Ou Jue let out a cold snort, his dark eyes locking onto her. "What if it were you?"
"Nani?"
Ou Jue asked with utter seriousness, "If today our roles were reversed, and that tree had been planted by and my childhood friends, including Qiao Qianmo, would you be angry?"
Xia Xiyan thought about it. "No, I wouldn’t."
Xiyan had always been good at distinguishing between personal and collective matters.
But who would’ve expected Ou Jue’s handso face to darken with an unreadable expression? "Why wouldn’t you? Does that an you don’t care about ?"
... Ugh, where was this even coming from now?
Xiyan rubbed her forehead helplessly.
"Big Boss Ou..."
"What?" His face was expressionless.
"You’re the one I care about most." Xiyan tightened her arms around his waist, her tone softening.
The one I care about most.
Ou Jue’s back stiffened, his Adam’s apple bobbing slightly.
Suddenly, he grabbed her chin, his thin lips crashing down onto hers.
He ground her lips ruthlessly before his tongue invaded, completely claiming her mouth.
Recklessly stirring up the sweet nectar within her.
Mmm... mmph...
How did he go from being angry one second to kissing her the next?
-
Back in the country.
The news of Xia Xiyan and Ou Jue traveling together to S Country had been reported.
Qiao Qianmo stared at the reports, furious enough to fling her phone aside.
Right now, because of Madam Susan’s matter, her public image in the dia wasn’t great.
And it was all Xia Xiyan’s fault.
Sumr Xiyan had stolen what was rightfully hers. Wasn’t she afraid of karma?
Grabbing her bag, Qiao Qianmo put on her sunglasses and stord out in anger.
As she walked, she pulled out her phone and dialed soone. "Hello? Let’s et."

Although Xiyan and Ou Jue had a brief spat, they quickly made up.
After eating so sushi, they happily returned to the hotel.
Inside their hotel suite.
Xiyan slumped on the sofa, scrolling through travel guides to see where they could visit tomorrow.
Because—
The day after tomorrow was the dreaded Monday, ti to go back to school!!
Ou Jue was on his laptop, busy with who knows what.
Xiyan stared at him pitifully. "Ou Jue, can’t we stay here for two more days?"
"No," Ou Jue said, picking up a docunt to compare with sothing on his laptop, not even sparing her a glance.
Barefoot, Xiyan ran over and poked his shoulder. "Aw, co on, it’s so rare for us to co all the way to S Country. Isn’t it such a waste to leave after just one day?"
Her soft, pale feet finally caught Ou Jue’s attention.
He cast her a sidelong glance, furrowed his brows slightly, then lifted her up and placed her on his lap. Holding her like a child, he picked up the docunt again.
His gaze remained on the docunt, his voice steady as ever. "What’s so ’rare’ about it?"
From deciding to co to S Country to instructing Assistant Chen to book tickets, the entire process had taken less than a minute.
Besides, the entire reason for this trip was just because she wanted to eat sushi.
It wasn’t like it was a planned vacation or anything.
"Isn’t it a bit extre to fly all the way here just for sushi?"
"Then tomorrow, you can consider eating one more al before we leave."
"Aw, I don’t have any work commitnts right now. Can’t we play for two more days? Just two more days, okay?"
"No. I think you’re just trying to avoid going back to school."
"That’s not true," Xiyan protested fervently. "It’s because I love you too much! I don’t want to be apart from you for even a second. Actually, school is the biggest third wheel in our relationship!"
Ou Jue: "......"
What kind of twisted logic was this?
Only she could compare school to a third wheel in a relationship.
