Xie Xiao looked at the straw that was extended in front of his eyes.
The milk tea cup was quite large, and those slender, pale hands held the cup, gently delivering it to his lips.
Upon closer inspection, it seemed to tremble slightly. Your source is m-vl|em|p,yr
Xie Xiao thought she must be nervous, because he felt a bit nervous too.
Luo Yanran seemed to be looking at him, but her gaze was always somewhat evasive.
In the bustling night market, this scene in the corner actually didn't attract much attention.
Yet, both of them felt inexplicably nervous.
Perhaps because Xie Xiao had not moved for too long, Luo Yanran's puzzled gaze fell on his face, "Aren't you going to drink?"
"I will," Xie Xiao said without thinking.
Then he opened his mouth and took a big sip of milk tea, nearly choking on it.
The sound of coughing drew the attention of Lin Yu and the others in front, who turned to look.
Xie Xiao waved his hand, indicating he was fine, just choked on the milk tea.
Lin Yu rolled his eyes somewhat speechlessly.
At this time, Liu Ou was helping by packing up, as grandma was tired and Lin Yu was making rice balls under grandma's supervision.
Then Liu Ou suddenly realized something was off. Didn't Xie Xiao just buy two cups of milk tea?
One for her, and one for Luoluo.
Liu Ou's eyes widened suddenly and turned back again.
Then she saw Luo Yanran just putting the milk tea into her own mouth.
Liu Ou paused for a moment. Ah, so was she overthinking it?
At that moment, Xie Xiao, seeing Luo Yanran's somewhat frantic movement of lifting the milk tea to her lips, first thought, were they indirectly kissing?
He had just drunk from this milk tea.
In fact, Luo Yanran was also stunned; Xie Xiao's cough had drawn too much attention.
She felt somewhat panicked.
At that time, not knowing what she was thinking, she put the straw Xie Xiao had just used into her own mouth.
It was the slightly moist straw that reminded her, just now, Xie Xiao had taken a big sip from this straw...
At that moment, she froze in place, not knowing whether to spit out the straw or to continue holding it in her mouth seemed wrong too.
What was she doing, aah?
Just as Luo Yanran was about to mentally collapse, Xie Xiao lightly coughed, "I… I'll go check on Lin Yu and the others."
Then he stood up and walked over.
Heaven knows his face must have been a bit red.
But he knew if he didn't leave now, the girl opposite him might combust.
Thinking this, he couldn't help but turn his head for a glance.
And then he saw Luo Yanran already lying on the table,
The cup of milk tea was set aside.
He couldn't help but curve his lips upward, having indirectly kissed.
This felt more exhilarating than a reward.
"What are you smiling so gleefully about?" Liu Ou's haunting voice arose.
Xie Xiao came back to his senses, slightly embarrassed, "Nothing much."
Liu Ou looked over him for a while, exhaled and said, "You can't lie, young man, your ears are very red."
After saying that, she put the plastic bag into his hand, "Come on, help pack."
Then she walked over.
Lin Yu took a moment to glance at them.
On the other side, Luo Yanran lay on the table, her face buried in her arms.
Yet, her other hand uncontrollably gently touched her own soft lips.
The slightly moist sensation of the straw seemed to linger still.
"Luoluo, are you feeling unwell?" Liu Ou's voice rang out just as Luo Yanran quickly lowered her hand that had been touching her lips, feeling inexplicably guilty.
Worried that Liu Ou would notice something off, she quickly raised her head, "It's nothing."
Looking at her flushed face, Liu Ou found it hard to convince herself that it was really nothing.
It was really hard to believe.
She glanced again in Xie Xiao's direction, lowering her voice a bit, "Did you two just do something naughty in secret? You both should look in a mirror; you don't look innocent at all!"
"We didn't!" Luo Yanran retorted with a flushed face, "We didn't do anything! How could we possibly... in a place like this?"
"So, you mean if it were a more private place, it would be okay?" Liu Ou teased her, then watched as her face reddened even more, her hand moving to cover her mouth.
Liu Ou dodged away, "Come on, just a casual discussion. Our little Luoluo is just too innocent, huh?"
Luo Yanran was genuinely scared of her now.
Her mouth was just too capable.
Luo Yanran, holding her hand, whispered softly, "Really, we didn't do anything. We just... accidentally used the same straw."
It was clearly nothing, and she had done the same with Liu Ou before, but for some reason, Luo Yanran felt it was different.
Because it was Xie Xiao.
Liu Ou dragged out her tone with an "oh".
"I thought something serious happened, but it turns out you indirectly kissed, huh?" Liu Ou whispered teasingly into Luo Yanran's ear, "You're blushing over this? If you had actually kissed, would you two combust?"
"Enough, stop it," Luo Yanran pleaded, then couldn't help asking, "Did Xie Xiao, also turn red?"
"His face was okay, but his ears were bright red," Liu Ou laughed a bit, "Two little innocents, huh?"
Luo Yanran couldn't help but steal a glance at Xie Xiao; she couldn't see his face or clearly discern if his ears were really red.
But Liu Ou would never lie to her.
Her heart, which felt like it was about to explode, suddenly felt as if she had drunk ice soda, becoming very comfortable and soothing.
It turns out he was just as shy as she was.
Liu Ou, looking at her friend's expression, helplessly shook her head, thinking about the rotten smell of love.
How could it not be concealed even by the myriad of delicacies at the night market?
Xie Xiao became calm after staying busy for a while.
He then realized that he and Lin Yu had made a mistake this time.
Too many people came tonight; they couldn't wait until ten to start the live stream. They probably would run out of rice balls by nine.
Moreover, many of them were classmates.
Actually, at this time, everyone had just had dinner and, although visiting the night market, they would more likely choose to snack a bit.
Yet, this group had all come to buy rice balls, and Xie Xiao and Lin Yu knew why.
They were simply using their own little schemes to help a fellow student.
The old lady, looking at each youthful, naive face, had her eyes full of smiles.
They were all good kids.
As a result, they could pack up the stall before nine o'clock.
Xie Xiao was silent.
Lin Yu was silent too.
Finally, Xie Xiao sighed, "Alright, it's good that we shot a lot of material today. Let's go home, edit it, and post the video."
Lin Yu said, "Send it to me later; I'll do it. I've already downloaded the editing software."
Xie Xiao didn't immediately refuse, "I'll do the first one, show you the style, and then you can take over, how about that?"
Lin Yu gave him a look, then suddenly said, "Xie Xiao, why do I always feel like you're very familiar with all this stuff? Whether it's live streaming or shooting videos."
Xie Xiao's heartbeat slowed, and he looked at Lin Yu.
This was the second time Lin Yu had noticed something off about him.
He flashed a smile, "Do you know what traits a top student has?"
Lin Yu's brows twitched, sensing that he was about to boast again.
Sure enough, the shamelessly thick-faced person in front of him smiled and said, "We top students just learn everything fast and excel spectacularly; do you feel it now?"
