The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel“s Disguise Chapter 154 Depressing Dressing Sense

Just as Ru's previous belief, Xiao Zhi Ren seemed dangerous... At least, for her heart. But would she let him see her moment of doubt? No way! No matter what young master Ru only knows how to strike back.

He had a satisfied smile on his face when Ru came to his side and started pacing around him in a circle with a pensive look. Her sharp eyes were scrutinizing him from head to toe making him feel a bit strange.

"What are you doing? Stop circling around me, you are making me dizzy." Xiao Zhi Ren stopped her from moving.

Instead of answering him, she lifted her hand to touch his forehead as if checking his temperature. Then she moved to take his pulse and shook her head as if his condition seemed not very optimistic to her. Her hands had wandered off to check his ear, his arms, she even pulled his hair making him gape in disbelief at her... One could say she was inspecting his body to see what was wrong with him. But her style was peculiar like herself.

Xiao Zhi Ren was silently enjoying her every expression. When he saw her staring at his face steadfastly, he said, "I know I am handsome but you don't have to stare for this long."

Suddenly, her eyes flashed as she pointed at him, "Something has gotten into you."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes! Definitely! I can see it in your eyes."

"What can you see?" He questioned with an impish grin.

"That glint of self-obsession." She retorted matter-of-factly.

"How weird! I thought I only had you in my eyes." His face was straight with no-nonsense att.i.tude making Ru feel like there was really a wild fox who took hold of his soul. "It's just that you don't have me in your eyes... Yet..."

Her eyes twitched as she really was lost for words for a second but she chose to disregard his remarks yet again and insisted, "I can't be wrong. I see the same self-obsession in my own eyes every single day."

Now, Xiao Zhi Ren was looking at her disbelievingly. How can a person flaunt his own narcissism with pride and yet not give off the feeling of being obnoxious? He thought only she was capable of doing that.

Rubbing her fluffy hair and while ignoring her scowl, he said, "Then I can only blame you for that. Your conceitedness has finally managed to influence me as well."

s.h.i.+rking all the blame on her shoulders, he even dared to grin before her. How I want to punch that pretty face of yours! Ru growled inwardly but then thought against it. It'd be a pity to ruin such a handsome face.

It was true that they were still bickering but somehow something changed. Xiao Zhi Ren knew that to make her notice him, he would have to become like her; shameless! And oddly shamelessly flirting like this with her was actually more exciting than he thought. How he loved her reactions, he couldn't even describe in words.

"I heard Yuan invited you to his graduation..." He casually said while entering through the electronic gla.s.s doors of the complex.

"Yes. He did."

"You're coming?"

"Mhmm." She hummed in reply.

"Wear something nice to look presentable." Ru's jaw dropped at his parting words. Was he implying that she was not handsome enough? How dare he!

"I always look remarkably handsome. Don't need your reminder!" She shouted behind him. "You're just jealous of my charms."

Without even turning to face her, he yelled back, "I won't be jealous of your depressing dressing sense."

'Depressing? Dressing sense?' Those words rang in her mind like a broken record as she kept glaring at his disappearing back. 'When did her impeccable dressing sense turned into a depressing one? This is an insult! And I won't take it lying down!'
