Once he sat down, Chi Shengxu put an arm around his shoulder and said, âKid, not bad. Youâre my idol now.â
Mo Liuxi took Chi Shengxuâs hand off and replied, âThank you, but we barely know each other.â
Chi Shengxu blinked with disappointment. Except for Nian Junting, Mo Liuxi was the only one who was so unfriendly to him.
Nian Junting was his rival in love, but he didnât remember doing anything to displease Mo Liuxi.
âItâs alright, your sister and I are good friends,â Chi Shengxu said with a smile. âYour mother and my mother used to be classmates. We should be friends. Come and visit my family at New Year.â
âIâm not interested,â Mo Liuxi said as he lowered his head and ate his food with a spoon using his left hand.
Zhang Hongchuan regretted coming over. âChi, Yan, please forgive him. He doesnât mean it.â
âI understand.â Chi Shengxu nodded, âHeâs cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He punched Mr. Jia right in the face. Thatâs how I know heâs a righteous person. Isnât that right, Su?â
âYeah, yeah, I really appreciate him,â Yan Su said.
She glanced at Mo Liuxi while he clumsily ate with the spoon. Zhang Hongchuan also noticed it and hurriedly picked some food for Mo Liuxi.
Chi Shengxu turned and continued talking to Yan Su. âWhat do you think about my idea? I think itâs going to be interesting.â
âI need to talk to my manager about it,â Yan Su nodded and said. âBut I think itâll be good.â
Mo Liuxi frowned slightly and shoved Zhang Hongchuan under the table.
âWhat are you guys talking about?â Zhang Hongchuan hurriedly asked.
âShengxu invited me to perform at Xia City TV station on Christmas Eve. He wants me to sing with him,â Yan Su said.
âIâm not very good at singing, so I asked her for a favor. Sheâs the only singer I know,â Chi Shengxu said with a laugh.
Mo Liuxi nodded and said, âSince you know that youâre not good at singing, you shouldnât perform. Spare the audience and donât ruin their Christmas.â
âLiuxi...â Zhang Hongchuan noticed Chi Shengxuâs face darken so he gave Mo Liuxi an eye signal.
Mo Liuxi blinked and continued. âIâm I wrong? Isnât it inappropriate for an amateur to sing with a professional singer? If she hit the high notes, you wouldnât be able to follow. High notes are what sheâs good at.â
Yan Su frowned.
Chi Shengxu carefully asked, âLiuxi, did I offend you somehow?â
Mo Liuxi glanced at him coldly. He wanted to say, Of course. You shouldnât have been so close to Yan Su. Instead of speaking, he remained silent.
âI get it,â Chi Shengxu said. âYour brother-in-law sent you here, didnât he? Nian Junting is really unkind. Sangsang is pregnant already, yet heâs still targeting me. Is this necessary?â
âYes, it is.â Mo Liuxi nodded. âI admire my brother-in-law. Iâll do whatever he says.â
Yan Su was speechless. He was talking barefaced nonsense.
The corner of Chi Shengxuâs mouth slightly twitched. He hurriedly finished the rice in his bowl and said, âSu, Fan Jing, letâs go. Donât you want some milk tea?â
Noticing that Mo Liuxiâs face immediately turned sour, Yan Su hurriedly smiled and said, âNo, thereâs no space for milk tea anymore. Itâs still early, so I plan to go to the library. I have an unfinished book.â
âAlright, weâre going in the same direction. Letâs walk together,â Chi Shengxu said.
Ge waited for a little while before leaving with Yan Su and Fan Jing.
