Chapter 26: What if I say it hurts?
“Xiaoxiao!” Lu Ziyi ran to Ye Chuxiao’s side, “Let’s have lunch together.”
“Huh?” Ye Chuxiao looked up, “Senior Student Ziyi, are you done with your work?”
“I’m done,” Lu Ziyi said gently, “What do you want to eat, Xiaoxiao?”
Ye Chuxiao didn’t have much of an appetite, so she casually said, “Let’s just have a simple set meal.”
“Then shall we go to Wu Yu’er Western Restaurant for a simple meal?”
Ye Chuxiao’s eyes widened, “Senior Student Ziyi, that ‘simple meal’ isn’t simple at all! We… let’s change places. A tea restaurant, a braised meat shop, or something like that.”
“It’s fine,” Lu Ziyi smiled and said, “The boss is treating you, so you might as well take advantage of it!”
Ye Chuxiao laughed, “Brother Congrui would love to hear that!”
Lu Ziyi pinched Ye Chuxiao’s delicate nose, smiling faintly, and said with a tone of reproach, “You take advantage of me, but you’re thinking of someone else!”
“Ouch!” Ye Chuxiao scrunched up her little nose, “It hurts!”
“Ah?” Lu Ziyi quickly let go. He hadn’t used any force at all. “Does it really hurt?”
“It hurts a lot!” Ye Chuxiao became even more aggrieved.
“Then… how can I make it stop hurting?”
Good heavens, Lu Ziyi had never pinched a girl’s nose before. Were girls fragile things?
Seeing Lu Ziyi’s flustered expression, Ye Chuxiao secretly laughed. She had successfully teased a cool and aloof School Hunk!
Ye Chuxiao said innocently, “If you pinch it back for me, it won’t hurt anymore!”
Lu Ziyi looked bewildered, then he laughed, “There’s such a thing?”
“Yes!” Ye Chuxiao nodded seriously.
Suddenly, a handsome face loomed large in front of Ye Chuxiao. Meeting his clear eyes, Ye Chuxiao’s expression froze, and her heart skipped a beat.
“Xiaoxiao, pinch me hard, and it won’t hurt anymore!”
Senior Student Ziyi, I was just… joking.
To think that such a handsome face was so close to her, she could even see her dazed reflection in his bright pupils.
The overwhelming visual impact made Ye Chuxiao’s back stiffen rigidly!
This was a game she often played with Brother Chusheng. If it were Brother Chusheng, he would definitely say, “I’ll rub it for you, Xiaoxiao. Don’t pinch me, or your nose will be ruined and you won’t be handsome anymore!”
But Senior Student Ziyi was actually telling her to pinch him back hard!
Senior Student Ziyi, you’re so serious, it’s easy to have an awkward conversation. Are you telling me to really pinch, or really pinch!
Ye Chuxiao’s fair and slender fingers pinched Lu Ziyi’s delicate nose, not with much force, but with a very forceful expression on her face.
Ye Chuxiao had gotten her revenge, and she giggled, “Senior Student Ziyi, does it hurt?”
It was Lu Ziyi’s turn to look aggrieved, “If I say it hurts, can you pinch me back again?”
Ye Chuxiao quickly covered her face with both hands, shaking her head pitifully, “No, no more!”
Lu Ziyi frowned, “But I feel like I only used one-tenth of the force, and Xiaoxiao used two-tenths.”
“You can even calculate that?”
“Yes!” Lu Ziyi nodded with certainty.
Ye Chuxiao still covered her face, her large eyes becoming bright and sly, “Senior Student Ziyi, I guess there’s only a second way to relieve the pain!”
“Oh? What way?”
“Endure it!”
Ye Chuxiao chuckled.
Lu Ziyi looked helpless, but he also smiled.
Ye Chuxiao and Lu Ziyi went to the Western Restaurant, and when they sat down to order and eat, Ye Chuxiao was still smiling.
“What’s wrong, Xiaoxiao?” Lu Ziyi looked at the girl with smiling eyes opposite him. If pinching my nose makes you this happy, I’ll let you pinch it every day.
“Nothing,” Ye Chuxiao said with a smile, looking at Lu Ziyi’s gentle eyes, “I just think Senior Student Ziyi… is very cute!”
