Chapter 32 Voting Results

Xiao Xuanjin had never been so anxious as he was now.

This didn't seem to be the purpose of his coming here, but now he was led astray by her again.

He seemed to be always being led by her.

She always has the ability to put herself in a particularly pitiful and innocent position.

The night is very quiet and the street lights are very warm.

But the accusation in her eyes was too obvious, deafening and bombarding every nerve in his body.

"Su Mi..."

He didn't know what he was thinking. In order not to see her expression, he pressed her head and pushed her into his arms.

The moment Su Mi leaned on his shoulder, he was dumbfounded.

Even the system stammered, "Host... the fluctuations are very strong."

Su Mi didn't care to think too much. All she could feel was his breath enveloping her, the warmth and heat of the sun.

The jacket he was wearing was pressed against her cheek.

At this moment, she didn't know what to say. In such an atmosphere, she was not sure what to say so as not to ruin the mood.

She could only feel Xiao Xuanjin's palm occasionally stroking the back of her head.

Like the caress between lovers.

It was as if all the unspoken words were contained in it, and the unspeakable apology turned into these caresses again and again.

Su Mi's body was frozen, and he thought it would last for a long time.

I heard his voice coming from behind my head, his tone was full of subtle temptation, "Who was that person today?"

Su Mi reacted for a moment and thought of Gu Mucheng.

She answered honestly, "My fellow countryman."

"Lotus Creek?"

I didn't expect that he still remembered what I had said about his hometown.

"No, I lived in Jiangcheng for a period of time when I was a child, and I met him then."

Xiao Xuanjin didn't ask any more questions. He let her go, then lowered his eyes and stared at her, not allowing her to pause for a moment. "Do you like him?"

"I just treat him as a brother." Su Mi answered truthfully.

Thinking that he cares about me and Gu Mucheng, does it mean that he cares about me?

That's why I asked this suddenly.

Liao Qian said he was unhappy today, and it seems her guess was right.

Xiao Xuanjin really started to be moved.

Thinking of this possibility, Su Mi couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.

It was like a ray of light suddenly appeared in the dark and depressing black hole.

"You know who I like, I've said it many times."

Su Mi was in a good mood and explained a little more.

After listening to this, although Xiao Xuanjin's expression did not change, the slight upward curve of his mouth still revealed his emotions.

But after seeing the red bracelet on her wrist, his interest faded again.

He grabbed her arm and swung the rope in front of her eyes, "How ugly."

I've been wearing it for so long, but he hasn't paid any attention to it.

Seeing him suddenly notice the bracelet, Su Mi panicked and quickly covered it, "You are not going to deprive me of my preference, are you?"

Her words somehow irritated him, and he suddenly relaxed.

"Then wear it."

Su Mi put down his arm, but felt that he was not as enthusiastic as before.

Before she could say anything else, he had already ordered her to go back. "Go back. It's late."

Su Mi thought for a moment, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Then can you take me back to the dormitory?"

At least the two of them hugged each other today, and it was Xiao Xuanjin who took the initiative. This was a big progress for her.

She has to strike while the iron is hot.

But Xiao Xuanjin didn't give her this chance, "I have something else to do."

"oh."

Su Mi could only go back by himself.

I kept comforting myself in my heart, thinking that I had made progress anyway, so there was no need to rush, and there would be opportunities in the future.

Before going to bed at night, Su Mi stared at the chat interface in WeChat, hesitating whether to send something.

He said something was wrong, but no one knew what it was.

I don't know if I'm done yet.

Su Mi thought about it and sent it out [Have you arrived at the dormitory? ]

After sending the message, she waited for a reply.

I didn't wait long before I came back. "No, I'm not going back today."

It turned out that he was outside.

Su Mi typed a line on the screen: "Will you come to school tomorrow?"

After waiting for a long time, he finally replied [Want to see me? ]

Su Mi's cheeks felt hot. It was just words, but why did she feel so hot reading them?

【I'm just asking.】

[Okay, I understand.]

What does this mean? Is it coming or not? I think it is coming.

The next day, Su Mi was reading in the library when he saw Gu Mucheng coming in from outside.

He also saw her and walked over, "Qingqing, you are here too."

"Um."

Gu Muqing sat down next to her and said, "You seem to be in a good mood today."

Su Mi thought, maybe a little bit, after all, there was finally hope for the future.

"It's OK. How about you?"

"Same old."

The library was quiet and both of them tried to speak as quietly as possible.

For fear of disturbing others, the two of them finally sat there quietly, reading their own books.

Suddenly, Su Mi heard a few girls talking in a low voice behind her.

"The results of the campus beauty contest are out, Gong Yoon-ah lost miserably."

"Yes, Su Mi has a lot of extra tickets."

"I never thought that Gong Yoon-ah would be so mad that she would die. Not only was her man stolen, but her title was also stolen."

"But didn't I hear before that Mr. Xiao has dumped Su Mi?"

"How would we know? Who knows whether it's true or not?"

Su Mi heard it, but he never expected that he would end up eating the melon himself.

Gu Muqing, who was standing next to him, seemed to find such discussions boring and said with a smile, "Our Qingqing is a celebrity wherever she goes."

"Aren't you curious about what they said?"

Su Mi thought he would ask a few questions.

Gu Muqing shook his head and said, "I'm not at the point where I need to learn about you from other people."

Su Mi was very grateful for his unconditional trust.

But when they came out of the library, Su Mi still said a few more words, "Brother Mu Qing, I'm pursuing Xiao Xuanjin."

Gu Muqing was not surprised at all. "I know."

"You know?"

"Qingqing, I'm sorry. After I got back, I learned about your recent situation in private and found out about your relationship with him."

After that, Gu Muqing added considerately, "But, I asked you, and you said you didn't like him."

Su Mi knew that if he just went to the forum, he would know everything about his relationship with Xiao Xuanjin.

However, Gu Mucheng's last words reminded her that she had to think of a better excuse. Otherwise, she had clearly said that she didn't like Xiao Xuanjin, but now she was pursuing him. Isn't that contradictory?

"You know me well. I care about my reputation. Plus, my current situation is tough. I have to find someone to back me up."

This is the explanation given by Su Mi.

I thought Gu Mucheng would ask more questions, but I didn't expect him to believe it so directly.

"Well, I understand. You are no longer the daughter of the richest man. Without that protective umbrella, you still have to be more careful when you are outside."

Gu Mucheng was always so considerate that Su Mi felt that he would never make things difficult for her.

"Thank you." Su Mi thanked sincerely.

"I will accomplish whatever you want me to do."

These are the words Gu Mucheng said before he left.
