Chapter 204 Flirting in the Bathroom (2/2)

Xiao Bing laughed. “I’m also shocked by her intelligence as well. The girl is truly a prodigy.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Brother Bing, all of Yezi’s family members are gone… If you and she won’t mind, you can move into our house. My sister’s room is vacant…”

“I know.” Xiao Bing seemed slightly depressed at the mention of Su Xiaoxiao’s sister.

Having noticed the dismay on Xiao Bing’s face, Su Xiaoxiao sighed and spoke in a low voice. “There’s no need to be sad. It’s all in the past now. And my mom still doesn’t know about it.”

Xiao Bing nodded. It was indeed something in the past, but he had not taken vengeance for this woman, which was still an entanglement in Xiao Bing’s heart. He once thought that he would find some evidence in Su Xiaoxiao’s place, but he failed. Maybe that one had lied to Su Peiya just for some money or maybe it was just a trap designed to kill Su Peiya and make Xiao Bing suspect his brothers in the Dragon Gate.

Anyway, no matter what the reason was, Xiao Bing decided to get back to the Dragon Gate after his strength was restored and begin to search for the people who set that trap for Su Peiya.

Xiao Bing asked smilingly, “How’s your mom been lately?”

“She’s quite good.” Su Xiaoxiao sighed. “Ever since she had left the hospital, especially after you started helping the business in the noodle house, the burdens on my mom’s shoulder were removed. She had been so tired these years and I have never seen her so blithe before.”

“Alas, she had experienced so much and it’s time for her to enjoy life. You should suggest to your mother that she should rest at home or take a walk outside more often. You ought to meet her demands as best as you can. I’m in the noodle house. There is nothing that she needs to worry about.”

Li Chunlan heard what Xiao Bing just said when she walked out of the kitchen. She was touched. “Xiao Bing, Peiya is so fortunate to have you as her friend. You don’t need to worry about me. I have become so much better after I left the hospital,” said she in a soft voice, smiling.

Xiao Bing grinned. “Not only has auntie’s body become much better, but you also will live to a ripe old age.”

“I like that sweet tongue of yours. All right, I should leave you two. Dinner is almost ready. Yezi is really a lovely girl. Though she’s not very good at cooking, she’s still one of the few girls who have such diligence.”

Xiao Bing guffawed. “Auntie, that doesn’t sound like a compliment.”

Li Chunlan seemed a little shy. “It is. She’s not like my Xiaoxiao or Peiya… She’s from such a big family, and girls from big families usually aren’t this polite and handy.”

Yezi craned her head out of the kitchen and glared at Xiao Bing and then she smiled. “Auntie, I like your compliment. The dish has been fried. How much salt should I use?”

Li Chunlan chuckled. “Just leave it to me. Lil Bing, go and wash your hands. Dinner is almost ready.”

“Okay.”

Smiling, Xiao Bing stood up and walked to the kitchen with Su Xiaoxiao. The tap was turned on and the two put their hands into the water in unison. Their hands accidentally touched and then they both withdrew their hands as quick as a frightened animal. Su Xiaoxiao averted her eyes shyly. Then their four eyes met and Su Xiaoxiao rapidly hid from Xiao Bing’s gaze, timidly.

In fact, Su Xiaoxiao was as beautiful as a girl next door and was aloof as a lotus that just rose above water. She was an innocent but cold beauty. She was rarely this shy, and the timidness stirred Xiao Bing’s mind. His eyes were opened wide uncontrollably.

In a moment, they both could hear their beating hearts.

“Thump, Thump, Thump!”

The two reached out their hands simultaneously. “You first.”

Once again, Xiao Bing’s hand touched her smooth and soft hands.
