Thanks.
Shi Xi looked at the roses handed to her, hesitated for two seconds, smiled at Qin Budu, and then took them.
Qi Tingsong's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes suddenly turned cold.
He grabbed Shi Xi's arm and said to Qin Budu, "Xiao Chu and I have something to do, so we'll be leaving now."
Without waiting for Qin Budu's reaction, he turned and left.
"...?"
Shi Xi was puzzled, not understanding what Qi Tingsong wanted to talk to him about.
...
After returning to the room with Qi Tingsong, Shi Xi watched as he calmly closed the door and then pressed him down onto the sofa.
"Xiao Chu".
Qi Tingsong placed one knee on the sofa and held onto the sofa with his other hand, a posture that almost encircled Shi Xi in his arms.
"Huh?" Shi Xi looked completely puzzled.
"You're pursuing me, aren't you?" Qi Tingsong suddenly asked.
"certainly."
As Shi Xi was speaking, she tried to look up, but Qi Tingsong covered her eyes with his long, slender fingers.
Qi Tingsong's greedy and burning gaze lingered on Shi Xi's face for two seconds, then he slowly bent down and whispered in Shi Xi's ear—
"Since you're pursuing me, then stay away from other unimportant people."
"...I don't like you doing this."
Qi Tingsong's voice sounded somewhat muffled, as if he wasn't very happy.
After he finished speaking, he composed himself and reluctantly let go of her hand.
"Can you do it?" Qi Tingsong looked at Shi Xi, as if trying to see the expression on her face.
Qi Tingsong, as expected of the protagonist, has a standard Chinese face. His long, narrow phoenix eyes are focused intently on Shi Xishi, making him feel that he is almost bewitched by him.
And whether it was just her imagination or not, Shi Xi saw a strong possessiveness in the other person's eyes for a moment.
—Qi Tingsong didn't seem to mind his persistent pursuit?
Shi Xi seemed to sense that the plot was about to deviate from its intended direction.
However, Qi Tingsong's emotions were only revealed for a moment. As Shi Xi's premonition gradually became clear, Qi Tingsong looked away and sat down next to Shi Xi.
"If it's not possible, then forget it," he said to Shi Xi. "Don't come looking for me again."
After saying that, he turned to look at the television, seemingly unconcerned about Shi Xi's answer.
But what he was thinking was, what if Xu Youchu really didn't agree and didn't plan to look for him anymore?
He was somewhat uneasy.
Xu Youchu has only just come of age, an age when people are easily bored and fickle. In addition, he has just come down from the mountain, so it's normal for his temperament to be unstable. I can teach him slowly... These words are too harsh.
...How about we change how we address it?
Qi Tingsong thought to himself.
Meanwhile, Shi Xi was muttering to herself about her system—
"Cold Relief Pills, are you sure the plot is okay? I have a feeling it's going to fall apart again..."
"Nothing is amiss," the capybara replied calmly, with an orange on its head.
"Why did Qi Tingsong suddenly become like this?" Shi Xi asked, somewhat incredulous.
"..." The capybara was silent for a while. "Think about what you just did. You accepted Qin Budu's roses in front of him."
"Perhaps Qi Tingsong has already fallen for Qin Budu, and he's jealous of your actions, so he's saying this on purpose."
"The plot is absolutely flawless!"
Shi Xi was skeptical, but ultimately decided to believe Ganmaoling's words.
So he said to Qi Tingsong, "My lady, I can!"
"Really?" Qi Tingsong paused for a second, then asked somewhat uncertainly.
"Of course it's true." Shi Xi raised her hand, making a vow gesture. "If you don't believe me, I'll swear. If I can't keep my promise, then..."
Xu Youchu, the devoted male supporting character, was destined to fall for Qi Tingsong; he was just friends with everyone else.
Therefore, Shi Xi had absolutely no guilty conscience when she made the oath.
"Need not."
Qi Tingsong covered Shi Xi's mouth, "I believe you."
Shi Xi: "..."
—This person is so easy to fool.
The thought popped into both of their minds at the same time.
