Ceaseless

Chapter 23

Conscious of losing his composure, Nie Jingze sat back on the chair.

Shen Sui faintly smelled an unusual smell across the table, squinting his eyes to examine him.The sudden knock on the door interrupted the seemingly absent thoughts in his mind.

The waiter who had appeared before pushed the dining cart in to deliver the bottom pot and side dishes. Su Xi placed the bottom pot into the depression on the table, and subconsciously pointed the spicy soup at the direction where Nie Jingze was sitting.

The latter seemed to feel something, and raised his eyes to look at him.

Su Xi was slightly taken aback, and met Nie Jingze's scrutinizing gaze as usual.

Nie Jingze slowly looked away, but a hint of disappointment overflowed inexplicably in his heart.However, the emotion came and went so quickly that Nie Jingze himself had no time to capture and think about it, and finally frowned without a trace.

In the whole dormitory, only Nie Jingze can eat spicy food the best. However, during the two years of studying abroad, affected by the living environment at that time, he became more self-disciplined than when he was in college, and he no longer wanted chili peppers.Therefore, after half a day, the number of chopsticks sticking into the spicy soup can be counted on one's fingers.

Seeing it, Shen Sui stretched out his hand to put a piece of beef in the spicy soup and put it in his mouth. When the spicy taste permeated from between his lips and teeth, Shen Sui recalled the scene of meeting Su Xi in the past two days.When Nie Jingze and Su Xi were together in the past, Su Xi looked down on him, but he used different tricks to punish him.

Now it's a turn of events, but looking at it from beginning to end, Nie Jingze doesn't seem to have made it clear that he wants to punish the other party.On the contrary, he was in high spirits, and he was very enthusiastic about shaving his head.

He swallowed the piece of beef in his mouth, and while raising his hand to signal Su Xi to add chili to the spicy soup, he felt a little tentative.

Su Xi scooped up the peppers in the jar with a spoon and put them in the hot red oil soup. After three spoonfuls, he stopped and asked the other party if it was enough.Shen Sui shook his head leisurely and said, "Not enough."

When a small bottle of chili was added in, Shen Sui finally stopped calling, and instructed him again: "You help me scoop up all the cooked vegetables and meat from the soup."

Su Xi reached for the bowl he had eaten.

Shen Sui pressed down his own bowl and said, "You get a new bowl."

Su Xi faintly understood in his heart, but he still didn't say anything. He took a clean bowl according to his words, scooped the cooked vegetables and meat into the bowl, and the food gradually piled up in the bowl.

Shen Sui held his chin and looked at him, "I remember you don't eat spicy food?"

Su Xi replied: "It turns out that Young Master Shen still remembers such trivial things."

Shen Sui nodded, tapped on the table with his fingers, and changed the subject: "On Valentine's Day in my sophomore year, because I called other people to celebrate Nie Jingze's birthday at the bar, but I didn't inform you, you turned around and asked someone to join me and My ex-girlfriend, do you remember this incident?"

Su Xi was startled when he heard the words, and glanced at Nie Jingze who was sitting opposite Shen Sui from the corner of his eye.

The other party was scrolling through the messages on the phone, but when he heard this, he raised his eyes unexpectedly.After a second of silence, a slight sarcasm floated in his eyes, "You did that?"

Su Xi lowered his eyes, and after a few seconds, calmly met Shen Sui's gaze, "Remember, I apologize." He paused, "If Young Master Nie is still willing to accept."

Shen Sui took the remaining half can of chili, raised his hand and added a spoonful to the bowl, "Eat it." He stretched out his hand and handed out a pair of clean chopsticks, "If you eat the food in the bowl, this matter will be cancelled."

Su Xi took the pair of chopsticks and picked up the bowl.

Shen Sui looked past him, and looked at Nie Jingze calmly.

Nie Jingze's fingertips hanging by his side moved slightly, but he just raised his hand and poured a glass of water into his water glass, without opening his mouth to stop him.

Su Xi picked up the food in the bowl and put it into his mouth, until he swallowed it completely, he didn't show any uncomfortable expression on his face.

Everyone was a little surprised, and Nie Jingze held the water glass tightly, and his eyes were firmly locked on his face.

Shen Sui withdrew his eyes half in surprise and half in thought, his thoughts whirled a thousand times, and finally settled down slowly in a whirl. He was probably infected by Ning Yuan's IQ, and he thought too much about it.

After thinking about it, Shen Sui still felt that he was losing face, so Shen Sui squinted his eyes and turned his head, giving Ning Yuan a malicious look.

Ning Yuan was inexplicably stared at by him, and when he was about to ask, he was stopped by a knock on the door halfway.He put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked back towards the door.

Noisy voices poured in from the hall downstairs, and the manager on duty who I had seen before stood in front of the half-open door, looking at them with apologetic expression.Shen Sui, who was sitting on the outside, got up and walked out, and at the same time closed the door with his backhand, blocking the noisy voices from the door.

Su Xi put down the empty bowl in his hand, took out a tissue and wiped it on his mouth.

As if recalling something from the past, Nie Jingze frowned and looked at his increasingly red lips, the expression on his face was not very good.

He raised his hand subconsciously.

However, the thoughts that drove him to move in his mind were fleeting, and even he himself had no time to realize what he was going to do.The temperature in the water glass had gradually turned cold, Nie Jingze stood up abruptly, and brought the glass to him, "Drink it."

The other party's expression was cold, and it was impossible to clearly detect whether it was mixed with condescending sympathy or charity.He shook his head, didn't reach out to pick it up, and said in a flat, homely tone, "This chili pepper is nothing to me."

When he said such a sentence, it seemed to be stating the facts, and it seemed to be reminding himself all the time.

Nie Jingze's eyes darkened slightly. He thought he would be happy, but he only felt his heart was being clenched tightly.
