After Flirting with the God-Tier Beautiful Tycoon - Chapter 20

Hearing Chen Yi say she hadn’t eaten yet, Shen Xiaojiang instinctively looked up, “Are you hungry?”

After she spoke, she felt that her shift in attitude was too quick and awkwardly lowered her head again.

Cute.

Chen Yi almost said the word out loud.

Her eyes moved slightly, and after a second, she replied, “Mm, a little.”

Shen Xiaojiang glanced at He Zhong in the distance.

Chen Yi said softly, “Don’t worry about him. Your dean will treat him to lunch.”

“Huh?” Shen Xiaojiang looked back at Chen Yi, “Then what about you?”

“I don’t want to go,” Chen Yi said, her eyes twinkling with a smile.

Despite her devastatingly beautiful looks, Shen Xiaojiang saw a glimpse of a girl’s playfulness and willfulness in those star-like eyes.

Shen Xiaojiang was momentarily distracted, but she quickly came to her senses and said, “Since you haven’t eaten, then… I’ll eat with you. I just didn’t eat enough.”

“Oh?” Chen Yi’s narrow, phoenix-like eyes narrowed slightly.

“Really,” Shen Xiaojiang touched her stomach.

Shen Xiaojiang’s fingers were very long, longer than those of an average girl.

Her nails were neatly clipped and rounded, and the nail beds had a healthy sheen.

The veins on the back of her hands were defined, making them look quite strong.

“Then what shall we eat?” Chen Yi had a thin black cardigan draped over her arm. She asked while putting the cardigan on.

Shen Xiaojiang looked back at her, “Auntie, what would you like to eat?”

“I’ll follow your plan,” Chen Yi once again handed the decision-making power to Shen Xiaojiang.

“Hmm… I’m not picky about food, so I can’t think of anything special to treat you to. If you don’t mind, I’ll take you to our school’s snack street. There’s a small wonton shop there that gets pretty good reviews,” Shen Xiaojiang finished, her face beaming with a happy smile. “The proprietress is also very warm and often gives me extra ones!”

Perhaps she was influenced by Shen Xiaojiang’s smile, but Chen Yi, who never ate wontons, actually nodded.

It was already past the lunch rush, so there was no need to queue, and the two of them sat in a spot with a good view.

Shen Xiaojiang and Sun Jiabao often ate there. Every time, Sun Jiabao would wipe the table for her and hand her disposable chopsticks and a spoon.

Today, she wanted to serve Chen Yi for a change.

Before Chen Yi even sat down, Shen Xiaojiang had already started working, wiping the table repeatedly until no grease was visible.

Chen Yi acted very naturally and did not refuse.

After Shen Xiaojiang finished wiping, Chen Yi rested her hands on the table, cupped her chin, and looked at the menu on the wall, “Do you have any recommendations?”

Shen Xiaojiang thought seriously for a few seconds and said, “Jiabao and I eat here a lot. She usually orders the Three Delicacies one, and I order the Shepherd’s Purse one.”

Chen Yi pondered for a moment, licked her lips, and said, “I’ll order the same as you.”

Shen Xiaojiang glanced at Chen Yi’s glistening lips and nodded repeatedly.

While waiting for the wontons, the two fell into a slight silence, each with her own thoughts.

“Why did you call me just now?” Shen Xiaojiang asked first.

Chen Yi said in a soft, gentle voice, “The moment I saw you, I wanted to call you.”

This was one of Chen Yi’s usual flirting techniques, and Shen Xiaojiang didn’t quite know how to handle it.

What exactly was she hoping for?

Chen Yi continued, “Then, why did you just emphasize that I am your Auntie, and specifically, your best friend’s auntie?”

“Because, that’s a fact,” Shen Xiaojiang never beat around the bush. “Otherwise, what should I call you?”

Chen Yi didn’t rush to answer.

Shen Xiaojiang said a little defiantly, “Should I call you ‘An acquaintance’ instead?”

Chen Yi’s eyes widened slightly, then suddenly narrowed as she let out a “pfft” of laughter, “So, you didn’t like what the dean said?”

“That’s right, I feel like we’ve met so many times, calling you ‘an acquaintance’ is a bit…” Shen Xiaojiang poked the vinegar dish in front of her with a chopstick.

“Then what do you want to call me?” Chen Yi also broke apart a pair of disposable chopsticks.

Suddenly, she used her own chopstick to gently clamp Shen Xiaojiang’s chopstick. Her lowered eyes slowly lifted, and her lower lip, which she had been biting, released and became full and alluring.

“Ah?” Shen Xiaojiang looked up, her gaze falling squarely on Chen Yi’s lips again.

They looked so soft, so kissable.

Chen Yi showed a barely noticeable smile.

Then, she leaned in a little closer, her speech very slow, as if every word was soaked in alcohol, intoxicatingly so, “Then, what do you think our relationship is?”
