I'm a little panicked when I cross the collapse

"So, what kind of relationship do we have now?" Fu Hua's heart was still pounding in her chest, as if it would jump out of her throat, making it difficult for her to calm down. She raised her head slightly, looking at the man in front of her with a somewhat evasive gaze, and asked softly, her voice revealing a hint of fear.

The man seemed oblivious to Fu Hua's unusual behavior...

Hearing Fu Hua's question, he casually replied, "Don't talk, keep eating... uh, no!"

As soon as he spoke, the man realized that his answer was inappropriate and quickly stopped talking.

Some strange thoughts flashed through his mind, causing him to cough awkwardly twice, trying to cover up his lapse in composure.

What kind of things are I thinking about?

Lu Qiong secretly regretted it.

He composed himself and decided to answer Fu Hua's question in a "different" way.

He reached out and gently patted Fu Hua's head, then tentatively asked, "Friend?"

However, this answer clearly did not satisfy Fu Hua. Her face instantly darkened, and her cheeks, which were already slightly flushed, turned bright red. With a "smack," Fu Hua abruptly slapped away the man's large hand that was on her head, and shouted angrily, "Don't touch me! Go and be intimate with your friends!"

"Hey, hey, hey! Hua, don't be angry!" Lu Qiong saw that Fu Hua's expression was not good and quickly tried to comfort her.

"It was just a joke," he explained with a smile, while gently patting Fu Hua's shoulder to try and put her at ease.

However, Fu Hua did not seem to appreciate it. Her body trembled slightly, clearly as she tried to control her emotions.

Seeing this, Lu Qiong quickly increased the strength of his grip, forcibly pulling the girl, who was about to break free, back into his arms.

"Na Hua, what do you think our relationship is now?" Lu Qiong looked at Fu Hua with a serious expression and suddenly asked this question.

Fu Hua was caught off guard by his question. Her lips moved, but no sound came out. After a while, as if she had made a great decision, she whispered, "You...!"

But the words caught in her throat, and she hesitated, her voice becoming even softer: "How...how could you throw the problem at me again?"

Fu Hua glared at Lu Qiong angrily, inwardly groaning. She was well aware that their relationship had transcended that of ordinary friends, but due to her personality, she simply couldn't bring herself to say those words.

Lu Qiong seemed to see through her thoughts. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and revealed a slightly teasing smile: "Say it, say it now, say it out loud."

His eyes revealed boundless anticipation, like a strange uncle leading an innocent young girl astray.

Fu Hua's face flushed red instantly, and her heart began to race. Under Lu Qiong's gaze, she felt as if something was blocking her throat, and she couldn't utter a word.

"Anyway...anyway, it's definitely more than just a normal friendship!" Finally, Fu Hua managed to utter this sentence, as if she had used all her strength. As soon as the words left her mouth, her pretty face turned bright red, like a ripe apple.

Seeing this, Lu Qiong looked disappointed and sighed inwardly, "Sigh, it's really not an easy thing to get an honest person to be brave."

"Let's go!"

Lu Qiong scooped Fu Hua up in his arms and headed in that direction.

"Where are you taking me?"

Lu Qiong thought for a moment, "Shall I take you to my house?"

Is anyone home?

“I have two older sisters, they should both be home right now, right?” Lu Qiong said uncertainly.

"what?!"

Fu Hua's mouth opened wide, forming an "O" shape, clearly startled.

"Meeting the parents already? Isn't that a bit too fast?"

Fu Hua's heart was pounding.

"No, no, he's already met my father, so it's normal for me to meet his family, right?"

....................

"Tell me, who is she?" (With great authority!)

Padofilis, who was sitting upright on the sofa, straightened up, trying to gain some courage in front of Fu Hua.

Before Lu Qiong could speak, Aponia came over with a plate of freshly cut fruit.

Placing the fruit platter in the center of the coffee table, Aponia smiled gently and said, "Alright, Pado, Qiong'er has grown up. It's perfectly normal for her to have friends of the opposite sex. Don't be so sensitive."

"Miss Hua, right? Don't be shy, just make yourself at home."

As she spoke, she handed him a cup of freshly brewed tea. "I heard from Qiong'er that you are from Shenzhou and probably don't like other drinks. But my tea-making skills may not be very good, so please forgive me."

Padofilis, standing to the side, had her lips almost pouting to the sky, clearly looking extremely dissatisfied (it was definitely not because Aponia hadn't made her tea or anything after all this time they'd spent together).

"No no no!"

Fu Hua accepted the gift with a flattered expression, saying, "You flatter me. I'm here as a guest, and it's already a trouble for you all..."
