We entered the restaurant, and I kept a close eye on Xi Qiao all the way until we sat down, fearing that she might make any abnormal moves.
I didn't make eye contact with the female waitress. Safe.
She didn't take out her phone since we entered. Safe.
She didn't make eye contact with the waitress when ordering. Safe.
She kept looking at me after sitting down. Safe.
Oh my god… what's going on…
Heaven must be watching! Could this guy really have changed?
However, years of experience told me that things were not that simple. Even now, with her hands on her chin and a smile on her face, I didn't feel relaxed at all, but was on high alert.
Is it possible that she's being attacked from the outside…
I looked at the floor-to-ceiling window where the passerby outside seemed normal, not as if they were specifically arranged. There were no suspicious vehicles either; everything appeared orderly.
What about the ceiling…
I looked up to see a ceiling made of fine wood with gentle chandelier light, making the restaurant look very elegant and more like a candlelight dinner place. Most importantly, there were no obvious exit points, making it unlikely for any suspicious person to burst in.
After taking a look at the surrounding diners, I noticed that no one followed us in after we arrived. The waiters were busy with their tables, occasionally delivering flowers to customers.
There seemed to be nothing abnormal during this time, and Xi Qiao kept her eyes on me without any suspicious movement, making her hard to doubt.
Hmmm… could it be that she knew I would be on full guard, so she didn't pull any tricks?
Before the food arrived, I was in deep thought, while Xi Qiao remained silent, her eyes never leaving me.
"So… how was your time in France?" Eventually, I couldn't bear the agony any longer and opened the conversation.
The most fearful aspect of Xi Qiao is that you can never know what she might do next, and you still panic even when she does nothing at all.
But I won't let my guard down so easily, Xi Qiao! I'm not the type of man to be dazzled by beauty.
Because I've never been close to beauty anyway! Hahahaha!
Hahahaha… Ha…
"Let's talk about your experiences in France instead then…"
I didn't want to discuss this topic anymore, for some reason it made my heart feel heavy.
"Darling, what would you like to know?"
Xi Qiao leaned her head against her arms on the table, gazing at me with a gentle look.
"Well, for example…" I pretended not to notice her gaze, stirred the ice cubes in my tea with a spoon, and started to sweat. Struggling to think of a topic.
Come on, think Xiaotian… you can do it… don't let this demoness play you like a puppet. It's time to fight back.
I resolved to use the awkward topic!
"Do couples in French schools usually kiss like crazy with their tongues after class or something?"
The girl at the next table sprayed out a mouthful of water, the waiter almost slipped, and Xi Qiao was momentarily stunned. But my gaze remained unchanged.
Humph humph humph~
This question is like when foreigners ask Chinese, "Do you guys from Guangdong all eat people from Fujian?" It seems innocent, but actually embarrasses the respondent.
With this move, I'll begin my counterattack, Xi Qiao.
I took a sip of the drink, feeling a little smug inside.
"No, they do it during class too."
Gulp…
My cheeks swelled up as I almost spat out a mouthful of water. I managed to swallow it down but my chest felt like it had been punched.
"What… What did you say?""I said they would French kiss during class."
My worldview collapsed.
What is going on... Can it be that Guangdong people not only eat Fujian people but also Hunan people?
This shouldn't be the case... This is not the answer I was looking for!
"Are you joking...?"
"Do you want to see it for yourself in France? Darling~"
I'm scared, really scared. It's too terrifying, just too terrifying.
In any case, I will be played by Xi Qiao between the lines of my thighs, so I might as well just keep my mouth shut.
"Let's eat, haha..."
I awkwardly laughed, trying to pretend like I hadn't just brought up that topic, but after asking the question, Xi Qiao kept staring at me, then stuck out her little tongue at the corner of her mouth.
"Do you want to give it a try?"
"Dar~ling❤~"
