Stars In His Eyes-Chapter 1682: His Whole World Is Only You 15

"Shameless!" Ding Jinshi muttered under her breath.

"No matter how shameless I am, I can’t compare to a certain female hooligan," Ding Long said as he hailed a cab, shoved Ding Jinshi inside, gave the address, and let the driver go. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Say that again!" Ding Jinshi glared at him, "I haven’t even called you out for pretending to be asleep!"

"That’s a tactic. If I don’t pretend to sleep, how would I know you’d try to pull a fast one on me? If I don’t know you’d do that, how would I know I need to prepare defenses against your future escalation at home?" Ding Long said with a straight face.

Ding Jinshi was speechless, looking at the driver who occasionally glanced back, unsure how to explain, so she just kept her mouth shut and ignored Ding Long.

"Just joking, you’re not really getting all sensitive and mad, right?" Ding Long, knowing Ding Jinshi’s thin skin, worried his joke went too far, but luckily, she just gave him a look without genuinely being angry.

To be honest, Ding Jinshi didn’t have the face to be angry either, especially since she was the one who shamelessly kissed Ding Long first.

Thinking back on the afternoon, Ding Jinshi felt like she must have had a moment of insanity, or maybe Ding Long’s sickness infected her brain, leading her to do something so inexplicable.

Ding Jinshi loved hot pot, especially in this weather, and as promised, Ding Long took her to enjoy some.

The two of them hardly worried about anyone grabbing their food. Ding Jinshi happily chowed down non-stop, while Ding Long’s hands didn’t take a break.

Perhaps because his cold hadn’t completely cleared up, Ding Long didn’t have much of an appetite. Yet, watching Ding Jinshi enjoy herself made him happier than eating himself. Ding Jinshi could handle spice well, and the spicy, authentic Sichuan hot pot had her eyes squinting with joy.

"Ding Long, from now on, let’s have hot pot together," Ding Jinshi said, pushing her luck, "That way, I can eat more, and you can be like my little maid, catering to me."

"Pfft." Ding Long raised his eyes and snorted at Ding Jinshi, showing his disdain.

After finishing their meal, it was barely seven o’clock when they left the hot pot place. Ding Jinshi felt a bit stuffed, holding onto Ding Long’s hand while they walked slowly, one hand constantly patting her belly.

"Ding Jinshi, you’re really something!" Ding Long said, torn between laughing and scolding, "How old are you, eating without knowing your limits? If you’re full, just stop. If you like it so much, we can come back tomorrow night."

"You said it," Ding Jinshi pouted, then followed Ding Long into the taxi. Since the hotel was a bit far, they didn’t plan on walking back, but upon hearing Ding Long promise to accompany her again, she raised her brows happily for a moment. However, after thinking it over, she shook her head and said, "Forget it, there’s a hot pot place in the capital too. You’re still recovering from a cold and didn’t eat much tonight, we should have something you like tomorrow."

"Mm." Ding Long responded softly, and while holding his arm from the hot pot place to the taxi, Ding Jinshi was willing to give up her favorite hot pot for his sake. Ding Long felt a warmth in his heart.

"I have to attend a seminar tomorrow morning, it’ll probably end around eleven-thirty. Are you busy with work tomorrow? If you are, you don’t need to go out of your way to accompany me. After I wrap up, I can hang out with colleagues around some tourist spots. We can stay here for three days," Ding Jinshi asked.
