Chapter 137: Still Jealous

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“So what? He’s still a man. It doesn’t stop me from being jealous.”

His unreasonable tone made Lu Haiqiao not know whether to laugh or cry.

How could anyone say the word “jealous” so self-righteously?

Feeling resigned, Lu Haiqiao took his rolled-up sleeve and shook it in a fawning manner. “Although they’re also men, they’re only cousins. You’re different. You’re my favorite. You’re unique. No one can compare to you.”

That should do the trick, right?

Lu Haiqiao observed Xie Xuan’s expression without blinking. Unexpectedly, his

cold expression didn’t soften at all.

Still no?

While she was in a daze, Xie Xuan said. “Just your favorite?”

Lu Haiqiao was speechless.

Why did he care about the wording so much?

Lu Haiqiao chuckled. “What do you mean by ‘just’? You’re my favorite person on earth!”

Xie Xuan didn’t reply, but his expression clearly relaxed.

Seizing the opportunity, Lu Haiqiao tiptoed and was about to peck his cheek when Xie Xuan happened to turn around.

She lost her balance, fell forward, and kissed him on the lips.

Xie Xuan took advantage of the situation and held her waist, turning this unexpected kiss into a passionate one.

His kiss was a little aggressive, and the force from above forced Lu Haiqiao to raise her head.

When Xie Xuan let go, Lu Haiqiao’s face turned red, and she panted heavily. When she finally stabilized her breathing and heartbeat, she moved her neck to ease some of the discomfort.

Xie San spoke in his usual cold voice. “Master, here’s the ice Americano you ordered.”

Lu Haiqiao was speechless.

Although it was a VIP venue, people would still pass by.

Compared to Lu Haiqiao’s embarrassment, Xie Xuan waved his hand without changing his expression. “Leave it there.”

Xie San left the venue after placing two glasses of iced Americano on the table in the resting area.

Lu Haiqiao picked up one of the glasses to take a sip. When the blush on her cheeks faded, she challenged Xie Xuan, “Why don’t we have a game?”

She had always wanted to find an opportunity to compete with him.

Hearing this, Xie Xuan looked at her confident eyes with interest. “How do you want to do it?”

“Best of five,” Lu Haiqiao said. “If the game comes to a draw, we’ll have another round. The winner will be the one closer to the bullseye.”

Xie Xuan nodded. “Alright.”

In the next hour, Lu Haiqiao and Xie Xuan each shot fifteen arrows.

Every one of them was in the ten-point circle.

According to what they had agreed on previously, the winner would be decided by an additional match.

Lu Haiqiao thought that she would definitely lose, but the outcome was very surprising.

Her arrow was closer to the bull’s eye than Xie Xuan’s, and she won by a very slight margin.

Putting down his bow, Lu Haiqiao stared at the results on the display in disbelief. “You let me win?

Xie Xuan looked at her beautiful side profile with admiration in his eyes. “No matter who the opponent is, as long as it’s a competition, I won’t give in. This is respect for myself and my opponent.”

This was the truth.

He was distracted for a moment just now because his gaze had been glued to Lu Haiqiao.

She was his little marshmallow.

She was gentle, obedient, confident, and charming.

The more he looked at her, the more he was in love with her.

Lu Haiqiao smiled. “So I won?”

Xie Xuan patted the back of her head gently. “I definitely won’t lose to you next time..”
