Chapter 11 : You did it on purpose
Jiang Yu looked at the closed door and sighed. Her eyes were full of distress. She stood there for a while and then went back. Huo Shiqian closed the door and rubbed his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Xia Ke's friend was Jiang Yu. Could it be his mother talked to Xia Ke about the apartment. But there was no need to. If she asked for it herself, he won't refuse it. No, it must be a coincidence. …… The next morning, Jiang Yu got up at 7:30 and quickly washed up. Then went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles, and carefully laid an egg on it. She carefully picked up the bowl and went next door and rang the doorbell. The door opened in half a minute. Huo Shiqian had just finished getting ready when he heard the doorbell ring. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Jiang Yu standing at the door with a bowl of noodles. He was struck speechless. Jiang Yu looked at him: "that ... I don't know if you had breakfast yet. So I made it... " "Miss Jiang, I don't think we know each other that well." He looked cold: "if this is because I lent you the apartment, then it's not necessary. It's just a trivial matter to me." Jiang Yu bit her lip and looked up at him: "It's not because of that." Instead of saying anything else, she looked up at him with a smile and said with a soft voice: "It's too hot. Can I put it down? " He looked at Jiang Yu, and the rising heat mixing up her features. He could even see the inside of her fingers reddening because of the heat. He felt somewhat distressed and fidgety. He moved sideways to free some space, and Jiang Yu immediately went in with the bowl. Since the layout of the two houses was the same. She easily found the dining room, put the bowl on the table, and then blew into her hands. Huo Shiqian watched Jiang Yu walking in. the look in his eyes betrayed his complicated feelings. He doesn't understand why he made a concession this time. He followed her into the dining room and saw her blowing into her fingers. Jiang Yu saw him come over and bent his eyes toward him: "my coking is very good, how about you try it?" He stood in front of Jiang Yu, there was only half a step distance between them. His eyes showed his lightened mood: "Did you deliberately look for Xia Ke to borrow the next door apartment?" He just remembered that she was Shen Fei's sister, the mysterious second miss of the Shen family. Would the Shen family lack a house? Jiang Yu was silent for a moment, then said with a smile: "yes, I know that Xia Ke is your childhood friend, so I asked him for help." Huo Shiqian's eyes sank, with a hint of displeasure: "Jiang Yu, I don't like people who get ideas about me." She looked at his downcast look and realized that he'd gotten a more imposing presence. Even if his expression is still light, there is a sharp "V" between his eyebrows. She put her hand on the table and stood on tiptoe to get close to him:
"But, Huo Shiqian, I want to get ideas about you.
That ... Noodles don't taste good if a long time had passed. " She stepped back and said before going out: "The bowl was bought yesterday. So if you don't want to eat it, just pour it out." Huo Shiqian turned his head and silently watched Jiang Yu's leaving, then he looked at the steaming hot bowl on the table. He suppressed the strange feelings he was experiencing, took his coat and left the apartment. Jiang Yu who was leaning against the door, heard Huo Shiqian close the door and leave, she sighed, closed her door and went back to bed to sleep. After sleeping for more than an hour, she woke up, staring at the ceiling in a daze. She dreamed of Huo Shiqian again. It was a hot day of May, with the sunset glow falling on his body. He watched with a light smile. He was holding her hand and it felt a touch of palpitating coolness. He said, "Jiang Yu, let's get together."
Here it is update 2/5. Hopefully I'll make it 7 chapter in 7 days.

On a separate note, today is "Aïd al Adha", for those who are Muslims they know what I'm talking about. For those who don't, It's basically a sacred holiday we celebrate yearly by sacrificing a sheep to god. It's a very important celebration for Muslims and a chance to reunite with your family. Unfortunately, due to Covid-19 we can't celebrate it properly. Of course health is way more important than any celebration, but it's still a disappointment
