Chapter 60

Xiao Yao obviously didn't expect Xue Xue to ask this

He was stunned for dozens of seconds before he came to his senses

Yes, Xiao Yao doesn't want to hide it from her, but I rarely suck it, so I will give you one or two relief when I am under great pressure.

As he said that, his brow frowned

How do you know I can smoke?

Xiao Yao had never smoked a cigarette in front of Xue Xue, and he couldn't even find a lighter at home.

Faced with his doubts, Xue Xue smiled mysteriously

You guess

Well... After thinking hard for a while, Xiao Yao shook his head and had no clue. Tell me the answer directly

All right

Bite the last bite of the broken cake, Xue Xue suddenly jumped off the small earthen wall

Hey, be careful

No, this height is very safe for me. After a playful smile, Xue Xue continued to answer: It was Teacher Guo who told me

Teacher Guo? Is Guo Wenxiang?

Get a positive answer, Xiao Yao laughed

But how did he know that I could smoke? That time I was in Guo Wenhao's hometown, it was probably the first time I met him.

Xiao Yao recalled that there should be no mistake in his memory

Well, it was the first time you saw him, but he wasn't Ah

Simply telling him the story that Guo Wenxiang told him, Xiao Yao suddenly realized it

I remembered it only after you said this. Guo Wenhao did ask me how many times he was interested in being a model.

But you rejected him?

Well, I like research work very much. Maybe it's a bit psychological. I always feel like I'm following my parents' footsteps and doing something very sacred

Xiao Yao paused

Very at ease

Hearing this, Xue Xue looked at him

After a while, she also smiled

The eyebrows and eyes are curved, like the string moon hanging on the night sky

Gentle and dazzling, shining

I also like Brother Xiao Yao who does research. Although I am a little curious, what would happen if you and I entered the same industry?

Not going well

Yes, we will still be together anyway, and it has nothing to do with what job we will do in the future

Yes, that's the reason

After the words came, Xiao Yao took her hand and the two continued on the way home.

You said, you can only relieve smoking when you are under great stress?

After a while of quiet, Xue Xue suddenly spoke and continued the topic just now

Teacher Guo probably has too deep memory of that scene, and he still remembers the time clearly

Xiao Yao stopped

It was when I was in high school. Xue Xue raised her eyes and looked at him. It was also when you know I like Feng Yang, right?

Xiao Yao didn't say anything

Xue Xue was not in a hurry, but just counted his eyelashes with interest.

Xiao Yao has a pair of passionate peach blossom eyes, but his temperament is cold, which may be related to his habit of drooping his eyelids. It is difficult to see what he is thinking, and he will invisibly pull out the sense of distance.

Indeed, it has something to do with you. Xiao Yao finally spoke up. I have liked you since I used to.

But at that time, I couldn't tell the difference. What kind of like did I like? I just felt that I should take care of you, protect you, and accompany you, just like... when I first arrived at the Jiang family, you did what you did.

In fact, Xue Yayan did not take care of Xiao Yao except for accompanying him, let alone protect him.

She has always been the one protected by Xiao Yao

However, Xue Xue can understand Xiao Yao's feelings

For Xiao Yao, who had become fragmented overnight and suddenly lost his parents and became an orphan, Xue Yayan broke into his world in a reckless and willful way, which was more likely to move Xiao Yao than adults who were full of scruples and careful.

Sometimes, the time of encounter is right, more important than anything else

Thinking of this, Xue Xue clenched Xiao Yao's hand

This action is silently encouraged

Although Xiao Yao still maintained the same posture, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes and had no expression on his face, Xue Xue could detect from the details of his limbs that he was already more relaxed and calm than before.

You can also hear some clues from your tone

I originally thought that I would confess when you graduate from high school and become an adult

Unexpectedly... Xiao Yao's lip line stretched out a bitter curve. You have someone you like

Brother Xiao Yao…

But it's not entirely because of this

Finally, Xiao Yao met her gaze

At that time, I was facing a topic of choosing a research direction and couldn't make a decision, so I was discouraged for a while

Well... Then how did you get out later?

In the past, Xue Xue has always looked at Xiao Yao from Xue Yayan's perspective and guessed his inner thoughts.

Now she also wants to hear what Xiao Yao thought

After all, they are already so close
