Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 356 - 269: The Second Night with Fang Tangtang (10,000 words for Monthly Ticket!)

Having said that, Fang Tangtang realized belatedly that she had been sitting there talking to Qiu Tu all along.

She quickly got up in a panic, like a child who had made a mistake, with her face flushed and her head lowered, too scared to speak.

The dim light shone on Fang Tangtang, adding a touch of tenderness to her, yet it also made her appear even more delicate.

Hearing the words of the girl in front of him and seeing her timid demeanor, Qiu Tu remained silent for two seconds before asking, "Did you have dinner?"

Hearing Qiu Tu’s question, Fang Tangtang hastily shook her hand in a bit of a panic, "No, no. I’ve been waiting for you."

Qiu Tu:....

Qiu Tu glanced at the clock on the kitchen wall. It was 11:40 PM.

He vaguely remembered that when he had come home, it was about 6 PM.

At that time, the girl was cooking.

So... had she cooked the meal and then been waiting with an empty stomach for him to return?

’Is this a tactic taught by The Five Elders, or... does she truly want to wait to have dinner with me?’

Because of his experiences across two lifetimes, Qiu Tu did not judge the girl in front of him so easily.

So he simply said expressionlessly, "Then, let’s reheat the food and eat together."

"Yes." Fang Tangtang timidly agreed, hurriedly carrying the dishes, and clumsily went to reheat them.

Despite being usually clumsy in her actions, she had some talent in cooking, so it didn’t take long to reheat the three dishes, and she even made an extra soup.

Moving on tiptoes, she rushed to bring the dishes to the table, reverting to the quail-like appearance: head down, sitting obediently in the chair waiting for Qiu Tu to speak.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu picked up his chopsticks and softly said, "Let’s eat."

It was only then that Fang Tangtang, with her bowl in hand, began to eat, keeping her head down. Continue your saga on novelbuddy

During dinner, Qiu Tu’s gaze tended to drift towards Fang Tangtang from the corner of his eye.

He noticed that Fang Tangtang was also sneaking glances at him.

Those large eyes took quick peeks at him under the guise of picking up food with her chopsticks.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu remained silent for a moment before starting a conversation. He inquired, "Did you make all these dishes yourself?"

It wasn’t that Qiu Tu doubted Fang Tangtang. Mainly, he had seen too much deception in his former life—ordering takeaway and claiming it was home-cooked, and to make matters worse, it was fast-food chicken!

So if Fang Tangtang had the Fang Family’s chef cook the meal and just pretended in front of him, it was a possibility.

Who knew that upon hearing this, Fang Tangtang immediately looked nervously at Qiu Tu and asked weakly, "Is it... too bland?"

Her face red, head lowered, she said sheepishly, "I... I don’t know your taste. So I didn’t dare add too much salt."

At that, she raised her head, carefully watching Qiu Tu, and suggested, "Shall I go back and adjust it?"

Qiu Tu:.....

Qiu Tu hadn’t expected his simple question to lead to so many explanations from Fang Tangtang.

However... these explanations indirectly proved that she had cooked the meal, which, in a way, answered Qiu Tu’s question.

So Qiu Tu simply lifted his chopsticks slightly and said indifferently, "The taste is quite good. Let’s eat."

Hearing Qiu Tu’s affirmation, Fang Tangtang smiled sweetly, her large eyes curving into two crescent moons, making her look especially lovely, conveying a feeling of healing.

Qiu Tu was momentarily lost in thought, his lips involuntarily curling upwards.

After the meal, Qiu Tu was the first to put down his utensils.

Seeing Qiu Tu do so, Fang Tangtang, who was eating with stuffed cheeks, quickly wiped her mouth and also hurriedly put down her utensils.

Noticing this, Qiu Tu said, "It’s okay. Continue eating."

Fang Tangtang’s eyes, brimming with a bit of longing, nevertheless firmly shook her head, whispering, "No need, no need. I’m already full."

Seeing her reaction, Qiu Tu did not insist further.

He adjusted his clothes and stood up, ready to go back and rest.

But just then, Fang Tangtang took the initiative to call out to Qiu Tu for the first time, "Qiu... Qiu Tu."

Qiu Tu stopped, then turned his head to look at her.

Possibly because of Qiu Tu’s stern expression and imposing demeanor, Fang Tangtang visibly flinched.

She shrunk her neck and looked up at him cautiously, then asked uneasily, "Can... can I call you that?"

After two seconds of silence, Qiu Tu nodded.

With Qiu Tu’s positive response, Fang Tangtang’s face showed a pretty smile. Then she timidly said, "I wanted to talk to you about the question you asked me when you entered today."

Hearing Fang Tangtang’s words, Qiu Tu was startled. His mind raced as he tried to recall, and maybe because several hours had passed, he had already forgotten what he had asked on a whim.

Meanwhile, earnestness was written all over Fang Tangtang’s round, goose-egg face as she scrunched up her cute little nose and sincerely said, "I really did encounter something happy today."

"It might be because the two of us are together now. Grandpa has arranged for my parents a house twice the size of the current one, along with a sum of money."

"My mother was very happy when she came to see me today. She said that Grandpa even secured a good position for my brother in the family’s business ventures."

Fang Tangtang, with her head down and clutching her dress, was a bit nervous, "I know all this is because of you."

"Grandpa is so good to our family, actually, all because of you."

"But... I get a bit nervous when I see you, so after you asked me, I subconsciously denied it."

Hearing Fang Tangtang’s trivial worries, Qiu Tu furrowed his brow slightly and couldn’t help asking, "Why tell me this?"

Fang Tangtang became even more nervous at Qiu Tu’s words. She whispered, "But... isn’t that what you’re supposed to do when in a relationship? Be honest with each other?"
