Jingcheng scratched his head. “I thought you knew, Miss.”
Qiao Qiao put down her chopsticks and exhaled. “You didn’t make it clear. You only said that 1 don’t have to order lunch. Then I thought he ordered it for me. I didn’t expect him to come down and eat with us.”
Just as he finished speaking, Shao Jingmo’s voice came from the door. “Eat first if you’re hungry. There’s no need to wait for me.” Qiao Qiao turned to look at Shao Jingmo. He must have heard her conversation with Jingcheng. He walked over and draped his jacket over the arm of the sofa, then sat down opposite her. “Just the two of us. As long as I’m not here, you eat first.”
Qiao Qiao looked at the cold and oppressive face opposite her and answered untruthfully, “It’s alright. I’m not very hungry.”
Shao Jingmo looked at her and asked, “Then do you want to eat now or later?”
Qiao Qiao said angrily, “l said I’m not very hungry. It’s not like I’m not eating now. What am I eating later? The leftovers you left behind?”
“If you don’t eat, I’ll wait until you do. There’s no leftovers,” he said.
Qiao Qiao was slightly stunned. Not daring to think too much about it, she picked up her chopsticks. “Then let’s eat.”
Shao Jingmo smiled. Apart from some subtle sounds during the meal, neither of them spoke. In the end, Qiao Qiao put down her chopsticks first. Shao Jingmo looked up and asked her, “Aren’t you going to eat more?”
“I’m full,” she said.
Shao Jingmo did not ask further and continued to eat. The atmosphere between the two of them wasn’t very good. Although Qiao Qiao didn’t speak with a gun and a stick, her tone was cold, making people have no desire to continue the conversation.
She didn’t get up to leave. She just sat there and watched him eat quietly. After staring for a long time, she finally couldn’t suppress her curiosity and asked, “Little Uncle, do you have someone you like?”
Shao Jingmo had already finished his meal and was about to drink a bowl of soup. He looked up at her upon hearing her question.
As they looked at each other, Shao Jingmo!s gaze was deep and obscure. Qiao Qiao couldn’t understand what kind of gaze it was at all, but the nervousness in her eyes was clearly seen by Shao Jingmo.
Qiao Qiao’s expression became unnatural. “l was just asking. I didn’t mean anything else.”
Shao Jingmo put down the bowl of soup. “Did you suddenly want to ask casually, or did you think about it for a long time before asking?”
Why are you asking so clearly!
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips. Her expression was clearly very unnatural, but she still pretended to be calm. “Don’t you think the atmosphere is too quiet? 1 was just looking for a topic to ask. I really didn’t mean anything else.”
After pretending to be calm, she continued the topic in order to make it seem more real. “Little Uncle, you didn’t answer me just now. Is it because you don’t want me to know? Actually, there’s nothing to hide. We both know about our marriage agreement. You won’t interfere in my private love life. It’s the same for me,’
With that, she secretly glanced at Shao Jingmo’s expression. Fortunately, he did not pull a long face. However, he had always been a person who did not show his emotions. She still had to watch his expression.
Shao Jingmo lowered his eyes and looked at the bowl of soup in front of him.
He rejected it faintly. “This is my personal relationship. No comments.”
Qiao Qiao’s small face tightened. “Then if I tell you about my personal relationships first, will you tell me?”
Shao Jingmo looked up at her and said, “Tell me.”
Qiao Qiao asked, “l want a definite answer from you.”
Shao Jingmo’s emotions were as calm as water. “Sure.”
Unexpectedly, he was quite straightforward.
Qiao Qiao leaned forward with her upper body. In order to pry into Shao Jingmo’s personal feelings, she confessed her personal feelings to him. She cleared her throat and said solemnly, “l have someone I like in the capital.” Of course, this person was Li Xiwu!!
Qiao Qiao thought that she had brushed him off, but she ignored Shao Jingmo’s insight. He asked calmly, “Is it that Miss Li?”
Qiao Qiao:
Shao Jingmo smiled playfully. “So your orientation is female.”
Qiao Qiao: ‘
In just two minutes, her orientation was redefined by Shao Jingmo. Qiao Qiao was on the brink of tears. Why was it so difficult to get information out of Shao Jingmo? But at this point, Qiao Qiao still didn’t want to give up. If she couldn’t figure it out, she would just ask directly.
Hence, she mustered her courage. Just as she was about to ask, Shao Jingmo replied calmly, “There’s a girl I’ve liked for years.”
Qiao Qiao’s eyes widened and her voice rose.. “You’ve liked her for many years?”
