In the eyes of others, Gu Xie had a cool personality and was like an unattainable flower. He never had any rumors, and everyone believed that Lin Xiaojuan was the one trying to pursue Gu Xie. Lin Xiaojuan's face burned from shyness, and she was about to dodge their questioning.
Gu Xie said gentlemanly, "I'm the one who pursued her. Xiaojuan isn't thick-skinned. Stop fooling around."
These words sounded soft, but for some reason, there seemed to be a tinge of a threat hidden in it. Everyone kept their thoughts to themselves. Lin Xiaojuan's ears turned really red. She tugged at his sleeve and said softly, "They're just kidding. You don't have to take it so seriously."
"I do!" Gu Xie said calmly. "What's more, it's true."
Lin Xiaojuan was speechless.
Gu Xie said, "Try it. Tell me if it's too bland or thick. I'll make it taste better for tomorrow."
