Yin Shaojie pretended not to hear anything as he looked elsewhere, but his handsome face was glowing unnaturally red. Luckily, the wretch was just waking up and was still drowsy-eyed, and she couldn’t see clearly.
Mu Xiaoxiao sat up and yawned as she stretched her back languidly. She wiped her mouth with her hand and realized that it was wet.
Did I drool in my sleep?
She wiped it off quickly with the back of her hand to remove the evidence lest Yin Shaojie mock her upon seeing it.
She was beginning to see clearer. She squinted curiously at Yin Shaojie and asked, “Jie, why are you sitting there? What are you doing?”
“…” Yin Shaojie’s usual intelligence seemed to be malfunctioning. He stuttered and came up with a random answer, “I… I’m meditating.”
Mu Xiaoxiao looked puzzled. “Meditating?”
‘Meditating’ doesn’t seem like a word that goes along with him, does it?
Yin Shaojie stood up and returned to his casual state, and he cast a glance at her and said, “It’s none of your business. Aren’t you sleepy? Go back into the bedroom and sleep.”
With that, he strode off into the study, and he slammed the door with a bang.
Bewildered, Mu Xiaoxiao batted her eyes and scratched her head as she watched him walked away.
What’s up with this guy?
She smacked her lips and felt that her mouth was dry. When she was about to leave the sofa to get a drink, the door to the study suddenly opened. Yin Shaojie looked emotionless as he walked toward her. With the phone on the coffee table in his sight, he quickened his steps.
“Lend me your phone for a while.” Before she could react, he quickly took it away and went back to the study.
“You have your own phone. Why do you need mine?” Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t understand him.
But she first wanted to quench her thirst, and she didn’t chase after the phone since she had no secrets on her phone anyway.
She walked over to the fridge and picked up a bottle of mineral water.
Yin Shaojie returned to the study with the phone. Feeling vexed, he quickly deleted Lu Yichen’s call and message records. He had actually forgotten about this step and only remembered it as he entered the study. Luckily, the wretch was still sluggish after just waking up and didn’t find anything suspicious about him.
After deleting the records, he brought out the phone and saw that Mu Xiaoxiao was drinking water.
“Jie, I’m hungry… There are only biscuits at home. Is there nothing else to eat?” She looked at him as she walked over. After drinking some water, her mouth looked like pudding, moist and tender.
Yin Shaojie instantly recalled the kiss from earlier, and he felt strangely thirsty.
“Let me drink some.” He reached out his hand and snatched the bottle from her hand like a tyrant.
Mu Xiaoxiao stared dejectedly at him, and she pouted her lips and said, “Go get one yourself!”
She licked her lips and still felt a little thirsty. Frustrated, she turned around and walked towards the fridge to pick up another bottle.
Yin Shaojie raised his head and drank her water.
Was it because she drank from the bottle? There was actually a slight sweetness, and it tasted different than usual.
After gulping down the remaining water, he opened the lid of the rubbish bin and threw the bottle into the bin.
When Mu Xiaoxiao saw him use his arms to wipe away the water on his mouth, she had a thought.
If he drank the same water I drank, isn’t that indirectly kissing?
With that thought, her gaze instinctively shifted to his slender lips. His lips had a nice shape and a sex appeal that was hard to describe. Could it also be the type that was great at kissing?
