The attitude he showed all afternoon wasn’t because he wanted to leave?
“You stomped on all my arrogance and self-respect. You don’t even let me get a little emotional after that?”
As Jun Yexuan spoke, he pinched at her earlobes, “Your IQ is so high but your memory is so bad. Don’t you remember when I said that unless I die, there is no way I would let you slip away? I left this afternoon because I was afraid I would hurt you. I was losing control over my emotions.”
Mu Jinghang, who was standing by the stairs, gently touched his swollen cheeks. Son of a b1tch! You must hurt me when your emotions are out of control?
He swore to himself that he will never go practice boxing with his third brother ever again.
Qiao Qing was silent for a while before she responded with a heavy heart, “Jun Yexuan, aren’t you far too possessive? Are you only going to be satisfied if I never interact with any male friends? Am I not allowed to have any male animals within a 10km radius of me? If this is the way you treat those you like, then I can tell you now that I am not someone you can restrain.”
Jun Yexuan was now anxious, “You obviously know that Feng Heng was stalking you. Why would I allow you to spend any alone time with him? Plus, he obviously has ill intentions with you!”
“Then what about Luo Chen?” Qiao Qing said, “He’s my friend. It’s out of line for him to discuss math problems with me?”
Jun Yexuan was stifled. He rubbed his face further into her neck and with a pleasant tone, he said, “I was wrong.”
Qiao Qing, “...”
Jun Yexuan, “This is the first time I’ve ever liked someone. I never learned how to love. Can you teach me? You don’t need to accept me. But can you stop shoving me away time after time and say things just to hurt me? I may behave boisterously normally but I am not indestructible. My heart can hurt too.”
Qiao Qing, “I also don’t have any experience. I can’t be your teacher.”
Then, at a moment when he wasn’t paying full attention, she got out of his arms and left his embrace, “I’m tired. I’m going to sleep. You do whatever you want.”
Jun Yexuan heard her words and was immediately ecstatic.
He pulled her into a tight hug and then pecked her lips, “Good night.”
Qiao Qing aggressively retreated, glared at him, and walked back into her room speechlessly.
Jun Yexuan watched as the door closed. A smile expanded across his face.
Staring at how proud Jun Yexuan appeared, Mu Jinghang rolled his eyes. Don’t the single people here deserve human rights?
Why was it that when these two fight, he would be punished, but when they makeup, he’s asked to enjoy this mouthful of PDA? They have no conscience!
The next morning, He Wanqing watched Jun Yexuan and Qiao Qing walk down the stairs and sighed in relief. Immediately, happiness returned to her face.
When she saw Mu Jinghang come down with his pig-like swollen face, her mouth widened enough to put an egg in.
“This is... little Hang?”
Mu Jinghang grinned politely, “Auntie, good morning.”
He Wanqing dry chuckled, “What did you have to experience to look like this?”
Mu Jinghang gave Jun Yexuan a look of blame and explained to He Wanqing, “I experienced a young couple’s breakup and makeup.”
He Wanqing instantly understood what he meant. With much appreciation, she patted Mu Jinghang’s shoulder, “Child, your contribution will not go unnoticed!”
Mu Jinghang, “...??!!”
Over the next few days, the Qiao family had all their maids running in and out to help prepare for Qiao Qing and Qiao Nian’s coming of age party.
Every day, on the other hand, when Qiao Qing reads her medical books in her study, Jun Yexuan would be right beside her.
Today, Chen Ming went to the study room with an old zither. He said to Qiao Qing, “Miss, it’s been fixed.
Qiao Qing didn’t even raise her head, “Just put it there.”
Chen Ming replied, “Yes.”
Jun Yexuan gave the ancient zither a glance before he looked back at Qiao Qing, “You know how to play the zither too?”
Qiao Qing said, “It’s just a hobby.”
Jun Yexuan was intrigued, “How come I’ve never seen you play before?”
