Chapter 588 The High-and-mighty, Two-Faced Academic Genius (Gong) VS The Unrestrained, Charming, and
Jiang Xiyu took out her phone to scan the QR code, placed her order, and then tossed the phone to Bai Chengci.
"Order yourself."
Bai Chengci picked up her phone and subtly examined it for a few moments. She noticed that Jiang Xiyu's phone was the same color as hers, and both were black. The only difference was that Jiang Xiyu's phone had a case on it, while hers did not.
The design of that phone case, well, it's really cute.
It's black, with only a funny expression in the middle, fierce, gritting its teeth, just like its owner.
Bai Chengci's lips curled up almost imperceptibly.
He didn't order any food; he simply returned the phone to Jiang Xiyu.
Seeing that the number of dishes hadn't increased, Jiang Xiyu looked up and asked him, "Aren't you eating?"
Bai Chengci replied without changing his expression, "I don't know what to order."
Jiang Xiyu paused for a moment, then ordered some light dishes for him.
Bai Chengci seemed to remember something, took out her phone, and said to Jiang Xiyu, "How much is it? I'll transfer it to you."
Jiang Xiyu ignored him, paid the bill and said only, "Eat quickly, and then go back to school."
Bai Chengci poured a glass of water and handed it over, saying calmly, "I asked the professor for leave, so there's no rush."
Jiang Xiyu looked up at him, genuinely puzzled: "Why did you ask for leave?"
Bai Chengci didn't explain, but just watched Jiang Xiyu blink slowly. With her face still flushed, the meaning was quite clear.
But he still said it out loud.
Bai Chengci: "I want to spend more time with you."
For some reason, Jiang Xiyu strangely saw a hint of shyness on Bai Chengci's face.
He paused for a moment, then quickly gulped down two mouthfuls of ice water.
Fuck it.
He's probably hallucinating from heatstroke.
After finishing her iced water, Jiang Xiyu complained, "Your ability to spout sweet nothings so easily is really impressive. Tell me honestly, how many have you dated?"
Bai Chengci said calmly, "We haven't talked about it."
Jiang Xiyu clearly did not believe it.
Bai Chengci thought for a moment, remained silent for a long while, and then said in a clear but low voice: "I want to talk, but the person I like doesn't want to talk to me..."
Jiang Xiyu: "..."
The store was quite noisy, so Bai Chengci's voice was suppressed.
After hearing this, Jiang Xiyu couldn't help but kick him under the table to signal him to watch his words.
Bai Chengci frowned slightly when kicked, and her hand holding the drink tightened involuntarily.
"Alright, shut up." Jiang Xiyu said directly, "From now on, I don't want to hear you say a single word."
"..."
Bai Chengci was silent for a few seconds, then nodded.
When the food was served, the two of them didn't exchange a single word during the meal.
Jiang Xiyu put all the spicy dishes on her side and placed the non-spicy dishes in front of Bai Chengci.
As Bai Chengci ate, she reached her chopsticks towards him.
Jiang Xiyu glanced at him, then used her chopsticks to stop him, and said in a deep voice, "Do you want your stomach to hurt like hell?"
Bai Chengci stared at him without saying a word.
Jiang Xiyu said coldly, "You're not allowed to eat from my side."
Bai Chengci remained silent for a moment, then lowered her eyes expressionlessly.
Five minutes later, a jug of ice water was handed over.
Jiang Xiyu glanced at it but didn't move.
Bai Chengci stood up slightly and poured him a cup herself.
Another five minutes passed.
The person opposite got up.
Jiang Xiyu, biting into a rib, looked up and glared at him.
Bai Chengci paused for a moment, then silently took the rice bucket and bowl next to Jiang Xiyu's hand and served him rice.
"..."
Jiang Xiyu chewed the ribs and finally couldn't help but say, "Bai Chengci, are you a servant? Who told you to pour me water and serve me rice? I have my own hands."
The voice wasn't deliberately lowered, so the people sitting nearby all looked over.
The waiter heard the commotion and came over to ask, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Jiang Xiyu felt the gazes falling on her, and tried to keep her tone normal: "No."
The waiter glanced at Bai Chengci again.
Bai Chengci remained silent.
The waiter smiled and said, "Okay, sorry to bother you."
The attention of the others gradually shifted away, and a girl sitting at the next table became somewhat dissatisfied with her boyfriend who was only focused on eating.
"Look at you, other men are so considerate to their friends, are you a pig? All you know is how to eat, you don't care about my feelings at all."
"I'm sorry, honey, I'll peel crayfish for you right now."
The girl was slightly satisfied.
Bai Chengci glanced at their dishes, then at her own.
Without lobsters, you can't peel them.
Seeing that he was staring at the food without moving, Jiang Xiyu said unhappily, "What are you still standing there for? Eat quickly."
Bai Chengci then moved her chopsticks and continued eating.
Seeing that he was eating slowly, Jiang Xiyu simply sat down and leaned against the wall next to him, watching him eat.
As a result, Bai Chengci ate slower and slower.
About twenty minutes later, the young couple at the next table left.
Jiang Xiyu, seeing Bai Chengci waiting like a hamster, got a little annoyed and reminded her, "Can you eat faster?"
Bai Chengci looked up at him, then put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth with a tissue.
Jiang Xiyu: "..."
Regardless of whether he had eaten his fill or not, Jiang Xiyu got up and left.
Bai Chengci took the bottle of carbonated drink and followed.
Once outside the alley, Jiang Xiyu took out her phone and hailed a taxi.
Bai Chengci stood beside him, looking at Jiang Xiyu without any intention of taking a taxi.
Jiang Xiyu ignored him, waited for the car to arrive, got in, and closed the door.
The driver asked, "Isn't your friend getting on?"
Jiang Xiyu looked through the car window at Bai Chengci standing there like a robot, then rolled down the window and said, "Take a taxi home yourself."
Bai Chengci did not answer immediately, but silently wiped the sweat from her forehead and swayed slightly.
Jiang Xiyu said angrily, "Speak up."
Bai Chengci bent down slightly, meeting Jiang Xiyu's gaze, and replied softly, "Sorry, I've never taken a taxi before, so I'm not very good at it."
driver:"……"
Jiang Xiyu: "..."
After nearly half a minute of dead silence, Jiang Xiyu opened the car door again.
Bai Chengci sat down, and Jiang Xiyu moved a little to the middle, with the person sitting next to her also moving closer.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiyu sat down by the window, but because the car was small, she had to keep her legs open.
He was used to sitting however he was comfortable, but the next second, he felt something close behind him.
Bai Chengci looked out the window, but her legs were in the same position as Jiang Xiyu's.
One person is fine, but two tall people, almost 1.9 meters tall, with their long legs spread apart, can only stand close together.
It's hot.
Even though the air conditioning was on, Jiang Xiyu could still faintly feel the temperature on Bai Chengci's legs.
Jiang Xiyu nudged Bai Chengci's leg with his knee and said coldly, "Can't you pull your leg back a little?"
Bai Chengci turned her head and then gently crossed her legs.
"Sorry, the car is a bit too small."
driver:"?"
Bai Chengci looked at Jiang Xiyu, remained silent for a while, and then said indifferently, "If you are not comfortable, you can straddle my lap, I don't mind."
Upon hearing this, the driver's eyes widened suddenly, and he foolishly glanced into the side mirror.
Bai Chengci glanced at the rearview mirror out of the corner of her eye, her expression unchanged despite the driver's gossipy gaze. She quickly looked away, her eyes fixed intently on Jiang Xiyu, showing no sign of joking.
Jiang Xiyu: "..."
Damn it, I want to jump out of the car.
