91: Thoughts in the Day and Dreams at Night

Thoughts in the Day and Dreams at Night

The man only touched her lightly and let go of her.

Xue Xi could feel that her lips were soft and cold…

Just as she was thinking about it, the man whispered in her ear, "Little kid, when will you grow up?"

Why should she grow up?

Xue Xi wanted to ask this question, but before she could say it, she suddenly opened her eyes.

The first thing she saw was the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, followed by the purple curtains. The sky was already bright and the light shone through the curtains into the room, making her certain that she was still in her bedroom.

After five seconds, Xue Xi retracted her lost gaze.

How strange. Why did she have such a dream again?

She took a deep breath and looked at the time. It was already past six.

She woke up early and first memorized the language textbook before going downstairs. Just as she was about to go to the provision store, Xue Sheng went downstairs.

Liu Yiqiu, who had been waiting on the sofa in the living room, stood up. "Big Brother, my brother called us early in the morning to ask if we want to invest. If it weren't for the fact that my family doesn't have so much cash flow, he would have definitely eaten this 100 million himself!"

Xue Sheng tidied his suit and looked at Liu Yiqiu. With a serious expression, he said, "The interest rate will be doubled in a short period of time. This has already surpassed the scope of normal business. Therefore, I advise you to be more cautious about this matter."

Liu Yiqiu's expression turned ugly.

After Xue Sheng left, she called Liu Jinmao. "Are you sure this business is reliable? Xue Sheng said that there is a risk so you should be careful."

Liu Jinmao sneered. "This is a project that the Bin City government has long wanted to open. It can only be obtained through connections. There is no problem at all. Moreover, my people personally saw Lu Chao visiting the Gao family and Elder Gao personally sent him out. Do you think that there will be a problem with someone who can make Elder Gao so respectful in his own city?"

Liu Yiqiu was instantly convinced. "Then does our family have enough money?"

Liu Jinmao snorted. "The Xue family doesn't know what's good for them. If they don't want to take advantage of this, I'll just take it all."

Liu Yiqiu instantly said, "Brother, I have some private money here, along with my dowry. Help me to invest."

…

Xue Xi ignored them and brought her breakfast to the provision store.

Xiang Huai was still in his black hoodie. Sitting in the darkness behind the counter, he was still reading. Xue Xi took a look at the title of the book. Today, he had moved on to another book. It was no longer "Great Sutra" but "Zhuangzi."

"…"

Although Xiang Huai often flirted, he gave off a very cold feeling. Xue Xi had never seen him speak much to Lu Chao before.

Why would such a man need to read these books to cultivate his body and mind?

The more she looked, the stranger he became.

With this thought in mind, Xue Xi passed the breakfast to Canine Teeth. When the three of them were eating, Xue Xi would look at Canine Teeth from time to time. His eyes were bright when he was eating, and one could tell that he was eating very sweetly.

They were both called Lu Chao, but that person from yesterday was too discomfiting.

As she was looking, a cup of soy milk was delivered to her. Xue Xi returned to her senses and saw Xiang Huai stuffing the soy milk into her hands. He asked, "Little kid, what are you looking at?"

"Mhm," Xue Xi replied. "I'm looking at Lu Chao."

"…"

Lu Chao was eating a bun. When he heard this, he paused in his actions. He could only feel a chilly murderous aura emanating from his boss.

He felt a chill at his neck and subconsciously gulped.

Xiang Huai suddenly said slowly, "Can't there be no one behind the counter during breakfast?"

Lu Chao stood up at once. "Yes, we can't have no one manning the counter. I'll keep an eye on it and quickly settle the bill if someone buys something."

After saying that, he picked up two buns and a serving of soya bean milk. When he reached the counter, he saw Xue Xi's gaze on him. He immediately cowered and hid behind the cash register.

Only Xue Xi and Xiang Huai were left at the dining table. Xue Xi had no choice but to look at… the bun. She ate it seriously. When the two little buns entered her stomach, she suddenly thought of something and raised her head to ask Xiang Huai, "What does your shower gel smell like?"

Xiang Huai paused in his eating and slowly lifted his eyes. He shifted his gaze on her ambiguously and smiled. "It smells like vanilla. Why?"

His burning gaze made Xue Xi shift her gaze away uneasily. "Nothing."

The last time, she scolded him for being a jerk and said that he controlled the dream. In the end, she was teased by him and even said something like "I have my thoughts in the day and I have dreams in the night."

The sun had its own thoughts…

Xue Xi suddenly turned to look at Xiang Huai's lips. His lips were thin, but his features were well-defined with a hint of determination.

She suddenly took out a napkin and passed it to Xiang Huai. "Wipe your mouth."

Lu Chao poked his head out from behind the counter and stole a glance. He saw that his boss was a little stunned. The devil who always commanded others was actually obediently taking the tissues.

Xiang Huai looked at the half-eaten bun in his hand and put it down. After wiping his lips, he asked, "What's wrong?"

The next moment, the girl suddenly stood up and approached him. The girl's soft lips landed on his lips.

Xiang Huai froze and did not move.

The touch of his lips made Xue Xi feel as though she was in a dream, but the touch was even clearer. It was soft like jelly and she could not help but lick it.

They were instantly separated.

Before Xiang Huai could react, the girl had already withdrawn and asked in confusion, "Not sweet?"

"…"

Xue Xi was being like a jerk who had teased a virtuous woman. After saying this, she picked up the soybean milk and drank it.

I have my own thoughts in the day… Since I have my own thoughts, I won't dream again if I do it in reality, right?

Since they'd kissed for a short while, they did not need to shake hands today. Xue Xi finished her soy milk and felt the joy in her heart. She stood up, picked up her bag, and left mercilessly.

Xiang Huai, who had been teased, was stunned. He raised his finger and touched his lips. The next moment, he chuckled.

The little kid actually despised him, huh? She actually wanted him to wipe his lips first before she kissed him?

How… adorable!

…

At ten in the morning, Xue Xi returned to the classroom after finishing her exercises. She then heard everyone say that the results for the Physics Olympiad were out.

As Xue Xi walked to her seat, she logged in to check her results.

Qin Shuang turned around and asked, "Sister Xi, how many marks did you get?"

Xue Xi had already found it and said, "300 marks."2

"F*ck! Full marks!" Qin Shuang gave her a thumbs up. "Sister Xi, people like us could score full marks because we can only get full marks. But you scored 300 because the full marks are only 300!"

Upon hearing Qin Shuang's praises, Xue Yao opened the webpage with a cold expression. As long as she won the first prize, she would be able to enter the Winter Camp. It did not matter how much she scored. What was there to be proud of?

As she thought this, she looked at her results…
