Chapter 489: Chapter 365: He’s Quite Concerned About You (Sweet~)

The next morning, Xiao Meng lay on the bed, her head turned, looking woefully at Yin Shixiu, who was spirited and had just returned from his morning exercise.

Facing Xiao Meng’s intense gaze, Yin Shixiu feigned ignorance and said,

"Mrs. Yin, any instructions?"

"Hmph!"

Su Xiaomeng snorted and then turned her face away.

Her legs still hurt.

Sometimes, when things get too passionate between two people, it’s inevitable to feel sore all over the next day.

But last night, this man really went too far!

He heartlessly kept her standing by the counter, enthusiastically demanding while watching her knead the dough!

If the dough didn’t form, the man wouldn’t stop!

Later, she really put all her effort into kneading the dough, crying for mercy there...

Now, even a slight move felt like her legs were falling apart.

Yin Shixiu chuckled inwardly and didn’t provoke her again. If she really got angry, he certainly wouldn’t have it easy either.

He showered and came out, just as she was getting up...

"Hmph!"

Su Xiaomeng glanced at him, snorting once more.

Yin Shixiu pulled her hand over, hugging her into his arms, and his fresh scent instinctively made her sniff twice.

It smells so good...

Shit! It doesn’t smell good at all!

Yin Shixiu gently swayed holding her,

"What are you doing?"

Su Xiaomeng asked in annoyance.

"Can’t you see?"

"...Can’t see."

"Soothing a child!"

"..."

Yin! Shi! Xiu!

After the playful morning scuffle, one went to the company, the other to school.

The siblings were taken care of at home by Claire and Lily.

Ever since Qin Hui confided her feelings to Su Xiaomeng, Su Xiaomeng’s ears hadn’t had a moment of peace.

Constantly talking about where she saw Eric again...

At first, it was fine, but later, Su Xiaomeng found it quite torturous.

Qin Hui seemed to be someone who liked to talk but took no actual action!

"What do you think would happen if I confessed to him?"

At this moment, Su Xiaomeng almost rolled her eyes to the heavens!

The two were hiding in a corner, Qin Hui scratched the red brick wall, her lively eyes resting on Eric, who was chatting with several school leaders some distance away.

"Why don’t you just go confess and find out?"

Su Xiaomeng said this, confident that Qin Hui would never boldly go and confess.

"He’s really handsome... Especially those blue eyes, like a male lead straight out of a fantasy novel..."

Fantasy novel?

Surprised, Su Xiaomeng looked up at Qin Hui’s shining eyes, her mouth slightly open, not concealing her admiration for Eric at all.

In that moment...

Su Xiaomeng felt a hint of unexplainable... envy in her heart.

Secretly crushing on someone like this, she’d never experienced it before.

"Ah! He’s looking over!"

Qin Hui hurriedly retracted her head, leaning against the wall in full alert.

"Pfft..."

Su Xiaomeng was amused by Qin Hui’s reaction but completely forgotten that her own forehead was also sticking out.

As she turned to mock Qin Hui, Eric’s voice suddenly came from above her,

"What are you doing here?"

"Ah?"

Startled, Su Xiaomeng quickly regained her composure, meeting Eric’s blue eyes, the eyes that captivated Qin Hui.

With Qin Hui hiding behind the wall, Xiao Meng caught sight of her frantically gesturing not to "sell her out."

Xiao Meng cleared her throat, stepped out from behind the wall, and said playfully,

"Me? I’m looking at handsome guys!"

"Looking at handsome guys?"

Eric raised an eyebrow and suddenly smiled,

"Seems like Arthur has good reason to keep an eye on you."

"...What do you mean by that?"

"You’re looking at the handsome guys, while the handsome guys are looking at you too..."

Eric murmured, his deep blue eyes glimpsing over Su Xiaomeng’s head, landing on a bench not far away.

Xiao Meng followed Eric’s gaze back, puzzled...

Suddenly, her back stiffened!

Since when had that person been sitting there?

Han Tan was sitting on the bench, leaning against the wooden backrest, the low-cut sweater seemingly inviting the cold wind right into the collar.

Sensing their gaze, Han Tan lifted his eyes slightly...

Su Xiaomeng instinctively turned away, she was a little afraid of Han Tan.

Eric just gave a light smile, considering it a greeting to Han Tan.

Han Tan kept a cold face, closed the book he was reading, and got up to leave.

"Do you know him?"

Eric asked Su Xiaomeng.

Su Xiaomeng quickly shook her head. How could she know such a "dangerous element"!

Eric’s gaze lingered on the back of that boy for a long time before he withdrew it. He looked at Su Xiaomeng,

"He seems quite interested in you."

"..."

Su Xiaomeng was stunned, subconsciously swallowing hard, no way?

Was she being targeted by a "dangerous element"?

Eric yawned,

"Speaking of, were you looking at the handsome guy earlier... Could it have been me?"

The guy said this right after yawning, his eyebrows curved, and he leaned slightly forward towards Su Xiaomeng, surprisingly creating a touch of ambiguity.

"Are you crazy? My husband is so much more handsome than you, do you think I would look at you..."

"Wow... Su Xiaomeng, you’re quite sharp-tongued."

"Hmph!"

"Hmm..." Eric touched his chin, saying, "I didn’t think Arthur was more handsome than me..."

Su Xiaomeng smirked, stepped a bit closer, lowered her voice, and said,

"Then... why couldn’t you out-compete him for a girlfriend?"

"... " 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Eric froze for a moment, took a deep breath, pointed at Su Xiaomeng,

"You two really are a couple!"

Eric, struck where it hurts, pretended to cry, wiping his nose and turning around, just as he was about to leave, he added,

"Xiao Hui, I told you, didn’t I? You should greet me when you see me, why hide..."

"... "

Qin Hui stiffened, her earlobes turning red, her lips pressed tight, her heart pounding.

Xiao Meng also paused for a moment, turning her head to look at the girl hiding behind the wall...

Only to see Qin Hui seemed to have made up her mind, suddenly lifted her head, and then walked out,

"E—"

"He’s gone..."

By the time Eric had finished speaking and left, all Qin Hui saw upon coming out was half of a figure stepping into the office building.

Xiao Meng watched Qin Hui’s hard-won courage dissipate again.

"Alright, stop looking, class is starting soon, I’m not keeping you company anymore."

"Ahhh! I’m so stupid! A simple hello would have been enough!"

Instead of scratching the wall, Qin Hui was now scratching Su Xiaomeng!

"..."

Su Xiaomeng was on the verge of tears.

Aside from being dragged by Qin Hui every day to fangirl over Eric whenever she had free time, Su Xiaomeng also had another task...

To avoid Dick as much as possible.

Except for unavoidable class time, at all other times, Xiao Meng did not want to encounter Dick.

All coincidences or accidental meetings, she hoped wouldn’t happen.

Reason?

Well, Xiao Meng had failed Dick’s class.

Actually, in the practical simulation test, one-third of the entire class failed, but unfortunately, Xiao Meng was at the bottom.

Well, second to last, since the very last one had a nervous stomachache on the exam day.

Later, Xiao Meng heard that Dick had spotted the last-place student on the playground and gave him a good verbal thrashing.

So much so that the boy’s entire face flushed red.

But sometimes, things just happen as if enchanted—whoever you don’t want to run into, you just keep running into!

Xiao Meng was at the library during lunch, skipping the cafeteria, and then went to the supermarket to buy snacks.

There’s only one path from the supermarket to the teaching building, with headphones in, someone was still bouncing along!

But then she looked up, and saw Dick with a stern face, having spotted her from afar.

Su Xiaomeng’s steps stilled, a little panicked.
