Chapter 18: Skirmishes (3)
Lou Qingyu's eyes were slightly cold, as if she had been quenched by ice, and the light pink lips were slightly lifted to the boy's mocking eyes, but before she could say anything, Xi Yue next to her had already exploded.
A bright little face turned red angrily, there was a bit of disbelief in the dark eyes, and he opened his mouth and crackled, "Xia Ziran, what do you mean? Tell me clearly?!"
Xi Yue, she didn't expect her hair to say such mean words, what is such a person? What little feather is not worth boasting about?
Xia Ziran glanced at Xi Yue, but he still didn't want to tear his face in front of Xi Yue, so he put his face away, "It's nothing." But the obvious look on his face was not what he said it was.
There was a mocking smile on the corner of the boy's mouth, a person who deceived Xi Yue into paying to sponsor the opening of the store, trying to fool more people in their circle with some carving insect skills, and was ambitious enough, just like his stepmother in sheep's clothing.
used all kinds of rhetoric to deceive his simple and kind mother, help her expand her acting career, fight for resources, and introduce contacts.
But what did his kind mother get in the end?
Oh, he hooked up with the wolf-hearted man behind his mother's back, not only sent the photos and videos of the dirty pit to his mother's mobile phone, but also sent the fatal medical examination list to her.
Snort, the sisterhood of the past, the love of each other in the past, seems to be a great joke.
The feeling of being betrayed made the kind mother leave the country in the end, and never came back, the decision to go, the sadness of leaving, and never came back, the fuse of all this was that woman.
All of this made Xia Ziran, who was young at the time, silently hold a grudge.
At this time, Lou Qingyu, who was planning to make friends with Xi Yue, was so similar to that woman!
At this time, Lou Qingyu suddenly took a step forward, her slim baking clothes outlined her tall figure, her dark eyes were a little cold, and a fluttering sentence hit everyone's hearts, "I really didn't say anything wrong back then, and I was really sick." β
Everyone was stunned for a moment, was the disease light back then?
I saw the young man in white walking out from behind the counter, approaching Xia Ziran step by step, and several girls were caught by her aura, and subconsciously took the initiative to get out of the way.
The voice that was as clear as a cold spring slowly sounded with the footsteps, and the sound was in the ears, and every word was beautiful, "Xia Ziran, who do you see me, or should I say, who do you see Xi Yue as a person?"
As early as when Xia Ziran came in, Lou Qingyu knew at a glance that this boy was still as naΓ―ve as he was back then, with pitiful prejudices, and subjective thoughts had already occupied his mind.
Although he didn't know what happened to him, Lou Qingyu, who had experienced so many changes, had already guessed his thoughts.
"I'm not the kind of person you think, Xi Yue is not such a deceitful person, Xi Yue is not stupid. β
Xia Ziran looked at the girl standing in front of him, his delicate facial features made him involuntarily sound a certain face, the disgust in his heart gradually deepened, and his face was full of mockery, "Snort, if Xi Yue is not easy to deceive, he will take out funds to sponsor you to open a store?
When Xi Yue heard the last sentence, she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart anymore, "Xia Ziran, shut up!"
The other people's expressions were a little complicated, it was the first time they had seen Xia Ziran like this, obviously he was usually just a little cold, and he didn't like to talk, but what he said today... One sentence is sharper and meaner than the other, full of strong hostility towards the clean and clear "boy".
Xi Yue walked up to the tall boy angrily, looking at his mocking look, Xi Yue pushed him angrily, "Xia Ziran, it's none of your business, you are not welcome here, you get out for me!!"
Xia Ziran shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and was about to leave with his schoolbag on his side, not forgetting to leave a sentence, "Did I say something wrong?"
"Wait a minute!" A cold voice stopped Xia Ziran's departure, and there was a faint sound of footsteps behind him, and the boy frowned slightly impatiently, what does this guy want to do?
When he turned over slightly, a piece of roasted burnt croissant was handed to him, and a rich milk fragrance wafted into the tip of his nose, and the burnt and crispy surface made Xia Ziran's appetite suddenly rise, but the person in charge of handing it over was the person he hated the most.
"Eat!"
Xia Ziran took a step back and refused to accept Lou Qingyu's "feeding", but Lou Qingyu approached forward, maintaining the action of handing it over, and his tone revealed a bit that could not be refused, "The answer you want." β
"What?"
"The answer to why Xi Yue sponsored me to open a store. β
The girl's dark eyes were bright and determined, as if she had bewitched the boy, and made him subconsciously take the croissant.
When he came back to his senses, the tip of his tongue was already filled with the fragrance of milk and wheat, the sweet but not greasy caramel slowly melted in his mouth, and his teeth chewed on the soft and fluffy inner core, like biting into a soft cloud.
Even though Xia Ziran had a lot of prejudice against the person in front of him, he had to admit that this croissant was delicious!
Xi Yue and the others saw this scene, their faces were full of surprise, what did they see, Xia Ziran, who was picky about taste, didn't frown, didn't have a poisonous tongue, not only that, but continued to eat?!
The second bite, the third bite, the fourth bite... Until there were a few grease stains left on his fingertips, although the expression on his face did not fluctuate much, the stretched eyebrows and empty palms pointed out the fact that this bread was very suitable for Xia Ziran's taste, and even delicious!
"How?" The cold voice aroused Xia Ziran, who was intoxicated with the delicious bread, and there was a faint but confident smile on the corner of his mouth, and he was not too complacent, only the victory in this matter.
Under the warm yellow light, the boy in the blue and white school uniform wiped the corners of his mouth, glanced at the door, and the figure carrying the schoolbag moved, Xi Yue's face was slightly cold, this guy wants to leave after eating?
In the next second, the long legs stepped away and sat directly on the sofa with the schoolbag.
"Another cake. Xia Ziran's black eyes were hidden under the black broken hair, and his expression was faint, but Xi Yue, who was familiar with him, already knew that Xia Ziran was... Backed down.
Despite this, Xi Yue still had to complain to his face, "It's not enough to eat a loaf of bread, are you a pig?"
The mouth was disgusted, but the movement in his hand was very fast, and a mango mousse cake was quickly served, the light yellow mousse was spread with pieces of mango pulp, and the yellow and clear color looked delicious and sweet.
Xia Ziran picked up the silver fork, and the hard metal material slashed across the delicate mousse, and the silk-like smooth feeling ran up his fingertips.
Before it reaches the mouth, I have already begun to look forward to the taste and texture of this mousse cake in my mind, take a bite, the soft and dense custard-style dessert slowly blooms in the mouth, mixed with sweet and delicious pieces of pulp, and the cool and refreshing taste is integrated into every human touch, bringing the ultimate enjoyment!
Xi Yue sat opposite, staring at Xia Ziran's expression, and didn't let go of a little micro-expression, naturally seeing through the real feeling under his indifferent mask, and smiled a little proudly, "What's the matter?"
However, the boy on the other side didn't pay attention to it, and silently ate the cake on the plate one bite at a time.
For a long time, there was a "dang" sound, this was the crisp sound of the silver fork falling on the plate, which attracted Lou Qingyu's side eyes, Xia Ziran raised his eyes lightly, and looked at the delicate-looking person, who has always been calm, and was rarely a little apprehensive, "I'm sorry!"
This matter is indeed something he thought about for a while, Lou Qingyu is not his stepmother, and Xi Yue is not his real mother.
In the next second, Xia Ziran frowned, what he thought just now... It always felt like something was wrong.
