Chapter 146 You are just cowardly and greedy
Xi Ruan felt Jiang Lingsi's stiff body in front of him, and for a moment he felt that the air around him had solidified.
It’s over.
Why did she say it on impulse?
Jiang Xiaoshu had a heavy psychological burden and rejected her several times. She finally pretended that she didn't like him so that she could continue to stay by his side and get close to him as if nothing had happened.
But now she actually said it again...
Xi Ruan was buried in his arms and did not dare to look up, let alone look at his expression.
Jiang Lingsi looked down at the top of Xi Ruan's hair, his hands froze in the air, neither hugging her nor not hugging her, emotions surged in his dark phoenix eyes.
He recalled what Hoda said when chatting with him.
“Not to mention us, just grab anyone from our school and ask, who sees you two like this and doesn’t think you are a secret couple?”
"I told you that Xi Ruan just likes you. Everyone can see it. You have to say that she treats you as a friend."
"I am also her friend. Why haven't I seen her feeding me normally?" , throw yourself into my arms, hang on my neck?”
“Don’t tell me that you two have always been like this when you were young. You are used to it. If you really aren’t that special one, why haven’t you seen it until now? The second person who made her have this habit, or who can make her give up being close to you? "
"Jiang Lingsi, you can actually feel it, you can understand it, but you just don't dare. Expose yourself, you are cowardly and greedy.”
[You are cowardly and greedy. 】
Jiang Lingsi’s long eyelashes trembled.
The hand raised in the air finally fell down and gently hugged the person in his arms.
Yes, he is just cowardly and greedy.
He was afraid that he would have nothing, that he would become a burden to her, and that he would be abandoned by her.
But he is greedy for everything she gives him now, enjoying her attachment and closeness without satisfaction, and enjoying her love that she can't suppress at ordinary times.
It was obvious that he had deceived the little girl into confusing emotional boundaries. It was obvious that he knew that the behavior between them had long gone beyond the intimacy that friends should have, but he simply couldn't resist the temptation and took the initiative to cross the line again and again.
Jiang Lingsi hugged her shoulders tightly.
He's just an asshole.
The bastard who takes advantage of everything but dares not take responsibility...
Xi Ruan felt the hands on his shoulders tightening and tightened, grabbing his clothes nervously.
Jiang Xiaoshu this time... actually didn't push her away.
She quietly raised her head and quickly glanced at Jiang Lingsi's face with her big and smart eyes.
From her angle, she could almost only see his clear and smooth jawline. The boy lowered his eyebrows and his long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, making it difficult for her to distinguish him. mood.
But...
Feeling the warmth on his shoulders, Xi Ruan suddenly regained some confidence.
"Jiang Xiaoshu." She called softly.
“Yeah.”
He responded.
Xi Ruan's eyebrows arched unconsciously, she crushed the fabric of the clothes in her hands with her fingers, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Jiang Xiaoshu, I think I like you a little bit."
" Not the kind of friend, but the kind of liking for boys. "
"But, it may be that I got confused again, so until I can figure it out completely, we will still be the same as before. Is it just as good?"
She said these words carefully, as if she liked a rose very much and reached out her hand to touch it, but she was afraid of hurting him and being touched by him. Punctured by sharp thorns.
So she pretended that she didn't like it that much, just a little bit, still a little bit unsure.
She could only do this, let herself return to the circle that he could accept, watch him guard him, and take back her overturned feelings.
Xi Ruan waited quietly for Jiang Lingsi's reply. After a while, she heard him say "ok", and then he rubbed the hair on the back of her head.
Xi Ruan smiled.
She clenched her hands, raised her head from his arms, and bravely asked jokingly: "Jiang Xiaoshu, do you also like me a little but you are not sure?"
Her clear eyes stared at him closely.
She thought, it doesn’t matter even if he denies it again.
It doesn't matter if what he said made her feel sad.
At least, it was a big improvement today that he didn't push her away after she said she liked him.
Jiang Lingsi lowered his eyes and looked at her.
She is actually very understanding in front of him.
Those eyes said everything.
Enthusiasm yet concealing timidity, impulsive yet suppressed expectations.
He stretched out his hand to tuck the messy hair around her face behind her ears, and raised his rose-colored lips into a smile.
"Well, not sure."
After he finished speaking, he saw those beautiful eyes immediately filled with starlight. The little girl smiled like a flower and happily buried herself in his arms. .
"Then let's work together and try to figure it out as soon as possible!"
"Yes."
He hugged her tightly again, closed his eyes and gently rested his chin on The top of her hair.
Look, not only is he a jerk, he's a liar.
He had already figured it out.
From the first moment he saw her as a child, he knew that he liked this beautiful little girl.
——When he grows up, he will make her his bride.
——
The following days passed fairly smoothly.
Xi Ruan’s life is busy and fulfilling. He balances school and work, and often travels across the country.
Although he was really tired, Xi Ruan counted the money that would continue to accumulate in his account in the future and felt that it was worth the hard work.
Another monthly exam is over, and students are looking at the rankings in the corridor.
When they saw that Xi Ruan ranked first in the literary category on the popular list ahead, and also ranked first in other self-selected subjects, the crowd became excited again.
Even if she is not in school, she will never be missing from everyone's gossip topics.
"Xi Ruan is really awesome. Why would he do so well in the exam even if he didn't come to class?"
"So geniuses don't need to study, right! Compared to her, I'm really a loser. Ah! ! ”
“Don’t you think I’m working hard! Didn’t you spend all your spare time memorizing words in "Quanwu"?
"That's true! Hey! Speaking of which, have you all watched the Mid-Autumn Festival Party!?"
"Ouch! Look at it! Xi Ruan's jade rabbit shape is really amazing! As soon as she opened her mouth I knelt down on the spot! It sounded so good!”
It’s a siren! The voice was discussing Xi Ruan. Liu Yue was very irritable when she came back after reading her results. Unfortunately, she couldn't keep a slumped face in school.
She walked back to the art class and sat on her seat. After a while, several female classmates gathered around her.
"Liu Yue, Liu Yue, how did you do in the exam?" A girl with a round face asked, leaning on Liu Yue's desk.
Liu Yue spread her hands pretending to be helpless and shook her head, "What else can I do? It's not as good as ever."
A few girls covered their mouths and laughed when they saw this, He also said that he did not do well in the exam.
After chatting about their grades for a while, several girls winked at each other and suddenly the topic changed.
"Liu Yue, actually we want to ask..." A girl paused, seemed a little embarrassed, and poked the arm of the girl next to her.
The girl glanced at her with disgust and said directly: "Actually, we want to ask if you have much contact with Xi Ruan? Can you help us get a few TO signatures?"< br>
"Yes, I remember last time you said that you also went to participate in the program selection of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, so you should have met Xi Ruan. I feel like you can always meet, so if you have a chance, can you Can you get some autographs for us?”
“I really like her! Her singing of “Love in the Moon” at the party was so beautiful!”
Several pairs of expectant eyes looked over. Liu Yue's hand placed under the table was clenched tightly, and her nails dug into the palm of her hand until it hurt.
It’s Xi Ruan again!
Why is everyone only paying attention to her!
Obviously she is a star, why don’t they ask for her autograph!
Liu Yue took a deep breath, her face still cheerful and kind, and she promised: "Okay~ I will get it for you next time I meet her."
Several girls They immediately high-fived each other happily and thanked Liu Yue repeatedly.
Liu Yue originally thought that these annoying people should leave, but unexpectedly they sat aside and asked with curiosity on their faces, "Liu Yue, can you tell us about Xi Ruan?"< br>
“Yes, for example, what did she perform the last time you saw her?”
“And what style of private clothes does she usually wear?”
How many times? A girl asked chirpingly.
Liu Yue was so angry that she almost went crazy, especially when she thought about the last time she participated in the program selection, she almost bit her lip with jealousy.
Who would have thought that as soon as Xi Ruan opened her mouth, the director immediately decided to cast her.
And Xi Ruan was still pretending to be a good person on the stage and asked whether it would be better to give others a chance to perform.
The director thought for a while and said that anyone who thought he was better than Xi Ruan could go on stage, but none of them except one dancer dared to go on stage and get in trouble with the chief director.
So the opportunity to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala fell into Xi Ruan's pocket so easily, and she became a hot search and gained enough attention.
Just for a moment, she looked at the eyes in front of her and thought of something. After smiling slightly, she gently waved for them to gather around.
"Let me tell you quietly, Xi Ruan is amazing. Last time at Huangtaotai..." (End of Chapter)
