Chapter 56 - Chocolate
Su Yize looked at Xing Jiuan, whose face had suddenly darkened. He felt that Little Senior Sister seemed to have a lot of secrets.
"Jiuan, it"s already very late. Let us send you back, alright?" Huo Jun stepped forward to say.
He looked nervous, as if he was afraid of rejection.
Huo Xiaoxiao looked at them curiously. However, she knew that now was not the time for her to interrupt.
Even her parents were shocked by the development before them.
"Someone will be here to pick me up soon."
Hearing this voice, Su Yize suddenly realized something; his little senior sister was usually easy to get along with, but if she was being like this, he wouldn"t dare to get close to her.
The wind tonight was a little strong and it was a little cold. When Xing Jiuan came out, she was only wearing a thin jacket. She was too skinny and her lips were a little pale, which made one worried that she would catch a cold.
Huo Jinyuan took off his jacket. He wanted to let Xing Jiuan wear it to block the cold.
Su Yize knew how to read between the lines. He realized that his little senior sister didn"t like the three people in front of him. If she rejected this man, he would be embarra.s.sed. Therefore, he took off his jacket instead.
It wasn"t easy to take it off while holding on to their snacks, but he still managed to do so quickly. "Little Senior Sister, you can wear my jacket. I"m hot-blooded and not afraid of the cold."
He was wearing only a short-sleeved s.h.i.+rt underneath, but he didn"t feel cold even if he took the jacket off.
Xing Jiuan looked up at him and said, "I"m not cold. Put it on."
Su Yize answered obediently, "Okay."
Two cars arrived almost one after another. It was Mu Qing and Lu Zhichen.
Mu Qing glanced at Lu Zhichen and walked briskly to Xing Jiuan, helping her put on the jacket he had brought for her.
"Let"s go home," he said.
When Xing Jiuan was in front of Mu Qing, the coldness around her melted, and she became soft and obedient.
She looked at Lu Zhichen, who was walking over.
Lu Zhichen had also rushed over after hearing the news. When he saw Xing Jiuan looking over, he smiled. "It"s late. Head back and rest early."
Xing Jiuan walked over and gave him a few chocolates.
Lu Zhichen seemed to be shocked as he took them in surprise. "Thank you, 21st."
Xing Jiuan felt a little uncomfortable.
She was still confused as to why she would do such a thing.
"You should go back," she said.
"Yes, I"ll go back after you have."
Xing Jiuan looked at the bluish-black color under his eyes and turned to look at Mu Qing.
Mu Qing had been looking at her parents before turning to Xing Jiuan and Lu Zhichen. He didn"t know which gave him a headache more.
After discovering that Xing Jiuan had given Lu Zhichen chocolates, he realized that Lu Zhichen was indeed the one who gave him a bigger headache.
This was a habit that Lu Zhichen had raised Xing Jiuan to have when she was young.
Every time Xing Jiuan had chocolates in her pocket, she would always give him some.
There was no exception.
He didn"t expect that after not seeing him for so long, Xing Jiuan would still do such a thing, especially when she was completely unfamiliar with Lu Zhichen now.
Lu Zhichen noticed that Mu Qing was staring at him and smiled, causing Mu Qing to feel that he was up to no good.
He was definitely up to no good!
This person had been very scheming since he was young. He had even coaxed the five-year-old Xing Jiuan to become his fiancée. They had even exchanged their token of love.
"Sister Xing…" Huo Xiaoxiao wanted to call her name, but after seeing her parents" actions, she wasn"t sure of Xing Jiuan"s ident.i.ty anymore and didn"t know if she should call her "Sister."
However, Xing Jiuan still asked her gently what was wrong.
"Can I play with you in the future?"
Xing Jiuan naturally didn"t want to have anything to do with the Huo family.. However, seeing how expectant the young lady was, she couldn"t bring herself to say no.
