Chapter 118 Why are you so delicate?
At the dinner table.
Ye Yinghui invited Grandma Lu and Lu Xiangye to dinner. "The two children have finally finished their exams. They can relax for a while, and you can relax too."
Grandma Lu looked up at Lu Xiangye and said with a smile, "Although this brat is a bit unreliable, fortunately he doesn't give me any worries."
Lu Xiangye was peeling shrimp with gloves on, his voice lazy, "It's rare to hear you praise me."
Grandma Lu: "Go to college soon, so I can have some peace and quiet."
Grandma Lu looked at Lin Zixia again and smiled, "It would be great if Xiaoxia and this brat could go to the same university."
Lu Xiangye raised his eyebrows slightly, "Maybe."
"Yeah, that way I can take care of you." Ye Yinghui also looked at Lin Zixia, she was a little confused, "Xiaoxia, why is your face so red?"
Lin Zixia lowered her head while eating. She raised her hand and touched her face. "Ah, is that so? Maybe it's too hot."
Ye Yinghui took the air conditioner remote control and said, "Then I'll turn down the temperature."
Lin Zixia pursed her lips, raised her eyes and saw Lu Xiangye looking at her with a half-smile.
Too hot?
Lin Zixia turned his eyes away, because he was being a rogue.
Otherwise, how could she have done such an irrational thing just now!
With a smile in his eyes, Lu Xiangye slowly took off his gloves and raised his hand to push the freshly peeled shrimp towards her.
Lin Zixia caught a glimpse of his movements and immediately kicked him under the table.
Lu Xiangye groaned, and both Grandma Lu and Ye Yinghui looked over.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Zixia used her eyes to warn him not to say anything nonsense. Lu Xiangye raised an eyebrow, afraid that he would talk nonsense again. Before he could speak, Lin Zixia immediately pushed the small bowl in front of Grandma Lu, "Grandma Lu, Lu Xiangye is really filial. He peeled so many shrimps for you!"
The air suddenly became quiet.
Lin Zixia caught a glimpse of Lu Xiangye's expression of trying not to laugh, and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Grandma Lu also looked a little strange. She turned her head to look at Lu Xiangye and handed the bowl of shrimp to Lin Zixia. "I can't eat shrimp. Anyway, that brat has already peeled it. Xia Xia, you eat it."
Lin Zixia looked at the shrimp meat piled up in front of him and blinked.
What stupid thing did she just do?!
Fortunately, Ye Yinghui and Grandma Lu started chatting again and didn't pay much attention to this detail.
Lu Xiangye looked at the annoyed little girl, curled his lips slightly, and whispered, "Idiot."
Lin Zixia immediately looked up and glared at him.
Lu Xiangye shrugged and smiled nonchalantly.
After dinner, Lu Xiangye said to Ye Yinghui, "Aunt Hui, we're going out to play this afternoon. Lin Xiaoxia won't be back for dinner."
Ye Yinghui didn't think much about it. "Okay, you should relax after the exam and be careful."
Lu Xiangye stood up and helped her clean up the dishes, "Okay."
Ye Yinghui quickly stopped him, "No, no, you guys go play, I'll do it."
Lu Xiangye had already folded the bowls and carried them into the kitchen. "I do the same thing at home. You've worked hard cooking, I'll clean up."
Ye Yinghui tried to snatch it several times but failed. She smiled and said to Grandma Lu, "This child is so sensible, much better than that brat in my family."
Ye Yinghui followed into the kitchen to help clean up. Lin Zixia asked Grandma Lu to sit on the sofa. From time to time, sounds from the kitchen could be heard.
Lu Xiangye didn't know what he said, but Ye Yinghui smiled happily.
…
In the afternoon, Grandma Lu went back for lunch.
As soon as the two of them went out, Lu Xiangye took Lin Zixia's hand.
Lin Zixia looked back and said, "Don't."
Lu Xiangye held her hand tightly, pulled her to his side, and walked towards the elevator with her in his arms from behind, "I will!"
Lin Zixia looked around and luckily there was no one around.
Seeing her cautious look, Lu Xiangye felt a little unhappy, "It would be fine if you didn't make it public, but you are so sneaky."
Lin Zixia held his arm with both hands and shook it gently, "Lu Xiangye, don't be angry. We just finished the exam, we should at least wait for the results to come out and everything to be settled."
Lu Xiangye lowered his eyes and looked at the little girl who was acting coquettishly and naughty towards him. His heart softened and the slight dissatisfaction he had felt disappeared.
He raised his hand and pinched her face, "That's the trick."
Lin Zixia's eyes curved, "Just tell me if it works for you or not?"
Lu Xiangye turned his eyes away, his face cold and aloof, "I don't buy it."
Lin Zixia smiled, hugged his arm and moved closer to him, her voice soft, "Really?"
She stood on tiptoe, trying to meet his gaze, "Lu Xiangye?"
"Brother Lu?"
"Ono?"
Lu Xiangye immediately turned around, his dark eyes locked on her, a hint of danger in his eyes, "What's your name?"
"Ono?"
Lin Zixia teased him on purpose, and the next second, his cheek was pinched.
Lu Xiangye bent down and looked at her, his narrow, dark eyes narrowed, and his tone was vicious, "Lin Xiaoxia, if you call me like that again, I don't mind teaching you the correct way to address me."
Lin Zixia wasn't afraid of her at all. She raised her little face and looked at him curiously, "What's the correct name?"
Lu Xiangye looked into the little girl's clear eyes, his eyelashes slightly narrowed, and he suddenly let go of her hand.
Looking at the red marks on her fair and tender face that he had pinched, he gently rubbed her with his fingertips a few times and sighed softly, "Why are you so delicate?"
He didn't even try.
Why does it turn red when touched?
Lin Zixia was still struggling with the question just now, "You haven't answered me yet?"
Lu Xiangye's eyes darkened slightly, and his voice was lazily and a little hoarse. "You'll know later."
"What? Keeping us in suspense again." Lin Zixia was a little dissatisfied and muttered softly.
Lu Xiangye took her hand and walked out. Lin Zixia asked, "Where are we going?"
Lu Xiangye: "Date."
Just as he walked out of the apartment building and saw the one, two, or three people standing in front of him, Lu Xiangye's face turned dark.
