The villain heroine turned evil again after being saved by him

Chapter 146 You are cowardly and greedy

Xi Ruan felt Jiang Lingsi's stiff body in front of him, and for an instant he felt that the air around him had solidified.

It’s over.

Why did she say it so impulsively?

Jiang Xiaoshu already had a heavy psychological burden and had rejected her several times. She had to pretend with great difficulty that she didn't like him so that she could continue to stay by his side and be close to him as if nothing had happened.

But now she actually said it again...

Xi Ruan buried herself in his arms, not daring to look up, let alone look at his expression.

Jiang Lingsi lowered his head to look at the top of Xi Ruan's head, his hands frozen in mid-air. It was not right to hug her, nor was it right not to hug her. Emotions were surging in his dark phoenix eyes.

He thought again of what Hoda had said to him in casual conversation.

"Let's not talk about us. Just ask anyone from our school. Who wouldn't think that you two are a secret couple when they see you two acting like this?"

"I've already told you that Xi Ruan likes you. Anyone can see it, but you insist that she treats you as a friend."

"I'm her friend too, so why don't I see her feeding me, jumping into my arms, or hanging around my neck as usual?"

"Don't tell me you two have been doing this since you were little and you're used to it. If you're really not that special, why haven't I seen anyone else who makes her have this habit, or anyone who can make her give up being close to you?"

"Jiang Lingsi, you can actually feel it all, and you can understand it all, but you just don't dare to expose yourself. You are just a coward and greedy."

[You are both cowardly and greedy. ]

Jiang Lingsi's long eyelashes trembled.

The hand that was raised in the air finally fell down and gently hugged the person in his arms.

That's right, he is both cowardly and greedy.

He was afraid of having nothing, worried that he would become a burden to her, and terrified that he would be abandoned by her.

Yet, he was also greedy for everything she gave him now, enjoying her attachment and closeness without satisfaction, and greedily enjoying the love that she could not suppress at all on a normal day.

He was the one who fooled the little girl into confusing the emotional boundaries, and he knew that the behavior between them had already surpassed the intimacy that friends should have, but he couldn't bear the temptation to cross the line again and again.

Jiang Lingsi hugged her shoulders tightly.

He's just a jerk.

The bastard who took advantage of everything but didn't dare to take responsibility...

Xi Ruan felt the hand on his shoulder getting tighter and tighter, and he grabbed his clothes nervously.

This time... Jiang Xiaoshu didn't push her away.

She raised her head quietly and glanced at Jiang Lingsi's expression with her bright eyes.

From her angle, she could only see his clear and smooth jawline. The boy lowered his eyebrows, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, making it difficult for her to discern his emotions.

but……

Feeling the warmth on his shoulder, Xi Ruan suddenly regained some confidence.

"Jiang Xiaoshu." She called softly.

"Ah."

He responded.

Xi Ruan's eyebrows curved unconsciously. She rolled the fabric of the clothes in her hands with her fingers, hesitated for a moment and said, "Jiang Xiaoshu, I think I like you a little bit."

"Not the kind of friends, the kind of liking for boys."

"But, it's also possible that I got it mixed up again, so, until I can figure it out, can we just do it like before?"

She spoke these words carefully, as if she was very fond of a rose and reached out to touch it, but was afraid of hurting it and being pricked by its sharp thorns.

So she pretended that she didn't like him that much, just a little bit, a little bit that was not sure.

This was all she could do, to retreat back to the range he could accept, to watch him and stay with him, to take back the feelings that she had poured out.

Xi Ruan waited quietly for Jiang Lingsi's reply. After a while, she heard him say "OK", and then he rubbed the hair on the back of her head.

Xi Ruan laughed.

She clenched her hands, raised her head from his arms, and asked jokingly, "Jiang Xiaoshu, do you like me a little bit but you're not sure?"

Her clear eyes stared at him.

She thought it would be okay even if he denied it again.

It didn't matter even if what he said made her feel sad.

At least, it was a big improvement that he didn't push her away today after she told him that she liked him.

Jiang Ling looked down at her.

She was actually very understandable in front of him.

These eyes say it all.

Passionate yet secretly timid, impulsive yet suppressed expectation.

He reached out and tucked the messy hair beside her face behind her ears, and a smile appeared on his rosy lips.

"Hmm, not sure."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw those beautiful eyes immediately filled with stars. The little girl smiled like a flower and buried herself happily in his arms again.

"Then let's work hard together and try to sort it out as soon as possible!"

"Ah."

He hugged her tightly again, closed his eyes and gently rested his chin on the top of her head.

See, not only is he a jerk, he's also a liar.

He had already figured it out.

From the first moment he saw her as a child, he knew that he liked this beautiful girl.

——When she grows up, he will make her his bride.

-

The days that followed were relatively peaceful.

Xi Ruan's life is busy and fulfilling. He balances school and work and often travels around the country.

Although it was really tiring, Xi Ruan calculated the increasing amount of money that would come into her account in the future and felt that it was worth the harder work.

Another monthly exam is over and students are looking at their grade rankings in the corridor.

When they saw that Xi Ruan took the first place in the liberal arts category on the big red list in front of them, and also took the first place in other elective subjects, the crowd became excited again.

Even if she is not in school, she will always be included in everyone's gossip.

"Xi Ruan is really amazing. She never comes to class but still scores so well."

"So geniuses don't need to study! Compared to her, I'm such a loser!!!"

"Stop howling like a ghost! I'm working hard, too! Didn't you see that in "All Oddities", people use every bit of their spare time to memorize words?"

"That's right! Hey! Speaking of which, did you all watch the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala? "

"Ahhhh!! I've seen it! Xi Ruan's Jade Rabbit look is so amazing! As soon as she opened her mouth, I knelt down on the spot! It's so damn good!!!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

……

All she could hear were voices discussing Xi Ruan. Liu Yue was extremely upset after seeing her grades, but unfortunately she couldn't keep a sullen face in school.

She walked back to the art class and sat down in her seat. Soon, several female classmates surrounded her.

"Liu Yue, Liu Yue, how did you do in the exam?" a round-faced girl asked while leaning on Liu Yue's desk.

Liu Yue spread her hands in pretended helplessness and shook her head, "What else can I do? It's still as bad as ever."

Seeing this, several girls covered their mouths and laughed, and also said that they did not do well in the exam.

After chatting about grades, the girls winked at each other and suddenly changed the topic.

"Liu Yue, actually we want to ask..." A girl paused, seemed a little embarrassed, and poked the arm of the girl next to her.

The girl glanced at her with disdain and said directly: "Actually, this is what we want to ask you about how much contact you have with Xi Ruan? Can you help us get a few To signatures?"

"Yes, I remember you said last time that you also went to participate in the program selection for the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, so you should have met Xi Ruan. It seems that you always run into each other, so if you have the chance, can you help us get an autograph?"

"I really like her! The song "Lovesickness Moon" she sang at the party was so beautiful! Even my mom cried when she sang it!"

Several pairs of expectant eyes looked over at the same time. Liu Yue clenched her hands tightly under the table, her nails poking her palms so hard that it hurt.

It's Xi Ruan again!

Why is everyone only paying attention to her?

She is obviously a star, so why don’t they ask for her autograph?

Liu Yue took a deep breath, her face still cheerful and kind, and promised readily: "Okay~ I will definitely ask for her for you next time I see her."

Several girls immediately high-fived each other happily and thanked Liu Yue repeatedly.

Liu Yue originally thought that these annoying people would leave, but unexpectedly they sat down next to her and asked curiously, "Liu Yue, can you tell us about Xi Ruan?"

"Yeah, like what did she perform last time you saw her?"

"And what kind of private clothes does she usually wear?"

Several girls asked in a chattering voice.

Liu Yue was so angry that she almost went crazy, especially when she thought about the scene when she last participated in the program selection. She was so jealous that she almost bit her lip.

Who would have thought that as soon as Xi Ruan opened her mouth, the director-general would immediately decide on her.

And Xi Ruan was still pretending to be a nice guy on the stage and said whether it would be better to give other people a chance to perform.

The director thought about it and said that anyone who thought they were better than Xi Ruan could go on stage, but except for a dancer, none of them dared to go on stage as they would offend the director.

So the opportunity to perform at the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala fell into Xi Ruan's pocket so easily, and she became a hot topic again and attracted a lot of attention.

In just a moment, she looked at the pairs of eyes in front of her and thought of something. After smiling slightly, she waved gently to signal them to gather around.

"I'm telling you guys a secret. Xi Ruan is amazing. Last time at Huang Tao Terrace..."
