She was almost knocked into his arms, her little face pressed against his heart, and she could clearly hear Jing Ling's heartbeat, so powerful.
But this time, Wen Momo was extremely sure that it was Brother Jingling who pushed her into his arms, not her who jumped on her.
Wen Momo was caught off guard and pressed against his chest. Her eyes were wide open and she had even forgotten to breathe. It seemed that she was still unable to react. Why did her brother suddenly behave like this...
The moment Jing Ling pressed Wen Momo into her arms, she looked forward, her face sullen, her tough and cold outlines softening little by little. Jing Ling slightly opened her thin lips, and finally said coldly: "I don't hate it. Touched by you."
Wen Momo was lying in his arms. She had nowhere to put her little hands, and she didn't dare to put them around. She just let them hang hesitantly on his waist. The moment she heard Jing Ling's words, Wen Momo's whole body... Everyone was a little stunned.
She didn't seem to be able to react to Jing Ling's meaning immediately, and was more in a daze. After a while, she finally blinked her wet eyelashes gently and raised her head from his arms.
Jing Ling just lowered his head slightly to look at her.
Wen Momo was very obedient when she looked at people, especially because she had just cried, her eyes were slightly red, and her eyes were filled with moisture. No matter how she looked, she looked pitiful and painful.
But as soon as he lowered his head, his chin touched Wen Momo's forehead. Wen Momo immediately lowered her head nervously, her eyes turning randomly, her eyelashes fluttering, she was very nervous.
"Wen Momo." Jing Ling hugged her, looked down at her drooped head, and suddenly called her.
Jing Ling rarely calls her by her full name, so when Leng Buding heard Jing Ling call her like this, Wen Momo became even more flustered. She uttered a short monosyllabic "um", and the last sound was pinched deep in her throat. It doesn’t work.
"You gave gifts to people in the cafeteria today, right?"
Wen Momo was still lying in his arms nervously thinking about random things, but suddenly she heard Jing Lingpo asking her questions in an interrogating tone. She was stunned for a while before she reacted slowly. Jing Ling nodded blankly and admitted what he was talking about.
But after Jing Ling saw her nodding, his face became even colder and he let go of her.
Wen Momo raised her head and looked at Jing Ling, mustered up her courage, and asked stumblingly: "Brother... why are you ignoring me in the academy?"
"You did a good thing yourself." Jing Ling said coldly and took her hand towards Ji Mansion, as if she didn't want to say anything else to Wen Momo.
But Wen Momo was pulled away by him inexplicably, feeling confused and aggrieved, "Brother, please tell me clearly what I did..."
"You can give a gift to someone you don't know, what do you think?"
"Yu Ran gave me the sweet glutinous rice dumplings to eat, and I gave him a bag of candy. Isn't that a form of reciprocity?"
When Jing Ling heard that Wen Momo knew the other person's name so well, he suddenly stopped, turned around, stared at Wen Momo with cold eyes, and said, "You can't resist temptation so much? Others I’ll give you some sweetness and you’ll be nice to me?”
Wen Momo was inexplicably scolded by him. She rolled her eyes even more blankly and whispered: "Brother, what are you talking about..."
She was obviously just reciprocating as a courtesy, so why did her brother say something different from what she thought...
