Liu Xi blinked guardedly, looked at the people walking towards the restaurant, and subconsciously covered the plate of fried beef with garlic sprouts with her hands.

Then she saw that the corner of Chu Xiansheng's mouth was raised, and he smiled softly.

She took her hand away in shame and anger, and gave Chu Xiansheng a hard look, but the other party was not hurt at all, and walked to the table, half bent, and talked to Uncle Jiang:

"Uncle Jiang, I'm going to a reception tonight, so I need to trouble you to call a car for me."

Uncle Jiang smiled awkwardly. He looked at the angry Liu Xi, then at Chu Xiansheng, and nodded: "Okay, that...do you have dinner?"

This is the dish made by Liu Xi, Uncle Jiang didn't dare to make up his mind to let Chu Xiansheng eat it, and peeked at Liu Xi's expression after speaking.

Liu Xi pursed her lips unconsciously, her eyes widened, like an angry puffer fish, and she said loudly: "Just order this, if there is more, I won't eat it for you!"

She didn't twitch at all, she looked directly at Chu Xiansheng, her eyes were bright, and her cheeks turned pink with emotion.

But in Chu Xiansheng's eyes, the white light from the restaurant reflected Liu Xi's delicate skin, soft white and warm pink, with a vivid expression, like a fragile and beautiful porcelain.

So the corners of Chu Xiansheng's mouth were still raised, and he looked at her with a smile:

"If there's nothing extra, then I won't eat. I'll have to drink later. I'm not very good at drinking."

Chu Xiansheng finished speaking, but still did not walk away, his eyes lingered on the food, showing admiration, and said: "Miss Liu's dishes are really beautiful, and the taste must be very good, so amazing. The kitchen I don’t know anything about it.”

Being praised so directly, Liu Xi felt like a cat being stroked. She couldn't help raising the corner of her mouth, and almost laughed out loud. She quickly mobilized her strong self-control to stop the smile.

While expressing contempt and dislike with her eyes, she listened to the other person's words, and her heart skipped a beat: Drinking on an empty stomach makes you easy to get drunk.

A girl who is only 22 or [-] years old, going to the reception alone, if she gets drunk, it's not good...

She stole a glance at Chu Xiansheng.

As expected, this person was going to dress up for a reception. He was wearing a neutral dress with layers of pleats on his chest shirt, silk shorts that shone in the dark, and a low-key but stylish dress. Wearing a classic black coat, her hair is tied into a bunch, revealing a smooth forehead.

Dressed up like this, it is more dazzling than the way it looks in the guest room today.

Looking good is really doing whatever you want.

Uncle Jiang has already started to smooth things over: "Okay, you go over there and find something to cushion your stomach..."

"Only half a bowl of rice is allowed."

Liu Xi suddenly made a sound, interrupting Uncle Jiang's words.

She still glared at Chu Xiansheng angrily, but didn't say any more, took the serving chopsticks next to her, and moved each dish a little to the side of the plate, dividing it into a large portion and a small portion.

Chu Xiansheng watched her movements, narrowed his eyes with a smile, and said very gently: "Thank you so much, then I will not be polite."

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around very neatly, walked into the kitchen in a few steps, quickly filled the rice and brought it out with chopsticks.

Uncle Jiang was very discerning, seeing Chu Xiansheng coming over with a bowl, he hurried out by himself: "Then I'll call a taxi."

Chu Xiansheng sat down at the dining table, sitting on the left hand side of Liu Xi, obediently filling the small portions that Liu Xi set aside.

First, I picked up a chopstick of shredded beef and chewed it carefully in my mouth.

Immediately, she opened her eyes wide in surprise, showing an expression of enjoyment, with joy in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and quickly took a big mouthful of rice.

Liu Xi had been peeking at her movements, seeing that she had swallowed a small piece of lipstick on her mouth, so she quickly resisted the thought of reminding her, and lowered her head to eat her own.

As she ate, the corners of her mouth curled up involuntarily.

A little proud.

"These dishes are so delicious, are they your specialty dishes in Ying Country?"

Chu Xiansheng suddenly spoke to her.

Eating at the same table, feeling temporarily hostile, Liu Xi buried her head in the rice bowl and said in a low voice:

"No."

"Such delicious food is not considered a specialty. I really envy your roommate in Yingguo."

"well enough."

"By the way, what is your specialty? I don't know if I have a chance to see it?"

"……Why should I tell you."

After finishing a bowl of rice, Liu Xi was already full, but she hadn't finished the rest of the dishes, so she looked at those dishes in embarrassment.

Those who cook hate their food being wasted the most. Uncle Jiang probably won't come back to eat again, and he really can't eat it...

Liu Xi looked at the people on the side.

Chu Xiansheng grilled rice in full swing, because there were too few small dishes, she needed two mouthfuls of rice for each dish, and she ate up all her lipstick, so she had no time to pay attention to Liu Xi's gaze.

He obviously looks like an elite, but why does he still feel... a bit pitiful.

Liu Xi pushed the plate towards her, and stood up pretending to be indifferent:

"I'm stuffed."

Chu Xiansheng secretly smiled, raised his head on purpose and asked:

"There are so many dishes left, what should you do if you don't eat?"

Liu Xi tried her best to look ahead, put on a calm expression, waved her big hand and said:

"you eat."

After speaking, she stepped out of the restaurant at a faster pace, for fear of being found with an annoyed expression.

Don't dare to think about this dinner.

How come the good food that I worked so hard to make cheap in the end is the most hated person in this house?

What a mystery...

Liu Xi was too lazy to go back to her room, she sat on the sofa in the living room and played with her mobile phone. The fluffy sofa cushions felt like animal fur. This was her favorite place downstairs.

After playing for a while, Chu Xiansheng's voice suddenly came:

"Thank you for the hospitality, I'll go first."

Liu Xi probed to see, a few steps away, Chu Xiansheng was standing there, carrying a small leather bag, reapplying lipstick.

A red Italian brand lipstick, the small golden round tube was pinched by white and slender fingers, and it was drawn across the lips, leaving long marks of wonderful color.

Because she studied oil painting, Liu Xi is very sensitive to color, and thinks the color of this lipstick is really beautiful.

Of course, the lip shape of the two painted lips is also perfect, comparable to a lip model, with moderate thickness, plump and rounded, with naturally raised lip tips, always showing an unpredictable smile.

When Liu Xi realized it, she had already been staring at Chu Xiansheng's lips for almost a minute.

Chu Xiansheng just stood there and let her stare at her. After putting on her lipstick, she even took out a small mirror to look at it, but she refused to leave.

Liu Xi came back to her senses, moved her throat unnaturally, and hummed a word in a low voice:

"Ah."

Chu Xiansheng was very obedient, and when he heard this word, he smiled and walked towards the door.

Liu Xi sat on the sofa, always feeling that something was wrong.

But regardless, she turned on her phone and started searching for positive red lipstick.

Even if she wanted to, she would never ask Chu Xiansheng's color number, absolutely!impossible!

That night, Liu Xi slept very late, and she didn't know why, even though she checked all of her Weibo and WeChat, she still couldn't fall asleep.

After midnight, there was a soft knock on the door.Uncle Jiang is getting old, so he probably didn't hear it. No one opened the door. The person outside the door locked it with his fingerprint code and opened it to come in.

Liu Xi involuntarily pricked up her ears and listened carefully for a while, but she didn't hear anything.

Looks like he came back safely.

Inexplicably relieved, she turned off the light and got into bed, having a good night's sleep.

After a long time of life with day and night upside down, suddenly one day after waking up, while eating the porridge and side dishes carefully prepared by Aunt Zhang, Liu Xi found that she hadn't gone out for a long time.

At most, she would go for a walk in the small garden behind the villa and feel the sunshine. Except for these few people at home, she had never seen anyone.

Liu Xi thought for a while and asked Aunt Zhang, "Auntie, are you going to the supermarket today?"

Aunt Zhang shook her head: "No, I've already been to the vegetable market in the morning, and you were still asleep at that time, so you don't need to go out today, you have to clean at home."

Liu Xi nodded slowly, and decided to go out for a stroll by herself when the sun was good in the afternoon.

"Then I'll go out by myself in the afternoon, I want to go around."

Aunt Zhang raised her head immediately, with a surprised expression on her face: "Xiaoxi, you have finally figured it out. I have already said that it is not good to be bored at home. Do you have any little sisters to accompany you out?"

Liu Xi: "I've been in Ying Country for high school and university, I don't have many friends here, it's fine, I can just go out by myself."

Aunt Zhang: "That's fine, that's fine."

After Liu Xi finished speaking, she lowered her head and drank the porridge. She lost her gaze and didn't notice Aunt Zhang's movements.

Aunt Zhang secretly took out her mobile phone, and used very unskilled one-finger Zen movements to press it back and forth. After several presses, a simple and honest smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she looked at Liu Xi lovingly.

Liu Xi didn't notice anything, and went upstairs to continue her homework after eating.

Staying at home every day, she is almost growing hairy, and she is a little excited when she thinks of going outside to receive fresh sunlight and perform photosynthesis.

Back then when she was in Yingguo, she often went outdoors to sketch with a portfolio on her back.Looks like it's time to buy another painting set and keep it at home.

She had only experienced the customs and customs of Huacheng and the style of the city when she was in elementary school and junior high school, and now she has almost forgotten it, so she should go and take a closer look.

Liuxi's afternoon nap was awakened by the sun shining on the pillow. When I woke up, I looked at the time. It was three or four o'clock, which happened to be the warmest and most beautiful time in winter.

She rummaged through the clothes in the closet, looked at them for a while, and felt that it was time to go shopping.

She came back from Ying Country in a hurry before, so she didn't bring much clothes. These were bought by Aunt Zhang for her. It's taste... It's hard to describe, but the function of keeping out the cold is enough.

Holding a bright red down jacket, she couldn't laugh or cry.The dress was so thick that it reached to her ankles, and it was still silhouetted. She put it on and looked like a big red lantern hanging high.

After searching for a long time, she finally chose the most low-key black short suede jacket, paired with simple jeans and a white woolen sweater, found a light gray scarf and went out casually.

"Aunt Zhang, I'm going out."

"Hey! Xiaoxi, you must have fun. It doesn't matter if you come back late, I will leave the door for you!"

"No need for Aunt Zhang, I'm just going for a walk and I'll be back soon."

Half an hour later, Liu Xi realized that every word she said to Aunt Zhang was a flag.
