Time Space: the Male Villain Has the Ability To Read Minds Chapter 103: The Villainous Boss Likes Her the Most!
But when Pei Tiantian was giving orders, she always had that soft, sweet demeanor, making Pei Zihao reluctant to get angry.
However, gradually, Pei Zihao developed a conditioned reflex of fear towards Pei Tiantian’s words.
After Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu finished their homework for the day, they gave it to Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian for correction.
“Brother Tianyu, you got all the classical poems right today, and your math score was 70%!”
Pei Tiantian exclaimed.
Pei Tianyu’s progress was truly remarkable; at this rate, in a few months, he’d easily reach over 80 in math.
Pei Tianyu smiled shyly, “It’s all thanks to my little sister’s excellent teaching.”
Pei Tiantian walked up to Pei Tianyu, reached out her arms for him to hug her, and then affectionately rubbed her chubby cheek against his handsome profile, encouraging him in his ear, “Second cousin, keep it up, keep it up!”
Seeing this, Gu Rong’s pupils constricted instantly, a faint sense of loss rising in his heart.
Although he knew Pei Tianyu was Pei Tiantian’s brother, and their intimacy was normal, seeing Pei Tiantian cheek-to-cheek with someone else made Gu Rong realize he wasn’t the only one.
Gu Rong’s eyes darkened.
He didn’t know why he had this inexplicable possessiveness.
He only knew that such thoughts were wrong.
Pei Zihao quickly craned his neck to see how his homework was graded.
Pei Tiantian got off Pei Tianyu and showed him Pei Zihao’s homework.
Pei Zihao then discovered that he had misspelled three characters in the ancient poem and had gotten the first math problem wrong, with an accuracy rate of only 60%.
“How could I get the first question wrong when it was so easy? Oh no, I misread the question!”
Pei Zihao wailed, holding his notebook.
“It’s okay, Zihao-gege, just be more careful next time,”
Pei Tiantian comforted him by patting his head with her chubby little hand.
Pei Zihao was touched and hugged Pei Tiantian, rubbing his face against his sister’s chubby cheek and giving her head a gentle rub with his big hand.
“Big cousin, be gentle, my ponytail is going to come undone!”
Pei Tiantian complained, angrily fixing her hair with her hands.
Pei Zihao obediently put Pei Tiantian down, sniffed, and said, “Sis, I’ve lost weight these past few days because of studying.”
Pei Tiantian squinted, looking meaningfully at Pei Zihao’s round face.
“Brother, what do you want to say?”
“I…I want to rest for a weekend, how about next weekend?”
Pei Zihao said pitifully, “I haven’t been out to play for so long, I’m going crazy.”
Pei Tiantian looked at Pei Zihao, then at Pei Tianyu, both of them with undisguised longing in their eyes.
Pei Tiantian pondered for a moment, thinking that studying shouldn’t be too intense, lest it cause rebellion.
She said, “Okay.”
Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu cheered when they heard Pei Tiantian’s words.
Pei Tiantian smiled happily as well.
Her two silly brothers were so easily satisfied.
Gu Rong silently lowered his eyes, his emotions unreadable.
After tutoring the two, Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong went out.
Gu Rong originally wanted to go home today, but unexpectedly, it suddenly started pouring rain that night, so Gu Rong stayed and slept in the same room as Pei Tiantian.
Because of the cold weather, the blanket on Pei Tiantian’s bed had changed from a thin blanket to a thick floral quilt.
After washing up, Pei Tiantian read some medical books for a while before quickly rolling into bed, curling up into a small ball on the inside of the bed.
Noticing that the blanket next to her had been pulled back, Pei Tiantian turned her head and smiled sweetly at Gu Rong, “Goodnight, Brother Gu Rong.”
But the villainous boss not only didn’t nod, but seemed a little disappointed, even with slightly red eyes.
Pei Tiantian noticed this and suddenly held her breath.
She had already apologized to Gu Rong, so why was he still unhappy?
Pei Tiantian frowned, puzzled, and cautiously asked, “Brother Gu Rong, what’s wrong? Is something bothering you?”
Suddenly, Pei Tiantian’s eyes widened as the villainous boss’s face suddenly magnified many times in front of her, and then touched her cheek.
The soft touch left Pei Tiantian stunned.
It wasn’t until Gu Rong got up, sat on the bed, pursed his lips, and looked at Pei Tiantian with a wronged expression that she realized what was happening.
Pei Tiantian touched her chubby cheeks, not quite understanding, and blurted out, “Brother Gu Rong, don’t you hate it when we touch cheek-to-cheek?”
Gu Rong’s eyes were somewhat puzzled, as if to say, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Pei Tiantian frowned and pondered for a moment.
Could it be that she had misunderstood the villain from the beginning?
So the villain ignored her this morning not because she was angry about cheek-to-cheek contact.
Was she overthinking things?
After hearing Pei Tiantian’s thoughts, Gu Rong remained silent for a moment.
If he hadn’t lost his memory, he truly had no recollection.
When had he ignored Pei Tiantian this morning?
How could he possibly ignore Pei Tiantian?
How could Pei Tiantian think he would ignore her?
Gu Rong felt terribly misunderstood, and a tightness gripped his chest.
Suddenly, a smile bloomed on Pei Tiantian’s face, her eyes crinkling as she looked at him. “Brother Gu Rong, I know! You like being close to me, right?”
Gu Rong looked at her expressionlessly. He hadn’t wanted to answer her because he was shy, but he was also afraid of being misunderstood by Pei Tiantian.
After a while, Gu Rong nodded almost imperceptibly, his ears turning red, his eyes darting around.
“Brother Gu Rong, so you were shy this morning, not because you disliked me, right?”
Gu Rong nodded, forcing a smile.
“So, Brother Gu Rong, you actually like me the most, right?”
Gu Rong continued to nod, forcing a smile, but after nodding twice, he suddenly froze.
He noticed Pei Tiantian’s sly smile and subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but his head nodded uncontrollably.
Seeing that Gu Rong had actually nodded, Pei Tiantian’s grape-like eyes widened in surprise, her heart filled with sweetness.
The villainous boss had admitted that he liked her the most—she knew it!
Gu Rong’s face was as red as a ripe shrimp, completely unlike his usual calm and composed self.
Seeing that Pei Tiantian was about to say something to tease him, Gu Rong quickly got up and turned off the only light in the room.
With a “snap,” the room was instantly plunged into darkness.
Pei Tiantian could no longer see Gu Rong’s embarrassed expression. She clicked her tongue regretfully, and after a while, whispered, “Goodnight, Brother Gu Rong.”
Soon, the little dumpling beside her began to breathe softly.
In the darkness, Gu Rong listened to the sound of the rain outside, but his eyes were bright.
After an unknown amount of time, he silently mouthed “Goodnight” before slowly closing his eyes.
