An hour later, when Pei Shanshan was getting ready to go to bed, she heard the doorbell ring.
She walked to the door and was wondering whether she had bought any express delivery recently or ordered takeout just now. When she opened the door, she saw Ruan Xingwan standing outside.
Pei Shanshan was a little confused: "Xingxing, why did you..."
Ruan Xingwan has the password to her home, so there is no need to ring the doorbell.
At this time, a head poked out from behind Ruan Xingwan. Jiang Chuning's eyes were red and swollen. She had obviously cried a lot. She lowered her head and whispered: "Sister Shanshan, I'm sorry..."
Pei Shanshan paused: "Are you okay?"
Jiang Chuning nodded: "I'm fine, but you..."
Pei Shanshan said: "As long as you're fine, don't mention the past anymore. Come in."
Even though Pei Shanshan said this, Jiang Chuning still couldn't forgive herself. He kept his head lowered and followed Ruan Xingwan closely.
Pei Shanshan sat down on the sofa and stretched: "I'm a little hungry. Have you eaten?"
Ruan Xingwan said: "No, I'll make whatever you want to eat."
Pei Shanshan holds her back: "You sit down and have a good rest, I'll just order takeout.
There's a Korean food shop nearby, I heard it's very delicious, I've been thinking about ordering it for a long time."
While she was talking, she picked up her phone and asked Ruan Xingwan in a low voice: "Would you like...to order for Mr. Zhou?"
Ruan Xingwan smiled: "Don't worry about him."
Pei Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll be relieved."
She asked Jiang Chuning again: "Ningning, what do you want to eat?"
Jiang Chuning was sitting there with a reserved look on her face. When she heard Pei Shanshan calling her, she quickly raised her head: "Huh?
I...I'm casual...no, no...I'm not hungry..."
Pei Shanshan said: "You haven't eaten all night, how can you not be hungry? Then I will just order whatever you want."
Ruan Xingwan reminded: "Don't order spicy food, you can't eat it."
Pei Shanshan leaned on the sofa and smacked her lips: "I know, I'll give you some and watch you eat. Isn't that enough to satisfy your cravings?"
Pei Shanshan was really choked up and ordered a lot at once, almost everything that could be ordered in the store.
By the time the takeout was delivered, the entire dining table could not fit.
Upon seeing this, Pei Shanshan was silent for a while and said: "How about... let's call Mr. Zhou over..."
Ruan Xingwan said: "It's okay, I'll just bring him some."
Without Zhou Cishen, they would feel more at ease.
Pei Shanshan took seven or eight food boxes to Ruan Xingwan in one go: "Bring these to Mr. Zhou."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
She said: "He can't eat so much."
Pei Shanshan thought so, thought for a while and then said: "Why don't you call Xiao Chen over?
I’ll ask Xu Wan again!”
Ever since, what was originally a late-night snack for three people suddenly turned into a dinner party.
As long as Ruan Chen has nothing to do and Ruan Xingwan asks him to come over for dinner, he will come directly.
Xu Wan, on the other hand, had just finished Zhou's celebration and was quite hungry. He was about to go have something to eat when he received a call from Pei Shanshan.
It was a little late now, and there was no traffic jam on the road. It didn't take long for Ruan Chen and Xu Wan to arrive together.
Pei Shanshan said: "Xingxing, don't let Mr. Zhou take it. Let him come directly, lest he say we are isolating him."
Ruan Xingwan smiled: "Okay."
When she returned to the next door, Zhou Cishen was on the phone. It looked like the call was from Auckland.
Ruan Xingwan didn't bother him, but went into the bedroom to change clothes.
When she came out again, Zhou Cishen had already finished making the phone call.
Ruan Xingwan walked towards him: "Shanshan..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, she was hugged and pressed into the sofa.
Ruan Xingwan looked at him and blinked: "What are you doing?"
Zhou Cishen put his arm around her waist, held her hand with the ring on it, put it in front of her, and whispered: "At this time, shouldn't you accompany me? Where else are you going?"
Ruan Xingwan smiled: "Don't I accompany you every day?"
"Can that be the same?"
"What's different?"
Zhou Cishen said: "Speaking of which, you seem to have forgotten one thing."
Ruan Xingwan asked in confusion: "What?"
Zhou Ci moved his eyes to her face and said slowly: "When will you come with me to get the certificate?"
Ruan Xingwan paused after hearing this and opened his mouth to say something. Zhou Cishen said, "Don't try to deny it. When we were in Tekapo, you agreed to my proposal."
"Although this is the case, but..."
Zhou Cishen said calmly: "Are you planning to choose an auspicious time in the zodiac?"
What he said reminded Ruan Xingwan, and she nodded: "For such a big event as getting a certificate, you have to choose the day, otherwise it will easily lead to an unhappy marriage."
"You're right. I've already checked the time. Tomorrow will be an auspicious day that only comes once in a century."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
Before she could refute, Zhou Cishen kissed her, easily pried open her teeth, and penetrated straight in.
Ruan Xingwan said nothing, thinking that the neighbor was still waiting for them to come over for dinner, so he pushed Zhou Cishen.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Cishen interpreted her rejection as a desire to welcome her in return. He strangled her wrist and pressed it above her head. His other hand reached into her waist and slowly moved upward.
Ruan Xingwan's breathing was unstable, and he even gasped for air.
The temperature in the room keeps rising, ambiguous and lingering.
Zhou Cishen finally moved away from her lips, kissing along the corners of her lips and gradually going downwards. His hot breath was filled with forbearing restraint.
Just when he was about to take the next step, the doorbell suddenly rang, interrupting everything that was happening in the house.
Ruan Xingwan also pushed the man away and sat up as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Pei Shanshan's voice came: "Xingxing, are you okay?"
Ruan Xingwan responded quickly: "Wait...wait a minute, you guys eat first, I'll be right over."
"Hurry up, the food is getting cold."
"good."
After Ruan Xingwan finished answering, he turned his head to meet the man's extremely dissatisfied gaze and said quickly: "I came here to ask you to eat, but you didn't give me a chance to speak at all."
Zhou Cishen: "..."
Ruan Xingwan tidied his clothes, stood up and said, "Okay, let's go over there. They are all waiting. Xiao Chen and Xu Wan are also here."
Zhou Cishen licked his teeth, looked down, and said in a hoarse voice: "How am I going to get there like this?"
Ruan Xingwan held back her laughter: "Then...just stay here. I will bring you some food later."
Zhou Ci gritted his teeth and watched her say word by word: "I'll wait."
Sensing the approaching danger, Ruan Xingwan quickly ran away.
Standing at the door, she took out her mobile phone, arranged her hair, patted her red cheeks, adjusted her breathing, and then entered the password.
Seeing that she was the only one here, Pei Shanshan asked, "Xingxing, where is Mr. Zhou?"
"He... isn't hungry, let's just eat and don't worry about him."
