Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 142 No damaging public property!

"Shi Sui, can't you tell who I like?"

The boy's voice was low and hoarse, tinged with lust, and his gaze was deep, like a shadow under the moonlight.

Shi Sui's heart was pounding. In just a few breaths, countless images of her time with Xu Chaomu flashed through her mind.

Buying study guides, browsing stationery stores, eating, discussing problems, studying, doing practice problems...

If there's anything special about us, it's that we occasionally take walks together.

But 90% of the conversations revolved around studying, and last night was an exception.

……

Xu Chaomu then saw the girl in front of him become flustered, her eyes began to dart around, and she looked as if she was troubled by a century-old problem.

He had seen her rack her brains trying every possible way to reject Chi Yan.

In the end, I still didn't want to trouble her.

"I was just kidding." Xu Chaomu smiled calmly and released her arm. "I don't have anyone I like."

Having come very close to the finish line, Shi Sui turned around and ran back to the starting line.

She took a step back, creating some distance.

Shi Sui breathed a sigh of relief: "I was so scared. I thought you liked me."

Xu Chaomu gave a soft "hmm" twice.

He asked, "Shi Sui, could you consider the idea of ​​pretending to be a couple that I mentioned last night?"

Shi Sui tilted her head, considering it.

Xu Chaomu looked down at her: "You don't have anyone you like, and neither do I. No one is more suitable to play your boyfriend than me."

His voice was soft, yet very persuasive.

Shi Sui has finished considering this.

"Feelings are a very serious matter; you can't act them out." She looked away and said seriously, "Besides, I'm not good at acting, and I can't lie to you."

Xu Chaomu gazed thoughtfully at her slightly turned face.

Shi Sui didn't say anything, but silently gave herself a thumbs up for her composure.

Fortunately, Xu Chaomu didn't say anything more; she almost couldn't hold back and agreed.

After a while, Shi Sui said, "Shall we go back?"

"Wait." Xu Chaomu's gaze suddenly fixed on a certain spot, as if she had seen something interesting, and a very faint smile appeared on her lips.

Shi Sui: "?"

Xu Chaomu looked back at her: "You just said you wanted to thank me because I helped you delete the surveillance footage."

"Oh, right, I almost forgot," Shi Sui asked, "Xu Chaomu, is there anything you want?"

"Give me a hug, Shi Sui."

Although he preferred kissing to hugging, he thought kissing on the cheek or forehead was a bit too much.

But he knew he couldn't go too far at first.

Shi Sui: Just one hug? That's too easy. She could hug a hundred times (not really).

She opened her arms and hugged her warmly with a snap, adding the caption, "I'm here to hug you!"

Give me a hug.

She thought it would only be for a moment, a brief separation.

Unexpectedly, the boy hugged her waist instead, his refreshing and pleasant scent overwhelming her, making it impossible to escape.

Shi Sui's mind went blank for a moment, but she quickly accepted her friend's hug.

So, while I was momentarily stunned, I didn't notice the rapid footsteps behind me, crunching loudly on the snow.

"Shi Sui".

A voice rang out from behind her. Before she could turn around or even identify who it was, another pair of hands grabbed her waist and forcefully pulled her away.

Shi Sui staggered back two steps, the extra hands still gripping her waist. She looked up.

Pool banquet.

The boy's eyes were pitch black, his gaze extremely cold and aggressive, as if staring at someone for more than two seconds would kill them.

However, his gaze wasn't on her, but on Xu Chaomu.

Opposite him, Xu Chaomu had a faint smile on his lips, hiding a very subtle and cold provocation.

Silence fell all around. Shi Sui couldn't understand why they weren't talking and were just staring at her. Wasn't it awkward to stare for so long? Wouldn't that lead to feelings developing?

Shi Sui didn't know if her feelings would be discovered; all she knew was that she felt guilty.

I called Chi Yan this morning, and she said she was sleeping alone in a hotel and asked him to take pictures for her.

Now, the person has already left the hotel, their phone is on silent, and they haven't looked at a single photo.

She's such a big liar.

The atmosphere was tense and desperately needed to be eased, so Shi Sui made a quick decision and opened her arms: "Chi Yan, let me hug you too!"

Chi Yan, who was glaring at someone with murderous intent and whose mind was in complete chaos, suddenly froze, his dark eyes softening.

An involuntary smile appeared on his lips, dispelling the resentment and anger that filled him.

He looked down at Shi Sui.

She gave me a quick hug and then immediately pulled away, her eyes clear and innocent, so incredibly well-behaved.

Damn it!!! Am I being too indulgent by just forgiving her like this? Am I being too lenient? It's so pathetic of me to just spoil her!

Shi Sui breathed a sigh of relief when she saw his eyes gradually calm down. She was really great; she eased the tension!

But the moment the atmosphere eased, Xu Chaomu spoke softly: "Shi Sui, I had a bit of a cold when I woke up this morning. But after spending the day with you, my cold is all better."

Shi Sui paused, feeling a little guilty: "Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't even notice you had a cold..."

Meanwhile, Chi Yan was teetering on the brink of Earth's destruction: "You guys stayed there for a whole day!?"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Shi Sui's sixth sense told her that this was not a place to stay, so she immediately ran away: "I remembered that there is something I haven't done yet, so I will go back to the hotel first. You guys talk."

Like a rabbit in the snow, it escapes so fast that you can't stop it.

Chi Yan withdrew his gaze and coldly glanced at Xu Chaomu.

Damn, he really wanted to punch someone, but when he thought about how if he actually beat up Xu Chaomu, that guy would definitely tell Shi Sui on him, and then Shi Sui would feel sorry for him and put medicine on him or something. Wouldn't that just be creating an opportunity for them?

He didn't want to talk to the mistress, so he turned and left, noticing a telephone pole in the distance.

He walked over silently and started kicking the telephone pole.

*

Shi Sui ran to the hotel in one breath, opening her phone and opening WeChat as she ran. Her chat history with Chi Yan was filled with photos.

Ugh! He sent so many photos, and she didn't reply to a single one!

I didn't have time to examine the photos closely, so I'll just praise them first.

Wow, this scenery is absolutely gorgeous! But the main thing is how good the photographer is at taking pictures!

[It looks so good! The angle and lighting are perfect!]

……

Chi Yan, who was kicking a telephone pole, heard a special notification sound on his phone. He stopped kicking, took out his phone, and scrolled through it.

He saw the message Shi Sui sent him.

What was she praising? She was praising the scenery the whole time. Didn't she see his incredibly handsome face?

Wow, it really feels like a human-machine interface.

Chi Yan turned off his phone. He had a temper too, and planned to ignore her for ten minutes, oh no, five minutes, fine, he'd count to three before replying.

So I opened my phone again, and just as I was about to reply to the message, I heard footsteps approaching behind me. I turned around and was slightly stunned.

The girl ran towards him through the snow, her fair cheeks rosy, half her face hidden in a fluffy scarf, every strand of hair dancing, her whole body glowing, as if she had stepped out of a comic book.

Shi Sui came to find him.

He just said she was a bot and that he deserved to die.

An indescribable flutter filled his heart, his fingertips tightened, and Chi Yan stood in front of the telephone pole, watching her run closer and closer.

Shi Sui, panting, stopped in front of him: "Chi Yan, don't... don't damage public property, don't kick the telephone pole."
