Chapter 1026 The Reserved Academic Genius vs. the Sweet Girl (18)
Xiao Yi looked down at her pretty little face and bright eyes, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
"hug?"
“Yes.” Shen Shuyi nodded emphatically.
Suppressing his excitement, Xiao Yi reached out and pulled her into his arms.
He couldn't help but press Shen Shuyi's head against his chest, letting her gently touch his chest.
Xiao Yi lowered his head, the air filled with the sweet fragrance of a girl.
He became increasingly uneasy, fearing that his body would have some kind of filthy reaction.
I was even more afraid of scaring her.
But the presence of the person in his arms was too strong, so soft. Xiao Yi's Adam's apple bobbed a few times. He clenched his fist and put it to his lips. "Cough, are you done yet?"
If I keep hugging him, he probably won't be able to control himself.
High school boys are too impetuous at this age, and now that he has a beautiful woman in his arms, no matter how strong his self-control is, it will be of no use.
Shen Shuyi sniffed and pressed her face against Xiao Yi's firm chest. "Not yet."
She leaned forward slightly, and Xiao Yi wrapped her completely in his arms.
"Shuyi, can I hug you again next time?"
Xiao Yi's voice, much gentler, came from above her head.
Shen Shuyi's heart pounded as she listened, and she reached out to hug his waist. "Why?"
Suddenly, she felt something poking her.
Shen Shuyi quickly let go of his hand and took a step back. When she looked up, she saw Xiao Yi's embarrassed face.
"I'm sorry, I...I..." Xiao Yi wished he could disappear into the ground at this moment, unable to explain himself at all.
Their eyes met unexpectedly in the ambiguous atmosphere.
Shen Shuyi blushed. "Xiao, Xiao Yi... why are you like this?!"
Because I like you.
Xiao Yi looked at Shen Shuyi with his deep eyes, but couldn't bring himself to say what was on his mind.
"Sorry, I don't know either."
Shen Shuyi scoffed, "You treat other girls like this too?!"
"Of course not!" Xiao Yi blurted out.
Shen Shuyi suppressed a smile, "Hmph, you just couldn't explain it clearly."
Xiao Yi hugged her tightly, "This is the first time I've ever done this."
"So you'll do the same with other people in the future, won't you?" Shen Shuyi stared into his eyes.
Xiao Yi sighed, "No."
"How can you be so sure?" Shen Shuyi asked, puzzled.
Xiao Yi looked at her intently with his deep eyes, his voice exceptionally gentle.
"Because of me."
"Why?"
"I can tell you, but no matter what I say, if you don't like it, don't distance yourself from me in the future. We can still be best friends for life, okay?"
Hearing his serious expression, Shen Shuyi became even more curious. "Tell me quickly!"
"We are the best of friends, and no one can separate us."
"I swear, is that okay?"
Xiao Yi's gaze grew even deeper. "Because I like you."
"I only have these impulses because I like you."
When Shen Shuyi heard him confess his love in a gentle voice, she felt her heart beating incredibly fast.
Seeing that she was stunned, Xiao Yi quickly said, "It's my business that I like you, so don't feel pressured about it."
"Shuyi, I'll still tutor you like before. Let's get into the same university together, okay?"
What else could Shen Shuyi say? He didn't even dare to ask himself if he liked him too.
She could only nod, "Okay, okay."
"Cake, we haven't eaten the cake yet! Let's eat it quickly!"
Xiao Yi hummed in agreement and cut the cake for her.
Shen Shuyi wasn't hungry; she only ate a small piece of cake and then stopped.
"Shuyi, you have cream on your lips."
"Where?" She instinctively wiped her face.
"Here." Xiao Yi reached out and wiped the cream from the corner of her lips with his thumb. "All done."
"Oh, then let's tidy up and rest."
"Put it down, I'll pick it up."
"Okay, goodbye Yi-ge!"
Watching her departing figure, Xiao Yi raised his hand and put the cream on his finger into his mouth to eat.
……
Ever since Xiao Yi confessed his feelings, Shen Shuyi felt that he treated her even better. It wasn't that he wasn't good to her before, but that he was much better to her now.
They no longer try to hide it so much.
Shen Shuyi sat in the back seat of Xiao Yi's car and reached out to hug his waist. "Brother Yi, I feel like you're pursuing me."
"You can remove the 'seems like' part."
"Huh? So direct? That's not like you."
"So, what kind of person am I in your memory?"
Shen Shuyi thought about it carefully, "He's just a very reliable older brother neighbor."
"Smart and handsome!"
"So, do you like it?" Xiao Yi asked softly, her words almost carried away by the wind.
Shen Shuyi deliberately hugged his waist tightly, "I won't tell you!"
For some reason, Xiao Yi didn't feel disappointed; instead, the smile on his face widened.
……
Time flew by, and the two maintained an ambiguous relationship until winter break.
During this time, Shen Shuyi thought Xiao Yi would confess his feelings again, but she didn't expect him to be so restrained and not make any move until the winter break.
Shen Shuyi is going to Beijing to spend the Chinese New Year with her parents during the winter vacation, and she will bring her maternal grandparents with her. She probably won't return to City A until after the New Year and the start of the new semester.
Then she and Xiao Yi won't be able to see each other for more than a month!
The day before she went to Beijing, Shen Shuyi spent almost the entire day at Xiao Yi's house.
The two watched a movie on the sofa. Shen Shuyi hugged a cushion and leaned on Xiao Yi's shoulder. "Brother Yi, I'm leaving tomorrow."
"I know."
"It's cold over there, wear more clothes." Xiao Yi leaned back on the sofa, turning slightly to make her more comfortable.
Shen Shuyi bumped into him and snorted twice, "Don't you have anything else to say?"
"Shuyi, I think about you every day here." Xiao Yi held her shoulders and pulled her into his arms.
Shen Shuyi leaned against his chest, "I won't miss you!"
"Okay, let me think of it." The boy's tone was somewhat indulgent.
Xiao Yi knew she wanted to spend the New Year with her parents and didn't want her to overthink it, so he changed the subject, saying, "Would you like some fruit?"
"I want to eat, but I don't want to move."
"I'll give it to you to eat."
“Okay~” Shen Shuyi’s eyes crinkled into a smile.
Xiao Yi picked up a strawberry and put it to her lips. Shen Shuyi's eyes were still on the movie, and she opened her mouth and took a bite.
Seeing that the girl wasn't going to eat anymore, he put the remaining half of his mouth into his own and ate it.
Shen Shuyi happened to notice this scene, and she looked at the boy next to her in surprise, "...?"
Xiao Yi solemnly took another strawberry and held it to her lips.
Shen Shuyi coldly opened her mouth, intending to bite it off, but instead bit Xiao Yi's finger.
Xiao Yi pushed the strawberries inside, and Shen Shuyi stared at him blankly.
If she wasn't mistaken, when the boy pushed the strawberry, he seemed to have touched her tongue.
Is it sweet?
This guy asked in a very serious tone.
Shen Shuyi glared at him, "Whether it's sweet or not, you'll know once you taste it yourself."
Xiao Yi's gaze fell on her rosy lips, and his eyes grew even deeper.
Feeling embarrassed by his gaze, Shen Shuyi picked up a cushion and threw it at him.
Xiao Yi grabbed the cushion and pulled the mischievous girl into his arms.
