As she expected, her brother had become more thoughtful than before, as he had gotten familiar with her and her friends.
“Sure. Su loves milk tea the most.” Luosang pushed Yan Su on the shoulder. Yan Su felt a little awkward. Before, she might consider that as an accident, but now…
She sneakily glanced at Mo Liuxi and found him looking at her as well. “Yeah? I didn’t know,” he said with a faint smile.
Yan Su stayed silent.
He’s so good at pretending. He used to see her drink milk tea.
The three of them walked into the shop. Luosang ordered a cookie milk tea, while Yan Su ordered a plain milk tea. When it was Mo Liuxi’s turn, he hesitated a little, then said, “Milk tea, plain, please.”
Luosang curved her lips slightly and said, “Ah, you and Su like the same kind of milk tea.”
Yan Su became nervous. She was afraid that Luosang might find out what was going on between her and Mo Liuxi.
Before she said anything, Mo Liuxi had said coldly, “There’s a special offer today.”
Luosang turned to the small blackboard on the counter. The blackboard indicated that plain milk tea was half-off.
“Eh… Liuxi. If you need money, you can tell me…”
He didn’t need to save money like that. The milk tea cost no more than twenty.
“It’s not like that. I’m saving money so I can give it to my future wife.” Mo Liuxi turned around, with his back to the two girls.
Hearing his words, Yan Su lowered her head to look at the tips of her toes, with her mouth corners twitching. She pretended not to hear it.
Luosang blinked and wondered if she misheard him. Her brother had actually talked about giving his money to his future wife. He was never interested in having a girlfriend at all.
She grabbed Mo Liuxi over and said to him, “Liuxi, do you have your eyes on some girl already?”
“No. I saw Xiao Si and his girlfriend a few days ago. I feel that having a girlfriend would be nice,” Mo Liuxi answered her while watching the shop staff make the milk tea.
“Oh. Si and Nuanyi.” Luosang nodded. “I hadn’t seen Si ever since he and Nuanyi got together. He used to follow Nian Junting everywhere. Since he disappeared, Junting started following me everywhere… Eh, let’s not talk about that trouble of mine.”
Mo Liuxi and Yan Su were speechless.
Is that really a trouble of yours? Does your husband know how you feel?
The two of them had the same questions.
“You’re right.” Luosang patted her brother on the shoulder. “If you found a girl that you like, you have to let me know. I have only one requirement for your future girlfriend; it’s being kind.”
“Emm,” Mo Liuxi responded.
The milk tea was ready. Mo Liuxi handed the cups to the two girls.
When taking the milk tea, Yan Su somehow felt his fingers stroking the back of her hand; it made her feel itchy and numb, as if an electric current was running through her hand.
She abruptly drew her hand back, and the milk tea fell toward the floor.
Mo Liuxi swiftly bent over and caught the teacup, saving it from falling and splashing all over the floor.
“What’s wrong?” Lusoang asked.
Yan Su blushed. She couldn’t tell Luosang the truth. “There was electricity on the cup. It hit me…” she stuttered.
“Emm.” Mo Liuxi nodded. “It was static, very strong. My fingers are even numb. Thankfully, I reacted fast enough, so the milk tea wasn’t wasted.”
“Autumn is dry and statics can happen a lot,” Luosang said knowingly.
Yan Su sighed with relief. Fortunately, Luosang didn’t find out the truth.
Mo Liuxi was too reckless. They weren’t even in the restaurant yet. What would he do when they got to the restaurant?
She wanted to run away. But, could she still do that?
