Chapter 93: Will I, like this, scare Wanwan?
Li Xingye didn't expect Chi Wan to start from zero frame and flash directly in front of him, so he didn't adjust his expression well and was caught by Chi Wan.
He had a rare feeling of embarrassment as if he was being executed on the spot for saying something bad about someone behind their back - the worst thing was, he hadn't even started saying anything bad!
But Chi Wan just stared at him with a knowing smile, not letting him avoid her at all.
Li Xingye could only bite the bullet and say, "Learn bad things...what?"
Chi Wan continued to move forward with a smile, like a little fox who had caught the enemy's weakness: "I just found that when some people say pitiful things, their facial expressions don't change at all. Tsk tsk... Brother Xingye, it seems that the image of you in my heart needs to be adjusted~"
Li Xingye was forced back step by step by Chi Wan until his back hit the rough tree trunk.
He lowered his head and looked at Chi Wan's cunning smile. His Adam's apple moved slightly: "So, have I become a bad guy in Wan Wan's heart?"
For some reason, Li Xingye like this suddenly made Chi Wan feel a hint of danger.
She looked at Li Xingye's eyes which had become somewhat deep, and then realized that she seemed to be too complacent. She laughed dryly and was about to step back and say that she was only joking, but Li Xingye grabbed her wrist.
The positions of the two people were reversed in an instant. Li Xingye gently held her wrist and held her between himself and the tree trunk. He lowered his eyes and stared into her eyes, and whispered: "Then, will I be afraid of Wanwan like this?"
Chi Wan looked at Li Xingye in a daze, and the way he treated enemies and zombies before flashed through his mind.
Sharpness and gentleness, paradoxically mixed in the same person, made her unable to take her eyes away.
For some reason, Chi Wan suddenly thought of a sentence he had read before: Looking into each other's eyes is a spiritual kiss without lust.
Wait, what the hell are you thinking about?
Chi Wan's face flushed, and she avoided Li Xingye's gaze in embarrassment, shouting in her heart: There is something really wrong with Li Xingye today! !
This was the second time that Chi Wan, who had always held the initiative, had experienced the embarrassment of the situation getting out of control twice within one day.
Is this correct?
How could Chi Wan, who had always been strong all his life, tolerate such a thing?
She suddenly raised her head again, and finally caught sight of Li Xingye's slightly red ears and not-so-determined eyes beneath his seemingly calm appearance.
It turns out... Li Xingye was also holding on.
Chi Wan realized this and immediately regained some initiative. She raised her head, no longer avoiding Li Xingye's focused gaze, and smiled brightly: "How could it be? Brother Xingye looks even more charming like this~"
Li Xingye, who seemed to have turned the tables, originally felt a little guilty. But when he found that Chi Wan, who was always good at playing straight balls, actually avoided his gaze one day, he couldn't help but feel a little happy - does this mean that Wan Wan is not unresponsive to him?
Unfortunately, Chi Wan’s extremely quick “counterattack” soon made Li Xingye realize that a momentary initiative does not mean anything.
But after hearing Chi Wan's words, he still couldn't control his accelerated heartbeat.
He did not avoid Chi Wan's gaze, but asked her another question: "Wan Wan, you asked me last time why I cared so much about Xia Houyu. Do you still want to hear the answer?"
Chi Wan paused.
She finally confirmed that Li Xingye had really changed. He was no longer the Li Xingye who would become shy after just a few words.
After the "interrogation" in which she was pinned down between the backs of the chair, Li Xingye seemed to have turned on some extraordinary switch.
If it were before, she would be happy to "force" Li Xingye to face this problem directly.
But the situation today was very wrong, and she was a little worried that she was not ready to hear the answer.
Or maybe, she was homesick, and when she was really one step away from the answer in her heart, she hesitated.
So, Chi Wan did something that she had previously despised - she just slipped away.
Before she slipped away, she hurriedly left a sentence: "I don't want to know today, tell me next time~"
After saying that, he disappeared.
Li Xingye looked at his hand, which seemed to still retain the touch of Chi Wan's wrist just now.
For a moment, he seemed to feel that Chi Wan's pulse was in sync with his heartbeat.
Li Xingye rubbed his fingers gently, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he left the space directly.

After returning to the room, Chi Wan immediately closed the entrance to the space, then screamed silently and buried his head in the pillow again, pretending to be an ostrich.
She deeply realized that she had taken things for granted before.
How could a doomsday boss like Li Xingye, even if he was a little clumsy in terms of emotions, really be a harmless puppy?
As long as he slightly showed his usual attitude in the end times, those sharp edges could not be concealed at all.
And those deliberately suppressed feelings of strength and aggression suddenly surrounded him, making Chi Wan tremble a little.
It's not fear, but... excitement.
It is fun to tease a harmless puppy, but how can it compare to taming a wolf that has sheathed its fangs, pretends to be docile, but occasionally cannot help but reveal its wildness?
Chi Wan could feel that Li Xingye, who was slowly revealing his true appearance in front of her, might be more dangerous and crazy than a wolf.
But for Chi Wan, he was incredibly attractive.
Chi Wan thought, maybe next time, she could listen carefully to Li Xingye's explanation of why he was so repulsive to Xiahou Yu.

The next day, Xiahou Yu arrived at Chi Wan's house on time.
He didn't bring a driver today, and even changed to an SUV. There was a big bag of snacks prepared for Chi Wan on the back seat.
But when Xiahou Yu saw Chi Wan's luggage, he seemed a little surprised: "Is that all?"
Chi Wan handed him the suitcase: "Yes, I only brought some clothes back, most of the things are in the dormitory."
Xiahou Yu put the luggage and the mechanical puppy in the trunk, nodded, and asked no more questions.
After locking the gate of the yard, the only gap slowly closed when the car passed the circle of thorns at the foot of the mountain.
Xiahou Yu drove very steadily and would take the initiative to find topics to chat with Chi Wan on the road.
Chi Wan was surprised to find that no matter what field was discussed, Xiahou Yu could always talk about it.
What is rare is that when faced with a topic that he does not have a deep understanding of, he can listen quietly without interrupting or making any rash assumptions.
Even when talking about artificial intelligence, a field in which he is more specialized, his attitude is humble, and he does not think that the questions asked by Chi Wan are superficial, disdainful or fatherly.
The three-hour drive was not too long, and the two of them talked about all sorts of things without interruption. When the car stopped, they still seemed to be reluctant to leave.
But just as Chi Wan got off the car, he heard an unexpectedly familiar voice: "...Wan Wan?"
