Sky-high pillow: the chief domineering substitute bride

Chapter 378
"What's wrong, Toshihiko?"

Because Xia Yuan was very close to Nangong Toshihiko, she could clearly feel his body trembling, and she couldn't help opening her mouth to ask.

As for everything about him, it seems that now her desire to explore is getting stronger and stronger.

Nangong Toshihiko wasn't bothered, but Xia Yuan really couldn't let Xia Yuan know about it, so he said perfunctorily:
"It's business."

As soon as she heard that it was a business matter, Xia Yuan stopped asking.

It was troublesome to explain the business matters, so Xia Yuan had no choice but to softly let Nangong Junyan carry her to the door and put her down before walking out of the room formally.

But the outside of the living room was empty, and Milan seemed to have gone out again.

Xia Yuan saw a post-it note on the door of the refrigerator in the kitchen with a magnet. She tore it off and saw that it was Milan's message: I'm going out to get some air, and I'll be back in a while. Don't worry!

When Milan goes out, the bodyguards sent by Nangong Toshihiko will follow behind him, and three or five people will not be able to get close to him, so Xia Yuan is not too worried.

The dinner was placed on the table. After Xia Yuan finished washing, she sat at the table but couldn't see Nangong Toshiyan, but heard the range hood in the kitchen ringing. She got up and saw that Nangong Toshiyan rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt and was Hot dishes.

Even when it comes to cooking, he looks more handsome than others, with elegant movements and flowing techniques, at first glance he is no worse than a chef in a four-star hotel.

Just looking at the way he cooks, Xia Yuan is almost drunk, and she can be full without eating.

"What's wrong? Little idiot?"

Nangong Toshihiko started his nickname journey today, and he didn't know how many nicknames he gave Xia Yuan in a day.

The intimacy between the two has grown day by day, never diminished.

"I'm looking at your cooking posture. You are more handsome than the hotel's star chef. How did you do it?"

Xia Yuan simply acted like a nympho.

"Hehe, if you are handsome, you will be willful. There is no need to say anything else!"

Nangong Junyan said cheerfully.Then put the hot dishes on the table on the table.

"Tonight's rice is so fragrant, it must be the new stew pot that has worked."

Xia Yuan pointed to the newly added appliances in the kitchen.

"Oh, so it's not like you don't touch the spring water with your fingers? Well, it seems that I will be able to eat the delicious food made by you every day in the future."

Nangong Toshihiko has actually eaten Xia Yuan's dishes several times, but he still longs for the warmth of home-cooked food.

What he needs is the family atmosphere of coming home to bright lights and warm food.He hasn't enjoyed the atmosphere since his parents' car accident.

"No problem, it's all trivial. When I am free someday, I will definitely take a cooking class and learn how to cook like my mother."

Xia Yuan was talking, but she was thinking in her heart: When will I be free?The big revenge has not been reported, have you been slack in the recent period?Will this continue to give Qin Rui and her son a chance to breathe?
Seeing that Xia Yuan was distracted, Nangong Toshihiko stopped holding the phone again and asked:
"What? Doesn't the dish taste good when it's hot?"

"Oh, no, no. I was thinking of something else."

A look of hesitation flashed across Xia Yuan's eyes, forget it, her vengeance is her business, and Nangong Junyan cannot be implicated again.

Nangong Toshihiko's text message vibrated again, probably because the other party was overwhelmed and anxious because he didn't get his reply for a long time.

Nangong Toshihiko had no choice but to take out his phone and read the text message.Also because of his distraction, he didn't notice the hesitation in Xia Yuan's eyes.

Otherwise, if he continued to question, this was the time when Xia Yuan's will was weakest, so he might have told him.

Sometimes, it is a heavy burden to have secrets in your heart that you cannot share with your lover.It's like walking forward with heavy shackles on your back.

What is a lover?
A lover is someone who can not only bring you joy but also share your sorrows with you.

Seeing Nangong Junyan busy sending text messages, Xia Yuan swallowed the words again.

Nangong Toshihiko checked the content of the text message and saw that it was from Milan's bodyguard. The content said that Milan had arrived at Juren Building and had been lingering around there. He felt a little strange and didn't know what to do.

The second text message was also sent by Milan's bodyguard.Still continue to ask him what to do, because Milan has already entered the Juren Building, he feels that Milan's expression is very wrong.

"Follow her and protect her. Do whatever it takes."

Nangong Toshihiko only replied this sentence.

Immediately, there was no sound.

It seems that after receiving clear instructions, the bodyguards knew what to do.

Nangong Toshihiko pretended to be worried and didn't talk to Xia Yuan for a while.It happened that Xia Yuan was also thinking about it, and there was a momentary blankness and peace between the two of them.

Beneath this calmness, there is actually a torrent of undercurrents.

There are too many secrets in my heart, maybe it's like there is an extra person in the middle?

I don't know who it was, but I was keenly aware that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and finally one person made the first move.

Nangong Toshihiko stood up and said:
"I'll collect the bowl!"

"I'll wash the dishes!"

Xia Yuan also hurriedly followed.

In the kitchen, she put on rubber gloves and scrubbed vigorously.

"Uh, why do you seem to have something on your mind tonight?"

Nangong Toshihiko looked at her from the side, leaning against the door frame, looking invincibly handsome, the light from the kitchen shone on his side face, outlining his sharp profile.

"No, what's on my mind? Maybe I slept too much."

Missing that sensitive time node, Xia Yuan had already made up her mind not to tell Nangong Toshiyan the truth of the matter.

Because this incident is too shocking after all, I wonder if Nangong Toshihiko can accept it?
If she couldn't accept it, wouldn't she have the possibility of losing him?

That's what she couldn't stand.

However, Xia Yuan is not good at lying after all, she was a little distracted by Nangong Toshiyan's questioning, she slipped her hand, and "touched" a porcelain plate that fell to the ground, and it was broken, and the pieces of porcelain splashed everywhere.

"Don't move, I'll clean it up, be careful not to scratch it."

Seeing that something was wrong, Nangong Toshihiko quickly stopped Xia Yuan, then went to the balcony to get a dustpan and a broom, and started to clean up.

After a while, after confirming that all the debris had been cleaned up, Nangong Toshihiko heaved a sigh of relief.

"Okay, I'll wash the rest!"

Nangong Toshihiko didn't hesitate to say anything, grabbed Xia Yuan's glove, put it on his hand, and started to wash the dishes.

The rubber gloves were worn by women, and Nangong Toshihiko looked small wearing them, and they were squeezed together, but he still managed to wash the dishes.

Xia Yuan has been silently watching what Nangong Junyan did, and a warm current surged in her heart.

"What's wrong? Silly girl, breaking a bowl and still crying?"

Nangong Toshihiko wondered why Xia Yuan didn't move. After washing the dishes, he put the dishes on the drying rack. He turned to look at Xia Yuan, but saw that her eyes were full, as if tears were about to come out.
