Chen Qingqing had actually been quite pleased that Xu Ye had come over this late, but at that she folded her arms across her chest at once and said, huffing, "I knew it. You turning up out of nowhere — you were never thinking anything good."

"Heh heh." Xu Ye went to give her hands a couple of strokes, but he had barely got his hand across before she slapped it away.

He had barely finished before he added, "I promise I'll behave tonight. I just want to be with you a bit longer."

Xu Ye hadn't come over the previous weekend.

The truth was that Chen Qingqing wanted more time with Xu Ye too.

After all, once a girl falls for someone she wants nothing more than to be with him twenty-four hours a day, wrapped around him, stuck to him, following him around…
