Chapter 264: Chapter 264 Volunteering 2_1

Mrs. Xia nodded and smiled gently, "Mom just wants to make sure she can clear her schedule to personally take Bao’er to fill out her college applications."

"Mom, there’s no need to trouble you with this, we’ll take her," said the brothers and sisters-in-law as they started to argue among themselves, each one trying to get a word in—it couldn’t have been more lively.

"Everyone shut up! I said I’m taking her, and I’ll take her. If anyone dares to say otherwise, I will lose my temper!" Seeing this, Mrs. Xia immediately slammed the table and glared at the circle of people around it.

It was infuriating how everyone was trying to take her daughter away from her!

Threatened, everyone finally dared not say anything more.

Xia Ningxing was between laughter and tears.

Was her personal charm really that strong?

After eating at the Xia family, the first thing Lu Tingli did when he got back home was to take out the love letter he had received earlier.

He didn’t immediately dispose of the love letter; instead, he opened it. But as soon as he saw the words inside expressing admiration for Xia Ningxing, his brows and eyes immediately darkened, as if frosted over.

That uncomfortable feeling from before suddenly bubbled up again, like acidic bubbles bursting at the bottom of his heart.

Uncomfortable!

Extremely uncomfortable!

It was like someone had taken something that was his!

Lu Tingli narrowed his eyes at the love letter, then lifted his distinct, beautiful fingers and coldly tore the love letter to shreds, tossing it into the trash can beside him.

This made him feel somewhat better in his heart.

It took him a while to snap back to reality, as his usual calm and composed self returned to his mind. He looked at the scraps of paper in the trash can and recalled what he had just done.

His brows immediately furrowed deeply, forming a "川" shape.

Why did he tear up the love letter that a boy had written to Xia Ningxing?

Why did he feel uncomfortable, was it jealousy?

Could it be that he liked Xia Ningxing?

After asking himself three questions, Lu Tingli fell silent.

He remained motionless, not even fluttering his eyelashes or pupils, as he sat at his desk for a long time.

It seemed like an eternity before Lu Tingli finally moved, relaxing his back against the chair. His sensual lips curved into a warm smile.

Yes, he had to admit that he liked Xia Ningxing. That’s why he was unhappy and felt jealous when he saw other boys sending her love letters.

Childhood sweethearts for ten years, he wasn’t sure exactly when he had started liking her, but that moment of jealousy made him truly realize that he did like her!

And he liked her very, very much!

He was always someone who made quick and decisive decisions; since he liked her, then he had to have her and make her his.

Once he came back this time, he would carefully plan a confession, to tell her his feelings.

Girls always like romance.

So, he wanted to prepare the setting for his confession and pick out a gift, not just confess hastily and empty-handed.

At this moment, however, Lu Tingli, smiling warmly, could not anticipate that his confession would happen under such terrible circumstances...

But, it would be memorable for a lifetime!

Three days later, on the day to fill out college applications at school.

Although Xia Ningxing was in Mrs. Xia’s car, the rest of the Xia family followed along, and so did Lu Tingli.

Xia Ningxing: "..."

To those in the know, it was clear they were going to fill out applications, but those who didn’t know might think they were there to pick a fight with the school!
