Under Xie Xinglin’s gaze and his smile that wasn’t quite a smile, Su Qiuge felt that her cheeks were burning. She inwardly wondered what was happening, she felt that she must have some sort of disease with the way she kept finding trouble for herself.

As a result, she was so nervous that she said without thinking, “I already said no. What, do you want me to imitate it for you to hear?”

Almost the second after she finished, the entire room fell silent. Su Qiuge abruptly shut her mouth.Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

F*CK——

What did she!! just said!!

WHAT AHHHHHHH!!

Xie Xinglin quietly watched her as he supported his chin. His eyes were defined, hooked on the inside and curled on the outside. When he was at school, it usually appeared tranquil and undisturbed, like a sheet of waveless ice. But at this moment, there seemed to be a crack as the emotions escaped like water. It was endlessly dark under this layer of ice, the look in his eyes was somewhat scary.

His Adam’s apple rolled slightly on his slender neck, and there seemed to be a sarcastic smile on his lips as he said in a husky tone, “It’s not impossible.”

“?”

Su Qiuge’s eyes widened.

What kind of obscene words is he saying in broad daylight??

When she was about to say something to alleviate the awkwardness of that moment, she saw Xie Xinglin glance at her with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile. Then, he unhurriedly said, “You finish the assignment first, then we will discuss this issue.”

Is this praising her for having a big appetite, or is this praising her for not wasting food?

She watched as Xie Xinglin left. Then she couldn’t help but say, “Thank you for today, I feel like I’ve made a lot of progress.”

Xie Xinglin didn’t turn around, but he faintly said, “Taking money for work, I only did what I was supposed to do.”

Su Qiuge turned her head and looked at the two servings of takeaway on the table. She thought, as expected, it was exactly what Han Ming had said. Xie Xinglin, this person, was unwilling to take, even a tiny bit, advantage of others.

This type of person was probably most afraid of getting involved with others. It seemed like they didn’t owe anyone, but in fact, they didn’t have any deep relations with anyone either. Ultimately, they only had themselves.

When Su Qiuge thought to this point, she unexpectedly looked distracted for a moment.

Then, she quietly opened the takeaway and sat down for lunch.

Forget it.

No matter what, it had nothing to do with her.

She had already regarded Xie Xinglin as a friend, and even suspiciously felt some sympathy and wanted to provide him with some financial support, but it was unlikely for him to accept it.

But no matter what, regardless of what difficulties Xie Xinglin may face now, in the future, he will likely overcome it one by one. And in the end, he’ll achieve meteoric success, so there was no need for her to deliberately help him. It was already difficult enough for her to live her own life well.
