Chapter 858 The Young Master of the Richest Family X Iceberg Star Commander 17
Neither of them knew how long it took them to finish their breakfast, but it was already this late, so there was no need to eat lunch.
And after what happened this morning, Bai Ci was no longer the shy general as before.
Now Shen Xi leaned lazily in his arms, moving from time to time, as if looking for a more comfortable position.
"Aci, do you have any work arrangements this afternoon?" Shen Xi asked softly, with a hint of anticipation in his tone.
Bai Ci shook his head slightly and replied, "No, I finished it yesterday. I can take you back later."
After hearing this, Shen Xi moved in his arms in dissatisfaction, with a hint of coquettishness in his tone: "Isn't it good for me to stay here with you? Why do you have to send me back?"
Bai Ci sighed softly and explained, "I just thought this place is a bit shabby and I'm afraid you won't be able to get used to it. And even if you stay here, I'll be on missions most of the time and won't be able to accompany you properly."
He paused and continued, "Besides, the military base is a military network and cannot be connected at will. There are no entertainment facilities for you to entertain yourself. Won't you be bored staying here?"
Shen Xi listened and was silent for a while, as if thinking about Bai Ci's words. Indeed, life in the military base might be too monotonous and boring for him.
"You've been so tired these days. Will you have a day off in the next few days?" Shen Xi changed the subject and asked with concern.
Bai Ci smiled slightly and replied, "There should be a few days of rest. Once the tasks are completed, we can go to a quiet place together and relax."
After hearing this, Shen Xi showed a satisfied smile on his face: "That's good. I don't want you to be so tired all the time."
The two of them snuggled together intimately in the base for a long time, as if time had stopped at this moment, enjoying the sweet tranquility that belonged only to them.
It was around two o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun had already set slightly, that the two of them walked out of the base hand in hand, smiling.
Bai Ci walked familiarly towards the car that Shen Xi had driven that day, opened the door, and politely invited Shen Xi to sit down before he sat in the driver's seat.
Along the way, soft and soothing music was playing in the car. The two occasionally talked in low voices, sharing each other's little thoughts. The sweet atmosphere filled every corner of the car.
When they got home, the clock had already pointed to 4 p.m. The young couple was usually entangled in busy affairs, and they finally had some free time, so they naturally cherished it and did not want to let every minute and every second slip away.
Although they did not deliberately arrange any special activities, they just stayed together quietly, or sat side by side on the sofa, one leaning on the other's shoulder to read a magazine; or strolled around the room casually, occasionally their eyes met and they smiled at each other. This simple companionship was full of warmth and comfort.
Before he knew it, around 6 o'clock in the evening, Shen Xi's stomach began to "protest" and growl.
He then realized that he was hungry, so he tilted his head, looked at Bai Ci beside him, and asked coquettishly: "Ah Ci, what are we having for dinner tonight?"
Shen Xi then remembered that since he came back suddenly this time, he did not inform Aunt Wang in advance, so naturally there was no dinner prepared at home.
"Xixi, are you hungry?" Bai Ci looked at him lovingly and said gently, "What do you want to eat? I'll have someone send the ingredients over and cook it for you."
Bai Ci's cooking skills are superb. Every time he cooked for Shen Xi, the dishes he made always won Shen Xi's praise.
But these days, Bai Ci has been busy and worked really hard. He finally has a chance to rest. How could Shen Xi bear to let him work harder?
"Forget it, let's go out to eat."
Shen Xi said decisively, "You finally got a rest, I don't want you to get tired."
Bai Ci was filled with joy when he heard this. He knew too well how considerate and caring Shen Xi was to him, so he quickly said, "It's okay, I'm not tired. I'm so happy to cook for you."
Shen Xicai didn't listen to what he said next: "How could I not know whether you are tired or not? Don't lie to me. Let's go out for hot pot. I haven't eaten it for a long time. I'm craving for it."
As he spoke, he excitedly turned on the virtual bracelet on his wrist, began to swipe the screen skillfully, and carefully selected a hot pot restaurant.
He carefully selected from many businesses and finally chose a chain hot pot restaurant not far from his home. This restaurant has a very good reputation online and is very popular.
Moreover, it happens to be located in a large shopping mall, so after eating hot pot, you can also take a stroll around the surrounding area.
Shen Xi had already made up his mind to buy some clothes for Bai Ci and keep them in his own residence. After all, Bai Ci would be staying here for quite a while in the future, so he had to prepare them in advance.
After Shen Xi selected the hot pot restaurant, he quickly completed the reservation on the virtual bracelet.
The two of them packed up and headed for their destination.
In the evening, the streets are bustling with traffic and neon lights flashing, making the city particularly lively.
Along the way, Bai Ci held Shen Xi's hand tightly. Occasionally, when they encountered a crowded crowd, he would turn sideways to protect Shen Xi behind him, his eyes full of concern.
Soon, they arrived at the chain hot pot restaurant.
The store was bustling with people and the air was filled with the rich aroma of hot pot, making people salivate.
The waiter enthusiastically led them to their reserved seats and handed them menus.
Shen Xi took the menu, his eyes sparkling with excitement. While looking at the dishes, he discussed with Bai Ci: "Ah Ci, I want to eat shrimp paste, tripe, and tender beef. What do you want to eat?"
Bai Ci looked at Shen Xi's impatient look and said with a smile, "Anything is fine."
After ordering the dishes, Shen Xi handed the menu back to the waiter and asked for a shabu-shabu hotpot.
When eating hot pot, Shen Xi rarely eats the red pot.
Although Bai Ci didn't say anything, he silently wrote it down: "Xixi doesn't like spicy food."
After eating hot pot, the two strolled arm in arm in the shopping mall.
Shen Xi took Bai Ci into a men's clothing store. The clothes in the store were of various styles, fashionable yet steady.
Shen Xi walked among the clothes racks, carefully selecting clothes suitable for Bai Ci. From time to time, he picked up a piece and tried it on Bai Ci: "Ah Ci, what do you think of this one? It must suit you very well."
"Why are you buying me clothes?"
After Shen Xi stuffed the clothes in his hand into his arms, he answered: "What if you want to live in my house in the future? You should prepare some clothes for changing."
Bai Ci was stunned for just a moment before he understood what Shen Xi meant. He took the clothes and said, "Then I'll try them on and see if they look good."
"it is good."
Bai Ci has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, is 189cm tall, and is a natural clothes hanger, so he looks good in anything he wears.
Shen Xi couldn't help but buy things for him, and soon half of the store was sold out.
Bai Ci looked at Shen Xi who was filling in his home address at the counter. He couldn't help but walk behind him, approach him and whisper in his ear: "Xixi bought me so many clothes, are you planning to support me?"
Shen Xi was first surprised at how brave he suddenly became. After looking around, he found that the clerk had gone to check the size.
He turned around and pulled Bai Ci by the collar, bringing them closer together again.
"If you have this plan, then General Bai, are you willing to let me support you and keep you at home so that I can take care of you alone?"
