As he spoke, Lin Jiage discreetly shot a glance behind him.
The Honey Tea Lady's complexion turned a little awkward and awful.
It was only then that Lin Jiage retracted his gaze in relief. However, he didn't stop coaxing Shi Yao. Due to the distance between them, he even raised his voice a little, "Besides, she said quite a few words to me back then, but didn't I just ignore her?"
"I didn't want to talk to her either, but that won't do. I have to reject her. If I don't reject her, she might think that I'm ignoring her. Wouldn't that be even more troublesome?"
"…"
Lin Jiage spoke one sentence after another, not giving Shi Yao a chance to speak at all.
It wasn't until they were out of the teaching block and out of the Honey Tea Lady's sight that Lin Jiage finally stopped talking after Shi Yao's repeated "wait wait wait wait".
She had been in Lin Jiage's embrace for the entire journey, and it was summer. Her clothes were thin, so she could clearly feel the warmth and firmness of his chest.
On top of that, the fragrance from his body continued to seep into her nose.
It made Shi Yao's heart race. When Lin Jiage finally stopped talking, she blushed and muttered "Y-y-y-y-you" for a long while before she finally realized what she wanted to say, "What … are you doing?"
"Oh …" In contrast to Shi Yao's nervousness, Lin Jiage appeared much calmer. "… I'm asking for your help …"
Asking for my help?
Shi Yao blinked her eyes in confusion as she looked at Lin Jiage.
It was only then that she realized that she was still in Lin Jiage's embrace.
Her face heated up once more, and she instinctively lowered her head to struggle out of Lin Jiage's embrace.
She was going to ask him what he meant by asking for his help, but she found herself unable to bring herself to say it.
The atmosphere between the two of them fell silent for a moment before Lin Jiage spoke up, "I didn't have the time to inform you in advance, so I acted on my own … What I meant by asking for your help is to use you as a shield to reject that lady …"
After a moment of silence, Lin Jiage asked, "You … don't mind, right?"
Of course, he wouldn't mind at all, but he had to carry her for such a long distance …
With a reddened face, Shi Yao didn't know how she should respond to Lin Jiage's question, so she chose to remain silent.
Lin Jiage stared at her reddened neck for a moment before speaking up apologetically, "I thought that we were friends, so I thought that you wouldn't mind. If you did, I wouldn't have asked you to help me so casually in the future …"
Shi Yao thought that Lin Jiage had misunderstood her, so she hurriedly shook her head and interjected, "N-no … I don't mind at all …"
She was just a little embarrassed … But, how could she say such words out loud!
Shi Yao pondered for a moment before changing the topic, "About that … aren't we going to eat? Let's … eat spicy hotpot, what do you think? "
Lin Jiage nodded, looking as if he was willing to eat anything. "Sure."
Lin Jiage paused for a moment before adding, "Lead the way."
Shi Yao replied with a "Un" before making her way to the entrance of the academy.
Lin Jiage quickly followed suit.
Along the way, the two of them didn't speak at all, but Lin Jiage would occasionally sneak glances at Shi Yao.
As he stared at her, he couldn't help but recall how he had hugged her waist earlier.
Even though they were separated by a layer of clothes, he could still feel the softness of her body …
