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

Meng Xia carried the book and went to the study, planning to spend the whole day in the study, but she didn't expect to bump into Huo Xibai——

Huo Xibai was lying on the balcony sleeping. The afternoon sun fell on him, coating his already delicate face with a layer of gold, like an elf who had fallen into the mortal world.

Meng Xia held her breath unconsciously, for fear of waking him up——

He obviously has such a harmless face, but why is he so evil-minded?

Meng Xia couldn't help but wanted to reach out and poke him in the face, but she pulled back the moment she was about to touch him. She was just imagining it, how dare she actually take action.

Although she had yelled at him out of anger two days ago, she regretted it when she came back, fearing that he would think of some evil idea to torment her again, but fortunately he didn't.

This doesn't seem so bad.

The moment this idea came up, Meng Xia immediately shook her head and refuted it. She knew people but knew faces but not hearts. She had already experienced his bad intentions and could no longer be fooled.

Even so, Meng Xia couldn't help but bring a blanket to cover him. After all, it was winter now. Even if it was noon, he would inevitably catch a cold if he slept on the balcony.

The fluffy blanket unfolded and Meng Xia carefully placed it on him. However, he didn't expect that as soon as it was covered, the man who had his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes——

"what are you doing?"

Her breath was suffocated. Because she had to cover him with a blanket, Meng Xia almost looked like she was lying on him to hug him. Although there was still a distance of more than ten centimeters, she had already broken through the normal social distance——

Meng Xia had never been so close to him, so close that she could even see her own reflection in his dark pupils under his curved and curled eyelashes.

! !

After a few seconds of looking at each other, Meng Xia, who was the first to react, stood up straight and subconsciously defended herself, "I, I didn't want to do anything. I just happened to see you sleeping here and I was worried that you would catch a cold, so I , I just covered you with a blanket..."

After just one sentence, Meng Xia was stumbling, and his teeth and tongue seemed to be fighting in his mouth.

Huo Xibai didn't speak, his dark eyes stared at her quietly. Meng Xia lowered her head in his gaze, gritting her teeth and regretting why she had to meddle in other people's business. He even threw away his own things, so how could he do it? Need her blanket?

Just when she was about to turn around and leave, Huo Xibai suddenly moved, wrapped the blanket tightly and closed his eyes again.

Meng Xia couldn't help but froze in place and blinked, that's it? Not angry?

She couldn't guess what Huo Xibai was thinking. She just wanted to get away from right and wrong quickly. She was originally going to go back to her room, but there wasn't even a desk in her room. After hesitating for a while, she settled on the desk farthest from Huo Xibai. Sat down.

The bookshelf blocked Huo Xibai's body. From Meng Xia's perspective, he could only see Huo Xibai's legs, and he couldn't help but think to himself——

What does he mean? They obviously had a fight two days ago, so why does it seem like his attitude has improved again today?

Besides, isn't he usually very busy on weekends? Why did you fall asleep here today?

After being lost in thought for a while, Meng Xia suddenly came to his senses and quickly opened the book to review——

This semester, due to the death of her parents and the transfer of schools, she has already missed many courses, and her already poor grades are in jeopardy.

Although he has no talent in learning, Meng Xia has one advantage - diligence.

As long as she made up her mind to study, she could sit in the chair all afternoon.

After dinner in the evening, she immediately returned to the study to study. It wasn't until about ten o'clock in the evening that she squeezed the roots——

She didn't know whether it was because she had been reading for too long or because the questions were too difficult. Her eyes were sore and swollen. She originally planned to lie down on the table and rest for a while, but unexpectedly she fell asleep while lying on her stomach -

When Huo Xibai passed by the study, he saw the faint light coming from the crack in the door. He couldn't help but pause. After hesitating for a moment, he pushed the door open and went in. He immediately saw Meng Xia lying on the table -

She seemed to be asleep and didn't react at all to her opening the door.

After two seconds of silence, Huo Xibai walked over with a cautious step that he didn't even notice.

Meng Xia fell asleep lying on the table, with study materials and notebooks at hand. Huo Xibai could see her beautiful handwriting and dotted marks.

I don't know how long she had been watching, but Meng Xia suddenly trembled and muttered something. Huo Xi heard it clearly with his white eyebrows and just watched her slowly raise her head -

"Why are you here?"
