Are You Really Angry?

Xu Youyou did not think there was anything wrong with the question and replied honestly, "I take the bus to the nearest subway station."

"There are few cars in the garage. You can pick one to use." Mo Shenbai spoke about his cars so casually as though he was talking about toys one could simply play with.

Xu Youyou looked at him in surprise before she said, slightly embarrassed, "Thank you for the offer, but I can't drive."

In fact, even if she knew how to drive, she did not think she would use his car. Since she was young, her grandmother had taught her to be independent and to not take advantage of others.

Mo Shenbai fell silent for a moment before he said, "Get in the car."

It was fine that he was unaware previously, but now that he was aware of it, how could he let her walk so far to the bus stop? If that Xu Jialu found out about it, he would never hear the end of it.

"Ah?" Xu Youyou was slightly surprised. She quickly said, "No need. It's quite convenient for me to take the bus…"

Before she could finish her words, he had already gotten into the car.

With that, Xu Youyou's voice died down. She looked at the driver waiting for her and felt embarrassed to waste their time. Hence, she quickly got into the car.

When they were in the car, Mo Shenbai was completely focused on reading on his iPad. He was silent throughout the journey and did not even look at Xu Youyou.

Half an hour later, the car pulled up to the entrance of M University.

Xu Youyou thanked Mo Shenbai and was about to get off the car when he asked, "What time does your class end?"

Xu Youyou did not think too much and replied, "4 in the afternoon."

Mo Shenbai only nodded slightly. "Mm."

Xu Youyou looked at him puzzled before she got out of the car. Then, before closing the door, she bent down and said, "Goodbye, Mr. Mo."

Mo Shen Bai lowered his head and looked at the iPad. He did not react as though he did not hear her.

Xu Youyou did not take it to heart. She did not feel disappointed nor did she find him arrogant or rude. After all, he was a bigshot. It was not surprising if he did not want to interact much with a university student like her.

…

The sun was not too bright when it was 4 in the afternoon.

The students became restless as soon as the bell rang.

The teacher did not keep the student so the class ended on time.

Xu Youyou's painting had not been completed so she sat alone in the classroom to complete it after everyone had left. When she was done, she unhurriedly packed her bag and slowly walked out of the classroom.

When she reached the gates, her phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Su Lanxu asking if her class had ended. Su Lanxu was at a nearby milk tea shop and invited her to have hotpot for dinner.

Perhaps, Su Lanxu felt bad for what happened last night, she was extra nice today.

Xu Youyou replied with an 'Ok' before she quickened her pace.

"Youyou."

A familiar voice rang from nearby at this moment.

Xu Youyou turned around and saw Lin Yin getting off a white Mercedes-Benz and walking toward her.

Lin Yin was dressed casually today. He wore a white polo shirt and a pair of grey pants. With the sun illuminating his exquisite facial features, he attracted many people's attention.

Lin Yin pursed his lips before he asked gently as though nothing had happened, "Did you stay back in the classroom to paint again?" 

Xu Youyou replied, "Yes." Then, without waiting for Lin Yin to speak, she asked, "What's the matter?"

Lin Yin was slightly surprised by Xu Youyou's cold reception. Finally, he asked with a smile, "Are you really angry?"

Then, he raised his hand, intending to stroke the top of her head.

However, before his hand could make contact, she took half a step back and avoided his hand.

Lin Yin's expression stiffened as his hand froze in mid-air.
