Just as Su Jiu was feeling smug, she suddenly felt a sharp pain on her tongue and cried out.
Rong Si immediately asked, “What’s wrong?”
“I’m fine,” she replied, rolling her tongue. Hiss, it really hurts too much.
But Rong Si pressed on. “What happened?”
Why is he suddenly so concerned? It isn’t a big deal.
“I just bit my tongue,” Su Jiu answered casually. “Why are you more nervous than I am?”
Rong Si squinted. “You can bite your tongue while brushing your teeth. Is there anyone more stupid than you?”
“You’re calling me stupid again. Any more, and I’ll cut ties with you!”
Rong Si pretended to not have heard that. “Stupid, stick out your tongue. Let me see.”
“No.” He’s calling me stupid again. Hmph! He doesn’t even listen to me. Why should I?
“Hurry up.”
“No.” She was going to make him wait.
Rong Si’s lips twitched, and his tone turned dangerous. “If you don’t listen, I’ll kiss you.”
Su Jiu was speechless. She had really lost to him!
The girl could only stick out her tongue for him. She had indeed bitten it quite hard, and the tip of her tongue was bleeding.
Rong Si’s expression darkened. He frowned slightly as if he was worried.
Su Jiu comforted him instead. “I just bit it. It’s not a big deal.”
“Pay more attention in the future. If you’re hurt, I’ll be hurt too.”
When Su Jiu heard his words, her heart softened. Suddenly, she felt a sweetness in her heart. Even her tongue did not hurt anymore!
After she finished washing up, Rong Si sprayed some painkillers on her tongue, then let her go to class.

When they arrived at school, before Su Jiu got out of the car, Rong Si reached out and pinched her cheek. “Don’t talk to boys with ulterior motives, especially Han Siye.”
Su Jiu chuckled at his serious expression.
No way! Is he still thinking about Han Siye?
“Alright, I understand. You too. Be good and behave yourself. Don’t think about flirting with women just because you’re handsome!”
Rong Si smiled and took her hand. “I’m confident in my self-control. Go to class. I’ll wait for you after school.”
The words “I’ll wait for you” sounded strangely pleasant when he said them.
Su Jiu’s heart melted again. While Rong Si was still waiting for her answer, she leaned in and kissed his cheek. “See you!”
After opening the door, she was about to get out when Rong Si suddenly grabbed her. Before she could react, his lips were on hers.
Su Jiu still had to go to school, so Rong Si did not go overboard. It was just a light kiss, but it made her heart melt.
Rong Si smiled at the little girl’s flushed face. “Next time, just kiss me here.”
He pointed to his lips.
Su Jiu’s face turned even redder as she stammered, “W-Why do you care? I’ll kiss you wherever I like! Also, I’m already being nice by kissing you. Don’t push your luck!”
Rong Si’s smile deepened. “I always want to push my luck with you.”
“Ow, stop flirting with me, I can’t take it!”
Su Jiu quickly got out of the car and fled.
Rong Si watched her from the back of the car, his lips curled. He realized that he seemed to have smiled more since he’d been with her.
He was getting happier and happier than he had ever been since she agreed to be his girlfriend. At the same time, he was uneasy. He was worried that one day she would stop liking him and then abandon him and leave.
