Chapter 871: 877 But I Want You to Take Responsibility (2)
Wen Nuan, "..."
Qin Shaojin helped Wen Nuan fasten her seatbelt, glanced at her staring at him, closed the car door, and got into the driver’s seat.
He looked at his watch; it was almost noon. He drove to a restaurant, parked the car, and looked at Wen Nuan, "Let me treat you to lunch."
Wen Nuan quickly spoke up, "No need."
Qin Shaojin glanced at Wen Nuan, "Then let’s go Dutch."
Wen Nuan got out of the car, feeling her stomach growling with hunger. If she’s paying her own way, why not first resolve her hunger?
Entering the restaurant, she saw Qin Shaojin sitting by the window. She followed him but circled around to sit at a table far from Qin Shaojin.
Qin Shaojin took one look, stood up, walked over to Wen Nuan’s table, and sat across from her.
Wen Nuan looked at Qin Shaojin, "Wasn’t it... going Dutch? We should eat separately."
Qin Shaojin lit a cigarette, looking at Wen Nuan, "One table, Dutch treat."
Wen Nuan didn’t dare to look at Qin Shaojin; his words still echoed in her mind.
Qin Shaojin turned to the waiter, "Menu for the lady."
The waiter responded, fetched the menu, and respectfully handed it to Wen Nuan.
Wen Nuan took it, ordered her favorites, and handed the menu to Qin Shaojin.
Qin Shaojin took it, glanced at it, and set it aside, "I’ll have the same as her."
Wen Nuan couldn’t help but look at Qin Shaojin, What the heck is this?
Qin Shaojin ignored Wen Nuan’s gaze, picked up his phone, glanced at the photo of the bloodstain on the sheets, and looked at Wen Nuan again. Could a girl’s first time mean so little to her?
Wen Nuan felt Qin Shaojin’s gaze was odd and turned to look out the window.
After a while, Qin Shaojin asked, "Between me and Yu Zimu, who do you like more?"
Wen Nuan didn’t think and blurted out, "Brother Mu."
As soon as the words left her mouth, something felt off. She looked at Qin Shaojin. What... what did he mean by asking this?
Qin Shaojin took a drag, "Why do you like Yu Zimu?"
"He... he’s got a good personality."
Wen Nuan regretted it immediately, realizing it seemed like there was an implied meaning.
Qin Shaojin turned his head and brushed off the cigarette ash forcefully, "Am I not good-natured?"
"Just a little bit."
Wen Nuan puffed her cheeks, thinking she shouldn’t be too direct. Wasn’t that subtle enough?
Remembering that Qin Shaojin was a substitute teacher for law cases, she worried, What if this guy holds a grudge? Will he take personal revenge?
She anxiously watched Qin Shaojin.
Qin Shaojin remained silent, looking out the window. Was his personality really not good?
Yu Zimu’s personality was good? Yu Zimu changes women faster than he changes clothes, while he never even had a girlfriend.
After a calm moment, he looked at Wen Nuan, "What about my personality isn’t good?"
Wen Nuan carefully thought about it. There’s nothing wrong, it’s just that he always bullies her! She just said it casually. How was she supposed to answer such a question?
Seeing the food arrive, she quickly changed the topic, "The food’s here, yours."
"You eat first."
Qin Shaojin looked at Wen Nuan. Could it be that from yesterday to now, she really hadn’t felt a single thing?
His gaze dropped, noticing the wound on Wen Nuan’s knee. He softly asked, "Does it still hurt?"
"It hurts, of course it hurts. It’s my first time!"
Wen Nuan couldn’t help but grit her teeth.
Qin Shaojin rubbed his wrist, looking at Wen Nuan, "I was asking about your knee."
Wen Nuan saw the waiter staring at her, glanced over, and instantly blushed as she remembered what she had just said.
She let out an "oh," picked up her chopsticks, bowed her head, and quietly ate her food.
