When he was undecided, Li Youxue decided to be honest, so she said in a hurry: "Because you didn't eat."—Indeed, thinking about it this way, Xu Mo who was hungry to accompany his students to do experiments is really pretty pitiful.

"That's good." Xu Mo was not disappointed with this plain-sounding answer, and even touched her cheek with a smile. "Let's eat together."

- It's time to eat!Having been hungry for a long time, Li Youxue breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately jumped out of his arms to unpack the lunch box and tableware, and shared the chopsticks and spoons with him.

Seeing that her eyes were shining with hunger and she still didn't forget to take care of the people around her, Xu Mo laughed dumbly, and was not in a hurry to eat, just holding the chopsticks and spoons in his hand, quietly watching her movements.

When Li Youxue packed the meals, she chose them carefully - she was born in a wealthy family, and she was very picky. She must have vegetables, soups, meat and vegetables when she was a child. She specially packed different dishes for herself and Xu Mo, a total of four dishes and two soups, all chosen according to her preferences.

So, at this time, she was full of ambition and lined up six boxes on the table, then opened the two portions of rice and gave them to herself and Xu Mo respectively, and asked Xu Mo to eat together.

Xu Mo smiled, glanced at the dishes on the table, and understood: "Do you like these? I remember."

...Compared to Xu Mo's habit of never forgetting to care about her at this time, Li Youxue thinks about herself again - the system persuaded her to send a meal, and she chose a dish completely according to her own preferences - these behaviors seem to be He was extraordinarily ruthless, and suddenly felt a little guilty.

Of course, just a little bit.

The two of them sat down and began to eat.Out of a little guilt that was unclear, Li Youxue began to observe Xu Mo's meal without any trace after deliberating over and over again.

This person is very observant when he eats. He doesn't seem to have any particular preferences. He picks up food casually, but he is very attentive when eating, as if he doesn't care what he puts in his mouth at all.

...and still nothing.Li Youxue was depressed for a while, she resolutely gave up this technical work, and continued to bury her head in eating her own food.

However, Xu Mo suddenly called her: "Youxue."

Li Youxue raised her head unpreparedly, and saw that Xu Mo had already scooped up a spoonful of soup and handed it to her mouth.A pair of long and narrow eyes stared at her intently, seeming to imply some kind of expectation.

... Li Youxue sighed in her heart, and opened her mouth resignedly. Seeing Xu Mo's eyes lit up, she fed her the spoonful of soup with an extremely skillful gesture, without spilling a single drop.

Seeing that she really drank the soup obediently, Xu Mo nodded in satisfaction, and while taking back the spoon, he looked at her slightly teasingly: "If you want to know something, you can ask me directly, if you keep staring at me like that, I will tell you nervous."

...was discovered.Li Youxue thought a little seriously.For today's plan, it's useless to cover up, it's better to admit it.

So she nodded: "Oh, okay, what do you like to eat?"

"Me?" Xu Mo thought for a while, showing a regretful expression. "I don't seem to like anything in particular... If I have to say—"

Li Youxue blinked, and heard him clearly saying: "...you did everything for me with your own hands."

"...You, do you have a tendency to masochistic?" No matter how narcissistic you are, you can't admit that you cook well.

"I'm serious." Xu Mo smiled. "I still remember that the soup you made that day was very delicious."

"My soup?" Li Youxue repeated subconsciously, and immediately understood. "Oh, the Sydney pork rib soup that day? My father taught me to stew it. It may be the thing I am best at. It's a pity that your family doesn't have a casserole, otherwise it might taste better."

"So..." Xu Mo nodded thoughtfully. "Then, next time I will prepare a casserole for you in advance."

Li Youxue didn't notice the meaning behind what he said, she nodded indiscriminately, and asked him with interest: "Do you really think it's delicious?"

"Really." Xu Mo stared at her and replied seriously. "I saw that you put a lot of ingredients in the soup and prepared it carefully...I am very happy. For me, there is no better soup than that time."

As he said that, he smiled slightly, as if intentionally put the spoon of soup she had just drank to his lips, licked it lightly, then turned his head to look at her, his eyes were brighter than stars.

Aware of the hints in his action, Li Youxue forced her eyes away from looking at him—horrible!terrible!That spoon was still in her mouth just now!

Probably out of anger, or maybe out of embarrassment, she always felt hot on her face.

"Hehe..." Xu Moyue let out a pleasant chuckle after seeing her reaction to the full. "It's my fault, I won't tease you anymore."

Li Youxue was really fed up with this man's persistent flirting with girls and endless bad tastes, so she deliberately didn't look at him.

"Don't be angry, to make amends, um..." Xu Mo said softly, thinking for a while. "Next time I will cook for you, okay? Huh?"

"Really?" Li Youxue squinted at him because she was curious about the cooking skills that this man had never shown.

"Really." Xu Mo curled his lips. "However, you have to promise me that no matter how ugly I am, you will never make fun of me."

"What's so difficult about this?" Li Youxue patted her chest and promised with integrity. "I believe that no one should be able to cook more unpalatable than me."

Xu Mo was immediately amused by her, petting and helplessly raised his hand to scrape the tip of her nose.

……

"Snack after dinner, do you want to eat?" After eating, Li Youxue found a bag of fresh puffs from another bag - she bought it on the way home from work before, and she planned to treat it as her evening puff. Snacks for watching TV, but if you don't share them, it would be rude, so she extended an invitation to Xu Mo.

Xu Mo was holding a paper cup at the desk to help her pour water. He paused when he heard this, and brought a glass of water over to her and placed it in front of her, looking thoughtful.

Li Youxue raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking that he didn't like sweets, so she took one out of the bag, took a bite, and continued to tell him: "If you want to eat, you can—"

Before she could finish her sentence, Xu Mo, who was standing in front of her, suddenly bent down*, and snatched away the half-bitten puff in her hand.

This situation took a sudden turn, which caught people off guard.Li Youxue opened her eyes wide to look at him and then at his empty fingers, unable to react for a long time.

Xu Mo was very natural. After eating the puffs in his mouth slowly, he didn't forget to hold her right hand that had held the puff and pulled it over, gently licking her fingertips.

"You—" Fingertips, palms, and even arms were trembling unconsciously, and Li Youxue almost couldn't hold back her hand to slap him.

In Xu Mo's pupils, the deep purple color has turned into crimson purple.As he kissed her fingertips, he slightly raised his eyes to look at her, his thick eyelashes flickered slightly: "——very sweet."

These words can be regarded as awakening Li Youxue who was in a state of astonishment, causing her to withdraw her hand in a trembling hastily, and stared at him full of anger and unwillingness: "If you want to eat, take it yourself."

"I'm afraid it won't work." Xu Mo laughed. "Stay any longer, those children may have to wait for a long time... I'd better go and see how the experiment is going."

Knowing that he was leaving, Li Youxue nodded secretly, packed her bag and stood up, planning to leave.

"Are you leaving?" Xu Mo looked down at her and smiled. "Can you stay and wait for me?"

... After confirming the relationship, this guy is really straightforward and presumptuous.Li Youxue thought dissatisfiedly, and shook her head decisively.

Xu Mo seemed to have expected her to make such a choice, and nodded slightly with a smile: "Okay, I'll go tell them and send you back."

"... Where's your sense of responsibility?" Li Youxue really wanted to help her forehead. "At a time like this, the students who are waiting to be fed should be more important, right?"

"Waiting to be fed?" Xu Mo repeated it with great interest, and the smile on his lips deepened. "Unfortunately, in my eyes, nothing is more important than you."

Of course, if you listen to too much sweet talk, you will be immune to it. Li Youxue's expression did not change - even though her heart was already very depressed.

"Be obedient," Xu Mo sighed slightly, and raised his hand to touch the top of her head. "It's not safe recently, I don't worry about you being alone..." When he said this, his gentle tone sounded a bit tough. "I'll take you back first, or stay and wait for me for a while, whichever you want, I'll do whatever you want."

Li Youxue: "...Is this your 'follow me' attitude?"

……

Xu Mo went back to the laboratory to accompany the students to conduct experiments.

Li Youxue thought she was unlucky, eating puffs and lying on the sofa playing with her mobile phone - not that she listened to Xu Mo's words, but her little princess style was used to seeing her go up to the peak, but she really treated Xu Mo like this There's nothing wrong with the worried and tender "I must never lose you" type.

...The soft policy or something, it's super annoying.

Xu Mo went there for a long time, and when Li Youxue was bored, he naturally felt that the time was even longer.With nothing else to do, she simply took a piece of paper for an experiment report spread out on the table, and began to fold the origami crane carelessly.

——She stayed at home for a long time when she was a child, and she is quite skilled in this kind of small handicrafts. She easily folded a big paper crane.

Just as she was earnestly folding down the last step of the paper crane—the wings, the paper crane in her hand was suddenly taken over by a hand that popped out of nowhere.

Li Youxue raised her eyes subconsciously, and saw Xu Mo, who had come back at some point, was holding the paper crane in his left hand, while his right index finger poked the paper crane tentatively.Seeing the paper-folded bird trembling in his palm with a little novelty, he turned his face and smiled at her: "Can you teach me how to fold it?"

His deep purple pupils were clear and transparent, like a pure and ignorant child.
