☆, Chapter 44
It happened to be the May Day holiday at that time, and after it ended I could still spend two days in City B to relax.
Xi Mo thought this was a good idea, and Chen Nianyu thought so too, he kept counting the days, and it was only a month away from May.
Chen Nianyu attached great importance to the competition that Xiu Yangui didn't care about. He dragged Xiu Yangui to the Internet cafe more frequently. He had met several netizens in the same city before. They originally wanted to participate in the competition in his city, but they didn't make it. Now he can also invite them to participate in the competition in City B.
After asking around, there was no suitable candidate, so I had to find two more.
Chen Nianyu was scratching his head over there, and Xiu Yangui was looking at his phone with a gloomy expression. It was a message from Qin Rui.
[Flathead: Xi Ruoling spoke to Xi Mo alone again.]
【xiuyG: That kid is too restless.】
【xiuyG: Are you eavesdropping? 】
[Flathead: Of course.]
【xiuyG: That’s great.】
Qin Rui and Xi Mo also participated in the English competition together this time, as well as Xi Ruoling. After all, he grew up abroad and is very good at English.
Now Qin Rui has become his spy, specifically keeping an eye on Xi Ruoling for him, for fear that Xi Ruoling will have some inappropriate thoughts.
Qin Rui is also very responsible. He is unstoppable in protecting his CP and is almost becoming a professional spy.
In fact, Xi Ruoling rarely talked to Xi Mo alone, so Qin Rui was exaggerating.
However, there was a reason why Xiu Yangui was so wary of Xi Ruoling. One day after school started, Xi Ruoling confessed his feelings to Xi Mo. Although Xiu Yangui didn't know about this, it didn't prevent him from being highly alert to Xi Ruoling.
When Xi Mo saw Xi Ruoling again and was alone with him, she did not feel uncomfortable. She still showed a gentle and calm expression, and there was not a trace of impurities in her clear and bright eyes.
"I was worried that you wouldn't participate in the competition because of my confession. After all, the only competition I can participate in is the English competition."
Xi Ruoling smiled as usual, and Xi Mo also smiled at him, "No, one thing at a time."
"Indeed, she is worthy of being Xi Mo."
Xi Ruoling admired Xi Mo very much. If he were to ask when he started to like Xi Mo, it was probably last semester. He was surprised to find that Xi Mo didn't recognize him. They had clearly met before. Although he was still young when they met and might not remember it clearly, it was impossible for him to have no impression at all.
While feeling strange, I also paid more attention to Xi Mo, and discovered that under Xi Mo's quiet and gentle appearance, there was a calm and strong soul.
Every time I see her, she is calm and indifferent, gentle and polite to everyone. However, under her seemingly easy-going and friendly, noble and elegant appearance, she has a heart that keeps strangers away, as if there is a barrier between her and everyone.
A layer of transparent, invisible glass separates her from outsiders.
She is kind, yet tinged with animal cruelty. She cares only for the people she loves, oblivious to all other external things, even cold-blooded and indifferent. When Yang Tao's words snarled Xiu Yangui, she calmly appeared and took Xiu Yangui away, unconcerned about Yang Tao's life or death, only concerned with Xiu Yangui's injuries.
She has the compassion and sympathy of a superior, as well as a strong sense of purpose. She will change herself in order to achieve her goals, and she will persevere even in the face of difficulties.
Because she wants to, she dares.
She is noble, proud, pure, straightforward, self-centered, free-spirited, and polite. All of these make up the individual Xi Mo.
The more he learned, the deeper he fell in love with her.
He liked her as a person and her family background. If the Xi family and the Xi family could marry, it would be a win-win result for both families. He would no longer have to deal with the wolves and tigers of the Xi family alone, and his mother would not have to monitor him every day. He could take a breath and live more like a teenager.
But this is impossible. Xi Mo doesn't like him, and he also knows that Xi Yicheng and Ruan Wenwen are definitely not the kind of parents who would force or sell their daughter for the sake of career prosperity.
They worked hard so that Xi Mo could live a free and carefree life and be a princess living in a castle forever.
Look, who wouldn't like Xi Mo? She's good-looking, has good grades, has parents who love her, and comes from a wealthy family. If you're with her, you don't have to struggle for the rest of your life. Being with her is a blessing from your past life.
It's just that he and she are not destined to be together.
Xi Ruoling simply had a few words with Xi Mo, just to make sure that Xi Mo did not have any grudges against him because of his confession. He was still sober and not blinded by emotions. Love was not the only thing for him. If they could not be lovers, being friends would be fine.
Qin Rui told Xiu Yangui everything he heard. Xiu Yangui clutched his phone, about to explode with anger. This Xi Ruoling had actually confessed his feelings to Xi Mo! Such a shameless person!
After Xi Mo finished talking with Xi Ruoling, she slowly walked towards Maile Internet Cafe and received a friend request from Yu Xiaozhi. The next second after Xi Mo accepted it, Yu Xiaozhi sent her a message.
[Are you happy today?: Hello, Xi Mo, do you still remember me?]
【mol: Hello, I remember. 】
[Are you happy today?: That's great! You didn't come to the internet cafe. I've been here for a long time.]
[I'm having a good time today: I played several games with Brother Yan Gui. The games were fun, even though I'm a complete noob.]
[What's going on today: Brother Yan Gui is so handsome when he plays games. He doesn't talk or curse. I've been scolded so many times because I'm such a bad player. I feel so sorry for him. But as long as I follow Brother Yan Gui, I can win. He's so awesome.]
[Happy today: I'll tell you a secret, I really like Brother Yan Gui.]
[mol: You should tell Xiu Yangui, not me.]
[Are you happy today? Oh, I'm shy, and Brother Yan Gui will definitely say I'm annoying. Brother Yan Gui only criticizes me and never criticizes others, humph.]
I don't understand what you are saying.
Xi Mo put away her phone and walked to Maile Internet Cafe.
Xiu Yangui, who was supposed to sit and play games with Yu Xiaozhi, stood at the door, staring at his phone with a look of surprise.
Hearing footsteps, he looked up with a gloomy look on his face, as if someone had provoked him.
"it's over?"
"Well, it's over."
Xiu Yangui breathed a sigh of relief, took Xi Mo's bag, and softened his expression. "Okay, call Ah Nian, and we'll go eat."
Xi Mo and Xiu Yangui walked into the Internet cafe. Chen Nianyu and Yu Xiaozhi sat together chatting and laughing. Yu Xiaozhi raised her hand from time to time and shyly patted Chen Nianyu.
"Nian Yu, you're so funny, hahahaha."
"Ah, Brother Yan Gui, Xi Mo is here too. I just sent you a message, why didn't you reply?"
Yu Xiaozhi walked over with a smile, as if she was very familiar with Xi Mo. In fact, it had been so long and they only added each other's contact information today.
Yu Xiaozhi walked between Xiu Yangui and Xi Mo, directly took Xi Mo's hand, and separated the two.
"Hey? Brother Yan Gui, why do you have an extra bag? What a beautiful schoolbag, it's light pink."
"be mine."
After learning that Xiu Yangui was carrying Xi Mo's backpack, Yu Xiaozhi's face froze. "Is that so? Wouldn't it be weird for a boy to carry something pink? The boys in my class used to be laughed at if they wore anything pink."
"Black looks best on boys. Pink doesn't suit them, right? Xi Mo."
is that so?
Xi Mo looked at Xiu Yangui. Regardless of anything else, she knew that Xiu Yangui cared most about face.
Xiu Yangui seemed not to hear it. He took two steps forward and called Chen Nianyu to go for dinner. Out of courtesy, he naturally brought Yu Xiaozhi along as well.
Yu Xiaozhi walked in front with Xi Mo, followed by Chen Nianyu and Xiu Yangui.
She was holding one person's arm and had to turn her head to interact with the person behind her.
"Nian Yu, how's your teammate recruitment going? Have you found the right people?"
"I got the job, and we've arranged to meet up this weekend."
"Boys and girls."
"The support position is a girl, and the top position is a boy."
Chen Nianyu's face was beaming with joy. He already had suitable teammates. He played the mage, Xiu Yangui played the jungler, and Yu Lan played the shooter. Their team was simply invincible and unstoppable.
"Ah! There are girls, pretty ones~"
"Can I come over this weekend? I want to hang out with some girls."
Yu Xiaozhi had already started walking backwards, and Xi Mo took this opportunity to move a little further away from her. She didn't want to hold hands with Yu Xiaozhi, as it felt awkward. She obviously didn't feel that resistant when holding hands with Qin Xinwei.
Yu Xiaozhi walked to the back and stood between Chen Nianyu and Xiu Yangui. Although she was chatting with Chen Nianyu, her body movements were close to Xiu Yangui, and her arm touched Xiu Yangui's sleeve from time to time.
Xiu Yangui put away his phone and took two steps towards Xi Mo. "Xi Momo, today, when we go to the office, you..."
"Uh, no, before you came to the internet cafe, were you and..."
Xiu Yangui found that he couldn't find any good words, so he could only say honestly: "Qin Rui heard Xi Ruoling talking to you. Xi Ruoling, did he confess his feelings to you?"
Xi Mo glanced at Xiu Yangui, who looked depressed, and said, "I know Qin Rui is a spy."
"Ah? How did you know?!"
Xiu Yangui was stunned with surprise. He thought the two of them were very secretive. It was over. It was barbecue.
Xi Mo showed no emotion, her expression remained gentle. "Qin Rui said it himself. When someone asked him why he started carrying a cell phone, he said he was a sworn defender of his partner."
This idiot flathead, Xiu Yangui was frustrated, "Okay, I'm sorry."
Xi Mo looked at Xiu Yangui seriously and promised him, "You can ask me directly, and I will tell you everything."
Of course he knew that Xi Mo would tell him if he asked, but he was shy and timid.
"…I see."
Xi Mo continued, "Yes, Xi Ruoling confessed his feelings."
Xiu Yangui immediately raised his head, "Then...how did you answer?"
"I said, thank you for your love, but it's impossible for us."
Xiu Yangui suddenly smiled brightly, "Oh, you rejected him."
"That's right, you don't like him. You did a great job, Xi Momo. You just need to cut the Gordian knot and reject him cleanly and thoroughly, eradicating the problem completely!"
Xiu Yangui was happy, "Then he, Xi Ruoling, is okay, he is not very sad."
Seeing Xiu Yangui smiling like it was New Year's Day, it seemed as if he wanted Xi Ruoling to be sad. However, she was about to disappoint him. Xi Mo shook her head and said, "He's not very sad."
"That's not okay for him," Xiu Yangui said proudly, "If it were me, I would be very sad, very sad."
I spoke too hastily and it's too late to make amends now.
"I, I mean..."
Xi Mo didn't look at him, as if she was making another promise, "You won't be sad, because I won't reject you."
Chen Nianyu, who was following behind the two of them, saw Xiu Yangui standing there in a daze, "What are you doing, Yan? Are you staring at the princess like crazy?"
"Let's go, there won't be any room left."
Xi Mo turned her head to look at Xiu Yangui. Xiu Yangui didn't dare to look at her. His eyes were vague and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.
I don’t know if it was Xi Mo’s illusion, but she seemed to be able to hear his heartbeat.
After thinking for a moment, as he passed by Xiu Yangui, he leaned close to him and said, "Xiu Yangui, your heartbeat is too loud."
Xiu Yangui immediately covered his heart with his hands. That wasn't right. He was wearing a sweater today, which was so thick. How could he hear it?
Then he saw the smile that flashed across Xi Mo's eyes, and realized that he had been fooled. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Xi Momo, you've learned bad habits. You're playing tricks on me."
Not only does Xi Mo not reflect on her mistakes, she also commits the same mistakes again.
Besides, this doesn’t count as learning bad things. I just read a few articles written by Qin Rui and learned something.
"But you like it, don't you?"
"Who, who likes it."
Xiu Yangui said stubbornly with a red face, Xi Mo responded calmly: "Really? I heard your heartbeat again."
"Hold!"
In his ears was Xiu Yangui's muffled curse, mixed with the emotional fluctuations surging from deep in his chest with the beating of his heart. He covered his heart again.
"Well done, Xi Momo."
Xi Mo turned her head and tilted it playfully towards Xiu Yangui, her eyes curved like crescent moons, the small reddish-brown mole at the end of her eyebrow glowing brightly, "Thank you."
Yu Xiaozhi, who was walking behind them, was not listening to what Chen Nianyu was saying at all. Her attention was all on the two people in front of her. It was obvious that the two of them did not act intimate at all, and even the corners of their clothes did not touch each other, but they gave people a blushing and heartbeating feeling, and they were inseparable. That kind of ambiguous and lingering feeling was vague and followed them like a shadow.
She was eager to know what the two had just said, so she pulled Chen Nianyu's arm and ran forward, "What are you two talking about? I want to listen too. You seem so happy."
Yu Xiaozhi wanted to hold Xi Mo's arm again, but Xi Mo dodged first. Yu Xiaozhi's expression froze for a moment, and then he smiled warmly again, "What were you whispering about just now? Why didn't you tell Nian Yu and me? Are you still friends?"
"Hmm? What are you two talking about, Ayan, Princess? You have a little secret from us."
Xiu Yangui spoke lazily, memorized it in his heart, and began to fool Chen Nianyu, "Yes, there is a little secret, do you want to hear it?"
"What?" Chen Nianyu was really curious. "What is it? What is it? Let me hear it. I want to hear it."
"That is..."
