Chapter 106 Inexplicable Passion
She was the one who approached Li Xu.

In fact, Xue Xue had noticed Li Xu a long time ago.

After all, Li Xu is about 1.8 meters tall, has good facial features, and the most important thing is... he is clean.

The cleanliness here does not mean caring about personal hygiene.

This is because most high school students at this age focus on their studies and have no energy to take care of themselves, nor are they too lazy to take care of themselves.

Or maybe there's no such awareness at all...

Most of the boys started growing beards for the first time.

And this kind of beard is not the hard stubble of an adult, but soft and fluffy.

High school boys have complicated emotions about this kind of fluff.

Shaved?

Most people haven't used a razor yet.

For boys of this age, using a razor still seems a little weird...it seems to be a sign of adulthood.

Others say that shaving the hair will make it grow thicker and harder.

Just leave it alone.

Many people hold this mentality and don't take care of it, just following the crowd...so they don't think it's a problem at all.

The final effect is a bit...dirty in the eyes of girls.

After all, Li Xu is an adult, so he naturally doesn't think it's strange to use a razor.

The hairstyle has also maintained the front spiky style that became popular in later generations.

Standing there, tall, clean and refreshing.

Xue Xue likes cleanliness.

Li Xu meets all her definitions of clean.

More importantly...

Unlike most boys of his age, Li Xu is neither dull nor jumpy. He stays there quietly, but his eyes are lively.

At this time, Xue Xue invited Li Xu into the Internet cafe, put away the umbrella, and the two stood at the door.

Xue Xue asked, "So... tell me about your topic in detail?"

Li Xu smiled and said, "Are you interested?"

"How can I be interested if you don't tell me?"

"If you're interested, I'll tell you."

Xue Xue chuckled twice and said with a smile: "Then you'd better not say anything..."

Li Xu blinked... Good guy, he doesn't fall for it?

Not only did Xue Xue not fall for Li Xu's tricks, she immediately followed up with another sentence: "Compared to that, I'm actually more interested in you."

Li Xu was stunned for a moment.

He glanced at Xue Xue.

Xue Xue's short hair is not much longer than that of an average boy, but this tomboyish hairstyle does not make her look like a boy at all.

Whether viewed from a distance or up close, she exudes a strong girlish charm.

"You're interested in me?"

In any case, the other party is just a little girl. Although the previous sentence was a bit unexpected, it did not make Li Xu lose his composure.

Li Xu asked slowly: "What are you interested in about me?"

Xue Xue shrugged nonchalantly: "Let's chat, anything is fine, um... what does your family do?"

"My dad owns a company."

"Oh." Xue Xue didn't seem particularly surprised by this, nor did she feel suddenly alienated by Li Xu's words. She still stood there calmly.

"What about your mother?"

"I died when I was a child."

At this point, Xue Xue was suddenly stunned.

"Oh, I'm sorry..."

"It's ok."

"Who else is there in your family besides your father? Do you have a sister or brother?"

"You're asking too many questions. Are you checking my household registration?"

Xue Xue laughed happily: "Why are you so stingy? Just ask what's wrong? You can also ask me...Aren't you curious about me?"

Li Xu thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you often play games here?"

"Get a pentakill in League of Legends ranked and you'll get 50 yuan in internet credit."

"Ah."

"I have one or two thousand dollars in internet fees here, all for free."

Li Xu was silent for a moment. Looking at Xue Xue's expression of pride mixed with a hint of anticipation, he said seriously, "This shows that the owner of this internet cafe is quite trustworthy."

Xue Xue hit Li Xu and said, "You're so annoying! I thought you were going to praise me for my gaming skills."

"Ha ha……"

The rain outside seemed to be a little lighter at this time.

Xue Xue asked again, "Does your father control you strictly?"

Li Xu was silent for a moment. He really didn't know how to answer this question.

"Okay……"

“Why is it okay?”

Li Xu thought about it seriously. He actually hadn't really thought about this question.

If we have to define father's discipline, it should be lax.

You could even say...it kind of lets him go.

"Not strictly." Li Xu shook his head and asked Xue Xue: "What about you? Do your parents control you strictly?"

Xue Xue was silent for a moment, then stared at the rain outside in a daze and spoke slowly.

"It's quite strict..."

"They both started teaching me English when I was very young. At home, my mother only spoke English and my father spoke Chinese, so I was able to speak two languages since I was a child."

"Is your mother a foreigner?"

"Do I look like a mixed race to you?"

"Hmm, it doesn't look like that."

"Don't interrupt me, I'll continue... Then when I was a little older, they started to let me get into math."

"I attended a lot of cram schools when I was young, but they weren't the kind for Mathematical Olympiads. They were advanced cram schools. For example, by the time I was in sixth grade, I had already finished all the math for junior high school."

"But my father and mother wouldn't let me skip a grade, so I had to study step by step."

"When I was a little older, they started to let me know about programming. They bought me a small robot that could be controlled by programming and taught me step by step."

"They said that when I grow up and learn computers and programming, my future in life will be bright."

Li Xu was fascinated by what he heard.

These parents are the ones who truly understand education!
Then think about my own dad... rough, so rough.

"But I don't like it..." Xue Xue shook her head.

There were some things Xue Xue didn't plan to continue saying.

For example, my parents pushed me to learn computer programming and even forced me to participate in that competition, where I won the city's Youth Science and Technology Innovation Award...

But she was often beaten.

If you do something bad or wrong, you will be beaten even if you are a girl.

Fortunately, I have grown up now and can rebel proudly.

Play games whenever you have free time...it's much more fun than programming.

While Xue Xue was lost in thought, she noticed Li Xu's gaze.

Wait a minute...what's that look in his eyes? Why is there envy in it?
Li Xu smiled and said with feeling, "Believe me, your parents are truly wise people... At least when it comes to education, they are much better than my dad."

Xue Xue was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

Many people have said similar things, but no one of her peers has said this, which surprised her.

Why did Li Xu say that?

Suddenly, Xue Xue realized something.

He is a rich young man.

His father... doesn't seem to care much about him.

"Is your father very powerful?" Xue Xue asked.

Li Xu looked at her with a bit of surprise, but still replied: "Yeah, very impressive."

Xue Xue noticed that Li Xu's eyes were very determined when he said this.

It turned out to be the case.

Xue Xue suddenly realized.

He lost his mother when he was young and had a powerful father, but this father probably could not take care of him as carefully as his mother.

It's probably the kind of person who is usually busy working and starting a business outside, and then uses money to make up for the love and care for his son.

A young man who grew up in such an environment had no shortage of material things, but he probably rarely received his father's company...

The bad father has not realized this and has given him great freedom. It is precisely this freedom that makes him feel even more empty.

Although they have good material conditions, they cannot get the proper spiritual satisfaction.

In contrast, although her parents often beat her, their company made her feel happy.

Beneath Li Xu's seemingly calm appearance, his actual outline gradually took shape in Xue Xue's mind.

Although she seems glamorous and bright, she actually desperately desires fatherly love and feels empty and sensitive inside.

Thinking of this, Xue Xue felt a little sorry for him.

Next, the young man had the idea of making some noise to scare his father.

So there was that topic.

That's the whole picture.

Xue Xue figured this out and suddenly raised her head: "Tell me your topic quickly!"

Li Xu was stunned again: "What?"

"I want to join..."

"But……"

"Don't worry, let's scare your dad together!"

"Huh?" Li Xu looked at Xue Xue in surprise.

What is this inexplicable vitality?
What is she so inexplicably excited about?

However, I dare not use the tricks I used on Lei Yinbing on Xue Xue.

The two are not of the same type at all.

Although Li Xu couldn't understand why Xue Xue suddenly announced that she wanted to join his project, he was happy and agreed readily.

"Well... well, you're good at programming, right? I'll give you the lead software development engineer position."

"It's all right!"

"but……"

"But what?"

"Hmm..." Li Xu gave Xue Xue a strange look and shook his head: "Forget it... It's nothing."
