She was temporarily confused by his attitude and began to doubt herself.

Xu Yanfeng stopped on the walking platform, turned sideways, looked down at Xia Xi, who was two steps lower than him, and said, "No." Whether she believed it or not, he did not deliberately keep her hanging.

"Then why don't you agree to be my boyfriend, but you don't deny that you have feelings for me." Xia Xi tilted her head back, her nails digging into the wooden stair railing, leaving a few shallow scratches, "Why are you so mean?"

Xu Yanfeng had no way to explain to her.

Xia Xi stared at him for a few seconds, not expecting him to give her an answer at this moment. She ran past him and upstairs, leaving him behind.

When Xu Yanfeng walked into the study room, Xia Xi had already laid down on the table for a nap, with his coat covering his back and the unfinished bottle of Wangzai milk on the corner of the table, with the baby reflected in it smiling with its mouth wide open.

As if mocking him as a coward.

At 12:40, there were not many people in the study room. Most of them had gone out to eat. Among the few people who stayed, some, like Xia Xi, were sleeping on the table, while others were watching videos with headphones on.

Xu Yanfeng moved slowly, sat down on the chair, opened his laptop, but did nothing but stared at the screen in a daze.

Not long after, the sound of even breathing came from the side, and Xu Yanfeng's gaze moved over so naturally. Xia Xi put her arms on the table, forming a safe area, and buried her head in it, revealing only half of her face. Her hair hung casually on her face, and the ends of her hair poked at the corners of her mouth, and even a strand of hair was held by her lips.

Isn’t this uncomfortable?

He couldn't help but reach out his hand, pick up the strand of hair with his fingertips, and tuck it into her ear.

By the time he realized what was happening, he had already finished the action. He stared blankly at his hands, unable to believe that he had actually done such a thing.

Xu Yanfeng retracted his hand as if he was guilty and looked at Xia Xi. She was sleeping soundly and showed no signs of waking up, which invisibly fueled the impulse and desire in his heart.

He leaned down slowly and kissed the corner of her lips.

Prove that you are not a coward.
