She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

"Are you praising me?"

Meng Xia turned her head and stared at him with her bright eyes, with an unstoppable smile in her eyes.

"What? I can't praise you?"

"No, I've never heard you praise anyone before, so I'm a little surprised. I thought the Huo family didn't have the habit of complimenting others!"

After all, in the Huo family, doing well is the norm, and doing poorly will result in punishment.

What's more, with Huo Xi Chengzhuyu in front of her, she couldn't get a word of praise no matter what, and over time, she felt that she was not worthy of praise.

Although it's funny to think about it now, at that time, she was really sad for a long time.

Huo Xibai touched her head and said, "Then I will praise you every day from now on."

"If you praise every day, wouldn't it look cheap?"

"No, because you deserve it."

Hearing this, Meng Xia smiled with crooked eyebrows and reached out to touch his face, "Why are you so good at talking lately?"

"Then should I get a reward?"

Huo Xibai raised his eyebrows and looked at her, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

Meng Xia didn't show any pretense, she knelt down, held his face and kissed him, their lips and teeth intertwined, her clothes were half taken off, and the temperature in the room was getting higher and higher.

However, Huo Xibai suddenly closed her clothes for her. Meng Xia looked up without knowing why, but heard the man's deep and restrained voice, "Go to sleep, I've been exhausted these past few days, and I'm not willing to torment you anymore."

Hearing this, Meng Xia felt soft in her heart and hugged his waist tighter. Just as she was sighing at his gentleness and considerateness, she heard the man whisper in her ear, "After this period of time, I will come back even more." .”

"..."

Meng Xia was speechless for a while, but couldn't help but curled her lips and didn't refute.

She didn't know whether it was because she was too tired or because the man's embrace was too warm. She closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep. Her dreams were no longer about those bloody and depressing scenes, but about those trivial fragments that she had forgotten in the corner -

"Huo Xibai, why haven't you left yet?"

"Slept in the library, what's the problem?"

"No, I thought you didn't bring an umbrella like me."

"How can you go home without an umbrella?"

"I'm waiting for the rain to stop."

The young man glanced at the pouring rain in front of him, raised his lips and sneered, "Are you going to wait until tomorrow morning?"

Meng Xia pursed her lips, looking a little embarrassed in front of this boy who was two years younger than herself.

Suddenly, a black umbrella was handed to her. There was no unnecessary expression on the young man's face, "Let's go."

"You gave me the umbrella, what do you do?"

"I have one more."

With that said, the young man took out another black umbrella from his bag, and the two of them walked out of the school gate holding the umbrella together. On the side of the road, the Huo family's driver had been waiting for a long time.

"Thanks to you today, otherwise I don't know how long I would have waited."

As soon as she got into the car, Meng Xia quickly thanked her, and then suddenly thought of a question, "But then again, why did you bring two umbrellas?"

"The one you have belongs to Lu Zeye."

"..."

Meng Xia couldn't help but widen her eyes, unsure if he was joking, "Then, what should he do?"

Huo Xibai raised his eyelids and looked at her casually, "Then you get out of the car now and give him the umbrella?"

"..."

We've already driven half a mile, and he's just saying it now?

Naturally, Meng Xia didn't get out of the car. After all, it took more than half an hour to drive back to Huo's house from here. She didn't know how long it would take to walk back. She could only pray silently in her heart, hoping that Lu Zeye had brought two umbrellas, or A kind person lent him an umbrella.
