Chapter 4

Ning Bei felt a kind of motion sickness, his feet were on the kitchen floor, but it seemed that he could fall down at any time.

He began to wonder if his IQ would become negative as soon as he met Nan Xia, and he would do such outrageous things.

When Nan Xia retracted his fingers, he was so nervous that he swallowed the hard candy. Nan Xia smiled, and his cerebellum began to sway like the aftermath of a car accident.

It wasn’t until Nan Xia pushed him to go to the restaurant to prepare hot pot dishes that Ning Bei struggled to “get out” from the series of car accidents just now.

Be yourself, Ning Bei.

Ning Bei stood by the table and warned himself while putting down the cutlery.

Nan Xia quickly brought up the ingredients bought from the supermarket, and the large and small plates filled half of the dining table.

Ning Bei had already recovered his composure. He took apart the bottom of the hot pot and poured it down, added water to cover it, and the two of them sat at the dining table together.

Ning Bei wanted to break the impression of his poor performance just now, and took the initiative to stir up the topic: “Are you going home for the National Day?”

Nan Xia lifted her hair up and tied it into a half-height bun, “Not necessarily.”

Ning Bei immediately saw her exposed fair neck.

Because she was at home, her sitting posture became relaxed, and her whole body felt extra soft, like a snow-white plush carpet.

Who can resist not touching?

Ning Bei looked aside, “Then do you have any travel plans?”

“Not yet.” Nan Xia reached out to help him pour a glass of Coke and handed it to him, “What about you, do you have any plans?”

Ning Bei shook his head.

His silent appearance was in stark contrast to just now, which made Nanxia couldn’t help teasing him even more.

But Nan Xia still held back her bad taste, and said softly, “I’m sorry, Ning Bei.”

Ning Bei raised his head suddenly: “What are you sorry for?”

“Just now,” Nan Xia said, “I thought it was very interesting to see you mistakenly said that you were a puppy, so I went on with it. But I still feel a little offensive to call you like that without asking what you think. So, Sorry, I won’t call you that anymore.”

Ning Bei’s expression didn’t change at all, he just let out a short “oh”.

Nan Xia obviously gave him more respect, but for no reason, Ning Bei felt a strong sense of loss in his heart.

He felt a kind of alienation from Nan Xia.

Obviously, when he was a puppy, he could protect Nanxia, ​​get rewards from the puppy, and hold his sister’s fingers.

But as soon as this thought sounded in Ning Bei’s heart, the alarm sounded from the other side.

Ning Bei! Be a person!

Ning Bei lowered his head to drink Coke, and suddenly asked, “Where’s your ex-boyfriend?”

Nan Xia was taken aback: “Why do you ask this all of a sudden?”

“Didn’t you come to your house during the Chinese New Year?”

“It’s all…” Nan Xia thought about it for a while, “Do you still remember what happened three years ago?”

Ning Bei looked at the soup base in the pot unnaturally: “I have a good memory.”

“But I remember you were hiding in the bedroom and couldn’t come out to play with me, so how did you know?”

Ning Bei pursed his lips: “My brother told me.”

“Oh,” Nanxia smiled, as if remembering something interesting about Ningnan, and asked, “How is your brother’s new job in his hometown? I remember he said he changed jobs when he went back last year?”

“It’s not good.” Ning Bei commented objectively.

Nan Xia: “I remember your mother said it was fine?”

“Not as good as yours.”

Nan Xia couldn’t help laughing.

When she smiled, she didn’t hold back at all, and there were cute little wrinkles on her nose, which made people feel obsessed with it.

The golden earrings were dangling on the side of her face, Ning Bei’s soul was about to be shaken.

His lips moved, and he brought up the topic again.

“So you haven’t been in a relationship since you broke up with your last boyfriend?”

Nan Xia shook her head, “No.”

“Always remember him?”

“Yes.”

Ning Bei’s fingers turned cold, and he heard Nan Xia add: “Always remember his faults, and warn myself not to be blind again.”

Ning Bei: “…”

Seeing that the pot was boiling, Nan Xia opened the lid and carried it to the kitchen.

Ning Bei glanced at her back, and covered the corner of his raised mouth with his hand.

As soon as Nan Xia came back, he quickly stood up and put the dishes actively.

The hot pot is tomato-flavored, and Nanxia can’t eat too spicy, so he can only wrong Ningbei to use dipping sauce to increase the spiciness.

“I don’t like spicy food either.” Ning Bei said.

“I remember you used to like spicy food, just like your brother.”

Ning Bei was quiet for a second: “My taste has changed, and I don’t like it now.”

Nan Xia said “Wow”, “Then it will be very convenient for the two of us to go out for dinner.”

Ning Bei’s ears instantly felt hot.

She said “later”, she said “we”.

Ning Bei felt his tail start to wag again.

It was difficult to control the corners of his mouth from rising, so he could only lower his head and ate the boiled vegetables with big mouthfuls.

In the lowered gaze, a hand was quickly extended.

Nan Xia picked up a lot of meat for him with serving chopsticks.

“If you are growing your body, you should eat more meat.”

The corners of Ning Bei’s mouth were almost grinning behind his ears, but Nan Xia finally noticed that he was smiling.

“What are you laughing about, puppy?”

As soon as Nan Xia said it, she immediately felt that it was inappropriate.

“Sorry, I forgot.”

“It’s okay,” Ning Bei immediately raised his head and put down his chopsticks, and said loudly, “Call me a puppy.”

Nan Xia was taken aback.

“I like puppies. Puppies are cute and loyal. I don’t think there is anything wrong with being called puppies.” Ning Bei said seriously.

Nan Xia seemed to be “scared” by his sudden words, she hesitated for a while, and said, “You don’t need to be wronged and accept a title you don’t like just because I’m a sister.”

Ning Bei shook his head, “No, I like being called a puppy by my sister.”

It is so rare for him to call Nan Xia “sister”, Nan Xia knows that this is usually the truth in his heart.

The smile came naturally, Nan Xia called him: “Puppy.”

Ning Bei couldn’t control the joy that was about to burst out of his heart, he tried his best not to exaggerate the corners of his mouth, and nodded.

“What’s up?”

“Nothing, just barking.” Nan Xia barked again, “Puppy.”

Ning Bei felt that he was about to explode, and the back of his white T-shirt was already wet with sweat, but he didn’t feel uncomfortable at all.

The puppy does not need to answer, the puppy just needs to jump on the owner’s body and lick the owner’s face and neck with his tongue.

Ning Bei was about to break the defense completely.

“I’m going to the bathroom.” He stood up suddenly, turned around and went to the bathroom.

The door closed gently, and Ning Bei grabbed the bottom of the clothes with his backhand and took off the T-shirt. In the mirror, it seemed that his body had begun to steam, Ning Bei supported the edge of the sink with both hands, and looked at himself in the mirror.

He seemed to have really seen a big dog wagging its tail wildly.

Its mouth is open, and its tongue and claws are ready to move.

Ning Bei couldn’t take it anymore.

He turned on the faucet and splashed a little cold water on himself and his face.

Transparent drops of water streaked across his lean and strong chest, and then slid into the waist of his trousers along the grooves of his abdominal muscles.

Ning Bei calmed down in the bathroom for a while, put on his T-shirt and went out again.

The two chatted while eating, and quickly wiped out the hot pot.

Nan Xia found a clean and beautiful cloth bag, and filled it with special products brought by her mother from her hometown.

“Be careful on the way back.” Nan Xia sent Ning Bei to the bus stop at the gate of the community. “Do you know where to get off?”

“Lincheng University Station.”

Nan Xia smiled, “Go.”

Ning Bei waved to her, and quickly walked over to the bus that was about to enter the station.

It was only eight stops from Nanxia’s community to Ningbei’s dormitory. When Ningbei returned to the dormitory, there were only three people inside.

He greeted everyone briefly and sat back at his table.

A copy of “Mathematical Analysis” was spread out on the table, and the soul had already flown to the sky.

In the evening, I went to the cafeteria and bought a bowl of noodle soup. I planned to share the souvenirs with my roommates.

He took out the bags that Nan Xia had packed. There were seven or eight bags of souvenirs in total, and he put a bag on everyone’s table. When I turned to the bottom of the bag, I suddenly saw a small box that was incompatible with souvenirs and was very delicate.

Ning Bei pursed his lips, turned to the white wall, and took out the box.

When he opened it, it turned out to be a box of candy that Nan Xia had fed him in the morning.

Ning Bei instantly remembered when Nan Xia fed him candy, and even when he took Nan Xia’s finger in his mouth.

The stomach seemed to be agitated, and there was a burning sensation that was hard to ignore. Ning Bei looked up at the air conditioner, and it was already twenty degrees.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the corners of his mouth raised up uncontrollably.

The tip of his nose was sweating slightly, as if he needed to open his mouth to breathe like a puppy.

When Ning Bei was smiling and planning to close the box and store it away, he suddenly found a post-it note on the other side of the box.

Ning Bei turned the box over.

It was a light blue post-it note, on which was neatly written in black ink:

“Thank you puppy for accompanying my sister to eat hot pot. This is my sister’s reward for puppy.”

The heart completely lost the rhythm of beating, and the blood began to boil.

Ning Bei couldn’t hear any sound for a moment, only the distant sound of the wind came from the depths of the dull eardrum.

Then, out of nowhere, white noise began to occupy his mind.

In the end, it turned into a scream of pleasure.

Ning Bei rushed out of the dormitory directly.

He ran wildly like a crazy leopard in the night campus, passed through the dormitory buildings, and ran into the bustling playground.

The sound of the wind has become the best fuel for combustion, and it is best that no one can see the joy on his face.

Ning Bei ran desperately on the night playground to reduce the feeling of emptiness and powerlessness caused by the rapid heartbeat.

The bright lights turned into Nan Xia’s eyes, and the noisy sound was Nan Xia laughing lowly beside him.

Nan Xia held his arm, approached him lightly, and said to him:

“Xiao Bei, you smell so good.”

Ning Bei desperately relived the past few days with Nan Xia like a revolving lantern. Dark night and running became his best cover. The corners of his mouth opened infinitely, not afraid to let out any laughter.

After running wildly for more than ten laps, Ning Bei finally stopped slowly.

The body is completely refreshed, as if all the heat that could not be relieved earlier has been completely relieved.

The guard was naturally removed, and the smile on the corner of Ning Bei’s mouth did not diminish, and he walked slowly towards the exit of the playground.

At eight or nine o’clock in the evening, it was the time for college students to run and stroll at night. When Ning Bei was about to walk to the exit, he suddenly saw Jiang Chen and a girl walking.

Ning Bei originally planned to say hello to him and leave, but saw Jiang Chen looking at him with a face full of melons. Ning Bei frowned and was about to ask him what was going on, when he immediately realized the overly obvious smirk on his face.

… Ning Bei’s mind buzzed, and he put on a dead face in seconds. He pretended not to see Jiang Chen, quickly turned his head and walked in another direction.

Who knew, there was a loud bang——

Ning Bei slammed into the big iron gate of the playground.
