Chapter 1317: He Had Never Met a Girl He Liked
“This is yours!” he said calmly. His eyes flashed with a barely perceptible emotion but that moment quickly passed.
Her face was so red that it seemed like she had powdered rouge all over her face.
“Thanks…” she stammered out. She was so nervous that she couldn’t enunciate properly, so her voice sounded like it came from deep within her chest.
Then, she coughed softly.
Mo Yixuan frowned.
This was the first time he heard such a terrible sounding voice from a girl.
He watched as she lifted her hand. Her fingers seemed to be shaking and he didn’t know whether it was from nervousness or excitement.
She took her phone from him and when she did so, her fingers accidentally brushed against his. Her heart raced and her face was as red as a tomato.
“Thank you!” she thanked him once again and she finally sounded like her normal self.
Mo Yixuan’s lips curved into a small smile.
“You’re welcome!” he said calmly. Then, he walked around her and out of the track and field.
He Xiyan felt speechless.
Was he going to leave just like that?
She blushed furiously and she felt as though her brain had short-circuited. It took her awhile to process what had happened and she stood in a daze like a statue in the middle of the track and field.
She suddenly turned around and stared at his retreating back when he was five or six meters away.
“Mo…” she started to call out his name but she ultimately couldn’t bring herself to call out the final two syllables of his name.
Oh my god, did he not recognize her?
Why didn’t he exchange a few words with her before he left?

Moreover… he seemed to treat her like a complete stranger even though he had given her flowers.
Why would he do so…?
Her heart sank and she was so disappointed that she even forgot to check on the condition of her phone.
She kept blinking as she stared at his retreating back.
She was confused and disappointed.
The stark contrast in his attitude toward her made her feel like she had fallen into an ice cave.
She stood there for a long time and didn’t even react after he had left.
Mo Yixuan had already walked more than a hundred meters away from her.
He walked very quickly and soon, he was out of sight.
At the moment, he was the only person who knew how confused he felt. He had thought about giving the girl an outright rejection earlier but at the same time, he didn’t want to do that.
He felt very annoyed by his conflicting thoughts.
This was the first time he took a good look at her face and he noticed that her looks could be described as very clean and neat but he didn’t think that she would be considered a beauty nor her looks exquisite. There were a few other girls who had tried to court him and they were prettier than this girl was.
Yet, for some reason, he couldn’t bring himself to turn her down just as he had done to the girls who had taken the initiative to confess to him.
He threw himself on his sofa after he returned to his apartment and stared up at the ceiling.
He had thought about finding a girlfriend but after all these years, he had not met anyone who had caught his eye and he wasn’t interested in the girls who expressed their interest in him.
He didn’t even know what kind of girls he liked, neither had he ever taken the initiative to court a girl.
He only knew that he wanted to find someone who would love him wholeheartedly, and who was preferably a beautiful and well-behaved girl.
