There's Something in Your Mouth.

Chen Shuo had classes, played basketball, and went to the fencing club to compete and practice fencing with Su Xiyan all day today.

He was already famished, with his chest sticking to his back.

When he arrived at the night market, it was like coming home. The food smelled so good! He knew where every stall was in the night market like the back of his hand.

It was just that, he used to always come here with his dormmates before.

This was the first time coming here to stroll the night market with a girl. And this girl was especially unique - Su Xiyan, the big beauty who had steadily held the position of the campus belle at Nanda University for three years.

However, Chen Shuo seemed to have developed some immunity to Su Xiyan's beauty already.

Who told this woman to always think about tearing him apart?

While Chen Shuo was eating, Su Xiyan just stood by his side quietly watching him.

Her black eyes were like black gemstones, so dark and shiny that they were intoxicating. But the look in her eyes was like a bottomless abyss that one didn't dare look straight at.

Chen Shuo felt a little uncomfortable with someone watching him eat alone.

He took out a fried skewer from the takeout box and handed it to Su Xiyan, "Want to try this? It's really delicious, give it a try?"

Oily, carb-laden foods like fried skewers were a big no for Su Xiyan. She was extremely strict about managing her figure. How could she eat something with such high calories, carbs and fat?

"Try it, it's really tasty! If you don't like it, you can hit me!" Chen Shuo pulled out his killer move.

Su Xiyan looked at it with a half trusting, half doubtful look. She was about to reach out to take it.

Chen Shuo shrank back his hand, "The bamboo skewer is covered in oil and seasoning. I'll hold it, don't get your hands dirty."

After saying that, Chen Shuo brought the fried skewer to Su Xiyan's mouth. His gaze was calm and clear, only showing the expectation that Su Xiyan would try a bite.

Su Xiyan's fingers unconsciously trembled a little.

This was the first time a boy had personally fed her.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Su Xiyan tilted her head slightly and took a small bite of the fried food on the skewer.

The flour-battered and fried mushroom had an especially aromatic fragrance. Humans were born with a craving for such scents.

It was just that Su Xiyan was very disciplined.

After one bite, she stopped, not taking another.

Just trying one bite already took a lot of resolve. She had even mentally calculated the calories and planned to increase her workout intensity after getting home.

When Chen Shuo retracted the skewer, he saw that there was some sauce from the skewer left at the corner of Su Xiyan's mouth.

"You have something on your mouth."

Chen Shuo took out a pack of tissues from his pocket, pulled one out and handed it to Su Xiyan, "At the corner of your mouth, wipe it."

Su Xiyan was about to reach out to take the tissue. Chen Shuo took two steps forward, closing the distance between them.

They were very close, close enough amidst the bustling night market to hear each other's breathing.

Chen Shuo folded the tissue and gently wiped the sauce from the corner of Su Xiyan's mouth, moving gently and carefully.

The night market lights were colorful and dazzling. Each stall had lamps in different colors hanging over them, shining on Su Xiyan's face in flashes of light and shadow.

She did not shy away like other girls would. Instead, she met Chen Shuo's gaze, and even cooperatively opened her mouth slightly, making it convenient for Chen Shuo to wipe her mouth clean.

Chen Shuo lowered his head slightly, very focused on helping Su Xiyan wipe her mouth.

Everything seemed so natural, happening silently on a breezy night.

Something in Su Xiyan's heart seemed to be stirred up, but she couldn't grasp what it was.

Chen Shuo was just like normal, not thinking anything of this at all. When Su Xiyan's gaze returned to him, he was already immersed in enjoying the delicious skewer, lost in it.

After finishing a serving of skewers, Chen Shuo's stomach was finally full.

He still seemed a little unsatisfied, his eyes searching the night market stalls for something.

Then his gaze showed undisguised disappointment: "Too bad, didn't see any octopus fishballs."

Su Xiyan gave Chen Shuo a cold glance. Today she finally witnessed just how big a boy's appetite could be.

"Full already? Can we go back now?"

Chen Shuo nodded, "Sure! Just about. It'd be perfect if there were octopus fishballs too!"

The two started strolling from one end of the night market and had now reached the other exit.

Where they parked was at the other entrance.

Su Xiyan threw her car keys to Chen Shuo and told him to go get the car and drive to the exit closest to them to pick her up.

Chen Shuo took the keys and drove off.

Su Xiyan's gaze searched the night market, seemingly lost in thought.

After more than ten minutes, Chen Shuo's car appeared at the agreed exit.

After Su Xiyan got in the car, she handed Chen Shuo a small box.

Without even opening the box, just from the familiar aroma, Chen Shuo's eyes lit up, "Octopus fishballs?! Thank you thank you!"

"Perfect night."

Just as Chen Shuo opened the package to eat, Su Xiyan coldly ordered, "Drive. Eat when we get home."

"I don't allow anyone to eat in my car."

Chen Shuo responded in acknowledgement and closed the package, focusing on driving.

The night breeze in the city of Su had blown away the day's heat. The car air conditioner wasn't on and Chen Shuo had rolled down all the windows, bathing in the fresh, cool night wind. His whole being felt refreshed.

Su Xiyan sat quietly in the passenger seat, one elbow propped against the window with her fair cheek resting in her palm.

Her gaze looked into the distance at nothing, the scenery on both sides of the street rapidly retreating behind them.

Su Xiyan felt like there was something a little different about tonight.

But she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.

Her gaze drew back from the distance and landed on Chen Shuo, who was focused on driving.

Looking closely, Chen Shuo was quite pleasing to the eye.

He had a tall nose bridge, sharp jawline, eyes slightly upturned at the edges giving him attractive peach blossom eyes that girls loved.

Although he was a bit of a loudmouth and a bit of a pervert, his whole temperament was quite refreshing and natural.

Su Xiyan didn't know if she was imagining it, but she always felt that Chen Shuo, in his joking around, had his own principles and hidden strength.

For the first time, Su Xiyan felt that this partner didn't seem so bad after all.

Back at Haiyi Apartments, both Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan felt a little tired.

After washing up, they each went back to their own rooms to rest.

Chen Shuo wore big sweatpants and was shirtless, sitting at his desk playing games.

His phone rang. Thinking it was Su Xiyan with some other order, he complained inwardly about how she liked giving orders by phone even at home.

But glancing at the call display, it was an unfamiliar number.

Who would call so late at night, did they have some urgent business?

Chen Shuo took off his headphones and answered the call.

The voice on the other end of the call made all the hairs on Chen Shuo's body stand up:

"Chen Shuo, good evening! I think you may never forget my voice in your whole life, right?"

Chen Shuo's gaze was tranquil as he coldly replied, "Where are you?"
