"It's been a while, and since you were sleeping so soundly, I didn't wake you up."
"Kumawa..."
Zhou Jing closed his laptop and looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost late at night, and he didn't understand why Jessica came to him alone at this time.
Jessica has been quite careful about this aspect since she was hit by the crystal, for fear of causing misunderstanding, even though the crystal has already expressed in secret that she doesn't care.
Jessica naturally understood the questioning look in Zhou Jing's eyes, and was about to explain her purpose when the doorbell suddenly rang, so Zhou Jing quickly signaled her to be silent, and then went over and opened the door.
"Brother Zhou Jing, you're back, I..." Wu Shixun stood outside the door and was about to lean forward to walk inside, but was pulled back by Park Chanyeol.
Zhou Jing obviously had no intention of letting him in, which made Wu Shixun confused. He had never encountered such a situation before when he came to Zhou Jing's place for a late-night snack.
Isn't it possible that Crystal is here? Wu Shixun has bumped into him several times before. At first Crystal would hide in the bedroom because of shyness, but later she became numb. Anyway, Wu Shixun is a relative of her own age, so there is no need to see him outside.
That's why Wu Shixun was puzzled. However, when he followed Park Chanyeol's gaze and glanced at the floor, he immediately realized that it was not Crystal but other women who were cooperating.
"Sehun, Chanyeol, it's not very convenient today, why don't I prepare a late night snack for you later."
Zhou Jing thought Wu Shixun and the others were here for a midnight snack again, but Park Chanyeol hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"Ani, Brother Zhou Jing, we have an event tomorrow morning, so we really can't eat late night snacks, otherwise your face will be swollen."
"Then you..." This time it was Zhou Jing who was confused. It was impossible for them to come over to chat at night.
】
"Brother Zhou Jing, I originally made an appointment to meet your relatives and fans tomorrow, but we have a temporary schedule and will have to catch an early morning flight to China later, so I came here to say something to you and send Hamida off."
Wu Sehun and Park Chanyeol bowed to Zhou Jing to apologize, and at the same time handed the bag in their hands to Zhou Jing,
"These are some of our signed merchandise. Please pass them on to that fan on your behalf. I'm really sorry. If we have a chance next time, we can treat her to dinner."
"Kenchana, you don't have to be so polite. After all, it's for work." Zhou Jing patted Wu Shixun and Park Chanyeol's shoulders respectively, then took the bags and said with a smile,
"How about I go prepare some midnight snacks? You guys have to catch a flight later and you'll be hungry."
"Ani, there's really no need. If Director Zhao finds out, he will be scolded. Brother Zhou Jing, please go ahead and we'll leave."
After Park Chanyeol finished speaking, he picked up Wu Sehun and puffed out his cigarette before running away, leaving Zhou Jing standing at the door feeling confused.
Busy? Who said he was busy? These little bastards are all naughty. Zhou Jing smiled, shook his head, closed the door and returned to the living room. What he saw was a rather interesting scene.
I saw that Jessica had already hid in the kitchen, but that was all. She actually poked her head out to look outside from time to time.
Zhou Jing was speechless. Does she think others are blind, or is she afraid that she won't be able to find her? If she wants to hide, just hide. What kind of fuss is this, playing hide and seek?
When Jessica saw Wu Shixun and others leaving, she breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the kitchen, looking shocked, without any aura of the Iceberg Queen.
"I said Director Zheng, it's not that serious. It's like a large-scale rape scene. Why don't you hide in the closet? Haha..." Zhou Jing was so amused by Jessica's actions that he couldn't stop laughing.
"It was too sudden and I didn't have time..." Jessica was probably still in shock and didn't react for a moment, but soon she realized that she was being teased by Zhou Jing, so the violence card came online quickly, and she didn't even think about raising her hand.
He gave Zhou Jing a hard blow,
"Ah, stop talking nonsense, what are you trying to catch?" Although Jessica was furious, her face still turned red when she mentioned these two words, which forced her to stop and take a moment.
"I'm not worried that those two juniors will see me appearing in your apartment in the middle of the night. What a bad impact it would have if word spread."
"Ha, it turns out you know it too." Zhou Jing rubbed the area where Jessica had hit him, curled his lips and sat back on the sofa.
"I haven't asked you yet, why do you come to me so late at night? Does Xiujing know?"
However, it was okay not to mention the crystal. After Zhou Jinggang finished speaking, Jessica suddenly became angry again, "What does that damn girl know? She can just be lazy at home and she wants me to help her arrange everything. I'm really angry, huh...
"
What was the arrangement? Zhou Jing was not sure, so he looked up at Jessica who was jumping, and without saying anything, the other party took out a lot of bags from the corner and put them on the coffee table.
"What is this?" Zhou Jing became more and more puzzled. He pointed at the thing in front of him and asked Jessica to explain.
When Jessica saw this, she slowly sat next to Zhou Jing, and then took out the things from the bag one by one and showed them to him.
"I heard from Xiujing that your relative is going back to China tomorrow, and this Doudin is so ignorant that he doesn't even know how to prepare some souvenirs."
"This pair of sunglasses was designed by me, so I gave it to your relative."
"Although this bag is not a luxury brand, I think it is very good. His father will probably like it. There are also these cosmetics..."
"Uncle left in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to give him the red ginseng health supplements I bought, so I had to ask your relative to deliver them to him. It's really rude..."
Listening to Jessica's ramble, Zhou Jing couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart. It was obvious that Jessica had put a lot of thought into these souvenirs, so how could Zhou Jing not be moved by them.
"Xiuyan, Kumawa, thank you for your hard work..."
Zhou Jing thanked Jessica from the bottom of his heart for her kindness, but he didn’t know that the other party was stunned when he heard it, and then replied in a rather lonely tone,
"If you don't work hard, your life will be hard..."
Hiss... This little milky sound made Zhou Jing instantly feel bitter. He even felt the urge to pull Jessica into his arms for comfort for the first time, and Jessica seemed to have the same expectation.
A pair of pretty eyes stared straight at Zhou Jing, their eyes were tired and weak but also filled with a little resentment, as if to tell Zhou Jing, what are you... waiting for? Come hug me and comfort me.
But can Zhou Jing do that? Of course the answer is no, so when Jessica saw that Zhou Jing never made any move, Jessica began to feel extremely lost and disappointed.
The two of them looked at each other silently, and the living room was silent. After a long time, Zhou Jing sighed and stood up and said softly to Jessica:
"Are you hungry? Let me make you something to eat."
"Inside..."
Jessica nodded slightly. In fact, she could see that Zhou Jing was impulsive at that moment, but he restrained himself in the end.
So Jessica understood that even if Zhou Jing felt sorry for her, he would not betray Crystal and cross that bottom line. Making a midnight snack was the only way he could think of to comfort her at the moment.
Although she was still disappointed, Jessica could understand Zhou Jing's embarrassment, not to mention that he really felt sorry for her. Just based on this, Jessica was satisfied.
Who made her choose to embark on this path? Giving up love because of career, just like what Zhou Jing once told her, you can't have your cake and eat it too...
"What to eat?"
"Hand-Pulled Noodle..."
"Don't make trouble, you can't get over this joke, can you?"
"Hmph...that's so stingy, you can figure it out yourself."
"Well, let's have fried tofu with vermicelli and eggs in water. Xiujing likes this very much. How about it?"
"I can do either."
"Jinjia? Then I want to add cucumber shreds, hehe..."
"Ah, you dare..."
"I'm just teasing you."
Of course Zhou Jing knew that Jessica hated cucumbers the most, so he deliberately made fun of her just to adjust the atmosphere, because he obviously felt that Jessica was a little sad, alas...
Next, Jessica turned into Lying Sika again, but she did not fall asleep, but looked at the busy back of the man in the kitchen and entered a state of relaxation.
She was imagining that after a busy day, her loved ones would immediately come home to take care of her. It felt so good to be so relaxed and enjoy the warmth. No wonder little Daijing ran here when she had nothing to do.
This made Jessica suddenly feel strong regret, so she climbed off the sofa in a mysterious way, and then tiptoed toward the kitchen.
However, how could this news be hidden from Zhou Jing, but he mistakenly thought that Jessica was hungry, so he couldn't help but come in when he smelled the fragrance and wanted to eat first, but...
A hot and delicate body pressed against his back, and lotus-white arms wrapped around his waist and hugged him tightly.
This shocked Zhou Jing, and he subconsciously wanted to open the jade arms that were crossed in front of his abdomen, but as the lazy sound of his little breasts murmuring in sleep came, Zhou Jing suddenly froze.
"Oppa, I'm so tired, please let me lean on you for a while, just a minute, okay?"
The vermicelli soup on the stove was still boiling, and the white eggs were rolling up and down in the soup. Zhou Jing hesitated for a moment and finally couldn't bear to push Jessica away.
