Chapter 349: Chapter 349

Su Li’s body stiffened slightly, leaning against his chest, seemingly able to hear the rapid beating of his heart within.

A flush of red rushed to her ears, leaving her somewhat at a loss. Google seaʀᴄh novel·fiɾe·net

Su Li took a deep breath and said, "I bought you sleep tea, how about you have some?"

Feng Huaijin quickly withdrew his hand and asked lightly, "Are you a woman or not? With that kind of reaction?"

Su Li turned around, looking at him very innocently.

What other reaction should she have?

Feng Huaijin took the paper cup from her hand, lifted the lid, and drank, his Adam’s apple moving gently.

Feng Huaijin leaned against the hood of the car, muttering, "The housekeeper went home today, so it’s just me alone."

Su Li’s heart started pounding, "You... what do you mean?"

Feng Huaijin took a fierce sip of the sleep tea, spoke with displeasure, "You’re making me unable to sleep, shouldn’t you be responsible? You’re the one who forced me to watch a ghost movie!"

He really is afraid of ghosts.

Feng Huaijin looked at the paper cup in his hand, his gaze gradually becoming profound, his voice even deeper: "When I was little, my aunt at home jumped off the building and died, Old Six shut off the power and locked me in her room for a whole day."

Su Li’s heart skipped a beat, seeing Feng Huaijin’s indifferent expression, it hurt a little.

No wonder his reaction was so intense.

Su Li suddenly thought of Tuanzi, when he was on the mountain, unsure of how to come down, he must have felt like Feng Huaijin.

Su Li’s heart trembled slightly, couldn’t help but reach out to hold Feng Huaijin’s slightly cold hand: "I won’t watch ghost movies in the future."

Feng Huaijin looked at the soft, slightly warm little hand, raised his eyelids: "Tonight you..."

Su Li’s eyes lit up, she patted his shoulder and said: "Wait for me a moment, just a moment."

Su Li let go of his hand and dashed upstairs as fast as she could.

A few minutes later, she came down hugging a stuffed bear over a meter long that could bury her, stuffed it into Feng Huaijin’s arms, and said while panting slightly: "It’s for you, hug it to sleep tonight."

Feng Huaijin suddenly remembered Xiao Heng’s vivid analysis earlier, advising him to play the pitiful act, women are emotional creatures, who knows, Su Li might stay with him for the night.

Su Li watched Feng Huaijin’s ever-changing expression, afraid he didn’t believe her, she said insistently: "When I’m scared, I hug a stuffed toy to sleep, I’m giving it to you."

Feng Huaijin glanced at the ugly bear stuffed toy, his gaze settled on her as if it could bore a hole, his voice hoarse and deep: "But I... want to hug a real doll, what do you suggest?"

The tone was lifted gently, carrying an unusual implication in the night.

Su Li’s face instantly turned even redder, her eyes widened like grapes, "You..."

Feng Huaijin squinted his eyes slightly, suppressing the darkness in his eyes.

Su Li frantically said goodbye in haste: "I have military training tomorrow and can’t accompany you, Seventh Master Feng, good night!"

Who the hell said acting pitiful gets sympathy?

Feng Huaijin downed the sleep tea in one go, tossed the cup into the trash can, and was about to get in the car and leave.

Su Li, this little rascal, someday she’ll beg for a hug!

Let’s see if he’ll pay attention to her then!

Feng Huaijin inserted the car key but didn’t have time to start the car when the door was knocked.

He opened the car door and raised his brows to look outside.

The old man outside the car patted the trash can, heartbrokenly saying: "Young man, you can’t throw trash without sorting it, there’s a fine!"

Feng Huaijin: "...Oh, sorry."
