Xiao Su wanted to say that other girls would be more restrained when they yawned, but he swallowed the words after some thoughts. Jiang Xiaobai touched her nose and looked at his back. “Why did you come out alone?”
Upon hearing that, Xiao Su frowned. “Who else are you expecting?”
Jiang Xiaobai laughed. “Who else? I saw a girl talking to you when I came out.”
She then approached him and wanted to put her hand on his shoulder, but she soon realized that she wasn’t tall enough. Therefore, she pulled his sleeves and teased him with a smile, “You’re not too bad yourself, Casanova. You must be elated that girls are flirting with you even at a birthday party.”
Xiao Su was speechless before he pushed Jiang Xiaobai’s hand away and said, “Be serious.”
Jiang Xiaobai originally never cared that her hand was being knocked off, but when she saw the person who appeared behind Xiao Su, she quickly held his hands and fell gently toward him. Her body fell into his embrace without any warning and her fragrance was flowing towards him, which caused his entire body froze as he wanted to push her away subconsciously. Jiang Xiaobai whispered suddenly, “Play along. Someone is coming over.”
Xiao Su was about to say something when he suddenly remembered that he pretended to be her boyfriend. Since she needed to do so, he should then…
Just as he thought about it, Jiang Xiaobai’s arms were already on his neck. Her hands were soft and her fair, smooth skin was just like a freshly peeled hard boiled egg. Her hands brushed across his neck as she leaned her head on his chest. “My Xiao Su, why didn’t you tell me that you are coming to my grandmother’s birthday celebration? You gave me a fright by turning up out of the blue.”
Xiao Su didn’t know what to say. Jiang Xiaobai’s voice was gentle and coquettish—it was obvious that she was pretending and her tone made Xiao Su’s eyes twitch. This girl… Just how many faces does she have?
Jiang Mei almost had a heart attack when she approached them and heard Jiang Xiaobai’s flirtatious words. Seeing that Jiang Xiaobai leaned on Xiao Su yet the man never pushed her away, Jiang Mei felt her blood boiling and held back on her emotions before she walked forward. “Xiaobai, Mr. Xiao is our special guest tonight. Although I understand your desire to find a boyfriend, it’s inappropriate for you to cuddle with Mr. Xiao in public. Don’t you think so?”
The reason why she was so confident was because she had just heard Xiao Su saying in public that Jiang Xiaobai was merely a friend. If a man truly loved a woman, he wouldn’t have said that. He would have wanted everyone to know that he had a crush on her and even announce to the world that the woman belonged to him. But Xiao Su didn’t—he said they were friends, which meant that they weren’t in a relationship. And now, Jiang Xiaobai was hugging his neck and being so mushy with him—she was truly shameless!
Jiang Xiaobai was pleased to see that Jiang Mei was mad. She never moved and rested in Xiao Su’s embrace as she held him tighter. Jiang Xiaobai’s body was so close to Xiao Su’s body that he was on the verge of losing his willpower. After all, he could feel her body’s curves due to the intimate skinship.
“What’s wrong, Jiang Mei? Why are you so upset that I’m holding my own boyfriend?”
Jiang Mei’s eyes widened as she pointed at Jiang Xiaobai. “What did you just say?”
Jiang Xiaobai smiled. “You didn’t hear me well enough? Well, I shall repeat my words then. I said, do you have a problem with me hugging my own boyfriend? If you still can’t hear me clearly enough, there may be something wrong with your ears. You should go to the hospital and get a checkup before it’s too late.”
“Jiang Xiaobai!” Jiang Mei was provoked and shouted out loud, “Did you say Mr. Xiao is your boyfriend? How is that possible?”
“Why is that impossible?” Jiang Xiaobai became hyperactive as her fingers continuously moved around Xiao Su’s neck. She scratched Xiao Su with her fingers before picking at her own nails. In short, her fingers were busy. While she didn’t feel anything, it was a different story for Xiao Su, whom she hugged. The man was nearly 187cm tall and stood there like a log—his whole body had stiffened.
“Mr. Xiao said that you were just friends in front of everyone yet now you say that you are in a relationship? How is that possible? Mr. Xiao, am I right? You clearly said that you are just friends with Xiaobai.”
“Oh?” Jiang Xiaobai looked at Xiao Su when she heard that. She took one of her arms and caressed his chin, asking, “You told them that we are just friends?”
A thin layer of sweat broke out on Xiao Su’s forehead as he stared at the alluring woman in his arms. She is even more alluring than a vixen. Why does she have to move around and touch my chin when she is speaking? Does she really think that I’m a doll with no reaction? So you want to act, huh?
Xiao Su’s pupils darkened considerably. He suddenly grabbed Jiang Xiaobai’s fingers, which shocked her as she never expected him to grab her all of a sudden. After he caught hold of her fingers, she realized that his fingers were warm—it wasn’t the usual body temperature and much higher than hers. Jiang Xiaobai was a little surprised and thought to herself, What is going on? Just then, she heard Xiao Su’s hoarse voice.
“Well, I was afraid that you would blame me for confessing, so I gave you the choice. It’s up to you to decide.”
Jiang Xiaobai was speechless. Huh? Since when did this man become so…
Before she could react, Xiao Su continued, “If you say that I’m your boyfriend, then I am. If you refuse and say that I’m not, I won’t force you too. After all, it’s up to you.”
Jiang Mei was stunned and looked at Xiao Su in disbelief. “M-Mr. Xiao, you just…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Xiao Su looked at her with a cold stare. “Miss, this is between me and my girlfriend. Does it have anything to do with you?”
Jiang Mei couldn’t say a word, but she wasn’t the only one who was unable to react. Even Jiang Xiaobai was stunned as she never expected Xiao Su to speak up and hold her hands when he said those words with his hoarse voice. For some reason, this caused Jiang Xiaobai’s heart to race. On the other hand, Jiang Mei bit her lower lip and glared at Jiang Xiaobai.
“Why are you glaring at me, Jiang Mei? Haven’t you dated before? Haven’t you seen couples fooling around?” Jiang Xiaobai then deliberately hooked her hands around Xiao Su’s neck before she tip-toed and gave him a peck on his cheek in front of Jiang Mei. Xiao Su’s body, which was already tense, became more rigid in that instant.
