Su Qi suddenly raised her head and looked at the man opposite her in displeasure.

He picked up the chopsticks in front of Su Qi and showed it to her. Xiang Yu smiled as he looked at her.

"Why does he look so serious?"

Seeing the seriousness on Su Qi's face, she could not help but frown.

He didn't like this woman's frown. He hadn't liked her since the first time he saw her on the street.

He hadn't even thought about it since he was able to eat together with her. He knew that it had been a hot topic recently, but he didn't mention it on purpose. He wanted this woman to be a bit happier.

"Who told you to lie to me. I thought that the food was really tasty..."

Su Qi replied indifferently, her thin and weak skeleton was still as lonely as before.

After tasting the food he cooked, Su Qi's intelligent eyes suddenly turned sour, and she recalled the past. When she was together with Shen Tianai, it was always Shen Tianai who cooked for her.

Sensing that the little girl was not right, Xiang Yu put down his chopsticks, "What's wrong?"

Su Qi's delicate face now seemed especially pale.

The quiet light fell on their faces, casting a beautiful shadow on the ground.

Su Qi rubbed her eyes and shook her head, "It's nothing, I was just thinking of a few things from the past."

Before?

Was it her and that man who were eating face to face as well?

Her beautiful eyes instantly froze. The gentleness from before was no longer present in them. A corner of her heart suddenly froze.

Looking at the lady in front of him, Xiang Yu spoke, "Is it because of him?"

After he asked that question tentatively, Su Qi's expression suddenly dropped, and her watery eyes became sad and worried.

Indeed.

Su Qi lowered her head and did not answer. After a while, a sentence floated out, "Eat."

He picked up the chopsticks again, but the taste of the dishes on the table had already disappeared.

Su Qi mechanically repeated her actions, forcing herself not to think about it.

"Are you really going to divorce him?"

His tone was questioning, and his gloomy eyes were filled with hope.

Even if they knew the result … Only, Xiang Yu didn't even notice how low his tone had become towards himself.

Su Qi was startled, and her face became even uglier.

Divorce?

She had said that and made up her mind, but every time she thought of that man's face, her heart would always remind her.

She was just deceiving herself, or perhaps she hoped that man would be able to persuade her to stay.

"How do you know?"

Su Qi was confused, staring at her with her beautiful eyes, as though she was asking her a question.

"You said it yourself."

A wry smile flashed across his face, Xiang Yu laughed indifferently.

After all, it was just a drunken speech, he still had a glimmer of hope that this woman spoke the truth.

She said it herself? Suddenly, he remembered that she drank too much yesterday …

"Sorry, I drank too much yesterday …"

Su Qi said indifferently, and apologized to Xiang Yu.

She really didn't know what she said and did last night. "Yesterday, I didn't do anything out of line with you, right?"

He carefully probed further. The scenes from last night were like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle that appeared in his mind, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't piece them together.

She only remembered that she drank too much. When he woke up, he was already inside the police station.

It seemed... What have I done to you?

"If you didn't do anything to me, how could I have been sent to the police station as a rapist? I have to thank you …"

Xiang Yu said leisurely.

Su Qi's mind buzzed and went blank.

She seemed to have done something to him. With all his might, Su Qi could only faintly remember that he drank a lot of alcohol, and then, he followed Xiang Yu onto the carriage. She didn't remember any of the things that happened in the future.

"If I've done anything too excessive to you, I hope you don't mind and don't misunderstand. I didn't do it on purpose, my alcohol tolerance isn't good."

Su Qi explained out loud, and started to panic.

It was all her fault for drinking. He clearly knew his alcohol tolerance!

"Don't worry."

Xiang Yu glanced at the little lady, her mood was much better than before. Su Qi was at a loss of what to do, unexpectedly a little cute.

After the strange feeling in his heart was cleared, Xiang Yu returned to his usual melancholy.

At the dining table, the atmosphere was slightly awkward.

"These few days, you can stay here for now. Since no one is staying, you can stay here for a few days if you want."

Xiang Yu opened his mouth, breaking the silent atmosphere.

Su Qi glanced at him embarrassedly, "Mn, thank you."

"However, I'll leave the hygiene of my home to you. In the future, I'll save the money to find an hour worker." Xiang Yu laughed, he was more or less done eating.

His handsome facial features revealed gentleness, while the corners Xiang Yu had were nearly perfect.

The man's facial features were even better than the man in front of him.

Su Qi was dazed for a moment before reacting.

"Don't worry, you can leave cleaning to me in the future."

Her previous attitude toward this man was now that he was still willing to help her. She was already very grateful and satisfied.

"Thank you so much."

In the dim light, Su Qi suddenly laughed gently.

Su Qi packed everything up properly before calming down. That man had already disappeared to who knows where.

Looking around, Su Qi realized that there was a picture on the table.

In the picture, there was a middle-aged woman holding onto a young boy. He looked to be about seven or eight years old.

Probably from the photos, Xiang Yu and her mother that the middle-aged woman was also a beauty.

It was just that Xiang Yu's smile was extremely bright, Su Qi had almost never seen Xiang Yu smile like this before.

Su Qi watched in a daze, and for a moment, she did not notice that Xiang Yu had already gotten close to her side.

"Is my mother beautiful?"

The sudden commotion scared Su Qi, but she still nodded, "Yes, Auntie must have been a beauty when I was young."

"When my mother was young, no matter who it was, they would praise her. That's why every time I went out with her, I was especially jealous."

The words were filled with pride.

As the space between his eyebrows relaxed, Xiang Yu seemed to be immersed in his memories.

Su Qi glanced at Xiang Yu, and her delicate eyebrows slightly bent, "You also have a good mother, so you should feel happy, not depressed like you are now."

When he looked seriously at Xiang Yu, Su Qi retracted her gaze.

Xiang Yu smiled like a clear, big boy when he was young.

It was the complete opposite of the current him.

Melancholy?

Xiang Yu laughed bitterly.
