Chapter 299
…
The more Mu Jiao thought about it, the more panicked she became, especially when she saw the person on the opposite wall, less than a meter away, with a dark, delicate face and eyes that were about to spit fire...
Mu Jiao subconsciously lowered her head in guilt, avoiding Huo Qi. Then the next second, a man's voice came from her ear:
"Jiaojiao, even if you don't want to accept my confession, you can't avoid me like this~"
There was a sense of dejection and sadness, as if he was extremely lost.
"No, no, Brother Qi, I'm sorry. I misunderstood before. I shouldn't have..." Mu Jiao didn't care about feeling guilty anymore. She quickly looked up at Huo Qi to explain and try to make amends.
"So now you know that I like you, not Xikai, right?"
"Yeah, I know, I know." Mu Jiao nodded quickly. She deeply realized that Huo Qi's orientation was positive.
"Now that you know my feelings, Jiaojiao, can you accept my confession?"
Mu Jiao: "I'll take it, ahem, no, I, Brother Qi, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding before, but I've always regarded you as a senior and a real brother... I don't have that kind of feeling towards you. So, or..." Forget it.
Mu Jiao had already made up her mind that after she finished college, she would move out of Chengtongxing Manor and live independently.
She has been relying on Brother Qi for the past few years, but this is not a long-term solution. After all, her life is her own. If she wants to live a good life and last a long time, she cannot rely too much on others, let alone a brother who is not related to her by blood.
But now, Huo Qi's sudden confession directly disrupted Mu Jiao's imagination of her future life.
Mu Jiao didn't need to think much, the first two words that came to her mind were: rejection.
On the one hand, it was because she had always regarded Huo Qi as a senior brother, but more importantly, she did not want to trouble or rely on Huo Qi anymore.
However, before Mu Jiao could finish her reluctant rejection, which she thought was tactful and not too hurtful, she was interrupted by Huo Qi's words.
"Jiaojiao, don't be so hasty to reject me now, okay? I know we haven't spent enough time together in the past few years, and you need time to adapt and think about it... I can wait, so give me a chance, okay?"
…
Mu Jiao sat at the head of the bed with her back straight. For a long while, until she heard the faint sound of running water from the bathroom, Mu Jiao seemed to lose her temper. She bent her body, grabbed the pillow at the head of the bed, held it in her arms, and beat it hard a few times.
Then she couldn't help but bury her head in the pillow and sighed in frustration. She didn't know what had possessed her just now. She was like a bewitched by her brother Shangqi's pair of phoenix eyes full of nervousness, expectation and other soft emotions. She didn't say the words of refusal, but nodded as if possessed by a ghost.
Then, Brother Qi happily went to wash up, but she felt a mixture of emotions in her heart, unable to sit still...
Mu Jiao's mind was in a mess. How did things develop like this? Mu Jiao was thinking about it when Huo Qi's voice came from the bathroom:
"Jiaojiao, can you help me get the towel from the space button? I just forgot to get it. What's the password for the space button? "
Is it really okay to tell her the space button code directly and be so defenseless towards her? Mu Jiao was stunned.
"Jiaojiao?" A voice came from the bathroom again.
Mu Jiao quickly stood up and said, "...Um, okay, Brother Qi, wait a moment."
