"Come on, Yi, open your mouth... I'll feed you, ah ~ ~ ~ ~"
Kanai scooped a spoonful of cake and sent it to Lin Yi's mouth.
Lin Yi opened his mouth and ate the cake that was sent to his mouth.
Xiaolan wasn't very good at acting spoiled, so she could only "hmph" to express her dissatisfaction when she saw this situation.
Fortunately, Kanai was the wingman Lin Yi had found. She tilted her head and looked at Xiaolan, saying, "Senior, aren't you planning to do something? If you continue like this, you're going to lose to me."
"This... I've never done this kind of thing before."
After Xiaolan said this, she glanced at Lin Yi, seeing the expectant look on his face, her heart couldn't help but soften.
They've already done it... If I don't do it, then wouldn't I lose?
Thinking of this, Xiaolan picked up a spoonful of cake and said to Lin Yi somewhat unnaturally, "Really... you're not a child anymore, why do you still need someone to feed you..."
Xiaolan muttered as she sent the cake to Lin Yi's mouth.
Lin Yi certainly wouldn't refuse, and opened his mouth to eat it.
One spoonful from a girl, added together, that's double the happiness!!
Ah, this shura field is unfolding so well...
"Come on, Yi. This is your favorite chocolate cake, the sweetness is just right."
Kanai sent another spoonful.
Now that she had already done it, Xiaolan wouldn't let it go so easily, she definitely had to fight to the end.
"Try this, grape sundae ~ ~"
Xiaolan also sent a spoonful up.
"Eh? Grapes?"
Looking at Xiaolan serving grapes, Kanai reminded, "Senior, Yi doesn't really like to eat fruits with seeds."
Xiaolan's hand couldn't help but pause, and she said somewhat unexpectedly, "Is... is that so?"
"That's what they say..."
Lin Yi said, eating the grape sundae that Xiaolan sent over: "It's just troublesome, but eating it... is still okay."
After saying that, just as Lin Yi was about to bend down to spit out the seeds, Kanai timely held a tissue to his mouth, making it easier to spit them out.
Seeing this scene, Xiaolan felt very guilty, as if she had never done such a thoughtful thing since they became boyfriend and girlfriend.
Thinking of what Kanai said about Lin Yi not liking fruits with seeds.
This made Xiaolan suddenly realize a serious problem—she didn't seem to know much about Lin Yi.
What he likes to eat, whether his taste is more salty or sweet, what sports he often does, what he does in his spare time.
Xiaolan couldn't answer any of these things.
On the contrary, Lin Yi knew her living habits like the back of his hand, and even unknowingly integrated into her life.
Thinking of this, Xiaolan's sense of guilt became even more serious.
This made her feel down.
Lin Yi keenly noticed that Xiaolan's mood was not right, so he gave Kanai a wink.
Kanai nodded, then stood up and said, "Yi, I'll go make a phone call first... I'll be back later."
"Yeah."
Lin Yi nodded, watching his wingman leave.
"What's wrong? Xiaolan." Lin Yi put his arm around Xiaolan and let her lean in his arms.
Xiaolan's eyes turned red, and she wiped her tears and said, "I... I suddenly realized just now that I don't understand you at all. I didn't even know you didn't like to eat fruits with seeds."
Lin Yi handed Xiaolan a tissue and comforted her, "It's just troublesome, it's not that I don't like it... As long as it's the food you make, I like to eat it."
"That's different." Xiaolan shook her head, took the tissue and wiped away her tears, saying, "You are forcing yourself to eat it… you don't really like it."
After wiping away her tears, Xiaolan regained her spirits: "I've decided! From now on, I'm going to get to know Yi better!"
"In the future, when I have free time, I won't go shopping with Yuanzi anymore!"
"I want to spend more time with you!"
Looking at Xiaolan's serious expression.
Lin Yi's smile instantly froze.
Am I shooting myself in the foot?
If you spend more time with me, how am I supposed to chase girls?
No, this kind of thing must never happen!
Quickly, Lin Yi had a solution. He first used his hand to wipe away Xiaolan's tears, looked at her deeply, and slowly said:
"Lan, you don't need to do this, you don't need to force yourself."
"No… I'm not forcing myself. This is what I should do as a girlfriend!" Xiaolan shook her head resolutely.
Lin Yi said meaningfully: "No, I don't like you like this."
Saying that, Lin Yi reached out and gently stroked Xiaolan's face, saying affectionately: "I just like Xiaolan as she is now… You should have your own rhythm of life, you should have your own friends, you should have your own hobbies…"
"I like the independent you, I like the you who sweats in karate, and I also like the you who goes shopping with Yuanzi."
"Love is only a part of life, not the whole."
"If I disrupt your original rhythm of life, then you will no longer be you."
"I don't want you to make any changes for me, you just need to be yourself… That alone is enough for me to like you."
Hearing these words, Xiaolan's heart instantly softened, and a warm current surged from the depths of her heart, making her extremely moved.
"Yi…"
Xiaolan pursed her lips, trying hard not to shed tears, and couldn't say a word for a long time, just feeling very moved.
Lin Yi rubbed Xiaolan's head and said with a smile: "I know you like karate, and I also agree with you practicing karate… I even hope that you can win the national karate championship… That's your goal, right?"
Xiaolan pouted and said: "But… wouldn't it be too rude for a woman to practice karate?"
"It's not rude at all… on the contrary, it makes me feel safe."
Lin Yi said all the nice things he could: "In short, I don't want you to change yourself for me… Do you know? Lan, Uncle told me a lot about you."
"Huh?" Xiaolan asked curiously, "What did my dad say?"
Lin Yi said: "Uncle told me when he was drunk… When he and Auntie separated, you lived with him. You were only seven years old at that time, and you took care of all the things in the house."
"He knows that you have been working hard all along, so he told me to treat you well…"
"So I also promised Uncle that I will never let you suffer or be embarrassed again… You just need to be yourself."
Xiaolan stared blankly at Lin Yi, and finally couldn't control her tear glands anymore. With a 'wah' sound, she cried and fell into Lin Yi's arms, crying loudly.
