Summer Kiss

Chapter 177 He deliberately showed off his affection again.
Fu Xicheng wasn't joking. According to the information he had investigated, Qin Shuwan did indeed like Shen Xici, and had liked him for many years.

She kept this affection to herself, never telling anyone.

He said with certainty, "You heard me right."

Shen Xici looked stunned. "Brother Fu, I don't even remember what Qin Shuwan looks like, and I will never have any contact with her again."

They wouldn't have any interaction, but he wanted Shen Xici to come into contact with her.

Whether Shen Xici can heed advice is another matter entirely.

"Are you just going to stand by and watch a good girl be ruined by Fu Tian?"

Shen Xici frowned. He had no right to interfere in other people's business. Did Fu Xicheng mean for him to meddle in this matter?

Fu Xicheng has always been very observant, and he could guess what Shen Xici was thinking.

He said, "Don't doubt it, it's exactly what you think."

Now, Shen Xici only wants to serve his country. He wants to dedicate his life to the nation and has no intention of having children.

"But I don't want to meddle in other people's business."

Fu Xicheng suddenly stood up straight. He felt that he had nothing to talk about with Shen Xici; they had no common topics.

What's more, he hadn't seen Jiang Yuning for a while, and he was very clingy. He missed his girlfriend when he couldn't see her for a while.

"If that's the case, what are you still doing here? Go back to your police station."

Shen Xici: "..."

Fu Xicheng walked out of the room. He didn't know where Jiang Yuning was. He called out, "Ningning."

Hearing Fu Xicheng's voice, Jiang Yuning thought he had something urgent to say, so she quickly came out of the room.

She had just opened the door when she met Fu Xicheng's gaze.

Jiang Yuning walked towards him and asked with concern, "Did you call me because you need something?"

Fu Xicheng wrapped his arms around her waist, his chin resting on her hair, his voice deep and magnetic, "Ningning, I've found that I miss you a little when I don't see you for a while."

Shen Xici appeared at the door. He looked at the two of them and suddenly said, "Brother Fu, I'm going back first."

Fu Xicheng hummed in response but said nothing.

Jiang Yuning chuckled, thinking to herself, "This Fu Xicheng, he's being mischievous again."

Fu Xicheng was puzzled and asked her why she was laughing, "What are you laughing at?"

Jiang Yuning led Fu Xicheng by the hand to the bedroom and closed the door.

Every time Jiang Yuning had close contact with Fu Xicheng, someone would suddenly appear, and Jiang Yuning felt that Fu Xicheng must be doing it on purpose.

She blinked her bright eyes, a hint of playfulness in her smile, "Fu Xicheng, why do you always like to show off your love?"

Fu Xicheng was puzzled. Had he just shown affection for his partner?

He did nothing, yet she misunderstood him.

"Ningning, you've wronged me."

Jiang Yuning spoke frankly; she wanted Fu Xicheng to realize that he had indeed done such a thing.

"You were being affectionate with me when Xu Yansheng was at the door, and now that Shen Xici is in the room, you've wrapped your arms around my waist. Isn't this just showing off your love?"

Fu Xicheng smiled faintly; his girlfriend's imagination was running wild.

He didn't even think about it that way.

What else could Fu Xicheng say but give her a thumbs up?

Jiang Yuning pouted and continued to press, "Fu Xicheng, does that mean you're admitting it?"

This wasn't a matter of admitting or not admitting it; it was that Fu Xicheng wanted to do everything Jiang Yuning's way. His voice was incredibly gentle, "My darling, whatever you say is right."

Jiang Yuning felt a surge of emotion, and she complained coquettishly, "Fu Xicheng, if you keep spoiling me like this, you'll spoil me rotten sooner or later."

Fu Xicheng smiled and raised his wrist, glancing at his watch. He realized that time had quietly slipped away.

He suggested, "It's getting late, let's go down for dinner."

This was followed by Jiang Yuning's question, "Is the food ready yet?"

Fu Xicheng answered confidently, "It should be about time."

As soon as Jiang Yuning came downstairs, a unique and rich aroma captivated her senses. This smell was not that of food, but rather more like the aroma of dessert.

Sure enough, just as she expected, there was a beautiful transparent box on the table, inside which were neatly arranged small and cute cream puffs.

A look of surprise flashed in her eyes. "Fu Xicheng, did you buy this for me?"

"Try the cream puffs made by Kyoto Yipin Pavilion. I sent someone to queue up specifically for them."

Fu Xicheng's words were like a gentle spring breeze, carrying a delicate warmth; every word he spoke seemed to be imbued with tenderness.

Jiang Yuning's eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't wait to pick up a cream puff.

She took a bite, and the rich cream lingered in her mouth, the sweet taste captivating her.

After finishing one cream puff, she picked up another and held it to Fu Xicheng's lips.

"Open your mouth."

Fu Xicheng took a small bite, and the sweet taste made his lips feel sweet.

He spoke softly, his seemingly casual tone revealing a deep affection, "I bought this especially for you. Keep it for yourself."

Jiang Yuning felt a surge of joy in her heart. "Fu Xicheng, you're so good to me."

Fu Xicheng put his hand on her shoulder, his tone carrying a hint of ambiguity.

"I've been so good to you, shouldn't you be nicer to me too, Ningning? Aren't you going to do something about it?"

Jiang Yuning chuckled inwardly. How could she not understand Fu Xicheng's intentions? Fu Xicheng wanted to kiss her again.

She looked up and met Fu Xicheng's gentle and affectionate gaze, and couldn't help but smile secretly.

"Fu Xicheng, you've been so good to me, how could I not reciprocate?"

Jiang Yuning took a few steps forward, closing the distance between them, and gently wrapped her arms around his waist.

She tilted her head back and gently parted her lips, "But I'll give you this token of appreciation after we finish eating, okay?"

Fu Xicheng lowered his head, his eyes filled with deep helplessness. The kiss he had been looking forward to was gone just like that.

He really had no way to deal with Ningning.

“Ningning,” Fu Xicheng’s voice was a little hoarse. He leaned down slightly and gently touched her forehead, “but I want this gesture right now.”

His hand touched her stomach. "Besides, your stomach hasn't rumbled yet, which means you're not very hungry."

Fu Xicheng's breathing brushed past her ears, and Jiang Yuning could feel her cheeks gradually warming up, and her heartbeat began to quicken.

She quickly turned to the side and slipped out of his embrace.

"Fu Xicheng, don't think I don't know your true purpose. Let's eat first, then we can talk business."

Fu Xicheng whispered softly in her ear, his voice filled with grievance.

"Ningning, is it so hard to give me a kiss?"
