Chapter 1513: He Seems to Be Jealous

~7 min read 1,351 words

Xu Xiaoxiao saw through what Liu Qingze was planning.

However, she did not approve of Liu Qingze's words: "Even if it is effective, that is only an auxiliary method; you still need to learn to relax yourself."

Relax myself...

At this moment, Liu Qingze was not as tense, and he was no longer resistant to the idea of relaxing.

He thought for a moment, then said: "I haven't played ball in a long time; I can ask a friend to go to the basketball court for a game!"

"Very good, this line of thinking is correct!"

Upon receiving praise, Liu Qingze rubbed the back of his head and said rather bashfully: "This is just a small matter."

"But it is precisely such small matters that you couldn't do before, which shows how tense you were; your sister is also observant, having noticed your abnormality early on."

Mentioning Liu Xin'ai, Liu Qingze couldn't help but sigh, then muttered: "I still ended up making my sister worry."

"Isn't that normal? Don't you also worry about your sister? Between family members, there is always endless worrying."

Heh, that's true.

Liu Qingze discovered that being with Xu Xiaoxiao was truly relaxing.

Problems that were originally tangled, after chatting with her, would be viewed differently.

This made Liu Qingze unable to help but exclaim: "You really are an excellent psychologist."

"That goes without saying; if you have any problems, you can come find me anytime!"

After saying this, Xu Xiaoxiao felt it was inappropriate and changed her words: "Forget it, let's have fewer problems."

Liu Qingze, however, had no such taboos; he said: "The greater the pressure, the more problems there will be; discover them early and solve them quickly, then there is nothing to fear."

"Oh my, your awareness is quite good."

"Hehe, that's because I have you, a good teacher and helpful friend. This treatment method of yours is good; if you promote it vigorously, it will definitely be able to help more people!"

Patting the machine with her small hand,

Xu Xiaoxiao said: "There is still a long way to go before promotion; counting you, you are only the second one in my data."

Hmm...

Did Liu Qingze misunderstand?

He raised an eyebrow and asked: "What do you mean, I am only the second one?"

"It means you are the second person to use this therapy."

Alright, Liu Qingze didn't misunderstand!

He really was a test subject!

But then, he comforted himself: "At least I'm not the first guinea pig."

First, second, is there any difference?

In Xu Xiaoxiao's view, there was no difference.

At most, she would control the electrical charge well to reduce the chance of pain appearing.

Xu Xiaoxiao checked the time and urged: "Alright, go get busy; remember, don't forget to arrange time to play ball."

"Rest assured, I won't forget!"

Liu Qingze was prepared to leave after saying this.

But at this moment, someone pushed open the door.

That person didn't speak, nor did he come in; he just stood at the doorway, coldly sizing up the two people inside.

Liu Qingze felt the other party's behavior was very strange, and his gaze even stranger.

He nudged Xu Xiaoxiao with his elbow and asked: "Who is this person?"

Before Xu Xiaoxiao could speak, Wang Sinian narrowed his eyes and also asked: "Xiaoxiao, aren't you going to introduce us?"

Xu Xiaoxiao was somewhat surprised by Wang Sinian's appearance.

And... what was with that look in his eyes!?

Considering Liu Qingze was still there, Xu Xiaoxiao suppressed her feeling of annoyance.

After silently rolling her eyes at Wang Sinian, she introduced them concisely: "This is Liu Qingze, my good friend, Liu Xin'ai's younger brother; this is Wang Sinian, my assistant."

Wang Sinian shook his head and said with dissatisfaction: "That introduction is too simple."

"Then

how else do you want me to introduce you?!"

"At the very least, you should mention that I am your experimental subject."

Liu Qingze had been listening silently.

Upon hearing this, he immediately revealed a look of sympathy.

And said: "So you are the first guinea... experimental subject! Does it hurt? I feel a bit of a tingling sensation."

Liu Qingze was just purely wanting to exchange experiences.

Who knew Wang Sinian's expression would change.

He even looked at Xu Xiaoxiao and questioned: "Are you not planning to treat me anymore?"

Hmm...

Was it Xu Xiaoxiao's illusion, why did she feel...

There was a component of accusation in Wang Sinian's voice?

This was truly strange!

Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head and didn't continue thinking about it.

Seeing this action, Wang Sinian lost his temper: "You really aren't planning to treat me anymore!"

Seeing this guy misunderstand her meaning, Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly said: "Since I agreed to treat you, I won't give up halfway!"

"Then what is going on with him?"

"Just a younger brother who needs some help, that's all."

A younger brother...

Wang Sinian didn't know what had gotten into him, and he blurted out sarcastically: "You two, 'sister' and 'brother,' sure sound intimate!"

His snide, mocking attitude infuriated Xu Xiaoxiao, and she retorted: "How I address him is none of your business; are you looking for trouble again!?"

Seeing that Xu Xiaoxiao was genuinely angry, Liu Qingze asked: "Sister Xiao Xiao, does he always give you a hard time?"

Hmph, you bet he does!

And he's an ungrateful wretch, too!

She had already been good enough to him, yet he still always came to bring her bad luck!

Xu Xiaoxiao muttered to herself in her heart.

But to avoid dragging Liu Qingze into the mess, she could only say against her better judgment: "He's just like that—has a foul mouth and treats everyone this way."

Xu Xiaoxiao was trying to smooth things over.

But she didn't know that her assessment really bothered Wang Sinian!

And it made him very unhappy, too!!

He retorted quite rudely: "Go ask the other colleagues what they think of me, and then tell me if I treat everyone like that!"

He also retorted quite unceremoniously: "Go ask other colleagues what their evaluation of me is, and then come back and tell me if I am like this to everyone!"

It was nothing but a provocation!

And a provocation that didn't even take Xu Xiaoxiao seriously!

How could Xu Xiaoxiao put up with this?

She immediately shouted at him: "Wang Sinian, don't you have anything else to do?!"

"I do! I'll leave as soon as I finish delivering your coffee!"

Wang Sinian slammed the coffee down on the table.

And then he really just walked away like that!

Liu Qingze blinked, then looked at the cup of coffee, thinking to himself that after saying so many harsh words, he had just come to deliver coffee?

That really was talking the toughest talk while doing the most cowardly thing!

This is truly saying the harshest words while doing the most cowardly things!

Liu Qingze looked at Xu Xiaoxiao and muttered: "Why does it feel like that guy is jealous?"

"He clearly ate gunpowder!"

Xu Xiaoxiao looked displeased, and she even raised her hand and tossed the coffee into the trash can!

Xu Xiaoxiao's outburst gave Liu Qingze a start.

He could see that Xu Xiaoxiao was truly angry.

To support Xu Xiaoxiao, Liu Qingze made a promise: "If anyone bullies you, tell me, and I'll help you teach him a lesson!"

"Alright, just worry about your own affairs first; whether you can get your sister to Qin Yiyan's side depends entirely on your performance!"

Xu Xiaoxiao's words made Liu Qingze instantly feel the burden on his shoulders grow heavier.

He took a deep breath and promised Xu Xiaoxiao: "Don't worry, I will definitely not fail the mission!"

After seeing Liu Qingze off, Xu Xiaoxiao busied herself with some other things before returning to the office.

But as soon as she returned to her seat, colleagues gathered around her.

They even said: "We don't know what's wrong with Xiao Wang, why don't you go ask him?"

She also said: "Xiao Wang doesn't know what happened either, why don't you go ask?"
