Chapter 148: Little Kid, Hold On Tight

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Chao was really a coward. On the other hand, even though Jing Fei was a person who pretended to be the biggest scaredy-cat, he was actually more daring than anyone else. He would always say “I’m so scared” and then barge right in.

Moreover, why did his words carry a hint of mockery?

And was his progress slow?

He just felt that the little kid was too young!

Xiang Huai shot him another cold glance and ate a mouthful of food. “You might think it’s slow, but the little kid thinks I’m going too fast. So that’s that.”

Jing Fei: “?”

F*ck! He was so turned on by his boss!

Xiang Huai continued, “Anyway, you want to be fast, but can you get it up quickly?”

He slowly added, “You don’t even have anyone to go fast with.”

Jing Fei: “...”

He should not have asked about Xiang Huai’s relationship progress!

The corners of Jing Fei’s lips twitched for a while before he recovered. His life force was as strong as that of wild grass. Now it was as though such blows did not hurt him at all.

He continued, “Boss, is that really alright? You have breakfast with Sister Xi every day and talk for a while. But then you won’t see her for the whole day and don’t even talk through WeChat? You guys don’t seem to be in love at all.”

Xiang Huai made no answer to that and merely ordered coldly, “Give this painting back.”

Jing Fei pursed his lips. “Sigh. I traveled overnight last night to get that and now you want me to return it just as soon. Boss, you are too heartless! I wanted to have breakfast with your delicate wife!”

Despite saying this, he walked out.

After he left, Xiang Huai turned to look at the door. A couple in love walked past the provision store hand in hand. They were holding a single ice cream. One would take one bite, then the other would take one. It looked really pure.

He could not help but think that the situation between him and the little kid was indeed different. That was why she had always been unmoved.

Xiang Huai put down his chopsticks and suddenly picked up his phone to open a webpage. He typed: “What to do while dating...”

...

The next day was Monday. While Xue Xi was eating, she felt that something was amiss. Xiang Huai had been looking at her today and seemed eager to try doing something. It was a mystery what he was thinking.

After having breakfast and holding hands, she was just about to go to class when she realized that Xiang Huai had followed her. Moreover, he’d pushed a bicycle out in front of the entrance and now sat on it. He used his leg to balance himself, then pointed at the backseat. “Come up.”

Xue Xi looked at him in confusion.

Xiang Huai looked ahead. “I’ll send you to school.”

Xue Xi: “?”

She looked in the direction of the school. From here to the school gate, it should be less than a thousand meters away. Was there a need to send her off? And ride a bicycle?

While she was hesitating, Xiang Huai said in a low voice, “I’m a very stable biker.”

“...”

Xue Xi helplessly walked over. Upon sitting on the bicycle’s backseat, she felt still a little lost. At this moment, she heard Xiang Huai say, “Little kid, hold on tight.”

Hold on tight?

What for?

With this thought in her mind, the bicycle suddenly moved forward. As she was forced to lean backward, her hand subconsciously tugged at the corner of Xiang Huai’s shirt.

He was wearing a black hoodie today and his clothes were very loose. When she gripped it tightly, the shirt got stuck to the man’s body and she could see that the shoulder blades under his shirt were slightly protruding. He exuded a strong sense of youth.

He pedaled very quickly, and all Xue Xi felt was the wind blowing past her ears. Before she could even process it, she was already near the school gate.

The man slammed on the brakes and the tires creaked. However, due to inertia, Xue Xi moved forward and fell on his back. She instinctively hugged his waist to maintain her balance.

Xiang Huai lowered his head and looked at her hand. The corners of his lips curled up. His waist was straight as he felt the girl hugging him from behind... At this moment, he suddenly felt that this was such a peaceful time and he wanted it to freeze.

Xue Xi paused.

Only after she had stabilized her body did she realize that the man’s clothes had the smell of fresh detergent. It actually smelled good.

Moreover, the man’s waist was really a little slim. Through the clothes, she could feel how firm it was with her palms. It was indeed muscular.

Er... What was she thinking?

That burning sensation ran to her face again. She hurriedly jumped off the bicycle and ran to the school without even saying goodbye.

As she ran, she mumbled, “Encouraging Learning from Xunzi. The gentleman says: ‘Learning should never cease. Blue dye extracted from indigo plants is bluer than the plant itself; ice comes from water but is colder than water ever is...’”

She kept mumbling to herself, but for some unknown reason, the cold and fair waistline that she had seen a long time ago appeared in her mind...

Her face heated up even more.

“...A piece of wood as straight as a plumb line may be bent into a circle as true as any drawn with a compass and, even after the wood has dried, it will not straighten out again. The bending process has made it that way....”

She hurriedly raised her voice, wanting to stop her thoughts from going astray.

After entering the classroom, she sat in her seat.

The first period was Chinese. The language teacher entered the classroom early and stood on the podium. “Why are you so noisy? You only know how to chat every day!”

The students retorted, “Teacher, class has not started yet!”

The language teacher chided, “Class has not started yet, but I happen to have something to say. I saw Xue Xi on the way here, and even though she already has a guaranteed spot in Huaxia University, she’s not arrogant nor impatient. She’s still making use of her time to memorize ‘Encouraging Learning.’ All of you should learn from her.”

Xue Xi: “...”

This was truly a beautiful misunderstanding.

Her cheeks were hot and she lowered her head. It was only after two periods had passed that the heat on her face subsided. At this moment, she realized that the chatterbox in front of her was a little off.

During the last two periods, she had been keeping her head lowered, and it was not clear what she was doing. She seemed to be on the phone and sounded very angry.

Qin Shuang was indeed very angry.

Logically speaking, the live-stream platform should have given her tips and dividends yesterday. She had received about eight to nine thousand yuan from the live-stream last month, which was an amount that could solve her pressing problem.

However, after she was banned on the live-stream platform, her remuneration was also frozen. She called the customer service, and the customer service’s attitude was very official. “Your live-stream has been sealed because of its bad influence, so the remuneration can’t be settled for the time being, until you can prove that you didn’t put on a fake show back then.”

Qin Shuang was really infuriated. She had been explaining to them what happened for the past few days, but now, she was actually bullying others?

She roared, “You guys are too much! If you don’t give me any remuneration, I’ll expose you on Weibo!”

The customer service: “Then I’ll send you a lawyer’s letter.”

“...”

Qin Shuang hung up and was sulking the whole day. When school ended, she was still sprawled on the table with a listless expression. At this moment, the table was suddenly knocked on.

She looked up and saw Xue Xi standing beside her with her bag. “Let’s go.”

Qin Shuang paused. “Where are we going?”

“Your house.” Xue Xi’s expression was calm and aloof. “To prove that you didn’t lie or put on a show.”
