Xiao Xiao pretended that he didn't hear anything in Zhang Bo's words and greeted them one by one with a smile.
Something always happened during this summer vacation, and Xiao Qi and Xiao Lin came to stay for a while. Speaking of which, Xiao Xiao only helped out at the teahouse for only a few days.
So in the last few days of summer vacation, Xiao Xiao wanted to help in the teahouse until the end.
Summer is the peak season for teahouse business. Xiao's Teahouse is a rare busy time of the year, so grandma and Xiao's mother are inevitably a little busy.
Every summer, Xiao Xiao basically spends his time helping out in the teahouse.
Therefore, Xiao Xiao could only pretend not to hear Zhang Bo's accusation.
Seeing this, Zhang Bo didn't say anything else. He was just complaining. Since Xiao Xiao wanted to stay at home to help, they understood.
"Okay, now that the third child is back, let's go out for a big meal at noon today!"
"Although the third child is excusable, we still have to express our feelings. After all, in order to wait for you, we have been suppressing the desire to eat a big meal."
Zhuge Yun was gearing up, with a sly smile on his face.
"Yep."
Zhang Bo and Zhao Luzheng also looked like they were "butchering the fat sheep".
"Okay, I'll pay for this meal."
Xiao Xiao said very wisely.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go eat."
"Let's go."
…
The university that had been quiet during the summer vacation has returned to its former glory.
Students came and went, chattering.
The new semester has begun.
…
After eating and drinking, Xiao Xiao and the others walked slowly towards the dormitory.
The bright sunlight casts variegated shadows through the gaps between the densely packed leaves.
Walking under the shade of the trees, one step is bright and the other is dark, giving Xiao Xiao and the others a strange feeling of walking in the long river of time that is uncertain in light and death.
"Master Xiao!"
The girl's sweet and soft voice attracted the attention of many people. A soft girl wearing a dark red navy dress trotted up to a boy and looked at the boy who had "nothing good" except for his height.
I can't help but feel sad about her appearance. These days, flowers are stuck on "cow dung".
Not many people noticed that peculiar title for a while.
Chi Xiuchuan closed his mouth helplessly, followed Chi Xiuke, and smiled apologetically at Xiao Xiao, but he didn't have time to stop him.
He knew that Master Xiao didn't want to be called Master Xiao in school, but when the girl saw Master Xiao, she was so excited that she called him out without thinking.
Chi Xiuchuan raised his forehead a little.
…
Hearing some familiar voices and titles, Xiao Xiao followed the sound and found that it was indeed Chi Xiuke.
The ribbon bow on the girl's hair trembled slightly as she ran. When she ran to him, her cheeks, which were slightly baby fat, showed a light blush, exuding a sweet girlish aura.
"Master Xiao~"
Chi Xiuke stood between the light and shadow, smiling brightly.
"Chi Xiuke."
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but smile, and then looked at Chi Xiuchuan who was following Chi Xiuke with a wry smile on his face, "Chi Xiuchuan."
"Sorry, Master Xiao."
Since his younger sister already called him this title loudly, Chi Xiuchuan simply didn't want to make it too obvious. To be honest, this title was still easy to pronounce.
Maybe it's because the first time Master Xiao appeared in front of him was in a "savior" capacity, right?
"I didn't have time to stop it."
Chi Xiuchuan was very sorry.
"fine."
It's just a title, it's harmless.
Xiao Xiao just felt that this title would be a bit troublesome for others to hear.
Even just curious inquiries would make him a little distressed.
But at this point, there was nothing he could do. He could already feel the burning gazes of Zhang Bo and others on him.
"Master Xiao?"
Zhang Bo and others said in unison, looking at Xiao Xiao with doubtful faces, and then at the cute girl they didn't recognize.
By the way, the girl is really green and tender. She looks like a freshman this year. Is this an early registration?
You must know that the boys in the class are all rushing to welcome new students, just to meet a cute girl, right?
However, now, the cute girls are also suppressing their doubts about the title "Master Xiao".
Master Xiao? What a fresh title.
Zhang Bo and others stared at Xiao Xiao with expressions that meant "lenity for those who confess, severity for those who resist".
Xiao Xiao "pretended to be deaf and dumb" and introduced several people.
"These are my roommates in the same dormitory, Zhang Bo, Zhuge Yun, and Zhao Luzheng."
"This is my... friend." Xiao Xiao thought about the definition of the Chi family siblings. Well, they should be... friends, right?
"Brother Chi Xiuchuan, sister Chi Xiuke."
"Hello."
"Hello."
…
After some pleasantries, everyone got to know each other.
"Why do you call the third child Master Xiao?"
Zhang Bo was the first to ask uncontrollably.
Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng also looked puzzled.
...
Chi Xiuke later realized that she was reckless when she saw her brother's expression and heard his apology to Master Xiao. She couldn't help but stick out her tongue in embarrassment. However, Master Xiao was Master Xiao, and she didn't think this was the case.
Is there any need to hide it? But experts all like to hide themselves from the world, right?
Therefore, after all, it was his own negligence. After hearing Master Xiao say that it was okay, Chi Xiuke let go of his uneasy heart.
As Master Xiao's number one "fan girl", Chi Xiuke has great trust in Master Xiao.
Since Master Xiao said it's okay, it means it's okay.
...
Hearing Zhang Bo's question, Chi Xiuke pursed her lips and smiled delicately in response to Zhang Bo's and the other three's seeking answers, "Because Master Xiao is Master Xiao."
For Chi Xiuke, this is indeed the case.
And Zhang Bo and others:...
Damn, what’s the difference between answering and not answering?!
However, seeing the girl smiling so beautifully, Zhang Bo and others decided to skip this question for the time being and "interrogate" Lao San again after they returned to the dormitory.
Zhang Bo and the others looked at each other and understood clearly what others were thinking.
Seeing this tacit understanding, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but feel worried.
…
Chi Xiuke was a newly admitted freshman. Chi Xiuchuan was taking his younger sister to get acquainted with the campus when they happened to bump into Xiao Xiao and his group who were returning from dinner.
Chi Xiuke's sharp eyes were the first to see Master Xiao. It wasn't until his sister called out that Chi Xiuchuan noticed Master Xiao not far away.
Who told him to always focus on his baby sister?
…
Everyone chatted for a while and then separated.
Zhang Bo, Zhuge Yun, and Zhao Luzheng looked at the back of Chi Xiuke who followed their brother away with some reluctance.
"Why don't you just follow me?"
Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"But my brother is here."
If his brother hadn't been there, Zhang Bo and the others would have volunteered to take the girl around the campus.
However, my brother stands right next to the girl, and he looks like a girl-controller at first glance.
When they meet for the first time, they can't act too "eager", they still have to leave a good impression on their elder brother.
