Forced to Date a Big Shot

C601: Scarf~

Actually, when Xie Yingying said that she wanted to knit a scarf for her boyfriend that day, Xue Xi did not think of Xiang Huai at first. She only thought of the teacher but had never thought of doing it herself.

However, when she left and went to the boutique to ask Xiang Huai to help her choose the wool, she turned to look at Xiang Huai, who was standing at the door.

The man was dressed in black and was hiding in a place that was not illuminated by the sun. However, this man had always been giving her sunlight in her life.

She had grown up in an orphanage and did not know much about the ways of the world. Hence, she was slow when it came to feelings.

As for Xiang Huai, although at first their relationship was because she would die if she did not fall in love, the companionship she had been having with him for more than a year made her feel the sweetness of warmth and love no matter how slow she was.

She was unromantic, but he never felt aggrieved.

Hence, she said to the store assistant, “Wait a moment. I’ll go get another set.”

She’d bought two sets of wool.

After buying it, she could not wait to knit it for him. Hence, she returned home that night. When she asked Ye Li to knit one for the teacher, she was actually watching and learning from the side.

Afraid that Ye Li would laugh at her if she found out, Xue Xi did not dare to knit a scarf at home. Hence, she brought the wool to school.

These last few days...

She was reading in the day because Xie Yingying was staring at her.

At night, when Xie Yingying finally fell asleep, Xue Xi would take out the messy wool and knit a scarf.

She did not stay up that late!

She learned things quickly, but it was her first time weaving a scarf, so she had a rough time. It took her a few days to finish.

However, she felt that it was too ugly and did not want to give it away.

Hence, after Xiang Huai’s hint today, she did not respond. It was only when she said that the scarf was for the teacher and saw the disappointment on the man’s face that she thought, Forget it, I’ll give it to him.

However—

Xue Xi looked at Xiang Huai and saw the man staring at the scarf, but he did not reach out to take it...

Did he find it too ugly?

Xue Xi could not help but say, “Forget it. I’ll have my mother knit one again.”

Just as she was about to take it back, Xiang Huai suddenly reached out and snatched the scarf away. “No need. This is good enough.”

Xiang Huai was stunned.

He felt as though he was on a rollercoaster tonight. He was initially looking forward to the gift, but he was suddenly splashed with cold water. His mood had fallen to rock bottom.

He had originally thought that the little kid would definitely not have any gifts for him. After all, the little kid’s birthday was in March. Back then, he was on a mission and was not in the country, so he did not give her any gifts.

In the end, the surprise came so quickly.

He stared at the bag with the scarf in his hand. It was dark inside and he could not see the shape of the scarf clearly. However, he still held the bag tightly as though he was protecting the most precious thing.
