Miao Yifu was extremely nervous for no reason when faced with such a lazy and beautiful woman. He swallowed his saliva and coughed. "Yes."
Kang Xiaoqiao's long eyelashes trembled when she heard this. Then, she slowly opened her big eyes and looked at the red-faced boy in front of her. Her eyes swept past him.
Kang Xiaoqiao had naturally investigated Miao Yifu. Since he was young, he did not stand out in any way, nor did he have any major flaws. He was well-behaved. However, it was worth noting that this person was very cautious at such a young age.
Although he did not have any outstanding results, he had handled all the tasks entrusted to him by his teachers, family, and friends. It could be said that this person was a typical good person.
In fact, from Kang Xiaoqiao's point of view, it was not easy to be a good person. This meant that this person was very talented in mediation and handling matters.
After Kang Xiaoqiao looked at him, she said faintly, "I don't think we know each other."
After a short period of adjustment, Miao Yifu said, "I've always heard Shanshan mention you."
What he meant was that he had been paying attention to her in private. Kang Xiaoqiao narrowed her eyes and said, "Yue Shanshan?"
"You're paying so much attention to me, could it be--"
After saying that, she deliberately leaned forward and said, "Could it be that you like me?"
Miao Yifu took a long time to take a sip of tea, but before he could swallow it, he started coughing. Cough, cough, cough--
His face turned even redder from the choking. After a while, he said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Kang Xiaoqiao pursed her lips and took a sip of tea before saying, "I don't have anything else at home. The tea is enough. You can drink it slowly."
Miao Yifu felt even more awkward when he heard that. He said dryly, "Thank you, thank you."
Then, after taking another sip of tea, he said, "Actually, actually, we've met before."
"Oh?" Kang Xiaoqiao looked curious...
Miao Yifu's face turned even redder as he said, "At that time, I was actually not far away. That time when Shanshan went to greet all of you."
When Kang Xiaoqiao heard that, she nodded in realization. "Oh, that time. Could it be that after that time, you fell in love with me at first sight?"
What?
Miao Yifu was stunned again when he was asked that question. He was completely stunned. He had thought of many possibilities, but the only thing he did not expect was that it was actually like this. His heart inexplicably beat faster.
When Kang Xiaoqiao saw him like this, the corner of her mouth curled up. "Student Miao, what's with your expression? Did I say something wrong?"
"If you didn't like me and fell in love with me at first sight, why did you send people to my side to inquire about everything about me?"
"Because of this, I've suffered quite a lot. Your sister scolded me in public. Student Miao, don't you have something to say about this?"
When he heard this, Miao Yifu was stunned again. Just now, Kang Xiaoqiao was still as warm as spring to him, but in the blink of an eye, it had turned into a freezing cold, making him unable to regain his senses for a moment.
At this moment, he came to a sudden realization. He had said that even if Kang Xiaoqiao did not hate him, she should not have been so amiable.
After he thought this through, he took a deep breath. However, there was a trace of disappointment in his heart. It was so obvious.
However, he quickly straightened his attitude and said very seriously, "I'm sorry to have frightened Miss Kang."
"Miss Kang, you must be a sensible person. Let's not beat around the bush. I'll get straight to the point."
"Miss Kang looks very similar to my second sister. I heard that my second sister has already come to visit you?"
Kang Xiaoqiao pursed her lips and drank a mouthful of tea lazily. "More than that?"
"Your second sister treated me with great hospitality and even went to have a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, your second sister's personality is really not likable."
Miao Yifu's hands tightened when he heard that. After a while, he exhaled and said, "Kang family, how is the Kang family?"
Kang Xiaoqiao, who was still holding the tea lid, was stunned when she heard that. Then, she looked up at Miao Yifu and saw that Miao Yifu was nervously clenching his fists. He said, "That, that, I'm sorry."
Kang Xiaoqiao stopped smiling when she saw that. She put the teacup on the table and then put her hand on her lap. She looked at Miao Yifu seriously and said, "Why are you sorry?"
Miao Yifu bit his lower lip and said after a long while, "Actually, I had this feeling when I first saw you."
"You not only look like my second sister, but you also look very similar to my father. So, I always wanted to know more about you."
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at him a few times and said, "You know?"
Miao Yifu lowered his head and didn't say anything. Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "How do you know?"
"As far as I know, Zhen Aiyin treats you very well, better than her biological son."
The word 'biological' pierced into Miao Yifu's heart like a thorn, causing his face to turn pale. After a few seconds, he said self-deprecatingly, "She does treat me better than my sisters, but there are some things in this world that can not be changed."
After saying that, he exhaled and looked up at Kang Xiaoqiao. "You must have suffered a lot these years and suffered a lot of grievances. Do you hate me very much?"
Kang Xiaoqiao was stunned when she heard this. Then, she looked out of the window. The original owner knew that she probably hated him. With that kind of personality, she probably wanted to tear Miao Yifu apart. However, as Kang Xiaoqiao herself, she did not have such thoughts.
Therefore, she calmed herself down and said, "What does it matter if I hate you or not?"
"I am a Kang after all. Compared to a daughter with the surname Miao, it is more important to be a son with the surname Miao, isn't it?"
As soon as she said this, the living room fell into silence again.
"I'm sorry--"
"You came to see me just to say this?"
...
The two of them spoke at the same time. Kang Xiaoqiao couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. Then, she picked up the teacup again. As she used the teacup lid to stir the tea, she said with a smile, "Speaking of which, the two of us are quite fated."
"Being born at the same time in the same year, month, and day, this kind of fate is the only one in the world."
Miao Yifu glanced at Kang Xiaoqiao, then lowered his head, picked up the teacup, and said, "Indeed."
There was silence again.
Kang Xiaoqiao felt that this was the only time in her entire life that she had truly had an awkward conversation.
This kind of feeling was truly extraordinary.
Thus, she broke the silence and said, "Student Miao Yifu, you've come to my house to look for me several times. Could it be that you're here to apologize to me?"
Hearing this, Miao Yifu raised his head and said, "I know that the words 'sorry' are too light for the suffering you've suffered, but I... I feel that I still have to..."
Before he could finish, Kang Xiaoqiao interrupted, "No, I mean Miao Yifu, I think that rather than saying sorry to me, it's better for you to say that you like me to be more realistic."
"Ah?" Miao Yifu was completely shocked...
