Chapter 418
Tong Yan looked at her aggrievedly, “I… just want to be with you.”
“I’m just here to drink a glass of water, so you don’t have to follow me. You can go ahead and play some games.”
“I don’t want to play games; I want to be with you.”
Xu Xinduo always heard about men usually playing games and ignoring their girlfriends, so why couldn’t she enjoy that sort of treatment as well?
Tong Yan seemed to think that she was more entertaining than any other game.
She drank the water patiently and placed the glass on the table.
Tong Yan came over and picked up the glass Xu Xinduo used, drinking the rest of the water.
Xu Xinduo started to lose her temper again, “You even want to drink my water?”
Tong Yan’s eyes widened, “Is this also something worth getting mad over?!”
“You find me annoying now, do you?”
“That’s not it.”
“You raised the volume of your voice just now.”
“I was just surprised.”
“Ahhh!” Xu Xinduo stomped her feet irritably as she walked out quickly and said, “I’m going for a swim.”
Tong Yan wanted to follow Xu Xinduo, but he was afraid that she would be annoyed by his presence, so he didn’t follow her. After thinking about it, he went up to the second floor alone.
He sat in front of the window and picked up his mobile phone, turning on a game as he played with Wei Lan and the others over the microphone. As a result, he played for three consecutive rounds before throwing the mobile phone aside in anger.
When he went to find Xu Xinduo again, he saw that she was still swimming.
After giving it some thought, he decided not to approach her. With that, he went back and took a nap alone.
Taking a nap for too long would lead to insomnia for the night, which was why he remained energetic even in the early hours of morning. He tiptoed to the door of their room and saw Xu Xinduo sleeping before he turned away again.
Xu Xinduo was a light sleeper, so he was afraid that he would wake her up if he went in.
Sadly, he could only go for a swim alone.
The consequence of staying up late was that he didn’t fall asleep until it was close to the morning. Hence, by the time he awoke, he was already relatively hungry.
He was so hungry that after inquiring about it, he found out that Xu Xinduo had already eaten alone, so he ate his meal by himself. After dinner, he wanted to find her again, but he was worried that she would be mad so he held back and grabbed his phone to contact Wei Lan.
Wei Lan: [Brother Yan, you can play games, but can you not scold them consecutively? Yesterday you even cursed in three languages.]
Tong Yan: [I’ll try my best.]
They played pretty well today. As Tong Yan had won several rounds, his in-game ranking was improved.
He was willing to play for a few more rounds since he was on a winning streak, so they played fervently until the moon hung proudly in the sky.
Then, he placed down his phone and walked downstairs. Upon seeing Xu Xinduo sitting alone at the dining table, he asked, “Have you eaten?”
“No, let’s eat together,” After that, they called the workers to send their meals.
When the two of them were eating, they remained silent the entire time, something that they were both used to. This time, Xu Xinduo had noticeably been eyeing Tong Yan a couple of times.
After Tong Yan finished eating, he went ahead and answered an incoming call. Even if Xu Xinduo had something that she wanted to say to Tong Yan, she didn’t even get the chance to do so.
When Tong Yan was lying on a rattan chair in the evening, Xu Xinduo came over and laid down beside him, hugging his waist from behind.
