Su Xiaomo had never seen this fierce side of him . Cowering in a corner, she felt her eyes go blurry from her tears . She then gingerly tugged his sleeve . “Cutie, don’t be angry . You don’t look as pretty this way . ”
He Jiayu pushed her away, feeling that he had done the most preposterous thing .
He must have lost his mind to take Su Xiaomo to see his mother!
“Why are you angry?” Su Xiaomo snuffled . “Are you tired from beating up those bad men? Next time, I – I’ll help you! I know how to throw punches, too!” She waved her fists and smiled brightly at He Jiayu .
He Jiayu covered her eyes . He didn’t want to see that unsullied look in them, for it would only highlight how filthy his life was .
“I don’t need your help . Just stop liking me . Promise me, Su Xiaomo . You’re such a nice girl and you deserve someone better . I’ll forget all about your confession of love and if you like Qi Yanxi, I can help you get him . ”
Stop trying to enter his world . He had worked so hard to put on this mask, but she could always see through him in the first instance .
With her eyes covered, Su Xiaomo felt her world go dark . Despite her inebriated state, she reached out for He Jiayu, clinging to a single obsession .
“I like you . No matter what kind of person you are, I still like you .
“From now on, let’s protect her together . Deal?”
The top light switched off just then . In the darkness, tears welled up in He Jiayu’s eyes without warning .
There was no sympathy, no disdain, or reprimand in her voice .
All she gave him was a “let’s protect her together . ”
He murmured, “Don’t be so foolish . I’m not worth it . ”
She was so good, but he wasn’t good enough .
He had denied her affection not because he didn’t like her . It was just that he didn’t want her to fall in love with a man who wasn’t good enough .
Su Xiaomo waved her hands around stubbornly and accidentally touched his face .
She felt something wet and was confused . “Are you crying?”
The teenager looked away awkwardly . “I’m not!”
She drew back her hand and licked her fingertips . “It’s salty! You’re crying!”
“I’m not!” he stressed .
Su Xiaomo acknowledged that with an “oh,” then mumbled to herself, “Are you afraid of the dark? Don’t worry . If you are, just hold my hand . Nothing scares me!”
“Idiot!” He Jiayu snorted and started the car . “One more word and I’m throwing you out!”
Su Xiaomo groaned and began a drunken racket . She chuckled . “Cutie, are you mad because I said what you were thinking? Come, I’ll give you the honor of sharing my bed tonight . Let’s do it seven times~”
He Jiayu hit the brakes hard . “That’s enough! What the hell are you talking about?!”
“You don’t like it?” Su Xiaomo smiled crookedly . “Then we’ll only do it once, but it’ll last all night~”
He Jiayu ground his teeth, unfastened her seatbelt, and left her by the side of the road with a ruthless “Goodbye!”
Under the vast night sky, Su Xiaomo looked at the suburban wilderness around her and was speechless .
He had dumped her here…
Something rushed up her throat . She bent over and puked .
Three minutes later, the car stopped by her side again and He Jiayu came out with a grim face .
Su Xiaomo gave him a smug smile . “I knew you wouldn’t leave me behind… Do you want a chicken wing?” She found part of an undigested chicken wing in her stomach contents and waved it at He Jiayu .
He Jiayu was speechless .
