Accidentally provoking the spring tide

Chapter 10.010. He said, Sister Ji Xu… (revised)

The octagonal table was laden with delicious-looking dishes, but Jiang Jixu didn't glance at them. Instead, she kept looking towards the door. When the minute hand of the antique wall clock crossed another number, she finally couldn't sit still any longer and got up to go find someone.

Her skirt swayed with her movements, vaguely revealing her fair and slender calves.

It just so happened that the visitor saw it.

Lu Lishen paused slightly, turned his head and whispered something to the waiter next to him before entering the private room.

Upon seeing the scene inside the house, the man paused for a moment.

The seat next to Jiang Jixu was taken by Jiang Wang.

Seeing Lu Lishen standing still, Jiang Wang curled his lips, leaned back, crossed his arms, and said lazily while crossing his legs, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Sit down."

Lu Lishen lowered his eyes and walked silently to the seat opposite him.

A smug glint flashed in Jiang Wang's eyes.

He and Lu Lishen were friends for many years, but also old rivals.

But whether it's academic performance or sports, wherever Lu Lishen is, he can only be second best.

Over time, he acquired the nickname "Second Brother".

Jiang Wang squinted, his back teeth grinding together with a "crunching" sound whenever he thought about it.

He'd held this grudge for a long time, and now it was finally this guy's turn to suffer!

Jiang Wang almost burst out laughing.

He was just about to watch the show.

Unexpectedly, the man opposite her suddenly spoke, his usually cold voice softening and taking on a captivating sweetness. Coupled with his slightly lowered, watery eyes, he unintentionally exuded an innocent and endearing charm.

"Sister Ji Xu, I want to eat the sweet and sour pork ribs over there."

Jiang Jixu and Jiang Wang were both stunned.

The former was because of Lu Lishen's nickname, while the latter was because of the strong smell of tea emanating from the man.

The smell almost brought tears to his eyes!
Is this something Lu Lishen could actually say?!

Jiang Jixu and Lu Lishen stared at each other for a few seconds. Jiang Jixu's heart pounded under Lu Lishen's gaze. He quickly looked away and hesitated, "A-Wang, why don't you... change seats?"

"??!!"

Jiang Wang stared at Jiang Jixu in disbelief: "This round table can rotate!"

Lu Lishen's reasoning is completely unfounded! Jiang Jixu remained silent for a moment, his gaze darting away: "My parents taught us to be helpful..."

Jiang Wang took a deep breath, stood up abruptly, and reluctantly gave up his seat.

Lu Lishen's lips curled slightly as he politely said, "Thank you, Awang."

Jiang Wang forced out three words through gritted teeth: "No, you're welcome!"

He sat down angrily, a stark contrast to Lu Lishen, who sat opposite him with a calm and sunny demeanor.

The man poured a cup of tea and handed it to Jiang Jixu.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the private room. A waiter, with a smile, held out a plush blanket and respectfully asked Jiang Jixu, "Miss, would you like a blanket?"

Jiang Jixu was taken aback. Before she could speak, Lu Lishen naturally took the blanket, folded it, and bent down to place it on her knees.

The movements are smooth and flowing.

Jiang Wang was dumbfounded.

Jiang Jixu's cheeks flushed slightly, and he whispered "thank you." Afraid that Jiang Wang, who was sitting opposite him, would notice something, he could only keep drinking water.

Lu Lishen was the calmest of the three.

He picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it into Jiang Jixu's bowl.

Jiang Wang scoffed at his overly solicitous behavior, saying with a sneer, "Didn't you say you wanted sweet and sour pork ribs? Why are you only putting them on my sister's plate and not eating any yourself?"

Lu Lishen has a light palate and has never liked greasy food.

He wouldn't even eat a piece of grilled meat when asked to eat at a dinner party, and Jiang Wang didn't believe that a man could eat sweet and sour pork ribs.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jixu looked up and subconsciously glanced at the bowl in front of Lu Lishen, which was still clean. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Lu Lishen's gaze swept over the girl's puffed-out cheeks without leaving a trace.

She looked a bit like a hamster hoarding food, and was looking at him with those big, watery eyes, cute but unaware of it.

He covered the smile on his lips, tucked his fingers together, picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks, and put it into his mouth to Jiang Wang's astonishment.

An evaluation will be given after a short while.

"Yeah, it tastes good."

Please vote for me, my darlings!
