My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Little Crybaby!-Chapter 224 I Didn’t Mean It

Jiang Xuyue wanted to say something else to him, but Xu Jinyan interrupted impatiently, "Okay, class is about to start, stop talking to me!"

Feeling that talking was futile, he didn’t bother to argue further.

"Oh!" Jiang Xuyue withdrew her hand sullenly.

However, it wasn’t long before she heard the voice from behind her again, "Um, I don’t have a book, can I borrow yours?"

Xu Jinyan simply picked up the book beside him and tossed it behind him, just hoping the girl would stop talking.

The new book that had just been handed out had nothing on it except the name.

When she signed up, she had seen last semester’s final grades. Although some people’s grades were quite dreadful, the handwriting of their names was quite good. Xu Jinyan’s name was written boldly and clearly, just like his face, making it unforgettable at a glance.

Jiang Xuyue’s fingers gently slid over the three characters, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up slightly.

Did his willingness to lend her the book mean he didn’t hate her that much?

Maybe this was a good start?

Jiang Xuyue felt content.

After class, He Shang notified her to follow him to get her book.

Jiang Xuyue, holding her own book for the first time, immediately returned Xu Jinyan’s book to him.

"Thank you for your book."

Xu Jinyan reached out to take it, but the girl hesitated to let go as she looked at the name on the cover.

For the first time, Xu Jinyan didn’t flicker an eyelid, he couldn’t help but glanced at the girl, what did she mean? Did she want to monopolize his book and not return it? Xu Jinyan couldn’t help but pull with some force, and the book suddenly slipped out of hand. Jiang Xuyue instinctively reached out to catch it, only to hear a "rip—" as the brand new book cover tore off from the book.

Scared, Jiang Xuyue quickly let go, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to."

Xu Jinyan’s expression was extremely dark. He wasn’t exactly a bibliophile; a torn new book was just that, but it just felt like nothing good happened with that girl around.

"How about I compensate you with my own book?" the girl tentatively suggested.

After saying this, she suddenly realized that this idea was really good!

This way, she could rightfully make his book her own. She was really wise.

"No need!" Xu Jinyan grimly grabbed the coverless book and turned away.

He wasn’t that petty, it was just a book after all. Hopefully, she wouldn’t have the face to ask him for anything else ever again.

A book for peace of mind seemed worth it!

However, Jiang Xuyue clearly had no intention of leaving him alone. It wasn’t long before she habitually poked the person in front of her with a pen, forgetting to put the cap on. A black ink spot instantly appeared on Xu Jinyan’s jacket.

"Uh..." the girl’s face couldn’t help but show some guilt, "Sorry, I got your clothes dirty, you can take it off and I can take it home to wash for you."

Xu Jinyan darkly asked, "Are you sure you can get it clean?"

The thick jacket didn’t seem quite feasible for her to hand wash.

Jiang Xuyue knew she was at fault, "...Otherwise, you tell me what to do?"

Xu Jinyan took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, just my bad luck!"

"I didn’t do it on purpose." Jiang Xuyue looked at his expression, pursed her lips and weakly explained.

Xu Jinyan snapped, "Yes, whether you did it on purpose or not, you just can’t stop causing me trouble." First, she damaged his book, and now she had stained his clothes.

Xu Jinyan felt that maybe their destinies clashed, inherently incompatible.

The best solution was to cherish life and stay away from each other.
