After the rehearsal ended, most of the boys and girls in the class became her fans, and they all came to add her on WeChat.
He Xiao stood outside the crowd, arms crossed, watching Lin Yue, who was wearing armor and smiling brightly in the crowd.
I don't understand what's the point of being surrounded by such a large group of people, and isn't she heavy?
"Brother Xiao, does our sister have a boyfriend?" The boy in the prince's robe approached He Xiao, rubbing his hands together, his cheeks slightly flushed.
He Xiao: ?
The boy narrowed his eyes: "What business is it of yours whether she has a boyfriend or not?"
He thinks he's worthy of even dreaming about his aunt? Ha! Keep dreaming.
In his eyes, no one in the entire Taipei City was good enough for his aunt!
The boy's face flushed instantly when He Xiao stared at him with a dangerous gaze. He stammered and quickly waved his hands, "No, no, I was just asking for someone else, haha... How could I possibly have any feelings for your sister... Oh right, I remember our homeroom teacher was looking for me, I'm off, haha..."
Oh no, I forgot He Xiao's identity as a demon god. Will he hold a grudge against me?
The boy vanished in an instant, leaving me no time to even think about asking for his WeChat.
He Xiao's gaze remained fixed on the boy's figure until it disappeared from sight. Looking at the crowd that had not decreased but increased, his brows furrowed so deeply they could have trapped a fly.
He remained silent, pondering how to squeeze in and take the person away. The crowd began to disperse, and the girl's cheerful voice rang out.
"Let's all work together from now on! See you in class, bye-bye!"
Seeing this, He Xiao walked straight up and stood in front of Shen Linyue, blocking everyone's view. His cold gaze swept over everyone, and the scene fell silent.
The boy nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Shen Linyue and said in a low voice, "You seem quite happy? Why don't you continue? Hehe."
Shen Linyue blinked and tilted her head slightly: "Oh, then I'll add two more people on WeChat, so they can like my posts on Moments."
He Xiao: ...You added me as a friend just for this?
His lips twitched slightly, his eyes unreadable, and after a few seconds he stammered, "Let's go, I'll take you for milk tea."
Shen Linyue watched the boy's departing figure, her eyes filled with undisguised joy.
...
Nothing happened for most of the month, and the last day of classes before the school anniversary ended early.
On the way back, Shen Linyue glanced at Uncle Liu who was driving. She had been trying to find an opportunity to talk to Uncle Liu recently but hadn't had the chance. After dropping them off, Uncle Liu would drive away and wouldn't stay at the He family's house.
She glanced at the still-sunny sun outside the window and said to Uncle Liu, "Uncle Liu, let's go to Qiaoji Roast Duck. It's been so long since I've had it."
Qiaoji Roast Duck's shop is located opposite to He's. Uncle Liu didn't think much of it and turned around at the intersection ahead.
He Xiao, sitting next to her, looked puzzled.
"We're almost home, can't we go back and order takeout?"
Shen Linyue pursed her lips, looking somewhat melancholy: "Tomorrow is my first time performing on stage, and I'm a little nervous. Can't I even have a freshly baked one?"
He Xiao was speechless for a moment, then looked away and said, "Then eat! Eat as much as you want."
Shen Linyue smiled and said, "Ah Xiao is still the best to me. You can go buy it for me later. I don't want to get out of the car; it's a bit cold outside."
He Xiao: ...
“Don’t push your luck,” he warned.
Shen Linyue said with a wronged expression, "Our relationship has faded. Not only will he not show his abs to his aunt, but he also won't buy her roast duck."
He Xiao's ears turned bright red instantly, and he glared at her in embarrassment and anger: "Don't talk nonsense!"
Uncle Liu, who was driving, chuckled: "Miss Lin Yue and the young master have such a good relationship."
Shen Linyue immediately complained to Uncle Liu about He Xiao's hypocrisy.
Uncle Liu smiled and said, "The young master's personality is becoming more and more like the madam's."
These words silenced both of them, and Shen Linyue began to doubt herself.
Are He Xiao and her similar in personality? Not at all! She's not one to say one thing and mean another.
However, this also proves that Uncle Liu really knew about her future.
"I wonder if He Liyu will come back tomorrow." Shen Linyue changed the subject, and began to feel melancholy again.
He Liyu rarely stayed at home; she was always on business trips, traveling all over the world. She really felt that being a CEO was not easy.
Uncle Liu comforted him, "Yes, sir, you will keep your promises."
He Xiao, who had remained silent until now, let out a cold laugh and then fell silent, as did Uncle Liu.
Shen Linyue: ?
Is there something unknown about this?
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't come up with a solution in the car.
After parking the Bentley Continental in the open-air parking lot opposite the roast duck restaurant, Chen Linyue could smell the aroma of roast duck through the car window.
She stared at He Xiao with shining eyes, as if urging him to hurry up and go.
He Xiao twitched his lips, wanting to say something but ultimately remained silent, resignedly getting out of the car.
Through the car window, Shen Linyue sweetly reminded the boy, "Remember to look at the traffic lights when crossing the street, don't get distracted."
He Xiao, with a sour face: ...Does she think he's a three-year-old?
"Okay." The boy rolled his eyes and strode away.
As He Xiao's figure receded into the distance, the smile on Shen Linyue's face also disappeared. She looked at Uncle Liu, who was also preparing to get off the car, and called out to him.
"Uncle Liu, how long have you been working for the He family?"
Uncle Liu paused slightly as he opened the door, then smiled and said without much thought, "It's been twelve years, hasn't it? Ever since Mr. moved from the South City to the North City, I've been his driver. I should retire in a few more years."
Shen Linyue's heart skipped a beat; it seemed like only eight years had passed since her disappearance in the future.
"Wow, He Xiao grew up under your watchful eye!" Shen Linyue flattered.
