Ming Shu didn’t know what Xia Fu told Xia Yin. When he came in, she was lying lazily on the sofa and flipping through a book.
Xia Fu was holding on to some unhappiness. He sat beside Ming Shu and kissed her. That made him feel slightly better.
“Cla.s.smate Xia Fu, are you addicted to kissing?”
“You didn’t reject me.”
Xia Fu replied blatantly.
After that, he just looked sideways and stared at the floor. Ming Shu teased him, but he didn’t retaliate at all. He seemed to be deep in thought and looked a bit pitiful.
After a long time, Xia Fu finally spoke. “Since I was young, my path has been planned out by Xia Yin. What I should do, how I should live, who I should meet, what stage I should achieve… he planned out everything.”
He took a deep breath. “I am very tired. However, I don’t want the person who will accompany me for the rest of my life to be someone chosen by him too.”
“I am not a person,” Ming Shu cut in.
The atmosphere that Xia Fu created was immediately broken.
What the h.e.l.l, I am acting pitiful and you have to tease me too!
Do you have any compa.s.sion!
I don’t care!
Xia Fu moved forward and hugged Ming Shu. He placed his head on her shoulder. “Wei Xi, I like you so much. When will you like me a little in return?”
“Wait until you like me.”
Xia Fu was stunned. What does she mean?
“I like you now.” Xia Fu gritted his teeth.
“Maybe,” Ming Shu replied after a moment and broke away from Xia Fu’s embrace. She got up and went into her room.
She closed the door, looked around at the room, and smiled. “You are still far away.”
The “like” that she meant was different from the “like” he said.
…
Lai Si seemed to be planning something. He didn’t trouble Ming Shu.
Besides studying every day, Ming Shu and Xia Fu would chatter about the issue of “like you or not.” When Ming Shu got irritated, she would beat him up.
Xia Fu had no choice. He could only continue to like her after she angered him.
“Xiao Xi, there’s a movie screening today, do you want to watch?” Yuan Xi turned around and lay on Ming Shu’s table, asking her with antic.i.p.ation.
“She’s not going.” Before Ming Shu could reply, Xia Fu rejected Yuan Xi.
“You are not Xia Fu.” It might be because Ming Shu could subdue Xia Fu that Yuan Xi was not very scared of him. She rolled her eyes and continued to look at Ming Shu with hopeful eyes. “Come on, Xiao Xi, I bought the tickets already. The reviews for the movie are very good.”
Ming Shu was half awake. “What movie?”
“Sci-Fi…”
“Not going.” She wanted to sleep. She might have reached her hibernation period.
“Xiao Xi.” Yuan Xi frowned. “If you don’t go and I go alone, what would happen if I got caught by a vampire?”
“Go go go.” Her little snack couldn’t be taken by other people.
Yuan Xi laughed happily and turned back to do her homework.
Xia Fu was unable to continue with his. He couldn’t seem to answer any of the questions on it.
She was going to watch a movie with someone.
She! Was! Going! To! Watch! A Movie! With! Someone!
Watch! Movie!
Isn’t this something only couples would do?
How dare she watch a movie with someone.
Xia Fu felt irritated and took out his cellphone. He opened an app and checked the movies that were screening recently.
“Hey.” Xia Fu poked Ming Shu. He popped his head over. “Watch with me.”
“I promised my little snack already.”
“I will give you ten bags of blood.”
Ming Shu wavered.
Although she had a lot of food now, it wouldn’t last her for long. She needed to stock up on food.
“I’m not that kind of person.” I will not give my little snack up for ten bags of blood.
“Twenty.” Xia Fu continued to add on.
“It’s not good to break promises.”
“Thirty.”
“I will watch with you after I finish the movie with my little snack.”
Her little snack won against Xia Fu.
Your little snack didn’t give you anything and even asked you to be her bodyguard! Do you like her that much!
What should I do when my rival is a girl!
So angry.
Xia Fu comforted himself. At least she agreed and didn’t reject him immediately.
Ming Shu agreed to accompany her little snack, but when she reached the movie theater, her opportunity was s.n.a.t.c.hed by Si Luo.
Ming Shu was so angry she almost fought with Si Luo in the movie theater. In the end, Yuan Xi chose Si Luo and abandoned Ming Shu.
From Ming Shu’s perspective, Yuan Xi was coerced by Si Luo.
Ming Shu stood in the crowded lobby and started watching the trailers that were showing.
Someone suddenly took her hand. It was very warm. “Let’s go.”
“You did that on purpose, right?” Si Luo wasn’t in cla.s.s today, so how would he know that Yuan Xi asked her to watch a movie?
Xia Fu looked straight ahead. “I was within your sight the whole time. When do you think I leaked the news to Si Luo?”
“Restroom.”
“I didn’t bring my cellphone.”
“You don’t need to contact him personally.”
Xia Fu was helpless. What could he do? She was his mission and he could only control himself!
“What can I do to make you believe me?”
“I will not believe you.”
Xia Fu wanted to throw the tickets at Ming Shu’s face. Just do what you like. I’m not going to pander to you anymore.
“I just want to watch a movie with you.” Xia Fu softened his tone and changed the topic.
“Fifty.”
Ming Shu brought up the price.
Xia Fu showed a cold expression. I want to slap her to death.
“Okay.”
The theater was very dark. Xia Fu held Ming Shu’s hand instinctively, afraid that she would trip. There were a lot of people in the theater. It was almost full.
The movie started. Ming Shu wasn’t interested at all and slept on her chair.
She couldn’t even remember the name of the movie.
Xia Fu was anxious. He stared at Ming Shu. What else does she like besides eating?
He saw that Ming Shu was falling asleep. He convinced himself with some effort that he was letting her lean on him because of the mission.
Xia Fu hugged Ming Shu and watched the movie. There was a couple in front of him too. They would occasionally whisper to each other and exchanged a kiss when the lights were dim.
Xia Fu: “…”
Jealousy caused him to take out his knife.
The couple in front suddenly felt chilled. They suspected that the air conditioning was on too high and hugged each other tighter.
Xia Fu got even angrier.
The movie ended and the lights came back on. Xia Fu instinctively held out his hand and placed it in front of Ming Shu’s eyes.
Ming Shu woke up after a moment and yawned. “It finally ended. Let’s go home and eat.”
She spoke quietly, but Xia Fu felt his heart soften when he heard her say “go home.”
Nevermind. Let’s not make a fuss about the fact that she fell asleep while watching the movie.
Ming Shu was on a live broadcast before. When she went out, a few people recognized her and rushed toward her.
“Are you the shameless woman that accused our Yi Jing?”
“You’re so ugly. How dare you accuse our master. Who gave you the courage to do that.”
“Beat her to death.”
“Revenge for our master!”
These people declared her guilty by themselves and didn’t listen to what Ming Shu had to say. Hence, Ming Shu didn’t hold back and subdued all of them and exchanged them for food.
Ming Shu learned a new trick. After this episode, Xia Fu would always see her going to crowded places whenever she was free only to return with a pile of food.
Xia Fu: “…”
Why didn’t your people kill you?
If I knew a human that was like this too… I don’t think I can do anything.
She was the queen, after all.
