Chapter 2081: Sweet, Rich, and Overpowering

“Ah… oh.”

Wanting walked over. When Xu Shu was around, she didn’t feel it, but now that it was just her and Yaen Chi, she felt completely uneasy, squeezing the handles of the paper bag nervously.

“Why are you so wary of me? It’s been a while, don’t you recognize me?” Yaen Chi’s voice was gentle, with a hint of amusement.

His voice was naturally pleasant, but what he said made Wanting even more nervous. She hurriedly waved her hand, “No! I just… just don’t know what to say.”

Yaen Chi glanced at her cake, “Pick one for me, let me have a taste.”

“Okay…”

Wanting assumed he probably didn’t like sweet things either, so she chose a sugar-free slice of bread. As she was about to take out a piece, worried that her hands weren’t clean, she held it out in front of Yaen Chi, “Can you take it yourself?”

Yaen Chi was amused by her gesture, bending down, as if coaxing a little dog, “There’s a chair, it doesn’t bite, sit down.”

Only then did Wanting realize her mistake. She looked back; the chair was still in the place where Li Jian sat earlier. But when the man stood up, he had pushed it back a bit, and now it was diagonally placed on the other side of the nightstand.

She didn’t move it, just sat down as it was.

Even with her arms extended, she couldn’t reach him.

It was actually just half an arm’s length, but Yaen Chi wasn’t satisfied, “Move a bit closer, there’s space for three people between us, why are you sitting so far away? Am I going to eat you?”

“It’s not…”

“Come closer.”

“Oh…”

Wanting stood up, moved the chair next to the bed, but still left a person’s space, sat down and handed him the bread slice again, but Yaen Chi didn’t take it, “I don’t like dry things; it’s too choking, pick another one.”

Wanting immediately put the bread down, opened the bag and searched, “What flavor do you like?”

Yaen Chi smirked, “Sweet, greasy, cloying.”

Wanting paused, “I remember you didn’t eat sweet things?”

Her “remember” inexplicably lifted Yaen Chi’s spirits, “Now I do.”

Wanting took out a box of egg tarts, a mousse, and a cream nut bun, asking which one he wanted.

Yaen Chi pointed with his eyes, “The colorful box in your hand.”

He meant the mousse.

Wanting unpacked a fork, carefully took the mousse out of the small transparent box, placed the fork on it, and held it out to him.

Yaen Chi laughed, “Little sister, seeing your brother like this, can I feed myself?”

If he didn’t dislike the inelegance of eating egg tarts, and had no chance to be fed by her, why would he choose such a sweet thing?

Sometimes he really didn’t understand, such a smart little girl, did she become dumb from studying, only knowing how to get scholarships? In front of him, her IQ was of no use, her EQ was at the bottom, bit by bit needing him to teach.

But he quite enjoyed it, not only enjoyed but found some delight, at least it proved that during the time he was away, the little girl was obedient, and didn’t get a boyfriend.

He also knew how to handle her obedience, like now, after listening to him, she felt guilty, but when her little eyes glanced over, they hid a bit of sympathy.

So after being fed two bites, Yaen Chi felt that lying like this was really unbecoming, in case it left a bad impression on her.

“Help me up, let me sit for a while.”
