Chapter 260 - Why Are You Crying
Rebirth from the Ashes
The weather was cold, especially on a rainy day.
It was a damp and cold weather, with chills to the bone brought by gusts of wind. Drizzles of rain were as cold as little icicles on the skin.
Shen Xi reflexively wanted to kick when she felt a sudden tug on her luggage. After taking a closer look at the person, she put down the suitcases. âLet go.â
Did he not just throw her out?
Why was he back?
Did he just grow a conscience?
âGive them to me.â Fu Qingxuan looked at her with an idle threat. âHand the suitcases to me.â
Shen Xi pulled back and regained her grip on the suitcases while keeping a straight face on. Without sparing him another glance, she continued her journey with her luggage in hand.
Fu Qingxuanâs complexion was beaming red as he picked up the pace to catch up to her. He pulled her arm and said, âCome home with me.â
Shen Xi walked on without looking back. âNot going with you. Thatâs your home, not mine.â
Fu Qingxuanâs tone became fierce, but it was just all bark no bite. âCome back with me!â
Shen Xi coldly smirked and finally listlessly looked at him. âPlease let go, Young Master Fu. I canât afford nor do I want to stay at your house.â
Fuming, Fu Qingxuanâs eyes turned red. With a flicker in his eyes, he aggrievedly shouted at her, âCome⦠Come with me!â
Shen Xi was surprised and gazed back at him amusedly. âWhy are you crying when youâre the one who drove me away?â
She never had the chance to be upset and cry!
Yet, there he was, acting all sad as though she bullied him!
âWhoâs crying!â Fu Qingxuan cried out loud to disguise his awkwardness. Panic drove him to come up with an excuse. âIâm not crying. Itâs the rain. Come back with me. Qingyeâs going to kill me if he finds out youâre gone.â
âWhat does your brother killing you have to do with me?â Shen Xi scoffed and warned him. âLet go or I wonât hold back on you.â
âI wonât.â His narrow eyes were glossy from the tears and rain drops lingering on his luscious lashes. Yet, Fu Qingxuan was not turning his gaze away. âIâm not going to let go unless you come back with me.â
Shen Xi was having a blast. Jesus. The young master was so cute and adorable. Yet, she kept a blank look on her face. âAre you in your right mind? Youâre the one who threw me out and youâre also the one who wants me back now. What makes you think I should listen to your every word?â
He was such a cub!
Fu Qingxuan appeared as though he was bullied before she could really give it to him. That look on his face motivated her to get a tease out of him.
Biting his lip, Fu Qingxuan made up his mind. âIâm sorry!â
Shen Xi was afraid that he may cry if she continued to refuse. She should forgive him and go with him since she had nowhere to go, and the young man had apologized. She enquired, âAre you going to throw me out again?â
Fu Qingxu replied, âYouâre not allowed to stay in my sisterâs room.â
She retorted, âFair enough.â
He carried the suitcases and walked ahead.
With an umbrella over her head, Shen Xi strode happily behind him.
Fu Qingxuan turned around and glared at her, âYou selfish brat! Iâm in the rain!â
She pretended not to hear and blabbed about something else. âYouâve got great scenery here.â
He puffed his cheeks sulkily. What a mean girl. She was a bad girl, as bad as the rest of the Li family!
Shen Xi curled her lips at the young man who was clearly not having it. She caught up to him to share the umbrella.
Sensing that she was drawing close, Fu Qingxuan soon saw a cover above his head. He faintly grinned before throwing her a look of disdain. âShort legs.â
Gritting her teeth, Shen Xi glared at him. This was a personal attack. No way was she going to share the umbrella with him!
