The woman glanced at Si Yu and smiled contemptuously. She stood up and gave up her seat but then turned around and sat next to Kun You.

Si Yu’s brows twitched. She didn’t expect this woman to be so shameless. Yet, even after knowing that Kun You already had a female companion, she still dared to sit there!

A small flame burned in Si Yu’s heart.

However, the woman acted as if she didn’t see it. She reached out to touch the lower half of Kun You’s body. “Handsome, just try it for one night. I guarantee you’ll be fascinated…”

Si Yu finally couldn’t take it anymore. Just as he was about to say something, she heard Kun You’s impatient and disgusted voice. “Get lost!”

Kun You wasn’t a mild-tempered person. However, how could a street girl resist the aura of a high-ranking person? The woman was frightened by Kun You’s cold face, and her body trembled. She quickly stood up from her seat.

In her line of work, she was the best at reading people’s expressions. Realizing Kun You was not to be trifled with, the woman’s previous little thoughts were all dispelled. She also ran like a beast chased her, not even daring to say a word.

As he watched the other party leave, the little flame in Si Yu’s heart was snuffed out.

She pushed the Hua noodles in front of Kun You and chirped happily, “Hurry up and eat. It won’t taste good when it’s cold.”

Kun You nodded and opened the tin foil that wrapped the Hua noodles. His lowered eyes revealed a smile. His mind was filled with the image of Si Yu’s hedgehog-like appearance.

The anger in her eyes and the way she didn’t want anyone to get close to her attracted him far more than the fans in front of him. He couldn’t help but wonder if Si Yu didn’t actually hate him that much. Did she even like him a little?

“You don’t like it?” Si Yu asked Kun You, who had been in a daze ever since he opened the package.

Kun You came back to his senses and shook his head. “No, I just haven’t eaten it before, so I don’t know what it tastes like.”

“You can try it. It’s delicious.” Si Yu picked up a piece with his chopsticks, blew on it a few times, and brought it to Kun You’s mouth.

At that moment, Kun You’s heart thumped so hard that it was about to burst out of his chest. This was the first time Si Yu had fed him. However, just as he was about to eat, the Pangolin noodles served by the boss attracted Si Yu’s attention.

The noodles that had almost reached his mouth were put back into the bowl. His rapidly beating heart stopped at once. It angered and aggrieved him. Si Yu, who had unknowingly hurt the young man’s heart, was utterly unaware of this. Her heart was only filled with the Hua Jia noodles that she had long longed for.

She immediately picked some up with her chopsticks and started eating.

“It’s so hot!”

…

On the way back, Si Yu stuck out her tongue and kept looking at herself in the small mirror, trying to see if she had been scalded.

Back then, Si Yu would continue to eat after shouting at him. Hence, he thought she would be fine, but now that he saw Si Yu looking at herself in the mirror, he was a little uncertain. He stopped the car by the side of the road and reached out to pinch Si Yu’s chin, turning her head to face him. “Let me see if you’re scalded.”

Si Yu stuck out her tongue without any warning. There was not a single wound on her pink tongue, which put Kun You at ease. At the same time, his heart was tickled.

How obedient, Kun You thought.

“Still not done?” Si Yu felt her tongue was a little sore. She wanted to take it back, but he kissed her.

The strong arms that held her tightly and the agile tongue in her mouth made Si Yu feel like a dying fish. She didn’t have the strength to struggle, and her heart was beating rapidly.

In a daze, she had a feeling that she was going to be swallowed alive, but this feeling didn’t terrify her. Instead, it gave her a strange feeling in her heart. This feeling came suddenly and inexplicably, and she was unable to find the answer for a while.

Because of this kiss, the two were silent the entire way. When they got home, Si Yu, who didn’t know how to face the wandering Kun You, quickly ran back to her room.

Si Yu’s escape made Kun You reveal a bitter smile.

He had thought that everything that had happened today meant that Si Yu must’ve accepted him. He didn’t expect it to be just a short dream.

He was a little disappointed, but compared to the past, things were much better now. Although her heart wasn’t here, at least her body was. As long as time passed, she would probably like him, right?

Although he knew that the possibility was slim, he still held on to that tiny bit of hope.
