When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Chapter 1117: Chapter 1117: Being Provoked

As she was thinking, the person beside her returned. Zhou Chengchen raised her eyes to look at the newcomer and pursed her lips, "Is this... from you?"

Xi Siyan sat down beside her and surprisingly smiled, "Yes."

The wounds from the past few days vanished instantly. Zhou Chengchen took a deep breath and showed a sweet smile on her face, "Why did you suddenly think of bringing me breakfast?"

"There’s something I need your help with."

"..."

So, this means that he needs her help and thus brought her breakfast. Is this trying to please her?

Though a bit utilitarian, Zhou Chengchen still felt satisfied and waved her hand spiritedly, "Alright, I’ll help."

Xi Siyan looked at her and couldn’t help but chuckle. She didn’t even know what it was about and made such a claim; isn’t that silly?

Rarely, Xi Siyan jokingly said, "Aren’t you afraid I’ll sell you off?"

Zhou Chengchen already bit into a tart, speaking unclearly, "Doesn’t matter, if it’s you, just sell me off."

As she spoke, she even felt a bit flushed. Such eagerness was slightly embarrassing, yet Zhou Chengchen had always been thick-skinned. She had clearly told this person in front of her from the beginning that she liked him. Now, although feeling a little awkward, she didn’t feel much shyness.

Xi Siyan was taken aback by her words, noticing a bit of tart crumb at Zhou Chengchen’s mouth corner. Before thinking further, his hand had already reached out.

His thumb brushed across Zhou Chengchen’s mouth corner, freezing both of them for a moment.

Xiao Rou, after finishing her homework, turned her head and saw this scene. Her mouth opened wide, and the paper in her hand fell to the ground. Oh my, what did she just witness?

Xi Siyan’s fair ears were tinged with a thin layer of red, and the usually thick-skinned Zhou Chengchen’s face turned as red as a monkey’s bottom.

If it weren’t for the abrupt ringing of the class bell, she felt she might have ignited herself.

That brief moment of intimacy was fleeting but its intensity was too high, leaving Zhou Chengchen dazed for the entire morning.

Even when she went to lunch with Xiao Rou, she was still absent-minded.

The two of them walked out of the cafeteria, and Xiao Rou went to buy milk tea. Zhou Chengchen waited outside, with girls beside her holding freshly bought tarts. The enticing scent drifted over, reminding Zhou Chengchen of the scene from the morning.

She spaced out again.

Suddenly, someone bumped into her, and she felt a burning sensation on her hand as a cup of freshly made hot milk tea spilled onto her.

Considering the cold weather, milk tea was usually made hot, slightly scalding. Despite the spill not being extremely painful, her hand’s back turned red.

More embarrassingly, Zhou Chengchen wore a white coat today. Not only did the coffee-colored milk tea stand out prominently on the white coat, but it also absorbed quickly.

Zhou Chengchen frowned and turned to look at the culprit.

Chen Youran looked indifferent, "Oh, sorry, I just got tripped. Why don’t you take it off, and I’ll help wash it?"

The suggestion sounds pleasant, but with such cold weather, the only clothing underneath the coat is her uniform. If she takes it off, she’d surely freeze.

Zhou Chengchen’s expression immediately darkened, "Chen Youran, getting tripped while walking, are you flat-footed?"

"You... Zhou Chengchen, how can you insult me."

"Did I insult you? I clearly insulted you... no, I didn’t insult; I just stated an objective fact."

While speaking, Zhou Chengchen stepped closer to Chen Youran, coldly smiling, "Besides, a gentleman uses words not force; as for me, if I can act, I won’t bother with words. Want to try it?"
