Chapter 723

Looking at the red lips within reach, Ye Xuan's thin lips trembled faintly, and a voice in his mind was clamoring: Kiss her, kiss her...

And he executed it as such, slowly preparing to lean in.

For a moment, it seemed they could both smell each other's scent.

Just then, at the moment Ye Xuan was only one centimeter away from Yang Mi's lips.

An abrupt sound rang out from behind.

"Sister Mi, I came to find you to go shopping..."

As the last word fell, Reba saw the scene before her, her mouth wide open in surprise, her eyes staring fixedly at the scene.

A few seconds later, she suddenly came to her senses, as if she had discovered a shocking secret, turned around quickly, and spoke stutteringly.

"Um, Sister Mi, I, um, I didn't mean to, let's, um!!!"

Gently pushing Ye Xuan, Yang Mi reminded him in a low voice.

"Get up first. I can't stand up like this; you're crushing my leg."

Being suddenly caught by Reba, Ye Xuan only had a flash of panic, but quickly calmed his mind, stood up unhurriedly, and even took the opportunity to help Yang Mi up, smiling lightly.

"That's because you're clumsy and couldn't stand steady, dragging me down with you. If it weren't for this sofa, we would have both fallen flat on our faces today."

This half-joking tone did a good job of easing the current atmosphere.

But Reba, standing with her back to them, felt truly anxious and depressed in her heart.

She had thought many times about the moment she would express her thoughts, but she never expected that the relationship between Sister Mi and Teacher Ye Xuan would be so extraordinary; her mind was a bit chaotic.

Yet she didn't want to leave just like that, standing stiffly in place with her back straight.

Yang Mi was a bit angry at his obvious attempt to defuse the situation, glared at him without a trace, and then raised a smile to go and link arms with Reba, clearly looking like they had a very good relationship.

However, after pulling Reba around to the front of the sofa, Yang Mi casually stuffed the sanitary napkins Ye Xuan had just bought into his arms, reminding him in a tone that was half-coquettish and half-scolding 0......

"Teacher Ye Xuan, since you've helped me this far, please put them all on the nightstand in the inner room. Reba and I still have things to talk about, so it's just as well you avoid us for a bit."

"Just consider it giving us space to chat. Please, go in quickly. I'll go out to eat with you in a while."

Secretly noticing their sweet interaction through her peripheral vision, Reba felt as if a large stone were pressing on her heart, her throat blocked by something, unable to say a single word, her eyes stinging with the desire to cry.

Regarding her sudden closeness, Ye Xuan didn't think otherwise, turned around to carry the items back to the inner room, and obediently lay on the bed waiting for them to finish chatting.

Witnessing with her own eyes the special treatment Teacher Ye Xuan gave her good friend—not only helping Da Mimi buy that item but also being so obedient in avoiding them, and mainly being willing to go out to eat with her publicly.

Could it be that they were already together?

Or were they already prepared to make it official?

Thinking of that possibility, Reba couldn't utter a single word, her eyes staring fixedly at the direction Ye Xuan had gone.

Regarding Reba, Yang Mi had always treated her as a good friend.

However, feelings are something that really cannot be handed over just because the relationship is good.

If she hadn't seen it wrong, Reba's eyes just now were full of obsession for Ye Xuan.

Since she had already made her move and they had had a substantial relationship, Yang Mi really didn't want to back down, so she could only hint for Reba to retreat on her own.

Yang Mi feigned shyness as she leaned close to Reba, lowering her voice to tease.

"Let me tell you, I just didn't take my makeup remover when I went to take a shower, and I didn't want him to see me looking like a painted cat, so I told him it was inconvenient and asked him to go out and wait for a while."

"As a result, that fool thought I was on my period and ran off foolishly to buy sanitary napkins. I really wanted to die laughing. Don't you think he's silly?"

A flash of ugliness crossed Reba's face, and she nodded in agreement.

"I didn't expect Teacher Ye Xuan to be like this in private; it's really very surprising."

Her voice was a bit low.

"Then it seems he really cares about you, Sister Mi. Otherwise, with his reputation, going out to buy this for you would definitely hit the trending headlines and shock the eyes of all the netizens."

She glanced at Yang Mi faintly, saying in an envious tone.

"It seems Teacher Ye Xuan is really very good to you, Sister Mi."
