Chapter 106
"What are you afraid of?" There was a trace of sarcasm in his voice, and his eyes were unfeeling and cold.
Afraid?
No, she wasn't!
"It's not that she's afraid, it's just that it's inappropriate. If XIwen were to see it, she would have misunderstood."
With their current relations.h.i.+p, this kind of action was way too intimate.
"Are you afraid that she will misunderstand, or do you already have a misunderstanding in your heart?" His voice wasn't loud, but the ridicule in his tone was very obvious.
Being exposed to his thoughts, Luo Qing Yun felt her face become even hotter. Knowing that he would not let go, she decided to stop resisting and only let him hold her hand like that.
After Huo Xi Wen left for a few minutes, she rushed over carrying the first aid kit.
Seeing that the bleeding had stopped at this time, he slightly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Open the iodine complex first, then put the cotton swab in and wet it." Su Chen Hao instructed them methodically.
Huo Xi Wen immediately did as she was told and handed the cotton swabs filled with iodine to him.
Su Chen Hao took the cotton swab, and was prepared to disinfect the wound on her finger. Luo Qing Yun was afraid of pain, so she did not dare look and only turned her head to the side.
As soon as the swab touched her wound, she flinched reflexively from the pain. Fortunately, he held her hand and didn't let her slip away.
"Endure it." He sounded like he was telling her something, or giving orders.
The strength in his hand was a bit heavier than before. He soaked the cotton swab in the wound and completely disinfected it.
The current Luo Qing Yun was in so much pain that her entire face creased into a frown and she almost teared up.
As Luo Qing Yun's hand was injured and was unable to continue cooking lunch, Huo Xi Wen had no mood to learn now, so she suggested that the three of them eat at the restaurant outside.
However, before she left, she suddenly received a call. There was an urgent matter that required her to go out, so she apologetically said to Luo Qing Yun, "Qingyun, I'm really sorry, I can't go out to eat with you. My mother just called me, saying that she has urgent matters for me to attend to."
After Luo Qing Yun heard this, she hastily waved her hands, "There's no need to go to all this trouble, I'll just go back immediately."
"Go back directly? How could that work? If my aunt knew that I had brought you to my house, she would have told you to go back hungry. I don't know what to say to you. I don't want to be criticized. You have to finish eating before you can go home. " Huo Xi Wen forcefully arranged a meal, then pushed Luo Qing Yun in front of Su Chen Hao, "Big Brother Chen, remember this, entertain her for me."
After saying that, she ran to the garage and got into her white Ferrari sports car. With a thump of the throttle, she disappeared in front of the two of them.
When Huo Xi Wen left, only Su Chen Hao and Luo Qing Yun remained. The silent and awkward situation enveloped them once more.
"Let's go." After half a minute, Su Chen Hao walked out.
Luo Qing Yun had no choice but to follow him out, and when she arrived at the door of the car, she saw
Sitting on this familiar secondary driving, Luo Qing Yun's mood was completely different from the last time she sat here.
After a good while, Luo Qing Yun realized that he was not heading in the direction of the hibiscus garden at all.
Where was he taking her?
Luo Qing Yun was full of doubts, but just as she was about to ask, he had already entered Y City's Wind Belt along the lake.
Luo Qing Yun knew that there was a very high cla.s.s restaurant on top of the lake. He Mei Xin had mentioned about this restaurant several times and ranked it as number one on the list of restaurants she wanted to buy.
The car suddenly stopped in front of the dining hall on the lake. Su Chen Hao opened the car door for Luo Qing Yun gracefully, and watched her hesitating as she got off the car.
"What did you bring me here for?"
Her heart raced as she asked uneasily.
"Eat."
It was just two short words, but he had already locked the car. His deep eyes quietly stared at the road in front of him. Under the noon sunlight, the contours of his face exuded a charming glow.
In a few seconds, they arrived at the main hall of the dining hall. At the entrance of the elevator, a pretty and well-dressed receptionist came up to them with a smile on her face, "Mr. Su, welcome. May I ask how many guests you have today?"
"Both of you." Su Chen Hao said.
"Let's order." After Su Chen Hao took his seat, he called for the waiter and threw the menu in front of Lian Xi Xi to remind her.
"I... I'm not hungry, so I might as well eat something. " She was not even in the mood to eat, so why would she care about what the meal was? Hence, she handed the menu over to Su Chen Hao.
"How about I recommend to the two of you the newly released couple set meal in our restaurant." The waiter saw the huge diamond ring on the ring finger of Luo Qing Yun's right hand and immediately understood what was going on.
"Two servings of A's and three servings of steak." Luo Qing Yun wanted to open his mouth to reject, but Su Chen Hao had already opened his mouth. His tone was cold, but seeing how Luo Qing Yun looked as if she wanted to say something, he suddenly felt that it was funny.
Originally, due to the awkward atmosphere, Luo Qing Yun did not have the slightest bit of appet.i.te, but now that the food was here, she could not help but swallow her saliva. After all, even if she was not hungry now, the baby in her stomach was too.
Picking up the knife and fork, he gently cut open the steak. The meat inside was raw, a shocking red.
"Why?" Su Chen Hao saw that ever since she made the first cut, she had revealed a disgusting expression and did not move again.
"No …." Nothing, I... I have no appet.i.te. " Shaking her head, she didn't dare to tell him. She felt disgusted looking at this thing. He forced a smile on his face, not daring to look at the steak in front of him.
Frowning, she wanted to refuse, but just as she opened her mouth, he brought the meat into her mouth as if he had found the right moment. Remembering that the b.l.o.o.d.y thing from before had already entered his mouth, Luo Qing Yun did not have time to savor the deliciousness of the steak and could only feel the urge to vomit.
She forced herself to swallow the meat in her mouth, she was so wronged that tears almost flowed out.
"Do you want me to feed you?" With a faint smile on his face, he asked softly.
Lowering his head, Luo Qing Yun began to fight with the meat on the plate. After forcing himself to eat a small piece of the disgusting food, he found that the taste was not bad. With the addition of the old red wine, she slowly began to understand why so many people liked to eat Western food.
The two of them continued with their meal in silence for the rest of the meal, apart from the time when they interacted at the beginning. It wasn't until Su Chen Hao finished his meal that the two of them walked out of the restaurant on the lake.
"Thank you for lunch. I've delayed you for so long, I think I can go back by myself." After following him to the garage, she finally mustered the courage to speak.
"I'm never used to doing things half-way." As he spoke, he opened the door for her again.
The meaning behind her words was that he had to send her home.
"There's really no need for that. Go and busy yourself with what you need to do." If she continued to stay in the same s.p.a.ce with him, she was afraid that she would go crazy.
"Luo Qing Yun, didn't you say that you want me to forget the past and pretend that nothing happened? Now that I'm sending you home as my big brother, why did you refuse? Or could it be that, because you can't let go of your own heart, you desperately want to keep your distance from me? " Su Chen Hao looked down at her condescendingly, his every word was like a bell that rang in Luo Qing Yun's heart.
Luo Qing Yun's face paled slightly as she bit her lower lip with a stubborn look.
No, not like that!
"Don't think too much into it. I'm not unable to put it down, I just …" She wanted to explain why she had avoided him.
However, he didn't have the patience to listen. "Then get in the car and prove it to me!"
Luo Qing Yun lifted her head and met his deep eyes with her watery eyes. After a long while, she clenched her teeth and bowed. She got on the carriage and looked forward expressionlessly, not saying a word.
If daring to be alone with him was evidence that she had abandoned him completely, then she was willing to try to adjust to the difficult and difficult situation.
