"Muxue, you've got to teach her a good lesson," Xue Rui shouted at Gu Muxue's retreating back, clutching his own in pain.
Of course, the pain was faked.
He had just exposed one of Gu Muxue's little secrets, which was bound to make her furious. Pretending to be in more pain would help her feel a bit more vindicated.
However, this scene made Lin Ruoxi's heart ache.
She thought Gu Muxue was terrifying. She'd hit Xue Rui and then dragged Chen Tingting away.
On the way back to Lin Ruoxi's house.
"Does... does it hurt?" Lin Ruoxi reached out, wanting to touch Xue Rui's back, but hesitated and pulled her hand back.
"It doesn't hurt," Xue Rui said with a smile.
He was wearing thick winter clothes, and she had only hit his back. Xue Rui just felt a tingling numbness; there was no pain at all.
'She's worried about such a simple, common-sense thing?' Xue Rui thought.
"Why did she hit you?" Lin Ruoxi asked in a small voice.
