Xiaoxiao’s Meeting

It was lunch break, and Lin Yi was eating with Tang Yun in the cafeteria when he received Xiaoxiao’s call!

He looked at the caller on his phone and frowned a little. To tell the truth, he never quite understood just what Xiaoxiao was thinking——he thought that she was a bit off. A while back, she hated him to the bone, and all of a sudden she was in love with him! If it weren’t for how he understood that there was something bigger involved, he’d even assume that this girl was a masochist!

“Why aren’t you picking up,” Tang Yun said after looking at Lin Yi, who didn’t pick up directly.

“It’s Feng Xaioxiao.” Lin Yi said.

“Oh…” Tang Yun’s face visibly tensed upon hearing the name. “Shouldn’t you pick up? What if something’s happened?”

“Okay.” Lin Yi nodded and picked up. “Xiaoxiao?”

“Lin Yi, I’m back in Songshan, where are you? Did you miss me?” Xiaoxiao’s voice was as sunshine as usual, completely different from the sad version she was when in the car with her dad!

If it weren’t for the uncurable disease she had, no one would believe that this happy, energetic girl would have that much sadness inside her!

“I’m at school.” Lin Yi said. “If you mean as neighbors in class, then yes, I miss you a little.”

“Tch…” Xiaoxiao was a little displeased at the words. “Fine, classmate Lin, are you allowed to simply touch your classmate’s breast?”

Lin Yi jumped—this Xiaoxiao really dared to talk about anything! Fortunately, Tang Yun didn’t hear her. “Do you need something?”

“Didn’t you promise to eat with me? I’m a little hungry now, maybe you could come find me?” Xiaoxiao didn’t stay on the topic. After all, she only needed to remind him by mentioning it sometimes—if she kept on saying it then it would lose meaning.

“Now?” Lin Yi frowned.

“Yeah, I just came back to Songshan, I didn’t eat yet!” Xiaoxiao said. “You promised me, you said you’d buy me beef noodles! And that I get to set the time!”

“Fine.” Lin YI didn’t have a choice. He was someone who kept his word, and now that he’d promised her he had to keep it. Plus, in his mind, he felt that he did owe Xiaoxiao a little!

He didn’t know what this girl was up to, but he did, in fact, touch her private area! Even if it were only the two of them who knew this, if Xiaoxiao were to ignore everything and blame it on Lin Yi, then Lin Yi had to take it! After all, he did mean to do it back then, and was thinking perverted thoughts…

She also helped him a great deal at the auction, too, she got that thousand-year box into his hands!

“I’m driving to the school gates, wait for me there okay?” Xiaoxiao said.

“Alright.” Lin Yi nodded.

He hung up and sighed before looking at Tang Yun. “I’m leaving for a bit…”

“Oh… Okay.” Tang Yun nodded. She wanted to ask him where he was going and what he wanted to do but felt like that was interfering with his private business. She didn’t know what to do! Now that she had this big Miss as her love rival, she became a lot more cautious…

“Back in Yanjing, Xiaoxiao did me a big favor, and I promised her I’d eat with her. And now she’s back, and she’s calling!” Tang Yun didn’t ask for the details, but Lin Yi told her the explanation regardless.

“Oh, then, of course, you should buy her lunch.” Tang Yun smiled and nodded. “It’s okay, you should get going. I’ll just eat in the canteen!”

“Alright. If anything happens just call me.” Lin Yi said before leaving the canteen and heading to the school gates.

He had complicated feelings when it came to Xiaoxiao, and to tell the truth, he used to think of her as just a spoiled rich kid. Yet, after that time at the beach, he realized that it maybe wasn’t as simple as he thought—especially when he realized she was Tainlong’s daughter! It complicated his feelings even more.

He did feel sympathy for this girl—she didn’t have her mother, and her father was always busy. This was what caused her personality! He did come to understand her better after knowing her situation and lost his distaste for her completely.

This was a girl full of passion, but you needed to be close to her to feel that undetectable sadness and sorrow within her.

Xiaoxiao was still using her Audi TT. She parked beside Lin Yi and poked her head out. “Lin Yi! Come in!”

Lin Yi didn’t speak but walked over opened the door, and sat in the shotgun seat.

“Hey, why the long face?” Xiaoxiao was a little unhappy at Lin Yi’s silence. “Interrupting you hitting on girls, am I?”

“I was about to eat with Tang Yun at the canteen.” Lin Yi said.

“So I did interrupt you. But it’s okay, you can hit on me! Between Tang Yun and I, who’s prettier?” She fluttered her lashes at Lin Yi.

“Tang Yun.” Lin Yi said.

“Hmph!” Xiaoxiao’s smile froze over as she glared at Lin Yi. “Don’t you even know how to cheer someone up? Can’t you say something nicer and just lie?”

“Alright, you’re prettier.” Lin Yi said.

“Whatever. Let’s go eat.” Xiaoxiao said after one look at that ‘I’m lying’ face Lin Yi was making, drying up her interest. Just why couldn’t she seduce Lin Yi? Was she really that far behind Tang Yun?

Xiaoxiao started the car and wasn’t thinking of going very far. She parked it in a nearby beef noodle shop.

Lin Yi paused, not expecting for Xiaoxiao to bring him to somewhere like this. The prices weren’t high here, and Lin Yi even thought that she was planning on emptying his wallet when he first received her call to lunch!

The two of them went into the noodle shop and sat down.

“Could you two wait a moment, I’ll take your orders shortly!” The waiter said as he took the orders of another table, with a mother and daughter.

“Alright, we’ll look at the menu first.” Lin Yi nodded casually and picked up the menu.

“Can I… have a bowl of noodles… Please?” The mother at the other table said as she looked at the waiter embarrassedly.
