Chapter 1452: You Are My Little Love Song (19)
s.h.i.+ Niange caught his gaze and seemed to realize something. Her face heated up and she quickly retracted her hand.
“I’m talking about those people earlier. Are they here to cause trouble for you? They’re all holding onto their weapons.” s.h.i.+ Niange glanced behind him as she spoke and found that those people were still not chasing after her.
Eh? Strange, weren’t they looking for trouble?
“Which eye of yours saw those people looking for me?” Qin Siting retracted his hand that had been released by her. With one hand in his pocket, he watched her with clear eyes.
“I saw that they were walking toward you. And the moment you came out, they surrounded you…”
“I just happened to walk out. We were just pa.s.sing by each other.” Qin Siting was expressionless. Right now, he was standing on the side of the road. He was much taller than her, and was looking down at her from above. Seeing that she was sweating slightly from just a few steps, he narrowed his eyes, as though something had suddenly appeared in the night sky and blocked the original starlight. “Even if you really came to look for me, why did you suddenly run over?”
s.h.i.+ Niange was speechless.
She wanted to protect him?
… It seemed like she was overestimating her own abilities and was even mocked for reading too many novels and television dramas. Did she think that a young lady like her could handle any situation?
But why did she rush over?
Right now, if she were to say that it was because he was handsome, what she would receive would not be the occasional interaction between his deskmates. She would likely be treated coldly again. After all, even she felt that she was too rash.
Besides, he was a man. What right did she have to protect him?
She did not speak and just stood there looking at him. Because he was tall, she had to raise her head to look at him. The sunlight shone behind him. Although the boy was standing with his back to the light, it was not completely unclear. At least she could see his eyes. In the reflection, she seemed to be there.
“Did you consider whether you would be injured?” Qin Siting asked.
s.h.i.+ Niange didn’t know how to explain and decided not to. “I didn’t think too much about it just now.”
“You didn’t consider it?” Qin Siting’s eyes were clear and cold. “Miss s.h.i.+, if you have an accident due to me and were injured and disfigured, would your parents give up?”
“…You know I’m from the s.h.i.+ family. I thought you didn’t know anything about me.”
Qin Siting was indifferent. “When you sat next to me and introduced yourself, I could hear you.”
“But you didn’t respond to what I said to you. So, you could hear it.” s.h.i.+ Niange looked at him directly. Her eyes were bright and her gaze was pure. To put it simply, she was reminding him how sincere she was when she sat beside him. To put it bluntly, she was indirectly scolding him for pretending to be deaf.
Qin Siting glanced at her again and turned to leave without saying anything.
“You’re leaving just like that?”
He stopped and turned back to look at her. “Otherwise?”
“I mean, I saved you just now.”
Qin Siting’s indifferent eyes moved slightly, but he still appeared indifferent. The little change in expression on his face was clearly because of her words about saving him.
“I mean, just now, I risked my life to save you because we were deskmates. No matter if it was a misunderstanding, my heart is good. You can’t be so cold. You have to give me a response.”
Qin Siting looked at her silently for a while, as though he could not understand her thoughts. However, at this moment, there was already a commotion outside the school gates. It was clear that the people inside had already started fighting.
This made it even more certain that s.h.i.+ Niange had misunderstood. That group of people had only wanted to take advantage of the fact that there were no security guards or the old man in the mailroom at the end of the evening to break in and fight. Coincidentally, Qin Siting had come out at that time.
s.h.i.+ Niange took advantage of the chaos to approach him. Looking at the man who was taller than her, she raised her hand and gently tugged on his sleeve.
Qin Siting was already used to her pulling up her sleeves. Even if he didn’t accept it, they still had been deskmates for three weeks. His gaze s.h.i.+fted an inch.
s.h.i.+ Niange saw that he did not turn around to leave immediately, but at least he would pay attention to her. Even if he did not speak, he would not pretend that she did not exist like he did in the beginning. s.h.i.+ Niange smiled at him. “Usually, there will be a chauffeur to pick me up at this time. My chauffeur, Uncle Qin, is on leave today. It’s not interesting for me to go back alone. We’ve been tablemates for quite some time. Why don’t we take this opportunity to have a meal together?” Cough, cough. She could only ask Uncle Qin to take the blame for her.
Qin Siting’s expression did not change. He calmly glanced at her and listened as she continued to find excuses.
“Actually, my parents are both busy with work abroad. I’m the only one staying in Hai City, so I’m staying near the school. Zhao Xiaoqing left today, but I haven’t eaten…”
Qin Siting looked at her and suddenly smiled. At the moment when s.h.i.+ Niange was confused by his smile, his warm smile turned into a cold smile. Then, he indifferently retracted his smile and took his sleeve out of her hand without any mercy. He stuffed one hand back into his pocket and left with his shoulder bag in the other. s.h.i.+ Niange stood behind him and looked at him. She sighed. She knew that eating was impossible. What was wrong with her mind just now? Even if it was just a suggestion, it was fine. How could he… agree to something like eating?
Just as s.h.i.+ Niange stood dejectedly on the spot and did not chase after him, and was considering whether she should go out for dinner or go back to Lishui Villa, Qin Siting, who had already walked more than ten steps away, suddenly stopped in front of her.
The car that even s.h.i.+ Niange found familiar was the one she had seen the last time… when she had bought the medicine for cholecyst.i.tis.
The car had stopped in front of Qin Siting. He did not even take a second glance before turning back. When he turned back, he saw that s.h.i.+ Niange was still standing there with her eyes wide open, looking at him blankly. She was actually considering where to eat, whether to eat something sweet, something salty, or something spicy. s.h.i.+ Niange had yet to pull back from her thoughts when the tall and thin boy approached quickly. He stepped forward and abruptly grabbed her wrist, turning around to take her away in the opposite direction of the school.
s.h.i.+ Niange was stunned. She had yet to recover from her shock. She looked at the person who had returned and then lowered her head to look at her wrist. Even though it was only her wrist, she could still feel the warmth from his palm. It was so real that s.h.i.+ Niange’s face was instantly filled with question marks and exclamation marks. “???!!”
