"Hurry up and eat. Try my braised pork belly."

"Wow... it's hot and delicious."

"Eat more. Have some fish too."

Dong Xuebing let out a loud burp after dinner and sat at thesofa with Aunt Xuan to watch the news. In the past, Dong Xuebing seldom watchTV. It was because there were no TV in his university hostel and his family waspoor. Whenever he has free time, he will be working part-time to make endsmeet. He does not have the time to think of the current affairs. But now, DongXuebing was a leader, and he changed. He needs to take note of the currentaffairs as this will be useful for his future prospect.

On TV, the Central Government officials were talking abouthousing reforms.

Qu Yunxuan laughed and teased Dong Xuebing. "Our Xiao Bingis interested in news now?"

Dong Xuebing nodded. "I need to work hard for my future."

"My advice to you is not to aim too high." Qu Yunxuancrossed her legs. But she remembered she was wearing a short slip dress and shequickly closed her legs and playfully pinched Dong Xuebing's nose. "You must belucky to get promoted, and you must cherish this opportunity. You must secureyour position first and don't think of climbing up too soon. Your foundations aretoo week and lack the experience. Take one step at a time."

Dong Xuebing slowly nodded. "I know. I will try not to makeany mistakes first."

"That's right. It is not easy to be a leader. You have totake care of your relationships with others."

The news ended, and after the advertisements, it was theweather report.

While watching the weather report, Qu Yunxuan was rubbingher the back of her neck. "It will be cold tomorrow? Remember to wear moreclothes tomorrow."

Dong Xuebing acknowledged and looked at Qu Yunxuan's neckcuriously. "Are you having shoulder aches? Is it because of dinner just now? Isaid I will help you, but you refused."

"It's not about making dinner. These few days I am very busywith work and have no time to rest."

Does she like me or not?

How does she feel about me? Could it be that she is inbetween?

Qu Yunxuan released his hand and smiled: "Ok. You watch TVby yourself. I will go and soak the beans, and we will have beans porridgetomorrow morning."

The TV was playing the opening theme song of a drama. The melodyis gentle and sweet.

Dong Xuebing felt it was a pleasant ambiance. He blinked andmustered his courage to grab Qu Yunxuan's hand. He wants to see if she willallow him to hold her hands. If she allows, that means she likes Dong Xuebing.But if she shies away, that means... nothing. She might not mean anything evenif she dodged.

Half a second...

One second...

Dong Xuebing's fingers held Qu Yunxuan tightly. He waslooking forward to her reaction.

Qu Yunxuan looked at him sternly and retracted her hand."What are you doing? You have no respect for your elder! Are you looking for abeating?"

She hides from me!

She still does not accept me!

Dong Xuebing immediately said the magic word silently.BACK!!!

...

"I will go and soak the beans, and we will have beansporridge tomorrow morning."

"Ok. Add more barley rice. I like to eat barley rice."

"Ok."

Dong Xuebing!
