"Is there something very urgent?" Yao Beidi asked.
"Yes," Xiao Ye nodded.
Yao Beidi bit her lip, seemingly gathering courage for quite a while before speaking, "Can I accompany you?"
"No!" It was a flat, unhesitant, direct refusal.
Yao Beidi's eyes drooped.
Looking at her, Xiao Ye's throat tightened slightly, "If you get bored, after Xiaoxiao comes home from school, you can bring her over to the house."
Yao Beidi nodded.
"I will come back for dinner tonight," Xiao Ye said.
Yao Beidi looked at him.
She thought that with Xiao Xiao around, Xiao Ye wouldn't show up...
And she always felt that Xiao Ye was very resistant to Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Ye seemed unwilling to explain; he flicked his gaze, "I'm a little thirsty. Go get me some ice water."
"Ice water isn't good to drink..." Under Xiao Ye's gaze, Yao Beidi's voice grew fainter and fainter.
Yao Beidi turned to get the ice water from the fridge.
