Pei Xiao sat in Xi Xiangdong's car, trying to find topics to ease the awkward atmosphere.
"When did you change your car?"
"It's a company car. It's less likely to be discovered by the media when driving this way."
"Oh." Mr. Xi was indeed thoughtful.
Seeing him hesitating at the elevated intersection, she hurriedly said: "Come to my place, I have something to show you."
"good."
When getting out of the car, Xi Xiangdong helped her take down the gifts she received from the back seat. When she saw that in addition to the lilies she had given, there was also a bouquet of delicate roses, she couldn't help but frown.
Pei Xiao hurriedly explained: "This is a gift from Sister Meng and Gu Nanshun."
Xi Xiangdong glanced at her and asked, "Do you like roses?"
"It's okay..." She suddenly realized that Mr. Xi's eyes were staring at her with a cold look. She quickly shrank and changed her words: "Of course I like lilies more. Lily is so expensive. I have no reason not to like it, hehe, hehe.
hehe……"
She smiled so hard that her face almost froze, and Xi Xiangdong didn't say anything. Pei Xiao finally felt a little sour: "Mr. Xi... are you jealous?"
Xi Xiangdong pursed his lips into a straight line and said without any emotion: "What's the point of being jealous? I won't give you roses in such a tacky way."
"..."
He cares so much about roses and lilies, and wants to compete with each other like a child, yet he says he's not jealous!
Pei Xiao just cursed in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more refreshed she became. Since she was in a good mood, she didn't mind making Mr. Xi happy. So she handed the other two bouquets of flowers to Xi Xiangdong: "Take this,
I'll just take the lily."
Xi Xiangdong finally regained his composure. When he passed by the corridor, he casually let go of his hand and threw the bouquet of roses into the trash can.
(￣▽￣") Mr. Xi, you are too petty!
Pei Xiao couldn't help but protest: "You asked me to stir up the scandal with him. He gave me roses, and only gossip is written."
Xi Xiangdong leaned forward slightly and forced her into the corner: "So, you want to follow him now?"
Pei Xiao blushed and retorted: "I didn't..."
He played with the hair beside her ear: "I heard that some people want to focus on nothing for five years. Is it just talk?"
"No, I'm serious!" Pei Xiao hurriedly assured him, "In the past five years, apart from you and acting, I will not think about anything else!"
As soon as the words came out, she saw the narrow smile at the corner of his mouth. It turned out that he was just teasing her, but she anxiously revealed her thoughts. Her face was red and her ears were hot, and she stammered: "You, wait a minute..."
Then he ran into the house with his slippers on, fidgeted for a while, and then ran out waving his wrists.
"Look -"
Her slender wrist was pressed against his lean one, and the two seagull watches were placed side by side. The hands beat at the same frequency, as if each other's heartbeat and breathing were connected together.
Xi Xiangdong held her wrist, slowly bent down, and kissed her lightly from her forehead to the side of her face and neck.
…
The wind and snow outside the window have not stopped, Pei Xiao huddled in the quilt, leaning on Xi Xiangdong's chest.
He held her from behind with one hand, and she grabbed the other hand outside the quilt and put it together with her bare arm.
The two watches were close together, just like their people. Pei Xiao became more and more happy as he looked at them, and he couldn't get enough of them.
Xi Xiangdong glanced at the half of spring light on her chest exposed outside the quilt, and frowned: "Girl, aren't you cold?"
"It's not you." After she finished speaking, she leaned against the heat source again.
Xi Xiangdong smiled helplessly, took a prepared document bag from the bedside, and put it in front of her: "Merry Christmas."
