Chapter 31: To step on Xun Sheng's heart and rub it hard

"Thank you. I like it very much. It's very beautiful. But I went to Dongyang City a few days ago and didn't check my phone much. Plus, my phone is broken, so I'm using my brother's old phone now, so I didn't reply to you."

As soon as this message was sent, Xia Cheng's phone vibrated.

Lin Minghe actually replied to the message at this time. She thought that athletes had a very standard schedule.

"It's okay. Is your phone broken? I have a lot of new phones from brands here. I'll send you one!"

Lin Minghe had actually fallen asleep. He had just won the championship, and his coach treated him as a hot commodity and managed him even more strictly. The only way he could wake up now was by the special ringtone for Xia Cheng's new message - a series of kitten meows.

"No need! Dad bought me a new phone, but he hasn't had time to replace it yet. Next time you text me, this won't happen again."

"I lost your bracelet, so you must be a little unhappy. After all, the new one is not the same as the old one. I have a few days off, so why not treat you to a meal?"

Before Xia Cheng could respond, the other party sent an emoticon of a white Samoyed lying in the palm of its owner's hand.

Xia Cheng looked at the emoticon and felt familiar with it. Without hesitation, she agreed.

The two of them didn't chat for a while and then ended the topic.

Xia Cheng lay on her side on the bed, tossing and turning.

So when Xun Mo wore her ruby ​​bracelet that day, was it intentional or a misunderstanding?

That was a gift from Lin Minghe. Xia Cheng had no reason to give it to Xun Mo, but she didn't know how to get it back.

Mom and Dad definitely don't care about these things, and neither does Xun Mo. Because she can get everything, she mostly scoffs at other people's intentions and only values ​​things that are useful to her.

The meaning behind the ruby ​​bracelet is who Lin Minghe likes.

There was no reason for Xia Cheng to give in anymore. She felt that she shouldn't rest. She should rush into Xun Mo's room and beat her up. She should ask her if it was Xun Mo who did something to make her fall. Then she should snatch the bracelet and smash it hard on her face. It would be best if she could break her nose. Who told her to always hold her head so high, with the tip of her nose almost pointing to the sky!

However, all this requires evidence.

Xia Cheng already had an idea of ​​how to confirm it.

She closed her eyes and wanted to sleep, but she was so upset that she couldn't fall asleep. She simply opened her phone again... Forget it, she might as well watch some short videos.

The next day, Xia Cheng asked Chen Kelin to accompany her to buy a few sets of clothes for work. The white shirt, hip skirt and high heels were indeed uncomfortable to wear, but with Xun Sheng in the company, she had to wear high heels every day no matter how uncomfortable she was, and rub Xun Sheng's heart hard.

When she returned home in the evening, Xia Cheng unexpectedly saw her brother who had not been home for a long time. He was sitting there, his posture straight, his profile clear, his nose high, and his peach blossom eyes. However, when he looked at her, he was so indifferent, without revealing any emotion.

"Brother, where are mom and dad? Why are you alone in the living room?"

"They went back to their room to rest."

"So you were waiting for me on purpose?"

"No, I just came back and sat down to rest for a while."

"What are you looking at?" Xia Cheng put down the packaging bag and leaned over to take a look. There was a stack of women's photos neatly placed on Xun Sheng's legs.

"It seems that mom... really wants to have a grandson." Xia Cheng sneered in her heart. Her parents were really generous and willing to leave their property to outsiders who were not related by blood.

She looked down at Xun Sheng and noticed a small mole on his nose, which was particularly eye-catching on his tall nose and also had a hint of temptation. She unconsciously reached out her hand, but was startled by his sudden voice.

"Sit down, I'll tell you about tomorrow's work arrangements."

Xia Cheng sat next to Xun Sheng with her bag, her arms leaning against him.

Xun Sheng was sitting in the corner and had no way to avoid it, so he turned his head and drove him away uncomfortably.

"The sofa at home is very big."

"I know, I looked at the photos."

Xia Cheng poked Xun Sheng's knee, ran her fingertips across his suit pants, and pressed hard on his legs around the photo as if she was doing the mole on his nose.

Xun Sheng couldn't get used to such contact. He felt a little uncomfortable. This kind of teasing touch always made him think too much. When he stood up to avoid it, the photos fell to the ground, just like his thoughts, floating down to Xia Cheng's feet.

She was wearing sandals today. Because she was thin, the veins on the instep of her feet were very obvious, and her toes were squeezed together, like a lotus root just peeled and placed in a bowl, crowded together with a bit of the pinkness of a lotus.

Xun Sheng looked at it a few more times, and then felt disgusted by his own behavior.

What's wrong with a brother staring at his sister's feet?

Xia Cheng didn't notice where his gaze rested, and she bent down to pick it up. The loose neckline dropped, revealing the pure white lace underwear inside. Between the lace, there were ravines.

"How can you throw a girl's photo on the ground? That's so rude, brother."

“…”

You should have seen it, right? Xia Cheng looked up expectantly. She really wanted to see the reaction of this prudish guy.

But suddenly, everything went dark in front of her eyes, and a large suit jacket fell from the sky, covering her entire upper body and head tightly, leaving only her restless feet exposed.

"What's wrong, brother?" Xia Cheng asked knowingly.

"You're coming into the company tomorrow. Even though it's on my way, I still want to ask if you want to come with me. Or do you want to keep a low profile? Think about it and give me your answer tomorrow morning. Also, I'll give you my secretary's WeChat. After adding him, you can work with him in the secretarial department. After you join the company, work hard."

After saying this, Xun Sheng's voice disappeared. Xia Cheng lifted a corner of her clothes and looked outside, but the tall figure was gone.

She ripped the clothes off her head and threw them on the sofa. When she was wrapped in the coat, she was filled with the ebony smell of Xun Sheng, which penetrated her nose and made her feel uncomfortable. Her slippers stepped on the hanging sleeves of the coat, pretending not to see the footprints left on it.

Xia Cheng didn't know whether Xun Sheng had seen her previous deliberate behavior, but she was sure that Xun Sheng had seen it this time.

Why did he react so strongly and cover her with his coat?

Actually, I still care.

Xia Cheng guessed so and returned to her room. When she passed by Xun Sheng's door, she glanced inside. The door was closed tightly, and she didn't know if his heart was also closed tightly.

On July 1st, in order to welcome her first day of internship, Xia Cheng specially put on new clothes that had just been dried, applied gardenia-scented hair oil to the ends of her hair, and matched her pink lotus skirt with a white shirt with a lace collar and white Mary Jane leather shoes.

It looks like a lotus just picked from the river, soaked in river water, fresh and beautiful. When the wind blows, the petals sway like a skirt, without a speck of mud.

Xia Cheng went down to the platform between the second and third floors and saw Xun Mo also walking out of the room. She was wearing pajamas. It was obvious that it was summer vacation and she was called down for dinner.

She walked lightly, on tiptoe, to prevent her high heels from hitting the carpet, and approached Xun Mo silently.

This was the best time for her to verify her idea. She was getting closer and closer to Xun Mo, but when she got closer, she deliberately made a little noise.

Xun Mo turned around and saw that it was her, and immediately became alert.

"What are you doing behind my back!"

Xia Cheng pressed her arms behind Xun Mo's back and grabbed her clothes tightly. Xun Mo took two steps back and seeing that she couldn't pull them off, she began to push Xia Cheng's chest.

"Let me go, what are you doing! Are you trying to push me down like this?"

Xia Cheng didn't say anything, just looked at her quietly. He pinched her soft cheek with his other hand and rubbed her face heavily with the calluses on his palms that had formed from years of doing rough work.

"Let go! Let me go!" Xun Mo became excited. They both stood on the steps, and her other hand, which was frightened, held the wooden escalator.

Hearing the footsteps of others behind him, Xia Cheng slapped Xun Mo lightly on the face, then slowly let her go, showing the red marks on the palm of his hand.

"Why are you so nervous? I just saw a mosquito on your face."
