Chapter 76 Hurry up, your sister is waiting for us to eat (Seeking first subscription)

"no....

'

Lin Jianxia spoke somewhat blankly, "Before, it was my fault..."

'

"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Yubai asked, amused. "Did I go a bit too far with my jokes...?"

'

"It's my fault!" Lin Jianxia insisted.

"Okay, that's your problem."

Jiang Yubai nodded crisply.

"I.....

'

Lin Jianxia opened her mouth, seemingly a little dazed.

Jiang Yubai sighed and said helplessly, "No, isn't this all in the past? Why bring it up again all of a sudden?"

Lin Jianxia pursed her lips, but ultimately couldn't bring herself to say, "You clearly ignored me today." She simply muttered, "Jiang Yubai, we...didn't we make up?"

"We've made up," Jiang Yubai said, stroking his chin uncertainly. "Why? You're not planning to yell at me again, are you?"

Even clay figures have tempers, you know?

"No!" Lin Jianxia said anxiously, "I already said it was my fault!"

"I...I shouldn't have said that, it was me..."

'

She bit her lower lip and whispered, "I was being too sensitive. It was just a joke between friends, but I got so angry."

Hearing this, Jiang Yubai finally paused, "Are you serious?"

"I've always been serious, okay!" Lin Jianxia was almost in tears. "So...that's why I wanted to apologize to you."

Jiang Yubai was silent for a few seconds, then his expression became serious: "Okay, then I accept your apology. But to be honest, I also had some faults."

"I didn't consider your feelings, and those words... while not malicious in nature, did sound like flirting."

Lin Jianxia pouted and said sullenly, "That's my own problem, it's not your fault."

"Alright, we both have problems, okay?" Jiang Yubai shrugged, his tone softening slightly. "So...we'll consider ourselves to have forgiven each other?"

After a few seconds of silence, Lin Jianxia suddenly spoke:

"

"...Don't you hate me?"

ha?

"What makes you think I dislike you?" Jiang Yubai stammered, "Are you sure it's not you who dislikes me?"

"I always thought you had endured so much humiliation until you finally couldn't take it anymore, which is why you snapped at me."

"...Where?"

Jiang Yubai didn't hear clearly: "What?"

Lin Jianxia pursed her lips, feeling her ears burning.

She didn't speak again, hesitated for a moment, and slowly extended her hand to Jiang Yubai.

What's going on?

Jiang Yubai blinked, then suddenly realized, and reached out to hook her little finger with his, gently shaking it: "Come on, it's settled then, neither of us is allowed to get angry about this anymore... Pinky promise, never to change—"

—I clearly wanted to shake your hand!

Lin Jianxia pondered this thought, but looking at their little fingers hooked together, for some reason, a strange feeling quietly welled up in her heart.

She pursed her lips, but still softly repeated the line: "Pinky promise, never to change for a hundred years—"

'

After making this somewhat childish promise, Jiang Yubai finally let go, shrugged, and said, "Alright, are you relieved now? I'm really not angry."

Lin Jianxia nodded.

"Okay, I'll go call Lin Tingwan then," Jiang Yubai stood up, clapped his hands, and said, "Could you please bring the dishes out?"

Lin Jianxia gave a soft "oh," but her gaze still unconsciously fell on her little finger.

As expected... as long as you apologize sincerely, everything will be fine...

Everything will be alright after I apologize.

As this thought came to mind, Lin Jianxia felt as if she had finally unloaded some invisible burden, and a faint smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth.

the other side.

Jiang Yubai looked at his little finger and sighed inwardly.

To be honest, he really didn't expect that Lin Jianxia's dejected state all day would be due to this reason.

What do you mean by worrying he'll get angry...?

Although there was a little bit of that at the beginning, I... haven't taken it to heart for a long time.

But what really surprised him was that Lin Jianxia didn't actually dislike him?

He thought... this guy had been putting up with his heartless boss all along, after all, he was always saying this and that, and he never kept his mouth shut.

If she doesn't dislike him, why is she suddenly avoiding him and inexplicably getting angry?

What is the motivation?

Jiang Yubai didn't quite understand, and was too lazy to delve deeper. As long as he could appease his little girl... well, his little cook, that was enough.

After all, he has more important things to do now.

"Um—" Jiang Yubai knocked on the door, "Lin Tingwan? Have you changed your clothes?"

After all, he had been chatting with Lin Jianxia next door for a long time, so he should have finished changing by now.

But he really didn't dare to gamble...

What if I barge in and Lin Tingwan is changing clothes?

He had a thousand reasons to believe that even if Lin Tingwan was changing clothes, she wouldn't care whether he, "Jiang Yubai," was outside the door...

They'll continue changing them on their own as usual.

He knocked harder and raised his voice, saying, "I'm coming in. If you haven't changed your clothes yet... you'd better hide under the covers."

After waiting patiently for another ten seconds or so, Jiang Yubai pressed the doorknob and went inside.

Just in case, he even kept his head down and only looked at the floor when he entered the room. Only after confirming that there was no movement did he slowly raise his eyes.

The first thing that catches the eye is a pair of small feet dangling gently over the edge of the bed.

Her ankles were slender, her insteps had smooth lines, and her skin was an exceptionally soft and lustrous white, like the finest porcelain.

Her ten toes were slightly curled, and her nails were neatly trimmed and had a faint pink hue.

Jiang Yubai blinked, his gaze lingering for several seconds before continuing to look up.

The soft fabric of the sweatpants hugged a pair of long, straight legs, with the cuffs rolled up slightly to reveal a section of fair and slender ankles.

Moving upwards, past the flat stomach, over the undulating curves that were somewhat unsettling, it finally landed on the girl's face.

Lin Tingwan had obediently changed into casual clothes and was tilting her head slightly, looking at him with some curiosity.

They probably didn't know what he was trying to do with that look on his face.

Being stared at by such a clean gaze, Jiang Yubai felt inexplicably uneasy, as if he had done something wrong.

"Well, your sister has cooked dinner."

He looked away and coughed lightly. "Let's go eat."

But Lin Tingwan didn't stand up as usual. Instead, she tilted her head slightly and stared at him without blinking.

'

Jiang Yubai nodded resignedly: "Okay, okay..."

'

After all, I had promised her before.

He sat down next to Lin Tingwan, opened his arms and said, "Come on, hurry up, your sister is waiting for us to eat."

Before she finished speaking, Lin Tingwan had already thrown herself into his arms.

Girl, aren't you developing a little too fast...?

Jiang Yubai held Lin Tingwan's waist tightly, not daring to move, feeling somewhat helpless.

I don't even know why I get these daily hugs...

Who is rewarding whom?
