Chapter 28: She likes you and thinks everything about you is beautiful.
— What does it mean when someone compliments your hands for being beautiful???
Although the screen was closed by the eldest miss with lightning speed, the embarrasment still lingered in the air.
Such a socially mortifying moment could almost make Mu Xiaoxiao want to curl her toes and run out of the villa. But seeing that the eldest miss' face had turned red, spreading all the way to her ears and neck, how could Mu Xiaoxiao, as a psychologist, not be considerate... and offer some reassurance?
"Eldest Miss, I didn't see anything."
In the darkness, her voice was sincere, though she was clearly holding back laughter.
Qin Yi stared at Mu Xiaoxiao with eyes that seemed ready to tear her apart.
Mu Xiaoxiao held her gaze, the amusement in her eyes almost spilling out. "Really, I didn't see what you were searching for."
She's just too cute—I want to get close and pinch her face.
Mu—Xiao—Xiao!
A pillow came flying her way, accompanied by Mu Xiaoxiao's laughter, and with a loud "bang," the eldest miss' door slammed shut.
Mu Xiaoxiao was genuinely teasing her. Even though Qin Yi had just experienced a suffocating embarrassment like never before, the person outside the room was still laughing happily.
How could she not laugh? The eldest miss was simply adorable.
Compared to the cold, distant eldest miss who had only watched falling leaves outside the window when they first met, Mu Xiaoxiao much preferred this version of her—someone who could feel joy and anger.
She had come alive.
She was no longer so icy and detached.
The eldest miss was so beautiful, cute, strong, and domineering.
How could she only like her hands?
Mu Xiaoxiao wanted to tell Qin Yi that she liked everything about her.
Xiaoxiao's upbringing was different from the eldest miss'. She had always been someone who expressed herself freely. During her days in the orphanage, she and her younger siblings had depended on each other.
Though the orphanage director and grandmother cared deeply for them, there were simply too many children, and it was inevitable that some needs went unmet.
Back then, Xiaoxiao would hold little Qiuqiu in her arms almost every day, kiss her on the forehead: "Big sister loves you. You're the most beautiful little girl in the world."
And Qiuqiu would lift her head and kiss her sister's cheek in return: "I love you too, big sister."
Born without the love of parents or family, they could only warm each other with such affection. Since they weren't born to be loved, blessed, or expected, they never held back from saying "I love you" during their growth. If they didn't express love like this, how could they grow up happy and healthy in such a cold, lonely world?
Mu Xiaoxiao didn't take today's little episode to heart. But inside the room, the eldest miss emotions were going through a storm.
Qin Yi wasn't someone who overthinks or reads into things easily. But now, because of Mu Xiaoxiao, Qin Yi was experiencing, for the first time, the feeling of utter confusion.
After a few minutes, Qin Yi managed to calm down. She reopened her computer and stared at the search results on Baidu:
- First possibility: She likes you and thinks everything about you is beautiful.
