BXBX NOVEL Chapter 175 His Behaviour
**************
CHAPTER 175
Liu Xueyi did not bother to wait for Gao Yuemi and began walking over to the arcade payment point, leaving her to chase on her own.
For one thing, Andromeda kept a close look at the duo till they disappeared past the door, away from her and Xiao Xin's sight.
Once out of sight, the displeasure and irritation on her face became visible as she was too annoyed to hide them instead.
She hated the fact that someone else was tagging on him, most especially in her presence.
It was one thing for Gao Yuemi not to know that they were dating and another to know but still act nonchalantly to her supposed feelings.
Andromeda let out a heavy sigh and then returned her head in the direction of Xiao Xin only to be met with the all-knowing look from the young Liu princess.
"No need to be worried." She pressed her lips together into a tightlipped smile.
"Huh?"
Andromeda watched in shock as the corners of her lips tugged upwards, revealing a bit of tooth from the dashing beauty before her.
"I can tell he really likes you. I mean, he loves you," Xiao Xin corrected. "You do not see Xueyi going out of his way to do this for a lady."
"Do what?" Andromeda blinked in confusion, "he's literally not being mindful of me," she corrected but Xiao Xin only shrugged with a playful glint casting itself in her mischievous eyes.
"That's what you think. My brother is not a public person when it comes to his relationship and love life but he did not mind kissing you outside yesterday."
Instantly, Andromeda felt her cheeks begin to heat up the second her mind trailed off to the previous day.
Everything felt so real like it was happening before her eyes once more.
However, she wished to bask in the warmth of his arms and enjoy his kisses, she knew this was not the right time.
"I actually ship you two together," Xiao Xin's voice broke her out once more.
"You what?"
"Yes, you heard me. I prefer you to Gao Yuemi or any other girl hovering over his life so far."
All Andromeda could do in response to the awkward situation Xiao Xin's words had placed her on was stare at her in confusion.
"I support his relationship with you," Xiao Xin continued.
"Wait, wait, wait. Hold up," Andromeda quickly cut her short, lifting her palms a bit to stop her.
Arching up her brows, Xiao Xin inquired, "Yes?"
"You…" the words Andromeda wished to speak remained hung on her lips as she stared at Xiao Xin. "How do you know so much?"
"Easy. Recall what I told you when we first met at the airport yesterday?"
"Umm yeah…" From the way her voice trailed off, Xiao Xin knew she may have forgotten or wasn't recalling the entire words being spoken.
"Fine. I would help," Xiao Xin exhaled as she leaned back against the table. "Nothing gets past me. I may ignore Liu's corporation gossip and news but when it comes to Liu Xueyi, I would always have an idea."
"Yeah, you said so."
"He's my brother. Don't get me wrong though, I'm not stalking him or anything. I am actually concerned about the girls who enter his life. I do not want anyone hurting him."
"I understand."
"Great and that is why I said, I prefer you to Gao Yuemi."
"Why?" Andromeda immediately countered, pulling her brows together as she studied the young lady before her.
Even though the words were pleasant to the ears, Andromeda was still skeptical.
After what happened with Wu Bai and herself, it became hard to trust easily.
"You see, Xueyi had always taken her like a younger sister and even when she confessed her love for him back then, he turned her down. Sadly, she never gave up and kept on chasing after him."
"Wait, since then? Since when?" Andromeda's eyes went wide as she questioned Xiao Xin to figure out just how long Gao Yuemi had been crushing on Xueyi.
"Since our time in high school. It's just been like that."
"I see."
"Yeah. Anyways, although he seems a bit off today, do not worry. Perhaps his week had really stressed him. I know my brother cherishes you."
"Did he say something?"
"No. He refused to speak about you to me. He has always been secretive. That's why I was so shocked he came out on social media and even kissed you before me."
At this point, Andromeda could no longer hide it as she averted her gaze from Xiao Xin, hiding her blush in the process.
"It's okay to feel shy. I'd take it as you not liking my brother if that didn't affect you a bit at the least."
"Naughty. Now I wonder, between yourself and your brother, who is the naughtiest?"
"I am a good girl but from your words, I can see my brother has been doing things."

Andromeda's eyes flew open once more. She had not intended to reveal anything but the cunny Xiao Xin found a way to get it out from her.
"Hahahaaa…"
"Cut it out. Nothing happened. I don't want you to start thinking…"
"Then how about the video that was leaked?"

For the umpteenth time that day, Andromeda got shocked by the words coming out of Xiao Xin's mouth.
And each one left her speechless again and again.
Judging from what she said there was no way she could deny the words anymore. Considering if she did, she would expose the fact that she and Xueyi were not really dating.
"No need to be shy. You are a grown lady."
Andromeda lifted her head after some seconds and was about to respond when she felt a presence behind her.
How he had gotten there without her hearing him or his busybody friend tagging along was completely foreign to Andromeda. A
Regardless, she kept her lips sealed and waited for him.
"Happy you two are catching up but let's head in."
"Hey, Xueyi. Sure, let's go, we were done anyway," Xiao Xin announced and rose to her feet. "I would leave you to your girlfriend."
She winked at Andromeda, picked up her purse and walked off, leaving the duo to their devices.
"Come on."
He did not wait for her and started to walk away, leaving Andromeda to tail behind.
Once more Andromeda took note of the awkward behavior he gave to her but kept silent.
Not long they were given their cards and each one of them moved around to check out the games.
At first Andromeda wished to go with Liu Xueyi but before she could pull Liu Xueyi to her directly to try out the basketball with her, Gao Yuemi got to him first.
In the first game, she let them be and played with Xiao Xin. The second was the same thing.
Before long, any game Go Yuemi wished to play, it was Liu Xueyi who accompanied her.
It was only at one time when he and Goa Yuemi finished their game on time and he went to watch the dancing game that both ladies engaged themselves in that he actually spent a bit of time with her.
Even that, Andromeda could not consider it as spending time with her.
Soon 3 hours blew past in a jiffy and all Andromeda got from him was his presence in ignoring her to hang out with Gao Yuemi.
By now not only was she sad about his actions, but she was also furious with the clingy Gao Yuemi. All through their game time, Xiao Xin noticed what was going on as well.
She could not help wondering if they had some quarrel at one point in time when she was not looking or if it was from when they were coming.
No matter how hard Xiao Xin thought about it, she could not put her finger on it.
In the end, she decided to question Andromeda about the two of them.
It was obvious on both of their faces that something was off.
And even when Liu Xueyi came up to Andromeda, she took the next path and walked off before he could get to where she was.
She was done playing chase with him and his newly found female companion.
However, while the duo fought silently, Gao Yuemi latched onto Liu Xueyi some more, shamelessly.
Left to her, it was a case of her finally getting the attention of the one she loved and cared about. Whether Andromeda was happy or not, she could barely care.
She knew there was a high chance of her not getting such an opportunity again. Thus she gave this her all.
"Andromeda, can I ask you a question?" Xiao Xin asked.
She maintained her charming innocent smile while bridging the gap between them.
"Sure."
"Okay, umm what's going on with my brother and yourself?"
"Nothing."
"Nothing?"
"Yes. Why? What do you mean?"
"Nothing. You two just seem so weird today. At one point you try to reach out to each other but then you two go back to being like complete strangers."
"I am just saying."
"Oh. Well, he found himself a nice playmate. I would just watch." Her face contorted into a frown, giving such a reply.
She wasted no time in peeling her gaze away lest she cried at the realization of what Liu Xueyi was doing to her.
