Under meals

Chapter 36

Tao Xue and Tang Lijie met three years ago. Their love affair was brought together by an enthusiastic female client in Tao Xue's nail salon.

Tao Xue has a fiery personality, but it is the kind of character that is easy to soften and tempt once she meets someone who treats her well.

Tang Lijie's ability is average, but he seems to be honest and honest. He would say a lot of sweet words to Tao Xue, so the two got married two years ago after not dating for long.

Tao Mingzhuo can only use the word "ordinary" to describe his brother-in-law.

Ordinary appearance and personality, ordinary work income, even after Tang Lijie started to set up a company to start his own business after marriage, most of the company's establishment funds were paid by Tao Xue.

Tao Mingzhuo originally thought that Tang Lijie was superior to Tao Xue. During the process of getting along with Tang Lijie, Tao Mingzhuo also discovered a different side of this seemingly simple and honest brother-in-law.

For example, his company is not running as well as he boasted at the dinner table, and he told Tao Xue that he never touches cigarettes or alcohol, but during a family dinner, Tao Mingzhuo, who came back from the toilet, bumped into Tang Lijie, who was hiding outside on the phone, discovered that he not only smoked, but also threw cigarette butts on the ground at will, and said some dirty words to the other end of the phone.

But at that time, Tao Xue was immersed in the happiness of newlyweds, and Tao Mingzhuo had only graduated from college at that time, she still regarded Tao Mingzhuo as a child, and felt that Tao Mingzhuo's hostility towards Tang Lijie was mainly due to "reluctance to bear Marry off your own sister" Such a childish temper.

At that time, Tao Xue said to Tao Mingzhuo while rubbing Tao Mingzhuo's hair: "I didn't love you for nothing, but it's okay, your sister and I don't need anything, as long as he treats me well."

But what Tao Mingzhuo didn't expect was that Tang Lijie couldn't do it just to be nice to Tao Xue.

The cheating was discovered by a little girl working in Tao Xue's shop. She saw Tang Lijie and a young girl kissing and hugging in the shopping mall. She was so shocked that half of her body went numb. She didn't remember to take pictures until she was far away. , In the end, only two blurred back photos of holding hands were taken.

When Tao Xue questioned Tang Lijie with the photo, he faltered, saying that the woman was just a colleague of the company, and she fell on her leg a while ago, so he just helped to support her, and said that the little girl in Tao Xue's shop was kind Too vicious, saying that she was jealous of Tao Xue's happy marriage, that's why she made such rumors to sow discord between them.

Tao Xue just laughed angrily at that time, because the girl in the photo had obviously leaned her head on Tang Lijie's shoulder, yet he could still say such a lame excuse of a broken leg without blushing.

Tao Xue said to Tao Mingzhuo: "He was very careful. I checked his phone later and deleted all the chat records. I couldn't find any substantive evidence."

"But it is precisely because they have been deleted that it proves that what they talked about is definitely something I can't see." She said, "I want to divorce him."

Tao Xue loves beauty, and always keeps the house clean and tidy. Before Tao Mingzhuo came to her house for a meal, the flowers and fruits on the table would be in the freshest state.

But Tao Mingzhuo only noticed now that Tao Xue's house had obviously not been tidied up for a few days, and her eyes seemed a little swollen.

He knew that Tao Xue must have cried secretly several times these days.

After hearing all this, Tao Mingzhuo didn't even have time to get angry. His first reaction was to stand up and go directly to Tang Lijie's company to beat him to death first.

"Don't cause trouble." Tao Xue grabbed his arm and said, "I just want to divorce him now."

"Our parents think that even if we want to divorce, we should delay the divorce until after the child is born, but I don't want to be under the same roof with him for a moment."

Tao Xue choked up and said, "Now they can say to wait until the child is born before leaving, and after the child is born, they will say to wait until the child grows up before leaving, and then I will never be able to get rid of him for the rest of my life."

Tao Mingzhuo was originally worried that Tao Xue would think about the old relationship and hesitated to let go, but now seeing her sober and determined, he let out a breath and sat down beside Tao Xue again.

"Sister," he said, "I'll be with you."

Tao Xue's eyes were red.

After a while, she lowered her head and whispered, "Baby said he wants to eat cake."

Tao Mingzhuo's heart tightened with discomfort.

But he realized that Tao Xue was already depressed, and he couldn't let her continue to be depressed like this, so he took a deep breath and said, "I'll get it for you."

Tao Mingzhuo originally wanted to stay with Tao Xue for a while, and even hesitated whether to spend the night with her, but after eating dessert, Tao Xue's mood improved a lot, and finally kicked and beat him out of the gate in a daze.

"Get off, get off." Tao Xue said, "Your sister and I are not that fragile, there is no reason for a young man to stay at my sister's house to sleep, please don't disturb my leisure time to raise a baby alone?"

Tao Mingzhuo naturally knew that Tao Xue didn't want to bother him, that's why he said such words.

But Tao Xue insisted on sending him away, Tao Mingzhuo couldn't resist her no matter what, and in the end he had no choice but to leave.

When Tao Mingzhuo returned home, it was already around ten o'clock in the evening.

After arriving home, he briefly described Tao Xue's situation to Jing Ci.

Things like cheating during pregnancy can only be done by animals, and a mild-tempered person like Jing Ci couldn't help frowning after hearing this.

Jing Ci asked: "Is she going to get a divorce?"

Tao Mingzhuo sighed: "My sister wants to leave immediately, but Tang Lijie probably doesn't want to leave. My sister is already struggling with pregnancy, and there is not much evidence of her infidelity. It is estimated that the lawsuit will not be easy at that time." , we can only live separately for now."

Jing Ci pondered and nodded.

"My sister said that she is fine living alone now, and she will not let me accompany her. But she also told me today that Tang Lijie always put some nutritional supplements at the door of her house in the past few days, just this... ...I can't rest assured no matter what."

Tao Mingzhuo took a deep breath: "So after getting off work for a while, I have to go to see her every day."

Jing Ci nodded, and said: "You should spend more time with her. After such an incident, the pregnant woman's psychological state must be paid attention to at all times."

"And if you are determined to get a divorce, then don't accept all the things the man gave you." Jing Ci said, "The other party probably has consulted with a lawyer in advance, and the sending of these things may also be to leave some evidence. It will be more beneficial when fighting for child custody in the future.”

Tao Mingzhuo was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but swear: "I knew that when my sister was pregnant with the child, she didn't go home. Now why are you giving these away in a hypocritical manner..."

Jing Ci said: "There is no need to worry about going to court. I know some top-level lawyers here who can help your sister."

Jing Ci's voice is soft, and what he said can always make people feel at ease. Tao Mingzhuo looked at his face, and after a while he breathed a sigh of relief, and said hoarsely: "Thank you."

Jing Ci shook her head: "Don't say these two words to me."

Tao Mingzhuo was exhausted this night.

He was too tired to speak, he slumped on the sofa and emptied his mind for a few seconds, his eyes fell on Jing Ci's laptop, and he suddenly asked, "Have you finished your dinner yet?"

Jing Ci was quiet for a moment, and said "hmm".

Tao Mingzhuo nodded: "Then I'll just get something to fill my mouth."

Tao Mingzhuo went to the kitchen and found that there were no bowls and kitchen utensils in the sink.He was even more taken aback after opening the refrigerator, because the ingredients inside seemed untouched.

As for the air fryer he bought, he didn't even open the package, and the whole kitchen can be said to have no trace of being turned on.

Tao Mingzhuo walked back to the living room, hesitantly asked Jing Ci: "Have you really had dinner?"

Jing Ci looked away from the screen naturally, and said after a while, "Well, I felt a little tired after I came back, so I didn't cook, and just ordered a takeaway."

Tao Mingzhuo felt that Jingci's answer sounded reasonable.

When he himself is lazy on weekends, he also likes to order takeaway for three meals a day, so he nodded clearly and said, "Oh, just eat it."

Back in the kitchen, Tao Mingzhuo didn't have much energy to fiddle with the air fryer. He boiled a pot of hot water and made himself a bowl of instant noodles.

The noodles in a small paper bowl were quickly wiped clean by him. Tao Mingzhuo had a big appetite, and he was tired after another day. He drank all the soup and still didn't feel full, so he washed himself another peach to eat.

After taking a bite and turning around, Tao Mingzhuo found that Jing Ci sitting at the dining table was watching him.

When Tao Mingzhuo was eating noodles just now, he felt that Jing Ci was staring at him, but at that time he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, so he didn't think much about it.

At this moment, Tao Mingzhuo held up a peach, stood in a daze at the door of the kitchen, and asked hesitantly, "Do you want to eat a peach? I'll wash another one for you."

"Yeah." After a long while, he heard Jing Ci say, "I want to have a taste."

Tao Mingzhuo turned around at first, and was going to get another peach from the refrigerator to wash and eat for Jing Ci.

Then he suddenly realized that what Jing Ci said to himself was "I want to have a bite", not "I want to eat one".

This means that Jing Ci should want to eat a peach with herself.

The ripeness of the peach is just right, it is a bit soft, the juice is full, and the mouth is sweet.

Every time Tao Mingzhuo took a bite, he fed the peach to Jingci's mouth and watched him take a bite slowly.

This time Tao Mingzhuo gnawed very carefully, in order to let Jingci eat more, he only dared to bite off a little bit of skin with each bite.Because judging by his usual speed of flaunting fruits, he took a bite on the left side of this peach and another bite on the right, and basically only the core in the middle was left.

Jingci's eating looks are elegant and delicate, every bite of a peach takes a while to chew, Tao Mingzhuo is bored waiting, so he can't help but look at his moist lips soaked in peach juice.

When Tao Mingzhuo raised his eyes in a little panic, he found that Jing Ci was also looking at him.

Jing Ci bent her eyes and asked him: "Do you want to eat later?"

The peach was not finished in the end, it was forgotten on the table alone, and rolled down to the edge of the table bit by bit.

Because Tao Mingzhuo clumsily kissed Jing Ci's lips again.

Regarding the matter of kissing, Tao Mingzhuo feels that he has begun to get better and has gained a lot of know-how

In terms of skills, Tao Mingzhuo is still extremely young, but fortunately, the two people's bodies fit very well, as long as Jing Ci gives some suitable guidance at a specific time, Tao Mingzhuo will quickly give a warm response.

The two were sitting side by side on the chairs in front of the dining table at the moment, no matter in terms of posture or position, they were actually not very suitable for kissing.

So Jing Ci didn't hesitate, he stood up straight, and then directly straddled Tao Mingzhuo's body.

He casually put his hands on Tao Mingzhuo's shoulders and kissed again.The bodies of the two were close to each other, and they seemed to be able to feel each other's body temperature through the thin shirt fabric.

Such a posture is bold and lustful, Tao Mingzhuo felt that his waist was touching Jing Ci's inner thigh, and he was immediately taken aback.

He subconsciously wrapped his arms around Jing Ci's waist, his palms pressed against the soft and warm flesh, and he felt that the breath he exhaled at this moment seemed to be scorching hot.

When he raised his eyes, Tao Mingzhuo found that Jing Ci was panting and looking down at him.

Jing Ci smiled quietly, but the smile in his eyes was sly.

Tao Mingzhuo realized that Jing Ci seemed to like to see herself caught off guard.

He was very unconvinced in his heart, so he immediately raised his face, kissed her fiercely and heavily, and regained the initiative in his own hands.

Jing Ci lowered her eyes and smiled to accept the youthful and passionate love.

Just kissing and kissing, Tao Mingzhuo found that the posture of the two of them seemed to be very convenient for him to explore some areas that he had never touched before, so his kiss gradually slipped down, falling on Jing Ci's neck and collarbone bit by bit superior.

He heard Jing Ci gasping lightly——

There was a short, broken gasp, almost imperceptible, but Tao Mingzhuo caught it in an instant, and he raised his head suddenly.

Jing Ci didn't notice Tao Mingzhuo's movements, his cheeks were slightly pink from the kiss, the water in his eyes glistened, and his eyes looked a little absent-minded.

Tao Mingzhuo felt his heartbeat soar to the peak in an instant.

When the two of them kissed before, he had always been the one who was foolishly probing, while Jing Ci always seemed to be calm and easy-going.

This was the first time that Tao Mingzhuo saw Jing Ci showing such a slightly bewildered expression, and gave some different reactions from the past.

Jing Ci looked really beautiful when she was emotional, Tao Mingzhuo felt his throat was as dry and hoarse as a handful of sand, and it was burning like a fire.

Then Tao Mingzhuo froze suddenly.

Jing Ci noticed that the young man in front of him stopped moving. He lowered his head and saw Tao Mingzhuo staring at his face with a stiff expression.

Jing Ci was stunned for a moment, raised her hand, and gently brushed away the messy hair on Tao Mingzhuo's forehead, only to find that his forehead was covered with sweat.

He asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Tao Mingzhuo didn't speak for a long time, and after a long time, he choked out an ambiguous sentence: "I don't know, I feel very strange..."

Jing Ci didn't understand what he meant: "What's strange? Is there something uncomfortable?"

As soon as these words came out, he felt that Tao Mingzhuo's state seemed to become more tense.

The young man's slightly red ears seemed to be bleeding at this moment, and Jing Ci heard him start talking nonsense: "I, I may be too tired today, I feel a little sleepy, and then I want to sleep..."

In the middle of the kiss, Tao Mingzhuo might be the only one in the world who was still blushing and panting, but suddenly said that he was sleepy and wanted to sleep.

Jing Ci felt a little confused, but also felt that Tao Mingzhuo's current state did look a bit wrong.

He frowned, and when he was about to ask a new question, he suddenly felt something, and shifted his gaze to Tao Mingzhuo's body.

Jing Ci was taken aback.

After a while, his brows relaxed, and he let out a soft "ah".

"Really?" Jing Ci raised her head, smiled and looked into Tao Mingzhuo's eyes, "But I don't think it's very sleepy."
