Ran Xiangsi knew he was looking over, so she also raised her eyes to meet his gaze.
Their eyes met openly, and neither of them looked away first.
It’s said that the eyes are the windows to the soul; communicating with each other, apart from language, eye contact is the most direct and penetrating.
"Meow..." Just at this moment, a scratchy cat call came over.
Xiangsi instinctively turned her head to look, only to see at the stairwell on the second floor, a fat, yellow Garfield cat leisurely hopping down from the stairs.
This cat was extremely arrogant, just glanced at Ran Xiangsi, not afraid of this stranger, leisurely walked by her, and then suddenly jumped onto the sofa.
Ran Xiangsi was stunned for a moment, then asked Xing Chen in disbelief, "You have a cat?"
It really didn’t look like it! A person like Xing Chen, actually... keeps a cat?
Xing Chen seemed indifferent to the Garfield cat, and introduced lightly, "My mom sent it over."
"Oh..." Ran Xiangsi nodded, understanding.
It turned out to be his mom who sent it, she thought so, people like Xing Chen, would definitely have a Persian cat, that would completely match his aura. How could it be a chubby Garfield cat...
After glancing at the Garfield cat a few more times, Ran Xiangsi slapped her forehead, "Oh no, Prince is still at home, how could I forget?"
"Prince?" A deep voice echoed her words, and Xing Chen’s lazy eyes were filled with confusion.
"My dog." Ran Xiangsi quickly responded, "Can I go home now? Prince hasn’t eaten yet..."
"Home?" Xing Chen raised his eyebrows, looking deeper into Ran Xiangsi’s eyes, "Don’t forget, once you’ve signed, you belong to me. I’m here, so here is your home. You’d better get into character soon."
"..." Xiangsi didn’t expect this person to get into character so quickly, chuckling awkwardly, "Actually, it doesn’t matter if I live here or not, after all, we’re just in an agreement marriage. Just showing affection in front of others is enough..."
Agreeing to marry was indeed for mutual benefit, Ran Xiangsi didn’t expect to move in so quickly.
It’s best for them to maintain a distance.
Xing Chen understood Ran Xiangsi’s intention, his thin lips curved slightly into a charming smile, "Since you’ve agreed, then the act should be full-fledged."
"..." This time Ran Xiangsi felt a bit nervous, her face flushed, looking at Xing Chen somewhat helplessly.
This guy, could he be serious?
Could it be true that they would be living together so soon?
Noticing her unease and discomfort, Xing Chen’s lips held a teasing smile, then he spoke gracefully, "Let’s go, I’ll take you back."
After speaking, he already headed towards the door first.
Clearly, she was worried about her dog at home, if he insisted on keeping her tonight, she definitely wouldn’t be at ease.
Ran Xiangsi stood in place, stunned for a moment, then came to her senses, her big eyes blinking rapidly, she finally realized and quickly followed after.
Once again, they were sitting in the Maybach, the atmosphere felt completely different from before.
There was a feeling of... thawing old grudges.
It was probably decided that they would cooperate, and going forward, their identities would be different, Ran Xiangsi felt her mood becoming somewhat strange.
She couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was wrong, she just found herself more frequently, unconsciously looking at the man beside her.
