Chapter 107: Chapter 107 Want Xiao Xu, Not Mr. Su

He saw her looking so silly and was even more speechless! Wasn’t he indebted to her? Every time she had an outbreak, she showed up in front of him!

But she had just returned from the Ghost Gate after all...

His expression softened a bit, "I hope it hasn’t damaged your brain!"

"..." What kind of comment was that? She could mock herself like this, but she couldn’t allow others to say it! However, in front of Mr. Su, she always lacked confidence. Earlier, her declaration of attitude had exhausted all her courage. Now, she could only glare at him with small eyes to express her dissatisfaction.

"Don’t glare at me, you’re already ugly! You’ll never get married like this!" A stupid and ugly girl, truly worrying!

In the end, this comment directly infuriated Tu Hengsha. What was he dissatisfied with? Did he despise her for being ugly? For being stupid? For being a burden? Was she worthless in his eyes?!

"Mr. Su! I’m ugly! I’m stupid! I can’t get married! That’s my own business! I don’t need you to worry about it! You should worry about your own mouth! At this rate, you’ll never find a girlfriend!" After saying this, she turned the thought over in her mind. He wasn’t this sarcastic with others, especially since he spoiled his sister. It was only her he targeted! She felt even more upset, still hoping he would have some sympathy for her narrowly escaped life. But she had overthought it! Then again, it was actually him who saved her life! Without him, she would probably have been gone when she was five years old...

Inexplicably, she thought about all the hardships over the years, and her eyes brimmed red with tears once again.

She felt like such a disappointment! She clearly intended to appear strong in front of him! But she always ended up failing! She would even start crying easily! For so many years, she wasn’t someone who liked to cry, so why was she crying like a ghost in front of him? But she couldn’t hold back! What was going on?

"I... How did I end up in the hospital?" She remembered that she needed to ask this, associating his comment about owing her from a past life. Could it be that he saved her?

His face practically said: You guessed it. Then he looked down at his own bandaged arm.

She had noticed his arm early on and initially wanted to show some concern as a newbie to him as her teacher, but the conversation had veered off course! She asked with reddened eyes, "Did you get hurt saving me? Was that you in the car?"

She remembered Sun Yulin’s men chasing her at the time. If he indeed saved her, there must have been a fierce battle...

"So, you say you don’t need me to worry. Tell me, is it possible?" His expression seemed to say, Your life is mine...

Tu Hengsha’s tears, held back in her eyes, suddenly flowed down, "What should I do? I didn’t want you to save me! Why did I have to meet you? Why wasn’t it someone else? Do you think I want this?"

He was speechless, tearing a tissue to wipe her tears. His voice rolled out with a slight huskiness, "Why are you so silly..."

His sudden closeness and the tenderness of his fingertips made her temporarily overlook this "silly" comment. She was immersed in her own troubles, "I can never repay what I owe you in this life. I don’t want this either..."

"Just remember, remember! Keep it all on account! We’ll settle it slowly later..." He continued wiping her tears, yet his fingertips only absorbed more, "I tell you, could you stop crying first? You’re doing better! Don’t be upset..."

"But I don’t want to cry! I’ve never cried so much in my life! And it’s all because you bully me!" She cried with her eyes closed, her sobs mixed with accusations — accusations of his prejudice against her since their reunion.

"..." How did he bully her? He lightly coughed, "Could you please stop crying? If you stop, I’ll give you something."

"What...?" What was this about? She sniffled, opening her eyes.

Taking this thing out was indeed a bit challenging for him. He coughed again, awkwardly producing a rainbow Bangbangtang from nowhere, identical to the one she had seen but not bought at the supermarket.

The exact Bangbangtang from when she was five years old, only the chubby little hand then had now turned into a hand with long, slender fingers and distinct knuckles.

It was as if she could hear again the childish voice of the little boy by her ear: Grandma says, when you’re feeling sad, your heart is sour. A piece of candy can make it sweet...

If these words were a spell, healing all her pain and hardship over the following twenty years, then reuniting with him was the chance to break that spell. In fairy tales, it’s always the Prince and Princess meeting that breaks the curse, the sleeping Princess waking to live happily ever after with the Prince. Here, too, was a curse-breaking, but the result was entirely different.

"Do you want it?" He tucked the Bangbangtang into her hand.

No! No! The little boy from back then didn’t do it this way! She returned the Bangbangtang to him, shaking her head.

"What’s wrong? You don’t want it?"

She lowered her gaze. Yes, she didn’t want it!

"Really don’t want it? Just a lick!" He began unwrapping it with one hand.

She reached to stop him, "I really don’t want it..."

"Why?" He stopped unwrapping it.

After a moment of silence, she softly replied, "I only want Xiao Xu’s candy, not Mr. Su’s."

After she finished speaking, the room fell into a long silence.

She didn’t dare to look up at him until a heavy breath came from above, and a hand rested on her head, the faint scent of green grass drifted under her nose, and there came his slightly muddled voice, "Why are you so silly?"

"..." She suddenly wanted to cry again, although she didn’t want to admit it, but she was really such a foolish person!

Silly is also obsession.

His hand caressed her head gently and warmly, and this gentleness and warmth could summon tears far more than his scolding. She truly became a weeping mess today...

"I’m Mr. Su, yet I’m also Xiao Xu, remember." He sighed lightly.

She shrank into the blanket, hiding from the warmth of his palm and the faint scent of green grass. He had said this before! And there was a whole string of additional content that followed, she remembered them all!

"What is it now?" Why did she hide under the blanket at every turn? Managing with one hand made it difficult to pull the blanket from her!

"You’re not Xiao Xu!" After saying this, she covered her head with the blanket.

"Come out!" His tone involuntarily grew heavier. She was already panting, would she suffocate and not be able to breathe again?

She revealed her eyes and nose, yet kept her eyes firmly shut, refusing to open them. Humph, just now he claimed to be Xiao Xu, and in no time turned into Mr. Su. Even Sichuan opera face-changing wasn’t this quick! Never believing a man’s words again!

"Tired? Want to sleep?" He asked.

Keeping her eyes shut, she ignored him.

"Alright then, get some good rest. You’re just recovering, don’t exert yourself too much, and don’t cry anymore. Call me if you need something, I’ll be here." Regardless of whether she responded, he gave his advice.

She sulked internally, thinking contemptuously to herself, it’s precisely because of you that I’m crying! Who would ask for you?!

"Why are you hiding your nose under the blanket again? Come out for me!" He was at his wits’ end, how could there be such a disobedient child?

The disobedient little girl was actually quite tired. After creating the fuss, she muddleheadedly fell asleep again.
