Xu Wanwan secretly observed for a while and saw that he was holding something in his hand, and then she walked toward the cashier.

The distance was a little far, so she did not see clearly what he was holding.

But since it was a proper purchase, why was he hiding it?

Could it be that he wanted to... steal?

As the Second Young Master of the Li family, how could he do such a demeaning act?

No, he was still a member of the Li family. She could not sit by idly.

Xu Wanwan pursed her lips and quickly followed Lin Jianan. “Why don’t we check out? I got my bonus yesterday, these are on me.”

“No need, no need. I have pocket money.” Lin Jianan immediately rejected.

Xu Wanwan pushed the snack cart toward the cashier and said awkwardly, “I’ll settle the bill later. Can you do me a favor?”

Lin Jianan was very surprised. She had never heard of such a strange request before.

However, when she heard that it was to help Xu Wanwan, she did not decline and compromised, “Okay, then I’ll treat you next time.”

Xu Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief. She pushed the cart and jogged toward the cashier, deliberately standing behind Li Xuyi.

It was Li Xuyi’s turn to settle his purchases. Xu Wanwan saw that he did not take out the things in his hands. She was worried that he did not have the money to pay and did not want to embarrass him, so she simply carried all her snacks in the cart to the checkout counter.

The cashier pushed the items away. “Hey student, there’s another one in front of you.”

Xu Wanwan faintly smiled at her. “I’m in a hurry. Why don’t we settle together?”

“You mean, you want to pay for the student in front of you?”

Xu Wanwan did not say anything and nodded.

“Then... the student in front, please put the things you’re buying at the checkout counter”

Li Xuyi looked back and frowned.

“Why is it you again?”

Xu Wanwan blinked. “What a coincidence, I didn’t expect to run into you here.”

The corner of Lu Xuyi’s eyes raised slightly, a hint of playfulness in his eyes. “You want to pay for me?”

“Well... I didn’t let you sit in my seat yesterday. I didn’t do it on purpose.” Xu Wanwan made up a random excuse. “I’ll treat you today as compensation.”

Li Xuyi’s tone was mocking. “Do you like me so much that you want to buy me something?”

This girl had only seen him twice, and she actually wanted to chase after him?

Xu Wanwan maintained her smile. “There are still many students waiting in line. Can you hurry up?”

“Sure, it’s your treat.” Li Xuyi smiled playfully, threw the TT in his hand at the checkout counter, and deliberately said out loud, “Threaded, one hundred eight.”

Xu Wanwan looked at the items at the checkout counter, and her face immediately turned red. “You...”

Li Xuyi crossed his arms and looked at her. “Hurry up, there are still people waiting behind.”

The cashier gave Xu Wanwan a strange look. He scanned the price of the TT on the cash register and said, “It’s a total of five hundred and eighty yuan. How do you want to pay?”

“Swipe my card.” Xu Wanwan had an embarrassed look on her face. After paying, she carried her items and walked out.

If she had known that Li Xuyi was buying that item, she would not have taken the initiative to pay him.

It’s like having done a bad thing with good intentions. Perhaps that person even thought that she had a special fetish.

“Wanwan, wait for me!”

Lin Jianan, who had been standing behind them, was dumbfounded. She chased after her and complained, “Why is Li Xuyi like this, ah? He’s really despicable. You were kind enough to treat him, but he still made you feel so awkward.”

Xu Wanwan tried her best to calm down. “It’s not his fault. I didn’t know what he was going to buy that.”

“I told you he’s not a good person,” Lin Jianan echoed what somewhat said before. “It’s only been a few days since school started, and he’s already hitting on girls. He must have bad intentions in buying such a thing.”

When Xu Wanwan heard her words, she suddenly thought of something and stopped in her tracks.

If Li Xuyi were to really do something immoral with that thing, wouldn’t it damage the Li family’s reputation?

Perhaps Li Jingran would also be implicated…

“Wanwan, what’s wrong?”

Xu Wanwan came back to her senses. “I still need to take care of some things. Why don’t you go back first?”

“Then do you want me to accompany you?”

“No need, I can handle it myself,” Xu Wanwan said as she handed over the snacks in her hand. “I’ll be right back.”

Lin Jianan said, “Okay, then I’ll wait for you in the classroom.”

Xu Wanwan went back the way she came and found Li Xuyi near the supermarket.

He was leaning against the roadside, smoking. The outline of his profile became blurred in the smoke, giving off an aura that no one was allowed to approach.

Xu Wanwan clenched her fists lightly and walked over in small steps. “I have something to tell you.”

Li Xuyi took a puff of his cigarette and blew out a thick puff of smoke toward Xu Wanwan’s face. He said slyly, “Why? Do you want to confess to me?”

Xu Wanwan inhaled the smoke deeply, entering her nostrils. She choked and coughed a few times, making her eyes fill with tears.

Li Xuyi slightly hooked the corners of his lips, thinking that bullying her was quite interesting.

Xu Wanwan calmed down after a while and let out a sigh of relief. She said seriously, “You have just become an adult. Your first task is to study hard and not think about playing around.”

“Besides, you have to have some basic principles in life. You can’t do those immoral things. Otherwise, your family will be very sad.”

Li Xuyi tilted his head and flicked the cigarette ash as he looked at the serious-looking girl, feeling baffled.

“Is there something wrong with your brain?”

“Didn’t you buy those things just now to do those immoral things?” Xu Wanwan raised her small face, her attitude serious.

“Did you stipulate that I can’t buy those things?” Li Xuyi couldn’t be bothered with her. His tone turned harsh. “If you have a brain problem, then go and have it treated. Don’t hang around me.”

Xu Wanwan didn’t expect that he would scold her for reminding him kindly and felt a little wronged.

She looked straight at the boy in front of her, not saying a word, as her beautiful peach blossom eyes misted.

Li Xuyi frowned when he saw that she was about to cry, scolding her in a deep voice, “Women are so troublesome.”

“Brother Xu, didn’t I tell you to go buy something? How come it’s taking you so long to buy it?”

Xu Wanwan looked to the side. A boy in sportswear was running toward her.

The running boy was very tall, towering over her as he came to a complete stop by her side.

Xu Wanwan was a little scared and took two steps back.

Li Xuyi looked at Xu Wanwan and said meaningfully, “It’s one thing to buy a lousy item, but then I met a fool on the way. Such a downer.”

Xu Wanwan felt wronged and argued, “How am I a fool?”

“You bought that kind of thing at such a young age to do that kind of thing. This is immoral. I’m going to tell your family.”

When the boy next to him heard this, he immediately covered his stomach and laughed wildly. “No, we’re just playing Truth or Dare. How can that be immoral?”

This time, it was Xu Wanwan’s turn to be stunned. “Truth or Dare?”

The boy originally wanted to make fun of Xu Wanwan, but when he took a closer look, he inexplicably felt that the person in front of him was very familiar.

He patted his head and said in disbelief, “You.... aren’t you the school’s top scorer in Science?”
