ead."Mr. Ning," the butler added, "Mr. Li has never brought anyone back before, you are the first. This includes going back to the old house. Mr. Ning is still very special to Mr. Li."Ning Shu couldn'...The handsome boy in my arms had just come out of the bath, and there was a pleasant scent of soap on him. But it couldn't quite mask his own natural body odor.

Jian Xiao was even a little dissatisfied that this flavor was being masked. He couldn't help but lower his head. He held the person tightly, his thin lips curled into a slight smirk, with an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

Ning Shu's build was naturally more slender than his. Sitting on Jiang Xiao, the other could easily circle his waist with one hand.

Feeling the tall boy's physique, especially the scorching heat radiating from him.

Ning Shu's breath almost stopped, he couldn't control his slightly chaotic thoughts, and couldn't help but move: "...A Xiao, you put me down first."

Jiang Xiao didn't let go, instead going to smell his hair.

Then, in a languid voice, trailing off at the end, he'd say, "I'm not done holding you yet."

Ning Shu remained silent.

If this had happened before he understood his own feelings, the other person's words wouldn't have fazed him. But now, his entire heart was pounding, like a hummingbird's wings.

Why do you always smell so good, huh

Jiang Xiao lowered his head to smell Ning Shu's neck.

His high, proud nose tip touched just at the slender, pale skin of her neck.

...caused Ning Shu to tremble slightly.

He couldn't help but tighten his fingers, gripping onto Jiang Xiao's clothes.

...and the person didn't feel at all that this action was ambiguous or wrong. He hugged the handsome boy's waist and twitched, "It's always been like this, I remember when I was in elementary school, there was a fat guy who kept leaning against you and sniffing..."

At this point, Jiang Xiao narrowed her eyes and stopped.

Later, that little fat kid got beaten up by him after school.

Jiang Xiao still remembered how he had sent Ning Shu back first and then taken a detour.

Ning Shu didn't know what the other person was thinking at this moment, he took a deep breath. Maybe Jiang Xiao didn't think it was anything, but for him, it was torture.

He hummed softly in response, but then said, "It might be the smell of laundry detergent on my clothes... My mom has always used this brand. She hasn't changed it in over a decade."

Jiang Xiao, however, said: "Impossible."

He could tell the smell wasn't detergent; it was distinctly body odor.

Jiang Xia couldn't describe that taste.

He always thought body fragrance was something only found in books, until later he realized that this pleasant scent was actually Ning Shu's body fragrance.

Just thinking about it.

Jiang Xiao's throat became a little dry, and his eyes dimmed slightly.

Women are fine, but even guys have body odor.

Because this secret was discovered.

Jiang Xiao treated Ning Shu like a precious treasure, guarding her from everyone's approach. He was afraid that others would discover this secret; a secret only he knew.

What could this be that heaven has bestowed upon him

Once Jiang Xia thought of this, he became even more determined that in the second half of his life, he and Ning Shu would not marry or have children.

What's good about girls

Her skin wasn't as fair as Ning Shu Bai's, and she didn't have a distinctive fragrance. She was simply beautiful, and Ning Shu's face alone was enough.

To marry again wouldn't be necessary, would it

Jiang Xiao had smelled his body before, but Ning Shu had never felt ashamed, or even her heart beating so fast.

He knew it was because of him.

Fearing that Jiang Xiao might notice something was amiss with him, Ning Shu could only suppress the feeling. After calming down for a while, he said, "I don't know, I have to go back now."

Jiang Xiao had no choice but to let him go.

But when he saw Ning Shu's thighs, he couldn't help but twitch his lips and then turned his face away, saying with a hint of pride: "Ning Ning, look, your thighs aren't as thick as my arms."

Ning Shu ignored him.

While Jiang Xiao's words might be a bit exaggerated, the size difference between them has always been an issue.

The other person is taller and bigger than him.

Ning Shu pursed her lips slightly, so when Jiang Xiao bullied him before, he had no ability to fight back. He could only vent his anger elsewhere.

Furthermore, those were just minor skirmishes.

If Jiang Xiao really got serious, Ning Shu was probably only able to act like a little chick, being bullied by the other party.

....

When Ning Shu got home, Wang Yuxiu had just returned from buying groceries. Seeing what he was wearing, she was a little surprised.

He didn't say anything.

But Ning Shu felt a little guilty and flustered under the other person's gaze. He involuntarily tightened his sleeves and then opened his mouth to explain: "I accidentally soiled my clothes just now, so I took a shower at Xiao's house."

After returning to the room.

Ning Shu just took her clothes off.

This clothes smells like Jiang Xiao, he just wearing it, he feels a little hot all over his body, kind of ashamed.

Ning Shu was a little dazed, staring at Jiang Xiao's clothes absentmindedly.

Jiang Xia must not know that his best friend who grew up with him likes him.

...and Ning Shu wouldn't let the other party know for now.

...

During the Chinese New Year, the two families had a reunion dinner together.

Every year during Chinese New Year, Jiang Xiao would always be the first to send Ning Shu a message, and this year was no exception.

At the dinner table.

Both families somehow started talking about Ning Shu and Jiang Xiao's future plans for their lives.

Their son is different from others.

When others were dating, Ning Shu and Jiang Xiao spent every day together, studying together too.

But they didn't think much of it, just assuming it was because they were close friends.

After all, the relationship between the two families has always been very good.

Father Jiang joked that he didn't know who would get married and have children first, so they might as well become godfathers to each other's children. That way, the children of both families could be like Jiang Xiaoning and Shu, having fun playmates from a young age.

When Ning Shu heard this, she couldn't help but be slightly taken aback.

He remembered the dream he had, in which Jiang Xiao asked him if he wanted to be the godfather of his child.

Just then.

Jiang Xia suddenly darkened his face and said in a low voice, “If you want to get married, you can get married yourselves. I'm not interested in marriage.”

"Jiao Xiao's mom said, "Whether you get married or not, Xiaoning, when you have a family and children in the future, he will be an envious lonely bachelor."

Ning Shu put down her chopsticks, just about to say something. She saw Jiang Xiao's face turned even uglier, pulling a long face and saying, "He doesn't want to either."

Now, not only was the Jiang family stunned, but the Ning family also looked over.

Mr. Jiang broke the tense silence: "Jiang Xiao, you can choose to be alone, but don't drag Xiaoning down with you."

Jiang Xiao, however, didn't take it to heart: "What's so good about getting married People these days get divorced easily. Who can guarantee that two people will be together for life Besides, men should prioritize their careers. Ningning and I have already decided to start a business together after graduation. What's the point of dating You're asking me to talk about love You'll be struck by lightning."

Wang Yuxi couldn't help but smile: "Actually, it's fine to talk about love later. Consider this issue after getting a job."

Jiang Xiao, however, wore a serious expression: "Aunt Wang, today's young people can't compare to you." He clicked his tongue and continued, "It's fast food love now. You break up and get back together in a blink of an eye, few are sincere. Ningning is so innocent, she'll definitely be deceived. Can you bear to see him being tricked"

Wang Yuxiu was stunned by what he said.

Jiang Xiao's mother immediately glared at him.

Jiang Xiao acted as if he hadn't heard: "But I'm different, Aunt Wang. I grew up with Ningning since we were little. I won't get married, and neither will he. We support each other, and you don't have to worry about us."

"Nonsense."

Mr. Jiang slapped the table. "Look at what you're saying! We won't force you to get married, but you can't force Xiaoning to marry you either. Who do you think you are His father His father is right here sitting!"

Mr. Ning fell silent for a moment.

Jiang Xiao glanced over: "Ningning, are you going to get married in the future"

Ning Shu found that all eyes were suddenly on him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. But when he heard Jiang Xiao say that he didn't want to get married, a sense of relief washed over him.

But he also knew... it didn't mean anything.

Ning Shu: "I...."

Jiang Xiao's eyes became dangerous, as if he would settle the score later if he didn't answer well.

Ning Shu sighed: "I don't have that idea right now."

"Just because there isn't anything now doesn't mean there won't be anything later." Jiang Father snorted, his face grim as he said to Jiang Xiao: "Before, we let you do whatever you wanted, but not everything can be said just like that."

"Little Ning is obedient, unlike you. If he doesn't get married and support each other, what will you do when you both get old You'll just be a pair of frail old arms and legs."

"Mind your own business, Xiao Ning's family is still here, it's not your turn to call the shots."

Wang Yuxiu quickly came out to smooth things over and said, “Actually, Xiao Xian has a point. Marriage is not something to rush into, it should be taken slow. Besides, nowadays young people get married easily, but they also divorce easily. As for what they're thinking, we should respect their decision, don't you think”

Jiang Xiao smirked, he knew Aunt Wang would definitely be on his side.

Then, he solemnly assured Wang Yuxiu in a low voice: "Aunt Wang, please rest assured. Even if I get old and can't walk anymore, I will definitely take good care of Ningning and make sure he is well-fed and clothed for life."

Wang Yuxiu was taken aback, inexplicably feeling a strange sensation, but she couldn't say what was strange.

"Xiao Xiao has good intentions, you guys shouldn't scold them. Young people today have different ideas than we do. Let's just talk about this later."

Jiang Xiao's lips curled into a smirk: "Aunt Wang, eat more."

Jiang's father glared at his son, wishing he could just kill him.

Ning Shu sat in her place, but she imagined that future.

...If Jiang Xiao never gets married, the two of them will just spend their whole lives like this...

His heart couldn't help but beat faster.

But Ning Shu also knew this was impossible.

Everything Jiang Xia is saying now is because he doesn't want to date.

Until he meets someone he likes later.
