"Caught in the act," Tong Xi looked at him in embarrassment, her face so red it seemed it might drip blood. "What are you talking about? I just noticed someone's eyelashes are too thick and long!"
She had wanted to secretly kiss him, but how could she admit to such a thing? Especially now, if she said out loud her inner thoughts and Tan Qing got scared, what if they couldn't be friends anymore? What if he started avoiding her even more?
She never realized she could be so timid, afraid of losing, and thus not daring to step forward.
"Really not?" Seeing her face so red, Tan Qing couldn't bear to tease her any more. "Alright, I'm messing with you. I know I'm not your type."
Tong Xi felt even more frustrated. How could he not be? He was exactly her type, the one she dreamed about. If she weren't afraid of scaring him, she'd want to peel him and devour him right now.
This sudden thought made Tong Xi's heart race, her face turning even redder.
