Chapter 1731: What Exactly Is Their Relationship?

~7 min read 1,339 words

"Oh, so you believe me then?"

"It's just..."

At this very moment, Jiang Motian felt that neither admitting nor denying it was right.

She felt as if she had fallen into a pit...

Xie Wanyi looked at Jiang Motian, who was pursing her lips tightly with a conflicted expression, and suddenly laughed out loud.

Then he said, "Alright, I won't tease you anymore, let's eat."

As he spoke, Xie Wanyi naturally picked up a quail egg and placed it in Jiang Motian's bowl.

Jiang Motian brought the egg up to her nose and sniffed it.

Then she picked it back up and frowned, saying, "This one of yours has a very strong medicinal taste."

"You can't complain; you have to share the joys and sorrows with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Wanyi picked up the egg and stuffed it into Jiang Motian's mouth.

Instantly, Jiang Motian furrowed her brows tightly.

It was her first time eating a bitter-tasting quail egg.

It really was...

Culinary disaster!

Jiang Motian picked up her water glass and drank half of it.

When she raised her eyes, she found Xie Wanyi looking at her with a smile.

In this instant, Jiang Motian felt bewildered about the relationship between the two of them.

Does the way the two of them are count as being together?

It probably shouldn't count.

Xie Wanyi hadn't explicitly said those words.

But...

Why wouldn't he poke through this layer of window paper?

Although it is said that a relationship that develops naturally is also very good.

But Jiang Motian still really hoped that Xie Wanyi would take the initiative to ask: Can you be my girlfriend...

Jiang Motian suddenly lowered her eyes, hiding her intricate thoughts.

Inside a specialty store, a clerk was organizing the merchandise on the display counter.

At this moment, two people walked over.

The clerk put down the task at hand.

He turned to the side and said with a smile, "Welcome, is there anything the two of you need?"

Jiang Motian's goal was very clear.

She pointed to a health monitoring wrist-

band and said, "I bought this the day before yesterday, but my phone can't see my sleep data from the night."

"I see. Did you bring the product with you? Let me take a look."

"I brought it."

After Jiang Motian finished speaking, she looked at the person beside her and then tilted her chin at him.

Xie Wanyi silently unfastened the wristband from his wrist and handed it to the clerk.

The clerk took it with both hands and, while at it, glanced at the man and woman in front of him.

These two must be a couple, right?

Standing together, they are truly a sight to behold.

They are practically comparable to celebrities!

The clerk sighed inwardly while efficiently checking the wristband.

After a careful inspection, the clerk said, "This batch of products is prone to disconnecting from phones, which results in the inability to receive real-time data. How about I replace it with a new model for you for free?"

Jiang Motian blinked and then asked, "So, it's a product issue?"

"Yes."

"Then, then why wasn't it mentioned when I bought it?!"

"This is a matter of probability; if the wristband doesn't have this issue, it's still a very good product."

After hearing these words, Xie Wanyi sighed heavily.

At the same time, he looked at Jiang Motian with a mournful expression.

Jiang Motian did not respond; she... felt a bit guilty.

This monitoring wristband was something Jiang Motian had bought and given to Xie Wanyi to monitor his physical condition.

As a multifunctional wristband, it could also observe sleep patterns.

However, yesterday, Xie Wanyi's nighttime sleep duration was actually zero!

Jiang Motian thought Xie Wanyi had stayed up late working overtime yesterday.

So she had gone to find Xie Wanyi, full of anger.

But Xie Wanyi was so innocent.

He said he had gone to sleep after ten o'clock last night.

To prove himself, he suggested coming to the specialty store to see if the product had

malfunctioned.

As it turns out...

There really was a problem with the product!

Jiang Motian felt a bit awkward.

She rubbed her forehead with her fingers, then said, "Then let's swap for a different model, but I still want this color."

"Very well, please wait a moment."

The shop assistant went to find the new model of the product.

Jiang Motian pursed her lips and glanced to the side.

With that look, she discovered Xie Wanyi standing with his arms crossed, wearing an expression that demanded an explanation.

But... did this really need an explanation?

It was just Jiang Motian who had wronged someone, that's all.

Jiang Motian lowered her eyes, slumped her shoulders, and said sullenly, "Sorry."

Xie Wanyi wasn't really trying to hold a grudge.

He raised his hand to ruffle Jiang Motian's hair and sighed, "You, you need to give me some trust."

Jiang Motian nodded quickly.

"I will try my best to do what I promised you."

Jiang Motian nodded again.

"Then what are you prepared to say to coax me?"

Uh...

Coax?

Jiang Motian looked up at Xie Wanyi, thought for a moment, and asked, "Shall I... sing you a song?"

Xie Wanyi laughed and countered, "Are you treating me like a child to be coaxed? But I am a man."

"Then how should a man be coaxed?"

"You... think about it."

Jiang Motian actually thought about it, then she snapped her fingers: "I'll buy you a pair of sneakers!"

Xie Wanyi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why did you think of giving me sneakers?"

"I saw that the birthday gift Momo gave her male classmate was a pair of sneakers."

"But I'm not a student anymore; I'm more mature."

Mature, huh...

Jiang Motian thought of another idea and said, "I can help you facilitate a business deal! How about that?"

"Not great. You really are a piece of rotten wood."

Xie Wanyi shook his head as he spoke, seemingly no longer holding out hope for Jiang Motian.

But...

Jiang

Motian was not a piece of rotten wood!

She knew what Xie Wanyi was looking forward to!

It was just that their current relationship was awkward.

Jiang Motian would not do the things Xie Wanyi was expecting at this time.

Since Xie Wanyi felt Jiang Motian was unromantic, Jiang Motian would simply do as he wished!

She made a face at Xie Wanyi and retorted, "You're the one who's rotten wood!"

After saying that, Jiang Motian raised her own wrist and muttered, "Why is there no problem with mine?"

Jiang Motian had bought two bracelets, and her own was purple.

The experience of using it was quite good.

Xie Wanyi looked at her snow-white wrist and sighed, "I already said it's a matter of probability; you're just luckier, unlike me, being so unlucky."

When he said the last two words, he unconsciously deepened his tone.

At first listen, it was clearly implying something.

Jiang Motian wanted to end this topic, so she said, "Alright, I'll treat you to a big meal in a bit."

"What kind of big meal? The kind that nourishes the body?"

"No, no, no, the kind that is a feast for the eyes."

That bitter quail egg had left Jiang Motian traumatized.

She probably wouldn't eat Medicinal Cuisine ever again.

Seeing her lingering fear, Xie Wanyi curled his lips.

Soon, the new bracelet was delivered.

Xie Wanyi put it directly on his wrist.

His version was black.

Paired with Jiang Motian's, they looked exactly like a couple's set.

However, neither of them noticed this small detail.

Leaving the specialty store, Xie Wanyi drove toward the restaurant recommended by Jiang Motian.

However, halfway through the drive...

"Stop quickly, I think I saw Yangyang!"

Xie Wanyi pulled the car over to the side of the road.

Afterwards, he followed the direction Jiang Motian pointed and looked over.

It really was Wei Yangyang.

Only, at this moment,

Wei Yangyang... was a bit disheveled.
