Min Yu coughed gently when he saw Huo Tingrui staring at him like he wanted to eat him alive. He turned and helped speak up for him, “Your brother doesn’t mean any harm.”
Even though Huo Tingrui was played, he had to keep smiling.
This asshole!
Huo Yao looked sideways at Min Yu and smiled ambiguously.
Min Yu’s eyes remained cool and he said nothing. He headed to the cabinet by the side and opened the drawer to retrieve two books. “These are for you.”
Huo Yao raised her brows as her eyes landed on the books. The cover contained only English and was entitled, ‘Clinical Psychology’.
Huo Yao took the books from him. They consisted of two volumes and were the original version in English. She raised her head somewhat surprised. “How did you know I have been reading about Psychology lately?”
“You talked about it previously,” said Min Yu calmly. He was tall and seemed dignified just standing there.
Huo Yao recalled chatting about it on her way home when she got a ride from him from the library. She did not give it much thought at that time. “This series is really rare, so I appreciate it. Thanks.”
Min Yu looked at her and smiled. “Welcome.”
Huo Tingrui instantly felt like he was nothing but air as he sat on the couch. He promptly stood up and asked. “What books are these?
Huo Yao looked at him sideways before she held the books up to show him the covers.
The moment Huo Tingrui spotted their English titles, he had an awkward look on his face.
Oh god! He could not even understand the titles.
Even though Huo Tingrui really wanted to know what books they were, he pretended he understood the titles since there were outsiders present. He pursed his lips and said, “Aren’t they just some English material? If you want more of those, I can get you as many as you want.”
Huo Yao glanced at him quietly. “Brother Tingrui, I suggest you stop talking.”
Huo Tingrui went speechless. “…”
Huo Tingrui veered his eyes when his sister spoke to him in disdain. He lowered his head and spotted his little sister’s slippers before he turned to glance at Min Yu’s.
They were the same design but in different colors.
Huo Tingrui proceeded to check out the slippers on his feet. His head started buzzing nonstop. After some time, he turned to stare at Min Yu with daggers in his eyes.
This dude certainly harbored evil intentions for his little sister!
Min Yu raised his head when Huo Tingrui looked at him murderously.
Huo Tingrui glared at Min Yu before he looked at his sister. “Yao, let’s trade slippers.”
Huo Yao was caught by surprise and looked at him quizzically.
Where was this coming from?
“Come on. You can wear mine,” said Huo Tingrui solemnly.
He decided to take off his slippers first and placed them in front of his sister’s feet out of fear that she might refuse.
If the man wanted to take advantage of Huo Tingrui’s little sister, he had to get past him first!
Huo Yao went speechless. “…”
At Huo Tingrui’s insistence, Huo Yao finally took off the slippers.
Since women’s shoes were far smaller, half of Huo Tingrui’s foot remained outside the slipper after he forced his foot into it. Huo Yao raised her hand and pressed her forehead.
She could not bear to look at this sight.
Despite the discomfort, Huo Tingrui felt triumphant. He could finally raise his chin smugly and cast a provoking eye at Min Yu.
Min Yu’s lips twitched as he glanced at the ill-fitting pink slippers on Huo Tingrui’s feet.
