Chapter 549: I Never Expected This When Dating

Boss Cutie

Little White Dove immediately put on the Bluetooth earbud. "I really like it, thank you. It fits perfectly, I'll put it to good use and wear it every day."

He flashed Sheng Xinyi a dazzling smile, and seeing how much the person she liked treasured the gift she'd given him, her heart felt heavy with happiness.

Sheng Xinyi shook her head at Little White Dove. "You don't need to wear it every day."

"Why not?"

"Wearing earbuds all the time isn't good for your hearing." Sheng Xinyi's eyes rested gently on Little White Dove. "Just put it on whenever you need to."

Hearing that, Little White Dove's heart turned sweet.

Are all girls this thoughtful?

She was even worrying about his hearing.

So this is what sweet romance feels like. It's practically sickeningly sweet.

Little White Dove raised his hand and ruffled Sheng Xinyi's hair. "Thank you."

Sheng Xinyi basked in the head-pat, her shoulders trembling slightly. Her pretty, delicate little face was still flushed pink, shy and bashful.

"What was Senior Chen Ge about to say just now?"

At her bringing it up, Little White Dove's hand, still stroking her hair, paused. But he still mustered his courage and asked, "Sheng Xinyi, your family's pretty well-off, aren't they?"

Sheng Xinyi was taken aback.

She saw how nervous Little White Dove looked.

Then she bit her lip lightly. "Does that matter?"

"I'm afraid…"

"My parents are very open-minded. My family's really just an ordinary two-income household, so you don't need to feel any pressure. As long as I like them, my parents will like them too." Sheng Xinyi smiled sweetly.

"Even if they objected, I'd still have the heart to keep going with you."

Faced with Sheng Xinyi's declaration, Little White Dove felt his own doubts were laughable.

When a girl was willing to throw caution to the wind, what was he being so timid for?

Besides, Sheng Xinyi had said her family was just an ordinary two-income household.

It wasn't all that legendary. Those rumors were probably just that—rumors.

Little White Dove felt much more relaxed and at ease. He lowered his head and kissed Sheng Xinyi's forehead.

It was only a light kiss, but Little White Dove could feel the girl's skin, and he was both captivated and embarrassed.

He was even afraid she was made of glass and would shatter.

The kiss was so very cautious.

The sweetness on his lips left Little White Dove's mood wonderful and excited.

"Me too."

"I'll walk on with you properly. I hope you're my last."

"Goodnight. Get to sleep early tonight."

Little White Dove's actions had already made Sheng Xinyi happy enough.

She simply couldn't suppress her elation.

She smiled like a flower, nodding again and again. "You get to sleep early too."

Little White Dove walked Sheng Xinyi to the bottom of the girls' dormitory.

People were coming and going, and quite a few girls had already noticed.

Plenty of strange looks were cast their way, and some even whispered among themselves.

"No way? Are those two really going out?"

"So the earlier rumors weren't rumors. Could Sheng Xinyi really be interested in Chen Ge?"

"I remember Chen Ge's family isn't well-off. What does Sheng Xinyi even see in him!"

After all, in most people's eyes, Sheng Xinyi was beautiful and rich, and she had no shortage of admirers.

Among those suitors, Little White Dove really didn't rank. His qualifications weren't all that outstanding.

His biggest shining point was probably that he had a formidable brother—Jiang Muye.

Beyond that, people didn't have much of an impression of him.

But now Little White Dove and Sheng Xinyi were stepping out together, and that was enough to surprise a lot of people.

It was the first time Little White Dove had ever been stared at by so many people.

Yet Sheng Xinyi was very brave. Even with people watching, she unhesitatingly took Little White Dove's hand.

Their fingers interlocked.

Feeling the girl's soft fingers, all of Little White Dove's timidity vanished.

He too was open and unashamed.

So what if people are watching? So what if people are gossiping?

He was Sheng Xinyi's boyfriend.

That was already an unchangeable fact.

Sheng Xinyi was displeased with those whispers. On what basis did they get to draw conclusions so casually and make such unfriendly noises?

They didn't even know Senior Chen Ge.

Senior Chen Ge was obviously so wonderful—how could there be any question of whether they matched?

"Senior Chen Ge, don't mind what they're saying." All Sheng Xinyi cared about now was Little White Dove. "Don't be angry."

Just as Sheng Xinyi was getting a bit unhappy at the others mocking Little White Dove like that, Little White Dove suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms.

"Them saying that is just because I've got a really outstanding girlfriend. Why would I be angry? I don't even have time to be proud."

"Don't worry about me. Hearing those unpleasant voices, I do feel a little down."

"But then again, those voices can also spur me to grow properly, let me know I still have room to improve. I'll work hard."

Seeing Little White Dove's calm, unassuming manner, Sheng Xinyi's mood cleared up as well.

She just loved seeing Senior Chen Ge so optimistic and upbeat, like a little sun, someone who couldn't be knocked down by anyone.

He never gave her any negative energy.

Just for that alone, Sheng Xinyi felt she hadn't chosen the wrong person.

A faint smile spread across Sheng Xinyi's face. Immersed in Little White Dove's scent, her little face glowed red.

"Okay, let's both work hard together!"

Little White Dove dotingly nuzzled Sheng Xinyi's little face with his nose. "Got it. Alright, go on up."

Though reluctant to let go, Little White Dove still had to release Sheng Xinyi.

Sheng Xinyi gazed at Little White Dove with longing, turning back at every step.

Little White Dove waved breezily, telling her to hurry up.

"Goodnight!" Sheng Xinyi smiled sweetly and started running upstairs.

The other girls watching were completely stunned by the scene.

A moment ago it was just speculation, but now, seeing Little White Dove and Sheng Xinyi interact like that—they were definitely a couple.

So they really were together!

Little White Dove paid no mind to what those people thought. Under everyone's astonished gazes, he instinctively turned and left.

He was still carrying his good mood, cheerful all the way.

His arms still held the lingering fragrant scent of his girlfriend. How wonderful.

The next day, at night.

"Mom, why'd you suddenly want to sing karaoke?" Leng Ruoli followed Xiang Shan into the karaoke place, puzzled.

Xiang Shan said to Leng Ruoli, "It's been so long since I came. I'm in a bad mood—won't you come sing with your mom?"

Leng Ruoli muttered, "I will, but why not invite Muye too? More people would make it livelier."

"If I invite him, what mood would I have left for singing?" Xiang Shan's face darkened, a bit displeased.

Leng Ruoli looked at Xiang Shan's expression with some surprise. This was clearly still a spat with Jiang Muye.

"Mom! Did you do something to let Muye down and make him angry?" Leng Ruoli shook Xiang Shan's hand.
