Chapter 248 - Sneak a Look 2

If the other party was not stupid, he could probably tell.

“Then what should I do? Xiaoling, I can’t control myself. Sigh… I want to leave but I don’t. I’m so conflicted—”

Chen Daniu looked hesitant and conflicted. She really couldn’t control herself. Just thinking about it gave her a strange feeling.

It felt wrong no matter how she sat, so she kept moving around.

At the thought that she would see him soon, her face was unusually red. She felt hot herself.

She must be very strange like this.

Chen Daniu couldn’t help but cover her red cheeks with both hands, looking distressed and expectant.

Su Xiaoling laughed and said, “Alright, alright. Actually, it’s normal for him to be able to tell. He’s not stupid. If he can tell, so be it.”

It seemed like they were going to meet in the first place. After the date set by her family, they would meet like this. Chen Daniu was just meeting him in advance.

As long as the other party was not stupid, he could sense it.

Besides, Chen Daniu was so special. It was normal for her to be noticed by him.

“Ah… what should I do? It’s not even time yet… can I, can I go now?”

Chen Daniu looked distressed. She was both in pain and happy.

She wanted to leave like this, but also did not want to.

She was afraid that he wouldn’t take a fancy to her when he came, but she also couldn’t help but wonder if he would think that she was special.

She was going to meet him anyway. She actually wanted to see more of him.

Su Xiaoling smiled and comforted her. “Don’t worry, don’t worry. You’re so cute. You’re the best.”

Chen Daniu was even more uneasy.

She looked at the door and said to Xiaoling, “Xiaoling, let’s change seats. I’m facing the door. I, I…”

The back of her face was redder than a cooked shrimp. Wouldn’t anyone be able to tell that something was wrong with her the moment they arrived?

Su Xiaoling smiled and shook her head. “I think your seat is very good. I won’t change it.”

Since Su Xiaoling refused to change, it was useless no matter what Chen Daniu said.

Chen Daniu had no choice but to give up on this thought. She waited shyly and expectantly, glancing at the door from time to time.

After a while, the noodle shop waiter led someone over.

The newcomer was also in his late teens.

Xu Bowen rushed over and immediately saw the red-faced Chen Daniu.

Their gazes met. Both of them were stunned for a few seconds before Chen Daniu lowered her eyes shyly.

Xu Bowen looked away, too.

The waiter ushered him to an empty table to one side and went to work.

It didn’t take long for the noodles to arrive.

Chen Daniu and Su Xiaoling slowly ate their noodles.

Xu Bowen also ate his noodles slowly.

Xu Bowen finished his noodles, called the waiter over, and said, “If you won’t say who invited me, I won’t ask. Please send my thanks and I’ll take my leave.”

Xu Bowen cupped his hands and left.

After Xu Bowen left, the waiter came over to Chen Daniu and Su Xiaoling. He smiled and said, “Ladies, did you hear that? The guest just now asked me to thank you.”

“I hear you, I hear you.”

Chen Daniu’s voice was thinner than a mosquito’s.

The clerk laughed and walked away to get busy.

Su Xiaoling smiled and said, “We can go back now, right?”

Chen Daniu nodded.

They got up and left the noodle shop.

Chen Daniu kept touching her cheek and tried to calm down for a long time before the blush on her cheeks subsided.

She said gratefully to Xiaoling, “Xiaoling, thank you.”

Today, she met the person she was going to start seeing. She knew what he looked like.

Xu Bowen didn’t look outstanding. He had very ordinary looks. She didn’t hate him.

Instead, she heaved a sigh of relief. Only someone with ordinary looks could fall for someone as ordinary as her.

Su Xiaoling and Chen Daniu walked slowly.

Su Xiaoling was also happy for her. Seeing that she had calmed down, Su Xiaoling said to her, “Now that you’ve seen him, let’s go back and wait patiently.”

Chen Daniu nodded. “Yes, yes.”

She was in a good mood, already looking forward to the coming days.

Su Xiaoling smiled. She was thinking more than Chen Daniu. Chen Daniu and Xu Bowen had met. If Xu Bowen was interested, then nothing would change.

If he didn’t want it, he wouldn’t meet Chen Daniu after this.

Now that Chen Daniu was looking forward to it, Su Xiaoling really couldn’t bear to tell her this.

Chen Daniu wasn’t stupid. She would think of this when she calmed down.

They returned to the shop and helped to clean up as usual.

Madam Zhao asked, “How is it? Did you buy anything you like?”

When Su Xiaoling and Chen Daniu went out, they used the excuse of buying something.

Chen Daniu had forgotten. Su Xiaoling reacted quickly and shook her head gently. “We didn’t buy anything. We didn’t like it after taking a look, so we didn’t buy it. I’ll buy it next time I see something I like.”

Madam Zhao smiled and said, “Alright, as long as you like it.”

The children had grown up and had their own preferences. Usually, they would keep some of the red packets from the New Year to buy what they liked.

Since it was their own preferences, they naturally had to choose what they liked.

Chen Daniu heaved a sigh of relief and smiled at Su Xiaoling.

Su Xiaoling smiled back.

Chen Erniu secretly looked at her sister, then at Su Xiaoling. In the end, she pretended not to know anything.

They went back together after Su Chong and Su Hua finished school.

Su Xiaolu and Gui You followed Xu Bowen and watched him enter the academy.

Su Xiaolu thought for a moment and asked, “Master Gui You, what do you think of this person?”

Gui You was very calm. “He’s okay. Just your average guy.”

Xu Bowen might not be outstanding, but he was at least upright and had no bad habits.

So it wasn’t bad if Chen Daniu really became his girlfriend.

“We’ve seen enough. We should go back.”

Gui You looked at Su Xiaolu and said.

Su Xiaolu nodded. Since she had seen it, it was time to go back.

Her curiosity was satisfied, too.

Su Xiaolu and Gui You left the teahouse. Su Xiaolu felt a pain in her forehead and covered it with her hand.

Gui You said coldly, “Next time, no eavesdropping.”

Su Xiaolu nodded with a smile. “Okay.”

The master and disciple left together.

As soon as they returned home, Gui You asked Su Xiaolu to bring her sword.

Knowing that she was in the wrong, Su Xiaolu did not resist. She raised her sword and attacked.

The consequence, of course, was that she could not get up after being abused.

Su Chong happened to be back too.

Gui You said, “Su Chong, come.”

“Yes.”

Su Chong put down his book bag and asked Su Hua to bring it into the house. He went into the courtyard, took the sword Gui You threw, and fought him.

Su Xiaolu lay on the ground and silently moved to the corner.

It was not enough to hurt her when experts fought, but the sand they inadvertently raised hurt her face.

Su Xiaolu tilted her head and watched enviously.

Her big brother was really handsome. Unknowingly, he was an expert.

Su Hua and Zhou Heng came over and helped Su Xiaolu up. They watched the two with Su Xiaolu. Su Xiaolu tilted her head and leaned on Su Hua’s shoulder. “Second Brother, when do you think I can be as powerful as Big Brother?”

She cried with envy. Big Brother was really playing with her usually.
