Chapter 770 - Maybe She Misses It
Chapter 770: Maybe She Misses It
Translator: Yunyi
The next day, no matter how much Song Yaoyao didn’t want to go to class, she still had to go.
She was no longer the Song Yaoyao from her previous life. She had to step out into the light; she couldn’t hide in her own world forever and not interact with outsiders.
There were very few people at the school gate. It was foggy and it was still early.
Song Yaoyao got out of the car and stepped onto the ground.
Xu Yue and Tang Xinrou had not arrived yet.
“Song Yaoyao.”
She stopped in her tracks and turned her head.
After not seeing him for a long time, Huo Ningxi had changed a lot.
His handsome short hair was cut short before, but now it was more masculine with a buzz cut. His facial features were long and his body had an additional mature temperament.
Compared to before, he was now closer to a man.
The young girl looked at him as if she didn’t know who he was anymore and didn’t know what to say.
Even though she didn’t think much of him before, she still felt stifled when she saw this scene.
His throat was slightly dry, and he took the initiative to invite her. “Let’s go together? Have you had breakfast?”
As soon as he asked the question, Huo Ningxi gave himself a mental slap in the head. Was there a need to ask?
Judging by his uncle’s love for her, he was definitely taking care of her like a daughter. As for Uncle Zhang, with him around, he didn’t have to worry about her starving.
“I ate.”
Song Yaoyao tugged at the strap of her school bag and nodded lightly. She hesitated for a moment. “What about you?”
Actually, she didn’t have much of a grudge against Huo Ningxi. They had fought each other in the past, but if one looked at it seriously, Huo Ningxi really didn’t have anything against her.
He was just a little brainless.
But it was understandable. People were swayed by emotions, not to mention Huo Ningxi and Song Jingwan were childhood sweethearts.
“Not yet, I’m not too hungry.”
Huo Ningxi grinned and smiled. He put his hands in his pockets and followed Song Yaoyao slowly, almost half a step behind her.
The atmosphere quickly became awkward.
Song Yaoyao said politely, “Th-then remember to eat. Not eating breakfast is bad for your stomach. I will keep an eye on you every day...” Before she could finish, Song Yaoyao shut her mouth in time.
She did not mean it, but there was no need for her to say these words in front of Huo Ningxi.
“Okay.”
Huo Ningxi’s expression was very calm. The biggest change in him was that he was no longer as impetuous as before. His temperament was also becoming more and more composed. He was somewhat similar to Huo Yunque.
“Thank you.”
Song Yaoyao nodded slightly. She lowered her head and quietly walked up the avenue. It was a cloudy day today, and the weather was slightly cool in the early morning. The large trees with luxuriant foliage blocked out the dim light completely, making the road seem even longer and quieter.
“Are you such a stranger now?”
Huo Ningxi pursed his lips and shrugged.
He turned his gaze to the side of the girl’s delicate face. Her nose was delicate, and her eyelashes were drooping.
“I saw what happened on Weibo. Congratulations,” he said, pretending to be relaxed.
“Wh-what?”
Song Yaoyao suddenly raised her head, and the next second, she quickly looked away. Her earlobes were slightly red, and she said embarrassedly, “That was an accident.”
“Huh?”
Huo Ningxi found it funny so he did not delve into the meaning behind Song Yaoyao’s words.
“Song Yaoyao, I think we might be talking about different topics.”
“You—”
Song Yaoyao glared at him like a cat that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. “Are you here to mock me on purpose? No wonder I saw you at the school gate early in the morning! Huo Ningxi, do you want to be beaten up by me again?!”
She waved her fist threateningly and walked past Huo Ningxi angrily.
Huo Ningxi chuckled softly and squinted at the young girl’s slender back, his eyes flashing with nostalgia.
“Maybe a little....”
