It wasn't until the aroma of dinner reached her nostrils that Ning Xiaotong climbed out of the pile of games and wiped her growling stomach, "Frank, it's time to eat."
Frank put down the game controller and said, "Xiao Tong, I didn't expect you to be so good at playing games."
Everyone likes to hear compliments, and Ning Xiaotong is no exception, "That's right, I practiced in school."
"We'll continue after dinner."
"No problem." Ning Xiaotong agreed readily.
Playing games with two people is indeed more exciting than playing alone.
Because she had been sitting for too long, when Ning Xiaotong stood up from the bed, her legs suddenly felt sore. Frank was about to reach out to help him when he caught a glimpse of someone standing at the door.
Sure enough, Huangfu Lin grabbed Ning Xiaotong's waist with lightning speed, and held Ning Xiaotong firmly with both hands.
He stared blankly at the handsome and extraordinary face above his head, with familiar eyebrows and eyes, and a hint of sadness slipped through his eyes, and he quickly wanted to stand up.
Huangfu Lin looked at Ning Xiaotong's evasive eyes, and a hint of disappointment quickly passed through his eyes. When he raised his eyes again, there was already calm inside.
Help Ning Xiaotong sit firmly on the edge of the bed.
Slowly lifting Ning Xiaotong's numb legs, she saw the fair and smooth skin. She put more force on her hands, but just right, and kneaded them slowly.
Ning Xiaotong wanted to take her leg back, but Huangfu Lin held it firmly and did not allow her to move back even an inch.
The atmosphere became quiet for a moment, and even Frank, who was always lively, stood aside and watched the scene quietly.
Seeing that she couldn't get away, Ning Xiaotong lowered her eyes, not daring to look into Huangfu Lin's eyes.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Huangfu Lin half-kneeling, kneading himself carefully, and was stunned.
There was a slight tremor in his calm eyes, but in the blink of an eye, he returned to being indifferent.
Switching to the other foot, about ten minutes later, Huangfu Lin slowly stood up and said calmly, "Next time, don't play so crazy and not take care of your body." Then he gave Frank a warning look, turned around and left the room.
Door, leaving only a silhouette behind.
Seeing that figure disappear, Ning Xiaotong fell down on the bed dejectedly. What should she do? She clearly warned herself that she must never have anything to do with him again, but his serious look instantly defeated her persistence.
Frank looked at Ning Xiaotong, who was a little depressed for a moment, and said, "Xiaotong, I'm sorry, I was too involved and forgot that you are still a pregnant woman." Pregnant women should not do one thing for a long time. It was his negligence.
No wonder Huangfu would look at him with that murderous look.
Ning Xiaotong shook her head nonchalantly and sat up slowly, "Let's go, it's time to eat."
There was no sign of Huangfu Lin at the dinner table.
Looking at that empty place, my heart felt an inexplicable feeling of loss.
Before, no matter how much I disliked seeing him,
He would insist on waiting for her at the dining table, but today she didn't see him, and her heart suddenly felt empty.
But finally one day, the effect I wanted was achieved, but my heart couldn't stop feeling heartache.
Mother, what should I do?
I promised you that I would not be with him, but I really can't forget him.
The meal was tasteless.
"Xiaotong, what's the matter? Today's rice is not to your liking?" Frank couldn't help but ask as he saw Ning Xiaotong listlessly picking at the rice grains in the bowl.
Ma Zhao, who was standing next to her, immediately said, "Miss Ning, what do you want to eat? I'll tell the kitchen to make it right away."
