Chapter 118: First Day as an Official Couple
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xu Jiaojiao had no choice but to obey.
Waaah, it was only their first day as an official couple and her boyfriend was already controlling what she wore!
After that, Qi Shenbai personally sent Xu Jiaojiao to school.
Xu Jiaojiao, on the other hand, had a long face along the way, looking a little unhappy.
Qi Shenbai smiled and did not say anything. He just gently pinched her little fingers.
Xu Jiaojiao pouted and retracted her hand. She would not even let him play with her fingers.
“Are you angry?”
“You wouldn’t even let me wear a dress today. How else were you going to control me in the future?” Xu Jiaojiao turned her head away.
“We’ve only just started dating, and I—”
Xu Jiaojiao stopped talking.
Qi Shen placed his large, warm palm on the back of her head and gently turned her head around.
Then, he explained patiently, “It’s cold today. You just caught a cold not long ago. You have to keep warm.”
Xu Jiaojiao lowered her head. Although what Qi Shenbai said made sense, she still pouted.
Every girl wanted to go out in beautiful clothes.
Besides, today was her first day as Qi Shenbai’s bona fide girlfriend.
Seeing that Xu Jiaojiao was still unhappy, Qi Shenbai coaxed her softly, “Just humor me for a few days, okay? When the weather warms up later, I won’t care even if you run around in a onesie.”
“What are you talking about?” Xu Jiaojiao glared at him then laughed.
She could not stay angry with him at all.
“You look so pretty when you smile. Laugh for me more, would you?”
“If I laugh for no reason, people will think I’ve gone mad.” Xu Jiaojiao complained, but she still beamed at him.
The car stopped steadily by the roadside of the school. Qi Shenbai did not send her through the school gate. Instead, he sat in the back seat and silently watched her slender back until she disappeared from his sight.
“Mr. Qi, shall we head to the office?” Pei Yan, who had witnessed his boss’ entire lovey-dovey morning from the driver’s seat, finally came back to his senses.
Not too long ago, this man swore he did not like little girls.
Tsk, men could never be trusted…
Qi Shenbai nodded lightly. Just as the car was about to start, he suddenly said, “Contact the principal of Luo City University. Tell him we want to donate new air conditioners to the school.”
The school was simple with no frills. They saved wherever they could, so there was no air conditioning in the classrooms to this day.
Pei Yan was stunned for a moment before he reacted and hurriedly nodded. “Got it, boss.”
Xu Jiaojiao had just walked to the classroom door, carrying her painting materials on her back, when she saw the man waiting at the door. The smile on her face instantly faded.
Lu Zhuo was wearing a black windbreaker today. His handsome features were gloomy, and he looked very unhappy.
His appearance was quite eye-catching. Even though he looked down at the moment, the students passing by could not help but give him a second glance.
The first thing he noticed was the change in Xu Jiaojiao’s expression. The weather was so cold, but the smile on her face was bright and moving. However, the moment she saw him, her joyful look disappeared and her face tensed up.
He could not describe how he felt about that. Did she hate him that much now?
“Are you looking for me?” Xu Jiao jiao walked up to him and asked in a low voice.
“Let’s go out for a cup of coffee. 1 have something to tell you.” Lu Zhuo did not want to be stared at by all these passersby.
Xu Jiaojiao glanced at her phone. There were still more than 40 minutes before class started. The nearest cafe was at the back gate of the school, so there should be enough time to go back and forth.
“I’ll put my things down first.” She placed her painting materials on the seat before walking to the back gate with Lu Zhuo.
Because it was too early, the cafe had just opened and the waiters were still cleaning up. The two of them were the only customers.
Lu Zhuo chose a seat in the corner and ordered a latte. He then asked Xu Jiaojiao, “What would you like to drink? Iced Americano?”
“No need, I don’t like coffee,” Xu Jiaojiao replied.
Lu Zhuo was taken aback. “Really? But 1 remember…”
Xu Jiaojiao cut him off mid-sentence. “That’s because you liked it, so I played along with you. If you paid a bit more attention, you’d have noticed that 1 barely touched my coffee every time.”
‘You just never cared.’
Lu Zhuo’s face turned red then white. True, he had never paid attention to her preferences.
“Just give me a glass of lemonade, please.” Xu Jiaojiao politely ordered. After the waiter left, she looked at Lu Zhuo. “I don’t have much time. If you have anything to say, just get on with it.”
Lu Zhuo was not stupid. He could tell that she really wanted nothing to do with him anymore. His heart sank and he could not help but feel dejected.
“Huanhuan told me what happened in the historical town.”
Xu Jiaojiao looked at him indifferently and quietly waited for him to continue..
