Xiang Huai slowly lowered his head and the little kid’s face gradually magnified in front of him. In the end, when he was less than a centimeter away from her, the hand holding his shirt collar did not exert any force.
That’s true. How could he let a girl take the initiative? He would finish the last step!
He closed his eyes and was about to kiss her when Xue Xi’s cold voice sounded. “Do you still have that balloon?”
Xiang Huai: “?”
He raised an eyebrow and opened his eyes slightly, only to see the little kid’s face filled with anger.
Xiang Huai instantly understood.
The little kid finally understood what the balloon was!
He suddenly chuckled and slowly said, “Mhm. Do you still want to play together?”
Xue Xi’s face turned red. The next moment, she threw a punch at his face.
Xiang Huai did not move and only smiled.
Immediately, that punch stopped beside his cheek, and she gently touched it before retracting her hand. Xue Xi stood up and let go of his collar and snorted. “You… Don’t think that I can’t bear to hit you. I’m just afraid that my heart will ache if I hit you, so I stopped.”
Xiang Huai: “…”
He covered his mouth and chuckled. “Alright, so the little kid can’t bear to hit me.”
Xue Xi: “?”
She frowned. “I already said that I can’t hit you because I will die if I stop falling in love!”
Just now, looking at this face, she suddenly could not bear to do it.
Although she had long thought that if Xiang Huai dared to make her sleep with him, she would serve him with military boxing, she had forgotten that she could not hit him back then.
Forget it.
This person is a bad person.
Xue Xi thought this in embarrassment and glared at him before saying helplessly, “Let’s go eat.”
Xiang Huai pretended to be innocent and pitiful. “Sigh.”
Xue Xi turned to look at him. “What’s wrong?”
Xiang Huai had both hands in his pockets and was still as lazy as ever. His exquisite eyes were filled with gentleness and his sharp facial features seemed to be filled with disappointment. “It’s my birthday today and I thought that the little kid was just about to kiss me.”
Xue Xi: “…You wish.”
After saying that, she walked in front.
The two of them had lunch together. In the afternoon, they went reading in the library.
At around four in the afternoon, Xue Xi had finished her water. Xiang Huai took her cup and went to fetch her more.
When he returned from fetching the water, he saw a boy who had not returned home and was staying in the school. He’d approached Xue Xi and said with a cheeky smile, “Junior, are you alone?”
Xiang Huai’s eyes darkened. Just as he was about to step forward, Xue Xi said coldly, “Oh, I’m afraid half of who I’m with will scare you to death.”
“…”
Xiang Huai paused and suddenly smiled.
He realized that the little kid, who had been silent from the start, had slowly become someone with flesh and blood. Not only did she have emotions, but she also knew how to retort.
The corner of the senior’s lips twitched before he said, “Junior, I signed up for your project. Why did you kick me out? My professional skills are the best!”
Xue Xi looked up at him.
She knew this senior. When they were accepting applicants back then, Yu Da had kicked him out. That’s because this person’s character was not good. He gave up halfway through several projects when he realized that there was no profit to be had.
Yu Da said that he would rather not have such a person join them.
Xue Xi slowly replied, “You’re not suitable.”
The senior, on the other hand, sat on Xiang Huai’s chair like some dung. “How will you know if I’m unsuitable if you don’t let me try? I…”
Bang!
Xiang Huai, who had been far away just now, arrived behind him without anyone noticing. He pulled out his chair and made his butt fall to the ground.
This commotion attracted everyone’s attention.
The senior flew into a rage out of humiliation and stood up while cursing. “Xue Xi, I’m really giving you face here, but you don’t want it! Do you really think you’re so awesome that you can do it? Light Source Machine, do you even know what it is? You actually dare to develop this! I want to participate in your project because I find you pitiful and think you will definitely not be able to develop it. I’ll help you make up the numbers. Do you think I really care about that impossible project of yours?”
