Chapter 365 Don't Make Things Difficult for Yourself

Jiang Xin was sullen, and her voice sounded unusually low.

"I just feel like I went a little too far before."

Xu Zirui took it as a kitten being affectionate, "Now that Xinxin has changed, isn't that great?"

Jiang Xin suddenly broke free and stared stubbornly at Xu Zirui.

"This is different!"

Xu Zirui tilted his head slightly, "Then what is Xinxin like?"

Jiang Xin's carefully constructed composure was shattered, and she returned to her flat state.

"I, I don't know either."

The next second, Xu Zirui gently stroked the stray strands of hair at her temples.

"Xinxin, take your time thinking about it, but don't make things difficult for yourself, okay?"

Jiang Xin nodded, her fingers gently hooking around Xu Zirui's hand.

After Xu Zirui looked over in confusion, she quietly lowered her head, avoiding eye contact.

The two leaned against each other like that, and after some time, Jiang Xin, as if fully charged, said with great interest, "Speaking of which, didn't someone promise to go out alone with me?"

Xu Zirui looked at her in surprise, "Really? I don't remember."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xin became much more depressed.

She glanced at Xu Zirui again, her gaze sharpening as she asked, "Are you really not willing?"

Xu Zirui, who had been holding back his laughter for a long time, finally burst out laughing.

"Just kidding. I only have five days of leave. Where are you planning to go?"

Jiang Xin's life is filled with work, and this is the first time she has thought about how to relax.

She felt a little out of place.

"I do not know."

Jiang Xin ultimately chose to tell the truth frankly.

Xu Zirui has been working very hard these past few years, and the two busy people can only look at each other in bewilderment.

In the end, Jiang Xin made up her mind: "Let's go back tonight and arrange our work first, then we'll see if we should go to the beach or the mountains?"

Xu Zirui is not picky.

Since Jiang Xin had made her decision, he was happy to comply.

By the time I finished dinner and got home, it was almost eleven o'clock.

As soon as Xu Zirui opened the door, he heard a noise from next door.

"Brother Zirui..."

Xu Zirui looked up in response and found that it was He Yuqing, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Are you getting off work this late?"

Xu Zirui pretended not to see the sorrow on He Yuqing's face and greeted her with a gentle smile.

He Yuqing couldn't help but stomp her foot.

"Brother Zirui, are you still pretending to be stupid? Is it true that you won't tell me anything unless I ask you?!"

As she finished speaking, a tear slid down He Yuqing's cheek.

Xu Zirui was stunned for a moment upon seeing this, then quickly took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it over.

"Yuqing, why do you think that way?"

He Yuqing took the tissue, but did not use it. Instead, she held it tightly in her palm, as if it could give her strength.

"When did you and that girl become cousins? I grew up with you and I never even knew that?"

It turns out it was all a misunderstanding.

Xu Zirui was both amused and exasperated.

"Silly girl, that really is my distant cousin. You don't know because we only met recently."

He Yuqing pouted, her face instantly turning red.

She stammered, seemingly embarrassed, "I don't know, but why are you cousins ​​holding hands so close?"

Xu Zirui chuckled and said helplessly, "That's pretty much like using a camera trick. Yuanyuan just wanted to thank me."

He dispelled He Yuqing's sullen mood with just a few words.

He Yuqing glared at Xu Zirui with a mixture of shyness and resentment, "Brother Zirui is just biased."

Xu Zirui could tell what the girl was thinking at a glance, and then he straightened his expression and said seriously, "Yuqing, you are my sister."
