Chapter 54 She sat on his lap
Jiang Yuning hesitated, "But..."
Fu Xicheng didn't know why Jiang Yuning was so hesitant.
He got straight to the point and said, "But what? You said before that if you have anything to say in advance, you don't want to cause misunderstandings between the two parties, but I want to tell you now, Jiang Yuning, I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
Jiang Yuning was very clear about Fu Xicheng's thoughts about her, but occasionally she was not confident.
"Fu Xicheng, I understand your thoughts. In my eyes, you are excellent."
Fu Xicheng didn't want to hear her useless words, so he took Jiang Yuning into his arms and caressed her cheek.
"You are not bad either. You will be the leader in the future design circle, Jiang Yuning. I like you, but you also have to believe in yourself."
Jiang Yuning's eyes flickered, and she met his probing gaze with a guilty conscience, "I have always been very confident."
Fu Xicheng looked a little unconvinced. He raised his voice and said, "Oh, really?"
Jiang Yuning found that she could never beat Fu Xicheng. Suddenly, an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She tugged on Fu Xicheng's clothes, looking a bit cheating.
"Fu Xicheng, I don't want to walk anymore, please carry me down."
Jiang Yuning's words surprised Fu Xicheng. This was the first time Jiang Yuning asked him to hug her, and he almost started dancing in front of her.
He tried his best to suppress the throbbing in his heart, and his tone of voice was a bit teasing, "Hey, my girlfriend finally knows how to act coquettishly towards me."
Fu Xicheng stood up, bent down, and held Jiang Yuning in his arms.
Jiang Yuning nervously hooked Fu Xicheng's shoulders, and a touch of warmth came to her cheeks. Was she acting coquettishly towards him just now?
She thought she had just said an ordinary thing.
Fu Xicheng misunderstood her meaning. She would explain to him in person later that she did not act coquettishly to him.
Fu Xicheng effortlessly carried Jiang Yuning downstairs. He walked to the dining table and found that Jiang Yuning was in a trance, thinking about something.
He did not disturb her thoughts. He followed his own thoughts and sat on the chair with her in his arms.
At this time, he raised his eyes and looked at the woman in his arms with interest. He reached out and brushed the broken hair from her forehead.
After brushing his hair and waiting for a while, Fu Xicheng found that Jiang Yuning was still in a daze, and he laughed teasingly.
"What are you thinking about? What is more important than eating?"
Jiang Yuning came back to his senses immediately when a familiar voice came to his ears.
Only then did she realize that she had reached the first floor and saw herself sitting on Fu Xicheng's lap. The next second, she couldn't sit still.
Fu Xicheng held her shoulders and leaned over. He said in a low voice, "Are you realizing it now? It's too late."
Jiang Yuning was caught off guard and met Fu Xicheng's eyes. Fu Xicheng's eyes were dark and shiny, and his eyes seemed to swallow her into his belly.
She quickly avoided her eyes and pushed the man in front of her with her hands.
"Fu Xicheng, let me get up."
Fu Xicheng noticed the shy and frightened expression on Jiang Yuning's face, and raised the corners of his lips. It turned out that the little sheep also panicked sometimes.
"Sit on my lap, what else can I do to you?"
Jiang Yuning was restless, and she moved restlessly on his lap.
Fu Xicheng let go of his hand, and the next second, Jiang Yuning fled to the other side.
After Fu Xicheng admired the vivid expression on Jiang Yuning's face, he stood up. "Go wash your hands first, and I'll go to the kitchen to serve you food."
Fu Xicheng placed the prepared dinner on the dining table. After placing it, he sat down gracefully.
Jiang Yuning glanced at the food and observed the expression on Fu Xicheng's face.
"Did you cook all these dishes?"
Fu Xicheng nodded. There was no one else in the villa except him and Jiang Yuning.
He suddenly became interested. He wanted to tease Jiang Yuning, "I didn't cook the food. Could it be the ghosts outside?"
Jiang Yuning followed Fu Xicheng's gaze and looked over. Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, it was pitch black. As she sat here, she could vaguely hear a whirring sound coming from outside. She didn't know if it was the wind or some other sound.
She didn't dare to look any further, so she quickly turned around and lowered her head to eat.
Fu Xicheng smiled brightly. He had an intuition that Jiang Yuning was afraid of ghosts.
Not long after, at this moment, the lights above their heads suddenly went out, and the living room was dark.
Jiang Yuning put down the chopsticks in her hands. Even if Fu Xicheng sat across from her, she couldn't see him clearly.
She suddenly felt on pins and needles, remembering the sound she heard coming from the floor-to-ceiling window just now, she panicked and shouted, "Fu Xicheng."
Fu Xicheng was wondering, why did he turn off the lights just like he said? What went wrong?
He had to go and see for himself.
"I'm here, Jiang Yuning. You sit here and don't move. I'm going to see what's wrong with the switch."
Jiang Yuning found out that Fu Xicheng was leaving here, and she felt uneasy. She didn't want to sit here alone, she wanted to stay with Fu Xicheng.
She picked her fingers and her heart beat faster, "Don't go, I'm a little scared."
"Don't be afraid, think of me when you are afraid."
Fu Xicheng calmed Jiang Yuning's mood. Even if the lights were turned off, he could come and go here freely.
"I'm going to get a candle from the storage room on the first floor. I'll be back soon."
In the darkness, Jiang Yuning opened her eyes and tried hard not to think too much. At this moment, she seemed to see a light not far away.
What is that glowing thing?
Curiosity drove her to stand up and walk step by step towards the light.
He didn't know what he saw, but before he could reach him, Jiang Yuning screamed "Ah".
Hearing Jiang Yuning's scream, Fu Xicheng immediately walked out of the storage room. In the darkness, he accurately found Jiang Yuning's location.
He gradually approached her and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yuning stared forward, not daring to move. Her voice trembled a little as she spoke, "What is that?"
Fu Xicheng raised his eyes and said lightly: "It's just a painting. This painting can glow in the dark. What's so scary about it."
Jiang Yuning had never seen such a painting, and had never heard of paintings that glowed in the dark. She continued to ask: "How come you have such a painting hanging in your villa?"
Fu Xicheng came to Jiang Yuning's side. He leaned over, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "Because it can ward off evil spirits, Jiang Jiang."
Suddenly, Jiang Yuning felt a chill all over her body. When she heard the word "Jiang Jiang", she got goosebumps all over her body.
She immediately moved a few steps to the side.
There was a look of horror on her face. At this time, she became timid and said, "You are not Fu Xicheng. Fu Xicheng will not call me Jiang Jiang."
