Chapter 532: Deliberately Provoking Him
The Xia Family’s driver was sick today, so there was no one to take her. Xiyan was just about to call a ride through Didi.The refusal was just on the tip of her tongue when Ye Xisi put on a serious face, "Do you still consider me a friend or not?"
As he spoke, he forcefully opened the passenger door and pushed Xiyan inside.
Xiyan was extremely helpless, "Didn’t you just get back from abroad? Aren’t you tired?"
"Seeing you makes the fatigue disappear." Ye Xisi playfully yet earnestly raised his charming eyes.
Xiyan glared at him indifferently, "If you keep talking nonsense, I’m getting out."
He truly forced an awkward attempt at flirting.
Having stayed abroad for so long, Ye Xisi had developed this kind of flamboyant and frivolous demeanor.
He snorted but obediently replied, "Okay, I won’t say it, such a petty streak."
After all, they were childhood playmates, and there was still plenty to talk about after not seeing each other for so long.
Soon, they got into a groove chatting all along the way.
Of course, eight out of ten things Xiyan talked about were related to Ou Jue.
Ye Xisi, bored, flicked his ear, "Do you realize you’re practically oozing with the stench of romance right now?"
"I enjoy it." Xiyan giggled, "And what about you? Haven’t you had a girlfriend over these years?"
"What do you think?" Ye Xisi raised his chin, "With a face this handsome, of course I’ve had girlfriends, and not just three or five."
"Player." So many girlfriends and you’re still proud?!
Ye Xisi rested his arm on the car window, his expression calm for the moment, "They were just for fun, to begin with."
"... Is that even a thing? I really feel sorry for your exes."
Ye Xisi chuckled softly, "Do you think they were sincere?"
Huh?
Xiyan was stumped by this rhetorical question.
In her own view, if you choose to be with someone, the most important thing is sincerity, isn’t it?
"I can’t accept this idea of just having fun," Xiyan shrugged, "Once you decide to be together, you should be prepared to be together for a lifetime."
Ye Xisi looked slightly moved, glanced at her, then clicked his tongue, "Tsk, naive girl."
"What’s that supposed to mean?"
"What’s the use if only you alone are prepared for a lifetime? What makes you think your boyfriend thinks the same?"
"I trust him."
"A guy who chooses not to come back home even for his girlfriend’s birthday—you’re telling me you trust him?"
Xiyan was momentarily stumped by his words and then leaned back heavily, crossing her arms and looking out the window with a huff.
Damn it, Ye Xisi, why do you always have to hit me where it hurts?
The light ahead turned red, Ye Xisi hit the brakes and turned his head, "Honestly, should I keep you company for your birthday? Just to tease your unshakable boyfriend a little?"
Xiyan hesitated for a moment then shook her head, "Better not."
"Sigh." Ye Xisi shook his head, "Fool!"
"... Shut up."
"Oh, by the way." Out of nowhere, Ye Xisi pulled out a bag of snacks, "These gummies are really delicious, I specially brought them back for you. Have a taste."
As he spoke, he skillfully unwrapped the candy, childishly pinching it and moving it toward Xiyan’s mouth, "Here comes the airplane, open wide—"
"..." Xiyan looked at him speechlessly.
This guy really thinks I’m a fool?
"Open wide, come on, ah—"
"You..."
Just as Xiyan opened her mouth to say a word, the gummy was tossed into her mouth, and the sweet taste filled her entire palate.
