In the bar, the gorgeous and colorful lights lit up Feng Shengyangâs handsome face. The usually devilish playful look was gone, replaced by a solemn gaze.
After saying those words, he felt a mysterious warmth in his heart.
This was something he had never experienced.
I like youâ¦
He had said many sweet nothings before, but had never said those words seriously.
To him, the words âI like youâ sounded childish.
After saying them, Feng Shengyang did not realize that he was holding his breath.
On the other side of the phone, Mu Xiaoxiao only paused for two seconds, but it felt like an eternity to him.
âYouâre so lame,â Mu Xiaoxiao taunted. Her tone did not have much emotion in it, evidently taking his words as a joke.
âI like you.â
Feng Shengyang did not know what had overcome him, but he said it again.
âYouâre really lame,â Mu Xiaoxiao said.
âI like you.â
His voice deepened.
âYouâre extremely lame.â Mu Xiaoxiao said again. She had no other words for him and hung up immediately this time, not wanting to continue listening to a drunkardâs ramblings.
Feng Shengyangâs eyes gazed meaningfully into the distance.
The call had already been disconnected, but he still held the phone by his ear.
He spoke into the air, but seemed to be talking to someone, his voice deep.
âI think I like youâ¦â
â¦
At the Yin residence, in the living room.
Mu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and hung up, not bothered by what Feng Shengyang had just said to her.
Yin Shaojieâs eyes narrowed. Looking at her, he asked, âWho called?â
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him. She stalled for a while before saying frankly, âIt was Feng Shengyang. I ignored him.â
Did he not hear everything that sheâd said?
âWhat did he say?â Yin Shaojie sensed that things werenât as simple as she made it sound.
âThat guy was drunk, so I didnât care about what he said at all.â Mu Xiaoxiao said. She had no intention to continue the conversation.
However, Yin Shaojie interrogated, âWhat did he say?â
Mu Xiaoxiao paused and decided to come clean after thinking about it for a while. âHe was so lame. He said he liked me. What a joke!â
Yin Shaojie frowned and was silent for a while.
Did this girl not know that the words of a drunk man were his truest thoughts?
However, it was better that she did not believe him.
Mu Xiaoxiao observed his expression and asked carefully, âAre you jealous? He was just being silly. Itâs not his first time saying such things anyway. Heâs a player whoâs never serious. Only naive girls will fall into his trap.â
Yin Shaojie did not enlighten her. Instead, he held out his hand and said, âGive me your phone.â
Mu Xiaoxiao handed her phone to him obediently.
As she expected, he blacklisted the number.
Yin Shaojie looked up at her. âIs this his phone number? Did you not save it?â
Mu Xiaoxiao said truthfully, âYes, but this isnât his number. He might have borrowed someoneâs phone.â
However, it struck her as strange. She had not blacklisted Feng Shengyangâs number, so why was he using someone elseâs phone to call her?
