Can
This actually shows that Chen Shuning is not rejecting herself.
This was undoubtedly a very good thing for Xu Xi. It was like looking for chopsticks when eating and someone just handed you a pair of chopsticks.
For the first time, Xu Xi felt that she had quite good luck in pursuing people. Perhaps, perhaps everyone had this success in pursuing others. Since she herself had never pursued anyone before, she didn't know if it was always this easy. Could this be a natural talent?
Apart from being awkward and tongue-tied yesterday, I didn't know how to greet people or find topics to chat about.
Today I feel that these days, we get along quite well. They are in the same industry and have the same hobbies, so all the "coincidences" happen between the two of them.
Xu Xi watched Chen Shuning leaning slightly towards her, and she liked her more and more. Then she also moved forward a little bit, lowering her head a little, so that the side of her hair was facing Chen Shuning.
"Hmm...then smell it."
Xu Xi held a coffee cup in one hand and supported herself on the sofa with the other hand, which she held tightly to the sofa. Her palms were already full of sweat, but she still pretended to be calm and asked Chen Shuning:
"Does it smell good?"
With such a good opportunity, could she move forward a little? Everyone wants to get closer to the person they like, right? Xu Xi was the same. She mustered up her courage and, while tilting her head to let Chen Shuning smell her, she stealthily moved a little closer to him.
However, as the distance got closer, Xu Xi became even more nervous. She felt her ears getting a little hot.
Chen Shuning stayed close to her for a few seconds, then slightly moved away.
“It smells really good.”
As she spoke, she used her hands to tidy up the hair by her ears, and then said to Xu Xi: "Your hair is really good. How do you take care of it?"
Xu Xi sipped her coffee. "I didn't do much care. I just washed my hair, used some conditioner, and applied some essential oil."
Come to think of it, she hadn't yet found a job that would require her to work overtime. So her hair hadn't fallen out yet; it was actually quite good. She hadn't cut it short just to make money or get too lazy to wash it. She hadn't gotten any panda eyes yet, and her complexion was still there.
It would be so nice if it were like this.
Xu Xi thought about her pretentious appearance before her rebirth, and then looked at the beautiful and delicious person in front of her. If it were before, she would definitely feel inferior.
"With just this simple, everyday care, your hair can be so shiny and smooth?" Chen Shuning said, leaning closer again. "I usually do it this way, but it doesn't look as good as yours."
Xu Xi was too nervous to react. She didn't know Chen Shuning would lean over again. She was stunned and subconsciously stiffened her body.
He even stuttered. "But, maybe it's because I've never dyed or permed my hair, so it's smoother."
Xu Xi's eyes fell on his long hair, which was slightly curly and dyed chestnut color.
Chen Shuning grabbed a bit of her hair, curled it slightly with her hands, then chuckled and said casually, "My hair is a little dry."
Before Xu Xi could figure out how to continue the conversation after hearing this, she heard Chen Shuning continue talking.
Chen Shuning: "Can I touch your hair?"
“…” Xu Xi was completely stunned.
Yes, of course, she would love it.
It's just a little sudden and surprising.
In fact, Xu Xi always felt as if something was not right, but she couldn't put her finger on it. What was wrong? She was obviously the one who wanted to pursue the man, but it seemed that she had not done anything to seduce him. Instead, she was seduced by the man again and again, and she was so nervous that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Xu Xi swallowed her saliva in a daze. She was troubled for a few seconds. Finally, she convinced herself:
Maybe this is just a way for girls to get along with each other. She doesn't usually make friends, but that doesn't mean Chen Shuning doesn't have normal friends. This is Chen Shuning's normal way of making friends. She can't just tell someone she wants to be with someone without making any other efforts just because she's attracted to them.
She had to be nice to Chen Shuning first, make her feel that she was a reliable person, and then confess her feelings to her. This would increase the probability of them being together.
Xu Xi sighed silently. It was all her fault for not making many friends. She didn't even know the most basic way to get along with friends.
This behavior of smelling and touching hair should not be considered "crossing the line". When she was in school, she remembered that some ordinary girls would go to the toilet together when they were friends, holding hands.
So, normal.
She now needs to maintain her current way of getting along with others. She can't scare Chen Shuning away just because she is anxious to be with her.
"Yes, sure."
