C887 Who the Hell Are You?
C887 Who the Hell Are You?
Shen Lingxi's face was pale. She tried to give her hand to Long Yi, but there was no way for her to take the first step.
Indeed, it was not that she did not want to get close to Long Yi, but the shadow that Long Yi left for her was too heavy, making it impossible for her to face him in a short period of time like before.
She opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but she did not know how to explain. She just lowered her head and tightly bit her lips.
"Xiao Xi..." Long Yi called her.
"Huh?" She still did not want to look up at him. She was running away.
"Let's go. "Let's go eat." Long Yi wanted to reach out to grab her and put down his plans. He took the lead and walked towards the restaurant. However, he always paid attention to Shen Lingxi, who was two steps behind him, to see if she had followed him.
Although he did not have eyes on the back of his head and he could not see her, he was sensitive to know that when he did not look at her, her gaze fell on him.
These days, she had always been like this... Only when he didn't look at her would she look at him openly, as if she was looking at a stranger she had never met before.
Perhaps, she wasn't very sure whether he was his Long Yi or not.
Perhaps it was because he had caused too much harm to her previously, causing her to never love him as much as she did in the past.
Thinking that she might never be able to accept him again, Long Yi's heart sank, causing his steps to become much heavier. At this moment, he really wanted to turn around and embrace her who was following behind him.
But he couldn't, because he would scare her.
In this life, he couldn't hurt her anymore, he couldn't make her scared anymore.
It was clearly him who personally told her to protect her properly, it was clearly him who personally said that he definitely wouldn't let anyone hurt her, but the one who truly hurt her was him.
...
At the dinner table, the two of them were eating quietly. No one broke the silence, until they picked up a piece of meat with their chopsticks at the same time.
Shen Lingxi quickly took back her chopsticks and said, "About that, I am full... You can eat slowly."
She had only eaten two mouthfuls of rice and the rice in the bowl did not move much. She did not eat much of the food either. How could she be full?
Long Yi picked up some vegetables and placed them in her bowl. "You can eat with me a little more."
"Oh, okay." Shen Lingxi nodded and picked up the chopsticks to eat another two mouthfuls of rice, but she did not eat the dishes he gave her.
"Eat some food." Long Yi picked up another dish for her.
"Okay." Shen Lingxi nodded obediently again. She then picked up the dish he gave her and put it into her mouth. She was so obedient that she was like a puppet controlled by someone else.
Seeing her like this, Long Yi was angry and angry. He put down his chopsticks. "Is it really that painful to eat with me?"
Shen Lingxi shook her head.
Long Yi sighed and said, "Then eat with me properly."
"Yes." Shen Lingxi nodded and straightened her body. She picked up the vegetables and put them into her mouth and ate another two mouthfuls of rice.
Seeing that she was seriously eating, Long Yi picked up the chopsticks again.
He picked up a piece of braised pork that she personally made and put it into his mouth and ate it in one mouthful.
Shen Lingxi knew that Long Yi liked to eat meat, especially braised pork. In the past, the Long Family's cooking aunt was especially good at cooking this dish.
She had also learned from the cooking aunt, but she did not know. Was it because she had no fate with the kitchen? The braised pork was never delicious.
Today, she had secretly practiced the Braised Pork with Soy Sauce for several days. After a few dishes were ruined, she thought that the taste was alright.
Seeing Long Yi eat a piece of Braised Pork with Soy Sauce in one bite, she could not help but reach out her chopsticks and pick it up for him. "If it's delicious, you should eat more."
"It's very delicious." Long Yi looked at her and saw that her pale face had finally turned red. She was in a good mood, so she ate another two pieces. "Fat but not greasy. I can even catch up to a professional chef."
"If you like it, I will often cook it for you in the future." Shen Lingxi had also said this before. But at that time, she was not as careful as she was now. At that time, she was acting like a spoiled child.
"Okay." Vaguely, Shen Lingxi also appeared in front of Long Yi.
Due to the complicated population of the Shen Family family, Shen Lingxi's parents passed away early. She grew up with her grandfather and was often ostracized by others in the Shen Family.
At such a young age, she had learned to hide her true feelings. Only when she was in front of him would she reveal her true feelings.
Only when she was in front of him, would she see a happy, carefree Shen Lingxi.
But now, even when facing him, it was very difficult to see her truly happy and happy appearance.
After this conversation, the two of them did not speak again. The restaurant was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Ring! Ring! ...
The phone rang and broke the silence.
It was Shen Lingxi's phone.
She smiled apologetically at Long Yi, then went to pick up the phone. When she picked up the phone, she saw that it was an unfamiliar phone number. She did not want to answer, but she was worried that she would miss a call, so she politely answered, "Hello!"
"Xiao Xi, is that you?" A male voice came from the phone. It was a male voice that Shen Lingxi was extremely familiar with.
"Who are you?" This voice shocked Shen Lingxi, made her panic and scared Shen Lingxi. She could not help but raise her head to look at the man sitting in front of her.
Long Yi was sitting in front of her.
"It's me." The man said again.
"Who exactly are you?" Shen Lingxi was afraid but she tried her best to control herself so that she would not be so afraid. However, the hand that held the phone started to shake uncontrollably and the more it trembled, the more powerful it became.
"Xiao Xi, what's wrong?" Long Yi saw that her face was pale and reached out to grab her phone, but Shen Lingxi jumped up and avoided Long Yi from far away.
She looked at him with her beautiful eyes full of vigilance, "Tell me, who exactly are you?"
She was asking, but she did not know whether she was asking the person on the phone or the Long Yi in front of her.
Long Yi sensed something and tried to get close to her to take the phone from her. He wanted to know who the person on the other end of the phone was.
Why did it make her so scared?
However, Shen Lingxi immediately stepped back as soon as he took a step.
"Xiao Xi, don't be afraid! Give me your phone. No matter what, let me handle it, okay?" Seeing Shen Lingxi's frightened and vigilant eyes, Long Yi did not approach her again. He tried to let her put down her guard against him first.
Shen Lingxi shook her head and retreated step by step as she shouted, "I don't care who you are, don't get close to me, don't get close to me, stay away from me."
Long Yi was flustered. "Xiao Xi, what happened?"
At the same time, Shen Lingxi's familiar male voice came from the phone, "Xiao Xi, it's me. Could it be that you can't even hear my voice?"
