Chapter 99: Sweetness Tricking Right Into His Heart

Su Mushi actually believed she had never stayed in a five-star hotel before. This hotel only provided breakfast vouchers and without specific request from guests, there was no dinner service.

This was Yu Yuanxi’s first experience staying in a five-star hotel. After washing his hands, Yu Yuanxi was all ready for dinner when there was a knock on the door.

Standing by the door, Shen Xi nodded at him. “Can I come in?”

With his heart thumping at the sudden appearance of this girl, Yu Yuanxi bashfully bobbed his head. “You were looking for me?”

“Can’t I look for you when there’s nothing going on?” Shen Xi casually put the item she brought over on the table before nonchalantly sweeping a glance in the room. As expected, she saw a dining cart.

The food on the dining cart was exactly the same as the one in her room.

“Have you eaten?” Yu Yuanxi’s nerves got the better of him, getting tongue-tied in her presence.

“Not yet.” Making her way towards the dining cart, Shen Xi suddenly lost her footing when she got close and was able to take a fall.

“Watch out,” Yu Yuanxi cried with concern. Without second thought, he bolted towards her.

Yu Yuanxi managed to catch her before she fell. The save saw the dining cart crashing onto the ground with a thud.

“I’m sorry.” Shen Xi thought it was a waste for the food to end up on the ground. “There goes your dinner.”

“It’s fine.” Yu Yuanxi quickly let go of her. With his face blushing red, he went on a hunt for cleaning tools in a scurry in fear she might notice.

Since her intentions were fulfilled, Shen Xi looked at the young man’s figure and said, “I put some cakes my mom made on the table. It’s to compensate for your dinner.”

Yu Yuanxi could feel his heart jumping out of his chest and his face flushing hot. There seemed to be residue of her chilly temperature and tender sensation left in the palm of his hand.

She was gone by the time he came out.

He looked at the mess with a cheerful grin at the corner of his lips. His eyes melted in loving affection.

The beautiful packaging sitting on the table was brought over by her. Inside were four pieces of cake, each exquisitely made with love.

Yu Yuanxi carefully picked up a piece and tasted it. The sweetness exploded in his mouth, trickling into his heart.

It was his first time tasting something so delicious. Reluctant to eat another after finishing one, he merely stared and grinned at the cakes with a foolish look on his face.

Shen Xi had just returned to her room when there was another knock on the door. She opened the door to Song Wenye, together with the group of girlfriends from the international class. Playing dumb, she shut the door with a wham.

She saw nothing!

She did not know them!

Song Wenye was taken aback for a moment before howling amid sobs. “Xixi, open the door. We’re here to cheer you on!”

Shen Xi wanted to tell them to scream. It was a day before the exams yet here they were, adding to the chaos. Letting out a sigh, Shen Xi opened the door for them in the end.

The group bought some stuff and stuck around for an hour before they unwillingly left.

Refusing to leave under any circumstances, Song Wenye stuck to the sofa and played dead. She would burst out into tears if asked to leave. Talk about drama.

The sight left Shen Xi with the illusion that she was some heart-breaking cheater. She let Song Wenye be in the end since it was not a bad idea to have a witness as an alibi.

Song Wenye had no clue what was up with her. Perhaps she was tired from all the bustle, or maybe she was comfortable in the presence of Lil Xixi, because it did not take long before she fell asleep on the sofa after a glass of water.

“Lil Ye?” Shen Xi went over to pat her face. Certain that she was fast asleep, Shen Xi turned to open the window and agilely took a leap down.
