Chapter 60: Love You For Ten Thousand Years
It wasn’t that Ning Xi hadn’t noticed that Lu Tingxiao’s attitude towards her was unusual, but Lu Tingxiao always stopped at the right point. If she overreacted, it would unavoidably seem like she was assuming he had feelings that might not actually exist.
So as if she was hearing a normal question, Ning Xi gave a normal reply: "Male!"
Lu Tingxiao narrowed his eyes imperceptibly. "Are you coming back tonight?"
This question… hearing it sounded more and more like…
Ning Xi brought out her acting skills, and pretending this question wasn’t ambiguous at all, she said nonchalantly, "I’m not so sure about that, when the time comes, I’ll call you. I’m running late, I’m going upstairs first!"
Tonight, many unexpected things were bound to happen; what if she couldn’t take it anymore, and wound up beating up Jiang Muye that guy the whole night?
Ning Xi quickly ran upstairs to grab a big black satchel before hugging Little Bun and kissing him goodbye at lightning speed.

Little Bun looked blank for a bit, before his expression instantly shattered, as if the world was ending.
And so, a certain father finally found some equilibrium.
Little Treasure started sobbing, and grabbed his evil father’s cellphone to complain to Auntie Xiao Xi.
