Chapter Forty: The Little Thoughts of Unrequited Love



He walked to the top of the stairs and looked at the girl skipping along, feeling a little worried. "Do you want me to carry you?"

The girl was startled and quickly shook her head.

"No need, no need, I can manage on my own."

After saying that, she even sped up her pace as she went downstairs, as if she was afraid he would think she couldn't handle it and then have to come up and carry her.

The confused girl didn't know what to do, so she could only subconsciously keep her distance from him.

Seeing her determination, Xiao Ran simply stopped talking.

He raised an eyebrow. "Your package has arrived."

After descending the last flight of stairs, Yan Xici looked at him seriously and explained, "No, it's yours..."

She had just come downstairs, and was a little out of breath. Whether it was from the strenuous exercise or from feeling guilty, her face was flushed, as if she had applied a light layer of rouge, making her look extremely beautiful.

Upon hearing that it was his, Xiao Ran was taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Mine?"

Her name is clearly written on it.

Did she buy something for herself?

The guilty girl lowered her head and quickly walked to the white dining table. She looked like a thief and didn't dare to look up at him. Her gaze was even somewhat evasive and unnatural.

With her fair little hand, she forcefully pulled the yellow tape off the package and successfully opened it.

Girls are naturally good at opening packages, and using scissors is disrespectful to the package.

I took out the inner packaging, then peeled off the plastic wrap, and out came a polygonal blue gel pad.

The girl squeezed it with her little hands. Inside was a thick layer of gel, soft and thick to the touch, and cool. It wasn't icy, but a very comfortable coolness. She flipped it over and examined it carefully.

It looks to be of good quality, with no problems.

After confirming that there were no problems, she handed the butt cushion to Xiao Ran.

Slightly embarrassed, she said, "Um...this is for you."

Xiao Ran stared at the strange, quadrilateral-shaped object, completely bewildered. "What is this?"

"This is it..."

As she said this, the girl licked her lips, her face becoming even rosier, and her small, fair hands involuntarily clenched together, looking somewhat flustered.

It must be said that humans are truly amazing creatures.

The girl who wanted to carry and touch him yesterday is now so nervous after realizing she likes Xiao Ran that she can't even say the word "butt".

After all, that's a sensitive area.

Add to that a sensitive mindset, and that word becomes even more sensitive.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran was startled and subconsciously asked, "Are you alright?"

The girl tried to suppress her racing heartbeat and pretend nothing was wrong, but there was still a hint of embarrassment in her voice.

"Yeah, it's a cooling pad for electric scooter riders. Using this in the summer will keep your bottom from getting burned..."

If she had known it would be this difficult to send it out, she should have just written his name on it!

Then just say you don't know anything.

There's no need for this explanation anymore!

Xiao Ran was stunned for a long time. Looking at the girl's embarrassed look, he almost burst out laughing. So she burned her butt?

He forced a laugh and said, "Oh, so that's what it is."

To be honest, I really didn't know such a thing existed, and I've never searched for it.

After all, he always parked his electric scooter in a shady spot and rarely got his butt burned.

Nevertheless, Xiao Ran was still quite grateful to her.

It cannot be denied that she is indeed very concerned about herself.

So much so that she would try to make herself more comfortable even with such trivial things that she hadn't even noticed herself.

"Thank you." Xiao Ran said, shaking the car mat in his hand. "A special gift."

This gift is truly special, special enough to be remembered for a lifetime.

A butt cushion, tsk tsk.

Since he had nothing else to do at the moment, he decided to put the harness on his electric scooter right now.

"I'll go test it on my electric car right now."

After saying that, he turned around, opened the door, and walked out.

The girl blinked, her gaze falling on the spot where he had disappeared, her fair and pretty face displaying a somewhat complicated expression.

With such positive feedback, a girl would normally be extremely proud and would practically be strutting around like a madwoman!

But today, I felt not only no excitement, but also a little embarrassed.

As the saying goes, thieves are always feeling guilty.

And she was the one who secretly committed the theft.

......

Xiao Ran quickly went downstairs and put the mat on her electric scooter; it looked quite nice.

I have to commend Yan Xici here; she has excellent taste.

He looked at it with satisfaction before returning upstairs.

Hearing footsteps, the girl snapped out of her daze and turned around, hurriedly trying to return to her own space. However, before she could take two steps, she heard Xiao Ran's voice behind her.

"By the way, Xici, are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"

Xiao Ran asked as he walked toward the dining table.

Actually, he wasn't hungry at all right now.

However, considering that the girl had only eaten breakfast and hadn't had lunch yet, I was worried that she might be hungry, so I asked her anyway.

Upon hearing this, the girl shook her head; she had no appetite at the moment.
