Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 689 - 690 - BIUBIU Speed

Just the thought of it made his blood boil. As it turned out, Fengxi was really the one driving.

He sat by her side, watching her.

Before getting out of the car, Fengxi murmured, "Lawyer Feng, control your gaze. Even a prematurely moody man shouldn’t let himself go."

Feng Mian was stunned for a moment before grabbing her hand as she was about to get out.

This time, Fengxi didn’t pull away. Instead, she quietly looked at him.

Under that gaze, Feng Mian released her hand and offered a small smile. "Sorry."

They entered the restaurant. Gu Anxi was already seated and had ordered a multitude of spicy dishes, including a fiery red hot pot that looked quite intimidating, at least to Lawyer Feng.

For the sake of love, he fearlessly sat down.

Fengxi sat next to Gu Anxi.

Feng Mian thoughtfully got chopsticks and other things for her, while Gu Anxi sat with her hands covering her face, laughing.

Fengxi didn’t seem uneasy; she just looked at Feng Mian.

Just one glance, and Feng Mian felt his knees go weak. He was embarrassed by his own lack of spine. It wasn’t as if he hadn’t seen attractive women before, so why was he making such a fool of himself now?

Whenever Little Gu arrived, the manager personally served the dishes. He didn’t dare to stare directly at Little Gu, so he glanced at Fengxi a few more times instead. Noticing Fengxi’s clothes, Feng Mian removed his own coat and placed it over her shoulders.

Fengxi didn’t notice; she was only interested in the food. Seemingly unafraid of the spice, she ate heartily with Gu Anxi.

Feng Mian grew apprehensive just looking at the spread. He selectively ate only a few bites, but it was still too spicy for him.

Most of the time, he found himself looking at Fengxi. She seems so natural, he thought. Even when she spoke with Gu Anxi, she came across as completely at ease, like someone who had always been part of their lives, not some implanted being.

Yet, Feng Mian knew, an implant was still an implant. Fengxi was not the same Fengxi as before.

He kept staring at Fengxi until Gu Anxi had mostly finished eating and wiped her mouth. "Feng Mian, you should look after Fengxi from now on."

Feng Mian was surprised. Fengxi, on the other hand, was not.

Gu Anxi had already stood up. "You’re paying for this meal."

Feng Mian felt his tongue twist into a knot. "Of course."

Once Gu Anxi had left, Feng Mian turned to look at Fengxi. Like a father instructing his young daughter, he said, "I’m going to settle the bill. Wait for me here."

The beautiful Fengxi nodded.

Satisfied, Feng Mian went to pay. When he returned, however, he found the seat empty.

His heart sank as he scanned the surroundings, then rushed to the restaurant entrance to look...

"Looking for me?" a voice sounded behind him.

Feng Mian turned around and saw Fengxi standing there, holding his coat. He walked over quickly, intending to hug her, but ended up gently tugging her hair instead. "Where did you go?"

"To the restroom," she smiled. "Should we go home now?"

Feng Mian’s heart clenched. After a pause, he spoke, his voice hoarse, "Alright, let’s go home."

As he got into the car, he glanced at her. "Let’s stop by the convenience store to buy a few things first."

His voice suddenly grew raspy. "You’ll need some personal items."

It seemed Fengxi hadn’t considered this; she just nodded at whatever he said. Feng Mian found this rather endearing and drove to a nearby convenience store.

After getting out of the car, he led her into the store. It was quite crowded, so Feng Mian protectively kept her in front of him, half-embracing her as they moved forward. Fengxi seemed used to his closeness and obediently stayed by his side.

She’s so good!

Feng Mian mustered the courage to put his arm around her shoulders, drawing her partly into his embrace. Eventually, he even sat her in the shopping cart and bought shower gel, towels, toothbrushes, and other items, choosing brands and scents he thought girls would like.

Once they got home, he naturally placed these items in the guest bathroom. That’s when he realized she didn’t have any pajamas. So, he went to the master bedroom and got a white shirt for her. "We’ll buy more tomorrow. You can wear this for now."

Fengxi was watching TV. She reached out and took the shirt, her eyes still glued to the screen. Feng Mian gently patted her. "Go take a bath first."

He wasn’t worried she wouldn’t know how. She would know. She was, after all, a living, breathing young woman.

His plan was to get her settled in before he went back to work; he still had some unfinished business from today.

Fengxi glanced at him, took the shirt, and went into the guest bathroom. Seeing the door close, Feng Mian let out a long sigh and went to the balcony for a smoke. He needed to calm his emotions.

Fengxi came out about ten minutes later, sniffing the scent of the shirt on her as she walked.

Feng Mian turned his head, and then found he couldn’t look away; he just watched her quietly.

Fengxi stopped and looked back at him. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Feng Mian asked hoarsely, "Why did you agree to come back with me?"

Fengxi walked over and gently hugged his waist. "Are you unhappy?"

Feng Mian was stunned. After a long pause, he stiffly lowered his head. "Fengxi?"

Would she be this docile and gentle, hugging any other man? Would she obediently go home with anyone else?

Fengxi hummed in acknowledgment. "Prematurely moody Lawyer Feng, are you looking to end your bachelorhood?"

Feng Mian’s voice trembled even more. "Fengxi?"

"It’s me." Fengxi tilted her head up, smiling gently, a hint of shyness in her expression.

Feng Mian felt he was going to lose his mind. His voice was impossibly hoarse. "You remember me?"

"I just remembered." Fengxi tilted her head up, looking at him. "You... aren’t you going to take a bath? I remember you like to drink red wine while bathing, and you also..."

"Don’t say anything more." He embraced her and slowly lowered his head...

...

「Si Garden.」

Gu Anxi was lounging on the recliner, enjoying the cool breeze, and lazily commented, "Uncle, Feng Mian is really moving at lightning speed, like he’s on a rocket!"

Uncle Bo approached, placing a small blanket over her, and sat down by her side. "How do you know?"

The little sweetheart climbed onto his lap and laughed. "I can sense the changes in Fengxi’s body temperature from here."

Bo Xichen was momentarily stunned. Then he realized Feng Mian would probably want to strangle her if he found out.
