Cillian took a seat next to Xinyu. Tianlin took a seat in front of them. Cillian looked at Xinyu and caressed his head.
Xinyu looked at him and his cheeks flushed. Cillian's eyes softened. He can't help but feel guilty about his behavior in the OGTL.
He had no idea how much Xinyu liked him. Just like Cillian, he showed nothing. But as soon as his lesson was over, Xinyu would run to his father excitedly.
He would tell him everything Cillian taught him with a bright smile. Cillian is the first person he ever wanted to be closer to.
Even if Cillian loved teaching him, and it was the only time he didn't feel stressed, he acted the same with him as everyone else.
He didn't want people to think he was using Xinyu, and he thought Xinyu didn't care for him that much. Despite that he still adored him. Something was endearing about him.
