C81 Just Play Around for a Bit and You'll be Fine

"It's nothing!"

She must have seen wrongly. Chi Qingyu closed her eyes, crazily hinting to herself that she definitely saw wrongly, which was why she was able to see that kind of emotion from that pair of cold eyes.

Xie Qirann noticed her unstable mood and frowned. "Then what are you doing with your eyes closed?"

Chi Qingyu screamed inwardly without closing her eyes. "Are you looking at me!?"

Usually, when she peeked at his face, she would feel very handsome. Now that she was closer, when she looked more carefully, Chi Qingyu remembered that sentence. One couldn't look at him from afar and tease him.

As expected, those who looked good were better off watching from afar. Looking at it from such a close distance, it was easy for their heart to beat faster.

"Cough." Chi Qingyu calmed herself down by coughing, "Young Master Xie, is there anything you want to tell me?"

Seeing that she had regained her composure, Xie Qirann suddenly lost his temper. He looked at her silently for a while and then let go, "I'm fine."

Leaving her in the carriage when she had nothing else to do, Chi Qingyu rolled her eyes, got up and walked out.

This time, Xie Qirann did not stop her. When she got out of the carriage, Chi Qingyu looked back and found that Xie Qirann also came out.

Jing and Han Jiu had already disappeared. They should be home by now.

Chi Qingyu couldn't help but sigh when she thought of the dark and long alley that she would take.

Her sigh was very soft, but Xie Qirann, who was behind her, still heard it.

"What are you sighing for?" Xie Qirann asked her.

Chi Qingyu raised her head. The sky was completely dark now, and all she could see was the crescent moon. Looking at the moon, Chi Qingyu suddenly thought of the place where she used to live.

"Does Young Master Xie like to look at the stars?" Chi Qingyu suddenly asked Xie Qirann.

Xie Qirann followed her line of sight. Although he didn't understand what she meant, he still smirked, "I don't like it, I don't hate it."

Don't like it? Chi Qingyu turned around and looked at him in surprise. In her impression, there were very few people who didn't like the moon. Young Master Xie was really different from others in everything.

"This month changes every day. I can't control it. There are too many variables." Seeing her surprise, Xie Qirann explained again.

With that said, Chi Qingyu understood. This was manipulating and controlling everything, which was why she didn't like the bright and round shape of the moon.

Chi Qingyu couldn't help but chuckle. "Young Master Xie is indeed a sincere person."

Hearing that, Xie Qirann's face contorted. He probably couldn't relate the word 'sincerity' to his own, and Chi Qingyu was also the first person to use the word 'sincerity' to describe him.

However, Chi Qingyu didn't see Xie Qirann's expression. She lifted her hand and grabbed the moon in the sky. Naturally, she couldn't catch it. However, this action made her laugh. She retracted her hand and looked at Xie Qirann, "Young Master Xie, I'll take my leave first."

As he spoke, he jumped down from the carriage and prepared to leave.

However, Xie Qirann took a few steps to the side and said in a low voice, "I'll send you off."

Chi Qingyu was stunned. She wanted to reject him, but before she could say anything, Xie Qirann had already walked to the front. Thus, Chi Qingyu couldn't be bothered to continue talking and kept up with Xie Qirann.

As they walked through the dark alley, they could only rely on the lanterns and the moonlight to see the road in front of them.

It had rained last night, so the path in the alleyway was not easy to walk on. Chi Qingyu took a few steps and stepped on her skirt many times.

Xie Qirann walked beside Chi Qingyu quietly. He walked very steadily, as if this road was peaceful in his eyes.

Taking two steps forward, Chi Qingyu stepped into the dent and fell against the wall. Xie Qirann reacted quickly and pulled her back, "Are you alright?"

Chi Qingyu smiled helplessly and said, "Tell me about a good Beijing city with such a rotten path. You really deserve to be scolded!"

Xie Qirann was silent for a moment before he smiled and said: "Yes, it's time to scold."

Xie Qirann held Chi Qingyu's wrist behind her sleeve and said, "Let me pull you away."

Without waiting for Chi Qingyu to speak, he pulled her along and continued walking.

Chi Qingyu staggered a few steps and followed Xie Qirann's footsteps. She lowered her head and saw that man grabbing her hand.

Under the moonlight, Xie Qirann's hand actually emitted a faint light, like a deity that descended into the world, which made Chi Qingyu lost in thought.

Xie Qirann's palms were very hot. The heat passed through the fabric and reached Chi Qingyu.

The two of them maintained this posture. After walking for who knows how long, Xie Qirann suddenly stopped.

Chi Qingyu almost bumped into him, but stopped in time. "We're here?"

Xie Qirann's height completely blocked Chi Qingyu's sight. She moved to the side and saw the road in front of her. They were still in the alleyway, and not far ahead was Chi Qingyu's house.

"Why aren't you leaving?" Chi Qingyu asked doubtfully.

Just as she was about to step forward, Chi Qingyu was easily pulled back due to the increased strength in her hands.

Xie Qirann looked straight at her and lowered his head.

His back was to the moonlight. Chi Qingyu couldn't see the expression on his face, but she felt his grip tightening around her.

Chi Qingyu cried out in pain, "Hey, hey!" What are you thinking? Hurry up and let go. "

After struggling for a while, Xie Qirann did not let go.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?" Chi Qingyu rubbed her hands as she asked unhappily.

Xie Qirann didn't say anything, he just sighed and leaned forward.

Unexpectedly, Chi Qingyu was pressed down by him just like that. Her body fell backwards along with Xie Qirann's weight, and before she lost her center of gravity, a warm feeling came from her back.

It was Xie Qirann's hand. She was very close to Xie Qirann and could even hear the breathing coming from above her head. Chi Qingyu was shocked by this scene and didn't know what to say.

Xie Qirann maintained this posture, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

When Chi Qingyu reacted and pushed Xie Qirann away, he stepped back a step earlier. Chi Qingyu stumbled again and fell back against the wall.

Xie Qirann stood in front of her, raised his hand, and extended five fingers towards her. He took a step forward, revealing his innocent face under the lantern.

Chi Qingyu was stunned for a moment. She recalled where his hand was at earlier, all the alluring feelings in her heart turned into anger, "Xie Qirann!"

"Here!" Xie Qirann replied with a smile on his face.

Chi Qingyu reached out her hand to grab his neck. However, Xie Qirann was a martial artist, how could he let Chi Qingyu grab him so easily? She quickly retreated, avoiding Chi Qingyu's hand.

The two of them were like children as they chased each other through the alleyway.

"Xie Qirann!" "Don't let me catch you!" Chi Qingyu shouted as she chased after him.

He didn't care about such threats at all. After all, a person that couldn't even catch up to him, what was there for him to be afraid of?
