As she expected, her brother had become more thoughtful than before, as he had gotten familiar with her and her friends.
âSure. Su loves milk tea the most.â Luosang pushed Yan Su on the shoulder. Yan Su felt a little awkward. Before, she might consider that as an accident, but now...
She sneakily glanced at Mo Liuxi and found him looking at her as well. âYeah? I didnât know,â he said with a faint smile.
Yan Su stayed silent.
Heâs so good at pretending. He used to see her drink milk tea.
The three of them walked into the shop. Luosang ordered a cookie milk tea, while Yan Su ordered a plain milk tea. When it was Mo Liuxiâs turn, he hesitated a little, then said, âMilk tea, plain, please.â
Luosang curved her lips slightly and said, âAh, you and Su like the same kind of milk tea.â
Yan Su became nervous. She was afraid that Luosang might find out what was going on between her and Mo Liuxi.
Before she said anything, Mo Liuxi had said coldly, âThereâs a special offer today.â
Luosang turned to the small blackboard on the counter. The blackboard indicated that plain milk tea was half-off.
âEh... Liuxi. If you need money, you can tell me...â
He didnât need to save money like that. The milk tea cost no more than twenty.
âItâs not like that. Iâm saving money so I can give it to my future wife.â Mo Liuxi turned around, with his back to the two girls.
Hearing his words, Yan Su lowered her head to look at the tips of her toes, with her mouth corners twitching. She pretended not to hear it.
Luosang blinked and wondered if she misheard him. Her brother had actually talked about giving his money to his future wife. He was never interested in having a girlfriend at all.
She grabbed Mo Liuxi over and said to him, âLiuxi, do you have your eyes on some girl already?â
âNo. I saw Xiao Si and his girlfriend a few days ago. I feel that having a girlfriend would be nice,â Mo Liuxi answered her while watching the shop staff make the milk tea.
âOh. Si and Nuanyi.â Luosang nodded. âI hadnât seen Si ever since he and Nuanyi got together. He used to follow Nian Junting everywhere. Since he disappeared, Junting started following me everywhere... Eh, letâs not talk about that trouble of mine.â
Mo Liuxi and Yan Su were speechless.
Is that really a trouble of yours? Does your husband know how you feel?
The two of them had the same questions.
âYouâre right.â Luosang patted her brother on the shoulder. âIf you found a girl that you like, you have to let me know. I have only one requirement for your future girlfriend; itâs being kind.â
âEmm,â Mo Liuxi responded.
The milk tea was ready. Mo Liuxi handed the cups to the two girls.
When taking the milk tea, Yan Su somehow felt his fingers stroking the back of her hand; it made her feel itchy and numb, as if an electric current was running through her hand.
She abruptly drew her hand back, and the milk tea fell toward the floor.
Mo Liuxi swiftly bent over and caught the teacup, saving it from falling and splashing all over the floor.
âWhatâs wrong?â Lusoang asked.
Yan Su blushed. She couldnât tell Luosang the truth. âThere was electricity on the cup. It hit me...â she stuttered.
âEmm.â Mo Liuxi nodded. âIt was static, very strong. My fingers are even numb. Thankfully, I reacted fast enough, so the milk tea wasnât wasted.â
âAutumn is dry and statics can happen a lot,â Luosang said knowingly.
Yan Su sighed with relief. Fortunately, Luosang didnât find out the truth.
Mo Liuxi was too reckless. They werenât even in the restaurant yet. What would he do when they got to the restaurant?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She wanted to run away. But, could she still do that?
