Chapter 8

He possesses both a sense of possession and a desire to protect her, yet it is unrelated to love

Chen Die's little thoughts gradually drifted away

He strode over and lifted the roll-up curtain to enter

Hmm?

No! What is she explaining to him in such a nervous manner when she has a clear conscience?

Exit the restaurant

She looked up

Wen Liang did not hear clearly: "What?"

Chen Die blinked and said, "Hmm?"

When happy, one might occasionally utter sweet words that make the heart race, but when angry, one will completely disregard you, as if there is no relationship between you at all

The vehicle drove down a narrow path when Liang suddenly spoke up: "Stop here."

"Don't go out with those worthless friends of yours and end up in the police station again—" He suddenly laughed, with a swaggering attitude, "Let's see if I will still come to your rescue."

... ... ? ''

Wen Liang, tall and slender, was signing his name in the book with a bent back

However, watching Liang eat is actually quite appetizing; he eats with large bites, unlike some young masters who are more refined.

Wen Liang is very quiet when eating and does not like to talk

Soon, the owner of the small shop brought over four steaming bowls of dishes, consisting of two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and one soup. These were the most ordinary home-cooked meals, prepared in the simplest way, with a thin layer of oil floating on top.

"Little girl," he said slowly

Just now, the thoughts of a person lying on the table, wanting to disregard everything and immediately break up with him, all dissipated in that one phrase filled with the warmth of life: "Are you hungry"

Those buried deep within, the little feelings are like the bubbles in carbonated drinks, continuously surging outward

She has a pair of very beautiful eyes, bright and captivating, with sparkling pupils that seem to radiate a halo even in this dilapidated little shop

Chen Die picked up the bag and walked out

That feeling of irritation has surprisingly vanished

Chen Die pressed her lips together firmly, leaned forward to look at the menu, and quickly ordered four dishes

... ...

Upon asking, one becomes clear-headed; pride and self-respect resurface, as individuals like Liang probably have no idea what it means to truly like someone

Wen Liang did not like girls who cried all the time, so she gradually stopped crying. Wen Liang preferred girls with a bit of personality, and without realizing it, she started to resemble him more and more, but only acted delicate and pretentious in front of him

"No," Chen Die waved her hand and smiled politely at her, "I am just afraid of gaining weight; the food is very delicious"

Wen Liang: "Who just said they were hungry, yet only ate this little."

On that day, after attending the event in the morning, he returned to the company and dealt with the matter concerning Qu Huan. It appeared that he was confident and composed, but in reality, he had been preparing for a long time

It was as if, when Wen Liang brought her into this restaurant on the first day she arrived in this city, the first day she met him, and the first time he took her to eat, she could instantly cast aside all her grievances and heartaches.

Hear the beam

Chen Die only felt that her ankles, which had been grasped by him, were all hot, and her heart was beating both fast and heavily

"Wen Liang?" Chen Die called out to him

Zhu Qicong parked the car by the roadside

The journey was very quiet

The more uncontrollable and difficult to restrain it is, the more it is love

Only a madman like him can never tolerate others touching his belongings

Chen Die's hair was blown up, and that one light and airy sentence was also drowned within it

Chen Dieyi felt embarrassed at the thought that she had almost been brought to tears by Liang's simple question, "Are you hungry?" She pretended not to hear and lowered her head to open her phone

She took a deep breath and asked, "Will you like me?"

Chen Die and Wen Liang stood in front of the crosswalk, facing a red light

She nodded instinctively: "Mm."

Just as Chen Die was about to tie her shoelaces, someone grabbed her by the shoulders and pulled her aside a few steps. Then, Liang squatted down in front of her and lifted her leg.

He raised his eyes, the depths of which were pitch black, and the scar at the corner of his brow appeared even more piercing.

Chen Diexin's heart raced, she blinked her eyes, her ankle was grasped in his hand, the pads of his fingers were somewhat warm and a bit rough

The restaurant owner’s wife returned from taking out the trash and noticed that she had not touched her chopsticks. She cautiously asked, "Is the dish not to your liking?"

Wen Liang looked at her for a while longer

Placed in a chaotic business district, it can even be described as devoted

Wen Liang has been too carefree and too arrogant in this relationship

Arrogant, cold-hearted, ruthless, and capricious in emotions

He leaned back, resting against the chair's backrest, turned his head to look at her, and then raised his hand to tug at her face, pulling it outward.

Well

He straightened up, glanced at Chen Die with no expression, and quickly walked out the door

This place

Love has never been spontaneous

At that time, Chen Die said she did not want to lose herself because of Wen Liang

Chen Die lost his balance, his body leaning backward, and he sat down heavily on the green park bench

Wen Liang lowered her gaze; today she wore a pair of denim shorts, which rode up slightly at the edges when she squatted down, revealing her slender and fair legs, somewhat eye-catching

From the very first words "Will you come with me?" that he heard from Liang, Chen Die's nod in response indicated that to him, Chen Die had already become a mere accessory that brought him a sense of peace and assurance

Wen Liang said casually: "She is merely a female companion attending the event; you yourself are unwilling to accompany me."

She lowered her head to look at the hand of Wen Liang hanging by her side, and then her peripheral vision caught sight of the laces of her little white shoes coming undone

"Then you can watch me eat," Wen Liang said naturally

It is already quite late, and there are no entertainment venues nearby. The night is very quiet, with very few vehicles passing by on the road

Wen Liang stood on the steps, biting a cigarette between his lips, his hand partially cupping it as he lit it.

He pinched her cheek again and said, "You have not been very honest lately"

Not forgotten

Chen Die suddenly felt a pang in her nose

The woman let out two soft sounds and picked up the child who was playing nearby, walking into the kitchen.

... ...

Chen Die forcefully buried her head in the crook of her arm, when suddenly she heard the police officer from earlier shout: "Chen Die!"

I haven't even had dinner, and at this moment, I truly feel exhausted

The audible beam is always that way in front of her

Zhu Qicong glanced around and did not see any restaurant at all, hesitating for a moment: "Is it here?"

Chen Die crouched down

It was probably when I was still in high school

The sports car, accompanied by a piercing engine roar, sped past on the road

She shook her head: "It's nothing"

"Are you hungry?" he asked淡淡.

She unconsciously wanted to retract her legs, but was pulled back by Wen Liang

How much she enjoys smelling Liang

After the college entrance examination ended, Chen Die climbed onto his bed, and after their relationship became ambiguous, Wen Liang seemed to have stopped calling her that.

I am full

Chen Die got out of the car, surveyed the surroundings, and suddenly felt his heart pound heavily twice.

rather unambitious

She can no longer recall the last time Liang called her like that.

The light from the streetlamp falls down like a piece of jade

... ...

The dark eyelashes of the closed eyes captured the dim yellow light that fell from above.

Wen Liang released her ankle, turned around, and walked back to the crosswalk.

The proprietress, upon observing the attire of the two individuals before her, could tell that they were either wealthy or of high status. Their presence in her modest restaurant inevitably made her feel somewhat constrained, fearing that she might offend them by appearing negligent.

After he finished speaking, he took down the cigarette and walked down the steps, pinching it between his fingers.

These are all homemade dishes, and this little green vegetable is grown in our own backyard. The proprietress wiped her hands on her apron and said cautiously, "You all try it and see if you can get used to it"

The smile at the corners of the mouth is suppressed, yet it emerges from the eyes.

"Can that even be called a beauty?" Wen Liang raised an eyebrow

Having finished a bowl of rice in a whirlwind manner, and taken a couple of sips of soup, he then got up to pay the bill

She was being affected and pretentious, and Wen Liang frowned and scolded her. She deliberately provoked him to anger, so Wen Liang simply left her alone to calm down

Wen Liang took a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder beside him and handed them to Chen Die, lightly thanking the proprietress.

Just like when Chen Die, in a daze, climbed onto his bed in the middle of the night

As soon as she opened it, Wen Liang pulled her away, his large hand gripping her wrist and yanking her onto his lap: "Stay with me and eat."

Chen Die felt three question marks appear on his forehead, accompanied by the phrase: Do you have something to discuss

He put down his chopsticks after only a few bites

She walked back to his side

Courage is rare and precious, but it is only sufficient to support a single occasion

After finishing, she forcefully suppressed the smile that was about to reach her lips and said, "This is the dish we had that time."

Chen Die was momentarily taken aback and could only explain, "Did I not tell you? Fang Jiaomao is my high school classmate. There is a class reunion today, and since I had nothing to do, I went. It was completely unexpected that I ended up in the police station; you know that well enough."

Forgot?" Wen Liang glanced at her, then looked back at the menu, "This is the first restaurant I brought you to."

A pale blue smoke rose from his forehead, appearing and disappearing. He exhaled a puff of smoke and turned to look at Chen Die

Parking is prohibited on this side of the road, and Zhu Qicong parked his car on the opposite side of the road

Chen Die quickly reacted, turned his head, and mocked him: "You are still with the beautiful woman yourself!"

But Chen Die knows it is not that way

Although many people outside say that Wen Liang and the one hidden at home are very affectionate, otherwise they would not have maintained this relationship for so many years, and despite the presence of many beauties, he has never shown any favor towards other women

Chen Die quickly followed him in

She has indeed changed too much for the sake of Wen Liang

Chen Die was taken aback

In response to this, Wen Liang merely let out a light scoff

"How come you came here to eat?" Chen Die asked him while sitting beside him

He gently furrowed his brow

Chen Die suddenly recalled that on the day she mentioned to Xia Ying her intention to break up, Xia Ying had advised her that she felt her boyfriend treated her quite well and that there was no need to break up directly

Having already jumped from the red light to the green light, it has now jumped back to the red light once again

Wen Liang was wearing a shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, a delicate watch on his left wrist, the hem of his shirt tucked into his waistband, his figure appearing relaxed and superior, which was truly incongruous with the shabby little restaurant across from him

Go have dinner

Chen Die has indeed had dinner, and having endured four years of torment in the performing arts, he possesses an instinctive aversion to late-night snacks

Wen Liang lowered his head, his long fingers deftly looping around her shoelaces, quickly tying them.
