"Ah, sorry, I shouldn't be talking to a child about these things..."

Xie Shuangning lowered her head to adjust her glasses and quickly apologized.

Actually, this wasn't much different from what Lu Lingyue had imagined. That chubby man was indeed harassing Xie Shuangning at work!

"Why don't you report him to the police?"

Lu Lingyue asked seriously, forgetting to eat her chocolate ice cream.

Xie Shuangning gazed at the distant scenery and spoke with a tone of helplessness, "I've thought about it, but he's my superior. I don't want to lose my job over this. Even if I get him detained, what will happen when he's released? He'll come after me, and then I'll just be fired."

Listening to Xie Shuangning's helpless words, Lu Lingyue seemed to understand why Xie Shuangning had such an aversion to men.

With a pervert like that around, Xie Shuangning had probably developed a stress response, which made her instinctively dislike interacting with men.

At that moment, Lu Lingyue realized her ice cream was about to melt, so she quickly stuck out her pink tongue to lick it.

It seemed like this was the first time Xie Shuangning had shared her thoughts with someone, and she couldn't stop herself.

"Because of this boss, I've become uneasy around other men. Although I know not all men are like him... but..."

Xie Shuangning paused and turned to look at Lu Lingyue. Her purple eyes sparkled as she smiled and then opened her arms to hug Lu Lingyue.

"But in the end, I still prefer girls!"

Lu Lingyue almost dropped her ice cream in surprise, but somehow managed to catch it again.

But once she steadied her ice cream, she realized her little face seemed to be trapped between something soft.

Lu Lingyue: !!!!!

Although they were both girls, should she at least be a little more considerate?! She could hardly breathe!

She almost dropped the ice cream again, but luckily, Xie Shuangning had already released her from the hug.

Finally able to breathe again, Lu Lingyue's face turned red—not because she was embarrassed, but because she had almost suffocated!

She didn't expect this... large chest to be such a deadly weapon! It could really kill someone!

Just as Lu Lingyue was about to protest against what Xie Shuangning had just done, she heard Xie Shuangning speak again.

"Normally, no one listens to me talk about these things. Thank you, little girl."

Xie Shuangning turned her head, and her white cheeks showed a warm smile. Her long black hair blew gently in the wind, and the sunlight bathed her face, giving her smile a golden glow.

At that moment, Lu Lingyue suddenly realized that the once-cold, aloof Xie Shuangning was actually quite cute!

Because she looked at her for a moment too long, Lu Lingyue's ice cream had completely melted.

"Ah, it's melting!"

Xie Shuangning was the first to notice, and she lowered her head to bring her mouth to Lu Lingyue's chocolate ice cream, sticking out her tongue to lick it.

Before Lu Lingyue even realized what was happening, she saw Xie Shuangning leaning in front of her in a strange posture.

This was a posture she'd only seen in certain weird situations!!

As a pure college boy, Lu Lingyue immediately tensed up and quickly said, "How about we share it instead?!"

Xie Shuangning didn't seem to realize anything strange about her actions. After hearing Lu Lingyue's words, she straightened up and handed the vanilla ice cream she had to Lu Lingyue.

"Okay."

Indirect kiss!

As Xie Shuangning handed over the ice cream, she couldn't help but remember that thought, and her face turned red again.

Lu Lingyue had no idea why Xie Shuangning was blushing. She was still focused on thinking about how to help Xie Shuangning regain her trust in men and recover from the trauma of workplace harassment.

But just then, Lu Lingyue's phone, which she had kept in her bag, rang.

"One last kiss~"

Lu Lingyue snapped back to reality and suddenly remembered her sister, Lu Xiaoxue, who was waiting for her at home!

It must be that terrifying woman calling to rush her back home!!

Lu Lingyue had been out for quite a while, and this was her first time going out alone after turning into a little girl!

Lu Xiaoxue must have been worried, so she bombarded her with a phone call.

Lu Lingyue didn't dare delay, knowing that if she didn't pick up soon, Lu Xiaoxue would probably come up with some trick to torment her again!

So she quickly answered the phone.

"Lu Lingyue, do you know what time it is? It's been two whole hours since you left!"

Lu Xiaoxue's voice was indeed a bit annoyed. Lu Lingyue could almost imagine her sharpening a knife, ready to use it on her!

"I-I'll head back now, don't worry, I'm fine!"

Lu Lingyue quickly said while standing up from the bench, gathering her vegetables and preparing to leave.

"If you're not back in twenty minutes, don't blame me for doing something weird to you!"

Though Lu Xiaoxue's voice sounded light-hearted, even with a little laughter, Lu Lingyue knew she wasn't joking!

"Okay, okay, I know! The signal here is bad, I'll hang up now!"

Lu Lingyue quickly hung up the phone and turned to Xie Shuangning. "I have to go back now, I've been out too long."

Xie Shuangning quickly stood up from the bench as well, her chest heaving slightly, her purple eyes filled with reluctance.

"Are you leaving already, little girl?"

Lu Lingyue nodded, then as she ran, she turned back and called out, "I'm going now! Bye!"

"I'll walk you back..."

Xie Shuangning wanted to take a step forward, but Lu Lingyue had already run too far.

She could only watch as two silver-white pigtails shimmered under the sunlight, swaying as they disappeared into the distance.

Xie Shuangning stood there, mesmerized, until the little figure disappeared. Only then did she realize she hadn't even asked the little girl's name!

"What a shame... I hope we meet again someday..."

Xie Shuangning mumbled to herself.

But what she didn't expect was that, two hours later, she would see Lu Lingyue again.
