off work, so he didn't look so neat, and two buttons on the collar of his shirt were undone.

"Nothing, just a meeting that started a little late."

While saying this, Gu Yuan adjusted himself to a comfortable posture, lying back on the chair.

He continued, "And I have other things to deal with tomorrow, so I won't go back today. I'll clean up and go to sleep on the bed inside. I thought you might be free now, so I gave you a call."

"Oh, I see. Have you eaten yet?"

Jiang Ning took a bite of the fish and put it in her mouth. The spicy and numbing taste rushed straight into her brain, and she couldn't help but blink. But this kind of spiciness is only spicy when you first eat it, and the aftertaste is fragrant. It has an inexplicable magic that makes people addicted.

Gu Yuan picked up a candy and put it in his mouth, then watched Jiang Ning eat silently.

Her soft hair was still shiny, and she almost ate the hair at her temples while eating the fish.

Gu Yuan saw it and reminded her, "Be careful with your hair. Don't let it get greasy after just washing it."

"it is good."

Jiang Ning casually picked up a hairband and skillfully tied her hair into a bun on her head, which immediately revealed her superior shoulder and neck lines.

Gu Yuan: "I heard this fish is also a local specialty. It has no bones, so you can eat it without worry."

"I know. I felt it when I ate it. It's really different. Why are you in such a hurry to go back? If you stayed for two more days, wouldn't you be able to eat it?"

Jiang Ning ate the fish and rice in one mouthful, enjoying the meal very much, and he didn't care at all that there were rice grains on the corners of his mouth.

Gu Yuan still had candy in his mouth and smiled bitterly: "I don't have this blessing, you can eat more and try it for me."

Seeing Jiang Ning eating so happily, Gu Yuan no longer disturbed her and just watched her silently. Watching her mouth moving while she ate, Gu Yuan felt a sense of accomplishment for some reason.

He did not hang up the video call, but put the phone somewhere out of the way and continued to deal with the work that he had not finished during the day. The sound of keyboard tapping came from the phone screen.

But Jiang Ning didn't want to listen. What happened just now kept playing in her mind like a psychological shadow, so she walked over, turned on the TV, randomly played a movie channel, and turned the volume up to the maximum to cover up the sound of Gu Yuan's keyboard.

The two looked at each other in silence, just accompanying each other silently.

With the dual blessing of mental and physical work, Jiang Ning got hungry quickly and ate quickly. In addition, the grilled fish tasted really good, and he had eaten all the meat on the fish in a short while.

Jiang Ning put all the disposable garbage into a big bag and put it at the door, and the hotel cleaning staff would come to take it away.

After she finished all this, Gu Yuan was still sitting in front of the computer desk, as if he had always been in this posture.

Gu Yuan wore a pair of black-framed glasses on his high nose bridge, and the lenses reflected blue light, but it still couldn't hide his noble temperament. If it were someone else wearing such an old-fashioned frame, it would definitely not look like him.

Looking at Gu Yuan's profile as he worked seriously, Jiang Ning remembered what Lin Zhi had said to her before: Men who work seriously are the most handsome.

Originally, she didn't feel the reality of this sentence, but now Jiang Ning realized that it seemed quite handsome.

Perhaps he felt someone's eyes were on him, Gu Yuan turned his head to look at the phone screen, and saw Jiang Ning staring at him.

Jiang Ning was looking at Gu Yuan's handsome face on the screen, but his mind was still thinking about other things, so his eyes were a little distracted. But from Gu Yuan's perspective, Jiang Ning was just looking at him.

Gu Yuan turned his face around, a smile appeared on his lips, and his tone was slightly deliberate and tempting. He said to Jiang Ning: "Are you looking at me?"

After hearing what Gu Yuan said, Jiang Ning's ears began to turn red uncontrollably.

Jiang Ning defended himself, "I didn't look at you." Then he hung up the video in a hurry.

Gu Yuan took the phone back and the page returned to their chat interface, showing that the call lasted one hour and twenty-three minutes. The chat background was a photo of the two of them taken by Jiang Ning.

He poked Jiang Ning's face on the screen with his bony fingers, thinking, it would be nice if he touched her soft little face instead of the cold screen.
