Although the little episode between her and Sheng Yize was over, the awkwardness still hadn’t passed completely . An Xiaxia decided to take the bus to school .
The moment she was out the door, she bumped into a tall and sturdy figure who smiled cockily at her . “Morning, Little Dummy Xia . ”
“Morning…” said An Xiaxia, dumbfounded . “Qi Yanxi?? What are you doing outside my house?”
“What do you think? Picking you up for school, obviously . ” He smiled a careless smile and looked into the eyes of Sheng Yize, who was now standing behind An Xiaxia . Qi Yanxi’s voice then turned a few degrees colder . “I’m no national idol and I’m a free man, compared with some other fellow . Unlike him, I can ride the bus with you . That’s something he probably can’t do in this lifetime…”
An Xiaxia forced out a chuckle . On second thought, Qi Yanxi did have a point . If Sheng Yize walked into a bus with that handsome face, he would be boggled at like a panda at the zoo .
“You know… I can go to school on my own, Qi Yanxi . ” An Xiaxia made sure to keep her distance from Qi Yanxi, so as not to lead him on again .
Qi Yanxi ignored her words and followed her with a scowl .

An Xiaxia was speechless . “Stop following me!”
“I just happen to be using the same route and riding the same bus as you . Little Dummy Xia, do you own this street? Are you driving the bus? If not, why can’t I ride with you?”
Despite his false reasoning, An Xiaxia couldn’t do anything about it . She gritted her teeth and got on the bus in frustration .
Qi Yanxi smiled like the cat that had had gotten the cream . He hopped onto the bus with his long legs and was gloating when a deep voice rang out behind him . “Excuse me . ”
Why did that voice sound familiar?
Looking around, Qi Yanxi was baffled .
Could someone please explain to him why Sheng Yize was on the bus as well and wearing a cap and a gauze mask?

He wasn’t the only one baffled; An Xiaxia didn’t look any better . Sheng Yize, on the other hand, stepped onto the bus with perfect composure .
For a moment, the atmosphere on the bus became very weird .
Finally, the driver couldn’t take it anymore and cleared his throat . “Hey, ticket, please . One yuan per passenger!”
Sheng Yize and Qi Yanxi both frowned spontaneously . It was clear that neither of these rich young masters had ridden a bus before .
Sheng Yize took out his wallet and the only notes inside were a wad of pink 100-yuan bills . He took one out and was going to thrust it into the slot, at which An Xiaxia stopped him, looking horrified . “What are you doing?”
“Buying a ticket . ” He gave a concise reply .
An Xiaxia felt like passing out . “They don’t give change on the bus…”

Qi Yanxi wouldn’t be left out . He fumbled in his wallet and produced a black card, then said in a commanding tone, “There! Use my card!”
The bus driver gave him an “are you nuts” look .
An Xiaxia eyed the two privileged young masters with mixed feelings and reached into her own pocket in resignation . There, she found three one-yuan bills and put them into the slot .
“Let’s go . I think there are empty seats at the back . ” An Xiaxia pointed .
Sheng Yize and Qi Yanxi exchanged a look, snorted at each other, and walked to the back .
There were indeed empty seats, but unfortunately, there were only two of them…
“Who’s supposed to sit here?” Qi Yanxi pursed his lips and eyed the threadbare seats in distaste .
Gosh! How did Little Dummy Xia survive all these years riding this lousy bus?
Sheng Yize said matter-of-factly, “We two will sit and you stand, obviously . ”
Qi Yanxi bristled . “Why?! No way! I’m taking the seat and you’re standing!”
“Heh… she’s sick and I’m weak . Are you going to take the seats away from us?” Sheng Yize looked very earnest .
Qi Yanxi’s mouth twitched uncontrollably . Damn you, Sheng Yize! That’s the most shameless excuse I’ve ever heard!
