Mu Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly before switching to Mandarin and saying to Yin Shaojie, “I think we should talk in Mandarin. Anyone listening in on us will think we’re weird.”
Mu Xiaoxiao had been speaking in English ever since they arrived in America. Thankfully, Yin Shaojie was perfectly fluent in English so there were no problems communicating.
Yin Shaojie turned around and saw Nimo raising a gla.s.s in toast, a wide grin on his face.
Yin Shaojie threw a glance at him before turning around to Mu Xiaoxiao and saying, “Ignore him.”
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and thought he was being jealous. “Okay, okay, okay, I’ll ignore him even if he’s pretty handsome. Seeing him from here warms my heart and delights my eyes.”
“Does the sight of me not warm your heart and delight your eyes?” Yin Shaojie frowned, gesturing for her to only look at him.
Mu Xiaoxiao teased deliberately, “Aiyoh, I’ll get bored if I see the same thing over and over. It’s not a bad thing to look at other handsome boys once in a while.”
“Tired?” Yin Shaojie smirked as he crossed his fingers in front of him. He looked away and his gaze fell on a blonde beauty that had just stepped in. He smiled a little romantically as he said, “That’s right, it gets tiring after a while. Looking at other girls for eye candy isn’t a bad idea.”
Mu Xiaoxiao looked over. The blonde woman was wearing a revealing, low v-neck dress. She was well endowed and judging from the staring coming from many of the men in the restaurant, she had caught many people’s attention.
Her jealousy rose at once and she waved a hand in front of his face, blocking his vision. “Hey! Why are you still looking! Stop looking!”
She was only kidding earlier. Couldn’t he tell?
That b*stard!
As expected, men were perverts!
Yin Shaojie smiled and even reached out to push her hand away. “Why shouldn’t I look? Like you said, it warms my heart and delights my eyes. See for yourself. Western girls are just so different. Their skin is so white and their behind…”
This guy was too much. He was even describing her! Mu Xiaoxiao was angry as she grabbed her napkin and threw it in his direction. “I said stop looking! Why are you still looking! Yin Shaojie!”
It was only then that Yin Shaojie turned his gaze back. In a patronizing tone, he said, “Okay, okay, okay, I’ll stop looking. I was only teasing you. How can that girl be prettier than you?”
However, he looked over at the girl again as he said this.
“Yin Shaojie!” Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t stand it anymore and almost slammed the table.
Yin Shaojie finally dropped his act. Smiling, he held her little hand and comforted her. “Okay, I’m not going to look anymore. There’s nothing to see anyway.”
“I saw your eyes looking dumbstruck just now. What do you mean by ‘nothing to see’?” Mu Xiaoxiao crossed her arms. Her tone was sour and her jealousy was so evident that he could smell it in the air.
Yin Shaojie spread her fingers out and interlaced his fingers with hers.
“I just like to tease you. Can’t you tell?” He thought she looked serious so he explained his reasoning hastily.
Mu Xiaoxiao’s tone softened. “Who told you to make me angry on purpose?”
“Wasn’t it you who started it?” Yin Shaojie said amusedly.
Mu Xiaoxiao pouted as she said, “I was only… joking. Couldn’t you tell?”
“You said that so seriously earlier, though. Also,” Yin Shaojie looked behind him and pointed to Nimo and said, “Don’t think I didn’t notice you looking past me every now and then. Who are you looking at if not him?”
