If you're not going to marry me, why are you flirting? If you dare run away, I'll sever yo

"That sounds wonderful, sister, you play so well!"

After the song ended.

Su Qing clapped her hands, her eyes filled with admiration.

Even Qi Nan, who was lying on the floor, casually chimed in, "Xia, I suddenly feel like playing the harmonica too. Can you let me try?"

"don't want."

Xia Ningqi refused very decisively.

You know, this thing is blown mouth-to-mouth. If it were given to Qi Nan, wouldn't that be the same as indirect kissing?

"mean."

The words fell.

Xia Ningqi stepped on Qi Nan's stomach.

He coughed.

"What are you doing? I feel like throwing up my dinner."

"I'm sorry, it was an accident."

That's really perfunctory...

The time that follows.

Xia Ningqi taught Su Qing the simplest way to play the instrument.

Because she is very smart, she learns very quickly and can learn things in no time.

"Yay! Playing the harmonica is so much fun! Xiaoqing, I want to ask my dad to buy me a harmonica when I get back, so I can learn lots of songs from Sister Xia."

"what?"

Su Qing looked at Xia Ningqi, "Sister, are you unwilling to teach Xiao Qing?"

Xia Ningqi quickly waved her hand, "No, that's not what I meant."

Rather than saying she was unwilling, she was actually more happy inside because she liked the feeling of being needed and cared for.

"So that means you agree?"

Xia Ningqi patted her head. "Okay, I agree."

Upon hearing this...

Su Qing hugged her arm tightly, rubbing her chubby little face against Xia Ningqi, "Sister Xia, you're so kind. I shouldn't have called you a bad woman before."

"It's okay, I don't mind."

"So, Xiao Qing is going to marry Brother Nan in the future, are you not bothered?"

Xia Ningqi was taken aback, then quickly waved her hand, "How could I possibly mind? I don't even like him."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true."

"All right...."

Xia Ningqi placed her hand on her thigh, gripping the fair skin with increased pressure, leaving a barely noticeable red mark.

But just as she was stealing glances at Qi Nan's reaction...

But I saw that he was already sleeping soundly, and was even snoring.

"Is my brother asleep?"

"It seems so..."

Xia Ningqi covered her face.

This guy is really carefree; he can still sleep like this. He must have been a pig reincarnated in his past life.

but...

Xia Ningqi's gaze fell on Qi Nan's face.

He thought to himself.

When he's not acting up, he's actually quite normal, even kind of inexplicably handsome...

"What are you thinking about, sister?"

Just as Xia Ningqi was in a daze.

Su Qing, who was standing next to her, reached out and poked her face with her finger.

"N-nothing..."

Coming to her senses, Xia Ningqi blushed slightly, then quickly straightened up. "It's getting late, I'll head back now. Xiao Qing, you should go to sleep too, staying up late isn't good for your health."

"Okay, Xiao Qing understands."

After ending the conversation, Xia Ningqi hurriedly returned to her room.

After closing the door.

She leaned against the iron gate and slowly slid down to sit on the floor.

A pair of slender, white hands covered her flushed face.

Honestly... what was I even thinking just now...?

on Monday

Tang Rou was so excited that she almost pressed the phone screen against Lin Xiaoxiao's face.

"Xiaoxiao, have you heard? Brother Ye Fan assisted the police in solving a case and successfully dismantled a gang kidnapping den."

"real?"

"Of course it's true, it's going viral on the forums."

Lin Xiaoxiao took the phone and saw an interview on it, which was a conversation between the reporter and Ye Fan.

"As a witness to the kidnapping, how did you assist the police in apprehending the kidnappers?"

Ye Fan took a sip of water and spoke slowly, "I remembered the license plate number of the kidnappers' car. There were no surveillance cameras in that area, but luckily I was calm enough to remember this detail."

"How were the assailants subdued at the scene? Can you tell us a little about what happened?"

"I assisted another witness in subduing him."

"I see," the female reporter nodded admiringly. "I never imagined that Ye Fan was not only handsome but also so brave."

I glanced at the script.

The female reporter continued, "I also heard that someone was injured while shielding the little girl from a knife attack. Is this true?"

"It is indeed true, but he was too careless. This situation could have been avoided, but it almost resulted in a death."

Ye Fan attributed the police officers' mistakes at the scene to Qi Nan.

"Okay, is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Ye Fan looked at the camera and said seriously, "I hope everyone can remain calm when encountering such a crisis, and at the same time, not be too careless like that injured comrade on the scene."

"Yes, that's well said. We won't bother you any longer then."

...

Ye Fan nodded, and the video ended there.

In the classroom.

Lin Xiaoxiao became infatuated, "Brother Ye Fan is so brave! He even stood up for the kidnappers. He truly deserves to be my Prince Charming."

However, she quickly became listless again.

"What's wrong, Xiaoxiao? Why are you suddenly unhappy?"

"He didn't tell me about something so important right away. Don't you think it's because he doesn't care about me?"

"How could that be? You borrowed so much money from him, and you're the most beautiful girl in our college. What reason would he have not to like you?" Tang Rou comforted her. "If you're really worried, you can just send him a message and ask."

Following Tang Rou's advice, Lin Xiaoxiao typed on the screen, "Brother Ye Fan, I heard you helped the police catch a kidnapping gang this week? Is that true?"

The other party did not reply immediately.

If it were sent to Qi Nan in the past, three voice messages would have been sent by now.

Several more minutes passed.

Tang Rou explained to Ye Fan, "Maybe Brother Ye Fan is just busy right now..."

This reason is far-fetched.

After all, it's early morning class time now. Although Ye Fan is in a different major from them, he also has classes this morning. Unless he skipped class, his phone must be on him.

Lin Xiaoxiao gripped her phone tightly. "He probably didn't even set me as a special contact."

at the same time.

At the classroom door, Qi Nan and Xia Ningqi walked in side by side.

Their looks and figures are a perfect match; to outsiders, they seem like a perfect couple.

of course.

This is assuming we set aside their past grievances...
