n a slap in the face! So she quickly tried to smooth things over, "Mom, this is—""This is your boyfriend"Before she could finish her sentence, Zheng Qiuzhi cut her off.The tone was very hostile.Xu Qin...Chapter 72: First Time Eating Strawberries

Xu Qinghuan looked at the man in front of her, almost thinking she was dreaming.

Shouldn't he stay up all night to take care of Xia Wan Yu after her surgery

"Another friend is here, I don't need anything from you." Fu Yan was a casual reply, and he took off his suit jacket and put it away.

Xu Qinghuan blinked her eyes, "Is it a boy"

What？

Another friend, a male

Fu Yan nodded, "Well, he's more suitable to take care of Lawyer Xia."

In that case, Xu Qinghuan would probably be able to guess what was going on!

I used to wonder what big event or misunderstanding existed between Fu Yan and Xia Wan. They clearly loved each other, yet they weren't together! Now I understand, there was a "third party" involved.

It's obvious that Fu Yan, with his introverted and taciturn nature, wouldn't be as attentive and flattering as the other rival. That's why Xia Wan Yu is torn between the two men.

No wonder he always wants to take himself to Qi Xia Wan Yu.

Have you eaten yet

He was unaware of her in-depth analysis, always focusing first on whether she was hungry.

"No, I'm dieting." Xu Qinghuan really didn't have much of an appetite.

"No, eat a little less in the evening. I'll have my assistant bring it over." His words always had a magic that made it impossible to refuse.

He seems to be born a leader, and others should follow his orders.

Xu Qinghuan stood up and watched him take fruit out of the refrigerator, wash it, and place it in front of her. He even picked out the biggest and reddest strawberry from the bunch and offered it to her.

“This is what I had someone bring back for me.”

Xu Qinghuan took it, a little puzzled, "How did you know I like strawberries"

Although she likes it, she hasn't bought any in a long time. Well... Thinking about it carefully, it seems like it's been over a year since she last ate it.

"Back in middle school, you ate it all up during one lunch break."

Middle school

Xu Qinghuan was reminded and suddenly remembered that the first time she ate strawberries, it seemed to be in junior high!

Vaguely remembering that there was a generous classmate in the class at the time who gave everyone a box of strawberries, she had the good fortune to taste such an expensive fruit.

"You even remember this" she said, taking a bite.

Mmm, that's sweet.

He smiled without speaking, a long hand still holding a

waiting to pass it at any moment.

Fu Yan was of course not forgetting, because that "generous" classmate was him.

At that moment, during English class where they were learning the word "strawberry," he, as her deskmate, noticed Xu Qinghuan staring intently at the strawberry illustration on the page for a long time.

Fu Yan knew that if he only bought a gift for her, Xu Qinghuan definitely wouldn't accept it. So, he took out the prize money he won from the competition and contacted an orchard to send each classmate a box of fruit in the name of the class monitor.

"Why aren't you eating" Xu Qinghuan glanced at him and personally picked a one, holding it to his mouth. "It's very sweet."

He didn't refuse, opening his mouth to bite into the strawberry and accidentally biting her fingertip.

Like an electric shock, Xu Qinghuan hastily pulled her hand back, her face flushed red.

As everyone who has been through this knows, the current atmosphere calls for something...

Fu Yan held her gently in a princess carry and walked towards the bedroom. He leaned in and pressed a kiss to Xu Qinghuan's lips, lingering there for a long time until she was breathless, her face red like a strawberry.

"Well, it's very sweet." talking about isn’t the kind you can get rid of with just a good night’s sleep,” Xu Qinghuan instinctively avoided his gaze, lowering her eyes. “Today I went to see my mom and found that Nie Zisen go...
