Chapter 765: Just Looking at You, I Like You

~7 min read 1,355 words

The two of them stared at each other with wide eyes.

Cai Xiaotang's heart was beating so fast it felt like it was about to jump out of her throat, yet she still maintained a facade of forced composure, suppressing her emotions, and simply followed his previous words, saying rapidly: "Can't you see I'm working! If you delay my time any further, I'm going to give you a bad review!"

As she spoke, the orange also slipped into her mouth, even sweeter than the apple from before.

Cai Xiaotang couldn't see it herself, but Li Xiao saw it clearly; her face had long since turned red.

"Fine, I won't disturb you."

As Li Xiao said this, he stood up decisively, but he didn't leave; instead, he turned and sat on the sofa to the side!

Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath, couldn't be bothered to pay him any mind, and turned her head back to continue working on the task at hand.

But not long after, she felt as if two "tangible" gazes were constantly fixed on her.

She knew who it was without even looking back, and the speed of Cai Xiaotang's typing gradually slowed down.

Li Xiao sat on the sofa with a leisurely expression, observing Cai Xiaotang calmly.

So this is what she looks like when she works; she looks quite serious...

Li Xiao's gaze swept over her body up and down who knows how many times, gradually taking on a different flavor, and then he couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself.

Clearly, in the past, when women had practically stripped naked and tried to climb into his arms, he could remain unmoved, but now...

He was actually feeling an unbearable itch in his heart for Cai Xiaotang, who was wearing short sleeves and shorts and was covered up completely?

Li Xiao raised an eyebrow, struggling to suppress the "impulse" to do something.

He had never imagined that one day, just looking at someone would require him to use all of his self-control.

"Click—"

Cai Xiaotang's hands stopped typing, and she stared at the screen with her lips tightly pursed.

After a long while—"Go to the living room; I'm not used to having someone nearby when I work."

Cai Xiaotang spoke as calmly as she could, while the restless little person inside her heart was already running wild.

Why does he keep staring at her!

How did this person suddenly become like a clingy pest!

"Haven't I been silent?"

Li Xiao's tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction, and after finishing, without waiting for Cai Xiaotang to speak, he deliberately teased: "Or is it that my sitting here has already affected you? Xiao Tang, you'll make me mistakenly believe... that I have great charm."

Li Xiao held back a laugh, waiting to see Cai Xiaotang's reaction.

Sure enough, Cai Xiaotang bristled almost immediately!

"Can you not be so narcissistic! I..."

As she spoke, she turned her head, but halfway through, her whole body suddenly stiffened, and the expression on her face became quite spectacular.

Damn...

My neck hurts!

That movement just now was too sudden and I twisted it!

"Why did you stop talking?"

Li Xiao had been listening in a good mood, but seeing Cai Xiaotang suddenly freeze and her expression look wrong, he hurriedly stood up.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Don't touch me!"

Seeing him reach out, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly stopped him.

She tried to move her head to the side, and sure enough, her neck was instantly pulled, making her frown in pain.

"I..."

Cai Xiaotang opened her mouth with difficulty: "My neck... seems to be... twisted..."

She gritted her teeth as she spoke, wishing she could disappear on the spot.

Could she be any more embarrassing!

How many more times does she have to make a fool of herself in front of Li Xiao!

First she bumped her head, then her clothes got caught in her hair, and now she's even twisted her neck!

A warm palm suddenly rested on her neck.

Cai Xiaotang instinctively went to raise her hand, but was held down by the shoulder by Li Xiao's quick-moving hand.

"Don't move."

Li Xiao said, tentatively massaging the spot she had just twisted.

"Hiss—"

Cai Xiaotang immediately gasped in pain.

Li Xiao suddenly felt both amused and helpless: "Can you stand up? This position isn't very convenient; the bed might be a bit better..."

"You... what are you doing!"

As soon as Cai Xiaotang heard the word "bed," her cheeks immediately burned up.

"Helping you massage it, what else would I be doing? Haven't I already been reduced to sleeping on the sofa?"

Li Xiao replied with a smile, and as he spoke, he carefully helped her up.

Cai Xiaotang pursed her lips, having no choice but to say nothing more, and obediently let herself be helped to the bed to sit down, with her back to Li Xiao, who was sitting on the edge of the bed.

"It might hurt a little, bear with it for a moment..."

Li Xiao tentatively applied some force and pressed down gently.

"Mm... ah..."

Cai Xiaotang let out a soft moan as expected.

Li Xiao's movements paused, and the expression on his face suddenly became somewhat unnatural.

"Ahem..."

He coughed lightly, forcibly suppressing the runaway thoughts in his mind, and massaged the spot she had just twisted, stroke by stroke; as his gaze inadvertently lowered, his eyes suddenly turned somewhat dangerous.

This position...

Was just right to see a little bit of what was revealed inside her collar...

The blood in his entire body seemed to boil, instantly burning through his whole frame.

"It seems a bit better..."

Cai Xiaotang suddenly spoke, pulling back Li Xiao's thoughts.

"Mm."

Li Xiao responded with an inscrutable expression, his other hand also coming up to gently knead Cai Xiaotang's shoulder.

"Eh..."

Cai Xiaotang was somewhat surprised.

"Try moving your neck a little now, it should be fine..."

Li Xiao said, slightly increasing the pressure: "I'll help you massage a bit while I'm at it; this is special treatment..."

Cai Xiaotang was slightly stunned, and tentatively moved a little; sure enough, it didn't hurt as much as it had just now.

Relying on the fact that Li Xiao could not see her face, Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Her heart was bubbling with sweetness, as if someone had sprinkled another handful of sugar on her, and she felt as if the entire night had been like a dream.

Li Xiao's technique was very professional.

Cai Xiaotang only felt that wherever he pressed, the bones there really relaxed quite a bit; it was simply no worse than the massage parlors outside, and she was almost about to fall asleep from the comfort.

Once her mind relaxed, her mouth seemed a bit hard to control.

"You're no nanny at all; you're simply like that kind of special..."

Cai Xiaotang muttered in a low voice, but halfway through her sentence, she suddenly reacted sharply.

What was she saying?

Why did she say whatever came to mind!

The movement on her shoulder suddenly stopped...

Cai Xiaotang keenly sensed a trace of dangerous aura.

"What were you trying to say just now?"

Li Xiao's voice was right by her ear, and the hot air from his speech ignited a small flame in Cai Xiaotang's heart.

"Nothing at all..."

Cai Xiaotang gave a dry laugh.

Li Xiao, however, was relentless; he simply pressed on her shoulders, "forcing" her to turn her head to look at him, and raised an eyebrow as he asked: "Were you just trying to say... that kind of special service..."

He deliberately paused for a moment, and seeing Cai Xiaotang's expression becoming increasingly unnatural, he then breathed out three words.

"Male—escort?"

"I didn't say that!"

Cai Xiaotang immediately retorted, her reaction practically writing "the thief has a guilty conscience" all over her face.

"Is that so..."

Li Xiao drew out his voice, narrowed his eyes, and let his gaze slowly fall onto her lower lip, asking in a tone even more dangerous than before: "Have you... been to that kind of place?"
