Chapter 263: He Liked Her, Right? Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Mu Xiaoxiao looked a little awkward. “He didn"t confess to me…”
She felt a little down as she thought about this.
That jerk had stolen a kiss secretly but hadn"t told her in no uncertain terms that he liked her.
He had been teasing her a little now and then recently, and the atmosphere between them had been quite charged. However, neither of them had gone beyond that.
Han Qiqing exclaimed in surprise, “He hasn"t confessed? Is it because you"re already engaged? Is that why he thinks it"s okay to skip this step? How could he!”
“No, that"s not it!” Mu Xiaoxiao was a little frustrated. She didn"t know how to explain her tricky relations.h.i.+p with Yin Shaojie.
“Anyway, our relations.h.i.+p isn"t like what you think. It"s still like before — we"re each other"s really good friends.”
Really good childhood friends.
Not a romantic couple.
Mu Xiaoxiao felt a little resentful as she thought about this.
She really didn"t know what Yin Shaojie was thinking.
He had stolen a secret kiss from her, which meant that he really liked her, right?
But why did he…
Upon hearing her words, Han Qiqing"s eyes widened in surprise. Tugging at her violently, she asked, “Aren"t you… dating? People who aren"t blind can clearly tell that you"re dating!”
“We aren"t, really…” Mu Xiaoxiao said a little crestfallenly.
Han Qiqing rubbed her chin and said, “At first, I"d thought that you still hadn"t realized it, but you told me in person at the hot spring villa that you liked him, which means that you"re not that dense regarding romantic feelings.”
Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned. “I-I told you that I liked him?! When did that happen!”
Han Qiqing was puzzled as well and replied, “Didn"t I ask you? It was that time at the hot spring villa where we took a soak in the hot spring. I asked, and you replied that you liked him. Don"t you remember?”
That was impossible, right? It had just happened last weekend. How could she have forgotten?
Han Qiqing clapped her palms together as realization dawned on her. “I know! Weren"t you drunk on that day? Maybe your memories blacked out after you woke up from being drunk and that"s why you can"t remember it.”
“That"s possible… But I don"t think I"d say that I liked him, though.”
Mu Xiaoxiao was a little confused.
She had only realized that she had felt differently towards Yin Shaojie after that day.
She hadn"t known that Yin Shaojie had stolen a secret kiss before she got drunk while in the hot spring. At that time, she was still ignorant of her feelings. How could she have said that she liked Yin Shaojie then?
“I get it now.” Mu Xiaoxiao didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. “I think I did say that, but it had a different meaning from what you thought it was.”
Now thoroughly confused by her, Han Qiqing asked, “How about now, then? Do you like Yin Shaojie, or not?”
“I…” Mu Xiaoxiao was shy. She felt that it was a little weird to confess to liking Yin Shaojie so suddenly.
“Hurry up and tell me! I"m going to die from the suspense!” Han Qiqing shook her arm.
Blus.h.i.+ng, Mu Xiaoxiao said, “About him, I-I…”
Just then, a few girls suddenly blocked their path.
“Mu Xiaoxiao, we have something to tell you!”
At first, Mu Xiaoxiao thought that they had come looking for trouble, but upon taking a closer look, she realized that they were not behaving arrogantly but a little cowardly.
The girls who spoke earlier also seemed as though they had to summon their courage to do so.
“What"s the matter?” she looked at them and asked uncomprehendingly.
