Lu Zhuo’s doting gaze made Bai Mengyao’s heart ache. It was as if he was looking at a treasure.
“Lu Zhuo… She pushed me. Why didn’t you do anything?” Xu Jiaojiao said resentfuly. Lu Zhuo did not say anything and just frowned as he stared at Bai Mengyao.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Bai Mengyao looked upset.
On the way back, Xu Jiaojiao passed by a small private room. Suddenly, someone grabbed her and closed the door, pulling her into the darkness.
There were no lights in here. She could only feel someone hugging her and covering her mouth. She could not call out even if she wanted to.
“It’s me!” A familiar voice said into her ear, and the hand left her mouth.
“What are you doing? You scared me to death.” Xu Jiaojiao was still in shock.
“Why did you go to the bathroom for so long?” Qi Shenbai could not help but ask.
“I met Bai Mengyao and Lu Zhuo…” Xu Jiaojiao told Qi Shenbai everything that had happened. She did not hide anything. To her, that was how couples should be. There were no secrets between them.
When Qi Shenbai heard the whole story, he scratched the tip of her nose. “Did you really push her into the water again?”
“Yeah! She was framing me for something I didn’t do. Wouldn’t it be better for me to do it anyway before Lu Zhuo scolded me for no reason?” Xu Jiao jiao pouted.
“Alih, you’re really too cute.” Qi Shenbai pulled her into his arms.
“Is it because I eat cute things?” Xu Jiaojiao asked teasingly.
“No,” Qi Shenbai said. His lips were right by her ear, his warm and moist breath blowing against her skin. “You’re the natural embodiment of cuteness.”
“You’re lying…” Xu Jiaojiao was overjoyed, but she pretended to retort.
“No, I’m speaking the truth,” Qi Shenbai said, then kissed Xu Jiaojiao’s soft lips. Xu Jiaojiao felt a wave of moisture on her lips, and then they became hotter and hotter, followed by a numbing sensation.
She fell limply onto Qi Shenbai’s body. She did not have any strength anymore and could only rely on Qi Shenbai’s arms to support her.
Qi Shenbai held the back of her head with one hand and her waist with the other.
“Your knees went weak just like that? Then what about later…?” There was a hidden meaning in Qi Shenbai’s words. Although Xu Jiaojiao was young, she could tell what he meant.
“What do you mean by later?” Xu Jiao jiao pretended not to know.
“What do you think 1 mean? 1 don’t want to wait too long.” Qi Shenbai really did not know how long he would be able to hold back. Although the little girl was cute, she was also seductive!
He was at the age when his body was most active. It was not his fault for wanting more, right?
Xu Jiaojiao blushed. “Luoluo and Yun are still waiting for me. 1 have to go back to them.”
“Alright, go!” Qi Shenbai did not stop her. He was afraid that if he said too much, he would scare her off. Moreover, she was still young, so he could not bear to…
Xu Jiao jiao had just taken a few steps when she bumped into Su Luo and Qi Yunduo. The two of them were holding hands as if they were good friends who had known each other for a long time.
“Jiaojiao, where did you go? The chairman of the judging panel is looking for you!” Qi Yunduo hurriedly said when she saw Xu Jiaojiao.
“Oh, 1 went to the bathroom.” Xu Jiaojiao lied, but the blush on her face did not fade.
Qi Yunduo asked concernedly, “Jiaojiao, what’s wrong with your face? Why is it so red? Are you sick?”
Qi Yunduo did not know why, but Su Luo could see that Xu Jiaojiao’s lips were red as well, and that was no lipstick.
“I’m fine,” Xu Jiaojiao said as she pressed her hand against her cheek. It was indeed quite hot. It was all that man’s fault for always being so domineering.
“Hey! Don’t ask anymore, let her get back to the banquet hall! The chairman is still looking for Jiaojiao!” In the end, it was Su Luo who tried to smooth things over for Xu Jiaojiao.
“Alright,” Qi Yunduo quickly agreed.
As they walked back, Su Luo whispered into Xu Jiaojiao’s ear, “Were you with Qi Shenbai just now?”
Xu Jiaojiao’s face turned even redder, but Su Luo did not probe further. She knew her best friend was the shy and blushy type. She could keep her mouth shut.
After Xu Jiaojiao entered the banquet hall and met up with the chairman of the panel, Su Luo and Qi Yunduo left tactfully to find something to eat.
The president was still puzzled by what had happened at the award ceremony, so he asked, “Did you really draw that brushstroke wrongly on purpose, or did someone else…?”
The chairman also had his doubts. After all, Bai Mengyao had handled all the paintings before submitting them to the jury.. The fact she accused Xu Jiaojiao after that was highly suspicious!
