Chapter 953: Want to Chat Up? No Way

But immediately following that—Li Xiao suddenly saw Cai Xiaotang make a move.

He saw her quickly lower her head and take her wallet directly out of her backpack.

Gu Han also hadn't expected her to make such a move and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Without hesitation, Cai Xiaotang took some cash directly out of her bag and placed it on the table.

Then she said straightforwardly, "This piece of clothing of yours shouldn't be cheap, but this is enough. Take it to buy a new one; as for strolling around, there's no need."

"You..."

Gu Han hadn't expected her to be so "unsparing," and he immediately lost some face.

The few boys on the side almost laughed out loud upon hearing this, but out of consideration for Gu Han's face, they all held it in very "painfully."

Cai Xiaotang, however, couldn't be bothered to stay any longer; she turned around and walked toward the door, intending to ease her mood.

On the stairs—Li Xiao stood where he was, his face already beaming with a smile.

He never would have expected that Cai Xiaotang would resolve it in such a way.

It seems that man downstairs has kicked an iron plate this time...

The jealousy in his heart was smoothed over somewhat by Cai Xiaotang's straightforward actions, and only then did Li Xiao unhurriedly go downstairs, intending to follow her to see where she was going.

At the dining table, Gu Han was staring at the cash in front of him, his face already somewhat darkened.

The person beside him saw this and hurriedly advised, "Young Master Gu, don't be angry. This... this woman is clearly the type who doesn't understand romance; there's no point in getting her. Why not let me introduce a few younger sisters for you to get to know? The one I got yesterday, her friend is quite good..."

"Heh."

Gu Han let out a cold snort, stood up directly, whispered a few words into the ear of the person who had just spoken, and left without looking back.

Outside the guesthouse.

Cai Xiaotang was walking aimlessly along the road.

She actually wasn't hungry, nor did she have any appetite to eat anything.

She just thought she couldn't keep cooped up in the room and waste the seaside scenery, so she wanted to go downstairs for a walk.

Walking straight ahead along the road, there was a large stretch of beach on the right.

On the left were all kinds of local specialty shops emerging one after another.

Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath and finally felt the tightness in her chest lighten quite a bit.

Actually, that Gu Han... wasn't annoying.

In the past, she might have said a few more words to him.

But...

His figure and his back were really somewhat...

Making her easily think of Li Xiao.

Therefore, she didn't even have the interest to make friends.

Cai Xiaotang continued walking forward, her mind unable to stop thinking of someone's shadow, and her expression couldn't help but become somewhat lonely.

With such beautiful scenery, she could only watch it alone.

It's all that guy's fault for being too busy.

From the time they met until now, they haven't even had time to simply go out and play.

No, that's not right...

How could they possibly not think of anything and just go out and play to their heart's content?

What if they encountered danger?

If that guy doesn't get into trouble or get hurt, she would thank the heavens.

In the distance—Li Xiao carefully followed behind Cai Xiaotang, looking at her back, his heart already unable to stop feeling a fine, dense pain.

He didn't know why, but her back at this moment made him feel... very heartbroken.

He really wanted to go up and give her a hug...

As Li Xiao thought this, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure flashing past him!

It was exactly Gu Han, whose clothes had been wetted by Cai Xiaotang just a moment ago!

"Sister Caicai!"

Gu Han shouted, calling out to stop Cai Xiaotang.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiao's brow instantly furrowed even tighter.

Sister Caicai?

Do they know each other?

His footsteps paused, his eyes swept around, and he took the opportunity to hide his figure behind a tree.

But Gu Han had already run far away, making it impossible for him to hear any sound.

He could only see him quickly stand in front of Cai Xiaotang, seemingly saying something.

Cai Xiaotang also hadn't expected him to chase after her; she was somewhat surprised and also somewhat helpless.

Immediately after, she heard the person in front of her apologize, "I'm sorry, Sister Caicai. I was actually just teasing you earlier. You wouldn't be angry, would you?"

As he spoke, he took out the money Cai Xiaotang had given him earlier.

Cai Xiaotang raised an eyebrow and didn't take it, only replying, "I'm not angry. It was me who dirtied your clothes in the first place, so compensation is only right..."

【Empty line】

"But I didn't really want you to compensate me."

Gu Han said, revealing that "sunny and harmless" smile again, and continued, "I just wanted to make friends with you, I really didn't mean anything else. Since we're out traveling, isn't it normal to make friends when you meet someone of a similar age?"

Cai Xiaotang sighed helplessly in her heart.

Just as she was about to refuse, she heard him continue, "I can tell that you seem to have a lot on your mind. I won't ask too much; I just hope that if you are willing, you can let me be a listener. You really don't need to be so guarded against me..."

"... Besides, you've already rejected me twice! And right in front of my friends, it really makes me lose face..."

His last sentence made Cai Xiaotang pause for a moment, and she suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh.

Boys at this age have very strong self-esteem.

It really was hard on him to have taken the initiative to stick to her twice in these past two days...

However, she really did not want to "make friends."

If the other party were a sleazy middle-aged man, she could have rejected him even more decisively and ruthlessly, or even taught him a lesson.

But as it happens...

As Cai Xiaotang was thinking this and preparing to open her mouth to refuse—a buzzing sound suddenly rang in her ears, coming from far to near!

She saw a motorcycle rushing toward the two of them at extreme speed!

She was stunned for a moment, but in the second she hesitated, she felt the other party had already rushed right in front of her!

"Watch out!"

Her arm was yanked hard, and a figure instantly blocked her front, shielding her.

In the distance, another figure also rushed out suddenly.

But then stopped instantly.

Cai Xiaotang was dazed, still not having fully recovered her senses.

The motorcycle, however, did not stop for a moment and buzzed away directly!

The person riding the bike was wearing a helmet, and one could only tell from their back that it was a man.

"Are you alright?"

Gu Han's worried voice rang in her ears.

He then added unhappily: "There are a lot of these street racers on this road; they never care about pedestrians. You must be careful when walking alone..."

"

"Thank you..."

Cai Xiaotang thanked him subconsciously.

Her peripheral vision suddenly caught a red patch on Gu Han's arm.

The skin in the middle had been scraped off, and blood was seeping out.

"You're hurt!"

Cai Xiaotang's eyes widened suddenly, and she hurriedly and instinctively fished a tissue out of her bag and handed it to him.

Gu Han, however, waved his hand dismissively and casually wiped the wound with his palm.

"It's just a bit of scraped skin, it doesn't even count as a wound. As long as you're fine, that's all that matters."

As he said this, seeing the look of guilt all over Cai Xiaotang's face, he curled his lips slightly.

He then "naturally" suggested: "However... if you really feel bad about it, why not... accompany me to buy some clothes? I can also take you around for a stroll. Sister Cai Cai, I really just want to make friends with you. Considering I just saved you, why don't you give me a chance..."
