Chapter 119 Xi Ruan’s Trap


Chapter 119 Xi Ruan’s Trap

The afternoon sun shone in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the tall chair backs cast a little shadow for the two of them, shrouding them in it.

On the soft seat, the young man's eyebrows were slightly lowered, and he stared at the girl in his arms without any deviation. He put one hand on her shoulders and the other on her waist, and the movements were natural as if he had done it thousands of times. The girl in front of him sat sideways on his lap, hugging his neck, her moist eyes filled with starlight, as if she could only hold him in her eyes at this time.

Chengfeng, who was single since birth, saw the young couple looking so intimate and loving each other, his face turned red, he silently closed the door and went out.

The moment he closed the door, Chengfeng was still sighing: It’s so irritating to compare people to each other! Some people have girlfriends who are like gods at a young age! And he! ? Almost thirty! I haven’t even touched a girl’s little hand! ! He must be jealous of Yingcai!

God is jealous of talents! ! !

——

The computer speakers were still playing the sound of everyone discussing in the meeting. As the door closed, Jiang Lingsi suddenly came back to his senses and raised his hand to wrap Xi Ruan around him. Release your arm and take it off.

"How did you know I was here?" He asked in a deep voice, but there was no blame in his tone.

"I guess~" the girl said in a brisk tone, bending her eyes and pretending not to care about the resistance in his movements. She tilted her head and leaned on his shoulder again, "And I'm here to negotiate the contract, so I'll take a look. I won’t suffer any loss, if you are not here I will go home to find you.”

She blinked her watery eyes, swayed her dangling calves, and her eyes were filled with the young man in front of her.

Jiang Lingsi felt that his whole body was stiff because of the person in his arms, and he didn't even know where to put his hands.

He glanced at the girl's fair face and saw that she looked as if nothing had happened. She was even closer to him than before, and he couldn't help but have a headache.

"You get up first, don't sit on my lap."

"But I'm tired from walking, and I want to sit down for a while." Xi Ruan forced herself to lean on him shamelessly, nervously Grab his clothes.

Actually, she was afraid that Jiang Lingsi would push her down directly, but she wanted to confirm his true attitude towards her and how far he could accept the distance between them. After all, everything before was her own. Speculation.

She stared at Jiang Lingsi closely, and when she saw that the young man did not show any disgust, her heart that had been hanging around finally settled down.

Jiang Lingsi didn't know what Xi Ruan meant by being like this now, and he didn't dare to be too rude to her. He could only look at the opposite side helplessly, raised his chin slightly and said, "Sit on the sofa when you are tired."

Xi Ruan turned his head and glanced, then shook his head, "No, it's so far over there, I want to be closer to you."

After saying that, the little girl smiled softly, and then stared intently. She looked at him as if she was afraid he would run away.

Jiang Lingsi was speechless for a moment. His deep eyes scanned the girl on his body carefully, and his fingers unconsciously clenched the armrest.

"I'll ask someone to bring a chair over. You go down first."

"Then I'll go down when the chair comes."

"Don't make trouble, get down."

"Just sit down for a moment, I've really been gone for a long time."

The little girl tugged at his clothes pitifully, with a pair of watery deer eyes that made it impossible to refuse.

If possible, Jiang Lingsi would like to hang her on his leg, but unfortunately this can only be his delusion.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his dark phoenix eyes had returned to their usual sharpness.

"Xi Ruan." He called her coldly, as if he couldn't bear it anymore, and said cruel words, "Why don't you still understand?! I said it was impossible for us..."

"I understand!" Xi Ruan interrupted him loudly, raising his head and looking directly at him.

Jiang Lingsi was stunned by her expressionless look, but his heart sank when he touched her eyes.

He couldn't describe the look in his eyes.

Those clear deer eyes were so calm that they seemed to be unable to make any waves, with unprecedented seriousness and solemnity. However, there was a deep undercurrent hidden in the eyes, as if sadness was slowly surging and breaking. He must be unable to say the next words.

Jiang Lingsi understood that no matter whether she really liked him or not, she was the one who was hurt time and time again.

She was the one who mustered up the courage to confess to him on the day she won the championship, but he pretended to be stupid and broke the contract and rejected her;

It was her who cried and woke up at his door and asked for confirmation but was ruthlessly rejected again;

Even now, she is still the one who takes the initiative to come to him, putting aside everything that happened before.

He has his pride, and she doesn't have hers.

However, thinking of his brother and the high debt behind him, he couldn't say "I like you" out loud no matter what.

He cannot drag her into his quagmire.

Jiang Lingsi felt like there was a lump in his throat at this moment, and his heart was sour and embarrassed by her eyes.

However, before he could say anything, the little girl's eyes suddenly changed, her eyebrows curved and she leaned into his arms again, and her calves swayed again, just like what he had just seen. For a moment it was just his illusion.

"Actually, I have figured it out in the past two days, and I agree with what you said last time." Xi Ruan lowered his head and looked down at his fingers.

“As you said, I really haven’t been in contact with many boys, so I may not be able to distinguish between love and friendship.

Whether I was a child or when I grew up, you have always protected me. Me, my feelings for you are indeed filled with gratitude, and you are so kind to me and always by my side. I am used to your presence, and over time I may have misunderstood that I like you.”
< br>Xi Ruan spoke softly, with a faint smile on his lips.

Jiang Lingsi felt his heart beat suddenly, his chest felt like he had been stabbed hard by an ice pick, and all the blood in his body was stagnant or even flowing backwards.

Xi Ruan, as if he didn't realize anything, looked up at the young man's smooth jawline and said in a relaxed tone: "So, Jiang Xiaoshu, let's just be friends first!

As we promised when we were young, we will always be best friends and never separate, okay?"

After saying that, Xi Ruan raised a hand, stretched out his little finger and raised it to Jiang Lingsi's eyes, smiling brightly? , "Hook~"

Jiang Lingsi's long eyelashes trembled, and his thick black eyelashes slowly drew an arc, silently looking at the girl's slender and slightly curved fingers.

This feels fucked.

Obviously this was one of the results he expected, but when he really heard her say this, he was not happy at all, and even felt like he had been abandoned easily.

Jiang Lingsi couldn't help but laugh at himself.

As expected, things have turned around. He has rejected countless confessions from others, including hers. Now it is finally time for him to get his retribution.

But who can you blame for what you did?

He chuckled, with a sarcastic arc at the end of his eyes, and then hooked her finger nonchalantly, his dark eyes meeting hers, "Well, hook up."

Xi Ruan spread her pink lips, shook her hands, and said in a sweet voice: "Pull the hook, hang yourself, and it won't change for a hundred years. The two of us will never be separated."

She said with a smile Childish nursery rhyme, the other hand grabbed his thumb and stamped it with him forcefully.

"Okay! It's sealed! Whoever goes back on his word is a puppy!" Xi Ruan clapped his hands, his eyes bright.

Jiang Lingsi raised his lips and smiled, forcing himself to return to his usual state, and joked: "What's the point of a puppy? Whoever regrets it is the dumpling."

As expected, Xi Ruan immediately became angry when he heard this, She tugged at his clothes and said, "Jiang Xiaoshu! What do you mean!? Are you saying that I am worse than a puppy!?"

"Oh - so you know you are a dumpling." Jiang Lingsi came closer to her, admired her cute little expression, and grabbed her cheek as usual, then patted her back, "Okay, get up quickly. Someone will come in and see you soon. It's time to misunderstand."

Jiang Lingsi felt that everything was made clear now, and she should go down this time. Unexpectedly, the little girl in his arms blinked innocently and in confusion, and then put her arms around his waist. , puzzled: "But we are best friends, why should I go down?"

Jiang Lingsi's eyes widened in shock: "???"

What the hell? ! Just go down because we are friends!

Xi Ruan didn’t care what Jiang Lingsi thought, and continued: “Aren’t we always like this?

And you also said that we were often very close when we were children.

Before, you regarded me as a friend, and you would hug me and kiss me, and let me sleep in your arms. Now we are hooking up again, and our relationship has gone further. I just want to sit on your lap, but you are stingy. Are you refusing to give way?”

“……”

Jiang Lingsi stared at Xi Ruan, who looked confused and confident, and was speechless for a moment, let alone... refute? ?

Because once he refuted it, it would be equivalent to asking him to admit that he did that to her because he liked her.

Jiang Lingsi had a splitting headache. At this time, he actually wanted to go to a well-known Q&A community to ask questions:

Urgent! What should I do if the relationship between him and the little girl fell into a vicious circle because of his misleading! ?

Xi Ruan, who was nestled in his arms, looked at Jiang Lingsi with his eyes closed and stroking his forehead. He lowered his head slightly and curled up a meaningful smile on his lips. The system that has been watching silently: It is indeed the mission target! ! !
