Jiang Sui returned to his room with a dull expression and lay on his bed, his eyes a deep chill.
He suspected that if he hadn't come out just now, he would have strangled that slender waist and silenced that little mouth that had been spewing such irritating nonsense. What a heartless creature.
He stared at his phone and waited for a long moment.
He decided to give Su Qing a chance to mend his ways.
He had already played several games.
Extraordinary King: [F**k, Brother Sui, you've been killing like crazy today. Are you so angry?]
Cute Girl Ai Ye Wang: [Little Brother, you want CPDD?]
Extraordinary King: [F**k, Brother Sui, are you always this charming in the game?]
Sui: [I'm leaving]
Blackhead's cold, offline demeanor.
Jiang Sui tossed his phone aside. A long moment later, it rang.
He couldn't wait to answer the call without even glancing at it.
"You know you are wrong already?"
? !!!!
Hu Yifan, the person on the other end of the phone, was puzzled and asked, "What the hell, Brother Sui, are you still going to play? That girl just now wants to play two more rounds with us."
Jiang Sui said no and decisively hung up the phone.
Jiang Sui held his phone, his eyes narrowed, his face darkening. He still called Su Qing, pursed his lips, and said coldly.
"Didn't you call me just now? I didn't answer. The line was busy!"
Su Qing, on the other side, was momentarily confused. She clearly remembered wanting to call, but hadn't?!
Could she have misremembered?
Su Qing licked her lips. "Hmm."
Their voice was a little soft, and then, after a long pause, in the silence, they both spoke.
"Su Qing."
"Jiang Sui."
They clutched their phones for a moment.
"You say first."
"You say first."
…
For a long moment, the only sounds on the line seemed to be the hum of electricity and the sound of their breathing.
Su Qing heard Jiang Sui cough a few times, his voice a little hoarse.
"You say first."
Looking at the instant noodles on the side of her desk, Su Qing bit her lip. "Jiang Sui, I was a little grumpy just now. Sorry."
"I was…"
Su Qing's eyelashes trembled, her teeth biting her lower lip tightly, her lips pursed, and her palms clenched.
"I was in a bad mood."
She said it with a sigh of relief.
The young man seemed to wait quietly for Su Qing to finish, before the dark shadows in his eyes brightened considerably.
"Well, what else?"
The voice was drawn out.
Su Qing?!
Somewhat confused what Jiang Sui want say, she opened her mouth reflexively.
"Ah."
Hearing this voice, a soft surprise filled her eyes.
Jiang Sui's eyes finally smiled.
"What a heartless little thing."
Su Qing bit her lip, feeling that these words hinted at something, but she wasn't quite sure.
She had actually considered whether Jiang Sui knew about her as well.
But the boy's next words dispelled this thought.
"Not talking?"
"Look at your bag. What did I put in there?"
Su Qing stared at her bag in surprise, puzzled. She flipped through it, but nothing seemed different.
It was still the same things she'd brought.
A test paper, a notebook, and some spare clothes—nothing new.
Jiang Sui listened to the rustling sound of rummaging through the bag for a while before it fell silent.
Then he said.
"Open your notebook, you heartless little one!"
A notebook?
The moment she opened it, Su Qing was stunned...
So, what was inside the notebook?
