Chapter 54 "You're Pretty Sweet"
Qi Yuexin stood in front of He Xiluo, looking straight at him with eyes full of expectation.
Her red lips curled up slightly, and she puffed out her chest, feeling inexplicably confident at this moment.
She has known He Xilou for several years, so how can she be compared to Meng Shiyi?
He Xilou still maintained his posture of leaning against the wall, with his legs slightly crossed, looking lazy and wanton, glancing at her nonchalantly.
Qi Yuexin, the little niece of his friend Qi Yao, he had met several times.
He Xilou showed no emotion, his voice was rather cold, and contained a kind of indifference that kept people at a distance:
"I'm not thirsty."
As soon as the words fell, Qi Yuexin's face instantly became a little ugly.
Brother Xilou was clearly telling Meng Shiyi that he was thirsty just a second ago.
This is clearly a disguised rejection of her for the sake of her uncle Qi Yao.
But why, why can't she do it, but Meng Shiyi can? What's so special about Meng Shiyi?
Qi Yuexin tried hard to control her expression, hiding her disappointment, and tried her best to smile slightly:
"Okay~ Brother Xilou, I'll be leaving first. See you next time!"
Just as I was about to leave.
He Xilou called her slowly, "Wait a moment."
Qi Yuexin immediately turned around and looked at him, her hope rekindled, her heart pounding, "What's wrong?"
He Xilou's voice was indifferent: "You have been eavesdropping for a long time, right?"
In an instant, Qi Yuexin felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her whole body became stiff.
It turns out he knows everything!
"Brother Xilou, I didn't mean to—"
"That sounds harsh," He Xilou interrupted her ruthlessly, "Don't call me that next time. We're not that familiar."
After saying that, Qi Yuexin stood there in disbelief.
Her eyes gradually became hot, her hands were shaking, and she could even smell the blood in her throat.
"I...I understand."
She forced herself to hold back her tears, turned and ran away, with a hint of jealousy and resentment in her eyes.
After a while, Meng Shiyi came back after buying water.
She handed the mineral water bottle to He Xilou, her voice as gentle as the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River, "This is for you."
He Xilou naturally took the bottle of mineral water and started drinking.
Meng Shiyi lowered her eyes and asked softly, "Don't you... not drink water given by girls?"
He Xilou let out a soft laugh, as if he had discovered something wrong. He stared at her slowly and said, "How do you know I don't drink water given by girls?"
Meng Shiyi bit her lip nervously, "That's what everyone else says..."
"Yes, I don't drink water given by girls." He Xilou rolled his Adam's apple and leaned towards her, "But, Sister Shiyi——"
"Um?"
"You are the exception."
He Xilou couldn't help but reach out and rub her head, with a bit of pampering in his tone: "Let's go, little friend."
"oh oh…"
Meng Shiyi was confused and had not yet recovered from the word "exception".
Do you still treat her as a little sister?
I don’t think so.
Another secret and bold idea grew in Meng Shiyi's heart.
He Xilou must be a little bit special to her, a little bit caring about her, and a little bit fond of her, right?
The intersection where the two separated.
Meng Shiyi still turned around and looked at He Xilou's back.
But this time, she didn't expect He Xilou to stop and look at her.
In an instant, Meng Shiyi could clearly hear the deafening heartbeat.
Finally, she no longer quietly watched He Xilou's back as he left.
Instead, He Xilou looked at her.
This moment.
She had a strong feeling that her moon was getting closer and closer, almost within reach...
It wasn't long before Meng Shiyi returned to the dormitory.
Qi Yuexin also returned to the dormitory with a cold face.
Her face looked extremely ugly, and she even rolled her eyes.
The lively and warm atmosphere in the dormitory suddenly dissipated.
Qi Yuexin didn't seem to want to stay in the same space with them. She put on her lipstick, packed her designer bag and went out.
Xu Qingqing finally reacted: "Fuck, did this guy just roll his eyes at me?!"
Sheng Wan thought for a moment and analyzed carefully: "If I'm not mistaken, she seems to be translating poetry."
And she felt strongly that there was a malicious intent coming at her.
Xu Qingqing frowned. "That shouldn't be the case. Why would she target Shiyi for no apparent reason? What's wrong with you two?"
Meng Shiyi said honestly: "I don't know either."
Ever since Qi Yuexin moved in, she and Qi Yuexin hadn't had much interaction, they were just ordinary roommates.
Meng Shiyi was about to speak when suddenly, her cell phone buzzed twice.
He Xilou sent her a picture of an empty mineral water bottle.
【HXL: I finished it. It's quite sweet.】
Meng Shiyi was a little confused and typed doubtfully: [It's just ordinary mineral water.]
How can it be sweet?
The next second, He Xilou sent a voice message. The man's voice was lazy and magnetic, with a hint of casual allure at the end, which was particularly alluring.
He said, "I mean, you're pretty sweet."
