Chapter 1060: Yin Shaojie, You’re Dead Meat! (9)
Mu Xiaoxiao hung her head, perhaps because she knew that she had done wrong.
Yin Shaojie knew that she tended to be obstinate. He reached out and held her in his arms tightly. The nice curve of his thin lips pressed against her ear, and he said in a deep voice, “Alright. Let’s go home. You can talk to me if there’s anything you’re angry about, okay?”
Mu Xiaoxiao pressed her cheek against his chest. She could clearly feel the rise and fall of his chest and the sound of his heartbeat.
The sound of his heartbeat was her favorite thing to listen to.
Listening to it, she felt much calmer.
However, her little head still shook in his arms as she said, “I don’t want to go home…”
“Where do you want to go then?” Yin Shaojie went along with her. It was as if he would accompany her no matter where she wanted to go.
Across the road, the two girls watched as they embraced each other and they were green with envy.
“How romantic. How great it would be if only I had such a handsome and loving boyfriend.”
“Exactly. What should we do? I feel like s.n.a.t.c.hing him. But he loves his girlfriend so much. I don’t think there’s any chance for anyone else.”
“Come to think of it, it feels like I’ve seen him somewhere before.”
“Yeah, I think so too. But I just can’t rem… Ah! I remember now! He’s Shangde’s school hunk. Shangde High’s school hunk! Gos.h.!.+ He’s really handsome in person!”
“Ah ah ah! Right, right, right! And he’s also the heir to one of the Big Four Families. That’s odd. I clearly remember reading on the Internet that he was a playboy, and had lots of girlfriends. Why… does he feel different?”
“Maybe he met his true love! I envy this girl…”
“Aw. I want to enter Shangde too.”
“Me too.”
There were already some people crowding around to watch. But upon hearing their conversation, the gossiper in these onlookers came to life as they started talking amongst themselves. Some of them lived nearby and had seen Yin Shaojie and Mu Xiaoxiao before.
“They seem to be living together. I used to think that they were siblings. They’re only in high school, yet they are already living together. Kids nowadays…”
“The rich are just different. Is this a case of having a magnificent house to keep a beloved woman in?”
“This girl is really beautiful. She would definitely be more popular than the current female celebrities if she became famous. And she seems like a natural born beauty. To be so pretty without putting on makeup is a rare sight.”
“Look at how bad the girl is crying. The guy isn’t bullying her, is he? Or could she be pregnant, and the boy doesn’t want to be responsible for it?”
“Not necessarily. The boy is so handsome. He must be quite a player. Perhaps he’s cheating on her. Otherwise, why would his girlfriend cry like that?”
“Oh my. Or could he have been caught in the act? He brought a mistress home and was caught by his girlfriend?”
The noisy crowd had differing opinions. The more they talked, the more exaggerated the stories became. All kinds of interpretations were made.
Mu Xiaoxiao was thin-skinned and couldn’t bear listening to them anymore.
Could their imaginations be any wilder?
She wondered about the kinds of story lines she might start hearing if they were to continue.
In his arms, Mu Xiaoxiao raised her hand and tugged at his clothes, embarra.s.sed, and she said softly, “Let’s go. This is too embarra.s.sing.”
Their behavior was too conspicuous. Moreover, with their looks, they were the focus of attention wherever they went
