Young Master Qin’s words, "It’s okay, I’m here," instantly made Lou Xi feel an immense sense of relief, but she still had to tightly clutch the corner of Qin Mobai’s shirt.
"Young Master Qin... I’m scared of the dark." Although admitting her fear of the dark was really embarrassing, if she didn’t admit it, her crying later would make her look even more pathetic, so it was better to confess her cowardice from the start.
"Such a grown-up, yet still afraid of the dark." Qin Mobai sneered coldly, but he hugged Lou Xi a bit tighter.
"Who says adults can’t be afraid of the dark? I was once locked in a small dark room, which caused indelible damage to my young spirit. So, don’t mock my fear of the dark!" Lou Xi declared righteously.
"Why were you locked in a small dark room?"
"Shouldn’t we be thinking about how to escape now? Young Master Qin, did you bring your phone?"
"The elevator has a signal blocker." Qin Mobai replied coldly, "I didn’t bring my phone either."
"I didn’t bring mine either!" Lou Xi had left her phone at Qin Mobai’s house just now, so now they didn’t even have anything for lighting, "What should we do, Young Master Qin? The elevator in your six-million-dollar house actually breaks down at such a crucial moment. You should complain to the property management and demand compensation for your mental distress!"
"I see that you’re not really afraid of the dark." Having the energy to say this much, does she really seem like a timid person?
Saying this, Qin Mobai was about to push Lou Xi away. Being hugged by this little girl really tested a person’s patience.
But just as he was about to push Lou Xi away, she clung to him stubbornly, worried that he would push her away. She quickly hooked her legs around him, hanging onto Qin Mobai like a koala bear.
Just like that night she got drunk, stumbled into the men’s restroom, blocking Qin Mobai inside, hugging him in the same way like a koala.
The difference is, back then Lou Xi was drunk; now, she’s sober.
"Lou Xi," Qin Mobai’s voice was hoarse, at a loss, unsure whether to grab her waist or support her legs, "Get down."
"No way, if I get down you’ll just push me away, and I’m really afraid of the dark," Lou Xi kept shaking her head, hugging Qin Mobai tightly, the fear leaving her no time to consider the vast differences in their status, waiting until the lights came on.
"Be good, I won’t push you away. But for now, get off me."
"Is it because I’m heavy?"
"No."
"Then you must be disgusted by me!"
How could this be related to disgust? Isn’t it just because her clinging made his heart race?
"Are you getting down or not?"
"No!"
The cramped space suddenly fell silent, Lou Xi didn’t know what Qin Mobai intended to do, but in the next second, it felt like her and Qin Mobai’s positions had switched!
"Qin—"
By the time Lou Xi realized, she found out she was being kissed! By! Qin! Mo! Bai!
