Chapter 2244: I Am Just a Passerby in Your Life

~8 min read 1,418 words

Jiang Mobai did not want to endure it any longer.

He...

was going to express his feelings to Su Kexuan!

Jiang Mobai sat up abruptly.

But before he could speak, he first saw a shadow flying rapidly toward his face.

Then, a soccer ball spun and smashed into Jiang Mobai's face!

With a "bang," Jiang Mobai's head jerked backward.

The soccer ball paused briefly before dropping gently to the ground.

The soccer ball on the ground kept bouncing.

And Jiang Mobai's nose turned bright red...

It hurt!

It really hurt like hell...

And besides the pain, Jiang Mobai's nose felt very sore, and tears fell uncontrollably.

Once he could speak, he stood up and roared: "Who is it!?"

Soon, two little boys under the age of ten ran over.

The children were very nervous.

But they still bravely admitted their mistake: "Sorry, big brother, we thought there was no one here."

Jiang Mobai just wanted to say, how could they not see a person as big as him.

But thinking about it, he had been lying down, and it was empty here, so it was understandable that they didn't see him while playing excitedly...

Jiang Mobai slowly calmed down.

In the end, he could only accept his bad luck.

Su Kexuan took a bottle of iced drink and had him use it as a cold compress on his nose.

Then she said to the children: "Go play somewhere else."

"Oh."

The children looked timidly at the slightly fierce-looking Jiang Mobai again and said: "Big brother, the ball."

It turned out the children's soccer ball was stuck in a crack in the stone behind Jiang Mobai.

Jiang Mobai used his toe to gently hook the ball out, then arched his instep, and the soccer ball seemed to grow wings, following his control.

After juggling it a few times, Jiang Mobai kicked it, and the soccer ball traced a parabola, landing at the feet of the two children.

The children were stunned.

When they came back to their senses, where was the fear from just a moment ago?

?

It couldn't be more intense!

"Big brother, you're so amazing!"

Jiang Mobai said a bit smugly: "Of course I'm amazing, I used to be on the school soccer team!"

"Then can you play with us?"

Jiang Mobai wanted to refuse.

He came here to go on a date with Su Kexuan.

Not to play with little kids.

But Su Kexuan spoke up to persuade Jiang Mobai: "Go ahead, let me also get a glimpse of your soccer style."

"Well... alright, but don't you go falling for me!"

Jiang Mobai had a cocky expression.

But when he started playing soccer seriously, he was quite handsome.

With those nimble movements and a body full of strength, who could tell that his legs had once had problems?

Su Kexuan sat there quietly watching.

She was happy for him.

And also feeling a faint melancholy.

After playing for a while, the two boys' family came looking for them.

The person who came was an older sister who locked onto her target and shouted in a loud voice: "You didn't even say a word when you ran over here to play, making us look everywhere for you!"

Hearing the familiar voice, the two children turned their heads.

Jiang Mobai also stopped his movements and looked up.

The older sister had originally been full of impatience because the children were running around.

However, when she saw Jiang Mobai's handsome and clean face...

She felt the whole world light up!

In this instant, the older sister was no longer irritable, but instead became very demure.

At the same time, she felt it was such a pity in her heart.

If she weren't already married with children, she would definitely go and hit on this handsome guy!

But then she thought, if she couldn't, didn't she have a younger sister at home?

Having this handsome guy as a brother-in-law wouldn't be bad!

The older sister calculated in her heart, then used a gentle tone to ask the two boys what was going on.

The boys told her the whole story.

This also includes the matter of smashing someone's nose.

Jiang Mobai

's nose was no longer that red.

The tip of his nose only had a slight, delicate pinkish hue, as if it had been brushed with a layer of blush.

It made him look even more bashful!

The older sister silently marveled in her heart, then said, "I'm truly sorry, the two children are like mud monkeys; they never have a quiet moment."

"They're all like this at this age, it's no trouble at all."

"Oh, you have such a good temper. Tell me... do you have a girlfriend? If not, I can introduce one to you! She's fair-skinned, beautiful, and has long legs, and she's even a great cook!"

Jiang Mobai hadn't expected the other party to have such an intention, and he was startled for a moment.

Afterwards, he said calmly and firmly, "No need, I already have someone I like."

As his words fell, Jiang Mobai looked in the direction of Su Kexuan.

The older sister followed his gaze and looked over as well.

She saw a young woman sitting lazily on a picnic mat.

Although the picnic mat was only worth a few dozen yuan.

She still managed to make it look like a hand-woven Persian rug.

Discovering that the older sister was looking over, she even returned a faint smile.

In this instant, the older sister felt the world brighten once again...

What is meant by a talented man and a beautiful woman?

This is it!

The older sister didn't have the heart to bring up introducing a girlfriend again, and instead said sincerely, "Then I wish for you two lovers to eventually become a married couple!"

"Thank you."

"Oh, it is we who should thank you. If you hadn't been playing with them, we wouldn't have been able to eat so peacefully. By the way, these are chicken legs we just grilled; if you don't mind, please stay and eat some!"

The older sister had originally brought the chicken legs out because she was afraid the two children would be hungry.

Now, it was perfect to give them to Jiang Mobai.

Jiang Mobai smiled: "Then I won't stand on ceremony."

As he spoke, he reached out his hand.

The older sister looked at those clearly defined knuckles and thought to herself, they are both hands, so why are his

so good-looking?

Looking back at the two mud monkeys behind Jiang Mobai, whose faces and bodies were covered in grass clippings...

The older sister's expression darkened: "Hurry up and come back with me!"

"Oh."

The children waved reluctantly at Jiang Mobai, then followed the older sister away.

Jiang Mobai then leaned over and sat beside Su Kexuan, shaking the large chicken leg showily: "Look, my labor reward, I'll share one with you!"

Su Kexuan was also hungry.

She took the chicken leg and took a bite.

Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, it was truly delicious!

Su Kexuan squinted slightly, eating with enjoyment.

Taking advantage of the gap between bites of the chicken leg, she commented: "You played quite to your heart's content today."

"Mm, I haven't played soccer in a long time, my technique is a bit rusty, but it's still enough to fool the kids."

"It's more than just enough; I feel like you've planted a seed full of light in the depths of their hearts."

Su Kexuan's evaluation made Jiang Mobai feel flattered.

After hesitating for a moment, he gathered his courage and asked a question: "Then, have I ever planted a seed in your heart?"

"You have."

The affirmative answer made Jiang Mobai's heartbeat faster and faster.

He felt it was time to ask that question!

Jiang Mobai closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, he said: "You..."

"Next week, I'm moving back."

Su Kexuan spoke first to announce her decision.

And her decision made Jiang Mobai's expression stiffen.

His heart, which had been surging just a moment ago, instantly turned cold.

Jiang Mobai tried to use a calm voice to ask Su Kexuan: "Why are you moving away?"

Su Kexuan lifted her face slightly and said nonchalantly: "You have already passed the test while with me, and it is time for me to leave your life."

"You don't need to leave! You can

stay forever!!"

"But I am just a passerby in your life."
