Chapter 1332: Chapter 493: Cold and Aloof, Overnight Fee (Part 3)

Cheng Qiuyu took a small sip, secretly glanced at Tang Song under the light, and felt a warm, inexplicable sensation rising in her heart.

For some reason, ever since she left the private room, she couldn’t help but feel an... allure towards Tang Song.

It was as if she could find the security and warmth she longed for from him.

Although she seemed cold on the outside, she was actually quite timid.

When she was young, if a teacher or her mother scolded her loudly, she would be so frightened that she couldn’t sleep.

She often had nightmares, was afraid of all kinds of insects, and would hide under her covers every time it thundered or flashed lightning.

She tried riding a motorcycle and made it a hobby.

One reason was because Su Yu once played a cool biker girl in a drama.

The other reason was that she hoped this would make her more independent and braver.

After a while, the food began to arrive on the table in succession.

Golden, tender meat skewers, savory fried instant noodles, and refreshing side dishes made Tang Song’s appetite immediately open wide.

With his current constitution, his appetite was almost double what it used to be.

Looking at Qiuqiu across from him who seemed somewhat shy, Tang Song smiled and passed the meat skewer over, ”Try it, it tastes really good.”

”Thank you.” Cheng Qiuyu took the lamb skewer and took a bite, then suddenly said, ”President Tang, thank you for today, but I don’t think I can help out with the live stream at the filming location, I’m sorry.”

Initially, she wanted to use her connections to help Tang Song and her senior sister, but it unexpectedly caused trouble in the end.

If it weren’t for her senior sister’s period today, they might have encountered some kind of situation in the private room.

She felt scared afterward and guilty.

”It’s okay, it’s not your fault.” Tang Song waved the lamb skewer in his hand in a relaxed manner.

”But... I had said I would, and then...”

”Alright, let’s not talk about this tonight.” Tang Song shook his head and took up his mug of beer again.

After clinking glasses, he began to gossip with her about Su Yu.

Speaking about her idol, Cheng Qiuyu seemed like a different person, her usually cold face melting instantly and showing the liveliness a girl her age should have.

In her eyes, Tang Song was also a dedicated fan of Su Yu, even getting his hands on many of Su Yu’s candid shots through connections.

This was one of the reasons she first developed a fondness for him.

The night grew deeper, with a gentle evening breeze blowing.

Their conversation became more and more engaging, and a genuine, charming smile appeared on Cheng Qiuyu’s face.

The little seedlings of the [Dream Flower Seed] swayed gently, with their verdant micro light shining brighter within the darkness.

In the midst of it, because of an accident, Cheng Qiuyu knocked over the tray, and skewers and chili powder spilled over the table.

Watching Tang Song seriously clean up and constantly offer reassurance.

Her gaze grew somewhat dazed.

At that moment, he seemed more like a gentle friend, perhaps even like a... lover from a love story?

As soon as this thought surfaced, she quickly suppressed it, lowered her head, afraid that he might notice her impure thoughts.

Just then.

The phone rang all of a sudden.

Cheng Qiuyu snapped back to reality, glanced at the phone screen, and her face stiffened, her gaze instantly dimmed.

[Senior Sister Mengting]

She answered the call, and soon her senior sister’s gentle voice came through the receiver, ”Hey, Qiuqiu, is everything alright over there?”

”No, no problem, I’m with President Tang.”

”That’s good, I was worried about you. Remember to drink less alcohol, and if you’re feeling scared at night, you can ask other colleagues to stay with you.”

”Mm, I understand, senior sister.”

After hanging up the call, Cheng Qiuyu pressed her lips tightly together, and her expression returned to being cold.

”All cleaned up. I ordered some more grilled skewers, let’s continue.” Tang Song came over carrying a new tray, which had various grilled skewers on it.

”Mm, thank you, President Tang.”

”Why so formal? I told you just to call me by my name.”

Tang Song smiled and did not return to his position but instead sat directly beside Cheng Qiuyu.

Their bodies were pressed closely together, breaths audible, exceedingly intimate.

Cheng Qiuyu shivered slightly, bit down hard on her lower lip, and suddenly stood up.

”What’s wrong?” Tang Song raised an eyebrow, noticing her unusual behavior.

Cheng Qiuyu nervously clenched her fist, left her seat, and sat on the other side of Tang Song with her eyes lowered.

After a while, she finally looked up, her lips moved, ”I... I have a condition.”

”Uh?” Tang Song stared wide-eyed, ”What do you mean? Are you sick?”

(⊙_⊙)?

The sudden statement from this designer friend left him completely stunned.

”That’s not what I meant.” Cheng Qiuyu’s hand under the table pinched her thigh hard, her tone calm yet tinged with suppression, ”I’m not used to intimate contact with the opposite sex, both physiologically and psychologically, it makes me feel uncomfortable.”

”Uh...” Tang Song was momentarily speechless, never expecting the conversation to turn in this direction.

Cheng Qiuyu took a deep breath and continued, ”I have low sexual desire, meaning I don’t feel an urge to date or engage deeply with guys, nor do I have fantasies in that area. So... I’m not used to being too close to males, and I hope President Tang can forgive me.”

Tang Song’s eye twitched.

Goodness! Cheng Qiuqiu! Are you implying that I’m harassing you?!

Am I that kind of person?!

Cheng Qiuyu lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes, speaking in a voice so low it was nearly inaudible, ”Sorry, it’s my personal habit, I hope you don’t mind, President Tang.”

”It’s okay, I understand.” Tang Song slightly furrowed his brow, trying to ease the atmosphere, ”Have you seen a doctor?”
