What should I do if my brother's goddess takes a fancy to me?

Xi Ning looked down at the plastic hands cuffed to her wrists.handcuffed, surprised and a little confused.

When did Kong Nianxi get this little toy from the boss?

No... that's not the point, the point is why you want to be with her all of a sudden?The other party didn't look very scared.

But soon, she consciously found the correct answer to this doubt—because it was fun.

The other party also made it very clear just now, because he thought it was interesting, so he wanted to find someone to try it with, which was quite in line with Kong Nianxi's playful nature.

However, Xi Ning didn't think this little prop was very interesting.

She moved her arm tentatively, and the other wrist that was locked with her came limply and followed her movement.

It was the first time for her to be closely imprisoned with others like this. It felt a little strange, and I couldn't explain why, but... unexpectedly, she didn't reject it.

In fact, for a slow-moving person like Xi Ning, a week's contact is not enough to be called a friend, at most it is a common acquaintance with a classmate, such a self-assertive behavior is already "crossing the line", if it is someone else , she would refuse without thinking.

But Kong Nianxi...

"Scared me to death, the ghost outside the door has already left?"

Huang Mao, who was hoarse from screaming just now, finally walked out from the corner with shaking legs, and looked at the door in fear from a distance.

"Ah."

Xi Ning came back to her senses, remembered Su Yuqi's voice she had just heard from outside, so she raised her leg and took a step towards the door, but ignored her hand.The length of the handcuffs, the unprepared Kong Nianxi in the towing room was unsteady, his body leaned towards her, and he was not in a hurry to dodge in the darkness. The two bumped into each other head-on. .

There was a loud "dong" sound, and the other two people in the room squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, shouting, "Ah, another ghost?!"

"..."

Xi Ning's flashlight fell to the ground and rolled twice. The larger candle in the room was blown by the wind from nowhere, and the flame flickered and almost went out.

With dark eyes, she raised her hand to support Kong Nianxi who was pressing on her body, moved the handcuffed wrist, felt each other's restraint, and pursed her lips: "Untie it, it's...not convenient."

After a while, Kong Nianxi's smiling voice came from the secret: "What's the inconvenience?"

The thin and slender shoulders were still leaning against her palm, as if she didn't intend to stand up straight, the temperature of her fingertips became hotter and hotter, Xi Ning paused: "It's very dark, it's easy to fall."

"It's okay, if you fall—" Kong Nianxi leaned closer as if he had no bones: "You will protect me, right?"

"..."

Xi Ning took a breath. ?

At this time, a little light lit up at the corner of the corridor, and there were footsteps coming towards this side.

"Ningning, are you in there?" Su Yuqi's voice.

Letting go, Kong Nianxi stood up straight, and Xi Ning responded.

"Come on, I found the exit."

Hearing the word "exit", Xi Ning felt relieved, bent down to pick up the flashlight, and took a tentative step forward. Kong Nianxi clung to her and walked out together.

Huang Mao squatted for a while with his head in his arms, but he only heard the two of them whispering "whispering" calmly, and he didn't see a ghost. , and quickly slapped Curly who was still squatting on the opposite side: "Go, idiot!"

……

After gathering everyone, the team walked towards the exit.

The sight is blocked by the thick darkness, and other senses become more sensitive.

Because her hands were handcuffed together, Xi Ning had to pay attention to the pace of the people next to her when she walked forward.

The warm fingertips brushed the skin of the palm inadvertently, as if being scratched by a cat.

Xi Ning clenched her palms tightly, and the hard plastic around her wrists became hot. She put down her half-rolled sleeves to cover them.

Fortunately, it's very dark in here.

Su Yuqi had already identified the location, and the group quickly walked out of the haunted house.

Walking weakly to the side of the road outside, without the gloomy background music playing in their ears, looking at the bustling food stalls in the distance, the few people who had just been scared out of their wits finally regained their vitality.

"This is not a place for people to go!"

"Yellow-haired bastard!"

"This place has been on my aunt's blacklist since then."

"..."

Just as he was cursing, the low-powered dim streetlight at the entrance of the haunted house suddenly went dark, and the cursing stopped abruptly.

Two seconds later, whoever screamed first, a group of people ran away.

Su Yuqi was also dragged by Tu Xiaoyuan to follow behind the crowd. In the end, only Xi Ning and Kong Nianxi were left standing in place.

As soon as the crowd dispersed, the street lamp above the head flickered twice again and turned on.

"Pfft~" Kong Nianxi smiled, "Tonight's performance can barely be counted as good for you."

She slowly raised her wrist, released the plastic handcuffs with a soft "click", and looked up to see Xi Ning looking straight at her.

Those usually reserved and restrained eyes widened slightly at this moment, staring at her without blinking, as if all the attention was focused on her, and she was the only one in his eyes.

Kong Nianxi's heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.

She noticed very early on that if Xi Ning put aside her habitual alienation and got serious, her beautiful eyes looked very affectionate no matter what she stared at.

Just never saw her before.

Turning his face away for a while, reaching out his hand to brush the long hair beside his ear, Kong Nianxi coughed lightly: "Why, don't you think it's too little? It's already the highest with me, okay?"

After thinking about it, she said softly again: "I am very satisfied with the previous performance, but the latter... you are barely qualified."

To be honest, in a place like a haunted house, it's hard to imagine that someone like Xi Ning, who has a calm personality, would actively lead the team. Moreover, she just finished talking about her ideal type when she was at the food stall, and Xi Ning behaved like this... Uncharacteristically, there is no way to stop her from thinking too much.

It's just that the essence is still shy and introverted, but damn it, she just likes the shyness of "wanting to welcome but rejecting" in the other party.

Xi Ning stared at Kong Nianxi's side face, hesitant to speak.

"Xixi! Come here quickly!"

In front of the stall selling baked gluten, a girl with big wavy curly hair stood in the crowd and waved.

Kong Nianxi responded, raised his legs and walked forward.

After going through the haunted house at around 09:30, when I returned to the dormitory, Xi Ning grabbed Tu Xiaoyuan who was about to enter.

"Oh, what are you doing?" Tu Xiaoyuan who suddenly grabbed her collar called out.

Xi Ning frowned and said evasively: "If...a girl said...that kind of thing to you, what does it mean?"

Tu Xiaoyuan gave her a puzzled look: "What are you talking about?"

"It's just..." Xi Ning opened her mouth, then swallowed it back: "Forget it."

Then he turned around and left.

"???"

Tu Xiaoyuan looked puzzled.

But... girls?Is it still weird? !

Her heart skipped a beat, and Tu Xiaoyuan's eyes widened.

No way... no way, is that what she thinks?

"Hey! Ningning, how many times have you read my manga—"

……

Days off always go by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was Sunday afternoon. During evening self-study, the class teacher Tian Jiabao walked into the classroom with a computer in his arms.

"Ah, isn't it, is it really a designated seat? The baby is really free."

"Is there any mistake, I actually sat with Yang Gou, Tian Jiabao, you have no heart!"

"..."

Xi Ning, who was working on a question, frowned at the noise. When she looked up, she found that the head teacher had announced a new classroom seating arrangement.

I saw my name in the front row at a glance. After scanning it, I looked away expressionlessly. I just wrote a number with my head down. The tip of the pen paused. Then I raised my head and stared at the three words next to her. I was stunned for a few seconds.

"Clean up and prepare to adjust the seat." Tian Jiabao said with a smile while holding the thermos cup.
