Yuan Xiao nodded. She did not know Xu Ying well, but her sister, Xu Wan, was not easy to get along with.
âMy name is Xu Ying. Iâm in the same class as Fang Yao.â Xu Yingâs voice was very pleasant. When she spoke, her entire temperament was very gentle.
However, Yuan Xiao did not know if it was her imagination, but when Xu Ying mentioned Fang Yao, her gaze seemed to have become gentler.
âHello, my name is Yuan Xiao.â Yuan Xiaoâs attitude was polite and distant. Xu Ying clearly had a good impression of Fang Yao. Although Yuan Xiao did not hate her, she was not magnanimous enough to be friends with the girl who liked Fang Yao.
âBefore I met you, I thought Fang Yaoâs girlfriend would be the opposite of him.â
Xu Ying smiled and said in a teasing tone, âAfter all, Fang Yaoâs personality is a little strong. Everyone thinks that his girlfriend will be the gentle and kind type. I didnât expect you to look even more direct than Fang Yao.â
Yuan Xiao looked at Xu Ying who had a disdainful gaze, and felt that she was not an easy character to deal with because the meaning between the lines was that she and Fang Yao were not compatible.
âGentle and kind?â Yuan Xiao sneered and said to Xu Ying, âItâs too monotonous to use this word to describe girls. Everyone has a gentle and kind side, but it depends on who they are with.â
âIâve always been gentle to friendly people, but Iâm indeed scarier than Ah Yao when it comes to people who want to cause trouble for me.â
Yuan Xiao stared straight at Xu Ying. Her overly sharp gaze shocked Xu Ying. She did not expect this young girl in front of her to have such a powerful aura.
âXiao Xiao, did you hear something about me?â Xu Yingâs expression changed, and her tone became a little apologetic. âIâm indeed slightly closer to Fang Yao and everyone likes to joke that weâre a couple. Donât misunderstand.â
âReally? Why havenât I heard of it?â Yuan Xiao smiled and continued to admire Xu Yingâs performance. Yuan Xiao could not help but sigh in her heart. Xu Ying and Xu Wan were indeed sisters. Their acting skills were actually on par.
âThatâs because you just came to school. After all, Fang Yao and I are in the same class. We even spent a school year together at University A. Itâs normal for some bored classmates to spread rumors. As long as you donât mind.â Xu Ying smiled in embarrassment. Speaking of Fang Yao, she seemed to show that she knew more about him than Yuan Xiao.
Just as Yuan Xiao was thinking about how to end her boring conversation with Xu Ying, Fang Yaoâs cold voice suddenly came from behind.
âEven if Xiao Xiao doesnât mind, Iâll mind. Whoever is so bored as to spread rumors, Iâll tear off his tongue and tie a bow.â
Xu Yingâs face turned pale when she saw Fang Yao. She hurriedly explained,
âYes, itâs just nonsense from some bored people. I was just explaining to Xiao Xiao, afraid that she would misunderstand.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYouâre quite thoughtful.â Fang Yao glanced at Xu Ying. His expression was dark and unclear, and Xu Ying instantly became nervous.
âFang Yao, Xiao Xiao and I are both girls, so I know how she feels. Itâs inevitable for girls to be sensitive and overthink.â Xu Ying hurriedly expressed goodwill to Yuan Xiao, afraid that Fang Yao would think that she was bullying Yuan Xiao just now.
âYouâre so understanding. Please stay away from me in the future, lest some ignorant people spread nonsense and make my girlfriend unhappy. Iâll be angry too. â
Fang Yao did not give Xu Ying any face. Everyone noticed the awkward atmosphere between the three of them and looked at them curiously.
Xu Ying was furious, but she did not dare to show it. She could only smile awkwardly at the side and excuse herself.
Seeing Xu Ying leave in anger, Yuan Xiao was filled with admiration. She did not know when Fang Yao had become so good at dealing with girls like Xu Ying.
If it was Fang Yao in her previous life, Yuan Wei would have fooled him, let alone Xu Ying, who had better acting skills.
âWow, Ah Yao. I didnât expect you to have such a sharp tongue.â
Yuan Xiao patted Fang Yaoâs shoulder encouragingly. The other party raised his head proudly and whispered in Yuan Xiaoâs ear, âThatâs for others. If itâs for you, my mouth is sweet. If you donât believe me, try it.â
âWhere did you learn so many mushy words?â Yuan Xiao pushed Fang Yaoâs head away in disdain and felt goosebumps all over..S
