Chapter 2903: Chapter 2901: Ran Into It
However much she tried, she simply couldn’t understand what that man was thinking.
Clearly, much of what she knew was taught by him, yet she simply couldn’t keep up with his thoughts, which left her feeling very defeated.
In any case, she wouldn’t ask again. That would make her seem really dumb, wouldn’t it?
"Can’t you watch where you’re walking?" The man turned to look back, reprimanding her as he felt the movement behind him.
"Who told you to stop suddenly without warning?" Chu Xiaoqiao rubbed her aching nose, hoping she wouldn’t get a nosebleed.
For some reason, ever since she was young, her nose was prone to bleeding.
Sometimes just a minor bump could make it bleed, so people often teased her, saying her nose was made of tofu and would break easily.
Initially, it made her angry, but after hearing it often, she stopped taking it to heart.
No matter what, she couldn’t resolve the issue.
Right now, talking wouldn’t help. She just hoped there wouldn’t be any bleeding.
"Did it hurt? Let me see." The man watched Chu Xiaoqiao continuously rubbing her nose and reached out to touch her nose.
"No need, I’m fine." Chu Xiaoqiao backed away two steps, her face turning red. She wasn’t going to accept such intimate actions.
"What are you avoiding for? It’s just a look, it won’t cost you anything." The man directly grabbed the woman who was backing away. It wasn’t like he hadn’t touched her before; why was she still so shy?
"Mentor, if your partner sees this, there will be misunderstandings. What about me?" Chu Xiaoqiao spoke calmly.
"Who said I have a partner?" The man was shocked. He wasn’t aware of such a thing.
"Whether you have one or not has nothing to do with me. I’m just saying, men and women should maintain their distance. It’s better to watch your words and actions." Chu Xiaoqiao didn’t want to discuss this issue with him but was thinking about what would be better to do.
"Are you afraid people will say you’re trying to seduce me?" The man lightly stroked her nose tip with his thumb.
Indeed, it was quite a bump; her nose tip was red, looking very cute under the light.
"Mentor, please have some self-respect." Chu Xiaoqiao’s face turned crimson. This flirt was shameless. How could such intimate actions be done casually?
Chu Xiaoqiao genuinely didn’t know what to say, because this kind of result was really not what she wanted.
"Silly girl, do you truly not understand, or are you pretending not to?" The man felt helpless. Though he never said anything directly, he also hadn’t said he didn’t like her, had he?
So why was she reacting this way? It really made him unsure of what to do.
"Understand what? Aren’t we supposed to go see those people? Aren’t we leaving?" Chu Xiaoqiao avoided his gaze, not daring to look into the man’s eyes.
She felt guilty, even though she hadn’t done anything, nor did she want to do anything; better go observe first.
"We’re already here, or did you think I stopped just to be a meat wall?" The man looked at the woman playing dumb, then let it go, allowing her more time to think.
Seeing she didn’t want to discuss further, he didn’t force her.
"Oh." Chu Xiaoqiao’s heart skipped a beat, absentmindedly responding with a single word.
"Watch closely, make sure you don’t bump into anything again." The man glanced at her before opening the door, gesturing for her to follow him inside.
This was one of their bases; they were working for the higher-ups, and of course, they had to do it well.
In many situations, they couldn’t do much more beyond what was required, but as long as it wasn’t illegal, they had privileges to handle some matters.
