The charming aura of the man continuously floated around Song Song, making her heart almost stop from the tension.
And now, with the man suddenly approaching her, she was even more unsure of how to respond, her two hanging hands could only clench powerlessly.
Xiao Jinghuai knew this little girl too well, aware that she was tense, so he didn’t try to scare her, instead he cupped her little head and pressed a kiss on her forehead, "Little thing, do well in the competition."
The simple seven words almost made Song Song’s heart burst.
This was his form of encouragement, it was almost as if she had been injected with a lot of energy.
"Mm, I know!!"
But encouragement is encouragement, why did he have to kiss her forehead too? It would make her misunderstand, wouldn’t it?
Song Song stared absentmindedly at the man’s departing back, sigh! She wondered why even his back looked particularly good to her. How could a back be so straight?
It was just a simple black suit, yet it inexplicably possessed a few more shades of abstinence when worn by him.
Shortly after Xiao Jinghuai left, Song Song also vacated the room.
Even though he had left, the room seemed to still carry his scent, staying even one more second made her start missing him.
So she hurriedly fled.
...
Song Song searched the villa multiple times before finally finding her room, and just as she entered the door and hadn’t even settled in, there came a knock, prompting her to rise and open the door.
Upon opening, she saw Zhou Yunxian standing outside with an exceptionally bright smile, "Hi! Little Fairy, so you’re staying in this room!"
"Uh."
Song Song hesitated a bit upon recalling someone’s words, her smile a bit awkward, "Mr. Zhou, how did you know I’m staying in this room?"
"I just saw you coming in." Zhou Yunxian squinted his eyes, smiling, "Little Fairy, can I come in and sit for a while?"
"No."
Song Song refused without a second thought.
She then softened her tone slightly, "I think it’s not very convenient, Mr. Zhou, sorry."
"Oh, that’s alright." It was the first time Zhou Yunxian was refused by the opposite sex, inevitably feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Does Little Fairy not seem to like me?"
"It’s not that." Song Song also didn’t know how to phrase it, "I, I’m not good at socializing, so sometimes I might seem a bit indifferent towards people."
"Mr. Zhou, don’t overthink it..."
"Really?" Zhou Yunxian suddenly regained some confidence, "Then we can take our time."
"Ah!"
"Oh, I mean we can slowly get to know each other... Little Fairy, don’t worry, I’m definitely a good person."
Song Song burst out laughing, "I know you’re a good person, you’re my savior!"
The girl’s pure and innocent smile made Zhou Yunxian irresistibly drawn, he’d never thought he’d be attracted by someone’s smile before.
"Well... Mr. Zhou, if there’s nothing else, then I’ll..."
"Oh, I have nothing for now, when the theme for the second round of PK comes out, let’s discuss how to tackle it!"
Song Song nodded politely, then closed the door.
Zhou Yunxian stood outside the door for a while before reluctantly leaving.
He thought, now wasn’t the right time to confess his feelings, looking at how Little Fairy seemed to have a rather indifferent attitude towards him, expressing his feelings now might make her dislike him.
Meanwhile, not far from Song Song’s room, someone was standing, capturing the scene of their conversation.
"Mengni, I’ll send you some stuff, could you post it online and have the trolls stir it up?"
"..."
In the photo, the young man and young girl stood very close, vaguely looking as if they were kissing.
Two days later, a post about "World’s Greatest Chef" contestant’s messy romantic affair on Weibo was reposted over half a million times overnight...
