Yin Shixiu looked at her blank face, not understanding why this innocent look often annoyed people.
"I’m thirty-two, but—"
"That’s the point! You scared !" Su Xiaong shook off Yin Shixiu’s hand, rubbed her arm, and rolled her eyes at him, "I’m only nineteen! You’re more than a dozen years older than . Who else should I call uncle?"
Yin Shixiu squinted his eyes slightly.
"Why... why are you looking at like that?"
Su Xiaong felt a chill on her back and instinctively stepped backward, only to find that when she retreated half a step, he advanced a step!
"Don’t... don’t co closer!" Su Xiaong reached out to push him, but Yin Shixiu glanced at her lightly, bypassed her shoulder, and picked up the bowl of noodles from the kitchen counter.
"This bowl is mine."
Su Xiaong blinked, watching Yin Shixiu brazenly walk off with the noodles, unable to say a word!
How could he act like this?!
Although she wanted to defiantly retreat to her room and slam the door, her stomach was growling insistently, making it hard to ignore.
A quarter of an hour later, she ca out with another bowl of noodles, glared at Yin Shixiu fiercely, and was ready to sneak into her room to eat.
"Sit here, let’s chat for a bit."
Yin Shixiu pointed to the chair opposite him.
Su Xiaong groaned internally, chat? What could they chat about! Could she not even eat in peace?
She sat down heavily, full of resentnt, and spoke curtly, "What do you want to talk about?"
"You dislike ?"
"A bit..." Su Xiaong mumbled.
"Because of that night?"
"More than that..." She took a big bite of the noodles wrapped in hot sauce and muttered two words.
"What else?"
Yin Shixiu picked up the remaining poached egg from his bowl and placed it in hers.
Su Xiaong paused for a mont, then snorted, "Giving poached eggs won’t win over, there are plenty of things to dislike about you..."
"I don’t like poached eggs."
"..." Su Xiaong’s hand shook twice, then she exploded, "That’s exactly the kind of thing that’s annoying! You give your unwanted food, am I a trash can?! Why do I have to eat what you don’t want?!"
"You fried it. I thought you might like it, and... not wasting food is a good habit, sothing young seedlings of our nation should understand, right?"
"..." Su Xiaong was so angry her face turned red. She threw down her chopsticks forcefully, "Stupid old man! I don’t want to talk to you! I just hate you!"
Not only did he take advantage of her, but he also constantly opposed her. Nothing ever went smoothly when she encountered him! He threatened and tempted her! Tempt? Not yet... but there would definitely be temptations in the future, she could guarantee! The thousand-year-old demon always bullied her, the nation’s young seedling!
"What can I do?" Yin Shixiu looked at her, and said calmly, "I quite like you."
Su Xiaong’s eyebrows furrowed, forming an eight-shape as she t his eagle-like gaze, stared for two seconds, then relaxed her brows and unclenched her arms, sat back down, picked up the chopsticks she had slamd on the table, and continued eating the noodles.
Yin Shixiu was sowhat confused. Being thirty-two wasn’t considered old, but he had plenty of experience, having seen many different types of people. Usually, he could predict people’s psychology from their actions and expressions with uncanny accuracy.
But Su Xiaong’s reaction... Yin Shixiu truly couldn’t comprehend.
"Just this reaction?"
Yin Shixiu remained silent for a mont, then casually asked a question, and took a sip of tea.
"What kind of reaction do you want?"
Su Xiaong looked at him with a face full of confusion, making Yin Shixiu unsure of how to respond.
