After Breaking Up, I Shared an Apartment With My Best Friend and Her Boyfriend (H) - Chapter 47: Physical Relationships Are Quite Easy

Chapter 47: Physical Relationships Are Quite Easy

Xu Yanqi summed it up.

Chen Qiao shook her head. “No.”

She looked up at Xu Yanqi, seeing his usual distant features, but his eyes were soft at that moment.

Chen Qiao said, “Xu Yanqi, actually, most people in this world don’t know what they truly like.”

Xu Yanqi listened clearly to her words. “And I’m one of those people.”

“Unlike you and Wen Sui.”

Xu Yanqi and Wen Sui were the kind who chased their career dreams, but Chen Qiao wasn’t. She earned money because she needed it. If she didn’t need money, she wouldn’t know what she liked.

Rather than not knowing what she liked, it was more that she didn’t care to like anything.

Xu Yanqi hadn’t expected her words to shake him so deeply, the shock reaching into his soul.

He chose to date Wen Sui because he thought they were alike, both striving for their careers.

They shared the same mindset.

But Chen Qiao’s words suddenly made things clear to him.

About twenty minutes later, the meal was ready. When Xu Yanqi brought two simple home-cooked dishes to the table and served rice in front of her, Chen Qiao couldn’t deny she was touched.

“Thank you.”

Chen Qiao raised her water bottle to toast him, thanking him for the meal.

Xu Yanqi sat down, poured himself a glass of water, and toasted her back.

But as he was about to drink, Chen Qiao raised her bottle again, clinking it with his. “Also, happy early two-year anniversary to you and Wen Sui.”

Xu Yanqi’s eyes narrowed. He held the glass, unsure whether to drink or not.

He watched her take a sip, set down the bottle, pick up chopsticks, and naturally take some food.

“I won’t stay at home these next two days, to give you and Wen Sui some space. I’ll also take this chance to visit my hometown.”

For some reason, Xu Yanqi felt uneasy hearing her words.

The two dishes satisfied Chen Qiao’s taste, but she knew clearly that Xu Yanqi belonged to Wen Sui. Their two-year relationship was solid.

Her physical encounters with Xu Yanqi were just sparks of hormones, not something that could ever turn into emotional sparks.

After all, between men and women, physical relationships were quite easy, but love was very hard.

They ate in silence, each lost in their own thoughts. For over half an hour, Wen Sui, who had stormed out, didn’t contact Xu Yanqi or Chen Qiao.

Likewise, Chen Qiao didn’t reach out to her, and neither did Xu Yanqi.

They both knew Wen Sui. When she was upset, no one could find her. They could only wait for her to show up on her own.

Every argument was like this, even when she got mad at Chen Qiao. She’d walk away without giving anyone face.

While Xu Yanqi cleaned up in the kitchen, Chen Qiao went to her room to touch up her makeup. As she walked to the entrance to grab her raincoat, Xu Yanqi finished in the kitchen, wiped his hands, and approached her.

“Chen Qiao.”

Xu Yanqi called her name.

Their eyes met. The man stood tall, his deep eyes struggling to hide a faint burning glow.

His throat moved up and down, but he hesitated, unable to say anything.
