Chapter 46: The Familiar Necklace

After all, he had taken advantage of the girl.

“So, how about you beat me up to vent?” Lin Beixiu said, bracing himself.

Qin Muxue clenched her fists and slowly approached him. Lin Beixiu lowered his head, standing still, ready to be hit, when he heard Qin Muxue’s voice.

“Since you didn’t give up just now, let’s continue.”

Lin Beixiu: ……

Is there a difference? He’s still going to be hit.

“No, I give up.”

He was already out of energy from fighting.

“What did you say? I didn’t hear it.”

Lin Beixiu: !!

“Go easy on me….ow.”

……..

After packing up, the two walked out, Lin Beixiu rubbing his arm, following behind her.

Qin Muxue’s lips curved slightly, she had calmed down after realizing his reaction, at least the kid had learned to take some advantage, even if unintentionally.

At first, she was just a bit shy, after all, it happened so suddenly, and she hadn’t used much force afterwards.

The most important thing was, she had won the bet.

Qin Muxue turned around with a smile, “Little brother Bei, I won.”

“Mm.” Lin Beixiu shook his head with a wry smile.

Happiness was leaving him.

“Let’s go, it’s still early.”

Lin Beixiu was led by the hand and taken away by her. Lin Beixiu was startled and instinctively tried to pull his hand away, but Qin Muxue glared at him, and Lin Beixiu reluctantly stopped his hand, allowing her to lead him out of the campus contentedly.

Lin Beixiu looked down at his palm, hard to imagine that such soft arms had exerted so much force just before.

Soon after, Qin Muxue took him to a milk tea shop.

“Do you want some milk tea?”

Lin Beixiu shook his head, “No, I don’t like it.”

He really didn’t like milk tea, and he didn’t understand why Qin Muxue asked him.

“Oh, okay.”

Lin Beixiu then heard her order a double-skin milk pudding and a fruit tea, then handed the double-skin milk pudding to him.

“I…..”

Lin Beixiu was thinking about refusing when Qin Muxue cut him off.

“Just take it.”

Qin Muxue thrust it into his hand and then started drinking her own fruit tea.

“From now on, no more alcohol for you, when you want to drink, eat this.”

Lin Beixiu looked at the milk pudding in his hand and began to eat it, a burst of creamy flavor and smooth texture spreading in his mouth, indeed quite delicious.

“Tasty.”

Hearing his words, Qin Muxue felt a bit of heartache for a moment, knowing that Lin Beixiu rarely ate these kinds of things, including the snacks she bought, which she would also share with him.

“Sorry about earlier, I didn’t mean to touch you.”

Feeling guilty and because Qin Muxue was treating him, he said it subconsciously.

Qin Muxue: ……

She turned around and glared at Lin Beixiu, her cheeks flushing, “You’re still talking about it.”

“Cough, I’ll stop talking.” Lin Beixiu turned his head away, not looking at her.

…..

When they returned home, Lin Beixiu, with his sore body, walked into his own bedroom.

“You go cook, I’m tired.”

Qin Muxue laughed, “You’re that weak, huh?”

Lin Beixiu: ……

He was completely exasperated.

“You damn…”

Remembering her skills, Lin Beixiu immediately shut the door and then lay down on the bed.

Soon, there was a knock at the door.

“Little brother Bei, can I come in?”

“No.” Lin Beixiu said, unenthusiastically.

However, the door still opened a crack, and Qin Muxue poked her head in, smiling as she walked in.

Lin Beixiu just glanced at her and lay back down.

“You’re not afraid I’m not dressed?”

“Heh.”

She wasn’t afraid now, she would love to see it again.

Qin Muxue looked around his bedroom, which was still very clean. She turned her gaze to an album on the desk.

“I’m just looking around, and by the way, hand over the stash from last time.”

Lin Beixiu: ……

“There’s none left.”

Qin Muxue gave him a look, when will you change the habit of having a shifty gaze when lying.

“Hurry up, what was the bet again?”

Lin Beixiu got up reluctantly, finally reaching under the bed and pulling out five or six cans of beer.

Qin Muxue clicked her tongue lightly, “That’s quite a few.”

She put the beer on the table, her gaze inadvertently caught the album she hadn’t looked at before, and she saw the pentagram necklace at the edge.

Qin Muxue’s eyes widened as she stepped forward and saw a photo of two children together in the album, wasn’t that them….

So, he had always kept it.

Qin Muxue reached for the necklace, her eyes full of memories, remembering his unannounced departure, she felt a bit angry.

Lin Beixiu saw her standing at the desk but didn’t say anything, however, when she picked up the necklace, he hurried over and took the necklace from her hand.

“Everything else is okay, but you can’t touch this.”

Lin Beixiu carefully hung the necklace back up, looking at the girl in the photo with an increasingly tender gaze, Qin Muxue felt she had never seen such a look in his eyes.

“Is this girl the Sister Mu you mentioned before?”

Lin Beixiu nodded, “Yes, she was also my only playmate when I was a child.”

Qin Muxue smiled, teasingly joked, “Girlfriend?”

“No.” Lin Beixiu said, annoyed.

“What’s on your mind?”

Lin Beixiu handed her the beer, “Go out.”

Qin Muxue was thus pushed out by him, but now, her mood was really good. After putting away the beers, she sneaked back into Lin Beixiu’s room.

“Why are you back?”

Lin Beixiu lay on the bed, speaking irritably.

“Ah haha, why can’t I come?”

Qin Muxue covered her mouth and giggled, “It’s not my first time seeing your room, just curious.”

“Also, when will you cook?”

“I’m tired, I won’t cook.”

Qin Muxue: !!

Was he cutting off her food rations?

“Isn’t that a bit much, are you holding a grudge?”

“What are you saying, I don’t understand.” Lin Beixiu lay on the bed, smugly speaking.

Qin Muxue clenched her fists in anger, this rascal was retaliating.

But now…..hehe.

Qin Muxue’s face broke into a mischievous smile as she rushed at him, Lin Beixiu hadn’t reacted when Qin Muxue had already pinned him down, her hands clamped over his head.

“Let me go.” Lin Beixiu’s face flushed, he urgently spoke.

He was too weak to struggle free.

Qin Muxue smiled wickedly, “Little brother Bei, are you ticklish?”

!

Before Lin Beixiu could respond, Qin Muxue’s wandering hands were already hovering in front of him, then probing towards his waist.

“Pfft….hahaha”

“Ha…stop it….hahaha.”

After who knows how long, Qin Muxue finally stopped her hands, looking down at Lin Beixiu gasping for breath.

“How about that?”

Lin Beixiu didn’t speak, still too breathless from laughing. After catching his breath, he gritted his teeth and cursed.

“Get the hell off me.”

Qin Muxue smirked playfully, seeing her smile, Lin Beixiu had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, Qin Muxue again employed her skilled tickling technique.

“Ha….”
