Chapter 61 Chapter 61: Xiao Cheng Embarrasses Himself Online(4)
Xu Yecheng raised a hand and rubbed her head, then turned back to glance at Yunyun, who was leisurely licking her paw in the corner. Her brows couldn’t help but knit together.
Why did it feel like she had somehow been toyed with by a cat?
Xu Yecheng sighed helplessly, then lifted her head to look at He Xiaohan. He Xiaohan was still wearing that gentle smile.
Xu Yecheng frowned, a hint of confusion appearing on her face. Yunyun slowly crawled out from under the table, and only then did He Xiaohan sit back down in his seat.
She glanced at Yunyun with a bit of dejection, and that small movement happened to be caught by He Xiaohan.
His gaze fell on her tightly pressed lips, and a slightly different glimmer passed through his eyes.
Xu Yecheng gathered herself, then turned and walked downstairs.
Seriously, this was so embarrassing. How did she suddenly bump her head, and right under this guy’s gaze of all people?
She’d completely lost face.
Xu Yecheng’s cheeks were still a little red, and waves of pain continued to throb from her head.
When Xu Yecheng went downstairs, Doudou happened to be coming up from below. Seeing Xu Yecheng rubbing her head while walking down with a flushed face, Doudou immediately looked puzzled.
He Xiaohan had just gone upstairs, and now Ningning was coming down with a red face.
With her keen sense of smell, Doudou felt that something must have happened.
But there was too little information for her to piece together anything.
Xu Yecheng walked over to the front counter downstairs. The girl at the counter had just put out a cup of coffee. Xu Yecheng’s gaze landed on the order number. Seeing the conspicuous “12,” her mood instantly darkened a little.
Damn it… She had just done something stupid in front of that guy, and now she still had to bring him his order.
In her heart, Xu Yecheng really wanted to refuse.
It’s all for work……
She hypnotized herself internally.
When she carried the tray over and slowly walked up to He Xiaohan, he lifted his eyes to look at her. After watching her place the coffee in front of him, he finally spoke.
“Do you have a moment to listen to me?”
Xu Yecheng blinked, and when her gaze fell on his face, she felt a bit awkward again.
“What is it?” she asked softly.
“Our school has a club that needs people to try on outfits. One hour, two hundred yuan. Want to think about it?” As He Xiaohan spoke, he stirred the coffee with a spoon.
Xu Yecheng was taken aback.
Two hundred an hour—what kind of top-tier pay was that?
Her expression couldn’t help but turn a little excited.
“You want me to go?”
He Xiaohan nodded, his expression still as gentle as ever. “They have requirements for looks and figure,” he said, lifting the coffee and taking a sip. “And I think, with your conditions, you can completely meet their standards.”
“After all, in my opinion, Miss Wanning’s looks are in no way inferior to other girls.”
His voice was steady and soft, but when he said the last sentence, it carried a bit more depth and magnetism.
Xu Yecheng felt a little awkward inside, and also somewhat embarrassed.
What did he mean by that? Saying she had some looks to her?
For some reason, being praised by this guy felt kind of strange.
“Thank you,” Xu Yecheng replied politely. “Then what would I need to do?”
Her reaction surprised He Xiaohan a little.
Was she indifferent to his praise…?
“Trying on clothes, photography. The person in charge is a friend of mine,” He Xiaohan said. “Could I get your contact information? There are some details I still need to explain.”
“Sure,” Xu Yecheng agreed, without thinking too much about it.
It was just wearing women’s clothes. It wasn’t her first time anyway. Two hundred an hour—only an idiot would pass that up.
Xu Yecheng took her phone out of her pocket. He Xiaohan’s gaze lingered briefly on her phone screen before he took out his own phone and added her contact.
Xu Yecheng felt a bit oddly pleased.
Could this guy be using work as an excuse to get closer to her?
But hadn’t he seemed not very interested in her before? Why was he suddenly主动 asking for her contact now?
Or maybe it really was just for work.
After the previous awkward incident, Xu Yecheng felt it was better not to jump to conclusions.
“Then I’ll contact you later,” He Xiaohan said, putting his phone away. “You can get back to work.”
“Mm,” Xu Yecheng replied calmly.
Watching her back as she left, He Xiaohan faintly felt that this girl really did seem a bit different from others.
He Xiaohan lowered his head and opened his chat with Doudou. His eyes stopped on one particular message:
“Ningning told me she likes you.”
“But she thinks you’re not interested in her, and she seems a bit down.”
His gaze lingered on those words for a moment.
She likes him?
He Xiaohan couldn’t really feel it. Instead, he felt that Wanning seemed somewhat resistant toward him.
“What’s Wanning’s family situation like?” He Xiaohan asked.
Xu Yecheng had just come downstairs when she saw Doudou standing at the bottom of the stairs waiting for her.
Xu Yecheng walked over to Doudou’s side and, seeing her unhappy expression, asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”
Doudou looked utterly aggrieved.
“Ningning, my relative is here,” she said gloomily.
Xu Yecheng froze for a moment, her expression immediately turning awkward.
“Uh…” She was just about to say something like “drink more hot water,” but quickly realized how terribly straight-man-like that sounded.
“Does it hurt a lot?” she changed her wording.
“It’s okay for now,” Doudou answered honestly. Then she hooked her arm around Xu Yecheng’s and said with a miserable face, “Why couldn’t it come tomorrow, waaah. I was even planning to eat mala xiangguo tonight.”
Xu Yecheng wanted to laugh a little, but thinking about it carefully, Doudou really was quite pitiful…
After all, the discomfort of menstruation was something she, as a man, couldn’t understand.
“It’s fine,” Xu Yecheng comforted her. “You can eat it after it’s over.”
Doudou’s eyes welled up. “But I really want to eat it. I’ve already picked out the restaurant.”
Xu Yecheng’s expression suddenly became a bit troubled.
“Then… maybe just eat a little?” she suggested hesitantly.
“It’ll hurt like hell,” Doudou sighed helplessly. “Last time I couldn’t resist and ate some, and that night the pain was out of this world.”
Xu Yecheng couldn’t help but laugh.
Out of this world—what an amazing way to put it.
Xu Yecheng felt a bit fortunate.
Good thing she was a man and didn’t have to deal with this kind of thing.
“So pitiful. Then let’s wait until it’s completely over,” Xu Yecheng said helplessly.
Seeing the way Xu Yecheng had laughed just now, Doudou immediately became gloomy.
“Ningning, when is your period?” A smile suddenly appeared on her face.
“Huh?”
How would she know something like that? She didn’t even get periods.
