Chapter 426: Are You Not Loving Me Anymore?

Cai Xiaotang saw through what Li Xiao was thinking at a glance, and instantly refused without a second thought: "If you want to see it, go see it yourself. I'm staying with Baobao today, and I'm not going anywhere!"

Upon hearing this, Li Beijue's brow twitched violently.

Sticking together all day?

How could that be!

He quickly gave Li Xiao a look, signaling him to hurry up and pull Cai Xiaotang away.

Li Xiao held back a laugh and invited her again: "It's rare that we're here, can't you accompany me to take a look? We haven't really been out on a date for a while now..."

Once he had said it to this extent, Jiang Baobao also realized what was happening. Seeing that he wanted some time alone as a couple, she hurriedly urged: "Xiao Tang, you should just go. We can meet up again in a little while..."

"But..."

Cai Xiaotang glared at Li Xiao with a face full of annoyance, wanting to retort, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Did Baobao really not understand!

This guy wanted to get her out of the way to create an opportunity for her and Li Beijue!

Cai Xiaotang quickly pondered what excuse to use to refuse, but the next second, she suddenly saw Li Xiao put on a look of dejection.

Cai Xiaotang's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition instantly welled up.

Sure enough, she then heard that person say in a heavy tone: "I know, you just don't love me anymore... I agreed to accompany you here, and now you aren't even willing to accompany me for a stroll, so what is the point of me coming here today..."

He spoke with such sincerity and feeling, as if his heart had truly been broken.

Everyone was instantly dumbfounded.

Li Beijue was rarely full of surprise, unable to believe no matter what that these words had actually come out of Li Xiao's mouth.

Jiang Baobao was holding back laughter, her eyes unable to help but dart back and forth between Li Xiao and Cai Xiaotang; she was practically about to suffer internal injuries from holding it in.

What was going on with this married couple?

Were the words "you don't love me anymore" some kind of catchphrase for them that served as a form of flirtation?

Cai Xiaotang was even more speechless.

She never expected that the tactic she had used before would be copied and used on her today!

"You... you..."

She pointed at Li Xiao, her cheeks puffed up in anger, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

After a long pause, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and agree: "Fine! I'll go with you! Let's go and come back quickly! We'll come back as soon as we're done looking!"

"Good, I knew my dear still cared about my thoughts." Li Xiao smiled with satisfaction.

"You two hurry up and go!"

"Let's go."

Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue were both instantly struck with goosebumps by the two's forms of address, and they spoke almost simultaneously, rarely being in such agreement.

Cai Xiaotang immediately turned and walked in the opposite direction.

Li Xiao raised an eyebrow at Li Beijue without changing his expression, then followed quickly.

Not until they had walked quite a distance did he block Cai Xiaotang's path, and with a laugh, he urged: "Why are you walking so fast? Aren't you afraid of pulling your wound?"

"What does that have to do with you! Aren't you going to see the Large Animal Pavilion! Hurry up and go see it! I have to go back after looking! Don't bother me with all that nonsense! Do you think I don't know what you're trying to do?"

As Cai Xiaotang spoke, she continued to stride forward.

Li Xiao raised an eyebrow, wanting to say something, but the words reached his lips and he swallowed them back down.

The two walked forward one after the other like this, and ten minutes later—

Cai Xiaotang suddenly stopped in irritation.

"Is there even a Large Animal Pavilion? You aren't playing me, are you?"

She glared at Li Xiao in annoyance, feeling as though she had already walked across more than half the venue.

Only then could Li Xiao finally not help but hold back a laugh as he said: "Of course not, it's just... you're walking the wrong way, but if you keep walking along here, you can still get there, it's just a big detour..."

"You!" Cai Xiaotang felt another breath of air get stuck in her chest; she was so angry she was speechless, and could only loudly retort: "Why didn't you remind me just now! You just watched me walk in circles like a fool?"

Li Xiao looked innocent: "Didn't you tell me not to say any nonsense? I saw you were angry, so I didn't say much..."

Cai Xiaotang: "..."

She didn't want to talk anymore.

Seeing a signpost ahead, she hurriedly walked over and glanced at it twice, finally confirming the direction of the Large Animal Pavilion, though the anger in her heart had not dissipated in the slightest.

Yet Li Xiao deliberately leaned in and asked: "You said just now... you knew what I wanted to do, so what is it that I want to do?"

"You know it in your own heart!" Cai Xiaotang gave him a dirty look upon hearing this.

Li Xiao held back a laugh and continued to play dumb: "What do I know? I don't know anything..."

"Hmph." Cai Xiaotang snorted coldly: "Isn't it just that you wanted to create space for the two of them? I saw through it a long time ago, what are you playing the idiot for now!"

Li Xiao chuckled and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

She wasn't stupid, after all...

He shook his head with amusement in his heart, and looking at her annoyed expression, he couldn't help but feel the urge to tease her again, deliberately pretending to be nonchalant: "What happens with those two, what does that have to do with me? Why don't you think about how I might want to create... an opportunity for you and me..."

Li Xiao deliberately lowered his voice, and slowed down his tone for the last few words.

Cai Xiaotang's footsteps came to an abrupt halt, her eyes instantly filled with disbelief.

"You? And me?"

She pointed at herself, then hurriedly waved her hand: "Then I advise you not to waste your effort. We signed a contract, it's impossible for me to have any interest in you. Please, whatever thoughts you have, you'd best keep them to yourself!"

After saying this, Cai Xiaotang coolly turned her head and continued walking forward.

Li Xiao followed behind her unhurriedly, the corners of his lips unable to help but curl into an arc.

The two took a long detour and finally found the Large Animal Pavilion.

Cai Xiaotang immediately walked in impatiently, intending to take a quick look and then go back to find Jiang Baobao.

But she never expected that as soon as she entered the door, her attention would be drawn by a dolphin in the large water tank in the center.

She saw that the dolphin was very friendly and was interacting with a child who was pressing against the glass.

"Wow..."

Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, and she walked over quickly.

The dolphin seemed to see someone walking over and immediately moved in her direction; seeing Cai Xiaotang standing outside the aquarium, it friendly nudged the glass with its nose.

Cai Xiaotang's eyes widened in instant surprise and delight.

"How is it? Isn't it very cute?"

Li Xiao stood by her side, smiling.

Remembering what had just happened, Cai Xiaotang felt angry; hearing this, she immediately shot him a cross look and deliberately retorted, "Of course, it's much cuter than you, anyway!"

"Then I should thank you; at least I still count as cute in your heart?" Li Xiao asked back with a smile.

Cai Xiaotang was instantly rendered speechless by him again, so she had to focus on interacting with the dolphin in front of her, too lazy to speak further, though in her heart she was complaining like a machine gun without stopping.

This guy is really too infuriating!

If she had known, she wouldn't have agreed to let him come along!
