1341 Chapter 28 Xi Xue Love Story
’Even though grandpa got me dressed like this so I can freely go anywhere alone and be an adventurer.’
The girl’s eyes narrowed.
’But if someone like Xi Xue can see through my disguise...I am not so safe anymore. Or...Xi Xue is just too strong?’
Bíng Huo was silent for a few seconds and the next moment, she shook her head.
’No, no, grandpa said only people with strength on par with a sacred beast can see through me. The ice eagle already knows I’m a girl- wait.’
Bíng Huo’s eyes widened.
"Did she just call me granddaughter in front of Xi Xue??" Bíng Huo sprung up from the bed.
"Then...Xi Xue knows I’m a girl from that??" The girl shouted but not loud enough to be heard by Xi Xue. Right after she shouted, Xi Xue came out of the bathroom, all dressed up.
Hearing the man’s footsteps, the girl hurriedly went back to the bed and pretended to sleep.
The girl tucked in her blanket and held her breath. Her heart started to beat fast as she waited to Xi Xue to do something.
’Now I know Xi Xue already see me as a girl...this is so nerve-wracking!!’
But contrary to Bíng Huo’s expectation, Xi Xue didn’t even approach the girl bed area. He just tidied up his things and laid on the bed, not looking at Bíng Huo’s place at all.
A few minutes passed by and Bíng Huo felt like a dumbass. She slowly kicked away her blanket and stood up.
’Ah, what am I expecting? Xi Xue never makes a move on me even when he knew I’m a girl.’
Bíng Huo went to her own bathroom and sighed.
’He is not interested in me. He even asks me to be his roommate so easily. He really doesn’t seem me as a woman, right?’
This thought somehow made the girl sighed again. A dark cloud floated above her head as her eyes dimmed.
Bíng Huo went to take a bath with a heavy heart while on the other hand, Xi Xue just stared at the ceiling before glancing at the girl’s bedroom area across his.
’So she’s taking a bath.’
Xi Xue sighed. The man had keen ears so he did hear all the noises coming from the girl’s place, including her shout.
’So she already knows I discover her secret? Must be because she’s not really sleeping back then.’
Xi Xue kneaded his temple and sighed again.
’What to do now? She doesn’t know I already know about her discovery. Should I keep pretending to treat her like a brother?’
"But...she will think why I treat her like that despite knowing she’s a girl, " Xi Xue mumbled. The man turned around and stared at the partition.
’Should I tell her I already know her secret? This way she won’t act cold toward me...’
Xi Xue squeezed his eyes and the sound of water tickled his ears. He could hear the sound of water rippling coming from the girl’s bathroom.
’....I can’t focus.’
Xi Xue closed his eyes and somehow the image of Bíng Huo taking a bath merged in his mind. The girl was half-naked as she covered her chest but the rest of her body could be seen as clear as the day.
’....wait, wait did I just- ’
Xi Xue suddenly slapped his own cheeks. So loud that Bíng Huo even heard it.
??
"What the..." The girl subconsciously stood up from the bathtub and the water splashed. She looked at the door and frowned.
’I heard a loud noise...did Xi Xue do something?’
Unable to hide her curiosity, Bíng Huo hurriedly went out of the bathtub and dressed up. The girl wore her disguise ring and she instantly looked like a young man.
Even though in fact, she was still wearing woman clothes. Her wet hair was loosened, scattering over her back.
The water droplets slid down her ice blue hair, looking like a morning dew sliding down a leaf.
The girl went out of her bedroom area with this appearance.
"What’s wrong?" She approached Xi Xue but stopped a few meters in front of his bed.
’Xi Xue can’t see my disguise so I’m safe. He just knows about my gender from that ice eagle.’ Was what Bíng Huo carelessly thought.
Xi Xue had just calmed his mind when the sight of the girl came into view. That appearance after she took a bath looked so erotic that the guy almost got a nosebleed.
’What’s with her appearance?! Doesn’t she know I can see through her disguise??’
"You- you- " Xi Xue gulped hard. His little brother somehow hardened without him realizing. "What are you doing in MY bedroom??"
Xi Xue’s loud voice startled the girl. She flinched and squinted her eyes at Xi Xue.
"Why you shout at me? I’m your senior!" Bíng Huo glared. "I’m just worried since I heard a loud noise from your place!"
’Hmph if I know he will react like this, I won’t care!’
The girl turned around to leave while stomping the ground, looking very angry. She entered her bedroom area and simply ignored the guy.
Xi Xue could only stare blankly at the girl disappearing figure. The guy then looked down at the blanket covering his lower half and one could see a small bulge there.
’Ugh, f*ck this thing!’
Xi Xue slapped his thing and threw his body to the bed.
’I must be so frustrated to mate. In the past, I suppress my mating instinct with a certain herb. Now I can’t find it...’
Xi Xue’s eyes narrowed.
