Chen Jing and Kong Xue finished their lunch in a slightly silent atmosphere.

"Sister Xue, let me take care of it. You still need to rest more as your fever has just gone down." Chen Jing stood up and said.

Kong Xue hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "I'll trouble you, Xiao Chen."

"No trouble." Chen Jing responded, got up, took the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen and cleaned them. When he finished and walked to the living room, he found that Kong Xue had made another pot of hot tea.

Chen Jing took a look, took the medicine he bought in the morning to the living room, and after preparing it according to the doctor's instructions, he sat across from Kong Xue and said, "Sister Xue, you have to take the medicine a few more times."

Kong Xue was slightly startled, then said with a smile on her delicate and beautiful face: "Xiao Chen, why do I feel like you are taking care of me like a little girl?"

When Chen Jing heard this, he thought to himself, Sister Xue, weren't you just a little girl in the morning? You were also a very naughty little girl.

However, he also knew that it would be difficult to say this, as it would make Kong Xue very embarrassed, so he turned around and said, "No, I'm just reminding you, Sister Xia Xue."

Kong Xue nodded lightly, took the medicine, drank a few sips of tea, and then said, "Xiao Chen, are you free in the next two days?" While talking, she poured Chen Jing a cup of black tea.

"What's the matter, Sister Xue?" Chen Jing took a sip from the tea cup and asked.

Kong Xue glanced at him and replied: "Just, I want to treat you to a meal." After a moment, she seemed to be afraid that Chen Jing would misunderstand something, and added: "I just want to treat you to a meal, there is no other meaning."

.”

After saying this, Kong Xue pursed her lips subconsciously.

Chen Jing was stunned when he heard this. He simply invited himself to a meal, without any other meaning?

This sentence sounds normal at first glance, but upon closer inspection, something is wrong. It stands to reason that Kong Xue invited this meal to thank Chen Jing for taking care of her this time, and then added the meaning of "no" at the end.

normal.

But Kong Xue did not mention that it was because of gratitude. Instead, it turned out that she was afraid that Chen Jing would misunderstand that she invited her to dinner because of gratitude.

This invitation to dinner as a thank you is undoubtedly a bit polite. It is a good thing for Chen Jing not to mention thank you, because it means that in Kong Xue's heart, he is no longer an ordinary friend.

Chen Jing was a little surprised and quickly responded: "Okay, then where can we eat?"

Kong Xue took a sip of tea and said casually: "Let's go out to eat this time. Well~ go shopping after eating? I've been very busy with work in the past few years and haven't gone shopping in several years. This time

I got sick because I was too tired from work, and now I want to relax."

Hearing this, Chen Jingjunlang's face immediately showed a happy smile. Although Kong Xue's meaning was expressed quite implicitly, he understood it.

This mature elder sister is taking the initiative to go on a date with him. Single men and women go out to eat and go shopping together. If this is not a date, what else can it be?

By this time, Kong Xue seemed to have put aside most of her worries and decided to give herself and Chen Jing a chance to get together.

What the two of them need next is just an opportunity, and they can naturally start this relationship between brother and sister who are six years apart.

"Okay, I like shopping the most, but Sister Xue, can you go see a movie or something after shopping?" Chen Jing thought slightly and said this deliberately.

If single men and women go to the movies together, then the date will be more interesting.

Kong Xue naturally understood this, smiled lightly, rolled her eyes at Chen Jing, nodded slightly, and said gently and gracefully: "It's all okay."

Chen Jing smiled even happier when he heard this.

After all, Kong Xue had just recovered from the illness and was weak. After taking the medicine, she felt sleepy and went back to the bedroom to sleep.

Knowing that Kong Xue's fever had gone away, Chen Jing felt relieved and went back to his rental house to take a bath and wake up.

Although he slept on the sofa for a long time, he didn't rest very well, and he was a little sleepy now. However, he didn't want to waste the three appraisal opportunities today, and was planning to go out and try his luck in the afternoon.

After knowing that he and Kong Xue really had a chance to get together, Chen Jing was really eager to make money and succeed. He didn't want to waste any opportunity.

There is a saying that is true, women are indeed one of the driving forces of men's struggle.

But having said that, Chen Jing was still a little confused at this moment, why Sister Xue's attitude changed so quickly. She was obviously worried before, so why was she suddenly willing to date him, or even proposed it on her own initiative.

This change occurred after she fell ill in the morning, and Chen Jing knew very well that this incident must have changed Kong Xue's mind.

What he wondered about was what he had done to make Kong Xue change his mind.

"I didn't seem to have done anything?" Chen Jing secretly recalled everything he discovered in the morning. From his own point of view, it seemed that it was nothing special. He just took care of the sick Kong Xue.

But he had forgotten what Shen Jing had said to him before.

"As for Kong Xue, although she is usually dignified and dignified, she actually also likes romance in her heart. It's just that the romance she likes is not the kind of sending flowers or surprises. What she likes is the ordinary romance."

These were Shen Jing's original words. Chen Jing didn't understand them very well at the time, but that wasn't important. What was important was that he himself was actually a man who could bring romance to others.

What is romance in the ordinary?

When he brings you hot water, he will control the water temperature to just right in your mouth. If you are sick, he will prepare light white porridge in advance for you to warm.

This is the romance that Kong Xue, or many young mature sisters, want, plain and full of life. After all, when you are young and mature, what you long for is a warm, plain and happy life.

In comparison, young girls don't care much about these things. It can't be said that they don't care, but they lack the years of accumulation and experience, and they are not careful enough to discover the romance in these ordinary things.

In short, it is normal for Chen Jing not to understand what is special about what happened in the morning, because he did not do those things deliberately. Perhaps it is precisely because he did not do it deliberately that Kong Xue put down many worries.

Soon after, Chen Jing changed his clothes and went out. He was going to go shopping in the antique street, and by the way, he would go to the New Century Auction House to ask when the money would be received.

After the Qiyang Stone Inkstone is successfully auctioned, the money will definitely not arrive immediately. There are still many procedures to go through, such as paying the taxes due.

Paying taxes in accordance with the law is the responsibility and obligation of every citizen.

If there were no taxes, how could the country have so much money to protect citizens' various rights? The road in front of the door, the bridge by the river, and the sentries guarding the city gates at the border are all collected from countless taxes.
