Lin Xiao asked Gu Ruoxi, "How do you know I don't like lychees?"

"Last time you took me to eat hot pot, the free fruit in the hot pot restaurant was lychees, but you didn't eat any. I guess you might not like lychees."

After saying that, Gu Ruoxi looked at Lin Xiao, "Do you like to eat them? Then I'll leave this box of lychees for you, and I'll buy more later."

As Gu Ruoxi spoke, she placed the lychees she had just packed on the coffee table.

Lin Xiao put the lychees and longans into the bag and said, "I won't eat them. You can take them back."

“I can’t eat this much.”

"Eat slowly." Lin Xiao said, "I don't really like eating fruit."

"I guess you just don't like eating fruit. You need to eat more fruit to get better skin,"

Gu Ruoxi said as she reached out to touch Lin Xiao's face.

Lin Xiao quickly stepped back to avoid it.

Gu Ruoxi withdrew her hand, lowered her head, took out the box of longan and placed it on the table.

She added: "My dad didn't like eating fruit before, so my mom and I fed him, and then he developed a habit of eating fruit. Look at how good my dad's skin is. He's almost 40, but his skin still looks like he's in his twenties. The boys in our class don't have as good skin as him."

Lin Xiao suddenly had the scene of Gu Chengxiu and Qianmei selecting fruits in the supermarket in Country M in his mind again.

However, Gu Ruoxi's voice came again, "My dad always liked to let me eat sour fruits like oranges and tangerines. He said that I should supplement vitamin C, but I like to eat sweet things."

Lin Xiao looked at Gu Ruoxi's young face with deep sadness, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.

Now when Gu Ruoxi talks about Gu Chengxiu, she doesn’t cry as much as before, but she is still very sad.

Lin Xiao found himself feeling sorry for the child.

He sensed the danger he was in! He warned himself not to develop any inappropriate feelings for the child.

He said: "Let's go."

"Lin Xiao," Gu Ruoxi grabbed Lin Xiao's arm and asked, "Do you think Wang Qian is okay?"

"She's fine." Lin Xiao pushed Gu Ruoxi's hand away.

"I'm fine too," Gu Ruoxi said, "There are many good girls in the world. Can you date all of them? You have to choose the one you like."

Lin Xiao sensed the jealousy in Gu Ruoxi's words, and he became even more scared.

He was afraid that Gu Ruoxi would fall in love with him.

He was even more afraid that he would fall in love with Gu Ruoxi.

He tried to tell himself that Gu Ruoxi was still a child!

he can not!

Absolutely not!

Seeing that Lin Xiao didn't say anything and there was a frown on his brows, Gu Ruoxi lowered her head and sadly put on her schoolbag.

"Lin Xiao, are you in a hurry to leave? Then let's go downstairs together."

A minute ago, he decided to stop associating with Wang Qian.

But at this moment, he nodded and raised his foot.

Gu Ruoxi also raised her foot. As she walked, she said, "Lin Xiao, I will listen to you from now on. Please don't ignore me, okay?"

Lin Xiao turned sideways and saw Gu Ruoxi looking up at her.

The pleading look in Gu Ruoxi's eyes made Lin Xiao suddenly wonder if Gu Ruoxi was pretending?

But she heard Gu Ruoxi say again: "There will be a parents' meeting this Saturday morning. Can you go to it for me?"

Lin Xiao nodded, "What time?"

"Eight o'clock in the morning."

"I'll be there on time."

Gu Ruoxi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "Luckily I have you, otherwise no one would take care of me."

There was a hint of water in Gu Ruoxi's eyes.

Lin Xiao quickly avoided looking at Gu Ruoxi and said, "Wait a moment."

Lin Xiao returned to the living room and took out the soothing and brain-nourishing soup that Tang Yue had prepared for him and handed it to Gu Ruoxi, "Go back and drink it."

Gu Ruoxi looked at the insulated lunch box. "Who gave it to you? Wang Qian? Did Wang Qian personally cook for you?"

After three questions in a row, Lin Xiao could tell that Gu Ruoxi didn't like Wang Qian.

This made Lin Xiao even more afraid that Gu Ruoxi would fall in love with him.

In my heart, the desire to continue dating Wang Qian and even get married became stronger and stronger.

He didn't lie to the little girl. He said, "No, it's the soup that Mrs. Lu made for me. I don't want to drink it. You can take it back and drink it."

Gu Ruoxi didn't take the insulated lunch box that Lin Xiao handed to her. She said, "Why do you always like to give away things given to you by others?"

Lin Xiao: "..."

Gu Ruoxi pouted again, "Mrs. Lu is really a worrywart. When I went to her house the other day, her belly was so big. She was about to give birth, but she still worried about other people."

Lin Xiao could hear the sour taste in Gu Ruoxi's words, and he said, "Let's go."

Gu Ruoxi pouted and followed Lin Xiao to the door. Just as Lin Xiao opened the door, Gu Ruoxi suddenly said:

"Lin Xiao, I don't want to leave. I'll stay at your house tonight. I have a lot of homework. It will take time to go on the way. Otherwise, I'll have to work until very late after finishing my homework tonight."

Without waiting for Lin Xiao to speak, Gu Ruoxi quickly said, "Don't worry, I promise not to cause any trouble."

Lin Xiao told himself that he couldn't let Gu Ruoxi live in his house anymore.

But Gu Ruoxi begged again: "Lin Xiao, I still have questions I don't know how to answer."

"I might come back very late." Lin Xiao said.

Gu Ruoxi paused for a second, then she said, "I forgot, there is a test tomorrow."

Lin Xiao thought to himself: As long as I can control it, everything will be fine.

So he said, "Then do your homework. I'll be back after dinner. If you have any questions, leave them and I'll explain them to you when I get back."

"Yeah, okay." Gu Ruoxi nodded vigorously.

……

When Lin Xiao arrived at the western restaurant, Wang Qian had already arrived.

Lin Xiao said: "I'm sorry, I'm late."

Wang Qian smiled and said, "I just arrived."

Lin Xiao handed Wang Qian a set of cosmetics that he had bought for her on the road. "This is for you. The shopping guide said it's very useful."

Wang Qian took the cosmetics and asked, "Why do you have to give me a set of cosmetics?"

Lin Xiao lied: "I thought you girls like to wear makeup, so I gave you some cosmetics."

Wang Qian looked at Lin Xiao and smiled, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

As they were eating, Wang Qian said, "Lin Xiao, Mr. Lu has transferred money to our Wang family. Thank you."

"Mr. Lu's business affairs have nothing to do with me. Mr. Lu's investment in your family shows that you and he have a win-win situation."

Lin Xiao was cutting steak and avoiding Wang Qian's eyes. He said this so that he and Wang Qian would both think that their relationship had nothing to do with Lu Nancheng.

It has nothing to do with business.

Wang Qian lowered her head and began to cut the steak. She chose to do the same as Lin Xiao and deceive herself.
