After her dramatic cousin stopped acting up, the aloof doctor got anxious.

Qi Wenshen glanced at her front, his gaze lingering on her chest for a moment, his expression suggestive.

"Eating too many desserts can easily lead to fat accumulation."

Shen Ruo: "??"

She followed his gaze and looked down, almost covering her face with her hands.

Nani?

Is this fat?

The fat here isn't something everyone can just have.

Don't think I won't scold you just because you're the male lead.

Shen Ruo's entire demeanor conveyed her dissatisfaction.

His cheeks were puffed out, his eyes were wide open, and his lips were pressed into a thin line; it was as if he had "You know nothing" written all over his face.

Qi Wenshen looked at her, finding it amusing.

Why does my cousin have such expressive face?

He looked away and told the waiter, "Change the dessert to a small cup."

Shen Ruo's disappointment turned into a small surprise.

It's better than nothing.

Her face brightened, and she sweetly thanked him, "Thank you, cousin. You're so kind."

Her soft, delicate voice was like a kitten's paw gently scratching at my heart.

Qi Wenshen hummed in agreement, picked up his water glass, took a sip, and concealed the smile on his lips.

The seafood congee was served quickly.

A large bowl full of shrimp, crab meat, clams, and fish slices, sprinkled with bright green scallions, with a fresh and fragrant aroma.

Shen Ruo's eyes widened in disbelief.

She picked up the spoon, scooped up a large mouthful, blew on it slightly, and couldn't wait to put it in her mouth. It was so hot that she was panting, but she still couldn't bear to spit it out and kept rummaging around in her mouth.

"Slower."

Qi Wenshen frowned. "No one's going to take it from you. Eating something too hot will hurt your intestines."

Shen Ruo gave a muffled "hmm" and scooped up another spoonful.

She was really starving.

The night shift is so busy, I'm spinning like a top. One loaf of bread lasts me eight hours. Now, when I see food, I lose all reason and just want to bury my head in it and eat.

The barbecue was served too.

The lamb skewers sizzled and dripped with oil, sprinkled with cumin and chili powder, filling the air with their aroma.

The chicken wings have a crispy skin and are tender and juicy inside; one bite and your mouth is filled with fragrance.

Shen Ruo ate a bite of mutton and a bite of chicken wing with great relish, not even noticing the oil stains on the corners of her mouth.

Qi Wenshen sat opposite him, with a bowl of white porridge in front of him, but he didn't touch it.

He watched her eat.

Watching her chew with her cheeks puffed out, watching her stick out her tongue to lick the oil stains from the corners of her mouth, watching her slightly open mouth and panting because of the spiciness, her lips red as if she had just been kissed hard.

Qi Wenshen looked away, picked up the bowl of white porridge, took a sip, and found it bland and tasteless.

"Cousin, aren't you going to eat?"

Shen Ruo finally noticed that he only drank porridge, and asked him while holding up a chicken wing.

I'm not hungry.

"oh."

Shen Ruo blinked, then suddenly realized that the chicken wing she had was all that was left in her hand. She handed over the half-eaten wing, "Would you like to try some? It's delicious."

Qi Wenshen: "..."

He looked at the bitten chicken wing, still bearing her teeth marks, which gleamed enticingly under the light.

His eyes darkened.

"Need not."

Shen Ruo gave an "oh," withdrew her hand, and continued to gnaw on her own food.

Seeing that she was completely oblivious, Qi Wenshen felt that restlessness rise in his heart again.

Is this woman naive or foolish?

She casually hands over food she's bitten; does she know what that means to men?

After finishing the chicken wing, Shen Ruo wanted to take a wet wipe from her bag.

But the wet wipes were at the very back, so she had to take them out one by one and put them on the table before she could get the wet wipes.

Qi Wenshen looked at the small box of Miffy with a cool gaze.

He's a doctor, so he knows what kind of medicine this is.

Is she buying that thing to sleep with her boyfriend?

As someone who shares a room with his cousin, he needed to understand the situation clearly to prevent her from going astray.

"Shen Ruo."

He suddenly spoke, his voice turning cold.

"Um?"

Shen Ruo looked up.

"You actually carry this with you all the time?"

He gestured with his chin towards the item she took out of her bag.

Shen Ruo, not understanding, lowered her head.

Then, her eyes widened.

Did the original owner buy contraceptive pills?

Do you still keep it in your bag and carry it with you?

How come she didn't know?

Looking into Qi Wenshen's deep eyes, she suddenly realized...

Could this man really think she bought contraceptive pills to…

"I bought cold medicine."

She hurriedly explained, "That...that was recommended by the pharmacy clerk, who said the package deal was a good deal, so I..."

As she spoke, her voice grew softer and softer.

Original owner, you've ruined me! Don't be greedy for cheap things, don't be greedy for cheap things. Even retired old men and women understand this, but you don't?

Qi Wenshen's expression changed from gloomy to strange.

"combo?

"Um."

Shen Ruo lowered her head, the tips of her ears turning red.

Destroy it!

She was a young, unmarried woman who was misunderstood as having bought the wrong medicine on her very first day after transmigrating.

Qi Wenshen looked at her bright red ear tips.

He picked up the bowl of congee and took another sip. This time, he felt that the taste wasn't so bland.

"Yes, we can't accept this kind of package deal anymore."

"oh."

There won't be a next time.

We ate a late-night snack until 2 a.m.

Shen Ruo patted her round belly and let out a satisfied burp.

"belch"

She quickly covered her mouth, her face turning red again.

Qi Wenshen glanced at her, then got up to pay the bill.

Shen Ruo followed behind, looking at his tall and straight back, feeling a little complicated.

This man, though cold and aloof, doesn't seem that scary inside.

At least, he treated her to a late-night snack.

Although I misunderstood that she bought contraceptive pills, I wasn't angry; I was just concerned about her.

Shen Ruo shook her head, trying to shake off these random thoughts.

Don't overthink it.

He is the male lead.

The ruthless and vindictive male protagonist in the book.

The reason they're being nice to her now might just be because of their cousin relationship.

She needs to stay alert.

Stepping out of the porridge shop, Shen Ruo shivered as the night wind blew.

She was only wearing a short-sleeved skirt, and the temperature dropped sharply at two in the morning, making her hug her arms tightly from the cold.

Qi Wenshen took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.

Shen Ruo: "..."

His coat still carried his body heat, and the scent of mint enveloped her completely.

"Put them on."

He said calmly and walked towards the car first.

Shen Ruo stood there, watching his back, her heart skipped a beat.

She suddenly understood why the original owner of this body had fallen in love with him.

She's cold on the outside but warm on the inside, thoughtful and considerate—a true gem.

She gripped her coat tightly and jogged to catch up.

The two entered the house one after the other.

Shen Ruo took off her coat and handed it to Qi Wenshen with both hands, a very sincere smile on her face. "Cousin, thank you for tonight. Thank you for the coat and the shoes. The shoes you picked out are very beautiful, I like them very much."

Qi Wenshen took the coat and unbuttoned the top button of the shirt with one hand, revealing his well-defined collarbone.

He glanced down at the shoes on Shen Ruo's feet, then looked up at her again, his thin lips parting slightly, "338."

"what?"

"Shoes, 338 yuan."

Qi Wenshen pulled out his phone from his pocket, the screen lit up, and he shoved a WeChat QR code in Shen Ruo's face. "Add me as a friend, transfer money."

Shen Ruo: "??"

She froze on the spot.

The slap in the face came too fast, like a tornado.

Just a few minutes ago, she was mentally awarding Qi Wenshen the Best Cousin of the Year award.

A few minutes later, all she wanted was to go back to before the awards ceremony and slap her own loose tongue.

Wouldn't it be better to just close the door and go to sleep as soon as you get back?

It smells so good, so delicious!

But she insisted on saying thank you, and now look what happened—338 yuan, and her bank balance is down to just over a thousand yuan.

On the surface, she smiled like a newly opened rose, "Okay, cousin, I'll add it right away."
