23 Chapter 23

"Xu Xu, only my girlfriend can control me, my apprentice can't." Right after saying this, Ji Bai stared at her calmly.

Xu Xu looked at him too, then she answered very clearly, "I don't want to control you."

Ji Bai looked at her kind, bright eyes, and felt a sulkiness rise up his chest. She had always been frank and outspoken, so in this case, she must really be totally uninterested in him.

The irritable thought gradually grew as Ji Bai held his cigarette and took another puff with an emotionless look.

Unexpectedly, Xu Xu continued to say, "Teacher, I just care about you."

Xu Xu appeared serious and sincere when she said this. Perhaps she was still not too used to taking the initiative to express her kindness, because her white-skinned face was flushed red as well.

Ji Bai went silent for a while, then suddenly smiled deeply.

He ashed his cigarette in the ashtray then cast a sidelong glance at her. "Alright, I'll listen to you."
