Spring River Chasing the Moon

Xu Zhiye Apartment.

After breakfast, Xu Zhi asked Nan Qiuyue to watch a movie in the living room. He went to the master bedroom bathroom to wash up and change into formal clothes.

Nan Qiuyue sat obediently on the sofa and turned on the TV to watch.

But her thoughts were involuntarily drawn to the closed door of the master bedroom.

When she thought of Xu Zhi washing and changing clothes in the bathroom behind the door, Nan Qiuyue felt her face getting hotter and hotter. She used her little hands to fan herself, trying to relieve her red and hot face, but it was of no use.

Nan Qiuyue shook her head and patted her face, trying to get rid of the inappropriate thoughts in her mind, but it was useless.

She had no choice but to go to the kitchen, open the refrigerator, find a bottle of refrigerated mineral water, unscrew the cap and drink it.

After drinking half a bottle in one breath, Nan Qiuyue successfully got rid of the inexplicable imaginations she had just had.

"What's wrong? Thirst?"

Just as she was holding the remaining half bottle of water and preparing to close the refrigerator door, Xu Zhiye's voice suddenly sounded behind her, scaring Nan Qiuyue so much that she trembled all over.

She turned around and found that Xu Zhi had come out of the bedroom at some point and was now standing in front of her, only half a step away from each other.

Nan Qiuyue took a step back unconsciously. Seeing that her head was about to hit the half-open refrigerator door, Xu Zhi quickly reached out to protect her head.

The two bodies moved a little closer, Xu Zhiye's hands protected her. Nan Qiuyue felt as if she was held in Xu Zhiye's arms, and she was a little afraid to move.

"We just had breakfast, and the weather is getting colder now, so don't drink anything ice cold."

Xu Zhiye leaned down slightly and took the ice water from Nan Qiuyue's hand. In an instant, the distance between the two people became closer. Nan Qiuyue seemed to be able to feel the warmth on Xu Zhiye's face and his faint breathing in her ear.

What Nan Qiuyue didn't know was that Xu Zhi also saw her red ears and smiled secretly.

After getting the mineral water bottle, Xu Zhi took a step back, turned around, poured half a cup of warm water for Nan Qiuyue and placed it in front of her.

"If you're thirsty, drink something warm."

Xu Zhi also gave gentle instructions, but Nan Qiuyue was no longer in the right state at this moment.

Nan Qiuyue just mechanically obeyed his voice, then slowly walked forward, picked up the water cup and took a sip.

"I have to go to the company this afternoon. Do you want to go home or go back to school?"

Although the project was signed successfully, there were still many problems to come. Xu Zhi had to go back to the company and hold a meeting with Lin Yi and others to continue to advance the work.

"I...I'm going home..."

Nan Qiuyue held the water cup to her lips and spoke incoherently, but Xu Zhi could hear it clearly.

"Then let's go out for lunch later. I'll take you home first, and then we'll go to the company."

Xu Zhi also suggested.

"Let's just eat something at your house. I'll cook lunch. My cooking is delicious."

Nan Qiuyue didn't want to go out to eat. No matter where she went, there would always be other people there. She wanted to stay alone with Xu Zhi for a while.

Xu Zhi also looked at Nan Qiuyue's eager look and followed her.

"Then we have to go to the supermarket downstairs first."

There is a large supermarket at the entrance of the community, and the underground garage leads directly to the basement floor of the supermarket.

"Okay, I'll get my phone and go now."

Nan Qiuyue could not hide her excitement. Shopping in the supermarket together was something she had always imagined was one of the things that couples must do. She didn't expect that she could do it with Xu Zhi today.

It was a weekday, and it was morning again. There weren't many people in the supermarket. A few older aunts and uncles were picking out products on sale in the vegetable section.

Nan Qiuyue thought about her specialty dish, turned to look at Xu Zhi and asked him.

"For lunch, I'll make grilled wings, blanched choy sum, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and winter melon and clam soup, okay?"

Nan Qiuyue chose a few home-cooked dishes, and she had to perform well and not make any mistakes.

"I also can."

Xu Zhi had no objection and began to select the necessary ingredients according to her menu.

Nan Qiuyue stood by, watching Xu Zhiye pushing the shopping cart and picking out ingredients, and secretly took a picture of him with her mobile phone.

When the two of them returned upstairs with their things, it was almost ten o'clock. Nan Qiuyue asked Xu Zhiye to go and rest for a while and not to watch her in the living room. His house had an open kitchen, and if Xu Zhiye was in the living room, he would be able to see her every move directly. Nan Qiuyue felt that she would be stressed.

After being repeatedly refused entry to the kitchen by Nan Qiuyue, Xu Zhi also understood the little girl's thoughts, obediently listened to her and went to the study, where he could hold an online meeting first.

Nan Qiuyue started marinating the chicken wings in the kitchen, and then processed the ingredients.

It was almost eleven o'clock. With the sound of "ding" from the rice cooker, Nan Qiuyue's last winter melon and clam soup was successfully cooked. She put on kitchen gloves and brought the soup to the dining table. She called out to Xu Zhi to come and eat, but Xu Zhi in the study did not respond.

Nan Qiuyue walked to the study door and knocked a few times, but Xu Zhi still did not respond.

Nan Qiuyue thought Xu Zhi was also asleep, so she quietly pressed the door handle and prepared to go in and call him to eat.

However, when Nan Qiuyue opened the door, she found that Xu Zhi was also sitting at the desk, facing the computer, and was not sleeping.

"Why didn't you respond when I asked you to eat? I thought you were resting."

Nan Qiuyue was wearing kitchen gloves and the floral apron she had just bought. She walked to Xu Zhiye and spoke.

It was not until she arrived next to Xu Zhiye that she saw that Xu Zhiye was on a video call on the computer. On the other side of the call, there were seven or eight people sitting in the conference room. Without any warning, Nan Qiuyue looked them face to face.

"what……"

Nan Qiuyue was startled by the person on the computer. She immediately covered her face and took a step back. Only then did she see that Xu Zhiye was wearing headphones. No wonder he didn't respond when she called him outside the door just now.

"Why didn't you remind me?"

Nan Qiuyue was so embarrassed that she whispered to Xu Zhiye behind the computer.

Xu Zhi also took off his headphones. He didn't react and had no time to remind her. She just walked over to him.

"It's okay, don't worry about it."

Xu Zhi also looked at Nan Qiuyue with a doting expression, and then said to the person on the screen.

"The meeting is suspended and will continue in the afternoon." He turned off the computer and stood up.

Nan Qiuyue was still thinking about the eye contact just now. Seven or eight pairs of eyes were looking at her at the same time. She could even feel the gossipy gazes of the two people in front of her.

"Were the people who just had the meeting Lan Jing's colleagues? Was Brother Lin Yi there too?"

Nan Qiuyue had just seen the faces of two or three people in front of her. Lin Yi was not there. She hoped in her heart that Lin Yi was not there, otherwise it would be very embarrassing to see him next time.

Unfortunately, the more she didn't want something to happen, the more it happened.

"They are all Lanjing employees. Lin Yi is sitting in the back."

Xu Zhiye's words made Nan Qiuyue completely give up.

"All right……"

Nan Qiuyue lowered her head and secretly decided not to go to Lanjing again this month.
