Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 997: Xu Che’s Side 9 – Lady Boss, You’re Moving in Too Quickly

After leaving the forensic laboratory, Xiao Yi fell into deep thought. Mu Qiqi and Xu Che had indeed given her a profound lesson.

On the way home, Xiao Yi peeked at Xu Che a few times. She couldn’t help thanking him. “Thank you for today. It’s really a rare experience in life, although it’s a little strange to bring a girl to see a corpse.”

“Don’t just let the body live. It’s not different from a walking corpse. You have to let the soul be ignited. That’s true living…” Xu Che tilted his head and looked at Xiao Yi, his eyes all serious.

At that moment, Xiao Yi responded to Xu Che’s gaze and felt that Xu Che had something different that others didn’t. It was something Mu Qiqi also had.

It was a kind of respect and treasure for life.

“I… You look down on me, don’t you?” Xiao Yi mocked herself. “Every day, I hide in my shell and feel sorry for myself. I don’t even want to give my heart to others. In your heart, I must be a very bad person.”

“Not really.” Xu Che shook his head. “At first, I was curious about how bad you made yourself feel. Now, I’m curious about how good you can make yourself feel.”

“You really have a lot of confidence in me.” Xiao Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

“I’ve always had a good eye for people.”

After hearing Xu Che’s words, Xiao Yi suddenly had an idea. “Don’t send me home. I want to go somewhere first.”

Xu Che raised his eyebrows slightly. “But we’re already at your doorstep…”

“Let’s go back to the dessert shop first. Let’s go…”

Xu Che couldn’t help but laugh when he saw her hand on his shoulder. Perhaps it was because she was chubby and cute, or perhaps it was because Xiao Yi was finally willing to open her heart to others.

Therefore, he was also willing to turn around for Xiao Yi.

The two of them returned to the dessert shop late at night. The shop assistant was already preparing to close for the day.

However, when the staff saw their lady boss and Xu Che returning together, they winked at each other again. It looked like their date today went very well.

Xiao Yi brought Xu Che to the confectionery room and put on the pastry chef’s hat.

Xu Che stood beside her and watched her take out all sorts of ingredients.

“You’re making pastries?”

“I’ve been researching a new product these past few days, and I still don’t know what to make it out of. Your words woke me up. Sit down. I might need two hours. You’re not busy, are you?”

Xu Che looked at the chair beside him and sat down. “There’s no rush.”

“That’s good. In a while, I’ll let you be the first to taste it for me.”

With that, Xiao Yi lowered her head. This was completely different from how she usually played games. It was as if only when she was making her beloved pastries would she completely immerse herself and reveal her serious side.

“Xu Che, this is an honor. I’ve never let anyone see the way I make pastries.”

Xu Che smiled slightly. Seeing the flour on her forehead, he reached out and wiped it away for her.

The two of them were stunned at the same time. Xu Che’s expression didn’t change, but Xiao Yi’s became a little unnatural.

So, she stopped what she was doing and placed one hand on her waist to ask Xu Che, “You… Why are you so good to me?”

After listening to her, Xu Che shrugged slightly. “Of course, it’s to pursue you. What other reason could there be?”

“Are you kidding? I…” Xiao Yi pointed at her figure and showed an incredulous expression. “Do you know how much I weigh?”

“I don’t mind. You’re just right,” Xu Che said in a relaxed manner. “In your heart, am I such a shallow person?”

Of course, Xiao Yi didn’t mean that. She just felt that she wasn’t used to God suddenly being so good to her.

Moreover, how could she be worthy of Xu Che?

“Don’t you think you’re a flower?”

Xu Che crossed his arms and sat on the chair with a faint smile on his face. So, was she comparing herself to cow dung?

“Try living seriously. Everything will be very different. When the time comes, you’ll probably despise a crude person like me who only knows how to use force.”

“You’re not a rough person,” Xiao Yi retorted. How could there be a rough person with such a decent character? “I’m just, you know, I’ve been carrying a lot of things from the past. I need time to recover my strength now, so I might not be able to accept your feelings for a relationship in the short term.”

“It’s fine,” Xu Che said frankly. “As long as you allow me to appear in front of you.”
