Chapter 146 You Are Cowardly And Greedy

Xi Ruan felt Jiang Lingsi's stiff body in front of him, and felt that the surrounding air froze for a moment.

It’s over.

Why did she speak out on impulse?

Jiang Xiaoshu had a heavy psychological burden and rejected her several times. It was hard for her to pretend that she didn't like him so that she could continue to stay by his side and get close to him as if nothing had happened.

But now she actually said it again...

Buried in his arms, Xi Ruan dared not look up, let alone look at his expression.

Jiang Lingsi looked down at the top of Xi Ruan's hair, his hands froze in mid-air, neither hugging her nor not hugging her, emotions surged in his dark phoenix eyes.

He remembered what Huo Da had said when he was chatting with him.

"Don't talk about us, just grab someone from our school and ask, who sees you two like this and doesn't think you are a young couple who haven't made it public?"

"I've said that Xi Ruan just likes you, everyone can tell, you insist that she regards you as a friend."

"I'm also her friend, why didn't I see her feeding me, throwing herself into my arms, and hanging around my neck?"

"Don't tell me that the two of you have been like this since you were young, and you are used to it. If you are really not that special, why haven't you seen a second person who made her have this habit, or who can make her give up and be with you? Are you close?"

"Jiang Lingsi, in fact, you can feel it, you can understand it, you just dare not poke yourself, you are cowardly and greedy."

【You are cowardly and greedy. 】

Jiang Ling's eyelashes trembled.

The hand that was raised in the air finally fell down, and gently hugged the person in his arms.

That's right, he is cowardly and greedy.

He was afraid that he had nothing, that he would become her burden, and that he would be abandoned by her.

But he was also greedy for everything she gave him now, enjoying her attachment and closeness without satisfaction, and coveting the liking that she couldn't suppress at all on weekdays.

He was the one who fooled the little girl into confusing the emotional boundaries, and he knew that the behavior between them had already surpassed the intimacy that friends should have, but he couldn't bear the temptation to cross the line again and again.

Jiang Lingsi hugged her shoulders tightly.

He is a jerk.

A bastard who takes all the benefits and dare not take responsibility...

Xi Ruan felt the hands on his shoulders getting tighter and tighter, and grabbed his clothes nervously.

Jiang Xiaoshu...he didn't push her away this time.

She raised her head quietly, and quickly glanced at Jiang Lingsi's face with her big agile eyes.

From her perspective, she could almost only see his clear and smooth jaw line. The boy lowered his brows and eyes, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyes, making her somewhat unable to distinguish his emotions.

but……

Feeling the temperature on her shoulders, Xi Ruan suddenly regained a little confidence.

"Jiang Xiaoshu." She called softly.

"Ah."

He complied.

Xi Ruan raised her eyebrows unconsciously, she rubbed the fabric of the clothes in her hand with her fingers, hesitated for a while and said: "Jiang Xiaoshu, I think, I like you a little bit."

"It's not the kind of friends, but the kind of liking for boys."

"But, it's also possible that I got confused again, so, until I make it clear to myself, can we still be as good as before?"

She said these words carefully, as if she clearly liked a rose very much, and she stretched out her hand to touch it, but she was afraid of hurting him or being pricked by his sharp thorns.

So she pretended that she didn't like it that much, just a little bit, still a little bit uncertain.

She can only do this, let herself retreat to the range he can accept, watch him guard him, and take back her overwhelmed feelings.

Xi Ruan waited quietly for Jiang Lingsi's reply. After a while, she heard him say "OK", and then he rubbed the hair on the back of her head.

Xi Ruan smiled.

She clenched her hands tightly, raised her head from his embrace, and boldly asked jokingly: "Jiang Xiaoshu, do you also like me a little but you're not sure?"

Her clear eyes were fixed on him.

She thought it would be okay even if he denied it again.

It didn't matter if what he said made her feel bad again.

At least, it's a big improvement today that he didn't push her away after she said he likes him.

Jiang Ling looked down at her.

She was actually very understanding in front of him.

Those eyes said it all.

Enthusiasm and hidden timidity, impulsive and suppressed expectations.

He reached out and smoothed the somewhat messy hair around her face behind her ears, and a smile appeared on her rosy lips.

"Well, not sure."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that pair of beautiful eyes immediately filled with starlight, and the little girl smiled like a flower, and happily buried her in his arms.

"Then let's work hard together ~ strive to distinguish as soon as possible!"

"Ah."

He hugged her tightly again, closed his eyes and rested his chin gently on the top of her hair.

Look, he's not only an asshole, he's a liar.

He has already figured it out.

From the first time he saw her when he was a child, he knew that he liked this pretty little girl.

——When he grows up, he will make her his bride.

-

The days that followed went fairly smoothly.

Xi Ruan lives a busy and fulfilling life, going to school and working, and often travels across the country.

Although it was really tiring, Xi Ruan felt that it was worth the hard work, considering the money that would be accumulating in his account in the future.

Another monthly exam is over, and the students are looking at the grades in the corridor.

When they saw that Xi Ruan was ranked No. [-] in literature and other optional subjects on the big red list ahead, the crowd became excited again.

Even if she is not at school, she will never be missing from everyone's gossip.

"Xi Ruan is really good. He is so good in the exam even if he doesn't come to class."

"So geniuses don't need to study! I'm such a waste compared to her!!!"

"Stop crying and howling! They are working very hard too! Didn't you watch "All Idol" where people spend a little bit of time memorizing words?"

"That's true! Hey! Speaking of which, have you all watched the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala!?"

"Aww!! Look at it! Xi Ruan's Jade Rabbit shape is really amazing! As soon as she opened her mouth, I knelt on the spot! It sounds so good!!!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

……

There were voices discussing Xi Ruan in every ear, and Liu Yue was extremely irritable after reading the grades, but it was a pity that she couldn't hang her face in school.

She walked back to the classroom of the art class, sat on the seat, and after a while, several female students surrounded her.

"Liu Yue, Liu Yue, how did you do in the exam?" A girl with a round face asked while leaning on Liu Yue's desk.

Liu Yue pretended to helplessly spread her hands, and shook her head, "What else can I do, it's not very good as usual."

Seeing this, several girls covered their mouths and laughed, also saying that they did not do well in the exam.

After chatting about grades, the girls blinked at each other, and the topic suddenly changed.

"Liu Yue, actually we want to ask..." A girl paused, seemed a little embarrassed, and poked the arm of the girl next to her.

The girl glanced at her in disgust, and said directly: "Actually, we want to ask you if you have had a lot of contact with Xi Ruan? Can you help us get a few to sign?"

"Yes, I remember last time you said that you also went to participate in the program selection of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, so you should meet Xi Ruan. It feels like you can always meet, so if you have a chance, can you help us? a signature?"

"I really like her! The "Lovesick Moon" she sang at the party was so beautiful! My mother cried!"

Several pairs of expectant eyes looked over at the same time, Liu Yue's hand under the table was clenched tightly, and the nails poked the palm of the hand so painfully.

It's Xi Ruan again!

Why is everyone only paying attention to her!
Obviously she is a star herself, why don't they ask for her autograph!
Liu Yue took a deep breath, her face was still cheerful and kind, and she agreed with all her mouth: "Okay ~ next time I meet her, I will definitely ask for it for you."

The girls immediately clapped each other happily and thanked Liu Yue repeatedly.

Liu Yue originally thought that these unsightly people should leave, but she didn't expect them to sit next to her and asked curiously, "Liu Yue, can you tell us about Xi Ruan?"

"Yeah, like what did she perform the last time you saw her?"

"And what style of private clothes does she usually wear?"

Several girls chirped and asked.

Liu Yue was so angry that she was going crazy, especially when she thought of the scene when she participated in the program selection last time, she was so jealous that she almost bit her lip.

Who would have thought that when Xi Ruan opened her mouth, the chief director immediately made a decision and settled on her.

And Xi Ruan was still pretending to be a good person on stage, saying that it would be better to give others a chance to perform.

The director thought about it for a while and said that whoever thought he was better than Xi Ruan could go on stage, but none of them except one dancer dared to go on stage and make the chief director feel bad.

So the opportunity to go to the Mid-Autumn Festival party fell into Xi Ruan's pocket so easily, and she made a lot of attention on the hot search again.

Just for a moment, she looked at the pairs of eyes in front of her and thought of something, and after a slight smile, she gently waved for them to gather around.

"Let me tell you quietly, Xi Ruan is amazing. Last time at Huangtao Terrace..."
