Chapter 140: The Law of Staring at each other.

Chapter 140

After buying everything, Yu Na hurried home before dusk.

When she got home, grandpa and grandma had already prepared dinner, even more abundant than lunch.

In the afternoon, Yu Na had eaten all the way at the market. She wanted to eat everything but only ate half of each thing.

As Xiao Chen had predicted, he ate all the other halves she had left.

So neither of them was very hungry now.

But they didn’t want to ruin the mood, so they forced themselves to eat dinner, just very slowly.

After eating and taking a bath, Yu Na completely relaxed after closing the bedroom door.

Although the elders treated her very well, she still couldn't fully let her guard down.

With only Xiao Chen in the room, she snuggled into the quilt. Xiao Chen followed right after and snuggled in too.

Yu Na’s feet were frozen cold even though she had worn thick snow boots.

As soon as this walking hot water bottle snuggled in, she lifted her feet onto Xiao Chen's legs without saying anything.

"Ow!" His body shuddered.

She smiled mischievously, rubbing her feet on his legs.

"Xiao Chen."

"What?" He hugged her into his arms, very naturally transferring his warmth to her body.

"Do you know about the 10-second eye contact rule between men and women?"

"No."

"It's said that if they maintain eye contact for more than 10 seconds, the man will definitely kiss the woman."

"Hmm?" Xiao Chen had never heard of such a saying. He was surprised for two seconds at first, then quickly became skeptical. "Impossible."

"I think it makes sense." Yu Na snuggled deeper into his arms. "Let's try it?"

Xiao Chen said, "Boring, I won't try."

Yu Na deliberately provoked him, "It seems you still don't dare."

Xiao Chen said, "What's there to not dare?"

"Then try it!"

"Let's try it then!" Xiao Chen was ready to win. He didn't forget to remind her, "Let's make it clear first, don't get angry if I don't kiss you."

"Okay, okay."

They were both convinced of their own guesses and neither was willing to lose.

Yu Na tidied her hair and lay in his arms. Her watery big eyes blinked and blinked, pretending he was all she saw.

Usually by this point, he wouldn't have been able to resist kissing her fiercely and doing some other naughty things.

But now, reason prevailed. His only thought was: win!

Xiao Chen asked, "How many seconds has it been?"

Yu Na ignored him and stared straight at him. Her eyes could shoot electricity.

Ten, nine, eight, seven...

Xiao Chen also looked at her. He showed no intention of kissing her at all. Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Five, four, three...

When it was almost ten seconds, Yu Na's hand suddenly reached under the quilt and decisively seized all his reason.

That pointless desire to win instantly collapsed into ruins.

Yu Na thought that they shouldn't talk about such heavy matters during the New Year. Besides, Qiao Rui knew how to study now.

So she concealed those annoying things for Qiao Rui and answered, "No, no, Qiao Rui is very sensible."

Yu Na only praised without criticizing him. She also said, "This kid is quite chivalrous. He usually respects teachers a lot too."

Respects teachers a lot.

Listening nearby, Xiao Chen truly admired her shameless lying skills.

Qiao Rui was praised by his parents for a while. When his parents went to help out, he was so excited he almost kneeled down. "Sister-in-law, you're my god!"

Xiao Chen said, "How can you shamelessly say he respects you?" He brought up past grievances again. He was still really upset about this matter. "Did you forget he blew a kiss at you? Is that respect?!"

Qiao Rui: "...Bro, can you forget about that?"

...

The spring couplets hadn't been put up yet as the elders were busy preparing the New Year's Eve dinner. The young couple and a third wheel went out to put up the spring couplets.

Yu Na said, "I've never put them up before. Let me do it."

Xiao Chen and Qiao Rui, the two tall guys, exchanged a look and unanimously told her, "You just rest on the side."

"I want to put them up!"

Xiao Chen could only indulge his wife. He squatted down. "Come on."

"Huh?"

Yu Na and Qiao Rui both looked at him. "What do you mean?"

Xiao Chen had arranged it perfectly: "You can't reach. Get on my shoulders and put them up. Qiao Rui will check the positioning for you while you stick them."

But Qiao Rui refused to cooperate. His eyebrows were twisted into knots. "Damn! Is there no chair in the house?!"

Xiao Chen ignored him and urged Yu Na again, "Get on."

Yu Na spread her legs and sat on Xiao Chen's shoulders while he gripped her legs and steadily raised her to stand up.

Qiao Rui gave a thumbs up. "...You two really know how to have fun as a couple."

Xiao Chen calmly corrected him: "We're a married couple."

Yu Na suppressed the uptick at the corners of her mouth as she unfolded the spring couplet.

Under Qiao Rui's sarcastic direction, she put up the spring couplet properly.

After putting up the spring couplet, Qiao Rui was in no hurry to go back in. He took out his phone and opened WeChat. He tapped into the pinned conversation - "The Cutest Xu Yi Princess in the World."

This note was set by Xu Yi herself.

They had competed in reciting vocabulary. Whoever made fewer mistakes could make a request. Xu Yi had won.

So she changed Qiao Rui's note for her. Qiao Rui had complained about this note to her but still didn't change it back. He even pinned the conversation.

He sent Xu Yi a message: [Did you put up your spring couplets?]

The Cutest Xu Yi Princess in the World: [My dad put them up~]

Qiao Rui: [Those in Yunwan Mansion haven't been put up yet.]

The Cutest Xu Yi Princess in the World: [Then wait until you're back in Changwan to put them up~]

Qiao Rui: [You can put them up then! How about it? [smirking face][smirking face][smirking face]]

Xu Yi didn't know what was going on and naturally didn't know what mischief he was up to either. She simply replied: [Okay!]

Qiao Rui satisfyingly put away his phone and made a "yes" gesture outside the door, fist pumped.

Right then, the door happened to open. Out came the hardest to fool people, Xiao Chen and Yu Na.

His silly look, the young couple's startled looks, at that moment they inadvertently burst in on each other's sight.
