Chapter 1411: Sorry, I Already Like Someone (2)

She knew that the team’s aunt only made lunch and dinner for them, and breakfast was just grabbing some biscuits or cereal to get by.

"Are you eating what you made?"

Zhou Qi spoke with a smile, not looking serious at all. Xiao Rou was taken aback, suddenly not understanding what he meant by that.

Did he not want to eat what she made?

"I..."

"You should sleep well, sleep until you naturally wake up. I can buy something from outside and bring it over to eat together."

Before Xiao Rou could say anything, Zhou Qi already spoke again.

So that’s what he meant. Xiao Rou felt a bit frustrated; she realized that she had been getting more and more sensitive recently. Zhou Qi could say just a random line and she would think a lot about it, along with a lot of inexplicable tension or sweetness.

Just like now, she was tense because of Zhou Qi’s "Are you eating what you made?" but now sweet because of "You should sleep well."

Xiao Rou felt her face flush again, hurriedly bowing her head to drink her porridge.

She got up early, so even after this long-winded breakfast, it was still not yet nine o’clock.

Xiao Rou originally didn’t need to go to the milk tea shop, but Zhou Qi had to go back to the team, so Xiao Rou decided to tag along and go out with him.

At the milk tea shop, she pulled up the shutter door. Xu Qingqing hadn’t arrived yet, so Xiao Rou went ahead to tidy up by herself.

Just past ten, Xu Qingqing showed up at the door and seeing Xiao Rou, she concernedly asked about her foot.

"It’s fine now."

Xiao Rou smiled too, and the two started tidying up together, just preparing to prepare.

"Rourou, the person who was with you yesterday, is actually your boyfriend, right?"

While tidying up, Xu Qingqing started gossiping. Xiao Rou was stunned and quickly denied, "No, he... just a friend’s brother, who also lives nearby and just happened to take care of me."

Xu Qingqing clearly wore a disbelieving expression but didn’t continue gossiping and instead sighed, "Nowadays, society is really realistic."

This sentence, seemingly out of nowhere, Xiao Rou didn’t catch its meaning and didn’t pay attention, continuing with her tasks.

She was a person who understood boundaries well, and yesterday Xu Qingqing held it together alone, which made her feel a bit apologetic, so today, Xiao Rou did as much as she could.

After lunch, Xiao Rou received a text from Zhou Qi, ordering ten cups of milk tea. Xiao Rou smiled and called Xu Qingqing over to start preparing.

Before long, Xiao Rou saw the happy-go-lucky duo walking over together.

"Xiao, good afternoon."

"Hello."

Xiao Rou smiled, "Just three cups left, please wait for a while."

"Okay, no rush."

"Xiao, your place is nice."

"Yes, and the milk tea is delicious."

The happy-go-lucky duo lived up to their name, speaking like comedians, taking turns to talk. Even if Xiao Rou didn’t say a word, these two wouldn’t let the conversation drop.

Xu Qingqing was making milk tea at the back and didn’t come up front.

The three cups of milk tea were quickly prepared, and Xiao Rou helped them pack, handing it over.

"Thanks, Xiao."

The two took it, chatted a bit, and then left with the stuff.

"Rourou, you know them?"

After finishing making milk tea, Xu Qingqing also came to the front, just in time to hear Xiao Rou’s final words with the duo, and asked in some surprise.

"Yeah, friends of a friend."

"Is it the same friend’s brother’s friend you mentioned?"

"Yeah."

Xu Qingqing glanced at the backs of the two walking away—one seemed normal, but the other with a yellow head of hair and a skull on the back of his jacket looked anything but serious.
