A Snow Biscuit
Chapter 56 Drinking Milk Tea
The short, bespectacled girl to Xia Xinyu's left had been hearing about Xia Xinyu's tall and handsome male companion who walked her home.
Moreover, this boy seemed particularly aloof, yet he was so warm towards Xia Xinyu.
They also said that Xinyu, with her usually good temper and gentleness, was unexpectedly skilled at training boys in private, making them so afraid of her.
And seeing him today, he was indeed very tall, probably around 185cm.
His face was also very handsome, but not in a feminine, idol-like, delicate way. It was a sunny, clean, and refreshing kind of handsomeness, radiating masculinity at the same time.
How to put it? A completely non-effeminate handsome guy.
"I told you, I told you, he even brought milk tea for Xinyu. Isn't he afraid of being caught by our school leaders?" Another girl, who had seen Chen Yuan on the bus before and also witnessed the big-breasted beauty, cautiously reminded him after seeing the boy waiting for Xia Xinyu at the gate, "Doesn't he know that Fourth High is so perverted that they use surveillance cameras to catch early romances?"
"It's not that kind of thing." After awkwardly responding to her friend, she took the initiative to say goodbye, "Well, I'll go over there first."
"Okay, okay, I won't be a third wheel." The girl waved her hand with a mischievous smile.
And the short, bespectacled girl said in a low, slightly perverted voice, "Tell me more about your stories when you have time. The story of a handsome guy and a beautiful girl is just too good. After my phone was confiscated, I, a parasite that feeds on the nourishment of love, can't replenish the nutrients I'm missing."
"Don't joke around, bye."
After waving her hand slightly, Xia Xinyu walked up to Chen Yuan.
As soon as they met, Chen Yuan reached out and handed her the Super A Cheese Peach Tea: "Less ice, you can drink it... It's okay, you can drink it whenever."
"Okay... thank you." Xia Xinyu smiled and nodded as she took the milk tea.
Is he worried that I can't drink cold drinks during my period?
He's much more considerate than he looks.
No, he's always been considerate.
Hey, I give you milk tea and you still talk about me like that?
What? That's pure slander!
Spreading yellow rumors!
"Aren't you drinking?" Xia Xinyu saw that Chen Yuan only had one cup, and hadn't even inserted a straw, so she looked up at Chen Yuan.
"I... don't like to drink it."
Just as he was about to reveal the fact that he had robbed Zhou Fu of a hundred yuan, Chen Yuan finally couldn't bring himself to say it.
Of course, that didn't mean he was being a coward and afraid to tell the truth.
It was a matter of respect.
Respect for women, you know what I mean?
Chen Jianye: Son, you finally understand me.
It's different from those truly henpecked husbands!
Also, why did your inner voice intrude?
Get out, don't pollute my database of a real Southeast man!
But Chen Yuan's 'I don't like to drink it' was like the mother who loved to eat fish heads in elementary school reading, wanting to save the good stuff for herself, in Xia Xinyu's eyes.
So she inserted the straw into the milk tea, took a sip, and handed the milk tea to Chen Yuan: "It's too big, help me drink some."
Xia Xinyu's lips, moistened by the milk tea, looked even more luscious. The high ponytail revealed the perfect contours of her face, giving her a Jiangnan water town kind of delicate charm.
So when she pointed the milk tea straw at him and looked at him without dodging, Chen Yuan was truly frozen in that moment.
Frozen in place.
Chen Yuan pointed to the two people hiding behind a lamppost and asked, "Are your friends tabloid reporters?"
"... " Hearing this, Xia Xinyu slowly turned her head, looked at the two who had just taken out their phones and were about to take a sneak photo, and her cheeks turned red. Then, she lowered her head, and took big gulps of her milk tea while tugging on Chen Yuan's clothes, reminding him to leave quickly.
Indeed, it was time to change places, there were too many radar detectors here, getting caught taking a picture would be terrible.
"Ah, I didn't get a picture, I was discovered!" The girl who had planned to record this moment with her phone covered her forehead with her hand in regret, "It's too pure, this pure and ambiguous scene is the first time I've seen it on Xia Xinyu."
"The key is that she's pretty, if someone else was this pure, it would be like they were putting on an act."
"Nonsense, who doesn't like to see a pretty girl act spoiled? If Xia Xinyu gave me milk tea that she drank with her thin lips... Why aren't I a boy?"
"Even if you were a boy, she wouldn't like you."
"Shut up!"
The girl with the phone glared at the bespectacled girl, then waved her hand and continued to sneak around: "Following the lens of the cameraman, we continue forward to see what this lion..."
"Where's the lion?"
"Isn't that the lion?" The girl's voice had just faded when she suddenly realized something, then slowly turned her head, and seeing that serious and mean face, her pupils instantly dilated in shock, "No, teacher, I..."
"Playing with your phone outside of school means you definitely played with it in school too." The thin man grabbed her phone, "I'll give it back to you if your class is in the top twenty on the monthly exam."
After snatching the girl's phone, the thin man with the bag left on the spot, without saying much.
The girl stood there, the pain of losing her phone had not yet ended, and seeing the teacher about to leave, she stiffly turned her gaze to the couple who were walking side by side...
It's over!
If she was discovered having a puppy love, and having a puppy love with a boy from Eleventh High, with Old Class Teacher's perverted level, even a well-behaved girl like Xia Xinyu would not escape blame.
Even if she scored only 0.5 points lower than last time on the next test, he would use it as an excuse—"Look at you."
Although no one knew what he wanted people to look at, who wouldn't be afraid when this sentence, 'Look at you,' came out?
"Teacher, please, please, let me go!" Suddenly, the girl grabbed the teacher's arm, begging bitterly, "I won't bring my phone again, I'll die if I bring my phone again..."
"Don't pull and tug, it's not like I won't give it back to you, I'll give it to you next time you're in the top twenty!"
The teacher was numb from this action, afraid of being photographed online and paired with a title like 'Fourth High teacher is an animal in clothing, actually xx to a girl!' His bonus and title evaluation for this year would be ruined, so he quickly reprimanded her.
"Teacher, please give her the phone back! Please!"
"No, what does it have to do with you? Also, why are you jumping around, are you crazy?"
The short, bespectacled girl suddenly opened her arms like Patrick Star, jumping in front of her, coupled with the other girl's delaying tactics, Xia Xinyu and Chen Yuan gradually merged into the crowd and disappeared...
"They're too entangled, don't mind it." Xia Xinyu explained.
"I don't mind." Chen Yuan shook his head, rarely commenting on a woman, "Moreover, they're pretty good."
Compared to the horrible people Zhou Fu encountered, Xia Xinyu had some luck in her social interactions.
Of course, this had to do with her own personality.
Seemingly gentle and introverted, Xia Xinyu was also a clear-headed person.
Unlike Zhou Fu, if she disliked someone who had bad intentions, Xia Xinyu would stay away from them, never forcing herself.
Xia Xinyu's exquisite mind recognized that he was a good person.
"What aspects are you referring to when you say 'good'?" Xia Xinyu suddenly asked.
He had just said she was considerate, but he directly praised other girls in front of her...
Hey, it feels like he's not considerate again.
When have I ever been considerate?!
"Hmm... similar to a classmate in my school named He Sijiao. Although she's a bit of a smart aleck, likes to act like a sword, and sometimes does things that are hard to call human, let's just say she's a good person." Chen Yuan explained.
"Does your classmate know you talk about her like this behind her back..."
"She says the same about me behind my back."
"Oh, I understand." Xia Xinyu nodded with a smile and explained for them, "It's like this, although they were taking pictures just now, please rest assured that they won't post them everywhere, they'll just..."
"Disgust you, right?"
"Ah ha... according to your understanding, you can say that." Xia Xinyu then realized that the difference between her and Chen Yuan's personalities was quite big.
It always felt like they weren't on the same wavelength.
Are you trying to say that when a Tieba abstract boy meets a pure female high school MMR (Moe Moe person), right?
"This is my first time at Fourth High, is there anything around your school?" Chen Yuan suddenly asked as they were about to walk to the station.
Xia Xinyu heard that he meant for her to take him around.
Although her budget was a bit tight, they were at Fourth High after all, and she had to do her part as a host, so even if she borrowed a little from her classmates, she felt she should treat him.
So, Xia Xinyu said with a smile, "Well, there's a street behind the school, it's very lively around seven o'clock. It's almost that time now, let's go."
Xin Bao is going to treat me even if she has no money?
Should I tell her that Zhou Fu lent me money, otherwise she'll really go and borrow it...
"Hmm?" Just as Chen Yuan was hesitating, Xia Xinyu suddenly held the milk tea out to him.
Should I just confess that I already drank a cup?
"You drink it, I..."
Before Chen Yuan could finish speaking, a coolness covered his face.
After a moment of stunned surprise, Chen Yuan looked at her.
This time, no one was taking pictures, but he was frozen.
Xia Xinyu pressed the milk tea against her cheek, then handed it to him again, teasingly 'questioning', "Why are you being so polite with me?"
