Huo Ting stood up straight. While picking up his chopsticks to pick up some vegetables from Ye Jinxin's bowl, he smiled and said, ”You've been doing very well recently.”
”No, it's just that from the day I fell down the cliff, I realized that every word you said was for my sake, I shouldn't let you down. When I saw you coming to save me, I became even more determined to do one thing, from now on, I have to be obedient, and I will do whatever you say.”
”Actually, you don't have to listen to every word. You can also have your own ideas. ”
”No!” Ye Jinxin was addicted to flattery. He raised two of his fingers and shook them. He narrowed his eyes and said, ”Every word father says is the truth. The heart will only listen and not resist.” As he said that, he scooped up the vegetables from his bowl and put them into his mouth. He mumbled, ”If you let me eat vegetables, I'll eat vegetables for every meal. What kind of stew with beef and pork? It has nothing to do with me anymore.”
Huo Ting Dong bent over and placed his hand on Ye Jinxin's face. The girl retreated a bit as if she didn't react and Huo Ting Dong said in a deep voice, ”Come here.”
Ye Jinxin obediently moved her face closer to Ye Jinxin. The man took out a tissue from the table and carefully and slowly wiped away the dregs of meat at the corner of her mouth, then said, ”Eat the meat later. Don't put so much in one mouthful, it will easily leave evidence in your mouth.”
With that, he threw away the tissue, straightened his sleeves, and left.
For a long time, Ye Jinxin did that rigid action. This was too embarrassing.
The moment Ye Jinxin arrived at the classroom, she discovered a beautifully wrapped gift box on the desk. She first suspiciously nudged Bai Xiaonan, who was playing games underneath the desk. She waved her hand at Ye Jinxin without moving her face, ”I didn't give this to you, don't disturb me from playing games.”
Ye Jinxin pursed her lips. As she was thinking, should she put away this gift, or should she ask who it was that gave it to her, Gao Yunqi came over?
The boy walked to Ye Jinxin's side and gave her a handsome smile, saying in a clear voice, ”It's from me.”
Seeing Ye Jinxin's hesitant appearance, Gao Yunqi immediately added.
”It's a watch. It's worthless. I wonder if you will like it.”
Ye Jinxin scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, ”Why did you think of giving me a present?”
”I originally promised to tell you when you were climbing the mountain. If you didn't return after a long time, I would have told teacher that you went to the mountain top. I didn't expect that …”
”I'm fine.” Ye Jinxin quickly interrupted him and picked up the gift on the table, ”I know that it's because there's something on at Xiao Nan's home that you accompanied her there. You did well, and I have to thank you for that. As for this gift …”
