13 Going Home Together

"Cannot keep her private life separate?" Leng Siche was a little stunned but then he quickly restored to normal. He smiled, "You mean how she likes you?"

Leng Sichen didn't answer, essentially admitting it.

Leng Sichen softly sighed, "Bro, stop being so mean to her. Your face alone is terrifying enough! She looks like she's an extrovert who doesn't care about anything or ever shows her weakness, but it doesn't mean she doesn't get sad. She likes you. But that doesn't give you the right to hurt her!"

"Your heart aches?" Leng Sichen squinted.

"Yes!" Leng Siche admitted without hesitation.

"…"

Leng Siche's face didn't change but his hands had turned into tight fists.

"Brother, growing up, I never understood why she liked you so much. Even now, I still do not understand!" Leng Siche left the office after making this statement.

Leng Sichen leaned his entire body into the back of the sofa and closed his eyes.

Siche, I don't understand either. Everything I have is still the same yet people are different. Every time I turn around, however, she's still in the same place…

When she's there, I feel annoyed but when she isn't there, I strangely feel… alone…

After work. 

Xia Yuxun rode her bike home as per usual when she heard someone call her from behind.

"Lil Xun!"

Turning around, she saw Leng Sichen and Leng Siche walking shoulder to shoulder.

One appeared cold and annoyed while the other was waving his hand, smiling.

All the women in the area had their eyes glued on this pair of brothers. Leng Siche's intimate nickname of "Lil Xun" caused these women to all shift their gaze onto Xia Yuxun.

My god! No matter how much she can fight, she cannot handle herself against so many of these wolf-like women!

However, these two truly are pleasing to the eye! They all looked as delicately beautiful as sculptures from the Louvre. At the very least, they had the blood of four different nationalities. To trace it down anymore would need them to date back far too long in time.

 Does this mean she was willing to die for these beauties, even if she gets killed by others….

"Lil Xun, let me take you home," Leng Siche said excitedly.

"Uhm… there's no need. I biked here!" Xia Yuxun declined gently.

"I can give you a ride!" Leng Siche said and walked over to grab her bike.

"Brother, I am going to leave with Lil' Xun."

"You do whatever you want!" Leng Sichen walked to the car garage.

So then, Xia Yuxun had no reason to decline and began to walk behind Leng Siche, who was now pushing the bike.

Ugh, why does it feel like there are so many transparent skulls attacking her right now? The jealous gazes from the women were about to solidify into real-life objects and stab her to death…

"Lil' Xun, come up."

"This isn't right! How can I ask you to give me a ride…" Xia Yuxun was troubled.

"Are you heavy?" Leng Siche raised an eyebrow.

"Of course not! I am not heavy at all, okay!" In the end, Xia Yuxun slowly seated herself on the seat at the back of the bike.

The wind blew gently as they rode. Her depressed mood caused by Leng Sichen improved quickly.

"Siche! Now that you're back, I feel like you have changed a lot!"

"Really? What has changed?"

"You got more handsome! And a lot more outgoing!" Xia Yuxun watched his broad back and in astonishment, realized that the once fragile and sick little boy had grown into a mature man.

"Thank you." Leng Siche smiled happily, like a child who had just gotten praised.

At home, Xia Yuxun dug through her closet for a long while before sadly realizing that other than exercise clothes, she only had exercise clothes.

In the end, she gave up on herself and decided not to change at all. Wearing what she was currently wearing, she went to meet up with everyone else.

It was her first time at the bar and she impetuously walked the wrong way many times. In the end, she was stopped by a drunkard who refused to let her go.

Just as she was about to attack, she suddenly felt her body being engulfed by a wave of familiar coldness.

"Why are you running around?" The man who had now pulled her into his chest scolded with a gloomy face.
