☆, Chapter 83
The man has feelings for her, but she is heartless. Xiu Yangui can only force herself to empty her mind, stop thinking about things she shouldn't think about, and concentrate on immersing herself in the ocean of knowledge.
Facts have proved that following Xi Mo's footsteps was right, because Xi Yicheng couldn't sit still in the living room. He cut a plate of fruit and knocked on Xi Mo's door. Although he was anxious, he still waited for Xi Mo's permission before entering.
The door handle was pressed easily, and the fact that the door was not locked from the inside made the old man very satisfied.
"You must be tired from studying. Dad is here to bring you some fruit."
"Thank you, Dad."
Xiu Yangui straightened his body and looked back with innocence and integrity, "Thank you, uncle."
Seeing that they were really studying, and that both of them looked relaxed without any suspicious blush, Xi Yicheng felt even more satisfied and relieved, not noticing the slip of the tongue that Xiu Yangui almost blurted out.
"Okay, okay, don't work so hard, take a break, and combine work and rest."
"We get it, Dad."
Xi Yicheng nodded, pretended to be calm and walked forward to observe the two people's learning situation, and squeezed in between the two children. Poor Xiu Yangui could only drag his chair to the side to make room for him.
All in all, Xi Yicheng was very satisfied. He didn't know whether he was satisfied that the two were learning or that they had distanced themselves from each other. "Okay, keep studying."
The old father retired with a smile on his face. At the moment he closed the door, he caught a glimpse through the increasingly smaller gap in the door. Xi Mo waved at Xiu Yangui, asking him to move back, and touched Xiu Yangui's shoulder, as if to comfort his frightened little heart.
The genuine smile that had just unfolded couldn't help but show a crack. This pink-haired girl! Why is she pretending to be pitiful?
Parent Xi was so angry that he wanted to disturb the two children, but he collapsed halfway and was arrested by Parent Ruan. He could only return to the living room in misery.
Men really understand men. Xiu Yangui was indeed pretending to be pitiful. When Xi Yicheng was called away by Ruan Wenwen, he started again.
Lifting the eyelids from bottom to top, the brows were slightly wrinkled, and the deep wrinkles on the eyelids covered half of the pupils. The long eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly in the blink of an eye, making her look innocent, simple, and harmless.
"Xi Momo..."
"What's wrong?"
Seeing him like this, Xi Mo immediately put down her pen and turned to face Xiu Yangui.
Xiu Yangui hesitated for a while, as if he didn't dare to tell Xi Mo the truth, and then sighed.
"I feel like, maybe I'm too sensitive. I feel like my uncle doesn't like me very much."
Xi Mo wanted to shake her head to deny it, but she didn't have the confidence. Xi Yicheng really didn't like Xiu Yangui that much, and was quite wary of him.
Xiu Yangui took advantage of the opportunity to speak, his voice was not very concrete, and he said lightly, "Did I do something wrong? I can change, I can learn."
His tone was depressed and helpless, confused and a little scared. "I will try my best to be better in the future, really."
Xi Mo comforted Xiu Yangui seriously, "You are very good, but my father doesn't understand you. He will slowly understand you in the future."
Xiu Yangui liked to hear Xi Mo say the word "later". He continued his performance, looking thoughtfully in the direction where Xi Yicheng left, nodding submissively, his eyes lowered pitifully, as if Xi Yicheng was the executioner who broke them up. "I know."
How could Xi Mo bear to see Xiu Yangui sad? She stood up and hugged him, but she really couldn't think of anything to say. No one had ever taught her how to comfort a sad lover.
After a while, a plan came up, "We can elope."
Xiu Yangui was still enjoying Xi Mo's hug, but when he heard this, he couldn't act anymore and suddenly laughed out loud. He also knew that he was pretending to be sentimental and it was a bit embarrassing for Xi Mo.
I didn't expect Xi Mo to say such words. If Xi Yicheng heard it, he would be furious.
Xi Mo couldn't understand Xiu Yangui's unpredictable mood. He was so emo just now, but now he was laughing so hard.
"What are you laughing at?"
It was Xiu Yangui who answered Xi Mo with his eyes curved in laughter. He shook his head, trying hard to suppress his smile, "No, ahem."
"Xi Momo, you are so willful."
He had no intention of studying anymore. Xiu Yangui raised his hand and embraced Xi Mo. The two of them were very close, one standing and the other sitting, one with his head down and the other looking up, which was really a bit awkward.
But he didn't let Xi Mo sit back down. Instead, he patted his thigh and said in a very ruffian tone, "Sit down or not?"
"If you miss this opportunity, you'll miss it forever. Don't miss this opportunity."
Is there any reason not to sit down? Of course Xi Mo turned sideways and sat on his lap. The two of them hugged each other. Xiu Yangui started to laugh again, but this time it was a secret joy, and the corners of his mouth were not raised so much. While he was shouting loudly in his heart, he had to be on guard at the door. They looked innocent like this.
Xiu Yangui is tall and strong, with long arms and legs and broad shoulders. Although he has the thinness of a young man, he is not weak. His body is covered with a perfect layer of muscles, which makes it quite comfortable to lean on.
Xi Mo can nestle completely in his arms, swinging her feet while sitting. The air conditioner in the room is working, adjusting the room temperature according to the protagonist's physiological changes. The two of them are not hot even when they are leaning against each other. One is looking at the phone and the other is reading a textbook. It is just the right amount of comfort.
When the years were peaceful, Xiu Yangui received a call from Chen Nianyu. He was a little surprised. Chen Nianyu should be having dinner with friends now. How could he have time to call him?
"Hello, Anian."
"Ayan, good afternoon, have you eaten?"
It's almost half past twelve, but there is no movement from the parents downstairs. Maybe the two mothers are still chatting.
"No, what's wrong?"
"Uh, that's it, haha."
Chen Nianyu laughed awkwardly twice. Other people's voices came from the other end of the phone. It seemed that they were all listening to this call. There were also whispers, and they sounded a little excited.
Xiu Yangui had already vaguely guessed what they were playing, but he didn't expect that it was only noon and they were already playing the party game that young people loved most and never got tired of playing - Truth or Dare.
"What is it?"
Chen Nianyu spoke vaguely, "There's no one next to you."
Xi Mo put down the book, looked over, and exchanged glances with Xiu Yangui. Xiu Yangui put his index finger on his lips, signaling her not to make any sound. He turned on the speaker of his cell phone and put it on the table. He hugged Xi Mo in his arms, waiting to hear what the group of people were going to say.
I only heard Chen Nianyu speak with difficulty.
"Uh, that's right, that's not what I want to ask. I just lost the game, and then they asked me to call you to ask a question..."
"Oh, I don't dare!"
A few seconds later, the person on the other end of the phone changed to a girl, "I'll do it, there's nothing to be afraid of asking."
Xi Mo had heard this voice before. It was a girl in school who was in the same grade as them.
"Hello, Xiu Yangui, I'm Lei Lei."
"We're playing Truth or Dare now. Chen Nianyu chose Truth or Dare. He has to ask you a personal question."
"But he doesn't dare to ask. I'll ask for him, okay?"
Xi Mo is also familiar with the name Lei Lei. When Qin Xinwei talks to her about gossip in school, this name would appear from time to time. Lei Lei likes to organize parties. No matter whether she is familiar with the people or not, she wants to play together. She is very outgoing and loves to play.
Hearing this, Xiu Yangui knew that this "personal question" must not be a good question. It must be someone else's idea. Chen Nianyu didn't dare to ask, so Lei Lei came on the scene. This person was a talkative person, and there was no telling what he would ask. For now, he could only continue to talk to them.
"Personal question? How personal is that?"
Xiu Yangui was very cautious. Just kidding, Xi Mo was still here. If they asked some super private questions, how could he dare to answer them?
"Don't worry, you can definitely answer them. You are the top moral educator, what questions would you be afraid of?"
Hearing the flattery, Xiu Yangui chuckled, rubbed Xi Mo's head with his cheek, and said lazily: "That's not necessarily true, I've never been very courageous."
"Ask."
With Xiu Yangui's words, the students over there became obviously more excited. The reception effect of the mobile phone was surprisingly good, and the two people here could hear the discussion over there.
"Hurry up, hurry up, what are you asking? Ask about the first kiss."
"What's so great about asking about a first kiss? You're such a pure boy, don't waste this great opportunity. Ask something big, about my first night."
"It's not enough. The first kiss and the first night are not explosive enough. We need to do something else, like how long each time is."
"Can Brother Yan answer any more questions?"
No, dear.
Xiu Yangui's smile became a little forced, and he began to regret answering the call.
What a stupid question. Should I cover Xi Mo's ears now? But she seems quite interested. She doesn't even read the book and just stares at the call interface.
They really don't know how to seize the opportunity, and they put off asking a question until the end of time.
Xiu Yangui was helpless and could only sigh, "Am I deaf? Why haven't I heard the question yet?"
"Right away, right away."
It was Lei Lei again. After screening out a bunch of inappropriate questions, she chose to ask the one that was most popular.
"Well, we've thought about it, and this is the problem."
"How old are you."
What's the problem? Xi Mo leaned back into Xiu Yangui's arms with some regret. Several people on the other end of the phone also expressed disapproval, while at the same time, some people cheered.
It was obvious that some people were still in Macabaka, while others had already driven onto the highway.
Xiu Yangui didn't even blink, and replied calmly, "Currently, eighteen."
“Wow!” “Ahhhh.” “Hahahaha that’s awesome.” “Fuck.”
"Brother Yan, is it true? Is it true?"
"Is it true? Is it authentic? Is there any scientific basis for it?"
Xiu Yangui glanced at Xi Mo, who hadn't figured it out yet, and said, "Of course it's true. Whoever lies will be ten centimeters shorter."
Another atavistic voice came from the phone, "Brother Yan, words are not enough, you have to prove it."
"That's right, Brother Yan." "Yes." "Prove it." "See you in the men's restroom when school starts. See you there."
At this time, the parents downstairs had finished chatting and were finally going to eat, and were calling the two to come downstairs.
Xi Mo left Xiu Yangui's arms. She had been sitting for a long time and her legs felt numb. She could not stand up steadily. Xiu Yangui supported her while bending over to massage her legs.
The people on the other end of the phone continued to make noise, and Xiu Yangui no longer had the heart to answer them.
"Still need proof? I'm afraid you'll feel inferior."
"I have something else to do here, you guys have fun, I'm hanging up now."
Xiu Yangui stood up from the chair, squatted down and massaged Xi Mo's legs again. Xi Mo couldn't stand steadily, so she held his shoulders and looked down, seeing a beautiful head of pink hair.
Xiu Yangui was oblivious to her gaze, "Can you leave, Xi Momo?"
Xi Mo just felt her hands itching, stretched out her fingers, and gently touched the soft pink hair with her fingertips, answering him distractedly: "It should be possible."
Xiu Yangui felt her touch and laughed, "Are you touching the dog?"
She stood up and pretended to be angry and said, "Is it appropriate for you to touch my head while I'm massaging your legs? Xi Momo."
Xi Mo stamped her feet, and the numbness was gone. She looked up and saw a calm and lovely smile on her beautiful, porcelain-white face. "Thank you, brother."
At this moment, Xiu Yangui was thinking that he might always be attracted to Xi Mo for the rest of his life. This must be his fate.
Losing his temper, he sat on the chair, took Xi Mo's hand and put it on his head, "Come on, this summer limited edition hair color will soon be gone."
Yes, the countdown to school is on, and Xiu Yangui will have to dye his hair again in two days.
Xi Mo touched him a few more times with some regret, and finally kissed his pink-haired head. The shampoo used by Xiu Yangui was the same brand as Xi Mo's. It had a fresh and non-greasy scent, and it smelled particularly good.
Xiu Yangui felt the touch on his head and became jealous of his hair. He tilted his head back and said, "Don't kiss my hair."
Then where is the kiss? Xiu Yangui didn't say it clearly, but just looked at Xi Mo with a stubborn and persistent look.
Xi Mo followed his lead and kissed him on the lips.
While eating in the restaurant, Xiu Yangui caught a glimpse of a waiter passing by with a cake, and couldn't help but remember Xiu Changle's birthday party a few days later. In fact, Xiu Yangui didn't want to remember it so clearly, but Xi Mo's birthday was approaching, her eighteenth birthday.
Rich people always celebrate their children's birthdays, especially their eighteenth birthdays, with great fanfare. The Xiu family was even more extravagant. On this day, Xiu Shangzhu cleared out the lobby of the largest hotel under the Xiu Group, specifically to celebrate Xiu Changle's birthday.
Those invited to the birthday party are all well-known entrepreneurs and bigwigs, and even more are children from various families. By the way, the illegitimate children of some bosses are also invited. The current scene seems harmonious on the surface, but in fact there are undercurrents and tensions.
Xiu Yangui came with Xi Mo. Wu Manlin was still choosing her battle robe and would be able to enter later. Xi Yicheng and Ruan Wenwen had received an invitation from Xiu Shangzhu, but were too busy to attend.
It was only two o'clock in the afternoon, and the magnificent hall was filled with only young faces, dressed in bright and luxurious custom-made suits and haute couture gowns. Brooches and jewelry sparkled under the lights, dazzling the eyes.
Xiu Yangui was sharp-eyed and found a boy who looked exactly like Xiu Shangzhu. His mother was standing next to him, and she was the type of beautiful girl next door.
