As soon as the words were spoken, she turned around and handed Bruce to Xu Yisen.
Xu Yisen took Bruce, reached out to pet the obedient dog nestled in his arms, a faint smile curled at the corner of his lips, "Looks like you’re getting along well with the little guy."
Qin Muni stared at Bruce in his arms, her mouth slightly upturned, her smile warm and beautiful, "Not bad. By the way, his name is Bruce."
"Oh, hello Bruce, I’m Yisen."
The way he warmly greeted Bruce made Qin Muni chuckle. After glancing at the man and dog, she turned and went upstairs to change her clothes.
When Qin Muni came downstairs after changing, she saw Xu Yisen sitting on the sofa playing with Bruce. In just a short time, the person and the dog seemed to be getting along well.
Upon hearing the soft footsteps, Xu Yisen lifted his gaze with a smile, looking towards Qin Muni as she elegantly approached.
Xu Yisen put the chew stick into Bruce’s mouth, then picked up the coat beside him and stood up, calmly putting it on.
He took a few steps towards Qin Muni, habitually wanting to reach out and hold her hand.
However, Qin Muni seemed to see through his intention, and just as he was about to reach out, she took the lead by starting to walk, muttering as she went, "This weather is perfect for hot pot, why don’t we go for hot pot?"
Seeing she seemed slightly resistant to his touch, Xu Yisen had no choice but to give up, following behind her, responding gently, "Sure, up to you."
Qin Muni originally thought Xu Yisen was going with her to the hot pot restaurant, but unexpectedly, the car stopped at the parking lot of a nearby supermarket.
She tilted her head slightly in confusion, staring at Xu Yisen, and asked, "Why are we at the supermarket?"
"To buy ingredients."
"Aren’t we... going to the hot pot restaurant?"
Xu Yisen turned his head, giving Qin Muni a faint smile.
The parking lot lights shone through the car windows onto his clean and distinct features, his smile between his brows like a warm sunbeam piercing through winter clouds, radiating enchanting brilliance.
Qin Muni somewhat dazedly stared at his smiling face, her heart uncontrollably speeding up.
"I kind of miss your cooking."
His voice was clear and pleasant, inexplicably stirring Qin Muni’s heartstrings.
Qin Muni hurriedly withdrew her gaze from his face, reached out to unbuckle her seatbelt, opened the car door, and got out.
The chilly air outside rushed in, instantly clearing her slightly dazed mind.
Xu Yisen also got out of the car, and they entered the supermarket one after the other.
The lighting inside the supermarket was much brighter than in the parking lot. As he lowered his gaze slightly, he could see Qin Muni’s face beside him had turned a thin layer of red.
"Hm?" Qin Muni raised her brows in confusion.
"Your face is very red."
Realizing his meaning, Qin Muni felt her face seemed even hotter.
She had no choice but to go along with Xu Yisen’s words, nodding heavily, pretending to complain, "The heating in the supermarket seems to be a bit strong, it’s really hot." Amidst saying this, she pretended to fan herself with her hand.
Xu Yisen pushed the shopping cart, turning his gaze to the food shelves on one side, not noticing the fleeting unease on her face.
"Oh, and I heard Wu Yuchen is about to give birth?"
Wu Yuchen was the most popular model before Xia Yuge entered Van Shuo Entertainment Company.
But because she accidentally complained about Xia Yuge to the general manager, she was terminated by the company.
Qin Muni and Wu Yuchen have always had a good relationship. Although she moved to another city over the years, they’ve kept in touch.
