Chapter 30: Chapter 31: Favorite Beef Noodles
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Unexpectedly, Gu Qichen casually suggested, “Let’s go eat beef noodles.”
Under Xia Yangyang’s guidance, the car soon pulled over outside the food street.
Just as they were about to get out of the car, Xia Yangyang grew worried.
Both she and Gu Qichen were dressed to the nines, and this food street was teeming with students from A University. Going there would inevitably draw attention.
An idea struck Xia Yangyang, and she said to Gu Qichen, “Wait in the car for me, I’ll be right back.”
Upon finishing her sentence, Xia Yangyang opened the car door and got out.
She returned swiftly, her hands full of clothes she had bought from a clothing store near the school – student attire.
Xia Yangyang suggested, “We’re drawing too much attention in our current clothes. Let’s put these on instead. It’s cold outside anyway, so these will keep us warm.”
What Xia Yangyang brought over were two sets of casual hoodies.
When Gu Qichen took a look at them, he chuckled, “Couple outfits?”
Xia Yangyang was taken aback. She hadn’t paid attention when buying them; she merely picked up two items and left. But the colors, styles, and motifs on the chest of the clothes were identical – they were obviously intended as couple outfits.
Xia Yangyang didn’t bother to explain, just saying, “Hurry and put it on. It’s one size fits all; it should fit you.”
The glass of Gu Qichen’s car was a special material. You could see outside from inside the car, but you couldn’t see inside from outside, so changing clothes in the car wasn’t a cause for concern.
A faint smile graced the corner of Gu Qichen’s lips as he leisurely unbuttoned his shirt and put on the hoodie. It must be said: a man like Gu Qichen could make even the act of unbuttoning a shirt look overwhelmingly appealing.
For a moment, Xia Yangyang couldn’t tear her gaze away from him.
Only after Gu Qichen had changed did he flung a glance at Xia Yangyang, “I’ll have to charge if you keep looking.”
Turns out Gu Qichen had known all along that she was watching him.
Xia Yangyang was flustered.
Hastily, she turned away to change her clothes.
Then as though struck by a thought, she said to Gu Qichen, “Turn away.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Qichen gave a light smile: “Why? Weren’t you just watching me? And there isn’t a part of your body I haven’t seen.”
Xia Yangyang’s face was as red as a ripe tomato, and for a while, she couldn’t come up with a retort.
Even though they had indeed already…
But that was different, wasn’t it? At those moments, her consciousness was practically a blur.
Seeing Xia Yangyang’s blushing face, looking both embarrassed and aggrieved, Gu Qichen couldn’t help but want to tease her a little more.
But in the end, true to his gentlemanly manner, Gu Qichen turned away.
Xia Yangyang composed herself for a bit, then carefully started changing her clothes.
But the back of the cherry blossom-colored cheongsam had buttons that she couldn’t reach, no matter how hard she tried. The more impatient she became, the more difficult it was for her to take it off.
Just as Xia Yangyang was growing increasingly frustrated,
Gu Qichen’s serene voice floated over: “Do you need my help?”
Xia Yangyang resigned herself to her fate and let Gu Qichen undo the buttons of the cheongsam.
But after Gu Qichen undid her dress, his hand didn’t leave. Instead, it slid within the cheongsam, encircling her waist.
Before Xia Yangyang could react, Gu Qichen was already kissing her.
Her mind went blank in an instant, and her breath was swiftly taken away.
Several minutes later, Gu Qichen let her go, his voice calm and low: “Alright, time to change.”
Xia Yangyang was still in a daze.
Gu Qichen very much enjoyed seeing her in this dazed state. It was incredibly cutesy.
Gu Qichen smiled, “Do you want me to help you change?”
Xia Yangyang was gradually regaining her clarity.
With swift efficiency, she took off her cheongsam and put on the hoodie.
Gu Qichen watched the whole process, his smile not once receding.
Sometimes, Xia Yangyang really couldn’t stand it.
Why was she so easily flustered, whereas a man like him could remain so composed and lucid in that kind of situation, it was…
