Jian Ai didn’t buy it as usual. As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards a hotpot restaurant behind her.

Seeing this, Ji Haoyu quickly followed and approached Jian Ai. He asked shamelessly, “Tell me the truth. Did you miss me?”

“Tell me the truth. Did you forget to bring your face when you headed out?” Jian Ai glanced at him and asked expressionlessly.

When Ji Haoyu heard this, he touched his face. “I did. Can’t you see such a handsome face?”

“Heh… Heh…” Jian Ai pretended to laugh to show her disdain.

She now realized that when one got used to anything, the lethality would instantly decrease by more than half.

For example, Ji Haoyu’s shamelessness and his sometimes nauseating words of love.

At first, Jian Ai would have some reactions, such as disgust and anger.

However, Jian Ai was already completely used to it now. In her eyes, nothing that came out of Ji Haoyu’s mouth would surprise her.

Life was full of surprises. Ji Haoyu’s mouth was like an unknown black hole. She did not know what he would say next that would make her roll her eyes. Fortunately, she was already used to it.

Not only that, but their relationship also became more harmonious in this subtle atmosphere. Strangely, this was Ji Haoyu’s unique trait.

Jian Ai didn’t know what had happened. They had imperceptibly gotten closer.

Sitting down at the hotpot restaurant, Jian Ai ordered a hotpot with two soup bases and a bunch of dishes. In the end, she looked up and said, “I won’t drink today.”

Ji Haoyu naturally had no objections and nodded. “I’ll listen to your arrangements.”

After ordering, Jian Ai picked up the bag and threw it to Ji Haoyu. She said calmly, “This is for you.”

Ji Haoyu instinctively reached out to catch it. Then, he looked at Jian Ai suspiciously. “For me? What day is it today?”

Jian Ai frowned when she saw Ji Haoyu’s reaction.

Ji Haoyu also looked at Jian Ai. When their eyes met, Ji Haoyu’s peach blossom eyes suddenly lit up. “Don’t tell me you agree to me?”

“As if!” Jian Ai looked at Ji Haoyu in amusement and explained, “I accidentally saw this when I was buying something for myself just now. I thought it suited you, so I bought it for you. Take it as thanks for your help before.”

Jian Ai was telling the truth, but Ji Haoyu didn’t believe her. He looked at Jian Ai with an expression that said, ‘Continue making things up. I’ll admit defeat if I believe a word.’

Jian Ai couldn’t help but widen her eyes and say anxiously, “I’m telling the truth!”

Ji Haoyu smiled evilly and looked at Jian Ai with a smug expression. “Where are the things you bought?”

Jian Ai was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had only taken out the cufflinks. Someone would send the other things to her house tomorrow.

“I bought too much. Someone will send them to me tomorrow,” Jian Ai explained honestly.

Ji Haoyu raised his handsome eyebrows slightly. He did not believe her. Instead, he looked at Jian Ai earnestly and said, “Just say it if you specially bought me a gift. Why are you taking so many turns? Are you playing hard to get? I won’t fall for it.”

Jian Ai: “…”

She wanted to bite off her tongue and spit out blood on Ji Haoyu’s face.

Who was playing hard to get? What she said was true!

“What is this?” Ji Haoyu asked with anticipation.

Jian Ai’s face darkened as she said impatiently, “I don’t know. Open it yourself!”
