Chapter 1066 - Side Story: Jiayu & Momo (21)

“Hoho... It was just a misunderstanding, a big misunderstanding! Look, it’s so late! Go home and sleep tight...” Su Xiaomo chuckled awkwardly, but He Jiayu didn’t seem to hear her at all, and only kept moving closer.

Su Xiaomo tripped, lost her balance, and fell backward.

A pair of big hands stopped her from falling and pulled her right into a pair of arms.

Su Xiaomo’s face was pressed to a warm chest. Listening to He Jiayu’s pounding heart, she couldn’t help but blush.

“Hey... what are you doing...”

He Jiayu said in a serious tone, “Su Xiaomo! Look at me!”

Look at him?

Su Xiaomo looked up and blinked at He Jiayu. He wasn’t smiling like usual, but looked rather grim.

“You can’t take your safety so lightly! Why do you pretend to be this tough girl when you can’t take care of yourself at all?” He Jiayu scolded her, which upset Su Xiaomo. “I told you it was just a misunderstanding! And they caught that burglar from last time, didn’t they?”

“What if they didn’t? What if I wasn’t around today or you couldn’t call 110 in time? Or what if that burglar had an accomplice?” He Jiayu frowned and tried to drag Su Xiaomo away. “Come home with me!”

Su Xiaomo struggled with all her might. “I’m not going! What would that make me? Your little fans will tear me apart if they find out that I’ve been staying with you!”

He Jiayu was filled with anger at those words. This woman! How could she think that she was nothing to him?!

He ground his teeth and asked, “Su Xiaomo, do you have no heart?”

“Of course I have one!”

“Can’t you see that I care about you?” He Jiayu tried to keep his temper at bay. “Did you think that I was just messing around with you?”

Su Xiaomo wouldn’t meet his eyes. “But you’re nice to everyone... You’re like this giant handwarmer that everyone can use...”

“I’m not a f**king central heating machine!” He Jiayu cursed. “How did I fall in love with a woman like you?”

Pressing his hand to his chest, he was clearly extremely vexed.

Su Xiaomo stood there dazed. She then wrung her hands together and asked, “You like me?”

“You think I don’t?” He Jiayu asked in disbelief.

“How am I supposed to know?! I can’t read your mind!”

“Su Xiaomo, female, 17 years old, 163cm, lives in Room 207, Block 3, XX Street, Xiushui District, Yu City. She likes sweet food, soup, Siberian Huskies, and Scottish Folds. She talks in her sleep and compulsively squeezes her toothpaste out from the very bottom. When she’s in a bad mood, she finds a supermarket and sticks her hands into the rice and mung bean buckets...” He Jiayu went on nonstop for over ten minutes, then asked, “Do you still think I don’t like you?”

“What you said only proves that you know me very well at most...” Su Xiaomo said stubbornly. “I’m telling you, I...”

Before she could go on, He Jiayu stopped her with a kiss.

He tasted like mint. Prying her teeth open, he had his way with her, pulling and twisting her tongue with his...

Su Xiaomo’s head spun. She tried to push him away, but he caught her wrists and pinned them behind her back.

“We’re... outside a police station...” she said when she was finally able to speak.

“I know.” He Jiayu gave her a brooding look. “The civil administration bureau is just around the corner.”

Su Xiaomo: ...

“Su Xiaomo, you can decide whether I should harass you legally or not,” He Jiayu said calmly. “Whatever the verdict, I’m still doing it!”
