Chapter 957 Wu Xie (12)
The aroma of food gradually wafted from the kitchen.
Yun Ci raised her head from Wu Xie's shoulder: "It's braised pork."
"There are also chicken and duck." Fatty Wang brought a plate of fried food and put it on the table. "I fried this specially for the girls. Eat while watching TV. You girls should like this."
Wu Xie stood up and tried to pinch him, but was slapped in the face by Fatty Wang.
The two of them started arguing with each other.
Yun Ci watched with a smile.
When the dishes were served, Fatty Wang took out two bottles of wine and said he wanted to celebrate.
He looked extremely happy, and it was unclear whether he was excited that the Wang family had finally been resolved, or he was excited that Wu Xie now could show some of his former innocence.
After dinner, Wu Xie prepared to send Yun Ci home.
"Wait, wait." Fatty Wang called out, taking out a box of stewed food he had cooked from the kitchen, "Here, take it and eat it on the way."
After saying that, he patted Wu Xie on the shoulder, leaned close to him and whispered, "I won't leave the door open for you tonight."
Wu Xie choked and subconsciously looked at Yun Ci.
Yun Ci, as if she had heard nothing, smiled at Wu Xie.
Fatty Wang pushed Wu Xie from behind and said, "Okay, let's go."
Wu Xie staggered to a stop beside Yun Ci, smiled helplessly, and then waved goodbye to Fatty Wang.
The two came to the car that Wu Xie had someone leave behind and drove all the way to the apartment building where Yun Ci lived - Yun Ci didn't drink, so she sat in the driver's seat.
It was already past nine o'clock and there were fewer cars on the street, so the two of them didn't get stuck in traffic, but they still drove very slowly the whole way.
There was soft music playing in the car. Yun Ci and Wu Xie held hands together the whole time and never separated.
——It’s like going back to the time when we were in college and in love.
“It’s like going back to when we were in college.”
Yun Ci looked at Wu Xie with a smile: "I didn't think you could read my mind."
"Or maybe we can say that we are in tune with each other?"
Yun Ci steered the car with one hand and parked it in the parking lot in front of the apartment building.
The braised food prepared by Fatty Wang has already gone cold, but fortunately, braised food can be eaten even when it is cold and it does not affect the taste.
"There's nothing to eat at home. Let's go to the convenience store and buy some."
Wu Xie responded and followed Yun Ci into the 24-hour convenience store near the apartment building.
"Would you like some more?"
"I also can."
"It would be more perfect with some wine."
Yun Ci squatted in front of the wine rack and took out a bottle of white wine and a few bottles of delicious cocktails. Wu Xie was carrying a box of small-packaged and canned beer. After thinking for a while, he took out two bottles of white wine.
The guy on night shift at the convenience store was a young man. He saw Wu Xie carrying so much wine over, and then he looked at Yun Ci who was picking snacks on the other side.
"Hey, man, are you sure you don't need these?"
The young man glanced at the adult counter on the other side.
Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, then smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, but it's not necessary."
Yunci came over with a shopping basket, which contained only a large bag of old-fashioned shrimp crackers and a large bag of old-fashioned potato chips.
"Just this?"
Yun Ci nodded: "After looking around, I just want to eat this."
Wu Xie took out the snacks, paid the bill, and he and Yun Ci each carried some wine, chatting as they walked home.
"Then let's go to the big supermarket tomorrow. There will be more things there..."
Yun Ci took out the key and opened the door. The house had been cleaned when she returned to Beijing, so it was very clean.
Wu Xie stood at the entrance holding the wine, and said with a smile: "Do you have my slippers to wear this time?"
Yun Ci put the things on the cabinet in the entrance hall, took out a pair of new men's slippers from the shoe cabinet, and placed them in front of Wu Xie.
"Come and see if it fits."
"It looks like it will fit."
Wu Xie put on his slippers and took two steps.
"Yeah, very good."
He placed the wine on the coffee table and then went to pick up the bag from the entrance.
Yun Ci turned on the air conditioner and took off her coat.
"I want to take a shower first."
I also want to wash the clothes I have worn all day.
Wu Xie nodded slowly: "Then I'll wait for you."
Yun Ci leaned against the wall and made a pinky promise to Wu Xie: "Aren't you coming with us?"
Wu Xie said sincerely: "Xiao Ci, don't be too confident in my self-control."
When he came here today, he really didn't have those thoughts.
Yun Ci asked again: "Really not together?"
“…I didn’t bring any change of clothes.”
"I have a bathrobe for you to wear." Yun Ci pointed to the washing machine, "Wash the clothes later. They will dry quickly in this weather."
Wu Xie didn't refuse again.
"You go in first, I'll wash the clothes and then go in."
It is common for grown men to run around in their shorts.
Anyway, Yun Ci had seen him in just his shorts countless times, so Wu Xie didn't feel embarrassed at all.
The washroom is separated into dry and wet areas, with a bathroom on one side and a toilet on the other, and the washbasin is in the gap between the two doors.
Yun Ci took off her outer clothes and threw them directly into the dirty clothes basket next to the sink. She also put her underwear in a small basket specially used for storage and would wash it by hand after taking a shower.
Although the house is not big and the bathroom is not as big as the previous place, Yunci still built a small bathtub for sitting and soaking in the corner with bricks.
Yunci filled the bathtub with water and scrubbed the shower area carefully before soaking in the bathtub cleanly.
"Wu Xie, are you not okay yet?" Yun Ci asked, pressing her face against the wall of the bathtub.
Wu Xie has been washing outside since just now. Why does it take so long?
"It'll be ready soon."
Wu Xie hung the underwear of both people on the clothes rack and temporarily placed it in the bathroom. He would put on his clothes later and then move them to the balcony.
He opened the door and met Yun Ci's eyes with his naked butt.
Wu Xie covered his treasure with his hands and turned his body uncomfortably.
"……how?"
Yun Ci shook her head: "Hurry up and wash, the shower gel is that one, and the one for scrubbing your body is that one..."
Wu Xie gradually got used to the sound of splashing water.
Just watch it, it’s going to be meaty anyway.
He gradually relaxed and began to rub, but when he turned around, Yun Ci had her eyes closed and didn't even look at him.
Wu Xie: "..."
He rinsed off the foam on his body, took down the handheld shower, and rinsed the floor clean before squatting beside the bathtub and patting Yun Ci's shoulder.
"Make room for me."
Yun Ci opened her eyes, moved forward, and sat down, hugging her legs.
Wu Xie sat directly behind Yun Ci, and a large amount of warm water splashed out.
"You can stretch your legs here."
Wu Xie seemed to have his neck stuck and made a "hmm" sound.
Yun Ci leaned directly into Wu Xie's arms, tilted her head on his shoulder, and said lazily with her eyes closed:
"If you feel the water isn't hot enough, tell me and I'll add some more hot water."
Wu Xie hummed again, and the strange voice made Yun Ci laugh.
"What are you playing at?"
Wu Xie touched his nose uncomfortably, tilted his head towards Yun Ci's head, and said in self-abandonment:
"I... this is the first time I take a bath like this with a girl..."
