Seeing Ning Xi, Zhuang Li imdiately went up to her, his face full of concern. He asked, "Miss, why are you so late today? Did sothing happen?"
"I..."
"Xiao Xi had a question she couldn't solve, so we stayed a bit longer."
Ye Fan answered first.
Zhuang Li glanced at Ye Fan, a hint of displeasure in his eyes. "I wasn't asking you."
Ye Fan wasn't embarrassed. He turned to Ning Xi with a smile and said, "Let's go."
"...Okay."
Ning Xi looked guilty and replied softly.
Zhuang Li stood rooted to the spot, staring at their retreating figures.
This...
What was going on?
Miss, have you lost your mind!!!
Ye Fan opened the door and gestured for Ning Xi to co in.
"Please."
Ning Xi didn't say a word. This ti, she didn't sit on the sofa but walked straight to the refrigerator, took out the glass of lemonade, and started sipping it on her own.
Take that, for touching my head, pinching my cheeks, and holding my hand...
I'll drink you bankrupt!!!
Ye Fan shook his head and chuckled. He could roughly guess what the girl was thinking but didn't expose her.
He put down his backpack and closed the door.
Ning Xi imdiately beca alert. She hurriedly put down the glass and hid behind the sofa.
"W-why did you close the door?"
Every ti she ca to Ye Fan's place before, he would leave the door open. Now, looking at the closed door, she panicked, fearing that Ye Fan might have so ulterior motives.
A mischievous smile appeared on Ye Fan's face as he slowly approached Ning Xi. "Little beauty, what do you think I'm going to do?"
Ning Xi froze, her face pale.
Oh no!
Ning Xi, are you stupid?
He asked you to co, and you just ca?
Now you're trapped...
"Just kidding."
Seeing Ning Xi's terrified look, Ye Fan quickly stopped joking and explained, "Aren't we going to your house for dinner tomorrow? So I bought a more formal outfit to show respect to your parents."
"I asked you to co over today just to get your opinion on the clothes. If you don't like it, I'll have to hurry and exchange it with the store."
"Huh?"
Ning Xi was stunned, a look of suspicion in her eyes. She asked tentatively, "Just for this?"
"What else would it be?"
Ye Fan spread his hands helplessly and said nonchalantly, "Don't tell you really thought I was going to do sothing to you. You're overthinking it!"
"..."
Ning Xi's face flushed red with anger.
What did he an by overthinking it?
She wasn't unattractive, how could she be overthinking...
Ye Fan pointed to the door and said with a faint smile, "I'm going to change, I can't leave the door open, can I? Although I'm changing in the bedroom, it's still better to close the door."
"Alright, stay here in the living room, I'm going to change."
Ning Xi breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Ye Fan's back.
Ye Fan, who had reached the bedroom door, suddenly stopped, turned around, and smiled at Ning Xi. "Oh, and you can't peek at changing."
"..."
Before Ning Xi could retort, the bedroom door had already closed.
The girl gritted her teeth.
Humph!
She wouldn't peek even if he begged her!!!
"So narcissistic."
Ning Xi muttered softly, then continued sipping her water on the sofa, but she couldn't help but feel curious about Ye Fan's clothes.
More formal clothes?
As her curiosity grew, her fondness for Ye Fan unconsciously increased.
It was just a simple dinner, but Ye Fan had specially bought a new outfit for it. He really was...
As she thought about it, Ye Fan's face appeared in her mind, and her face instantly flushed red.
After about five minutes, the bedroom door opened.
Ye Fan walked out. His hair shone with a black luster, and his handso and sunny face, paired with his deep and mysterious eyes, exuded a unique charm.
His tall and slender figure wasn't bulky, but it seed to contain great strength. He was dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, and the outline of his muscles could be vaguely seen through his white shirt, giving off an unparalleled sense of security.
Standing there alone, his calm deanor was mixed with a hint of otherworldly detachnt.
Ning Xi was stunned, the glass she was raising to her lips frozen in midair.
"Xiao Xi, what do you think?"
"It looks good..."
As soon as the words left her mouth, the girl realized sothing was wrong. Her expression beca unnatural, and she lowered her head, her face slightly flushed.
"That's good."
Ye Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Those two words spoke volus.
He looked down at the tie in his hand and had an idea. He walked up to Ning Xi, placed the glass of water from her hand on the coffee table, and then placed the tie in her hand.
"Uh... w-what are you doing?"
Ning Xi stared blankly at the tie in her hand, completely confused.
Ye Fan sat down on the coffee table, their legs touching, and said with a smile, "I don't know how to tie a tie, can you teach ?"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Ning Xi almost threw the tie in her hand.
Tie a tie?
Ye Fan nodded, his voice low, "Xiao Xi, I've taught you so much in your studies, it's not too much to ask you to teach how to tie a tie, is it?"
"I..."
"You're not going to refuse, are you?"
"You..."
Ning Xi held the tie, hesitated for a mont, and said in a soft and shy voice, "I... I've only helped my dad tie his tie once or twice, I'm not very good at it."
Ye Fan blinked with a smile. "It's okay, just treat like your dad."
"..."
Ning Xi raised her hand and hit Ye Fan playfully, a hint of reproach in her eyes. "What are you talking about?"
She considered Ye Fan a good friend, but he actually wanted to be her dad.
That was too much!!!
"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue."
Ye Fan quickly explained, "What I ant was, just tie my tie like you would for your dad. Don't worry, I learn things quickly, I'll get it after watching you do it once."
Did he know how to tie a tie?
Yes!
He was doing this just to get Ning Xi to tie it for him. He had only enjoyed this treatnt once in his previous life.
Now that he had such a good opportunity, he naturally wouldn't miss it.
How did that saying go?
Only a fool would miss out on a good deal!
"I'll... try."
Blushing, Ning Xi wrapped her delicate hands around Ye Fan's neck, straightened the tie, and moved very gently.
The girl was completely unaware of how intimate their current posture was, her eyes focused intently on the task at hand.
Ye Fan narrowed his eyes, almost wanting to etch the beautiful face in front of him into his mory, his eyes overflowing with affection.
Fortunately, Ning Xi was completely focused on the tie at the mont. Otherwise, she would definitely have noticed sothing was off with Ye Fan.
The girl's movents were indeed a bit clumsy. She fumbled for two or three minutes before finally managing to tie the tie properly. She straightened up, looked at it from different angles, and nodded with satisfaction.
"You tied it really well."
Ye Fan complinted.
This ti, Ning Xi noticed their posture. She quickly moved back, her heart pounding in her chest. "No, no, I didn't do a good job. Did... did you learn how to do it?"
"No."
Ye Fan shook his head and blinked innocently. "Xiao Xi, could you tie it for one more ti?"
