Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me

But Qin Xiaoxu was willing to be persuaded, so she turned her phone on. As soon as she did, a flurry of missed calls popped up. She was a bit surprised, and her lips curled into a smile, a hint of sweetness blooming in her heart.

It seemed that Lin Jie still cared about her very much. She wanted to call him back immediately, but didn't want to seem too eager, so she decided to wait here, betting that Lin Jie would call her soon.

As expected, it wasn't long before Lin Jie called again. This time the call connected, and Lin Jie, somewhat excited, immediately picked up the phone and said, "Xiaoxu, don't be angry. I really didn't, you've misunderstood me. It's really not like you think. Just now I just accidentally bumped into her... "

"And, those towels and toothbrushes... it's because that kid loves a bargain. He's been out of work and not getting paid recently. He said he'd buy me some stuff and ended up getting me one as well, but I didn't notice they were couple's items. I... I just thought if it's usable, then it's fine.

I didn't think too much about it. Later, I will buy couple's items for you, and I'll only use the same ones as you, okay? I like you..."

Lin Jie spoke haltingly and with an air of impatience.

Qin Xiaoxu, while touched by his words, still pretended to be angry and retorted, "Your words are useless. I won't believe them."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jie on the other end became anxious, "Don't disbelieve me, I can't explain clearly over the phone. Let's meet up."

As Lin Jie spoke, Qin Xiaoxu cleared her throat and said, "Then let's meet at the coffee shop below my apartment. I want to see you within twenty minutes. If you don't show up within twenty minutes, then let's not meet at all!"

Qin Xiaoxu's tone was quite firm. Ye Caiwei, seeing her like this, couldn't help but break into a smile, "Are you really going to treat him like this?"

Qin Xiaoxu feigned arrogance.

"I must show him my stance." Having said that, Qin Xiaoxu took a wet wipe and cleaned her face, which still had the marks of tears. She then sniffled and went downstairs.

After going downstairs, she headed straight for the coffee shop. Upon entering, she was surprised to find Lin Jie already there, panting and propping himself on a table as he looked at her.

Seeing him like that moved Qin Xiaoxu, but she didn't want Lin Jie to see it, so she shook off his hand and found a place to sit down.

Observing her sit down like that, Lin Jie took a seat opposite her and said, "Xiaoxu, you've really misunderstood me. There's really nothing between him and me, really. We both like girls."

As Lin Jie spoke, he signaled the server and said, "Hello, could you please bring us two Americano coffees, half sugar, no ice?" Turning back to Qin Xiaoxu, he added, "You see, I remember exactly how you like your coffee. I've got it all memorized…"

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoxu's expression softened slightly, though she remained silent, still feeling uncertain.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Because of Lin Jie's prior behavior, she had her doubts. Why wouldn't he take a step closer to her?

It was such a simple matter. Lin Jie, seeing her like this, was unsure how to start a conversation, so he just sat quietly across from her.

But after a moment of thought, she finally said, "Xiaoxu, I…" He leaned in close to Qin Xiaoxu, and she felt oddly warm, turning her head to glare at him.

At this point, Lin Jie couldn't care less and he leaned in close.

Qin Xiaoxu frowned but didn't back away; instead, she leaned in and kissed Lin Jie quite dominantly.

Lin Jie's heart pounded as Qin Xiaoxu kissed him. She felt nervous too but tried to act nonchalant.

After they had kissed for a while, Qin Xiaoxu stepped back with a blush on her face. Lin Jie, now somewhat excited, wanted to explain himself, but Qin Xiaoxu covered his mouth and said, "You don't need to say anything; I believe you!"

Hearing these words, Lin Jie felt a rush of excitement.

Qin Xiaoxu was also feeling embarrassed, her cheeks flushed red. As the waiter came over and served the coffee, she took a sip and regained her composure before speaking. "I no longer suspect you like men, but I do have one question. Why is it that when you go shopping with me, the tone of your voice and our conversations are so different, especially at night?

After you go back, the way you chat with me feels different from usual!" Enjoy exclusive chapters from empire

Upon hearing this, Lin Jie panicked. He often didn't know how to respond to Qin Xiaoxu and was afraid she would think he lacked emotional intelligence, but he didn't want to hide things from her either. After all, Qin Xiaoxu had quite the imagination; if he let her keep guessing, it would become even more awkward.

"Actually, sometimes I don't know how to reply to the messages you send me, so I often ask Lin Hao for help, to get some ideas. You know, I'm not very articulate. When you're out shopping with me, sometimes you find my responses quite dull.

I don't know what to say, but I like you. That's the only way I can put it, I don't want you to dislike me..." Lin Jie said, fidgeting with his fingers.

Qin Xiaoxu looked at Lin Jie and firmly and directly said, "You don't need to explain. From now on, when you text me, just express yourself in your own way. But make sure to say things I like to hear, okay? I'm not mad at you."

As Qin Xiaoxu spoke, she simply hoped that their interactions would remain genuine. Lin Jie, relieved by her words, looked at Qin Xiaoxu excitedly and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be good to you, for a lifetime."

When Qin Xiaoxu heard this, her cheeks flushed with a rosy tint; she was quite a shy person and started to laugh.

Now she had finally fully understood what kind of person Lin Jie really was. Lin Jie was too reserved and it was necessary for her to take the initiative. It wasn't that Lin Jie didn't like her, but rather that he valued her so much he got caught up in his thoughts about how to behave around her.

Meanwhile, after hanging up the phone with Lin Jie, Lin Yi lay on the bed laughing for quite some time.

Han Xuewei sat beside him, joining in the laughter.

"Xiaoxu has always thought differently from others since she was young, but the things Lin Jie did were indeed quite misleading.

Their progress is way too slow, isn't it? Although he did manage to feed that guy..."

While Han Xuewei spoke, Lin Yi continued to laugh, slapping the bed.

"The two of them are just too funny. How come it's completely different from our time."
