Chapter 1170: Chapter 1149: Brother Sister!

"You made me fall out with my classmates!"

The insanely handsome men just shouldn’t be taken out for walks!

"How did I make you fall out with your classmates?"

Watching the little girl angrily shut down her computer and glare at her, Moriya’s heart softened and he reached out to pat her head. His brows, however, unknowingly furrowed bit by bit, "Could it be that day I treated your roommate to dinner, I didn’t let them eat their fill, or is it because I’m not handsome enough, so they think you’re bragging?"

Apart from that, Moriya couldn’t think of any other reason why the usually carefree and likable little girl would say something like this.

"Not handsome enough? Brother Sandy, if you’re considered not handsome, then are there any handsome men left in the world?"

Damn it, with a belly full of inexplicable anger and not knowing how to vent it, "It’s precisely because you’re too handsome that I fell out with my classmates!"

Moriya: "..."

Is it a crime to be too handsome?

"What exactly happened?"

Moriya cleared his throat and asked in a deep voice, "Could it be that someone has taken a liking to me?"

"How did you know?"

Upon hearing his words, Nicole almost screamed out loud. She really began to suspect that her Brother Sandy had clairvoyance and clairaudience, to be able to guess that.

"So someone really has taken a liking to me? Which blind woman is it?"

As Nicole uttered that sentence, Moriya’s brows furrowed even more deeply, and he casually pulled a chair over next to Nicole and sat down, "Didn’t you say that two of them already have boyfriends? That girl called Melissa, didn’t she insist that you and I are an item, so surely it couldn’t be her looking at me, which leaves only those who are married, right?"

So, he truly was baffled!

"And you’re still talking about it, Jasmine’s misunderstanding—you didn’t even explain!"

Remembering how Melissa kept saying ’one of us’ and ’under the thumb of a wife,’ Nicole felt embarrassed. Even thinking about it now made her face feel hot.

"Explain what?"

Moriya knew what she was getting at but pretended not to understand on the surface, "Does our relationship need an explanation?"

"Of course, we are clear about what our relationship is, after all, we’ve grown up together since we were little and share everything. But others don’t know, they think we’re that kind of relationship!"

As she spoke, Nicole’s cheeks inexplicably began to heat up again, and she slightly lowered her head, "Because of this, Jasmine is convinced that you and I have a thing, and now so many classmates are saying I have a boyfriend. With all this commotion, how am I supposed to find the last love of my adolescence? I haven’t even had a single relationship yet! I had three months of opportunity, but with this rumor, all the boys who were interested are now too scared to try anything!"

"Is this why you’re at odds with your classmates?"

Obviously, Moriya’s face turned a few shades darker.

"Of course not, but this is about my reputation, after all. I’m someone who wants to be in a relationship. Now, if I date someone else, I’ll definitely be called a fickle woman!"

Nicole said indignantly, but realizing her words became more and more jumbled and unclear, she felt confused by his questioning and could hardly pinpoint what exactly made her at odds with her classmates.

"Brother Sandy, why didn’t you explain at the time? If you had explained, Jasmine wouldn’t have misunderstood!"

"Why should I explain?"

Moriya just sat opposite her, looking down at that slightly flushed and somewhat uneasy face, and chuckled, "I didn’t see it as a misunderstanding!"

Why should he explain?

I didn’t think she was misunderstanding at all!

With a buzz, Nicole Thompson felt as if a string in her mind had snapped. Suddenly, she stood up from the chair, eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at Moriya Sandy, "Brother Sandy, what do you mean by that?"

"The literal meaning!"

The man’s response came with a light, chuckling voice.

"What’s the literal meaning? I don’t understand!"

It wasn’t that she couldn’t understand; she was afraid to understand. If it really was what she thought, it would be too incredible, because she had never considered it!

"The literal meaning is, your classmate Melissa Tanner didn’t misunderstand our situation, so there’s no need for me to explain!"

As Moriya Sandy spoke, he stood up, bending forward to level his eyes with hers, "Because in my consciousness, we are indeed in the kind of relationship she described, so there’s no need for me to explain it!"

We are indeed in that kind of relationship she described!

We are indeed in that kind of relationship she described!

Nicole’s head buzzed with these words. It was just a line, which she had seen countless times watching dramas, yet why did these words from Brother Sandy’s mouth make her heart race uncontrollably with panic and an inexplicable excitement?

My goodness!

Nicole Thompson, you’ve been too deep into the dramas you watch lately, always fantasizing about being the female lead and then being confessed to by a Gabriel Shaw-like deity. Now even a jest from Brother Sandy got you hearing that tone!

"No, no, I need to take a cold shower!"

Moriya Sandy: "..."

"I haven’t done anything; why would you need a cold shower?"

A twitch at the corner of Moriya Sandy’s eyes, he had imagined a myriad of possible reactions she might have to his confession, but never this one, "Nicole, taking a cold shower is generally something men need to do!"

"Why’s that?"

Without thinking, Nicole retorted at once, "Who says women can’t take cold showers? Is it that only men need to cool down, and women don’t?"

Moriya Sandy: "..."

"You’re taking a cold shower because you need to cool down?"

Moriya Sandy was once again speechless at this young lady.

"Of course, otherwise why would I take a cold shower for no good reason? I don’t have a masochistic streak!"

Moriya Sandy: "..."

Indeed, one shouldn’t think too dirty while communicating with a pure little bunny. For her, taking a cold shower was about cooling down, not about quelling desires!

"No, no, I need to cool down; I..."

"Nicole, what you need to do now is look into my eyes, touch your conscience, and then ask yourself if your classmate Melissa Tanner really misunderstood our relationship."

Nicole hadn’t finished her sentence when the man’s heavy interruption came, her hand caught in his as he placed it on her chest, "Nicole, you need to seriously and carefully think about our relationship!"

"Our relationship?"

Nicole, struck dumb, looked at Moriya Sandy, "Isn’t it the brother-sister relationship of growing up together, not related by blood but as close as siblings?"
