My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious-Chapter 866 - 785: Petty Squabbles
"Oh."
The assistant glanced at Mr. Song and thought: You better pray for good luck.
Song Li’s gaze never left Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes for a second; instead, he began a series of questions when he saw her: "Why didn’t you call me? Lin Xiaoxiao, you really can hold back. If I don’t call, you don’t even send me a single message. Are you interested in the male lead you’re acting with?"
His questions didn’t matter much to Lin Xiaoxiao, but the last one made her very angry. She had long lost the initial patience with Song Li’s troublemaking; although their relationship was once sweet as honey, the flaws became apparent after the sweetness faded.
"You are you, and I am me. You like hitting on girls, but that doesn’t mean I like flirting with men."
Lin Xiaoxiao’s words were harsh, yet they stopped Song Li from his excuses. He looked at the woman in surprise, completely stunned by her words, and stared in shock at her sharp gaze and slightly angry expression, feeling guilty. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
"Xiaoxiao, are you still mad at me? I’ve told you, I wasn’t hitting on her; she hit on me. Besides, I didn’t take the opportunity to get closer to her; I was drunk at the time."
Song Li’s explanation had no convincing power for Lin Xiaoxiao now. Because of this incident, she had a cold war with him for nearly a week, and she had gone from unable to bear the cold initially to calmly facing it later, needing time to settle herself. Besides these messy, troublesome matters, Song Li also had a difficult mother.
"Xiaoxiao, please don’t be angry."
Saying this, Song Li moved closer to Lin Xiaoxiao, and seeing her indifferent demeanor, he began to feel agitated and restless.
"Do you have anything else to say besides telling me not to be angry? If not, then go back; I have work to do." As she said this, a hint of depth appeared in Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes, looking curiously at the other person with an indifferent expression.
"You don’t care about me, Lin Xiaoxiao. Your eyes tell me I am not important to you at all. Not even as important as the people you act with."
Song Li’s emotions began to flare up. Despite his efforts, Lin Xiaoxiao had no reaction at all, and this was unbearable for him. He couldn’t be sure that their current relationship was still that of a couple.
"Tell me, are you interested in that pretty boy?"
Lin Xiaoxiao heard him call Rong Lan a pretty boy and showed a helpless expression, blurting out: "Don’t give nicknames to someone before you know them."
"I know his name is Rong Lan. Just a pretty boy, isn’t it? You’re not interested in pretty boys, but now you’re defending him in front of me. Lin Xiaoxiao, you really are surprising me."
Hearing his choice of words, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh: "Did your sports teacher teach you language? ’Surprising me’ is not used in this context."
"Mind your own business!"
Song Li was in a terrible mood, very confident in his own charm. Although he often secretly checked out other beauties behind Lin Xiaoxiao’s back, he did hold Lin Xiaoxiao in his heart. It was due to a drunken night when he was lured into a kiss by a woman who knew how to seduce men precisely that she happened to witness.
He had been apologizing for this ever since, but she was relentless. He was genuinely at a loss now, not knowing what to do to calm her anger. He had truly had enough of this tug-of-war during this time.
"Let me ask you again, are you still unwilling to forgive me and reconcile?"
Lin Xiaoxiao faced Song Li’s ultimatum, feeling complex emotions and inner turmoil. Even though he was wrong, he refused to lower his proud head and always demanded her to accommodate him.
