Chapter 922: The Passerby in the Campus Story Rejects Puppy Love 45
Miaomiao stared at Xie Yanzhou's overly calm eyes, and thought of his action of touching her ear just now. She was completely stunned and her brain was buzzing.
Miaomiao really didn't expect that the lie she made up just to get rid of Xie Yanzhou's "close care" and make the head teacher make up his mind to separate them was actually accepted by Xie Yanzhou directly, and he even openly admitted that "he treated her differently"!
How was this different from the obvious one she'd been afraid of? Was the difference the veiled way it was said?
But Miaomiao felt that she would rather time go back to an hour ago, so she might as well not say anything.
"Um, I... I really made it up!"
Miaomiao was so anxious that her voice changed, and she subconsciously wanted to dodge back when he rubbed her ears with his fingers.
But while she was moving, Xie Yanzhou gently grabbed her wrist and she did not escape his sphere of influence.
His palm was filled with an undeniable heat, but the force was not strong, yet it was like an iron clamp, making it difficult for her to break free.
She still has some dignity at school, and it's not appropriate for her to pull and tug in public.
"Okay, I know you made it up."
Xie Yanzhou smiled perfunctorily, as if he was coaxing a child asking for candy, but a hint of cunning flashed across his eyes so quickly that Miaomiao couldn't see it clearly.
What Xie Yanzhou said was of course the truth. He knew that her attitude towards him was just closer than that of a classmate, but she was still not smart enough.
But when responding to Miaomiao's words, he deliberately used a coaxing attitude.
So, the words are true, but the speaking posture is different, and the context and meaning naturally become negation.
Only a fool would seriously ask Miaomiao whether her love for him is true or not.
All he wanted was this opportunity, the opportunity to truly get involved with Miaomiao, and this opportunity came just at the right time.
Xie Yanzhou deliberately paused for two seconds and then continued.
“I know Miaomiao, what you said was just a lie, but I am serious about you.
Miaomiao, I really treat you differently than I treat anyone else."
He deliberately slowed down his speech, but he was so excited that he could hardly contain the burning greed in his heart, which was different from his indifferent appearance at this moment. The mere thought that he could finally blurt out his love for her made him so excited that he could not control himself.
"Miao Miao, I know you're afraid of premature love and that it will affect your studies. I have the same idea as you.
Our main task at this stage is to study, so let’s study hard together. As for matters of the heart, wait until you are eighteen years old and can make mature decisions before making them, okay?
Now, our relationship won’t change, we’re still best friends, right?”
Xie Yanzhou deliberately brought up the time node of "18 years old", which not only gave Miaomiao a clear "safety boundary", but also quietly engraved the possibility of "being together in the future" into her heart.
Miaomiao opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but found that she could not find any reason to refute.
Xie Yanzhou didn't even make any requests that crossed the line. He just used the reasons of "studying together" and "waiting until both of them mature before making a decision about this relationship", leaving her with no right to refuse.
After all, she was the one who messed up their relationship in the first place...
Miaomiao looked up at Xie Yanzhou. His eyes were frank and sincere at this moment, but the hand that was holding her wrist seemed to be shaking slightly as if he was uneasy, which made her feel that if she refused him like this, she would be a bit of a piece of shit.
"If, after I turn eighteen, I still think it's better to be friends, wouldn't that be a kind of hurt to you?"
Miaomiao exhaled. This was the only question she needed to know.
"If I make you feel this way, it means I'm not good enough. It's my problem. How can it be hurtful? Isn't this a spur to me?"
Xie Yanzhou continued to coax her calmly, feeling that the little girl had already stepped one foot into his hunting range, which made him tremble with excitement.
As for hurting someone, he won't have that kind of hurt. He will just plan every step to keep the two of them together forever.
After all, she is so soft-hearted, how could she really bear to hurt him?
On the contrary, he would shamelessly take advantage of her softness, and eventually take her away, trapping her in his arms forever.
"Okay, now that we've made it clear, can we put today's matter behind us?"
Miaomiao's voice weakened. When she thought about the stupid things she had done today, she felt like thunder was rolling in her sky.
"Of course, we are each other's best friends now, aren't we?
Friends naturally plan for the future together, but as for what happens after the age of eighteen, we'll just leave it to time."
Xie Yanzhou restrained his urge to hold her in his arms. He gently released her wrist and patted her shoulder instead, his movements natural and gentle.
Xie Yanzhou's concluding words were more like a piece of soft cotton, directly blocking everything Miaomiao wanted to say.
Just when Miaomiao thought that they could finally go back and put an end to this embarrassing memory, Xie Yanzhou suddenly turned around, took a step forward, gently opened his arms, and hugged her in his arms.
Miaomiao was caught off guard and hugged tightly. The familiar fragrance lingered at her nose, and she was so confused that she forgot to push him away.
However, this time the hug was looser than half a month ago, and it only lasted for four or five seconds.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just... kind of happy. I can finally talk to you openly.
It’s a hug between friends.”
Xie Yanzhou let go of her hand without waiting for Miaomiao to push him away. When his voice sounded in her ears, it was even a little bit hoarse and barely noticeable.
He counted to five in his mind before letting go. This was the sweet taste of his greed and obsession with Miaomiao that was almost about to break through the shackles.
