Chapter 272: The Confusion
Xiao Xiao:......
Faced with the "denunciation" of Zhang Bo and others, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh or cry. How could he talk so matter-of-factly even though he didn't even have a shadow?
Doesn't his previous behavior show that he and Su Youjin are just friends, at least for now. Who knows what will happen in the future?
He asked himself that his words and deeds did not show any ambiguity, but the boss and the others still teased and teased him whenever they got the opportunity. Now looking at the serious expressions of several people, Xiao Xiao suddenly felt that his head hurt.
"I don't have anyone I like."
Xiao Xiao felt that he still had to explain this point to save these guys from making random guesses and pulling red lines everywhere.
"Really?"
Zhang Bo and others expressed doubts, "Su Youjin doesn't like it either?"
"I like it."
Seeing the shocked faces of several people, Xiao Xiao said the second half of the sentence in a leisurely manner, with a slight smile in his eyes, "How can we be friends if we don't like them?"
Who would be friends with someone they hate?
The faces of Zhang Bo and others suddenly froze, their expressions a bit strange and very funny.
"Haha~"
Xiao Xiao laughed rudely, and while several people were stunned, he quickly walked a few steps to the door of the dormitory, opened the door and walked in.
"Lao San (Third Brother)!"
There was a faint sound of grinding teeth in the voice, indicating the owner's unhappy mood.
……
In the past few days, Zhang Bo and others had been talking to him about Su Youjin. Xiao Xiao, who was a little unbearable, embarked on the road to Xiangshan in the morning when there was no class.
Now is a good time to appreciate maples. The red maples all over the mountains and plains always make Xiao Xiao stop and admire them.
Moreover, I wonder if he can meet Yulu this time?
……
The red maples in Xiangshan are as stunning as I remembered.
The deep and light colors of the forest are dyed bright red, almost dazzling the eyes of tourists.
Xiao Xiao climbed up the steps, and the maple forest in his eyes became more and more overwhelming.
The clean and pleasant fragrance of grass and trees makes people feel relaxed and happy.
“Coffee~”
Philip stood on Xiao Xiao's shoulder, with a crimson light passing through his silver-blue eyes, adding a bit of dreamy splendor.
"Ouch~"
Taotie glanced at the surrounding maple forest with no interest, then lazily closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The corner of Xiao Xiao's mouth raised slightly. He walked into the maple forest on one side and took a leisurely stroll in it. The crimson maple leaves within reach had delicate outlines. Xiao Xiao couldn't help but gently pinched a maple leaf and looked at it carefully.
"Pipphi, what a beautiful maple leaf."
Xiao Xiao's fingertips slowly rubbed the maple leaf in his hand, which felt slightly rough.
“Coffee~”
Feifei also put his head in front of a maple leaf and twitched his nose, as if he was sniffing the fragrance of the maple leaf.
Her eyes became even more radiant because of this gorgeous red color.
……
Although Xiao Xiao hoped to meet Luo Tao, he didn't search too hard.
It's great to see the mandarin ducks, but the beautiful scenery in front of you should not be missed.
Moreover, Xiao Xiao, who was stopping in front of a maple tree to admire it, slowly raised the corners of his mouth, with a pleasant smile in his eyes.
Even if you don't look for it specifically, wouldn't it show up?
The familiar demonic aura behind him made Xiao Xiao relax his tense body for a moment. He turned around slowly and his eyes met Luo Tao's eyes accurately.
The red maple monster is perched on the maple branches, its figure hidden behind the layers of maple leaves, but its green beak is particularly eye-catching.
And that long tail hanging down.
Even though he had seen it more than once, Xiao Xiao still smiled and said with emotion: What a beautiful monster.
Such a gorgeous red, among the layers of red maples surrounding it, is even more uniquely beautiful. ……
"Hello, Yutao."
Xiao Xiao raised his eyes and smiled softly, his clear voice extremely gentle.
"Hello, human."
Yuan Tao glanced at Xiao Xiao somewhat casually, but the strange tone was very pleasant, with a touch of remoteness and elegance accumulated over time.
"I am Xiao Xiao."
Xiao Xiao smiled and introduced himself again.
"I know."
The bird rolled its eyes gracefully, it had a good memory.
"Then please call me Xiao Xiao."
"Can I?"
Xiao Xiao's tone was gentle, with a slight curvature at the corner of his mouth, and he asked seriously.
Yuan Tao finally turned his gaze to Xiao Xiao, with a somewhat strange light in his eyes. Xiao Xiao allowed Yuan Tao to look at him, unmoved, his brows relaxed and his smile light.
"...Troublesome humans."
Luo Tao finally said as if he had come to some kind of conclusion, but after seeing that troublesome human being about to open his mouth again, he said rather impatiently, "Xiao Xiao."
"Is this OK?"
The mandarin duck flicked its gorgeous tail, drawing a graceful arc in the air, leaving some bright red afterimages.
"Yeah."
The smile on Xiao Xiao's lips deepened a bit.
At this time, other tourists came over.
They are a young couple. The girl is holding the boy's hand, looking up at the maple trees around her, with great surprise and joy on her face.
The boys looked at the girls with doting expressions on their faces.
The young couple passed by Xiao Xiao quickly. The girl accidentally caught Xiao Xiao's gaze and gave Xiao Xiao a big smile.
The beautiful scenery made people feel extremely happy. The cheerful girl smiled without hesitation and infected Xiao Xiao with her good mood, and Xiao Xiao couldn't help but smile back.
The boy also smiled friendly at Xiao Xiao.
It wasn't until the couple disappeared deep into the maple forest and no new tourists came around that Xiao Xiao raised his head to look at Yulu again.
But he found that Yuan was lost in thought facing the front.
That direction is... "鸰颴, are you looking at the couple that just passed by?"
Xiao Xiao looked in the direction of the couple and found that it was not the direction the couple left before, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Yeah."
Luo Tao did not hide or cover up, he admitted it very frankly.
Seeing Xiao Xiao's somewhat puzzled expression, the mandarin cat stroked its gorgeous feathers. Its green beak seemed to be shining with light. The combination of red and green colors on its body was so gorgeous and noble, "I'm just a little... Curious about human emotions ”
"Human emotions?"
Xiao Xiao repeated Luo Tao's words a little strangely but also somewhat clearly.
"Yes."
The strange tones always give people the illusion of being separated from the reality here, which makes people feel a little confused.
"The emotions of monsters are simple and weak."
"But humans who are obviously much weaker have such rich and diverse emotions."
The mandarin duck is a bit emotional and puzzled. It has lived for a long time and has seen a lot, but it always has a feeling of human emotions that are separated by window paper.
It seems to understand a lot, but it still seems to have a lot of confusion.
Whenever it feels that it already understands human emotions very well, it is always confused by human behavior.
