Their noses almost touching, Song Song's mind was in chaos as she looked at the handsome face so close to hers.
Xiao Jinghuai reached out and patted her soft cheek, then stepped aside and crossed his arms. "I'm really hungry, make something for me to eat. This time... don't play any tricks, okay?"
"...Oh."
Song Song had just thought he might actually do something embarrassing, but now it seemed she was overthinking it. She turned her head to look at him and only realized he wasn't joking when she saw his serious expression.
"I'll make it for you right away—"
As she said this, Song Song didn't even realize she had automatically dropped the formal address and simply used the word "you".
Xiao Jinghuai raised an eyebrow, a faint smile in his eyes. He stood next to her and said softly, "Different."
"Uh... different?"
