Xie Xinglin initially wanted to leave, but halted in his original spot when he heard their conversation. He glanced sideways at Su Qiuge.

Su Qiuge also gave him a look.

It probably meant——

I have no more moves. Why don’t you give it a try?

When Xie Xinglin received her glance, he seemed to have pondered for a moment, then unhurriedly took out a pack of tissues from his jacket and handed it to Su Qiuge.

After Su Qiuge took the tissue, she carefully thought about it again and then turned around to the girl and earnestly said, “Old girl, listen to my advice, it’s like this, what good is it to like men?”

**t/n: old girl — an intimate form of address in the Northeastern dialect and can be used on those younger than you

The girl continued to cry and choked on her sobs, “B-but, I’m not interested in women.”

Su Qiuge:“……”

Is this the second person to get full marks in reading comprehension after Su Yuanzhou??

“I didn’t mean that. I know you’re not interested in women. What I’m saying is that, rather than liking men, you might as well like studying instead. At least, how much you like studying is how much studying will reciprocate you, it’s much better than those scumbags.”

When Xie Xinglin, who stood off to the side, heard the word “scumbag,” he faintly raised his eyebrows and his gaze fell on Su Qiuge with some deep meaning.

When the junior sister heard what she said, she stopped crying so fiercely. Instead, she sniffled while staring at Su Qiuge dazedly.

Su Qiuge noticed that there was some effect and, more or less, felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. Without thinking more about it, she continued to say, “And if you think about it, if you were to study well and get rich in the future ——”

She pointed to Xie Xinglin, who stood at the entrance of the stairs, with raised eyebrows and exposed a very disdainful expression, “Just those kinds of little white faces, you can raise as many as you want.”

The girl was dumbfounded. She followed Su Qiuge’s fingertips and glanced at Xie Xinglin’s gradually glooming face, and she didn’t dare to cry anymore.

Su Qiuge saw that her comforting was effective and patted her back with gratification, “Your class is working on listening skills today, you should quickly go. If you wait any longer, you won’t be able to make it in time. How important are English listening skills? Is it worth it to give up thousands of men for this one man?”

After she finished speaking, she even smacked her lips and added, “I even feel it’s not worth it on your behalf.”

The girl sized up Xie Xinglin with her two eyes before her gaze fell on Su Qiuge, then as if she understood something, she whispered, “Thank you, senior sister.”

After the girl left, Su Qiuge breathed out a sigh of relief. To be honest, she wasn’t very good at comforting others.

When she turned around and about to go upstairs, Xie Xinglin’s eyes fell on her. He unhurriedly opened his mouth and said, “Scumbag? Little white face?”

Su Qiuge:“……”

Oh no.

At the time, she was only worried about comforting the girl and forgot about this thorny issue.

Xie Xinglin approached her and then slightly loosened the neckline of his school uniform with his hand.

He looked down at her from above, “Were you talking about me?”

Su Qiuge retreated a few steps, “It was just to comfort others.”

“What’s more……”

What’s more, Xie Xinglin’s appearance at school really appeared similar to that.

So what she said was not completely baseless.

Xie Xinglin’s expression was exceedingly calm, and he used his eyes to motion for her to continue speaking.

Su Qiuge suddenly had the desire to survive so she promptly shut up and changed the topic, “The second half of the evening self study is about to start soon. Seatmate, we should go back to class.”

She turned around and went up the stairs, “After I get back to class, I still need to work hard. I need to copy the rest of today’s notes and then prepare for tomorrow’s lesson while I’m at it.”

Xie Xinglin clearly wasn’t going to let her change the topic so easily. He followed behind her and glanced at her white nape for a moment, then his plain tone was mixed with a few hints of teasing as he said, “Working hard so that you can raise a little white face?”

Su Qiuge:“……”

Why can’t we move past this hurdle?

Without thinking, Su Qiuge directly turned her head around and said, “I was joking, am I such a shallow and lecherous person?”

But what she didn’t expect was that at that moment, Xie Xinglin just so happened to be standing one step below her. When she turned her head around, her lips directly brushed against his lower jaw.

Su Qiuge was slightly taken aback and realized that she didn’t notice when he had unexpectedly walked so close to her.

When he felt the soft touch of a girl’s lips on his lower jaw, Xie Xinglin was slightly startled. The expression in his eyes changed and the Adam’s apple in his slender neck faintly rolled.

He stared at her lips, raised one of his eyebrows, and then expressionlessly asked, “You’re not?”
