Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

If Xie Xiao didn't really think much when they were downstairs, then after they came up, Luo Yanran had just finished speaking.

Her confession of liking him exploded in his heart.

He wanted to embrace her, to kiss her, to confirm she belonged to him.

Without a word, Xie Xiao pulled her out of the elevator and then walked to the front door and unlocked it.

The sound of the door closing, accompanied by the keys lightly hitting the shoe cabinet, could be heard before Luo Yanran could react, finding herself embraced in his arms.

The familiar scent told her this was Xie Xiao.

Luo Yanran felt his hold on her a bit too tight, so she gently pushed Xie Xiao, "What's wrong?"

Xie Xiao didn't respond at first, and after a moment he exhaled, "I just wanted to hug you. I really didn't want to do anything, but what you just said was too challenging for me."

Challenging his reason and impulse.

Luo Yanran froze for a second, then gently hugged him back, "But I meant every word I said."

She wasn't very good with words, so whatever she said managed to convey the reality and the original emotions she wanted to express to Xie Xiao.

Xie Xiao slightly released her, looked at her earnest face, and whispered, "Miss Luo, you're going to spoil me."

Luo Yanran appeared confused, tilting her head slightly, "Why?"

"Because I'll take a mile if you give me an inch, like right now, I want to kiss you," Xie Xiao said as he leaned in close.

The closeness of their faces made Luo Yanran feel as if their eyelashes might touch.

She could feel not just her face burning up, but her entire body. This was Xie Xiao's home, and his parents could return at any moment...

Reason told her to push him away, but, watching his face draw nearer gently, Luo Yanran still didn't move.

Until the soft, familiar sensation on her lips made her think, it's okay, I just want to spoil you.

Would this make Xie Xiao belong solely to her?

Luo Yanran felt like a bad girl, but this 'bad' seemed to be reserved just for Xie Xiao.

Her compliance made Xie Xiao's movements become rushed, losing the gentle probing that was there at the start.

Yet Luo Yanran didn't push him away, still indulging his actions.

That was until voices from outside the door reached them. Since Luo Yanran was pressed against the door panel, the sounds were quite clear.

She opened her eyes wide like a startled cat and placed a hand on Xie Xiao's restless hand.

Xie Xiao bit her lip lightly in dissatisfaction.

Then he too heard the familiar voice at the door.

"I got it, isn't this me coming back? Your son said he had an appointment with a classmate..."

Xie Qingxiao was back!

Xie Xiao cursed under his breath; Xie Qingxiao would know what's going on the moment he saw him in this state.

The voice was so close, nearly at the doorstep!

The fantasies in Xie Xiao's mind cleared up instantly.

Seeing Luo Yanran's flushed face and somewhat panicked eyes, he pulled her to the couch nearby, quickly straightened her clothes that he had disheveled, and then took out an iPad and two books from her bag.

True to Miss Luo's form, there were books in her bag indeed.

"Don't be nervous..." He held Luo Yanran's hand, and as the door opened, Xie Xiao quickly grabbed a cushion and placed it on his lap.

As Xie Qingxiao entered, he saw two people sitting on the sofa and paused for a second.

He said to Yang Lan on the phone, "Let's not talk anymore, I'm home. Xiao has a classmate over."

After a response from the other side, he hung up.

Luo Yanran stood up, her face still red, avoiding eye contact with Xie Qingxiao, "Hello, uncle."

Xie Xiao stayed seated, "Lao Xie, how come you're back so early today?"

Xie Qingxiao smiled and nodded at Luo Yanran, "Don't stand on ceremony, hello. Please, take a seat,"

Then he glanced at the books on the table and asked, "Are you studying?" Discover hidden content at m,v l'e-NovelBin.net

Finally, he looked at Xie Xiao, "Your mom asked me to bring some things over. Have you had dinner? I thought you weren't coming back to eat."

"We've eaten, just came back from Lin Yu's place, and about to leave after grabbing some things. Couldn't figure out a problem. This is my senior, Luo Yanran."

Xie Xiao let out a breath as he stood up and casually placed the pillow to one side.

Almost scared the hell out of me.

Xie Qingxiao cast a glance at him, his eyes carried a meaningful expression, and Xie Xiao always felt like he had seen through something.

But then again, considering how well old Xie from his family knew him, it wouldn't be surprising at all if he really noticed something.

Xie Xiao pulled Luo Yanran slightly, signaling her to sit down.

Luo Yanran was so nervous at that point; she was barely able to speak, having just kissed Xie Xiao at home before his father arrived...

That was the only thought left in her mind.

So when Xie Xiao asked her to sit, she sat down rigidly.

Xie Qingxiao could see the girl's awkwardness, so he said, "Then you two continue, ah, I'm in a hurry to deliver something to your mom. Make yourself at home, don't be shy."

The last sentence was directed at Luo Yanran.

He then went inside to grab the stuff and came out promptly.

After saying a few words to them, he left.

In less than ten minutes from start to finish.

But Luo Yanran was still so nervous that she forgot how to think.

In truth, Xie Xiao was also nervous; the situation was quite awkward after all.

It wasn't until the sound of the door closing echoed that his tense body finally relaxed.

He sat down next to Luo Yanran and said, "It's fine now, my dad has gone out."

Luo Yanran's body was somewhat stiff as she turned to look at him, taking a good while before she said, "I was scared to death when your dad entered just now..."

Her voice was even trembling.

This made Xie Xiao feel extremely distressed, and he quickly reached out to embrace her.

But she pushed him away, "Don't, what if your dad comes back!"

Fiercely, with a hint of grievance.

Yet to Xie Xiao, she seemed very endearing.

He didn't try to hug her again; instead, he got up at her insistence and asked, "Do you want to go see my room?"

When he said it, it was truly just an innocent invitation, but it earned him a glare.

Feeling somewhat helpless, Xie Xiao touched his nose.

Having been spooked by old Xie like that, he really wasn't in the mood for anything else.

Seeing her determined attitude, Xie Xiao could only pour her a glass of water before going into his room to get things.

Luo Yanran sat on the sofa and took a few sips of water before she gradually calmed down.

Now she had some time to look around Xie Xiao's home, which was very clean, seemingly a three-bedroom layout.

The living room was filled with the signs of life, a bit messy but not dirty.

Her gaze settled on a family portrait hanging on the wall.

Luo Yanran put down the cup in her hand and couldn't help but walk over to it.

Looking up, she saw that in the photo, the family of three all had brilliant smiles.

Xie Xiao seemed to resemble his mother more, both of them had gentle smiles.

Luo Yanran couldn't help but smile herself as her eyes lingered on the date in the corner of the photo.

It was a two-year-old photo, back when she had just met Xie Xiao.
