“So, you tore up the check?” Corey put the cup of water on the coffee table and looked slightly surprised at Ying Xiaoxiao who was sitting opposite.
Ying Xiaoxiao nodded, “Of course.”
Corey touched his nose, “I’m just sorry about the million.”
What?
Ying Xiaoxiao’s eyebrows lightly lifted, “Corey, why do you pity that million?”
“Since people have sent money to us, let’s take it, for nothing anyway.” Corey was thinking that receiving money, and leaving Morphy are two different things, how can we not take this money that was sent to us for nothing?
“Corey!” Ying Xiaoxiao grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it at him, saying indignantly, “Yayoi is a woman with a backbone!”
Corey easily caught the pillow and said with a smile, “Well, I’m just kidding, why are you so excited about it.”
Ying Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, her eyes narrowed, “Corey, if one day my dad also takes a million to make you leave me, you shouldn’t really just compromise, right?”
“I’m also a very spirited person.” Corey sat up straight and looked at her in a serious and earnest manner.
“You’d better be.”
Corey skimmed his lips and didn’t continue on this topic, but changed the topic and said, “I don’t think that Xu Wenjing will give up so easily, Morphy and Yayoi’s life might not be peaceful.”
Ying Xiaoxiao bit her lip and thought for a while, then asked, “Can’t your brother help them? Didn’t you say that Master Shen would listen to your brother?”
“Well, it’s true that my grandfather will listen to my brother’s words. But…” Corey paused, “the only thing is this, my grandfather might not listen to my brother.”
“Damn, just that stubborn?”
Corey frowned, “Ying Xiaoxiao, the next time I hear you use foul language, you’ll be miserable.”
“What? Is it any wonder you want to hit me?” Ying Xiaoxiao didn’t take his warning seriously at all.
In her opinion, it didn’t matter for a girl to speak foul language once in a while, and she really didn’t understand why he kept restricting her from not speaking foul language, what an old-fashioned man.
“No, I won’t hit you.” Corey’s lips curved up with a wry smile, then got up and walked to her side to sit down.
Something was wrong!
Ying Xiaoxiao subconsciously wanted to get up and sit somewhere else, but unexpectedly, he grabbed her waist, she turned her head to look at him, and before she could react, she only felt a darkness in front of her eyes, a heat on her lips, and he kissed her.
Corey embraced her with one hand and gently fondled her soft hair with the other, whispering, “Later, once you say foul words, I’ll kiss you.”
His voice with a deadly sensuality, Ying Xiaoxiao’s heart trembled and whispered, “You’re good. Ok?”
Corey heard and laughed out lowly, “Well, I’m really good, how else could I have such an excellent girlfriend like you.”
Upon hearing that, Ying Xiaoxiao fiercely pushed him away, her big beautiful eyes narrowed, “You compliment me today, did you do something wrong to me?”
Faced with her sudden questioning, Corey was a bit confused, “What are you thinking about all day?”
Corey was helpless, just now the atmosphere was good, and all of a sudden she was ruining it, sometimes he really admired her.
Ying Xiaoxiao is also clear that she is being purely unreasonable, but how can she, who loves to save face, admit it, and can only ask with a hard scalp, “Then why did you suddenly compliment me? You used to be so mean to me.”
But he had also called her a witch.
Corey was extremely helpless, but still patiently explained, “Please, were you my girlfriend before? No way, we usually don’t have anything nice to say when we meet, and it’s normal to undermine you. But now that you’re my girlfriend, it’s normal for me to compliment my own girlfriend”
Looking at his particularly sincere face, Ying Xiaoxiao invariably felt that she was really making too much fuss, and she tugged at the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, “So that’s it, it seems that I misunderstood you.”
“Just a simple misunderstanding and that’s it?”Corey’s eyebrows rose, looking at her with a smile.
“Or what?” Did he want her to apologize?
Corey reached out and grabbed her into his arms again, lowering his head to kiss her.
And just as the four lips were about to meet, a sudden ringing of the doorbell startled them both.
“Who is it?” In the meantime, Ying Xiaoxiao’s eyebrows rose and she looked towards the entrance.
Corey shook his head, “I don’t know.”
Then, he got up and went to open the door, and as soon as the door opened, before he had a chance to see who was coming, the person jumped right into his arms.
“Brother Corey, I’m back.”
The rather familiar voice made Corey’s scalp go numb, god, how could it be her?
It’s true, the person who came was Halle who lived opposite him.
After she took a picture of him with her cell phone and gave it to Xiaoxiao, she ran away and couldn’t be reached.
Halle took a deep breath in his chest, a contented smile on her face, sure enough Brother Corey smelled the best.
“What are you doing here?” Corey pushed her away, his tone distant and indifferent.
His attitude towards her was completely changed, which caused Halle to be stunned, then carefully asked, “Brother Corey, are you angry that I privately took your phone?”
Corey’s eyes were cold as he looked at her, his thin lips pursed into a straight line, and his displeasure could be clearly seen.
In fact, it was also because of the private automatic his cell phone, she ran away to travel, originally thought that after some time, he would not be so angry, but now it seemed that she was thinking too simply.
But now, how should she explain?
Halle bit her lip and pondered seriously, then her face was piled with a sweet smile and said, “Brother Corey, I didn’t mean to touch your phone, I’m helping you try to see if Sister Xiaoxiao trusts you enough…”
“Oh?” Corey raised his eyebrows, “In that case, do I still have to thank you?”
Halle saw the mockery in his eyes, and the smile on her face instantly became a bit forced, “Thank you won’t be necessary.”
In the end, she closed her eyes, bit her teeth, and bent her waist ninety degrees towards him, “I’m sorry, Brother Corey, I shouldn’t have touched your phone, and I shouldn’t have sent that kind of picture to Sister Xiaoxiao.”
“Is it too late to apologize now?”
In the meantime, Halle’s eyebrows rose, and she slowly raised her head, only to see Ying Xiaoxiao looking at her with hands clasped in front of her chest.
