He Xianmo: "Not very polite."
Zeng Xu: "...Did she say she didn't want you to find her?"
He Xianmo thought about it carefully, then shook his head.
"That's right." Zeng Xu looked helpless, "Arthur, you are really used to being chased, put down your pride~!"
He Xianmo didn't reply this time, and carefully digested what Zeng Xu had just said.
Not long after the two of them finished chatting, it was time to work. He Xianmo quickly switched modes and put these personal matters behind him.
——
Although the chat with Zeng Xu that day provided new ideas, He Xianmo did not take any action until get off work on Friday.
Subconsciously, he still wanted to wait for Zhou Ruo to take the initiative to contact him, maybe like Zeng Xu said, he couldn't let go of his pride.
However, what He Xianmo expected did not happen.
On the afternoon of Saturday, while He Xianmo was watering succulents in his apartment, he received a WeChat message from Zeng Xu.
Zeng Xu: [How is it? Is there any progress? 】
He Xianmo answered the question inappropriately: "Are you at home?" 】
Zeng Xu: [I came to play with Dara today, and we will go to the music festival in the evening. 】
He Xianmo: [Oh, what time will you be back? 】
Zeng Xu: [Why did you suddenly investigate my position? 】
He Xianmo: [I bought snacks for Nuomi Ci. 】
Zeng Xu directly sent the apartment access code: [You can just throw it at home and thank his uncle for my daughter. 】
He Xianmo looked at the message from Zeng Xu and unconsciously clenched his phone.
The words had already been spoken. In order not to arouse Zeng Xu's suspicion, He Xianmo had no choice but to go to the pet supermarket and buy a few bags of cat strips, and then drove to Zeng Xu's apartment.
According to the password given by Zeng Xu, He Xianmo successfully opened the door. When he entered the living room, Nuomici immediately ran down from the cat climbing frame and stared at the snacks in He Xianmo's hand with his big eyes.
He Xianmo put down the snacks, opened a cat bar and fed Nuomi Ci, who sat on his lap as usual.
He Xianmo touched Nuomi Ci's hair, but his thoughts had already drifted to the sky - Zhou Ruo didn't contact him, but took the initiative to go on a date with Zeng Xu.
Does that mean that the two of them will be together tonight?
——
When Zhou Ruo saw Zeng Xu smiling with his mobile phone, he asked curiously: "What's so good about smiling so happily?"
"My daughter." Zeng Xu handed the phone to Zhou Ruo, which showed real-time monitoring of his apartment.
Zhou Ruo had long heard from Zeng Xu that he had a stuffed animal at home. It looked really cute today, but——
"Is this Dr. He?" Zhou Ruo was slightly surprised when she saw the figure holding the cat.
"He bought snacks for Nuomi Ci. I happened to be away, so I asked him to deliver them first." Zeng Xu explained with a smile.
Zhou Ruo said "Oh" and said, "Dr. He is quite nice. I'll help you raise the cat together."
Zeng Xu: "My daughter really likes him. She clings to him when she sees him. She probably likes handsome guys."
Zhou Ruo was noncommittal. In front of Zeng Xu, she always acted as if she was not very familiar with He Xianmo - or it couldn't be said that she didn't know them well. She did feel that they were not familiar with each other and they didn't know much about each other.
When talking about He Xianmo, Zeng Xu unconsciously said a few more words, "But handsome guys sometimes get emotionally frustrated. Don't you think it's fun?"
Feeling frustrated? He Xianmo?
Zhou Ruo raised his eyebrows, "Really?"
"I don't know who it is." Zeng Xu said, "I'm still wondering why he didn't reconcile with Shirley. It turns out that he secretly likes someone else and is absent-minded all day long. Unfortunately, the other person is not very interested in him. He You have to work hard."
Zhou Ruo: "Oh, that's it."
She casually raised her lips and smiled, and asked Zeng Xu casually: "Does Dr. He know that you are playing with me today?"
Zeng Xu didn't react, why did Zhou Ruo
Why asked, but still nodded, "Don't you want others to know?"
"Of course not." Zhou Ruo's smile grew thicker, "We men are unmarried and women are unmarried, so it's not like we are shameful."
——
He Xianmo stayed at Zeng Xu's apartment until the evening, and finally couldn't hold himself back any longer and drove to Zhou Ruo's apartment.
Previously, Zhou Ruofa was only at seven o'clock in the evening. Even if Zhou Ruofa came back to spend the night tonight, it would not be so early.
Moreover, it is very likely that she will not come back.
Thinking of this, He Xianmo's hands unconsciously clenched the steering wheel - he really couldn't restrain his "cheap" mentality. Even though he knew that she would stay up all night, he still had to confirm it in person before he was willing to accept it.
But so what if it was confirmed, there was no relationship between him and Zhou Ruo. Even if there was, she would not be restrained by him unless he really found a place to lock her up so that she would never have the chance to contact other people.
He Xianmo sat in the car like this for more than four hours.
At around eleven o'clock in the night, He Xianmo saw the familiar G500 through the windshield. His originally dilated pupils shrank instantly. After that, he got out of the car as quickly as possible and walked towards the parking space.
When He Xianmo came over, Zhou Ruo happened to get out of the car with his bag.
Today she wore a V-neck white T-shirt with a pair of sports shorts underneath. Her legs were exposed, and the tattoo on her thigh could be clearly seen.
Although the surrounding light was not good, the plump luster of her thighs could still be seen.
Because she was going to the music festival, Zhou Ruo dressed casually today and didn't even wear high heels. Her height of 1.7 meters was still half a head away from He Xianmo.
Zhou Ruo raised her head and glanced at He Xianmo opposite. She was not surprised to see him here. In the afternoon, when Zeng Xu said that He Xianmo knew that they were dating, Zhou Ruo guessed that He Xianmo might come over in the evening.
She smiled and asked casually, "How long have you been waiting?"
There is too much information contained in these four simple words.
He Xianmo's eyes were a little colder, and he walked towards her: "You knew I would come."
"Guess." Zhou Ruo said calmly, "You bought snacks for Zeng Xu's cat to test whether he is dating me."
"No." He Xianmo denied without hesitation: "You are not that important."
"Oh, that's it -" Zhou Ruo nodded, "Good night, I'm going upstairs."
After she finished speaking, she was about to walk around him and leave. Seeing this, He Xianmo grabbed her wrist without having time to think deeply.
Zhou Ruo lowered his head and glanced: "Dr. He, is there anything else?"
He Xianmo: "Is it fun to play with me?"
"When did I play with you?" Zhou Ruo was puzzled.
He Xianmo: "You said you would find me."
Zhou Ruo: "What then?"
"You didn't do it." He Xianmo asked her, "How many months have you been with Zeng Xu and you're still not tired of it?"
He remembered that in her previous terms, she had lost her novelty at the beginning of a month. How come she became so "special" when it came to Zeng Xu?
Although He Xianmo tried his best to suppress it, Zhou Ruo still heard a sour smell from his question.
She couldn't help laughing, and raised her hand to touch He Xianmo's face, "Dr. He, Zeng Xu is your best friend. It's not worth it to be separated from your friends because of a woman."
