"I don’t know, who cares who he likes." Jiaojiao listened absentmindedly, her attention on Duan Xi beside her who occasionally glanced over, her mouth curling up uncontrollably with an indescribable pride.

She deliberately gave a vague answer, forgetting that Duan Xi could hear Yu Rou’s voice from across.

"Hey, I don’t get it. Oh, after he called you last time to say he liked you, did he contact you again?" Yu Rou asked, her voice lowered like a thief.

Jiaojiao’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this, immediately covering her phone, instinctively glancing sheepishly at Duan Xi beside her. Jiang Xun calling her to confess was something she hadn’t mentioned to Duan Xi, only casually chatted about with Yu Rou later.

Given Duan Xi’s excellent hearing, he naturally heard this conversation, and his face immediately turned dark and ugly.

Simultaneously, the car shook forward before coming to a stop.

"Get out!" Duan Xi said coldly to Shen Ting in the back.

Shen Ting glanced at him in doubt, not understanding why he was being asked to get out on the highway.

"Get out!" Duan Xi repeated, his tone even colder.

Shen Ting had no choice but to get out of the car. Jiaojiao watched him pitifully through the rear-view mirror, hoping for the first time that he wouldn’t leave.

But Shen Ting still got out, and once he did, Duan Xi sped off, leaving him with the car’s rear end.

"..." Shen Ting.

Standing on the highway, his face turned dark as well.

In the car, Jiaojiao finally remembered Duan Xi’s extraordinary hearing, feeling a jolt of fear. After hearing Duan Xi’s voice earlier, Yu Rou had already hung up the phone, displaying the superficial friendship perfectly.

Duan Xi parked on the roadside, looking at her with a cold face.

Jiaojiao, feeling intimidated, quickly raised her hand, confessing everything earnestly, and sincerely pledging her loyalty at the end: "Brother Xi, I really scolded him back then, called him disgusting, and then hung up the phone, even took out the SIM card."

Listening to Jiaojiao’s words, Duan Xi’s face still looked unpleasant.

He knew Jiang Xun coveted his ’kitten,’ but he hadn’t expected Jiang Xun to be so bold and blatant.

"Brother Xi." Jiaojiao called softly, intimidated by his dark face, trying to reach for his hand, which he wrapped around hers.

"Brother Xi, are you angry?"

Duan Xi shook his head.

Jiaojiao felt relieved, then heard Duan Xi say, "You’re mine."

Jiaojiao, still breathing a sigh of relief, didn’t pay attention, just nodded like a pecking chick, agreeing: "Yes, yes, yes, I’m yours, I’m yours..." Mid-sentence, she blushed and glared at him playfully.

Duan Xi looked at her rosy cheeks and playful eyes, his heart melting, unable to resist leaning closer.

Jiaojiao knew he was going to kiss her, and shyly closed her eyes.

As their breaths drew closer and Jiaojiao’s heartbeat sped up, suddenly there was a knock on the window beside her, startling her into opening her eyes, only to see a traffic cop standing outside Duan Xi’s window. Her face turned bright red, and she frantically pushed Duan Xi away from her.

After the traffic cop finished asking questions and left, Jiaojiao’s face still hadn’t returned to its normal color.
