Xia Che's heart was not as helpless as he appeared at the moment. He had already prepared for Chu Yuying's request.

Xia Che knew Chu Yuying's family background well, and he also felt great sympathy for this girl with a tragic past.

In a sense, I am the same kind of person as Chu Yuying.

They are all people who do not have biological parents and are disliked by their relatives.

They were in similar situations, so Xia Che felt even more sorry for Chu Yuying.

As soon as Xia Che heard that it was Chu Yuying's birthday, he was already prepared to spend a lot of money. Anyway, if he ran out of money, he could still live off women, so he wouldn't starve.

"Hurry up, hurry up! I've already decided where to go. Hehe, just follow me, you little blondie."

Chu Yuying grabbed Xia Che's hand and excitedly pulled him forward.

Xia Che was taken aback. His fingertips inadvertently brushed against the girl's fingers, feeling the warmth in her palm. A sudden flutter welled up in his heart, an itch that felt like a foxtail grass tickling him. Then, a simultaneous itch came from his throat. He wanted to cough, but he held it in.

Startled by this sudden pause, Xia Che's face flushed slightly, and his expression became strange.

Could it be that the spicy snacks I ate this afternoon had chili residue, and I choked on them?

Xia Che thought to himself, but fortunately Chu Yuying was walking ahead and didn't seem to notice.

"Phew...that little brat."

Xia Che shook his head, feeling the warmth of his fingertips. He didn't have any particular thoughts about Chu Yuying's bold act of taking his hand.

He observed Chu Yuying for a long time, unsure whether her gesture of holding his hand was intentional or an unintentional act of being too happy.

It shouldn't have been intentional, right?

How could a little devil have such thoughts?

She probably doesn't even know what ambiguity is, right?

Thinking of this, Xia Che felt much more at ease and let Chu Yuying hold his hand.

Anyway, he didn't lose anything, so he just treated himself like a blind man with a guide dog and that was it...

"He...didn't resist."

Chu Yuying secretly glanced back and keenly noticed the faint blush on Xia Che's face that was about to disappear. Her hand involuntarily shrank slightly.

Oh my god!

Her red eyes were wide open.

This blond-haired guy with skin thicker than Bo Gang's belly, actually has a shy day?

Surely you wouldn't be shy with everyone, right?

Given that blond guy's sleazy and despicable personality, even if the world were to end, he'd probably strip naked and lie on the rooftop, watching the world crumble and cursing, "Damn, that's exciting!"

—Can someone like that really be shy?

Then, a thought suddenly popped into her mind. Chu Yuying pursed her lips, feeling smug about this sudden idea: "So he really does like me, doesn't he?"

snort……

She said it herself.

How could I not be tempted by spending every day with this lovely and beautiful woman?

Yes, he really does like me.

He likes me!

Chu Yuying didn't know what she was happy about, but she couldn't control her joy, and the smile on her lips was impossible to suppress.

She hummed a song and pulled Xia Che toward the place she had wanted to go to for a long time.

Neither of them noticed that behind them, a pair of beautiful, somewhat surprised eyes had taken in the entire scene.

It is a deep and silent mind.

"..."

Shen Yanxin, carrying her schoolbag, had just stepped out of the school gate and was planning to wait for Mu Yingying, who was still cleaning the classroom. However, she bumped into Xia Che as soon as she left the school gate. Surprised, she wanted to go up and say hello, but Chu Yuying beat her to it.

She had been deceiving herself, thinking that the two were just friends, and now that thought made Shen Yanxin feel a stinging pain in her face.

The intimate behavior between these two doesn't seem like it's okay, does it?

Shen Yanxin bit her lip, her hands unconsciously clenching. After thinking for a moment, she took out her phone and quickly sent a text message to Mu Yingying: "Something came up, I have to go now, sorry."

Afterwards, Shen Yanxin put her phone away and quickly chased after Xia Che and the other person in the direction they had left.

She wanted to see for herself whether there was anything going on between the two of them.

If they really are a couple...

Shen Yanxin suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart.

no!

"Please, please, it can't be a couple... I'm begging you."

Shen Yanxin suddenly felt a fog rising before her eyes, hazy and indistinct, and the surrounding light flickered with a blinding light.

Please, please... don't think it's what you're thinking.

...

As it turns out, when it comes to shopping, females have inexhaustible energy.

Xia Che shakily carried a stack of bags, his legs aching terribly, feeling like he was going to die.

damn it……

Didn't I promise I wouldn't stay out for too long?!

Why do we have to keep shopping after almost two hours?

It's almost dark!

Xia Che inwardly groaned. He could endure Su Miaorou's hellish training, no matter how intense it was, but this ordinary shopping trip was already pushing him to his limit.

If someone were to say something like that, who would believe it?

Who knew that just shopping could be so tiring?

and……

Xia Che's gaze fell on the bag he was holding in front of him, and he couldn't bear to look at it.

Being tired is a minor issue.

Men, when they feel tired, they just need to take a break.

After recovering, he was just as energetic and vigorous as ever.

But shopping with Chu Yuying not only drains your energy, but also your money...
