Corey felt a warm sensation on his lips and his eyes bulged wide open instantly.
Was she crazy?!
Ying Xiaoxiao left his lips after touching them gently. Then turned her head to look at the pampered woman, who was obviously shocked by what she had just done.
Ying Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and felt a little dispirited. She had thought that when the pampered woman saw her kissing Corey, she would have some reaction.
Yes, there was a reaction, but it was just dumbfoundedness and nothing else.
So boring!
Hence, she turned to look at Corey, only to find that he was looking at her with a heavy gaze.
She felt an inexplicable sense of guilt and coughed gently. “Don’t think too much. I didn’t kiss you because I like you.”
There seemed to be something surging in the bottom of his eyes because of what she had said, but it disappeared quickly.
Corey said calmly, “I didn’t think too much.”
Ying Xiaoxiao frowned. After saying that he had not thought too much, why did it felt like she had just exposed herself?
“That’ll be best.” She narrowed her eyes and sneered. “How dare you mess with me! You’ll have to bear the consequences.”
Looking at her unhappy expression, Corey frowned. “Actually… ”
Just when he was about to explain, he suddenly saw the pampered woman pick up a wine glass and get ready to throw it at Ying Xiaoxiao. His face suddenly fell, and he subconsciously pulled Ying Xiaoxiao into his arms.
Ying Xiaoxiao let out a low gasp and was pulled into his tight embrace with a blank face.
In the next second, she heard the sound of the glass breaking against the floor and… his muffled groan.
She looked up and saw his brows deeply furrowed in great pain.
She seemed to have understood something, and an indescribable emotion slowly welled up in her heart. She felt happy but also reluctant.
The pampered woman’s angry voice traveled into Corey’s ears. “Corey, how dare you protect her! Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell your elder brother?”
Hearing this, Corey burst out laughing. Ying Xiaoxiao could feel the vibrations in his chest. She lifted her head and went into a slight daze as she looked at his face that was increasingly handsome due to his smile.
Perhaps he had noticed that she was looking at him as he lowered his eyes and looked into her clean but slightly unfocused gaze. He raised his brows slightly and a hint of interest surfaced in his eyes.
“Why? Have you suddenly realized that I’m really handsome?”
His deliberately lowered voice sounded in Ying Xiaoxiao’s ears, and she immediately came back to her senses. She could sense the ridicule in his words and rolled her eyes bluntly. She snorted and said disdainfully, “Don’t flatter yourself.”
Corey smiled and did not say anything else.
He let go of her, then stood up and turned to face the huffing and puffing pampered woman.
The pampered woman was no longer as shy as she had been at the beginning. Her carefully-painted face had been fine to look at initially, but now that she was so angry, her eyes and nose were blown out of proportion. Her eyes had already been big, but now as she stared at him, they seemed as large as a cow’s eyes. It was extremely terrifying.
Corey could not help but criticize in his heart. If Big Brother was going to pick a blind date for him, he should have at least chosen someone good-looking!
The pampered woman shouted, “Corey, that b*tch only kissed you and you’re already so protective of her. If she sleeps with you, will you then give her your life?”
