Thinking that his heart had softened, Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up. Nodding vigorously like a little chick pecking at grains, she said, "Yes!"
"I'm thirsty," Yin Shaojie drawled.
Mu Xiaoxiao quickly picked up a bottle of mineral water and uncapped it before offering it to him. "Here's some water."
Yin Shaojie smiled and shrugged. "My back is aching from carrying you for such a long time earlier."
Getting up hastily, Mu Xiaoxiao massaged his shoulders from behind.
"Is this strength okay?" After resting for a while, she had recovered.
Yin Shaojie slightly nodded. "Borderline okay. Alright, sit back down."
Mu Xiaoxiao sat back down obediently. Her bright dark eyes looked at him, brimming with anticipation, her gaze focused on the fried chicken in his hand.
"You can have… one mouthful," he said.
Mu Xiaoxiao's face fell instantly. Unwilling to accept this, she asked, "Just a mouthful?"
Yin Shaojie glanced at her. "How much do you want to eat then? It's already good of me to let you have a mouthful; don't push it!"
"I want it I want it I want it!" Mu Xiaoxiao said quickly, afraid that she would be denied even that one bite.
Holding on to the fried chicken, Yin Shaojie offered her the meat. As if afraid of him running off, Mu Xiaoxiao held onto his hand tightly. Opening her mouth wide, she leaned forward and took a gigantic bite out of the chicken.
He was stunned. In disbelief, he asked, "How can your mouth open so wide?"
Mu Xiaoxiao was delighted. After sitting down properly, she then took the piece of chicken out from her mouth and held it in her hands to savor it.
Yin Shaojie made a disgusted face. "Ew, you're so gross!"
"You're the gross one! Who told you to not let me have it?" Mu Xiaoxiao reached out with her greasy fingers, trying to wipe them on him.
"Don't touch me! It's dirty!" Yin Shaojie dodged hastily.
Mu Xiaoxiao chuckled darkly. She moved towards him again, determined to touch him with her fingers.
"Oi!" Yin Shaojie shouted and tugged at her hand. The momentum caused him to pin her onto the ground.
With him on top of her, they looked scandalously intimate.
"Ah ah ah! Yin Shaojie! Let me up!" Mu Xiaoxiao's first thought was that bugs would get onto her. She shrieked loudly, goosebumps spreading across her skin.
"Hehe, scared now?"
The pair joked around with each other. At a corner nearby, Han Yun'er was secretly observing them. Her reddened eyes glared at the sight as though she wanted to tear Mu Xiaoxiao into small shreds, and her lips were white from biting them.
...
Yin Shaojie only let go of Mu Xiaoxiao when his phone started ringing.
After he finished the call, he said to Mu Xiaoxiao, "They're done playing and said that they wanted to go drink. Want to come? Or do you want me to send you home?"
Mu Xiaoxiao raised her arms up quickly as if she was afraid that he would change his mind. "I wanna go I wanna go!" she said hastily.
She was worried that he would cast her away and not let her enter a bar.
Yin Shaojie stood up and brushed the grass off his pants. "Let's go then."
Mu Xiaoxiao got up as well and scooped up the jacket. Looking at the road they came from, she said gloomily, "Are we walking back? It's so far."
Just as she said that, Yin Shaojie's Bugatti drove over. The driver was the one who had sent food over.
Mu Xiaoxiao handed his jacket back to him. "Thanks!" She smiled pleasantly.
The boy was a little shocked. Blushing, he said, "No problem. It's my duty anyway."
Yin Shaojie had already opened the door and gotten into the car. "Hurry up and get in!" he shouted to Mu Xiaoxiao.
