LOVE SO SWEET - Chapter 687 - 687 That Person is Gone

687 That Person is Gone

Fu Chen sucked in a deep breath when he felt Bai Xi Xi’s soft and warm finger against his lips.

His eyes shifted to the finger on his lips, causing his heartbeat to accelerate.

Fu Chen raised his eyes to look at Bai Xi Xi again, but the girl was too busy to keep her eyes on the road to look at the person who was following them.

Because they were too close to each other, Fu Chen was able to smell her sweet scent each time that he breathe in.

Her clear skin and long lashes were visible to him. He had always sat beside her from the day he transferred to Y City High School. But this was the first time that they had been this close.

His heart was chaotic. His neck and face felt especially hot.

“He’s coming,” Bai Xi Xi whispered.

Her words snapped him out of his trance. Fu Chen followed Bai Xi Xi’s line of gaze as his ears picked up the sound of footsteps.

There were small ventilation holes in the wall. The two of them peeked through the small gap to see the person who has been following them.

…..

“Shit! I’ve lost them!”

The familiar voice stunned him.

Fu Chen narrowed his eyes to focus on the person on the other side of the wall. His eyes widened in surprise when he finally recognized the other party.

Who else could it be other than Jian Chi?

But, what was he doing? Why would he follow them around?

Fu Chen had a lot of questions. But at this time, he could only choose to keep his mouth shut. First, they have to wait until Jian Chi left.

Jian Chi continued to pace around back and forth. His eyes swept around the surroundings as he tried to figure out which path did Fu Chen and Bai Xi Xi had taken.

Suddenly, his eyes shifted to the wall where Bai Xi XI and Fu Chen hid.

His brow furrowed. Jian Chi walked closer to the wall, wanting to check if the people he was looking for were hiding.

However, the phone in his pocket rang just as Jian Chi was about to approach.

An irritated look appeared on his face. Jian Chi pulled out his phone from his pocket before pressing it against his ear. He was listening to the other party for a while. After a brief conversation, Jian Chi ended the phone call before he turned around to leave.

Still, the two of them did not get out of their hiding place, worried that Jian Chi might be waiting for them somewhere.

Fu Chen shifted his eyes at the finger on his lips again. He suddenly had this urge of wanting to lick his lips. Fu Chen suppressed the urge and looked at Bai Xi Xi again, wanting to speak.

At the same time, Bai Xi Xi turned to look at him.

Their gazes met and time seemed to have stopped for them.

Bai Xi Xi’s eyes widened as she was not expecting Fu Chen to suddenly turn around to look at her. It was then that she realized that she had her finger on Fu Chen’s lips for a long time.

Still, she did not quickly retract her hand away. Her gaze fell on the mole under his eyes. Bai Xi Xi thought that his mole looked quite attractive.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Bai Xi Xi was surprised by her thoughts.

Subconsciously, she pulled her hand away quickly and took a step back. Bai Xi Xi clenched her shirt tightly. She suddenly thought that her finger which was on Fu Chen’s lips earlier felt a little too warm. Even as she was gripping her shirt tight, she could still feel Fu Chen’s lips against her finger.

Her head was in a mess.

Bai Xi Xi took her time to compose her thoughts before turning to Fu Chen again. “Sorry.” She cleared her throat before peeking at Fu Chen’s expression again.

“It’s alright.” Fu Chen quickly forced himself to act casually. He looked at the empty road and spoke, “I guess that person is gone.”

“Uh-huh.” Bai Xi Xi nodded. “We…” She pointed to the street. “We should go now.”

Without waiting for Fu Chen to respond, Bai Xi Xi turned around to leave.

The atmosphere around them was quiet as the two of them took their time to compose themselves.

Then, it was Fu Chen who broke the silence between them. He looked at Bai Xi Xi and spoke, “That… why was Jian Chi following us? What did he want?”

Bai Xi Xi glanced at Fu Chen, knowing that Jian Chi did not like this boy. She could not help but wonder if Jian Chi was following Fu Chen around, hoping that he could mess up with Fu Chen.

But then, Bai Xi Xi recalled her encounter with Jian Chi earlier at the school’s staircase. She suddenly wondered if Jian Chi was following her because of that incident.

Jian Chi was complaining that she was too close to Fu Chen. However, Bai Xi Xi did not have the time to get along with Jian Chi.

Could it be that Jian Chi was upset because of that?

Who did Jian Chi want to mess up with?

Bai Xi Xi seemed to be deep in her thoughts.

Then, she realized that Jian Chi had seen her and Fu Chen together. This will surely make Jian Chi unhappy, right?

Suddenly, Bai Xi Xi could already imagine that Jian Chi would create more trouble for her.

“Class Monitor?” Fu Chen called when the girl has been quiet around him for a long time.

His voice snapped Bai Xi Xi out of her trance. Then, she recalled the questions that Fu Chen had asked her earlier.”

“I don’t know,” Bai Xi Xi said. “But, it’s better for us to avoid Jian Chi before he would make trouble.”

Fu Chen watched Bai Xi Xi silently. He had a feeling that Bai Xi Xi knew something but did not want to tell him anything.

He thought that Jian Chi might be following Bai Xi Xi around, wanting to make trouble for her. Fu Chen suddenly thought that it was good that he decided to walk Bai Xi Xi home.
