After Ruan Jiaojiao finished hiding, she realized what she’d done and felt terribly frustrated. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

But the more she tried to explain, the more it seemed like she was covering up, so she just wrinkled her brows, silently cursed herself, and then when she lifted her head, she changed the subject to something she cared about the most: "So, Brother Xian, I heard from my godmother that you’re going abroad?"

Lu Xian maintained his leisurely demeanor, not in a hurry to answer, but instead turned to look at her.

His gaze was so focused, it seemed like she was the only thing he could see.

Under his intense gaze, Ruan Jiaojiao gradually started feeling uneasy, her mind racing to find a way to break the situation, but at the crucial moment, she couldn’t think of anything.

Moreover, what made her most flustered was that she slowly realized Lu Xian was gradually moving towards her.

Seeing his handsome face getting closer, Ruan Jiaojiao’s scalp almost exploded, even thinking he might kiss her, when Lu Xian suddenly leaned back and burst out laughing.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt utterly bewildered.

Lu Xian stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead, making Ruan Jiaojiao gasp in pain, clutching her forehead with both hands, glaring at him somewhat angrily.

Lu Xian was still laughing uncontrollably, his eyes sparkling, as he asked her, "Jiaojiao, did you really think I’m going abroad because of you?"

Isn’t that the case?

Ruan Jiaojiao felt rather awkward.

"What a dreamer you are, you’re not that charming." Lu Xian finally had enough of laughing, shook his head helplessly, and shrugged, saying, "Silly girl, I’m ten years older than you and have had three girlfriends already. I don’t like you that much, it’s just you know, men, when they fancy someone, they like to compete for attention. Duan Xi, that kid, has always annoyed me, and this time I specifically want to cut him down to size. You know, our relationship has never been good."

Lu Xian spoke casually, looking utterly helpless, and Ruan Jiaojiao remembered that his relationship with Duan Xi was indeed not great, and believed him a little more, but she still asked, "But Brother Xian, didn’t you get into graduate school? Why suddenly go abroad to study."

"You can study for a master’s anywhere, and this time going abroad isn’t mainly for studying. It’s more to check out the overseas mobile market instead of your mom and learn some experience. If you don’t believe me, you can ask your brother and mom." Lu Xian replied.

Ruan Jiaojiao thought of the father and daughter surnamed Dai from a month ago and felt even more unsure.

However, regardless of whether it was true or not, she could only take it as true, because only if it were true could their relationship truly return to what it was before.

"So, don’t feel any pressure. Your Brother Xian, what kind of person is he? He’s not worried about finding a wife. Besides, by the time you become an adult, it’ll be at least three years, and by the time you get married, your Brother Xian will be almost thirty. Tsk, tsk, he can’t wait that long." Lu Xian said as he reached out again to rub the top of Ruan Jiaojiao’s head.

This time, Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t dodge.

With his large hand on her head, regardless of whether it was true or false, she seriously said to Lu Xian, "Brother Xian, no matter what, I hope you can be happy."

Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t bring herself to say things like "In the future, you’ll definitely meet someone better than me," because she didn’t know whether Lu Xian was telling the truth or not, but regardless, she felt saying such things in front of someone who liked you was quite heart-wrenching.
