”My heart hurts!” The man tried to think of the right words to persuade her. But all the words went through his mind, and the last thing he said was, He didn't even think of it.
Shen Liangxia blinked and the little girl looked at him lovingly. ”Xiao Yan's enthusiasm — —” The word trembled a few times as her captivating voice entered into her heart through her ears. It circled around her heart, until even the bones of the man became soft, and her ears became even redder.
”Hmm?” He lowered his head and quietly reached out his hand, gently touching the girl's finger on the seat. The girl did not move away, but the man took the opportunity to grab her hand, it was so soft and warm, it was obviously not the first time he was holding her hand. The old man's hand was still wet with sweat, it felt like it was being electrocuted, the man felt his hand go numb. Beads of sweat had begun to form on the tip of his nose. His expression turned even colder.
An awkward and pretentious old man.
The corners of Shen Liang Xia's mouth curled up as he cursed silently. He turned to look out of the window, only to see a few beads of sweat dripping down from the man's nose.
The car was silent for a moment. The driver in the front peeked in the rearview mirror, but he didn't expect to meet the man's cold eyes. He quickly retracted his gaze and concentrated on driving.
”I'll pick you up tonight.” Xiao Bu Dian was very stubborn.
Shen Liangxia turned her head to look at him and did not blindly agree, ”Let's see first. I have a lot of things to do today.”
She hadn't been back for days. She was going on holiday with the class director, and the afternoon class was full. Then it was time for her to wash her clothes and stuff. The most important thing was that she wanted to have a good rest. She lay quietly on her bed and slept. These days, even though the men had helped her to bear a lot of burden, she still felt tired, both physically and mentally.
”You've been busy these past few days, it's time for you to have a good rest.” Shen Liangxia complained about her despicable nature in her heart. She had obviously thought of this at a later time, yet she shamelessly used it as an excuse.
The man didn't know what she was thinking about. Hearing her say this, he couldn't help but turn his head. His deep gaze was filled with joy and sweetness.
”You also feel sorry for me, right?” His voice was not loud, and when he said those words, the redness in his ears had already spread to his face.
”Uncle Xiao — —” Shen Liangxia helplessly opened her mouth: ”How can I endure such pure emotions from you!”
Shen Liangxia didn't admit her heartache. When she got off the car, it was rare for her to take the initiative to give a man a kiss.
The girl's soft lips were like jelly as they suddenly stuck to his, causing something in the old man's mind to suddenly explode. He completely forgot about his reaction, and when he came back to his senses, the four lips had already parted. Shen Liangxia was holding a lunchbox as she waved at him from the school gate.
As she watched Shen Liangxia enter the campus, the sweetness in her heart suddenly turned into sadness as she walked amongst a group of university students who were just as beautiful as her.
When he was old, even Shen Liangxia's grandma despised him. Then what about Shen Liangxia, did that little girl also despise him?
For the first time, Xiao realized that the success he was so proud of had suddenly become another characteristic of his old age.
”Drive back to the company.”
The face was ice again.
Since they were both students, it was rare for them to improve their food. Even though Shen Liangxia only brought back a few dishes, their cooking skills were indeed excellent. The food was delicious for the several people in the room. They had planned to stay until nightfall to eat together, but in the end, they couldn't hold it in any longer and were annihilated.
The sisters ate and drank until they were full before they started gossiping, only then did they find out about Shen Liangxia's leave of absence, since Shen Liangxia never mentioned her hometown, so they didn't ask too much, just asked one question and settled the matter, once they received a definite answer, they wouldn't say anything anymore. Asking about how it felt to eat too much ice cream, Shen Liangxia was so angry that she took a pillow and threw it at them.
A few of them began to interrogate Shen Liangxia about the recent storm that she had created, ”Many people in the school have heard about the incident where you were carried away by someone at the school gate. What exactly happened?”
The first one to ask was Second Brother in the dorm, one of the people whose family lived in the city, the other one was Third Brother in the city, the two of them occupied a place in the dorm, paid money, and lived here when they didn't like to go home, the other one was the girl from the province, the older brother was that girl, the few people in the dorm couldn't be considered to be that close, but they could still be considered not bad, they could all think of the other three when they had food and drinks with each other.
As such, the interaction between the members of this dorm could be considered harmonious.
Shen Liangxia attributed this kind of harmony to the fact that the few people in the dorm room didn't get along from day to night, so there weren't too many reasons for them to have a good relationship. She had seen the rooms next door all slept in, and when they were intimate, they would hug each other's shoulders and wish that they could become good people.
”Nothing, I just had a fight with my boyfriend.” At this moment, there was no need for him to hide anything. Many times, it was like this, the more you hid something hidden, the more others would want to investigate. On the contrary, if you said it out loud, then those people's curiosity wouldn't be as strong.
”What you said was actually true. No wonder South City has been making a ruckus downstairs these past two days. It was only after the class director told him that you weren't at school that he calmed down a bit.”
The Boss was a bit worried, but Shen Liangxia waved it off and said, ”Who cares, if he wants to cause trouble, he can go and make a ruckus. I've said what I should say, what else can I do?”
Shen Liangxia thought for a moment and realized that her uncle was also being shameless. As for why she was tired of one and why he was able to force her to nod in agreement, she blamed this kind of result on her weak and cowardly nature.
