BXBX NOVEL Chapter 157
After school that day, he waited for her at the door with his bag on his back.
She always moved a little slower than him. and the busy girl was reflected in the pupils of the youth standing at the back door.
He quietly watched her face the blackboard and jot down notes, and because she lowered her head, a few pieces of bangs fell onto her forehead. She also double-checked that she had all her homework for the night according to her planner and then packed up her stuff. She also smiled and greeted those around her before finally glancing in this direction and immediately rushed over after putting her bag onto her back.
She resembled a newborn puppy from this angle as she rushed towards him laboriously and clumsily. The heavy school bag also slanted her shoulders, making it appear incredibly strenuous.
The setting sun refracted from the glass windows of the classroom, passing by the mottled shadows of the trees on the table, and as the rustling wind brushed past, the golden light seemed to dance.
The girl’s ponytail was softened by the sun and because the movement fell in front of her, the whole person seemed to glow.
At that moment, she was the only one in his eyes.
For some unknown reason, this scene gave Xie Xinglin a strange sense of satisfaction. The way she looked at him right now gave him the illusion of being relied on by her.
He even felt his blood flow speed up.
He unconsciously twirled his fingers and lightly bit the tip of his tongue with his teeth as he slowly removed the strange excitement and pleasure from his nerves little by little.
Su Qiuge approached and hurriedly urged him, “Hurry up, it’ll be troublesome if we have to line up when we get there.”
When she spoke, he had already pressed down the shameless and dirty things in his heart without a trace. His expression was calm and composed.
He looked at her for a while, and then he directly stretched out his hand to the back of the girl’s neck and lifted the schoolbag behind her.
Su Qiuge stared at his self-assured movements in a daze and suddenly recalled how when they went to the elementary school to pick up Pei An’an, he had also taken the initiative to help Pei An’an with her bag like this.
When Su Qiuge saw Xie Xinglin\'s actions, she didn’t have any other thoughts about it. On the contrary ——
She felt insulted.
Deeply insulted.
Could it be that in Xie Xinglin’s eyes, she was really the same as Pei An’an?
Therefore, Su Qiuge shook her head and grabbed onto the school bag. She was very stubborn about holding onto her bag, “I can hold onto it.”
Xie Xinglin glanced down at her and saw her holding tightly onto the straps with her small hands and refusing to let go, a sullen expression on her face.
He wasn’t anxious to fight with her over the school bag, instead, he squeezed the straps on the top of the bag and leisurely asked, “Do you know why your legs are so short? Why your height is so short?”
Su Qiuge：？
He indifferently continued, “Continue holding this and wait until it presses you down to the point of making you grow downwards. Next year you will be as tall as my waist.”
“……”
When Su Qiuge heard him say this, she actually felt that he was somewhat reasonable.
In her mind, she had always believed that she could still grow taller, and besides, this year was especially important.
So she has been intentionally buying herself pure milk to drink every night before bed, praying that she will be just a bit taller tomorrow.
But she has heard of such things before——
Those who were growing taller will dream of themselves flying in their sleep. This meant that their body was growing.
Su Qiuge carefully recalled the dreams she has been having lately. In the recent dreams that she could remember, not only did she not fly up…...
She actually……
She actually often dreamed of herself as a radish, one that was buried deep underground.
As a helpless and flat radish, not only did no one water her, but the nearby radishes even stole her nutrients. In the end, all the nearby radishes drilled out a head to see the sun, only she grew to be more and more flat.
All those radishes that had grown out of the ground even competed with each other to mock her, “You can’t grow taller~ You can’t grow taller~”
When this nightmare that resembled an epic saga finally ended, she woke up to find herself rolled up into a ball at some point, with her entire body drilled into the quilt, including her head. She even had trouble breathing.
She suspected that she had woken up from the dream so soon because she had trouble breathing.
When she thought to this point, the emotions in Su Qiuge’s eyes faintly wavered.
What if…...
This was really related to the school bag?
The longer she thought about it, the more Su Qiuge didn’t want to grab that school bag strap. When Xie Xinglin noticed that she finally loosened her hold, he reached out to grab her bag.
Su Qiuge originally wanted to suggest that she could carry it in her hand.
The top of the strap was close to Su Qiuge’s neck, so when Xie Xinglin grabbed the schoolbag, it happened to pinch the tender flesh on the back of her neck. Su Qiuge immediately felt as if she was some small animal that had been pinched on a vital point and didn’t utter a sound.
She obediently watched as the schoolbag that was originally pressing her down was easily held by Xie Xinglin in one hand. He glanced at her and faintly said, “Go ahead.”
Su Qiuge clearly memorized all the various dessert shops near the school.
The dessert shop that was currently doing the sale was very popular. They had ice-cream of various colors in the window display and the fruit-shaped chocolates had a sign saying “Recommend.”
