The classroom immediately became silent as Yin Shaojie uttered those words.
The students thought that they had heard wrong. Some were even rubbing their eyes to confirm that what they saw was real.
What did Young Master Jie say?
He told Mu Xiaoxiao that she didnât need to explain?
The onlookers were stupefied, let alone Bai Meijiao, who was stunned and had even forgotten to scratch her itch.
Is this person really the Young Master Jie that she knew?
Why⦠Why can he say such pampering words to Mu Xiaoxiao?
Though Bai Meijiao had suffered many blows, this was the greatest shock to her.
âNo, this is not right⦠This canât be rightâ¦â She looked to be suffering and grieving as she shook her head like a nut job.
My face is so itchy. So itchy!
She scratched continuously as she couldnât stand the itch. The skin on her face was broken by her nails, and streaks of blood could be seen.
Bai Meijiao started crying. No, I wonât accept this! No, noâ¦
The salty tears seeped into her wounded skin, and she grimaced in pain.
âItâs so itchy! It hurts!â
Bai Meijiao suddenly snapped out of it and stared at her fingernails in a daze. There were traces of blood on them.
âAhââ she screamed miserably.
My face!
Like a malicious spirit, Bai Meijiao flew out of the classroom.
The classroom was quiet for a second, then whispers followed as they started their discussion.
âDid you see Bai Meijiaoâs face? How horrible. Do you think she will be disfigured?â
âIf itâs just ordinary itching powder, it may not disfigure her. But if she had been more malicious and put some other ingredients in, that would be hard to say.â
âHehe, she is suffering the consequences of her actions.
âExactly, she deserved it!â
Yin Shaojie reached out his long fingers and raised Mu Xiaoxiaoâs chin to let her look into his eyes.
He raised his eyebrows and asked, âWhatâs wrong? Are you pitying her?â
His pitch-black eyes seemed to have seen through her heart, and his gaze was deep and penetrating.
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head, and like a peeved child she said, âShe wanted to hurt me. Iâm not going to feel pity for herâ¦â
However, the thought of disfigurement was unimaginably horrifying to a girl.
âSometimes you are just too kind.â Yin Shaojie pinched her soft cheek. Staring at it for a moment, he felt like giving it a kiss. But with so many onlookers around, he had no choice but to resist it.
Mu Xiaoxiao frowned as she pushed away his hand and protested, âIâm not like those sweet, fair, foolish girls in dramas!â
Yin Shaojie smiled and said, âWho says you arenât? Donât you always act foolishly? Look at your face. Isnât it fair? And sweetâ¦â
A scorching gaze fell on her tender lips.
That little mouth is so sweet. She is definitely sweet.
However, he couldnât say it out loud. Him secretly kissing her was still a secret.
Yin Shaojie was secretly smiling from the thought of the secret.
âWhat about being sweet?â Though Mu Xiaoxiao didnât like him saying her foolish, she was very curious how he would explain what was so sweet about her.
Is it my smile that is sweet?
Yin Shaojie coughed, and his elegant face blushed faintly. He tried to hide it and said, âSweet? I donât know. Go figure!â
Dissatisfied, Mu Xiaoxiao pouted and said, âIt can be a sweet smile! How is your language standard so poor?â
It was rare that he had praise for her, yet he couldnât even come up with something so simple. How maddening!
Is this bastard deliberately not saying it?
