The person just a few meters away from him held a bucket of popcorn and a cup of cola, standing there, looking at him with a calm gaze that betrayed no change in expression.
Huo Qi's heart suddenly trembled.
"Professor..."
And Xiao Yixing, looking at him, walked over step by step.
Standing before him with the popcorn in hand, he began lightly, "Here's the popcorn you wanted. Let's go, it's about to start."
It was as if none of what had just transpired had actually happened; he mentioned nothing of it.
Taking the lead, he walked ahead, but Huo Qi stood still, holding the popcorn.
Xiao Yixing stopped walking. He didn't turn around but instead glanced down to the right and spoke in a clear tone, "What's the matter?"
"...Nothing."
Huo Qi's lips moved as he spoke.
A sudden inexplicable displeasure welled up in his heart, especially upon seeing him like this. Did he feel increasingly… ashamed?
What was he afraid of just now?
