Chapter 165



Bai Qi watched as Zhang Li Xue took a bite of the chicken wings and was glad that she seemed to like the taste. The chicken wings were soft and tender and it was not as greasy as they have thought.

It seemed that the reviews on the internet did not disappoint them.

The two of them began to eat while discussing the food. As they both were someone who knew how to cook, they began to discuss the recipes.

Zhang Li Xue watched as Bai Qi explained the cooking method to prepare the dessert and smiled.

She noticed that Bai Qi was a lot livelier than before.

He told her before that the matter at his workplace has been resolved and it was all because she had advised him to talk to her Uncle Qi Zheng.

Zhang Li Xue thought that Bai Qi looked better this way. His face looked better when he was in a good mood. It felt like he was a lot more confident and good-looking than the time he was in a foul mood.

She kind of liked how he looked at this moment.

.....

After the meal, Bai Qi paid for their meal and the two of them left the restaurant. They followed the crowd and headed to the park to check out the festivity that was going on.

Zhang Li Xue did not dare to be absentminded as she was afraid that they were going to be separated by the crowd again.

As she was struggling to walk through the sea of people, a warm palm held her wrist before their hands were intertwined.

Zhang Li Xue looked up and saw that Bai Qi was looking at her.

“Is this alright?” Bai Qi asked.

“It’s fine.” Zhang Li Xue nodded.

It’s better to hold hands than to get separated. Therefore, Zhang Li Xue did not think too much about it. Anyway, they had already held hands earlier.

Because of the crowd, Bai Qi had to walk in the front while Zhang Li Xue was walking behind him.

Zhang Li Xue thought that walking like this was quite good too. This way, she did not have to look at where she was walking and let Bai Qi lead her.

As the thought came to her mind, Zhang Li Xue began to giggle. She looked up and stared at Bai Qi’s wide back.

For a while, she seemed to be in a trance.

Bai Qi was wearing a light-colored shirt. It was a hot day and his back seemed a little wet from his sweat. Because of this, she could almost see the muscle on his back.

It seemed that Bai Qi had grown taller and had quite a nice build too. She could almost see the way his muscle rippled each time he moved. His shoulder was wide enough to block her from seeing what was in front of her, but it also made her feel safer.

Then, Zhang Li Xue realized that this man was silently protecting her from the crowd, blocking her from bumping into another person.

Her heart skipped a beat and Zhang Li Xue began to look away.

Without knowing why she could feel the way her face heating up and it was not because of the weather.

Her gaze fell on their locked hands.

Initially, Zhang Li Xue did not think too much about holding hands with Bai Qi. In her mind, Bai Qi was only keeping her safe and it would prevent them from getting separated again.

Moreover, she was used to holding hands with her brother as well as the triplets.

It was only now that she realized that holding hands with Bai Qi was different.

His hand was big that he could cover her hands. They were warm and strong.

Her heartbeat gradually escalated.

She was aware that there was something strange going on with her.

It was at this time that she seemed to recall something that Fang Su Jin had said earlier.

Now that she analyzed her situation, this scene really felt like a date, wasn’t it?

The two of them were going for a walk and holding hands... Wasn’t this something that would happen on a date?

Zhang Li Xue quickly scolded herself.

Bai Qi was only inviting her to this meal to thank her. She shouldn’t be having such impure thoughts.

Zhang Li Xue was too preoccupied with her thoughts that she did not notice that Bai Qi had gradually slowed down before coming to a stop.

“Where do you want to go first?”

His voice snapped her out of her trance.

When Zhang Li Xue tilted her head to look up, Bai Qi’s tall figure was blocking the sun from her face. For a while, his face was the only thing that she could see.

“Should we go and check what they have around here?” Bai Qi asked again when she did not answer. “There should be a directory somewhere.”

“Un.” Zhang Li Xue gave him a quick nod. “Let’s just look at the directory first. I think I saw it on the website.” Using her free hand, Zhang Li Xue took out her phone to check on the listing.

She was aware that pulling her hand away from Bai Qi’s would make it easier for her to use her phone, but without knowing why, she was not willing to do it.

Zhang Li Xue lowered her head to look at her phone while trying her best to act naturally. She hoped that Bai Qi would not be able to notice that she was acting strangely.

“There are a lot of food stalls around,” Bai Qi commented. “Do you want to go and look at them?” He knew that this girl was a foodie and wanted to tempt her with her favorite things.

But the moment Bai Qi spoke, Zhang Li Xue began to stiffen.

Bai Qi was leaning over to look at the directory on her phone and he was standing too close. She could pick up the faint scent of disinfectant on his body.

“Are you alright?” Bai QI asked when he noticed that a certain someone seemed to be in a trance.

“I’m fine.” Zhang Li Xue looked up and flashed a smile. “Let’s go and walk around to look at the stalls first. Mmm... How about going to a less crowded place?”

Without waiting for his reply, Zhang Li Xue tugged his hand, while voiding from looking at his face.
