Chapter 43: Call Me by Name
Hearing this, Su Wu's chest suddenly felt a little stuffy, a little painful, and a little blocked...... In short, an indescribable, extremely strange emotion quietly grew and spread in her chest.
She asked, "You and her...... You ......"
He slowly raised his head, looked at her, looked at her with very dark eyes, and said slowly, "She is my fiancée...... I've been looking for her for six years......"
"Not ...... Fiancée ......" At this moment, Su Wu felt that her heart suddenly tightened, as if it had stopped beating, and the expression on her face was a little stiff.
Originally...... He really has a fiancée......
She looked at him, and her voice seemed to be slightly bitter: "That...... Did you find her? Your fiancée ......"
She didn't understand why she was asking, as if she had subconsciously asked. Moreover, she was both afraid and faintly looking forward to his answer. But what exactly was she expecting? She didn't know at all.
She only felt very conflicted and chaotic in her heart, and her entire chest cavity was like someone forcibly stuffed into a pile of dry weeds, which made her whole body inexplicably uncomfortable.
The two of them just stared at each other, and the light in their eyes surged as if they wanted to see each other thoroughly.
For a long time, Mu Zhengyao didn't answer her question.
After a while, Su Wu first looked away, settled down, pulled out a smile, and patted him on the shoulder like an old friend, comforting him and saying, "I will find it!" You're sure to find your fiancée! Mr. Mu, you will definitely be happy! ”
So...... A man as cold and hard as him will occasionally show such a soft expression because...... His fiancée, right?
I didn't expect him to be quite infatuated......
Thinking of this, Su Wu's heart surged with the inexplicable emotions of that night again, but this time it was clearer, as if something was about to break free from the shackles and break out of the shell.
She panicked for a moment, immediately reined in her thoughts, and stuffed the inexplicable emotions back into the pack. Then, taking a deep breath, he turned around and hugged his clothes and ironed them back on the shelves.
Su Wu thought while ironing his clothes, since he was so pitiful, wouldn't she be kind to him in the future...... At least, at least she wouldn't treat him badly anymore when it came to food. While the food is full, try to cater to his taste, well, the sofa can also divide him in half......
Uh-huh...... Let's just decide so happily!
Su Wu is a man of action, and he has to do what he thinks of immediately. Therefore, after she finished packing up her clothes and secretly glanced at Mu Zhengyao, she sat down on the stool at the bar and went to Baidu Recipes.
But the moment he opened the webpage, Su Wu stared at the mobile phone screen, dumbfounded.
Who's going to tell her why there are so many kinds of recipes?! What are the home-cooked recipes, special recipes, Chinese recipes, Hunan cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Cantonese cuisine...... There were also many names of dishes that she had never even heard of.
Damn! It's dazzling and dazzling! And she was confused, her head was swollen, and her eyes hurt!
This...... With so many dishes, who knows which one Mu Zhengyao will like to eat? She can't do it all for him, can she? The point is, even if she wants to make it, there are so many ingredients in it that she has never heard of, and she really can't make it......
After a long time of agonizing on her cheeks, she raised her head and looked at the man in the chair at the door.
"That...... Mr. Mu, what kind of food do you usually like to eat? Su Wu walked over with a glass of water, took a sip, leaned against the door, and asked casually.
Mu Zhengyao raised his head slowly, his good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he looked at her with a serious expression: "Come here." ”
Su Wu shook the hand of the cup and paused: "...... Yes? ”
Mu Zhengyao sighed, put the magazine in his hand on the glass table next to him, and spoke again: "Come here." Don't lean against the door, it's easy to catch a cold. ”
When Su Wu heard this, she was stunned for more than ten seconds before she reacted, Mu Zhengyao was concerned about her.
"Oooh oh...... Hehe...... Hehe......" She smirked and straightened up and took two steps forward.
Big brother, please don't be so serious next time, okay? It's obviously a matter of caring about people, but how can it be as cold and hard as a frozen three-foot lake when it comes out of your mouth?
"Sit here." Mu Zhengyao still looked at her, stretched out his arms and pointed to another chair next to the round table.
“…… Oh. Su Wu sat down across from him.
There was only a table between the two, and Su Wu held the water cup in both hands, bowed his head to drink, and tried to avoid his gaze.
"What did you just ask me?" Mu Zhengyao spoke, and his low voice was like a feather gently gliding across Su Wu's heart.
"Uh...... That ......" Su Wu was distracted by a strange feeling that had just risen in his heart, and almost forgot what to say, "I just want to ask, what are your favorite dishes for dinner, and is there anything you don't want to eat?" After thinking about it, he looked up at him, "It's the kind that I particularly hate." Do you have? ”
Her expression is very serious, her big eyes are clear like a mountain spring, her small face is fair, her nose is small and delicate, her lower lip is bitten by her, and the color is natural and full, making her whole person look like a mountain elf.
Mu Zhengyao looked at her like this, so close at hand and within reach, the light in his eyes gradually softened, and even his whole heart softened.
He looked at her for a moment, smiled, and said slowly, "I love everything you make." ”
His smile was too dazzling, and for a moment, Su Wu looked at him, as if he heard the sound of flowers blooming in spring.
His voice was too low and gentle, with a kind of demagogic magic, and he couldn't catch it off guard, Su Wu's heart seemed to be lightly bumped by something, and suddenly the beating rate accelerated, making her breathing a little out of rhythm.
Here it is again, here it is again, this inexplicable, uncontrollable feeling really annoys her! She immediately took a sip of water from both hands and pressed her heart with her forearm without a trace.
What a jump, you! Who allowed you to jump so fast?! I'm almost out of breath when I jump so fast! Stop! I order you to stop me at once! Otherwise, you won't survive if I suffocate you!
Su Wu didn't speak for a long time, the expression on his little face was unpredictable, and Mu Zhengyao couldn't help but smile again when he saw this.
This girl, she can get distracted when she talks to him, can't she concentrate a little? What's awkward again?
Although Mu Zhengyao thought so in his heart, the curvature of the corners of his lips was obviously doting.
"I'm not a picky eater," he said slowly, looking at her, "so there's nothing particularly to avoid." ”
As if he was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hear, he spoke very slowly, and every word was very clear.
Su Wu suddenly returned to his body and laughed dryly: "Oh, oh, oh, I know, I know." Scold...... I'm just asking, asking......" Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the paper cup on the table that was already half empty, she immediately stood up, "Mr. Mu, your water is cold, I'll go and change it for you!" ”
After speaking, without waiting for Mu Zhengyao to say anything, he reached out to reach his cup.
Unexpectedly, she had just touched the wall of the cup, and he had already stretched out his big hand, and the warm palm held her hand in the palm of his hand along with the cup.
Su Wu's body stiffened, and he almost pinched the disposable paper cup in his hand. She reflexively wanted to pull out, but he grabbed tighter.
She raised her eyes to look at him in a daze, and her tongue was knotted: "Mu ...... Mr. Mu......"
"Su Wu," he looked at her with very dark eyes, "in your heart, are we strangers?" ”
Su Wu subconsciously shook his head.
If they were strangers before, but now, after so much time together, her relationship with him seems to be really beyond the scope of strangers!
"Since you also think that we are not strangers," he said after a pause, "then don't call me Mr. Mu." ”
Su Wu, do you know that every time I hear you call "Mr. Mu", my heart hurts. So strange, so alienated, like an invisible barrier, separating me from your world, never being able to get any closer to you.
Su Wu: "That...... What's that going to be called? ”
"My name." He looked at her steadily, his voice crisp and sharp.
“…… You, you, you...... What's your name? …… Mumumu ...... Mu Zhengyao? ”
Doesn't seem like it's okay? It's too impolite to shout by name and surname.
"Zhengyao." He corrected.
Su Wu was a little dumbfounded, this is a strange feeling.
Her mouth opened and opened, but the word "Zhengyao" seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and she couldn't shout it.
After hesitating for a long time, Su Wu's face turned red, and he finally held back one word: "...... Brother ......"
